Science on the Rise: Starting with Cell Editors

　　John O'Keefe took a deep breath, stood up, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed the number of his student Xu Xiaochuan.

Chapter 56 The times have changed

　　After the call was connected, John O'Keefe said straight to the point: "You book a flight right away, go to Dragon Country with me again, or find Lu Li... Why? Because he has another amazing research result, he has cultivated a The photosynthetic rabbit, he has stepped into God's forbidden zone!"

　　hiss!

　　Xu Xiaochuan was stunned.

　　My compatriot, Lu Li, has stepped into God's forbidden zone and is opening the door to human evolution?

　　If I remember correctly, it seems that it has not been a month since he conquered AIDS, right?

　　Such talent!

　　Such research ability!

　　Definitely the most powerful existence ever!

　　At the same time, Xu Xiaochuan began to seriously think about a problem.

　　Do I still need to study in Starland?

　　I went to the other side of the ocean to study with Professor John O'Keefe, because at that time, the world's most advanced biotechnology was here, but now, the world's most advanced biotechnology is in the motherland and in the hands of Lu Li!

　　The knowledge I'm learning now is outdated. Even my mentor, Professor John O'Keefe, took the initiative to ask Lu Li for advice!

　　Since it is backward knowledge, even if you have learned something, what is the use?That's a complete waste of time, a waste of life.

　　this moment.

　　Xu Xiaochuan made a decision. He wanted to drop out of Harvard University, return to the motherland, go to Lu Li's side, and learn the most advanced biotechnology. Even if Lu Li did not accept students, he could work in Lu Li's laboratory, or go to the laboratory founded by Lu Li. Works at Galaxy Life Co., Ltd., where he has access to the most advanced biotechnology!

　　Thinking of this, Xu Xiaochuan took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Professor, I will book a ticket right away to accompany you to the Dragon Country, and will help you on this journey until you return to the Star Country, but... There is one thing I want to tell you, after careful consideration, I am going to drop out of school, and I want to go back to the Dragon Country, because it is now a leader in biotechnology."

　　Xu Xiaochuan originally thought that Professor John O'Keefe would be disappointed or angry, but what he didn't expect was...

　　John O'Keefe actually said: "Actually, I was about to tell you that I went to Long Kingdom this time to apply for Lu Li's experimental assistant, follow Lu Li, and open the door to human evolution together. If he agrees, I will. Resign from Harvard University. Besides, I was going to recommend you to Professor Gates, but now it seems that I don’t need to.”

　　"This this this..."

　　Xu Xiaochuan suspected that he had heard it wrong.

　　Professor John O'Keefe of Harvard University, the winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, has to apply for Lu Li's experimental assistant at the age of 69. No matter who hears this news, I am afraid it is hard to believe it?

　　Such top scientists are already treasures in the world, and they will be sought after no matter where they go.

　　However, he was going to apply for an experimental assistant!

　　"Professor, did I hear it right?"

　　"You heard that right."

　　"However, doing this in your capacity... I'm afraid it will cause a lot of criticism."

　　"Those things are not important to me. I have spent most of my life researching genetic technology, and opening the door to human evolution is my lifelong dream. My lifespan is running out, even if I die. , I also want to die on the way to pursue my dreams, what's more, if the door to human evolution is really opened, I will have the opportunity to continue my life. Well, that's all, you book your ticket as soon as possible, we Leave today."

　　beep.

　　The phone hangs up.

　　Xu Xiaochuan squeezed his face hard. After feeling the pain, he laughed: "I'm not dreaming! Lu Li is really opening the door to human evolution! The professor is really going to apply for Lu Li's experimental assistant!"

　　"The world is changing so fast, but this kind of change... It's good!"

　　"This shows that the motherland has risen and become a leader in biotechnology. In the future, if you want to learn the most advanced biotechnology, you don't need to study abroad. On the contrary, Westerners will start to study in the motherland!"

　　"The times have changed!"

　　……

　　at the same time.

　　Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

　　Bruce Butler also took a deep breath after reading the email from Raymond.

　　"In three months, I published four papers in the journal "Cell", from single-base gene editing technology, overcoming AIDS, biological gene lock technology, to parasitic chloroplasts that enable rabbits to photosynthesize. Such achievements, It can be called a monster among monsters!"

　　"The most important thing is that he is only 18 years old, and three months ago, he just graduated from high school!"

　　"Such a talent... If it is a citizen of our star country..."

　　Thinking of this, Bruce Butler picked up his mobile phone and dialed Jenny, the speaker's assistant.

　　"Professor, what's the matter with you?"

　　"I need to meet Mr. Speaker, the sooner the better."

　　"What do you want to discuss with Your Excellency the Speaker?"

　　"A genius, a genius of the Dragon Kingdom, I would like to suggest to Mr. Speaker, do everything possible to win over that genius, by the way, the genius's name is Lu Li, you just need to search on the Internet, you can I found a lot of information about him."

