c658 The Golden List of Wealth Freedom

“Mr. Wei, Mr. Wei…”

A soft call pulled Wei Kang back from his thoughts.

He looked up at Li Zhong, and explained with a smile: “Sorry, I was thinking too much just now, and I was absorbed in it for a while.”

“Then what should we do about the situation in this report?” Li Zhong asked cautiously with a worried expression on his face.

Wei Kang collected himself, looked at him, and said calmly.

“This is not a problem you can solve. Anticancer drugs need to continue to be developed, improved to four or five generations, and even find new targets.”

“Cancer is a product of biological evolution out of control, a by-product of aging, and an instinct imprinted in the genome.”

“Oncogenes are derived from the human genome, which is innately loaded with oncogenes waiting to be activated, so our genes are destined to carry this deadly burden.”

“As long as you understand the birth and struggle process of a cancer cell, you can understand that what humans can do is really limited.”

His deep eyes passed over Li Zhong’s figure, and he looked out of the window in the distance, and a prototype of a story emerged in his mind.

That’s a story about cancer cells.

“Let’s let our imagination fly and bring our thoughts back to 30 years ago.”

A smile appeared on Wei Kang’s face, as if he was talking about an ordinary daily life.

“Let’s say there’s a normal cell that’s sitting quietly in the left lung of a 30-year-old firefighter, living a life of its own accord.”

“One day, a small piece of asbestos debris from firefighting equipment drifted into the vicinity of this cell through the air.”

“The firefighter’s body had an inflammatory response to the asbestos fragments, and the cells around the fragments began to divide like crazy, like a small wound trying to heal.”

“A small clump of cells splits off from the original cell, and one of the cells with an unexpected mutation in the ras proto-oncogene grows faster than its neighbors and forms a new clump of cells.”

“This clump of cells now becomes the original progenitor of cancer cells.”

“Ten years later, the firefighter is 40 years old, and he still has the habit of smoking like a normal person.”

“When the cancer-causing chemicals in the tar reached the edge of the lung, they blended in with this small group of ras mutant cells, and one of the cells had a second mutation in its gene, activating a second proto-oncogene.”

“Time flies, another 10 years later, the firefighter is 50 years old.”

“One of the cells in the cell cluster with the secondary mutation acquired another mutation after being baptized by X-rays in multiple medical examinations.”

“This time the mutation inactivated a tumor suppressor gene, but because the cell carried two copies, the mutation had little effect.”

“However, in the second year, another mutation occurred that inactivated both copies of the tumor suppressor gene.”

“So far, a deadly catastrophe has begun.”

“These quadruple-mutated cells started multiplying at an unreasonable rate.”

“They keep growing, keep mutating, and activate various pathways in the human body. A gene that enhances mobility in cells is activated and travels through the lung tissue and into the blood.”

“It has acquired the ability to survive in the bone, travel to the pelvis with blood flow, travel to other parts of the body, settle there, and continue to grow.”

“At this point, the firefighter felt something was wrong, he was experiencing chest pains, shortness of breath, and his symptoms were getting worse.”

“He came to the hospital and had a CT scan. The results showed that there was a tumor in the lung, and it was already at an advanced stage and could not be surgically removed.”

“A subsequent bone scan showed the tumor had metastasized to the ribs and pelvis, and the patient was started on medication.”

“After repeated bombardment with multiple cytotoxic drugs, a certain tumor cell acquired another drug-resistant mutation.”

“Seven months after the diagnosis, the tumor in the patient’s body had spread throughout the body.”

“Under the influence of anesthesia, he fell into a deep coma on a hospital bed, and finally died at the age of 60, accompanied by his family.”

“And at this point, the culprit, that little piece of asbestos that caused all the tragedy, was still at the edge of his lung.”

“This is the struggle history of a cancer cell. It evolves continuously in the human body. From an ordinary cell, by chance, patience, persistence, and unremitting efforts, it finally evolves into a super cell, possessing the super ethics of unlimited reproduction, and finally Destroyed the world, that is, the human body.”

“This story looks so familiar, hehe.”

Having said that, Wei Kang’s eyes narrowed, and he glanced at the lush greenery outside the window.

On the few branches there, the leaves had already turned yellow, and when a gust of wind blew by, they whirled and fell down.

