Genius of the Rules-Style System

The Microbiology Technology Laboratory, including Wei Shiqing, Bai Jianwu, and the main researcher Li Renzhe, all attach great importance to the mutant Rhodospirillum, especially with Zhao Yi's approval, and they all participated in the testing work together.

After three days of detailed testing, the characteristics and detailed data of the fifth-generation mutant Rhodospirillum were detected and listed in a form.

Zhao Yi received the form when he was in the office of the School of Science. He was doing research on spatial mathematics, and he immediately stopped thinking and started reading.

"The fifth-generation mutant Rhodospirillum will perform photosynthesis similar to that of plants. The product of the reaction is the formation of macromolecular organic matter, which will subsequently synthesize a large number of acidic enzymes to support metabolic operations within the cell."

"These acidic enzymes can break down various organic matter, including proteins, and the products will continue to participate in photosynthesis similar to plants."

"This forms a metabolic cycle. In other words, the growth and reproduction of mutant Rhodospirillum mainly rely on the decomposition of organic matter."

"But at the same time, a lot of oxygen is secreted."

"The reaction process is similar to photosynthesis of plants, and the amount of oxygen produced is also very large——"

Zhao Yi looked at the data carefully.

The data was tested over a one-day period. It only gives a general range, but it is still highlighted. After a quick glance and a rough estimate, you will know how amazing the data is.

The fifth-generation mutant Rhodospirillum secretes a very large amount of oxygen. Only one square meter of mutant Rhodospirillum can produce as much oxygen as a small patch of shrubs.

This data is quite astonishing.

One square meter of Rhodospirillum sounds like a lot. In fact, it is calculated based on a 'single layer laying'. The total amount of bacteria in the culture tank in the laboratory is enough to cover an area of ​​several square meters.

At the same time, there is another data, "When the oxygen concentration in the air exceeds 25%, Rhodospirillum will die in large numbers. The death process of Rhodospirillum is the reversal of metabolism, that is, it decomposes a large number of acid enzymes and absorbs oxygen. Convert to carbon dioxide, and finally lose nutrients and die?"

"this--"

"I see!"

Zhao Yi finally figured out what happened. No wonder the color of the culture tank where a large number of Rhodospirillum bacteria died changed.

In addition, not all the bacteria in the culture tank die, some of them will always survive, and the survival status is very good, as if they are not affected in any way.

This is probably how mutant Rhodospirillum survives and reproduces.

Even in 'extremely harsh' environments, their race-protecting genes are activated and reverse metabolism to release the carbon dioxide needed for survival and reproduction, providing a better living environment for other bacteria.

"Probably, this is the greatness of a kind of bacteria!" Zhao Yi was filled with emotion when looking at the report.

Each race has its own way of survival.

Many organisms will even give up their own lives in order to reproduce. This is true for as small as Rhodospirillum. They can give up and sacrifice themselves in the hope of providing a better environment for the population.

Isn’t this also true for humans?

Many heroes are willing to give up their lives in difficult times to protect others and provide a better living environment.

Even if they know that their role is very small, they will do it without hesitation.

So they are heroes.

"Great!" Zhao Yi felt that he should give a thumbs up to the mutated Rhodospirillum. Of course, under the law of the jungle, the mutated Rhodospirillum can only be used as a tool.

This is also something that can't be helped.

What Zhao Yi values ​​​​more is the powerful effect of mutant Rhodospirillum metabolism to produce oxygen.

Even the current data is already very amazing. If placed in a lunar base, it can completely replace the role of plants.

This is only talking about the lunar base. In an industrial system, the role of mutant Rhodospirillum will be greater.

For example, sewage treatment and organic waste treatment.

Mutated Rhodospirillum can be used to remove organic matter inside and decompose a large amount of oxygen at the same time.

In food processing, medical and other fields, Rhodospirillum mutans may also play a very important role.

Of course, everything still needs to be excavated slowly.

After reading the data report, Zhao Yi immediately went to the Microbiology Technology Laboratory. When he entered the door, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "I read the report, it's amazing!"

"What an amazing discovery and research! Congratulations, Lao Li, you are going to become famous!"

Li Renzhe and Wei Shiqing were looking at the data together. The experimental research was mainly done by the two of them. Bai Jianwu also participated in the test for Rhodospirillum.

Although Bai Jianwu is not in the experimental team, he is a pillar-level researcher in the Microbial Technology Laboratory. The research will also be carried out by the Microbial Technology Laboratory, so he participated directly.

"I've known for a long time that this research is very powerful." Li Renzhe said with a smile, "But thank you for the reminder, Zhao Yi."

"You're welcome, it's really awesome!"

Zhao Yi did not directly dismantle the problem, but said, "There are still directions for the follow-up of this research. I think we can continue to cultivate it, for example, let it adapt to various environments, or continue to enhance metabolic intensity."

Everyone in the laboratory listened carefully.

