Global Monopoly of Technology

For the next three days, Luo Sheng gave himself three days off. As for the company's affairs, he basically didn't care, but everything was running in an orderly manner.

Strictly speaking, Luo Sheng only rested for half a day these three days.

Because, in order to compensate Qin Weimu and the others, they were allowed to spend their money indiscriminately...

Luo Sheng felt that it was too difficult for him, and felt that life was not easy, and the result of the promised vacation was to serve them.

Three days later, Luo Sheng re-invested in the research and development process. The follow-up work is to design a real biochip and manufacture it. It doesn't need too much, just over 100 pieces. Luo Sheng's current needs are only manufacturing. More than a dozen androids have gone overseas to take up executive positions in security companies.

But it is precisely because of this that it is extremely expensive, and the technical links, production, process technology, and resources occupied will not be reduced due to the low output of manufactured chips.

On the contrary, semiconductors are an industry chain of an inverted pyramid, and high-volume production will be more cost-effective.

The new biotransistor is the first integrated bioelectronic system, which not only provides the core technical support for the birth of the bionic man, but also provides another important way for the fusion of electronic repair devices such as prosthetics with the human body.

It is widely used, and Borch Technology will be very useful in the future, but Luo Sheng is not ready to popularize this technology.

The time has not come.

With Xiaona's assistance, Luo Sheng's efficiency increased by 3700% in the process of designing the chip. The biochip still uses the gate-all-around FinFET nanosheet structure, and the production is completed by Xiongxin Electronics.

At this time, it has played a privileged role as a big BOSS.

Cote d'Azur Headquarters, Office of the Executive Vice President.

"What on earth is Mr. Luo messing with recently?" At this moment, Yao Jianhong was reading the email message just sent by Luo Sheng on the display panel, and the content was confusing to him.

After reading the email, Yao Jianhong immediately picked up the landline phone.

"Procurement department? Send someone to get dozens of tons of crabs as soon as possible."

"Ah? President Yao, crab?"

"Yes, crab. After you get it back, send it to the Cote d'Azur laboratory to extract all the carapace cellulose in the crab to a purity of ninety-nine percent... Nine nines after the decimal point, and then send it to Xiongxin Go to the electronics side."

"This...Mr. Yao, this has reached the most advanced chip wafer purification process. I am afraid that the Azur laboratory cannot achieve such high-purity purification. Currently, only Shin-Etsu Chemical in Japan can do it."

"Understood, then let the blue coast laboratory do a purification process first, and then package it and send it to Shin-Etsu Chemical, and hand over the list to them to do it. The quantity is not large, and the price is more expensive. The key is be quick."

"clear."

...

Yao Jianhong received...  

Luo Sheng's latest order quickly ordered the people below to implement it. At the same time, Luo Sheng also distributed an email to Liu Yixuan, the head of Xiongxin Electronics.

I am ready to give up a part of the limited production capacity for my much-needed biochip.

In a word from the big boss, the people below run around the world, trying to meet the boss's requirements as much as possible.

However, Luo Sheng did not abuse his privileges. The role he is now playing is a special customer of his company, and he needs to give money. Otherwise, it is illegal in the legal sense and is a misappropriation of public resources.

This account is not cheap. In order to manufacture more than 100 pieces of biochips, it takes more than 2,000 processes and the coordination of the upper and lower production chains. This is very resource-intensive, and quantified by the cost, the cost is as high as 2,000. A huge $1.9 billion.

In other words, the cost of a biochip is equivalent to nearly 20 million US dollars, which may be the most expensive chip in the world so far.

This expenditure Luo Sheng paid in his own name instead of letting the company do it for nothing. Although it is not cheap, it is indeed not too much for Luo Sheng's current worth.

Obviously, if Luo Sheng didn't have a huge business and technology empire to support his goals, even if he mastered all the technologies, he would definitely not be able to create them, let alone implement them so quickly.

