Chapter 1109： The eternal topic of mankind

Dunn's puzzled expression did not escape the eyes of the two old guys.

Redstone seemed to have forgotten the conflicts he had with Dunn in the past, or he was now facing a very important decision, so important that he could ignore the grievances between him and Dunn.

"This is actually a medical project." Lei Shidong pulled Dunn to sit down.

"Medical program?"

Dunn's eyes widened, and he was even more surprised.

What's the meaning?

Everyone is playing in the media and entertainment circles. The three giants meet, but they want to discuss medical projects?

Invest to make money?

What are you doing!

Murdoch hurriedly said: "Don't get me wrong, this is not a commercial project, but a draft of a university laboratory that is in the conception stage."

Dunn frowned, "what's the matter?"

Lei Shidong said: "You know, I graduated from Harvard. This year, I was also invited to attend Harvard's graduation ceremony. Although I didn't speak to the children on the stage, I also participated in some important activities officially organized by Harvard. David Sinclair, a professor of medicine, I talked to him for a few words, probably... I remember he only spoke for 20 seconds, and he described his project idea once, and he was very impressed."

Dunn gave him a deep look.

Although this Mr. Redstone is his defeated general, he is still a big boss in the United States. To be able to shake him deeply is undoubtedly an important project.

Lei Shidong went on to say: "His project is really... really incredible. Once successful, it is likely to change the course of human life and the status quo of the world's existence. I'm very excited, but I'm not sure. It just so happens that Xin Professor Clare is an Australian."

Murdoch is also Australian.

Whether an entrepreneurial project will work or not, the first thing to look at is not whether the project itself is good enough, but whether the entrepreneur can do it.

Murdoch must be the best person to check the background of Professor David Sinclair.

The news market in Australia is almost entirely dominated by Murdoch.

At this time, Murdoch added: "I investigated him for two weeks and was a genius. As early as more than ten years ago, he was working in the laboratory of the famous biologist Cynthia Kenyon, and the experiment verified Single gene mutation... well, I don't know the exact word, but it is a major discovery of human DNA sequence. At the time, he was only 22 years old, and he won... uh, a very authoritative medical award."

The professionalism of the medical industry is too strong, and there are many proper nouns that Murdoch cannot explain at all.

But Dunn understands the specific meaning. This Professor David Sinclair from Harvard Medical School is a genius!

Murdoch said: "There is nothing wrong with this Sinclair professor in terms of his conduct and past experience."

Redstone added: "At the age of 30, he was hired by Harvard Medical School as a professor, yes, the year your girlfriend went to Harvard. In 2004... that is, last year, he accepted the philanthropist Paul Green's $5 million free donation to have his own medical research laboratory. However, his project is really too... great, this is almost an eternal topic of human beings. $5 million is simply not enough."

Dunn asked: "The school doesn't provide funds?"

Lei Shidong: "Even Harvard can't afford such a big project."

Tang En pondered for a while, and asked directly: "What kind of project is it? I know it's a medical direction, but which field is it specifically? Is it related to the DNA sequence of the human body?"

Lei Shidong said solemnly: "It is true, but it is not a simple scientific research project. Once successful, it will have very important practical significance!"

"What's the point?"

"Extend life!"

"boom!"

Tang En's mind was buzzing, and he, who was originally annoyed and irritable, suddenly lost all grievances in his heart, and his spirit suddenly became tense, and he sat up straight.

Extend life!

This is indeed an eternal topic of transcendence for human beings!

It is so, it is so!

No wonder Murdoch and Redstone, the two old guys, got together and used all kinds of exaggerated and solemn tones to describe this matter.

At their age, work, career, wealth and family don't really matter anymore.

The most important thing is to prolong life, to live a few more years!

In fact, Tang En also understands that this kind of old super-rich will definitely carry out some life-extending behaviors secretly.

Such as the current more popular exchange transfusion therapy. There is also a more **** way, you can replace the entire internal organs of the body.

For example, David Rockefeller, the patriarch of the Rockefeller family, has already had five hearts replaced, and is currently planning to replace the sixth.

Another example is Hugh Hefner, the founder of "Playboy", who will soon be 80 years old. He is still as strong as a young man. Every day... he has to sleep with 7 women!

Although he said that he is too old and unable to do what he wants, it should be enough when he is 80 years old, and it is appropriate to reduce the number of women to 3-4, but this is shocking enough.

This combat power is stronger than Dunn!

Is this something normal people can do?

There must be the support of clever medical means behind this!