"This is also the direction of mutation research." Zhao Yidao said, "If we can continue to enhance it in one aspect, the application space will definitely be wider in the future."

"It's hard to tell for this research now. I think it can at least win an international medical award. Once it's widely used, it wouldn't be surprising to win a Nobel."

The Nobel Prize in Medicine is very proactive in its application.

Most of the Nobel Prizes in Medicine in the academic field are awarded to new research methods. For example, the discovery of gene cutting technology can bring broad space for gene research.

In order to win the Nobel Prize in Medicine, research on medicine and microbiology-related technologies must be widely used. For example, a new drug needs to cure many people and benefit a large number of people before it can win the prize.

The research on mutated Rhodospirillum is also a kind of microbial technology research. It needs to be widely used before it can win the Nobel Prize in Medicine.

Although Zhao Yi said that he could only win the award after it was 'widely used', hearing the word 'Nobel' made several people in the laboratory excited.

That is the Nobel Prize in Medicine, to be precise, the Nobel Prize in Biomedicine. Not to mention winning this award, even being nominated as a candidate is already very impressive.

Zhao Yi is thinking about another thing, which is to bring mutated Rhodospirillum bacteria to the moon and build an ultra-small laboratory for research.

The environment of the moon is completely different from that of the earth's surface, but laboratory means can be used to create an environment.

If mutated Rhodospirillum can reproduce on a large scale on the moon, it can be placed in the lunar base and replace the plants inside to perform photosynthesis to produce oxygen, or in other words, work with the plants to improve the internal environment of the lunar base.

To achieve this, relevant experiments must be conducted in advance, and the experiments must be placed on the moon.

"Then you need a biologist, preferably a microbiologist."

"The level does not need to be too high, it needs to be of a certain level, and it needs to be young and strong."

"It should be easy to recruit such a person, right?"

Zhao Yi thought for a while and suddenly thought of a character.

Li Renzhe!

Going to the moon is definitely a very good opportunity. It is a great progress for my personal career, and it will also have great development in the future.

Putting 'ordinary microbiologists' and 'space microbiologists' together, even if their research levels are the same, their resumes, salaries, and achievements are definitely very different.

Zhao Yi thought for a while and decided to tell Li Renzhe that good opportunities should be left to friends. If friends refuse, it's okay to consider other people.

He found Li Renzhe the next day, and the two went to the cafeteria to eat together, and they started talking during the meal.

"Old Li, have you ever considered working on the moon? Just treat it as a business trip and it will only take about three months."

"puff!"

Li Renzhe was taking a sip of orange juice, and then he squirted out the juice.

"Sister!" Zhao Yi said two words forcefully and quickly cleaned up.

"I@#￥%...\u0026"

Li Renzhe spat out several curse words in a row, and then felt that his personal qualities were being questioned by the people around him. He finally calmed down, took several deep breaths, and said, "You'd better find someone else for this kind of good thing. I won't do it."

"Damn, go to the moon? You can't even think of that! I'm not going!"

"Now I am a teacher at the university, and I have made breakthroughs in research. The future is bright. How can I go to the moon? What if-"

He kept shaking his head as he spoke.

Obviously.

Li Renzhe does not have the consciousness of astronauts, he is just an ordinary person.

Zhao Yi said with some regret, "Well, I just want to ask you. If you want to go, you must give priority. Then I will find someone else."

"no!"

Li Renzhe suddenly came to his senses, waved his hand vigorously, and said with a wry smile, "Zhao Yi, I don't think we are friends at all, but enemies. Otherwise, how can you give me a problem? What do you want me to do with this kind of problem?"

"--Ha ha."

Zhao Yi didn't know what to say. He thought about it carefully and felt that he was indeed a little reckless, because Li Renzhe was just an ordinary person.

When ordinary people face the opportunity to work in space, they will definitely have conflicts and entanglements in their hearts.

This is indeed a difficult problem.

It’s not that Li Renzhe has never been to the sky. He has taken a sightseeing boat. It is said that when he came down, he felt very bad. The experience of working on the moon and taking a sightseeing boat are definitely not on the same level.

However, I have to say that working on the moon is a very rare opportunity. If the news is released, I don’t know how many people will rush to sign up.

Everyone hopes for great development in their career, but right in front of them is a one-in-a-million opportunity to go to the moon to do research. No scientist in history has been able to have this privilege.

He would become the first scientist in history to work on the moon.

He will become a hero of scientific research.

After returning to the earth, with his experience of working on the moon, he will become famous, no matter what happens in the future. Even if you don’t do it, you can enjoy it for a lifetime.

Of course, opportunities and dangers coexist.

If you go to the moon, you may not be able to come back. Even if you have sufficient confidence in aerospace technology, three months of working and living on the moon is not easy to survive.

In addition, salary is also one aspect.

Now Li Renzhe still earns a salary of more than 10,000 yuan, which can't even support his family. Together with his wife Huang Wenqian, the salary is just enough for daily expenses and a little savings.

