Chapter 153 'First Generation Gene Enhancement Drug' released by mad scientist Lin Feng?
After all, one bottle of BT-002 gene medical drug costs 1000 yuan, and 1000 bottles costs million yuan.
10万瓶就是10亿元,100万瓶就是100亿元,而全球又有3900万艾滋病病人。
Even though many people cannot afford tens of thousands of dollars to treat AIDS, only half of the people can receive treatment.
If we assume that each person buys at least two and an average of three, then the total amount that can be earned is a huge sum of 5000 billion Xia Yuan.
Of course, more than half of the 5000 billion Xia yuan will have to be paid as taxes.
But no matter what, thanks to the huge profits from BT-002 genetic medical drugs, Xingtu Technology will not be short of money in the next two years.
No matter what Xingtu Technology wants to do, with hundreds of billions of Xia yuan, it has the confidence to afford it.
This is also the reason why NVIDIA and AMD are so wary of Starway Technology and are afraid that Starway Technology will enter the graphics card market.
After all, as long as you are willing to spend money on research and development, you will eventually reap rewards. As long as you spend more money, it is possible to surpass them.
……
However, when the outside world was envious of Xingtu Technology and discussing how much money Xingtu Technology could make with the BT-002 genetic medical drug.
On July 2015, 7, when the popularity of BT-6 gene medical drug and Xingtu Technology gradually weakened with the passage of time.
Lin Feng quietly released a video on the four major video websites: Bilibili, Tik Tok, YouTube, and Penguin Video, which caused huge controversy on the Internet.
For a while, some people were excited about the scientific research results in the video, while others were angry at the boldness of Xingtu Technology and Lin Feng and condemned Lin Feng.
"Hello everyone, we meet again."
In the video, Raymond Lam was greeting everyone, and there seemed to be a hint of excitement on his face, which made netizen 'Autumn Bug' very curious.
The title of the newly released video is "From now on, the era of gene editors has begun." This title is a bit confusing and I don't know what gene editors mean.
“I guess everyone is a little curious about the title of this video, wondering what gene editing means.
These gene-edited people are people whose genes have been edited. In some ways, those who receive BT-002 genetic medical drugs are also gene-edited people.
However, the changes they made to their own genes are very minor, so they are not considered true gene editors.
In my opinion, to be called a gene-edited person, the genes must at least have undergone significant changes.”
Lin Feng in the video paused for a moment when he said this, and then a term "ARHGAP11B gene fragment" appeared on the screen of the video.
"'ARHGAP11B gene fragment' has been widely circulated on the Internet, and many netizens have heard of it.
We know that this is a smart gene fragment unique to humans, we know that it is the key to humans' self-awareness, and we know that after it is transplanted into mammals, the mammals will become exceptionally smart...
According to the latest experimental analysis, we found that the 'ARHGAP11B gene fragment' of ordinary people and those super geniuses with super high IQs is indeed different.
Although the structures of the two are generally the same, there are slight differences in the details.
It proves that the reason why those super geniuses with extremely high IQs are so smart is that there are beneficial mutations in their 'ARHGAP11B gene fragment', which is why they are so smart.
This also proves that the world is indeed unfair because some people are born with smart brains.
As long as they don't waste their talents, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to surpass them.
This is a victory engraved in our genes, and this is the truth of the world."
Hearing Lin Feng's words, 'Autumn Bug' couldn't help but clench his fists, feeling quite depressed.
After all, nothing is more depressing than hearing such news, although I already know this through the heavy blows of reality. But it is really hard to accept that others are so smart because of their excellent genes.
How could those guys mutate into such excellent smart genes? Why wasn't I the one who had the smart gene fragment...
These unwillingness lingered in people's hearts, and those who watched this video felt unhappy and depressed.
In this regard, Lin Feng seemed to know how unhappy people were, and he directly announced a piece of exciting good news.
"But these super geniuses can no longer maintain their victory from genes forever, because we have the world's most powerful gene editing technology.
If we transplant their beneficial mutated ARHGAP11B smart gene fragment into another person, wouldn't we be able to have the same smart brain?"
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Autumn Bug opened his eyes wide, full of disbelief.
Today shouldn't be April Fool's Day. Is Raymond Lam crazy?
Because even though gene editing technology seems to be quite mature, humans can modify their own genes and even the genes of all things at will.
But genes are something with too many mysteries, and one small move can often affect the entire body.
If you modify a certain gene fragment, even if you are lucky enough not to cause gene collapse, there is a high possibility that unknown diseases will occur.
Therefore, when it comes to gene editing, humans are still ignorant apprentices.
Among these, it is not impossible to transplant a gene fragment from one person to another.
It can certainly be done, and current gene editing technology is mature, but the problem is that the consequences of transplantation are simply unpredictable.
Therefore, if this experiment is really carried out, it would actually be playing with one's life. Is Lin Feng really sure that he is not joking?
When netizens began to doubt, Raymond Lam in the video did not stop talking.
"There are two gene fragments that we are currently studying. The first is the ARHGAP11B smart gene fragment, and the other is the mutated erythropoietin receptor gene fragment.
This mutated erythropoietin receptor gene fragment was first discovered in 1993, and the owner of the mutated gene fragment was the Mentilanta family.
Their family members generally have a mutated erythropoietin receptor gene, which allows their bodies to produce 20% to 50% more red blood cells than normal people.
The function of red blood cells is to carry more oxygen, and human endurance is naturally closely related to oxygen.
In this case, people in this family are born with longer endurance and faster speed than ordinary people, so people in this family are born athletes.
The reason why we focus on these two gene fragments is that in order for a smart brain to function fully, it needs more oxygen.
And now, after so much research and development, we finally have scientific research results, and this scientific research result is the first generation of gene enhancement medicine!
This first-generation gene enhancement drug modifies and replaces the ARHGAP11B gene fragment and the erythropoietin receptor gene fragment of ordinary people.
This allows gene-edited people to have the same ARHGAP11B intelligence gene fragment and mutated erythropoietin receptor gene fragment as those with super high IQs. "
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Autumn Bug opened his eyes wide, full of disbelief.
Oh my God, is this true?
Is Lin Feng sure he is not joking and has really developed such a genetic enhancement drug?
Is this technology mature?
Is it too risky to modify two major gene fragments in the human body at the same time?
Instinct told 'Autumn Bugs' that such technology, while possible, was too risky and too crazy.