Apple's Steve Jobs was diagnosed last year with pancreatic cancer.

What is pancreatic cancer? This is the most terrifying type of cancer!

People diagnosed with pancreatic cancer will die within 9 months!

However, 9 months have already passed.

Jobs teamed up with top institutions such as Harvard University, MIT, and Stanford University to sequence his own whole genome. He went to Switzerland to undergo the most advanced fetal receptor radioisotope treatment. The cancer was almost cured, and even chemotherapy was not needed. . If it is repeated in the future, liver replacement can also be performed, as well as a variety of advanced backup plans.

Living for another seven or eight years is not a problem, and it is a very high-quality life.

This is impossible for ordinary people.

Wealth can't buy life, but wealth can prolong life. This is the consensus of today's medical community.

Murdoch and Redstone are both in their 70s and 80s. According to the logic of normal people, they should have retired long ago. Because at this age, people are too old to control the company. There are also many world-class billionaires, such as Li Chaoren and Buffett, who can still maintain their shrewdness and business sensitivity when they are in their nineties. It is unimaginable that there must be medical assistance behind them.

Dunn is still very young, and his physical condition is very good. He does not need external medical means to maintain his vitality and energy.

However, everyone has an old day.

Really waiting for that day, just like Murdoch and Redstone, the meaning of more money and less money is not much, and prolonging life and living longer is the pursuit.

Tang En took a deep breath, his eyes burning, "You mean... this is a medical program that may prolong life?"

Lei Shidong nodded solemnly, "Because of the lack of funds, this project is still in the testing stage of cell tissue and has not entered the real drug development. I don't know the specific principle, but generally there will be billions of dollars in human life. While maintaining the normal operation of the body, various problems will continue to occur. When the cell problems accumulate to a certain level, the body will not be able to repair the damage and eventually become exhausted. Professor Sinclair's research found that there is a A kind of enzyme, its concentration affects the aging of cells. When the concentration decreases, it accelerates the aging of cells; when the concentration is stable, it maintains normal cell function. If this enzyme is taken as a drug and kept stable, it can greatly delay human aging. !even……"

"Even what?"

"Even humans may live to be 150 years old!"

Dunn was stunned.

OMG!

With the current medical technology, as long as the financial resources are sufficient, and there is no extreme serious behavior such as drugs and alcohol that endanger the body, it is not a dream to live to the age of 90 or 100.

But 150 years old is too exaggerated.

It's really against the sky!

When Dunn is 150 years old... that's 100 years later.

At that time, with the further development of science and technology and the further improvement of the medical level, perhaps immortality is not an illusion!

"is this real?"

Dunn's heart was beating wildly, it was unbelievable.

This is really mysterious.

When it comes to this topic, he, like Murdoch and Redstone, completely forgets the conflicts that have occurred in the past few years.

When it comes to prolonging life, everyone has a very consistent goal.

Lei Shidong shook his head, "I don't know!"

Dunn couldn't help laughing, "don't know?"

Murdoch said: "I really don't know, this kind of thing... After all, it's too shocking. We don't understand medicine, but I have consulted a lot of medical doctors. Some people support it, some people oppose it, and there are different opinions."

Tang En took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "It's really surprising."

"Yeah, until today, I still can't believe it." Lei Shidong echoed, "Tang En, you have to make up your mind about this matter."

"Ah? Me?" Dunn was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"

Murdoch said: "The survey results show that in the United States, the time to develop a new drug is 10 to 15 years, and the average cost is 500 million US dollars. If it is this magic anti-aging drug ... I am afraid it will be even more expensive. Moreover, it was only a research laboratory at Harvard Medical School, and it also needed the support of pharmaceutical companies.”

Yes, investing costs money.

Especially this kind of elixir, the price is definitely higher.

$1 billion may not do it!

This is different from investing in other industries.

Even the Silicon Valley high-tech industry with the highest investment risk is supported by solid data and industry scale. It is completely different to invest in drugs, and the process is at a loss The results are unpredictable. Many times, drug research and development fails, and it is not known where the failure is.

In the United States, it takes an average of 200 pharmaceutical research and development projects to succeed 1.

Chances are too low!

Tang En said with a wry smile, "I don't understand medical treatment either!"

Lei Shidong said: "But you have a good eye, don't you? We have seen your performance in the past few years. I have consulted many medical experts for this project. Some people say yes, some say no, they are all Bullshit. We two old guys can't figure out the way, but I feel...you can definitely make the best choice."

"I?"

Dunn was a little dazed.