Immediately, he felt something in his heart, paused for a few seconds, and refocused his eyes on Li Zhong.

“For cancer, the only thing we can do is to eliminate one when we find it, and try to let the patient live for a few more years.”

“Fortunately, with our efforts, cancer has become a preventable and curable chronic disease, no different from heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and the like.

“That’s the best we can do right now.”

“Birth, old age, sickness and death, sewing and mending, that’s probably the case.”

“To get to the true origin, we can only open the Pandora’s box of genes. At that time, it will be difficult to say whether it is an angel or a devil that comes out of it.”

“Let’s leave this matter as it is. Everything needs to be considered in the long run.”

Li Zhong remained silent from the beginning to the end, and after listening to the story quietly, he also felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

He could only nod his head, and then backed out silently.

Wei Kang watched him leave, got up and went to the window, stretched out his hand, feeling the coolness brought by the air current, as if there was a river of time flowing in his hand, and there was a faint feeling in his heart.

“It’s been exactly ten years since the system was obtained, and Sanqing has grown from an unknown junior to a monstrous giant.”

“It started with anticancer drugs and ended with organ transplantation. After unceasingly cracking the secrets of life one by one, it went round and round and returned to the original point.”

“History is a reincarnation, and cancer has never been far away, never eliminated, and has always existed in the depths of our genes.”

Thinking of this, he turned around resolutely, walked to the writing board in the corner, and began to write furiously.

On the empty whiteboard, two large black characters of “cancer” soon appeared, firmly occupying the center of the entire whiteboard.

Then, he waved his hand again and drew a big circle on the two characters.

“The next journey will start from here.”

*****

Hangzhou, in a community.

Zhang Jun hurriedly changed his son into a diaper and put it on the bed.

Seeing his baby holding a toy in his hand and laughing so hard, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and took out his phone to look at it.

Since he had a child at home, the time he spent on checking his mobile phone has dropped sharply every day. He can only take time to watch the news while the child is having fun, and keep in touch with the outside world.

No, as soon as he turned on the phone, Zhang Jun immediately let out a scream.

“Fuck, is today the day when the Weiss Science Award is announced?”

“Time flies too fast!”

“Let me see who can win the award. 20 million is not a small amount. It is a large amount of money that can directly make people free in first-tier cities. I don’t know who are the lucky ones.”

Zhang Jun opened Langbo at the speed of light, clicked on the hot search of # Wei Shi Science Award # , and browsed carefully.

“The Biology Award was awarded to organ implantation technology. There are two winners, one named Huang Qin and the other named Ding Mian, both of whom are in charge of Sanqing’s laboratory.”

“This award should indeed be given to them. The two big brothers absolutely deserve it.”

“What about the medical award? Oh, it was actually awarded to the brain nerve regeneration factor. There is only one winner, Chen Yiqing.”

“Hiss, his resume is awesome. He has cured Alzheimer’s disease, and there are so many vegetative states. He has saved countless lives.”

“By the way.” Seeing this, Zhang Jun suddenly remembered: “Isn’t this the big guy who caused Sanqing to be blocked by the Nobel Prize?”

“Because the brain nerve regeneration factor was not exported overseas, and then offended the Nobel Prize Committee, he could have won the Nobel Prize, but the Nobel Prize gang didn’t know what to do, so they refused to give it to him. After that, there is no future.”

“This boss has a lot of qualifications and is also a laboratory director. He is definitely not short of money. Most likely it is to compensate for his loss of honor.”

“It’s amazing, it’s really enviable to enjoy the 20 million grand prize alone.”

“As expected of Sanqing, the winners of the Biology Award and Medicine Award are all from our own people, and they are the kind that have no controversy, not even competitors. I will only say the word awesome once.”

“There is no suspense for these two awards. The other three awards must be outsiders. It is impossible for them to belong to Sanqing.”

Zhang Jun continued to read, and when he saw the winners of the Physics Prize and Chemistry Prize, he was so excited that he almost jumped up.

“Damn, I guessed correctly. Superconducting at room temperature!”

Since the birth of LK-99 three years ago, which shocked the world, the cutting-edge physical concept of room temperature superconductivity has entered the public.

Not only did it become popular back then, but the term alchemy master has also become popular. Up to now, every year, many alchemists are active on the Internet media, or live broadcast or post videos, showing off their excellent alchemy skills.

