Chapter 497: Give birth to a child for the future of mankind

Chen Xinjie pushed the door open and walked in, graceful and graceful, carrying a gust of fragrant wind.

She put the teacup in her hand in front of Luo Yuan and gently reminded her in her ear: "Mayor, there are still ten minutes left before the meeting."

In the past two years, not only has the great development of science and technology, but the personnel of the municipal government have also undergone some changes. Some people have been dismissed due to corruption or cannot keep up with the situation, and some people have also been promoted.

His former secretary, Cheng Guanghui, was transferred to a new job and took office as director of the Industrial Bureau, and the position of secretary who was free of charge was also served by Chen Xinjie.

Of course, for Cheng Guanghui, such promotion may not be a joy. While being independent, it also means being away from the core level.

In fact, Luo Yuan did not have any objections to Cheng Guanghui, nor did he have some inhumane thoughts. Everything was just a normal organizational mobilization.

Generally speaking, the secretary around the leader will not be transferred if he serves for more than three years. On the one hand, it is to not stop his subordinates' future, and on the other hand, it is to avoid theft of the power of the senior management.

After all, as his secretary, he is his spokesperson and mouthpiece. Every move represents his will, or in the eyes of others, his will. Especially in this era of power gathered together, the power and influence of the secretary are even greater than that of other members of the Standing Committee.

This is undoubtedly an abnormal phenomenon!

The most important thing to choose Chen Xinjie as her secretary is to know her roots. She has little desire for power and is extremely principled. What's more, than other people who Luo Yuan is not familiar with, he naturally believes in the people around him more.

Luo Yuan is also inseparable from this aspect.

Luo Yuan looked at the time and said, "It's still early, I'll talk about this pile of documents."

Chen Xinjie did not disturb her anymore and left quickly. Luo Yuan finished processing the several documents in front of her, then got up and tidyed her clothes, walked out of the office, and Chen Xinjie from the Secretariat picked up the information and followed immediately.

Taking advantage of the free time on the road, Chen Xinjie whispered: "Is the fertility rate of human beings so low now?"

"It has been like this since the end of the world. Although unlocking the virus has not mutated most humans, subtle changes have occurred. The differences between individual humans are more than ten times that of humans before the end of the world, which seriously affects the fertility rate." Luo Yuan said in a heavy tone.

In order to promote the sins of the Boscos, the unlocking virus, an evil virus that triggers the mutation of the earth's organisms and thus leads to the large-scale death of humans, has been made public for a long time. Chen Xinjie has naturally heard of it and is not unfamiliar with it.

After chatting for a few words, the two of them were almost walking to the conference room. When the guards at the door saw the two of them coming in, they were immediately shocked and opened the door of the conference room.

This meeting was not a high-level meeting, but a policy seminar. Except for senior leaders and the participants were mostly well-known scientists and professors.

No time wasted, as soon as Luo Yuan came in, the meeting began under his presidency.

"This is the latest statistics on the newborns of major hospitals in the past two years. As of now, only 3,320 people have been born. This terrible low fertility rate is completely unsustainable for the race. If no measures are taken, humans will probably eventually become extinct for up to five hundred years! I think the specific information has been posted to you and I have already read it. If you have any countermeasures, everyone can speak freely. In addition, they will also talk about cloning humans, and talk about their own ideas." Luo Yuan said.

Chen Xinjie in the corner quickly recorded the meeting minutes, and looked at Luo Yuan from time to time. In her heart, Luo Yuan was the most charming time at this time.

"Dear mayor and leaders, I am against cloning. With our current technology, it is indeed not difficult to cloning. However, simply increasing the population will not improve the fertility rate. Unless humans give up natural fertility in the future and rely entirely on cloning to maintain racial continuity, this will have a huge impact on the current human society. The social model of family units in the past will collapse and society will be in chaos. I think to address this phenomenon of low fertility, we will study special drugs and slowly draw it. This is still a long-term way." A social science professor with white hair from a university stood up and said heavily.

Luo Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this, but he didn't expect that the first person to speak came out to oppose cloning.

"I think this old professor is a bit too conservative. Every social progress will bring an impact on society. The matriarchal era of primitive society, the era of clans gathering in the feudal era, and the era of small families before the end of the world have all explained it all.

