Heads Up Hollywood

Tang En's puzzled expression did not escape the eyes of the two old fellows.

Lei Shidong seems to have forgotten the conflicts he had with Tang En in the past, or he is now facing a very important decision, so important that he can ignore the grievances with Tang En.

"This is actually a medical project." Lei Shidong pulled Tang En to sit down.

"Pharmaceutical project?"

Tang En's eyes widened, and he was even more surprised.

What's the meaning?

Everyone is in the media circle and the entertainment circle. The three giants meet, but they want to discuss medical projects?

Invest to make money?

What are you doing!

Murdoch hurriedly said: "Tang En, don't get me wrong, this is not a commercial project, but a draft in the conception stage of a university laboratory."

Tang En frowned, "What's going on?"

Lei Shidong said: "You know, I graduated from Harvard. This year, I was also invited to attend Harvard's graduation ceremony. Although I didn't speak to the children on stage, I also participated in some important activities organized by Harvard officials. David Sinclair, a professor of medicine, I chatted with him for a few words, probably... I think he only talked for 20 seconds, and he described his project ideas, and he was very impressed."

Tang En gave him a deep look.

Although this Mr. Redstone is his defeat, he is still the leader of the United States. It is undoubtedly an important project that can shock him deeply.

Lei Shidong went on to say: "His project is really...really incredible. Once successful, it is likely to change the course of human life and the status quo of the world. I am very excited, but I am not sure. Coincidentally, Xin Professor Clare is an Australian."

Murdoch is also Australian.

Whether an entrepreneurial project will work or not, the first thing to look at is not whether the project itself is good enough, but whether the entrepreneur can do it.

If you want to find out the background of Professor David Sinclair, Murdoch is definitely the best candidate.

The news newspaper market in Australia is almost completely controlled by Murdoch.

At this time, Murdoch added: "I investigated him for two weeks, he is a genius. As early as more than ten years ago, he worked in the laboratory of the famous biologist Cynthia Kenyon, and experimentally verified Single-gene mutation... Well, I don't know the exact term, but it is a major discovery of human DNA sequence. At that time, he was only 22 years old, and he won... er, a very authoritative medical award."

The medical industry is too professional, and Murdoch can't explain many proper terms at all.

But Tang En understood the specific meaning. This Professor David Sinclair from Harvard Medical School is a genius!

Murdoch said: "From the behavior and past resume, there is nothing wrong with this Professor Sinclair."

Lei Shidong added: "At the age of 30, he was hired as a professor by Harvard Medical School. Yes, it was the year your girlfriend was studying at Harvard. In 2004...that is, last year, he accepted the appointment of the philanthropist Paul Green donated 5 million U.S. dollars, and he has his own medical research laboratory. However, his project is really too...so great, this is almost an eternal topic of human beings. 5 million U.S. dollars is not enough at all.”

Tang En asked: "The school doesn't provide funding?"

Lei Shidong said: "Even Harvard can't afford such a big project."

Tang En pondered for a while, and asked directly: "What kind of project is it? I know it's in the medical field, but which field is it? It's related to the DNA sequence of the human body?"

Lei Shidong said solemnly: "That's true, but it's not just a scientific research project. Once it succeeds, it will have very important practical significance!"

"What do you mean?"

"Extend life!"

"boom!"

Tang En's mind was buzzing. He was originally annoyed and irritable, but the resentment in his heart suddenly disappeared, his spirit tensed up, and he sat up straight.

Extend life!

This is indeed an eternal transcendent topic for human beings!

That's it, that's it!

No wonder the two old guys, Murdoch and Redstone, got together and described this matter with all kinds of exaggeration and solemnity.

At their age, work, career, wealth, and family really don't matter.

The most important thing is to be able to extend life, to be able to live for a few more years!

In fact, Twain also understands that this kind of old super rich will definitely carry out some life-extending behaviors secretly.

For example, the current popular exchange transfusion therapy. There is also a more bloody way, which can completely replace the internal organs of the body.

For example, David Rockefeller, the patriarch of the Rockefeller family, has already had five hearts replaced, and is currently planning to replace the sixth heart.

Another example is Hugh Hefner, the founder of "Playboy". He will soon be 80 years old, and his body is still as strong as a young man. Every day... he wants to sleep with 7 women!

Although he said that he is getting old and unable to do what he wants, and that it should be enough when he is 80 years old, and it is better to reduce the number of women to 3-4, but this is shocking enough.

This combat power is stronger than Twain!

Is this something normal people can do?

