Upon hearing Chen Chen's suggestion, Samuel's expression froze at first, then a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
The researcher in charge of explaining on the side glanced at Chen Chen with uncertainty.
"Hahaha, what did Mr. Chen do before this? You seem very familiar with cell anti-aging." The chairman on the side tried to smooth things over.
"I used to be a software developer," Chen Chen answered truthfully.
"..."
The smile on the chairman's face froze. "Is this some kind of joke in China?"
"Yes, I'm actually a biology major." Chen Chen nodded. "I've dabbled a little in the field of stem cells."
"I see..."
Chen Chen turned to the researcher and asked again, "Other than that, what other research results does the institute have?"
"Ah, we also have breast augmentation with autologous fat cells and the technology of cell injection to treat baldness..."
The researcher quickly answered, "Other than that..."
Hearing this, Chen Chen immediately waved his hand and interrupted him. "Let's talk about the stem cell project. What business and research does the company have in the field of stem cells?"
"Well... Currently, the company is mostly engaged in stem cell anti-aging business... That's PRP hematopoietic stem cell transfusion."
The researcher in charge of explaining was a little more careful. "First, the customer's blood is drawn, the hematopoietic stem cells in the blood are extracted and cultivated. After about a week of cultivation, it's used to inject into the customer's face, supplemented by intravenous injection of mesenchymal stem cells.
"In addition, we've recently been researching how to extract vascular stromal tissue from fat and then inject it with fat stem cells into the customer's face to promote the transplantation of fat to rebuild blood flow, thereby improving the loss of collagen in the face.
"Its advantage is that it can be injected precisely like hyaluronic acid to reconstruct the facial contour.
"How do you solve the problem of ectopic stem cell survival?"
Chen Chen suddenly asked, "Can stem cells injected into the body survive for more than a month?"
"This..."
The researcher said awkwardly, "Because the technology is not mature enough, the survival rate is not very optimistic."
Chen Chen shook his head speechlessly.
These projects sounded very attractive to some rich ladies, but Chen Chen understood that these were just unorthodox methods and did not reduce the root of the problem of aging.
Simply put, these so-called "cell anti-aging" and "stem cell anti-aging" were a new kind of IQ tax.
Stem cells did have the ability to regenerate and they could indeed differentiate into various new cells to replace the body's gradually apoptotic aging cells, but this did not mean that injecting stem cells into the human body would achieve the same effect.
One had to know that the human body was a balanced body in all aspects. Whether it was pH, energy circulation, or body temperature, they were all very balanced.
Once this balance was broken, it often represented the emergence of all kinds of diseases, even cancer.
It did not mean that stem cells had the ability to regenerate. Therefore, as long as the human body was injected with stem cells, the person would be able to regain their youth under the treatment of stem cells.
This was simply a delusion.
Even treating leukemia required the destruction of the body's balance to make room for the stem cells. How could ordinary injections work so easily?
Even if it was autologous stem cells, after being transfused back into the body, most of them would die within a few weeks due to being unable to withstand the environmental changes.
The term "stem cell anti-aging" seemed very sophisticated and scientific, but in fact, it was not as effective as eating more supplements.
As for the fact that many people felt their bodies heat up and become more energetic after being injected with stem cells, it was just a temporary physiological reaction.
There was once a method of cheating in the field of sports — drawing a certain amount of blood from oneself in advance and transfusing it back into one's body before the game.
After using this method, the athlete's physical strength, body oxygen content, and exercise limit time were significantly enhanced in a short period of time.
This method of cheating was the famous "blood doping".
To put it bluntly, these stem cell anti-aging treatments were based on the same principle as "blood doping".
Therefore, these stem cell anti-aging treatments would generally have some effect at first, but not long after, they would be beaten back to their original state.
Not only that, but medical accidents such as disfigurement, tumor formation, and blindness caused by stem cell health care were not uncommon.
The field of human application of stem cells was still in its infancy.
...
After a tour, Chen Chen only felt a little disappointed.
He did not expect the technological reserves of a Swiss technology company to be so mediocre.
Still, it was only a small company after all. Although they had dabbled in stem cells, it was only at the surface level. They certainly could not compare to pharmaceutical giants like Roche and Novartis.
Still, he had to buy it. Although this method of spending money like this was a serious loss of money, it saved time after all.
Although Chen Chen could also choose to start from scratch and build a company in Switzerland and set up a research institute, the time frame involved was too long.
Chen Chen's parents were no longer young. They were already middle-aged.
A long time ago, when Chen Chen had just understood the concept of "death", he witnessed his grandfather's death with his own eyes one day and suddenly felt a great fear —
Why did people die in the end? What was death?
At that time, his father told him that death was like the feeling of sleeping, knowing nothing and thinking of nothing.
It was just that it was different from sleeping. When you slept, you would wake up. As soon as you woke up, it would be the next day with the sun shining brightly.
On the other hand, death was a sleep where you would never see the next day.
This kind of childish explanation made Chen Chen wet his pants on the spot. It became a childhood trauma for Chen Chen.
It was also because of this that when he heard about the possibility of immortality in Professor Wang Xi's class, he was so shocked.
However, what was even more bizarre was that his life coincidentally changed on that day.
Perhaps he could use the USB drive to greatly extend the lifespan of the entire human race before his parents became completely old?
Chen Chen could not help thinking about this.
After all, with the USB drive, he was almost destined to have a long life. However, if he lived alone, it would be too boring.
Compared to love and friendship, Chen Chen valued the affection of his parents more. This was because love and friendship would deteriorate, but affection would not.
Of course, this was only limited to the affection of his parents.
Three days later, Chen Chen and Preston Company officially signed an agreement. Chen Chen purchased all of Preston Company's shares for 350 million Swiss francs, including a two-thousand-square-meter office building and a small research institute.
At this point, Chen Chen finally had everything in place. He could finally carry out the plan he had been planning for a long time.
A plan that focused on stem cell engineering, genetic engineering, human tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and other life sciences. It was a futile attempt to completely subvert the laws of life —