　　"Okay, Professor, I'll report to His Excellency the Speaker."

　　After Jenny hung up the phone, she left the office, because Bruce Butler had an unusual identity. He was not only a Nobel Prize winner in physiology or medicine, but also a scientific advisor to the Star Council.

　　……

　　at the same time.

　　The Sun Never Sets, Royal Society.

　　The Royal Society is the highest academic institution in the country where the sun never sets, and its status is equivalent to that of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the dragon country.

　　Inside the office.

　　The president of the Royal Society, William Ferrari, was talking to others about Lu Li.

　　"That genius of the Dragon Kingdom, Lu Li, he...he actually started to step into God's forbidden zone!"

　　"His talent is terrifying and I think he has a good chance of success!"

　　"Yeah, in just a few months, he has achieved such an achievement. This kind of talent, in the scientific community, seems to have never appeared."

　　"When he first conquered AIDS, I was tempted to recruit him, but when I saw him rejecting Harvard's invitation at the scientific and technological achievements conference, I extinguished this idea, but now, I think, As long as you can recruit him, it's worth paying no matter how big the price is."

　　"I think so too. I suggest that we, the Royal Society, make a collective proposal to the Queen and recruit Lu Li at all costs. If Lu Li is willing to come, I can give him the position of President of the Royal Society."

　　……

　　If it is said, Lu Li has only entered the sight of scientists and pharmaceutical giants before.

　　Then.

　　this day.

　　Lu Li has entered the attention of governments of various countries.

Chapter 57 I'm here to apply for an experimental assistant

　　The next day, after Lu Li got up and finished breakfast, he went to school with Qin Wei. Qin Wei needed to go to class, but he didn't need to. He didn't even go to the classroom at all, not even his teachers and classmates. It also makes those classmates feel very sorry to have met each other. It was something to be proud and proud of to have such a good classmate, but I have never met, so is that still a classmate?

　　Lu Li came directly to the laboratory. At this time, he found that the security specifications of the laboratory had been upgraded. There were originally only two security personnel, but now there are four. From this detail, it can be seen that the country attaches great importance to this technology.

　　"Everyone is now focusing on rabbits that can perform photosynthesis, but they don't know that this is my last research result. What I'm researching now is actually intelligent creatures."

　　Lu Li smiled and muttered to himself, then began to think about how to create intelligent creatures and what kind of intelligent creatures to create.

　　"If you want to create intelligent creatures that can absolutely obey orders, you can't let them have self-awareness like humans, or leave a backhand in those intelligent creatures first, and they can decide their life and death with a single thought."

　　"As for the types of intelligent creatures, is it to create a completely new species, or to transform it with animals such as cats and dogs?"

　　"Well, let's create a brand new species, which is more challenging and can also accumulate experience, laying the foundation for my future research on star beasts that can travel in space."

　　"What is this species used for? Is it a pet like a kitten and a puppy? Or a bodyguard with a powerful fighting force?"

　　"..."

　　Lu Li kept thinking, all kinds of thoughts flashed in his mind.

　　dong dong dong.

　　There was a knock on the laboratory door.

　　Lu Li looked up and found that it was Director Wu. Behind him, there were three middle-aged men wearing CCTV reporter work permits.

　　"Lu Li, they are all reporters from CCTV's seven o'clock news, and they are here to interview you."

　　Director Wu introduced.

　　Immediately afterwards, one of the middle-aged men smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Lu, my name is Zhang Wei, nice to meet you."

　　The other two also introduced themselves.

　　Last night, Director Wu mentioned that the development of a rabbit capable of photosynthesis is a major event worthy of national celebration, and reporters will be arranged to interview, so Lu Li is not surprised, he greets the three reporters with a smile. : "Hello."

　　After half an hour, the interview ended.

　　Zhang Wei and others said goodbye to Lu Li and left with the interview materials.

　　After leaving the laboratory.

　　Zhang Wei couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that if I killed it, there are still rabbits capable of photosynthesis in the world."

　　The other two couldn't help but speak.

　　"Yeah, I was too shocked to speak just now. This has broken the laws that have been passed down by nature for hundreds of millions of years. I can guarantee that when the news is broadcast, the whole world will explode."

　　"What shocked me the most was Lu Li. He's only 18 years old, and he has already reached this height. If I give him a few more decades, what will the world be like? To be honest, it's beyond my imagination. ."

　　At this moment, they saw an old foreigner and a young man from the Dragon Kingdom coming from a distance, as if they were going to Lu Li's laboratory, but they didn't think much about it and just brushed past the two of them. Pass.

　　And those two were Professor John O'Keefe and Xu Xiaochuan.

　　They got off the plane and hurried to Qingda University.

　　……

　　"Mr. Lu, there are people looking for you outside the laboratory. One of them claims to be John O'Keefe who has met with you, and the other is his student."

　　A security guard at the entrance of the laboratory walked into the laboratory and said to Lu Li.
