Global Monopoly of Technology

Chapter 411 [P Four Labs]

The document is very thick, and Luo Sheng continued to browse the follow-up content.

In the first half of this year, Shengfeng Capital's key investment area is the semiconductor industry. 70% of the 89.2 billion yuan is related to investment in the semiconductor industry. The investment amount exceeds more than 60 billion yuan. The investment scope covers the whole world. The overseas investment is mainly some As a private scientific research institution, Shengfeng Capital wants to invest in those national-level scientific research laboratories in Europe and the United States, but they do not accept it.

However, sticking to the strategy of casting a wide net, there are also fish that slip through the net, and there are also great gods, who may be able to catch a few big fish from it.

In addition to the semiconductor industry, another investment field is life science and medical related. In the first half of this year, the investment amount was 13.5 billion yuan.

Luo Sheng closed the report and looked at Qin Weimu: "In the field of life sciences, why haven't we seen the investment in biosafety experiments? This is a very important field, and our country has not yet had a P4 in use. Laboratory, this situation has to end."

The H1N1 U.S. swine flu that broke out in North America in 2009 last year raged for nearly a year, killing more than 280,000 people and causing considerable panic for a while.

Nowadays, the task of human beings to combat the spread of the virus is becoming more and more severe. Research on how to prevent and combat it has become a common concern of people, and providing solutions to the problems that the public is worried about can get rich rewards.

Strictly speaking, Luo Sheng is not a biologist, and he does not have much in-depth knowledge in the fields of life science and virology.

However, geniuses are often all-in-one, and Luo Sheng has also made achievements in other fields, but the representativeness is in the field of AI and new materials.

Just like Thomas Young, a British physicist in history and one of the founders of the wave theory of light, he is not only a leader in the field of physics, but also a doctor, covering fields such as mechanics, mathematics, optics, acoustics, linguistics, Zoology, archaeology, etc., is a rare all-round genius in the world.

Luo Sheng was hailed as the Oriental "Thomas Yang" by academia in his last life. He also dabbled in other fields. He is also a rare all-round genius in the world. In this life, he can easily transform from a scientist to an entrepreneur and lead a group of heroes It is the best interpretation, but his brilliance in the field of AI is so dazzling that it overshadows his achievements in other fields.

Without the ability to know everything, you are not qualified to say that you are a genius among geniuses.

Obviously, Luo Sheng attaches great importance to the investment in the field of life science, not only to solve the diseases that the public is worried about, but also to find some means to delay aging and prolong life. .

Qin Weimu sighed leisurely: "It is difficult, mainly because it is difficult to obtain the approval of the state. The completion of the P4 laboratory is no trivial matter."

The P4 laboratory is also the laboratory of biosafety level 4, which is the top laboratory of biosafety. P4 is the highest level, and there is no more.

For example, the Ebola virus discovered in the last century has a biosafety level 4, AIDS is level 3, and SARS is also level 3. The higher the level, the stricter the protection.

According to the infectivity and harm of infectious diseases, there are four grades. The first grade has nothing to do with human adult health and disease, and is the lowest grade; Methods; Level 3 can cause serious or lethal disease in humans, with possible prevention and treatment.

The fourth grade, in humans, can cause serious or fatal diseases and cannot be prevented or treated.

For example, Ebola virus, human beings have no way to do anything about it so far. Once it is unfortunately infected, it is basically impossible to save. The real seven orifices bleed, coughing can cough out the internal organs, the body is festering, and the process of death is even more painful.

It is no exaggeration to say that the T virus in the movie "Resident Evil" is only the same in the face of the real Ebola virus. After all, the people infected with the T virus are already unconscious living dead, and the most seriously infected Ebola virus is no exaggeration. People with bola virus are still conscious, and life is better than death; anyway, the T virus can be infected by a bite, and the most serious Ebola virus can be infected by touching it.

The so-called P4 laboratory is dedicated to doing this, and it is a place to deal with such a disgusting existence as the Ebola virus.

Biosafety is no trivial matter. The World Health Organization has always attached great importance to the safety of biological laboratories. As early as 1983, the "Laboratory Biosafety Manual" was published.