...

Area 32 Laboratory.

Luo Sheng entered the laboratory, put on a special sterile dust-free protective suit, and entered the biological experiment isolation area. Today is the second month of stem cell cultivation.

The area of ​​the biological laboratory has an inexplicable feeling of silence and depression, as if it is a biochemical laboratory, and some terrifying creatures may appear at any time, but Luo Sheng is not affected by this atmosphere. The so-called wise man is not confused, here He knew everything about the situation, and Xiaona monitored the whole process.

"Master, the tissue cells in the medium are all developing normally, and they can enter the next stage of organ induction and development."

Xiaona's voice resounded in the quiet laboratory.

If the situation here is discovered by outside bioengineers, it will definitely stir up the entire academic world, because today's scientists still don't know how to induce stem cells to form organs in vitro, which is why the current law does not allow cloning of organs.

In fact, with the current level of technology, it is possible to clone organs, but the process is very cruel, because it has to grow naturally in the living body and then take it away.

Only a method that can induce stem cells in vitro may allow organ cloning, and Luo Sheng has realized this technology without the world's knowledge.

The difficulty is how to genetically induce stem cells to develop into the desired organ tissues.

At this moment, Luo Sheng is working silently, he organizes the cells induced to grow in one medium after another...

Transferred to a larger breeding cabin, the next step is to further develop into organs.

This is physical labor, Xiaona can't do it, she can only do it one by one.

The cultivation cabin needs to solve the influence of exogenous substances, such as cell mutation, serum, culture medium, cytokines and many other influences in the process of culture and development; it also needs to solve how to make cells grow three-dimensionally, form organ structure and shape, and how to make different cell types. Form tight physiological structures, physiological connections, etc.

It is worth mentioning that Cao Junhui's organ simulator is a simple Beta version compared to what Luo Sheng is currently cultivating, because Cao Junhui's organ simulator does not need to develop into organs, it develops into several organs in the culture medium. After a million cells it's fine.

After all, the uses are different. One is for new drug testing, and the other is to create a bionic man that can move. The energy requirements and technical requirements are completely different.

In addition, as much as possible, it is necessary to save energy consumption, so some unnecessary organs and tissues can be eliminated as simply as possible. Some indispensable cell and tissue systems in the human body are not needed at all in the bionic person, which is more than that.

For example, brain tissue, bionics do not need it. Instead, biochips are used to coordinate all organ tissues. At the same time, the information feedback of organ tissues will also be sent to the biochip through bioelectric signals for processing, and then through the biological chip. The telecommunications transmit the instructions to the major organ and tissue systems, so that the android can move.

There are two problems to be solved here, one is the problem of signal distortion, otherwise, wrong information will be received and wrong instructions will be sent; the other is the problem of "translation" of the signal, and wrong instructions cannot be sent.

It can be seen that the bionic man does not need battery energy to drive, but relies on biological energy to drive, does not need to be charged but supplements the nutrients consumed by living organisms.

The difference is that the bionic person will not eat directly like a normal living body, but needs special substances to be injected and supplemented, because after all, it is not a normal organic living body, and it will be bad to eat randomly.

The bionic man is considered a "quasi-clone man", and the biggest difference between the bionic man and the "clone man" is that the "power consumption" of the bionic man is much lower than that of the former, because a lot of cell tissue systems are simplified, and the cloned man cannot do this, it is normal. All the tissues and organs that a natural person should have in a cloned human being must not be missing, otherwise, they will die.

But bionics can do it. For example, bionics have no brains. They use chips to replace their brains, and they do not have self-hematopoietic functions. Instead, they regularly replenish blood cells in vitro.

After Luo Sheng got the medium and transferred it to the culture chamber for further induction and development, he left the biological isolation zone. He just had to wait for the next month. If it is normal growth and development, it may take several years, but in artificial Intervention accelerated development under catalytic induction, and only one month was sufficient.