If you can go to the moon, just for the "ascension subsidy", you can easily get a million, which will save you more than ten years of hard work. If you go to higher places, you will even less work for decades or a lifetime.

When I come back, I can still have the title of 'space microbiologist', and I can look forward to it in terms of fame, position, and salary.

——

Zhao Yi just thinks the opportunity is good and will definitely give priority to his friends. Anyway, it is just a job opportunity for him. It depends on Li Renzhe himself whether he takes it or not.

In fact, the risk of landing on the moon is not high, because the relevant technology has matured. As long as there are no major problems with personal operation, there will be no direct life danger.

Of course.

Faced with the problem of long-term work on the moon, no one can guarantee that there will be no danger. Perhaps some physical diseases may occur due to long-term work, accidental exposure to radiation, or long-term weightlessness.

There are also good things. For example, working on the moon will definitely not be done by one person. It is also impossible for a biologist to stay on the moon alone. There will definitely be astronauts together.

The specific choice depends on Li Renzhe.

The research work on the moon is still very important. Zhao Yi hopes to do "directed mutation of mutated Rhodospirillum in harsh environments" so that mutated Rhodospirillum can continue to mutate and gradually adapt to more harsh environments.

It would be great if the mutated Rhodospirillum bacteria could become an 'oxygen-producing machine'. If it mutates to a certain extent, it can even be expected to become a 'planet transformer', allowing the planet that is severely deficient in oxygen to slowly become full of oxygen.

Of course, similar research would be very long. Even with his participation, ten or twenty years would be at least ten years. It might take even longer, and it would never be completed in a lifetime.

The biological field is different from other fields, it is a direction that takes a lot of time.

That day, Li Renzhe came home with melancholy. As soon as he sat on the sofa, Huang Wenqian ordered him to 'accompany the baby'. After finally putting the child to sleep, he sat on the sofa again with melancholy and found a pack of cigarettes on the coffee table. I simply picked up one, walked to the balcony, lit it, and took a puff.

"Cough! Cough!"

He usually didn't smoke, so he choked and coughed several times in a row. He simply threw the cigarette into the flower pot and fiddled with it for a long time before extinguishing it.

Huang Wenqian came over.

"Asleep?" Li Renzhe turned his head and asked.

Huang Wenqian nodded lightly, frowned, patted his back, and asked softly, "What's going on? Are you smoking? Aren't you having dinner with Zhao Yi today?"

"yes."

"Then why are you unhappy?"

"Thinking about something."

"What's up?"

Li Renzhe hesitated for a long time but still didn't speak.

Huang Wenqian said dissatisfiedly, "If you have something you can't figure out, just tell me, and I will help you refer to it. Don't keep it in your heart. Keep it in your mind. It makes me feel bad if you do this."

Li Renzhe was very touched after hearing this, and reached out to hold Huang Wenqian in his arms. They were an old couple, and both were a little overweight. The feeling of hugging each other was weird, but there was still a little warmth in this moment.

He simply said it, "Zhao Yi said that there is a good job opportunity, that is-"

"To the moon!"

"ah?"

Huang Wenqian pushed Li Renzhe away and opened her mouth in surprise, "Going to the moon? You? Aren't you dreaming?"

"real!"

"Really?" Huang Wenqian looked at him with doubt, "Although I am also a bit, um, plump, and you are almost catching up with me, how can you still go to the moon with your body? I think if you go to the moon , the first thing to do is definitely to lose weight.”

"If I had a choice for the job of going to the moon, I wouldn't choose someone like you. I might as well find someone with a better figure."

Huang Wenqian said with disgust, which made Li Renzhe feel very sad. He said depressedly, "You mean, I go?"

"No, what I mean is that opportunities are rare. If you were not Zhao Yi's friend, he would not even tell you."

"That's right!" Li Renzhe is still clear about this. If he goes through the normal recruitment process, he will be eliminated within two seconds of the interview.

Huang Wenqian said, "I'm a little worried. Otherwise, I won't go. Anyway, we don't have to do any big business. We just want to live a peaceful life."

"But, opportunities are rare!" Li Renzhe said depressedly.

"How about you go? It's only three months anyway."

"Go to the moon, aren't you afraid of something happening?"

"How about forget it?"

"——!!"

In the end, the two of them still failed to reach a conclusion through consultation. Huang Wenqian was indeed very assertive, but in the face of such a major matter, she could not help Li Renzhe make the decision.

If it were placed on herself, Huang Wenqian would definitely decide to go immediately.

Sacrifice is also a hero!

Li Renzhe didn't have any ideas. He always hesitated.

Until the next morning, Li Renzhe still had not decided.

At this time, he turned on the TV and saw the news that the Yixing transport ship was about to be launched. He saw several astronauts being interviewed before finally making a decision.

"go!"

"I decided to go!"

"When you have a choice, if you don't go, you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life. It's better to go and give it a try! It's decided!"

"I'm going to call bastard Zhao Yi right now!"