There must be the support of brilliant medical methods behind this!

Apple's Steve Jobs was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year.

What is pancreatic cancer? This is the scariest type of cancer!

People who are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer will die within 9 months!

However, 9 months have already passed.

Jobs teamed up with top institutions such as Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Stanford University to sequence his own genome. He went to Switzerland and underwent the most advanced fetal receptor radioisotope therapy. The cancer was almost cured without even chemotherapy. . If repeated in the future, liver replacement can also be performed, as well as a variety of advanced backup plans.

It is not a big problem to live another seven or eight years, and it is a very high-quality life.

This is simply impossible for ordinary people.

Wealth cannot buy life, but wealth can prolong life, which is the consensus of the medical profession today.

Both Murdoch and Redstone are in their seventies and eighties. According to the logic of normal people, they should have retired long ago. Because at this age, people are too old to control the company. There are also many world-class rich men, such as Li Chaoren and Buffett. They are nearly ninety years old and can still maintain a shrewd mind and business sensitivity. It is unimaginable that there must be medical assistance behind them.

Tang En is still very young now, and his physical condition is very good. He doesn't need external medical methods to maintain his vitality and energy.

However, everyone will grow old one day.

Really waited until that day, just like Murdoch and Redstone, the meaning of more money and less money is no longer significant, prolonging life and living longer is the pursuit.

Tang En took a deep breath, his eyes burning, "You mean... this is a medical project that may prolong life?"

Lei Shidong nodded solemnly, "Because of lack of funds, this project is still in the testing stage of cell tissue, and has not entered the real drug development. I don't know the specific principle. Generally speaking, human beings will have billions of drugs in their lifetime. Cell division, while maintaining the normal operation of the body, various problems will continue to arise. When the cell problems accumulate to a certain extent, the body will not be able to repair the damage and eventually become exhausted. Professor Sinclair’s research found that there is a An enzyme, its concentration affects the aging of cells. The decrease of concentration will accelerate cell aging; the concentration of stability will maintain the normal function of cells. If this enzyme is made into medicine and kept stable, it can greatly delay the aging of human beings !even……"

"Even what?"

"Even humans may live to be 150 years old!"

Tang En was dumbfounded.

God!

With the current medical technology, as long as the financial resources are sufficient and there is no extreme serious behavior such as poison and alcohol, it is not a dream to live to 90 or 100 years old.

But 150 years old is too exaggerated.

It's really against the sky!

When Dunn turns 150 years old... that will be 100 years later.

At that time, with the further development of science and technology and the further improvement of medical care, maybe immortality is not a fantasy!

"is this real?"

Tang En's heart was beating wildly, it was unbelievable.

This is really a bit mysterious.

When it came to this topic, he, like Murdoch and Redstone, completely forgot the conflicts that had occurred in the past few years.

When it comes to prolonging life, everyone has a very consistent goal.

Lei Shidong shook his head, "I don't know!"

Tang En didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I don't know?"

Murdoch said: "I really don't know. This kind of thing... is too shocking after all. We don't understand medicine, but I have consulted many doctors of medicine. Some people support it, some people oppose it, and there are different opinions."

Tang En took a deep breath and muttered to himself: "It's really surprising."

"Yeah, until today, I still can't believe it." Lei Shidong echoed, "Tang En, you have to make up your mind about this matter."

"Ah? Me?" Tang En was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"

Murdoch said: "The survey results show that in the United States, it takes 10 to 15 years to develop a new drug, and the average cost is 500 million US dollars. If it is this magic drug that delays aging... I am afraid that the cost will be even more expensive. Moreover, it is only a scientific research laboratory of Harvard Medical School, and it needs the support of pharmaceutical companies."

Yes, investing costs money.

Especially this kind of elixir, the price must be higher.

$1 billion may not even work!

This is different from investing in other industries.

Even the high-tech industry in Silicon Valley, which has the highest investment risk, is supported by real data and industrial scale. Investing in drugs is completely different. The process is at a loss and the results are unpredictable. In many cases, drug development fails, and no one knows where it failed.

In the United States, on average, 200 pharmaceutical R\u0026D projects are required to succeed in 1 project.

The odds are too low!

Tang En smiled wryly, "I don't understand medical treatment either!"

Lei Shidong said: "But you have a good vision, don't you? We have all seen your performance in the past few years. I have consulted many medical experts about this project. Nonsense. We two old guys can't figure out the way, but I feel...you must make the best choice."

"I?"

Dunn was in a daze.
