Su Yun pondered over his boss's words. He seemed to understand why the boss would not let go of this matter.
There were many theories on the mechanism of tumor development. One of them was that when damaged cells were repaired, the chromosomal mechanism would change, leading to abnormal proliferation.
It seemed that the boss thought this was the direction of the Burta Private Research Institute.
"Chris, we're friends." Zheng Ren showed a rare honest and simple smile. He patted Christian's shoulder and said, "I'm very interested in the research on tumors. I'm not coveting the Bruch family's research."
Su Yun felt that his boss's rare smile carried some unfathomable thoughts.
"The direction of our research is to find out why bats suddenly died," Christian said. "As for diseases like tumors, they don't exist for us. It's just an accident, a by-product, that's all."
"Have you found a way to deal with fungal infections?" Zheng Ren asked.
Christian made a silent exaggerated expression. His eyes widened. For a moment, Su Yun felt that Chris's fangs seemed to have grown a few millimeters.
The boss was digging his own grave! Su Yun did not understand why his boss would repeatedly provoke Christian on this matter. Why could he not live well? Why did he have to provoke this group of people that even Fan Tianshui thought would undoubtedly die?
"Don't be agitated. After receiving Mr. Roche's request, I started this research." Zheng Ren began to speak nonsense. Su Yun felt that his boss's face was too good for deception.
Thick eyebrows and big eyes gave people a sense of trust at a glance. When he spoke, it was ninety percent true and ten percent false. It was difficult to tell what exactly he said wrong.
He had to be wary of him in the future. Little Rock was right!
"I think there's still a problem with fungal infections. You also know that this research will take at least thirty years. I might spend half of my life on this, so I'm just a little curious and want to know the results of your research. "
Zheng Ren 'persuaded' Christian.
However, his persuasion had almost no effect. Christian did not want to talk about bats or fungus at all.
"Zheng, Su, I'll send you back," Christian said, barely maintaining his gentle mood.
"Okay, I don't know why you're so resistant. But this time, as long as you can use the reverse transcription method to make medicine to save my little friend, I'm already very grateful, "Zheng Ren said with a smile.
Christian's car was parked in the lobby of the private hospital.
It was black and soundless, like a giant bat, making Zheng Ren's hair stand on end. It was indeed the property of the Bruch family and Christian. Zheng Ren would never have dreamed of driving his car into the hospital's outpatient hall.
The atmosphere in the car was a little strange. Christian, who was usually cheerful and cheerful, was silent and seemed to be in a bad mood.
No matter how Su Yun tried to find a topic, Christian didn't want to pick it up.
It was not until he got out of the car and waved goodbye to Christian that the black classic car disappeared into the night of Heidelberg that Su Yun let out a sigh of relief.
"Boss, what are you thinking?!" Su Yun said with a slight complaint.
"I wanted to confirm something, and now I have the answer," Zheng Ren said. "Christian's research on genetic modification has made a breakthrough."
"Hmm? You saw it from bats? "Su Yun asked.
"Bats are the most awesome mammals, second to none," Zheng Ren said. "The so-called human standing at the top of the food chain is just a joke."
"Tsk, I heard people eat bat sashimi some time ago."
"It has nothing to do with the food chain," Zheng Ren said. "Wild animals eat humans, but that doesn't mean they're more advanced than humans. Bats are powerful because they're almost isolated from viruses. They carry more than 300 types of viruses in their bodies, but they're fine. "
"Humans can carry thousands of types of bacteria, some of which are probiotics," Su Yun automatically argued.
"Well, what you said makes sense." Zheng Ren did not refute. Instead, he looked in the direction where Christian disappeared and gradually became lost in thought.
"What did you mean by that?" Su Yun asked. "What is Christian researching?"
"Let's put it this way. Scientific research has found that mammals with faster heartbeats have shorter lifespans," Zheng Ren said lightly.
"Well, the heart muscle is like a machine. If it's used too much, it will naturally break down," Su Yun said.
"An elephant's heartbeat is only 26 times per minute and its average lifespan is 60 years. A blue whale's heartbeat can be as low as 2 times per minute and its average lifespan is 80 years. "
"You're talking nonsense. The average human heart rate is 70-80 times per minute and their average lifespan is almost 80 years."
"That's because doctors exist. Elephants, blue whales, and rats don't have doctors," Zheng Ren said. Zheng Ren said, "Bats are a very strange existence. Their average lifespan can reach 10 to 40 years."
"Is there such a big difference?" Su Yun frowned.
He was not a biologist and did not know much about bats, so he honestly maintained a cautious attitude. This was the good thing about true contrarians. They always knew how to respect things that they had not studied.
"Yes, it's because of a disease called white-nose syndrome," Zheng Ren said. "Bats are not afraid of viruses, but they have their enemies. Christian is looking for a corresponding solution to save bats. "
"White-nose syndrome …" Su Yun did not know much about zoology. He looked at Zheng Ren in surprise and asked, "Boss, why do you want to know about zoology?"
"I started studying it after I came back from a mission …"
"Bullsh * t!" Su Yun began to curse. "Is this written in the fifth edition of surgery?"
"The time you use to sleep, I use it to work; the time you use to play games, I use it to work; the time you use to chat, I use it to work." Zheng Ren calmly threw the blame to Su Yun.
Su Yun felt that there were countless flaws in this sentence, but he could not refute it.
"When I was looking for bats, I found that in 2009, the United States discovered that a large number of bat species were wiped out because of a fungal infection of white-nose syndrome," Zheng Ren said. "I studied it carefully and found that sporadic reports mentioned that bats have the ability to repair themselves."
"Uh …"
"I'm not interested in white-nose syndrome, but bats' self-repair ability is so strong that it is indeed a new way to treat tumors," Zheng Ren said. "Later, Christian found us and told us about the existence of Berta's laboratory. I guess that's the case."
"You tricked him out?"
"It's a reasonable logical judgment."
