Two weeks later.
When James Watson slowly opened his eyes, he was greeted by the sight of a pure white room.
The room was filled with the scent of disinfectant and the smell of birds chirping outside the window. James Watson's mind was in a state of confusion and he had no idea where he was.
He slowly turned his gaze and saw that his bed was filled with all kinds of life-support devices. The ends of these devices were densely connected to his body like cables.
"You're awake."
At this moment, James Watson suddenly heard a steady voice in front of him. James Watson slowly turned his head and saw several doctors standing in front of his bed.
James Watson opened his mouth but found that he could not say a word. A hint of panic flashed in his eyes but he was quickly restrained by one of the doctors.
"Your brain was injured and you were in a coma for more than two months. It's normal for you to be unable to do certain things because your brain is still adapting to you."
As he said this, he took out a walkie-talkie and spoke into it. After a while, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the door.
James Watson looked at the door and saw a large group of his relatives walking in quickly.
"My God..."
"Father!"
Watson Jr. was the first to step forward and held James Watson's hand tightly. "Father, how are you feeling?"
"I... Where... am..."
Watson opened his mouth, only to discover that he was already speaking.
"You were injured by a gunshot and we sent you to the hospital. We're now in the Eco Science City in Namibia, Africa."
Watson Jr. said excitedly, "It's Uncle Felix who helped us."
"Oh, it's him..."
Watson's voice was hoarse. "But, how come I... I don't remember being injured..."
"Doctor?"
Watson Jr. subconsciously looked at the doctor beside him.
"It's normal."
The doctor said calmly, "We did use the chip to restore the function of the damaged part of his brain, but there's nothing we can do about his memory. After all, it's a brain injury and it's normal to lose part of one's memory."
"Alright."
Watson Jr. turned around and comforted him. "It's alright, Father. We can help you remember it later."
Watson Jr. nodded. However, at this moment, he suddenly realized something and subconsciously raised his hand to touch his right eye.
But what he touched was only a wrapped piece of gauze.
"My eyes …"
"Your eyes have been removed due to severe damage. But it doesn't matter. After you recover, we can install a bionic eye for you. This is part of Project Xingtian."
The attending doctor explained.
"Bionic eye?"
Watson Jr. was taken aback. "I've been paying attention to this project as well, but I recall that Project Xingtian only has four limbs. There's no such thing as a prosthetic eye."
"The bionic eye is a new type of artificial limb in Project Xingtian. It is still in the development and testing phase and has not been announced to the public."
The attending doctor replied, "But the principle is actually similar to this brain repair surgery. Through the surgical robot, the patient's optic nerve is connected to the electrodes of the bionic artificial eye, thus achieving the goal of restoring vision."
"It's unbelievable …" 163 TXT
Watson Jr. could not help but sigh.
Before this incident, if someone had told him that it was possible to repair the brain and restore vision to the blind with the current level of human technology, he would have scoffed at it.
But now, his father had really regained consciousness. Not only was he awake, but he also seemed to have made a full recovery. This made him realize that the technology of the Earth Federation... No, the technology of the Eco Science City was truly miraculous...
A few hours later, the doctor returned with some item cards and performed a simple cognitive test on Watson. The results of the test were astonishing. This elderly man who had suffered severe brain damage did not show any cognitive errors during the test. There was also no major change in the patient's temperament after brain damage. He still retained his normal cognitive ability and normal personality.
A day later, Watson had recovered to the point where he could sit up and eat alone in bed.
Three days later, Watson got out of bed for the first time. Aside from his somewhat sluggish movements, he was almost no different from an ordinary person.
At this point, everyone finally realized that James Watson had truly recovered. From a critically ill patient who was on the brink of death with more than 10% brain damage, he had recovered to a normal person. This was a medical miracle.
"Mr. James Watson."
Just when the Watson family was immersed in joy, several doctors arrived at Watson's intensive care unit. In the middle of these doctors stood a familiar face — Qian Wenhuan.
"Is there anything I can help you with, Doctor Johnson?"
Watson had become familiar with the doctors here and immediately asked when the attending doctor arrived.
"It's this gentleman who would like to have a chat with you."
Doctor Johnson immediately said while looking at Qian Wenhuan.
"Father, let me introduce you."
Watson Jr. thought to himself, "Sure enough, he's here." He introduced, "This young gentleman here is the CEO of Blackwatch, Mr. Qian Wenhuan."
"No, I'm not."
Qian Wenhuan waved his hand. "I'm just the CEO of the African branch." With that, he shook hands with James Watson and placed a document on the table. "Mr. Watson, you should know why I'm here. Although you haven't fully recovered yet and it's not the right time to talk about this, I'm here with the letter of intent. If you have any objections, you can come to me at any time."
"Is it about me joining Blackwatch?"
James Watson nodded. "I'm no longer the chairman of Cold Spring Harbor. As long as you don't mind my old age, I'm sure I can do the job..."
"That's wonderful."
Qian Wenhuan nodded and at the same time, he took out a thin golden card and handed it to Watson. "Since you're willing to join us, this card is a welcome gift from our company. This was personally ordered by our chairman."
Watson received the card with a blank look on his face. When he saw what it was, he was shocked. This golden card was a membership card for the recuperation center.
"What the f * ck, this is a gold membership card!"
Bruno exclaimed, "A premium membership card second only to platinum and diamond!"
"That's right, it seems that Mr. Bruno knows his stuff."
Qian Wenhuan smiled. "This is the treatment that a professor-level researcher should receive. If Mr. Watson makes a significant contribution to our company, we can even upgrade it to platinum or even diamond."
Hearing this, the doctors around Qian Wenhuan could not help but look at Watson with envy. If gold membership cards were precious but not rare, then platinum and diamond membership cards were the real deal.
The function of a platinum membership card was that one could go to Eco Science City for treatment at any time, anywhere, without any restrictions on appointments!
The treatment that James Watson received was already the treatment that only the world's top scientists could enjoy...
After leaving the hospital, Qian Wenhuan looked at the secretary behind him. "Inform the human resources department to list James Watson's file as a beta confidential. Don't forget to include his medical records as well."
"Understood."
The tall and burly secretary nodded and sent the information to the human resources department. However, when he pressed the send button, the phone screen suddenly flashed twice.
The secretary thought that there was something wrong with the phone. He patted the phone and looked at it again, only to see that the message had been successfully sent.
Seeing this, the secretary put down the phone and left the hospital with Qian Wenhuan.