The P4 laboratory is undoubtedly a "double-edged sword". Its application can benefit mankind, but if it is not done well, it may become a disaster for mankind. The P4 laboratory is used to store and study the most deadly viruses in the world. For many people, especially the public, they always feel that a large super virus bomb is placed somewhere, and there are always hidden dangers of insecurity. .

Some people even suggested that it is the safest to not build a biosafety laboratory.

This kind of argument not only exists in China, but also in the United States, where there is a laboratory, there have been public protests against the construction of the P4 laboratory.

It is unreasonable to say that not building is the safest. The big difference between humans and animals is that they will take precautions before they happen. If a P4 laboratory is not built, when a deadly virus spreads and spreads, human beings are dead or alive. It can only be left to fate.

And human beings, as the only group of intelligent creatures on earth, obviously cannot leave their destiny to the sky to decide. Even if they perish, it is better to destroy themselves than to be destroyed by the sky.

Humans are such creatures and would rather die at their own hands.

So far, although some corresponding regulations and regulations have been formulated in China in terms of biosafety, the highest level has only been stipulated in the P3 laboratory, and the P4 laboratory has not.

Luo Sheng pondered for a moment, then said to the air, "Xiao Na, make a calculation, what is the theoretical budget for building a P4 laboratory in an area with convenient resources and a P4 laboratory in a no-man's land?"

"receive!"

Xiaona fell into silence after responding, Qin Weimu glanced around as if looking for Xiaona, while Luo Sheng waited patiently.

Cost saving is generally best in urban areas with convenient transportation, but it cannot be in first-tier big cities. The price of land alone is unbearable. Even if the state grants land for free, consumption is not cheap.

The technical requirements of the P4 laboratory are very high, and the cost is also budgeted in units of 100 million. At present, there are only more than 50 P4 laboratories in the world, including those under construction. These dozens of top biosafety laboratories are all over the world. Five continents.

It stands to reason that China currently has the largest population in the world and the second largest GDP and R\u0026D in the world. The construction of advanced scientific research laboratories should not lag behind the talent pair.

But in fact, the two P4 laboratories that have been built in China are both there, and the only P4 laboratory in the mainland is still under construction in Jiangcheng. After so many years, the progress has been extremely slow, and I don’t know when it will be put into use.

"Master, the theoretical calculation result is out." Xiaona's voice sounded again, and it didn't make people wait too long.

Luo Sheng immediately asked, "How much?"

Xiaona: "The theoretical budget for building a P4 laboratory in urban areas is about 350 million yuan, while in no-man's land the theoretical budget is at least 1.8 billion yuan."

Qin Weimu couldn't help but say, "It costs hundreds of millions, or even more than one billion, to build a laboratory alone. I'm afraid the operating cost will not be lower than the construction cost, which is too expensive."

Shengfeng Capital is indeed super rich, but it is not solely focused on one field. It is really a huge burn of money when subdivided. This is the normal state of high-tech. Without enough money, it is really impossible to play.

Luo Sheng tilted his head, looked at Qin Weimu and said with a grin, "Aren't you a top trader, you can earn it back by making a turn in the international foreign exchange market. Two years later, Greece went bankrupt, the European debt crisis broke out, and the United Kingdom left the country. These black swan events in Europe can make our family fund a lot of money, and you can build the most powerful short-term fund in history."

Hearing this, Qin Weimu threw him an angry look, but after a while, she looked at Luo Sheng curiously: "Are you so sure that there will be a sovereign debt crisis in Europe?"

Luo Sheng opened his eyes and said nonsense: "I didn't believe it before, but I recently analyzed the situation in Europe, and no matter how I look at it, it's a bad rhythm. Now I'm more and more convinced of your original prediction, so don't let this go. Opportunity, otherwise God will not forgive us, there will be more places to spend money in the future."

Qin Wei Mu Yanzhan smiled, looked at the other party and said, "You have today's achievements, how much should I contribute?"

Luo Sheng pouted, seemingly serious and said: "%, too much should be about 5%, no more."

Qin Wei Muhu grinned: "Believe it or not, you will check the accounts one day. The asset list data above has a bar in front of it. This palace will make you the world's first negative person and a negative debtor."

Luo Sheng replied with a smile: "It's actually nothing to bring a horizontal bar. I happen to have an upright bar here. The combination is a '+' sign, which is very perfect!"

Qin Weimu: "..."
