Chapter 596 Creativity
"I remember it was four or a few years... the early 40s. It was like 41 years?" Xiang Shan was lost in thought.

This period of memory lacks details, but as "knowledge", he still remembers a rough idea, and can speculate a little bit about the cause and effect.

Around 40 or 41, Yawgmoth suddenly received a sum of funding from UNAIDS, the World Health Organization, and the Ministry of Health of the Republic to do genetic research on HIV.

This matter was regarded by the Ministry of Health as one of the political achievements of the year, and it was publicized in newspapers, portal websites and other places for several days.

Xiang Shan was still a little puzzled and even a little dissatisfied by this at the time.

In his opinion, at that time, the focus of Superman Enterprise should be on "the human version of genetic modification surgery".He himself has been applying with institutions such as ethics committees, hoping to get permission to start clinical trials.

Before that, the scientists of Superman Enterprise should conduct more genetic modification operations on primates, accumulate data as much as possible, prove the safety of this operation, and lay a solid foundation for further research.

The sooner this technology breaks through, the more people will benefit from it.

For this kind of thing, you must concentrate all your strength.

Moreover, it is just AIDS.This contagious disease is unable to infect baseline humans.At this point in time, even if Yawgmoth developed a treatment method, the significance would be limited.

only……

Xiang Shan recalled the story of "this little fish cares" that Tao Enhai told.

——Okay, well, there is nothing wrong with developing medical technology at any time.Maybe there are some patients in the world who are really short of this little time, just can't wait for the transformation operation of the benchmark person.

Xiang Shan could not care less about the technology to cure Acquired Immunodeficiency, because he knew very well that the disease would soon be history and could no longer infect anyone.But those who have already been infected and are racing against death can't help but care.

So he didn't criticize Yawgmoth right away, but just came to ask Yawgmoth why he did this.

Xiang Shan knew about Yawgmoth.At least at the time, Yawgmoth’s thinking should have been roughly the same as his, believing that “human genetic modification surgery can overcome all infectious diseases.”Xiang Shan couldn't figure out why he would suddenly accept this kind of project.

Yawgmoth gave the answer very simply.

"It's a deal for some bureaucratic support" "I need some money" and "I'm interested".

The first reason is quite realistic, but it is not very like Yawgmoth's usual style.Xiang Shan was really surprised that Yawgmoth could have such awareness.

In his opinion, the third element of "I'm interested" may be a little bit more.

However, Xiang Shan still warned Yawgmoth, asking him to "specialize the funds for exclusive use", not to transfer funds from one project to another project privately, and even if he wanted to, he had to do so on a public basis.

Yawgmoth nodded well.

So, Xiang Shan put the matter behind him.

After a few months, the project under Yawgmoth's name successfully produced the first batch of papers.Xiang Shan also read it, and it was a well-regulated study.

After a while, during the chat, he talked about this matter with Nia Guti.

That night, Xiang Shan received a call from Niya Guti.Nia Guti believes that Yawgmoth may have ulterior motives for taking over those projects.

Yawgmoth's research project has the potential to "alter HIV and turn it into another function".

In addition, he has made great efforts to "reduce toxicity".

Xiang Shan didn't care.If Yawgmoth can make a new generation of vaccines, it can be regarded as an account to investors.

But Nia Guti said another possibility.

Yawgmoth may have been planning to use HIV on himself.

Because in some laboratories of the Superman Enterprise, there is also a plan to "destroy the primate immune system with HIV".Although this practice is rare, there have been sporadic cases in the past.

And "destroying the immune system" is the first step in the basic human genetic modification operation.

Xiang Shan was taken aback.He just thinks this is too nonsense. At this stage, AIDS is still a disease that is difficult to cure and has a high risk.

but……

——As long as the operation is completed...

Nia Guti then asked: "How long has it been since Yog showed up in Beiping?"

This question frightened Xiang Shan.

Thinking about it carefully, since that conversation, Xiang Shan has never met Yawgmoth offline, and chatted online a few times, and he can't see what's wrong with Yawgmoth.

But... if...

Xiang Shan immediately woke up Zhu Xinyu, and asked Zhu Xinyu to help him find out the current location of Yawgmoth.

Then Zhu Xinyu was surprised to find that Yawgmoth actually used multiple springboards to disguise his position when communicating with company members.

Xiang Shan immediately realized that something was wrong.

By the time they found Yawgmoth, Yawgmoth had injected himself with modified HIV and started the first stage of genetic modification.

This process is already difficult to reverse.

Yawgmoth was not doing well due to his own immune response.Xiang Shan planned to send him to the hospital.But Yawgmoth said that he does not want hospitals, especially private hospitals, to share the most important achievements of his life.He would rather die.

In desperation, Xiang Shan directly spent money to recruit a mature nursing team from the world's top hospitals.

When planning to conduct human clinical trials, Xiang Shan had already contacted the Mayo Hospital team and prepared for future experiments, but now he is still confirming his intentions, and only a few have entered the stage of "negotiating prices" .

But after this incident, Xiang Shan didn't cut the price, and directly came to a "super double", forcibly poaching a team.

But Yawgmoth's condition was still getting worse.He fell into a coma amidst a persistent high fever.

Physicians used physical methods to cool Yawgmoth, but this was not feasible.

The complexity of the human central nervous system crushes all other primate species.

It is precisely because of this that the system is even more fragile.

In follow-up experiments, it has been confirmed that the most common cause of death in primate genetic modification surgery is "too slow transformation of the nervous system".

Humans have this problem almost [-] percent of the time.

The nervous system must first begin to transform.

But the nervous system is not divided, so its transformation speed is the slowest in the whole body.

Not to mention that it is not easy for viruses to enter the nervous system.

At this time, Comrade Chen Feng proposed an idea.

Use a virus that can quickly infect the nervous system to carry those gene fragments, so that the transformation of the nervous system can be accelerated and it can withstand high temperatures.

That is...

rabies.