The development of productivity will naturally impact the original society, which is inevitable and inevitable. Moreover, there is not much left in humans now, and space is not a safe place. Before humans can completely resolve the crisis, I think it is really a bit inconsistent with the primary and secondary impact of cloning." As soon as the words were finished, a scientist stood up and opposed.

He is quite young, and seems to be less than thirty years old, but in today's era, there are almost everywhere such scientists. However, youth also means that he is easy to accept new things. Compared with those conservative old-school scholars, he is undoubtedly much more radical.

Luo Yuan did not agree with this. Cloning is naturally a powerful medicine to solve population problems, and the effect is immediate, but violent medicines often have serious side effects. Even in the era of reconstruction zones, humans are under tremendous survival pressure, and cloning is just a secret and unfair to the public.

Now the pressure of survival has temporarily disappeared. Once cloning humans is noticed by the public, it may cause a sensation and cause huge controversy. Although he can vigorously promote it, his reputation among the people will also fall to the bottom. Therefore, even if Luo Yuan had the idea of ​​cloning, he must be very cautious.

"I agree with part of the old professor's opinion. Of course, I do not oppose human cloning, but I just oppose unplanned cloning. I think it's time for humans to write the human genetic plan again!" At this time, Director Wu also stood up. Because of the artificial synthetic smart potion project, he was once the greatest authority in genes. Unfortunately, it has not been achieved until one or two years later. Now it is almost **********:

"This time, of course, it is not the previous gene sequencing, but to understand the functions of various genomes and write a complete genome functional map. We need to redefine human genetic standards and delete individualized genes that are affected by unlocking viruses and hindering reproduction and some genetic defects left in the evolutionary process. At that time, we can achieve eugenicity and eugenicity when fertilized eggs..."

The old man, at first, thought the other party was supporting his point of view, but he didn't expect that the more he listened, the more he heard it, the more outrageous it became. This point was even more radical than the one before, and it was completely unacceptable to him. Before he could finish speaking, he stood up and interrupted angrily: "Absurd, is this still a human? This is an industrial product in the factory, it's simply ridiculous."

"As a genetic researcher, in my eyes, there is not much difference between humans and industrial products." Director Wu immediately retorted without giving in: "Life is not that sacred, and evolution can also interfere. The development of science and technology is to serve humans themselves. Since we have better technology, why not replenish ourselves? A better human and a longer lifespan will be another driving force for the development of human civilization!"

The venue suddenly became noisy, and everyone whispered to each other or argued quietly. As time went by, the scene became more and more lively.

"Please keep the discipline of the venue!" Luo Yuan had to remind that if the argument continues like this, it is possible for the conservatives and radicals on both sides to fight. Of course, both young people are more inclined toward radicals. Compared with the somewhat dull conservatives, radicals undoubtedly represent the vitality of today's human civilization.

But then again, being too radical will also make most people unacceptable. In this position, he must balance the views between the two factions and take a safe plan.

Luo Yuan pondered slightly and said, "The discussion is very intense, but I think cloning and natural fertility are not contradictory, and we cannot be slaughtered because of the negative impact of cloning. Many couples now want a child, and maybe they can provide fertilized egg services for people with this need."

"I agree with the mayor's point of view!" Bi Jianping next to him immediately cooperated: "As long as the publicity is done well, there will be a great demand in this regard. For example, 'having a child for the future of mankind!'"

...

The plan proposed by Luo Yuan was naturally passed without dispute, but this does not mean that the plan can be implemented immediately. There are still many things to be done. First of all, the cloned person looks the same, which is also the problem that humans are most worried about. If this problem is not solved, it will seriously affect the effect of the specific implementation.

However, there is no obstacle in this. I am afraid no one would have thought that he is the real authority for human genes. He has compiled a functional spectrum of the human genome almost alone, including tens of thousands of evolutionary genes. His powerful body and clones with different men and women in his family are the best answer.

In addition, with the help of the Boscos experimental equipment, humans already have the ability to directly edit genes microscopically. It is estimated that as long as it takes another year or two, all conditions will mature.

Moreover, Luo Yuan’s previous plan was just a temporary solution, just a transition. When humans began to give birth to cloned children and gradually accepted the existence of cloned people, the time for large-scale cloning will also mature.

After the meeting, he asked the genetic scientists to stay and continue the meeting.

In the afternoon of the same day, a large research institute called the "Human Genome Optimization Project" was established. In the following days, through administrative orders, more and more researchers were transferred to the institute.
