Although industrial problems are the first priority, they require a lot of time to advance. Moreover, the current industrial difficulty is not high, and there is a dedicated team of experts responsible for it, so Yu Yifeng simply shifted his work focus to other aspects.
For example, population issues, biological issues, and issues related to "Aviator 2" are what he is more interested in.
In a small population meeting, he said: "We must develop the population to five million as soon as possible, because there are only six million copies of the perfect nutrient..."
"Perfection is really too important. This substance can promote the overall evolution of the human body and also involves issues such as life span. If there is unfair distribution, there will definitely be huge social conflicts. So, let's just get it together when the time comes.
Everything has been converted..."
Based on the current level of human science and technology, the upper limit of the life span of a single individual is about 300-400 years old. Many first-generation scientists are already approaching this limit. In order to prevent these precious scientific research experts from dying of old age, they can only use perfection to transform into "super beings".
Humanity".
In this way, the lifespan of the older generation can be increased ten times, and they will become smarter and stronger.
"A high-quality, long-lived population of five million is actually not bad. In the future, we will only rely on slow and natural growth. Do you have any objections to this future population policy?" Yu Yifeng looked a little serious in the conference room.
said.
This is the population policy they set from the beginning, but due to the small population and slow reproduction rate, it has never been implemented. Now it has been proposed again.
"I have a question. If superhumans can't reproduce...if they are all converted with perfection, when everyone's life span is up in a few thousand years, wouldn't the human race be inexplicably extinct? Could it be based on cloning from the gene pool?"
Security Minister Xu Yunjin frowned and said, facing this mysterious substance, he was still a little worried: "Have you considered this issue? Also, will superhumans and humans be reproductively isolated and become two
Different species?”
One of the biologists shook his head: "Don't worry, the species must be the same. There is no reproductive isolation. We have already studied it clearly. Moreover... after transforming into a super human, it does not mean that you cannot have children, but that your reproductive ability changes."
Very low..."
"Although Captain Yu and his wife still haven't given birth to a child...but other experimental subjects have successfully become pregnant...well, there are two successful examples, which also allows us to dispel some of our doubts."
"...are there any examples of successful pregnancies?" Xu Yunjin asked doubtfully. This was the first time he had heard of it.
The biologist replied with a smile: "A super little black dog has been born successfully, a descendant of the big black dog. After testing, this puppy has been smart since he was a child and has a good physique. His lifespan and intelligence are both
The overall rating of the category is similar to that of Big Black Dog.”
"We suspect that it was a super individual when it was born."
"Another successful example is our human pregnant woman, who is still in the tenth month of pregnancy... she will be born in a few months. The fetus will develop normally and there should be no major problems during this period."
"So, we believe that superhumans can also have children."
This also allowed Xu Yunjin to dispel his doubts a little. If he could continue to reproduce, human beings would not perish inexplicably...
Yu Yifeng said: "Having said that, being able to reproduce is not enough. If the fertility rate is too low, it will not work. If the entire society only gives birth to one or two babies throughout the year, we will still be at risk of extinction."
"So, the most important life technology cannot be left behind. We must focus on studying the principles of hormone modification to improve the success rate of conception...
"Is there any progress on this?"
As a beneficiary and... victim of Perfection, he has no children yet, so he pays special attention to this technology. Why can't he give birth to children? I don't know?
Faced with this problem, biologist Dr. Kelly organized her language and said: "Now, there are more samples that have successfully received perfect hormones, and it is not as difficult as before. We found that superhumans have low reproductive capacity.
Because of……"
"Um...just a guess...with no real basis." She said hesitantly.
"Is it just a guess? Let's talk about it?" Yu Yifeng asked.
Kelly paused for a moment: "We guess...the individual transformed by perfection...the combined fertilized egg has a certain ability to self-select!"
She was afraid that others would not understand, so she gestured with her hands and said: "If the genes in it are not good enough, the fertilized egg will not be able to divide and differentiate, which will eventually lead to death! Only a relatively perfect fertilized egg can grow into an adult!"
Her tone darkened, and she didn't know whether she was talking about a good thing or a bad thing: "...So, every child bred by super humans is very healthy, and... has a high probability of being a genius... very smart
That kind of thing.”
"Perhaps for this reason, the reproductive capacity is very low. Because imperfect fertilized eggs cannot divide and differentiate... and the vast majority of fertilized eggs are not perfect."
"This is a guess we made a few days ago. It is too weird and unscientific. But according to various data analysis, it seems to be the case... These two successful examples basically have no dominant genes.
Defects, the development of each part is perfect..." She finished this series in one breath.
silence……
A long silence...
"Genius, every child is a genius?!"
After hearing these words, Yu Yifeng felt the most incredible. He turned around and saw Xu Yunjin, who was also in a daze for a while.
Almost everyone was stunned. Several experts had enlarged mouths and were in a state of brain stasis.
Then, thinking of the truth behind it, Yu Yifeng sweated on his back and the hairs all over his body stood up.
After the initial ecstasy, there was an unparalleled trembling...
Even...horrifying!
Humanity has witnessed too many miracles caused by science, but this is the first time I heard of something like this that can forcefully screen future generations... Especially, its mechanism is completely unknown to humans.
Perfect element actually involves future generations?! Why?
This forced screening method can screen human genes, and it starts from the level of fertilized eggs... Such science... is simply ten thousand times more powerful than eugenics!
It took a while for people to recover from the shock and confusion, and everyone was shocked and speechless.
"...What are the screening criteria?" Yu Yifeng asked, his voice low and hoarse.
"We don't know. At least there is no genetic defect. This is the premise. There should be more stringent standards..."
The initiator, Dr. Kelly, smiled and said: "So, Captain Yu, you have never had children because of bad luck. The chromosomes and genes of the two of you should have a better composition, but they have not met. Male
There are 100 million rounds of ammunition in a day, but women only get one chance every month, so don’t miss it..."
After hearing these words, Yu Yifeng felt a little embarrassed. He and his wife were busy with work and spent less time together and more time apart. They should pay attention to this aspect.
However, the thick skin he had developed over the years prevented him from blushing even once.
He asked again: "So, based on this speculation... why was there only one successful fertilized egg test in the Earth period, and none of the others were successful? In theory, there should be more than one success among millions of tests."
Dr. Kelly replied: "Because from the current point of view, perfect hormone is more suitable for adult individuals... it is even less likely to be successful if it is used directly on fertilized eggs."
"As for why you succeeded...we don't know either."
Well, Yu Yifeng touched his nose and had nothing to say.
This kind of bold conjecture based on experimental data can't help but lead people into deeper thinking...
What seems good now may not necessarily be good in the future. People have a clear understanding of this.
After everyone used the perfect element, they gave birth to the first generation of geniuses. This sounds very good and wonderful, but what about the future?
Will these offspring have huge genetic defects and become infertile after a few generations? Will there be a lot of mental retardation due to the genetic relationship?
Gene dynamics, L4 level technology, humans only know a little bit about it, and gene dynamics cannot fully explain genes...
Yu Yifeng even wavered in his idea of "overall transformation". This kind of incomprehensible thing is really too ridiculous and confusing...