However, in the first year, only super antimagnetic materials were refined, and no real zero resistance was achieved.

So there is no confirmation of the phenomenon of room temperature superconductivity, let alone theory.

In the next few years, various papers continued to blow out like a volcanic eruption, and materials students won the best era and jumped out of the tiankeng.

Now three of the four major tiankeng majors have escaped from the pit, and the remaining one, environmental studies, is still stuck at the bottom of the pit alone, and there is no hope of getting out of the pit for the time being.

Under the insistence of the three leaders of physics + chemistry + materials, after three years of hard work, room temperature superconductivity finally made a qualitative breakthrough.

In the first half of the year, an employee of a Huaxia material company finally refined a room temperature superconductor.

Since then, a university in Eagle Country has perfected the specific theory.

Finally, a scientific research institution in Huaxia developed a mass-production thin-film technology.

In short, the superconducting feast in the first half of the year was as chaotic and hot as it was three years ago.

The Weishi Science Award and the Physics Award are shared by the two discoverers of the Bang Country and the two masters of the Eagle Country who have perfected the theory.

The Chemistry Prize was awarded to three researchers from Huaxia.

Two of them were originally low-level employees of the company, and they had no relationship with patents. The superconductors they practiced directly belonged to the company. Apart from the hundreds of thousands of bonuses issued by the company, the economic benefits were not high.

The two hard-working workers suddenly received a windfall of 7 million yuan each. They were so overjoyed that they almost had a heart attack.

The main thing is that this money belongs to the recognition and reward of their talents, and is not linked to patents, so the company can’t share it at all, and it all falls into the personal pocket.

As for the scientific research institution, the person who developed the mass production technology is a quasi-academician-level leader. He is not short of money, but he is very happy to receive an honor.

“That’s right, that’s right. Mr. Wei is really kind. He even paid taxes for the winners, and all the money he gave them was after-tax income.”

“Hey, it should be that Mr. Wei has other connections, so he can exempt them from part of the tax. It’s just that it’s cheaper for the overseas winners.”

Zhang Jun was very excited when he saw it: “The other winners are big bosses and don’t lack money. For them, this award can only be regarded as icing on the cake.”

“Only those two working dogs who are so lucky and successful in alchemy are the luckiest. Now that they have a reputation and money, they are simply winners in life.”

He immediately drooled enviously and jealously.

Going on to look at the mathematics award, the moment the name appeared, Zhang Jun’s expression instantly became bewildered.

“Tang Yi? Who is this person?”

“Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture? What the hell is this?”

“Generalized Riemannian function – the abnormal zero point problem of L function?”

“Why can’t I understand these characters? I can recognize each character separately, but I don’t know what it means when they are put together.”

His eyes gradually focused on the words “Riemann function”, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he couldn’t help but exclaimed.

“Fuck, has the Riemann Hypothesis been proven?”

Zhang Jun has never heard of the zero-point conjecture, but the Riemann conjecture is well-known, and it can often be seen even in online novels, so when he saw the word Riemann, he immediately thought of the latter.

However, he was immediately slapped in the face by the speed of light, confirming the truth of his mathematical illiteracy.

After some Baidu, and another wave of high-intensity surfing, Zhang Jun finally figured it out.

Although the zero-point conjecture belongs to the Riemann function and can be considered as difficult as the Riemann conjecture level, it is not the same thing as the Riemann conjecture at all.

Mistaking the zero-point conjecture for the Riemann conjecture, I was really blind.

But to him, it doesn’t make much difference. Anyway, no matter what guesses, he can’t understand a lot of mathematical formulas, as long as he knows that they are very powerful.

Not long after, when the background of the award winner Tang Yi was revealed by others, the legendary experience that could be called deviant immediately attracted his attention.

“Fuck, this man is simply a sweeping monk in the mathematics world!”

“The ups and downs and twists and turns of the experience are comparable to novels.”

“The 985 academic masters were reduced to gnawing on the old, and they were kicked out of the school when they were studying for a Ph. D. They were nearly 50 years old when they solved the world’s problems, and a paper caused a sensation all over the world.”

“Tsk tsk, it’s full of elements, what kind of useless counterattack Shuangwen’s life!”

When Zhang Jun saw the title of the media report, his eyes lit up immediately, and he couldn’t wait to read it. (end of this chapter)
