v2 Chapter 452: Human gene sequencing completed

   Within the next month or so, Henry began to reorganize the sr company.

   On the day of April 1, Henry held a press conference to announce that the parent company was established and the sr company was merged into a subsidiary. It will be a diversified high-tech company, rather than a pure Internet search company.

   As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation in the United States and the world, what exactly did the company do?

   Soon, it came out that Henry Williams had established a laboratory. The projects studied in this laboratory will be the future and hope of the group. As for the specific projects, no one knows!

   So people call the laboratory a "mystery laboratory"!

   However, it is unexpected that the head of the laboratory is actually two young people, one is Larry Page and the other is Sergey Brin, neither of them is 26 years old!

   Soon, the media and shareholders raised questions and objections. How can such an important laboratory be handed over to two hairy boys? !

   The Wall Street Journal said: "Henry Williams made a very rash decision!"

   On that day, sr's stock price plummeted.

   The Times of the United Kingdom stated: "Since Henry Williams chose Larry Page and Hill Gablin, it shows that the two may be unique!"

   Soon, the identities of the two of them were all exposed. It turns out that both of them are Ph.D. geniuses at Stanford University, and are influential figures at Stanford University.

   The outside world was hustling, Henry issued a statement in support of Larry and Sergey: "Innovation is the soul of an enterprise. The reason why I appointed them as the heads of the laboratory is because of their innovative spirit!"

   Everyone saw Henry say so, and Gallary and Sergey were indeed outstanding. Therefore, everyone has nothing to say.

A week later, Henry announced: "The candidate for the group has been determined. His name is Eric Schmidt. Before that, he served as the chairman and CEO of the company, responsible for the company’s strategic planning, management and technological development. Also a member of Apple’s board of directors!"

   In previous lives, the myth was created by the "troika": Larry Page, Sergey Brin and Eric Schmidt. Without the founder, there would be no search technology and unique innovative spirit, and without Eric Schmidt, there would be no astounding earning power and the strength to reshape the Internet landscape. The evaluation of Eric Schmidt by the people of Silicon Valley is: "Schmidt is definitely a pivotal person, and his experience is so rich that he can be called an old fox in the industry."

   Therefore, for the smooth development of the future. "Troika", Henry recruited all! ! !

   After a period of running-in, Eric Schmidt quickly adapted to the new environment. After understanding the company's situation, he began to re-formulate a new development strategy. And Larry Page and Sergey Brin also carried out their work very smoothly.

   Everything started to go on track.

   Henry seems to be vaguely able to see the rise of the future technology giants!

   Gradually, more than two months later, a major event that caused a worldwide sensation happened!

   On June 25, 1999, Gene Umbrella Company held a global press conference to announce, "Gene Umbrella Company independently completed all human genome sequencing work on June 24, 1999!!!"

   This news shocked the industry and couldn't believe it!

   The Human Genome Project is one of the largest international cooperation projects in the world. Just a week ago, the Human Genome Project joint research team composed of 216 scientists from the United Kingdom, the United States, Japan, and China officially announced that the human body has 23 pairs of chromosomes, and they have completely deciphered the genetic code of the 22nd pair of chromosomes in the human body. , Determined the exact position of the 33.4 million base pairs contained in all protein-coding genes on the pair of chromosomes! This 22nd pair of chromosomes is the second smallest pair, and studies have shown that it is related to the immune system, congenital heart disease, schizophrenia, unresponsiveness and leukemia, and a variety of cancers.

   This news once caused a shock in the industry. It can be said that mankind has completed the determination of the complete sequence of human chromosomal genes for the first time, and scientists generally believe that this is another breakthrough in the scientific field of mankind. The words are still in my ears, my **** is not hot yet. A week later, the Gene Umbrella Company jumped out and said that they had completed all the sequencing of the human genome. In other words, the 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human body have been cracked!

   This Nima is simply hanging up to the sky, and Gene Umbrella can directly hit the world!

   Many people did not believe it, and they voiced doubts.

   Many scientists also appeared on television to criticize the Gene Umbrella Company for lying, claiming that Gene Umbrella had the ability to publish the sequencing data, so that people can argue the authenticity.

   Regarding this, Gene Umbrella Company dismissed it, I believe it or not!

   What is the strength of the Gene Umbrella, and how much manpower and material resources did it use? Only 216 scientists from the other side have completed the sequencing of a pair of chromosomes, let alone a powerful and unmatched gene umbrella company?

   In addition, this gene sequencing data will never be published. Because the data recorded in this gene sequencing is Henry's gene!

  Henry spared no expense to develop the Gene Umbrella Company ~lightnovelpub.net~ The purpose is to solve his own gene mutation problem as soon as possible. Therefore, there is no doubt that the first human gene sequenced must be Henry's gene.

   Currently, gene sequencing is extremely expensive and time-consuming. It took more than two years to complete Henry's gene sequencing work, and it cost a total of 100 million US dollars! If this is left in ten or twenty years, one hundred dollars can be settled, and not even a day!

   Therefore, Gene Umbrella Company has been committed to researching accelerated gene sequencing technology, and has also summarized and invented many technologies over the years. Sequencing tools and technologies have been improved, not only reducing costs, but also greatly increasing the speed of gene sequencing.

   The hospital acquired by Henry has been collecting human blood and establishing a database. In the future, once genetic sequencing technology has made breakthroughs, these can be sequenced. At that time, by comparing the patient's physical symptoms with the gene sequencing data, and then using big data technology for analysis, the code of human genes can be cracked to the greatest extent. This also means that mankind's exploration of the mysteries of the body will take the most important step!

   Henry is browsing his own genetic data, and at the same time, he also compares the genetic data of some healthy people. The computer can display the difference between the two on the screen. Henry himself is also a biotechnologist. He frowned when he looked at the screen, and as he checked more data, his brows became deeper and deeper.
