Chapter 43-I don’t need to breathe anymore

night.

Xinmeiyuan Restaurant, inside the box.

“Lu Li, congratulations.”

“Congratulations.”

Professor Xu, Professor Tian and others raised their wine glasses with smiles on their faces.

Lu Li also raised his glass and drank it in one fell swoop.

“Lu Li, the AIDS drug can already be used in clinical applications. You will start production too. Has the problem of start-up funding been resolved? If you have any difficulties, I will help you find a solution.”

After drinking for a while, Professor Xu said.

“Thank you, teacher.” Lu Li said quickly, “I have received a 1 billion loan from ICBC, so don’t bother you.”

“That’s good.”

Professor Xu laughed when he heard the words.

Professor Tian also smiled slightly. He knows that many foreign companies want to obtain technical materials for AIDS specific drugs from Lu Li. Since Lu Li has solved the funding problem, they will not sell technical materials, so this technology is Staying in the country allows the country to maintain its leading position in this technology field.

The principal was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized in an instant that Lu Li got the loan long ago, and he went to meet those people to save him face.

Suddenly, his liking for Lu Li increased a lot.

He picked up the wine glass and said, “Come, let’s go. If you have anything in the future, whether it is school-related or private, just tell me.”

Lu Li also picked up the wine glass and drank it. Then he said, “Principal, I really want to ask you for help. My future energy is mainly on study and research, and the operation of the company is handed over to professional managers. People, seniors in our school, there should be a lot of talents in this field, can you introduce some to me.”

The principal said immediately: “No problem.”

…

Leaving Xinmeiyuan Restaurant, Lu Li returned to the rented house under the escort of Ning Wei and others.

bath.

Change clothes.

Then he lay down on the sofa and continued to study the pine cells.

About half an hour later, Lu Li felt itchy.

He felt that he had reached a certain level of understanding of chloroplasts, and he could try to make chloroplasts in his own cells.

Do it when you think of it.

Lu Li immediately selected a cell on his right hand, using the chloroplast of the pine tree cell as a template to create a chloroplast.

The whole process is actually very simple.

It is nothing more than combining C, O, H and other atoms into molecules, and then combining them into chloroplasts.

With the help of the cell editor, he completed the process in just ten seconds.

“Huh? This chloroplast does not photosynthesize?”

About a minute later, Lu Li was disappointed to find that things were not as simple as he thought.

Although there is already a chloroplast in that cell, it is not compatible with the chloroplast, causing the chloroplast to not work properly.

However, Lu Li was not discouraged. He began to study the chloroplasts of pine cells in depth to figure out the working mechanism of chloroplasts.

One hour passed.

Two hours passed.

Three hours passed.

“Haha, finally succeeded!”

Lu Li laughed excitedly. Through in-depth analysis of hundreds of gene fragments of chloroplasts and his own understanding of human cells, he made subtle modifications to his cells and successfully made his cells compatible with chloroplasts.

Just now, in the cell he used for the experiment, the chloroplast successfully photosynthesized.

Of course, only he dared to modify his genes so madly, and only he could complete this incredible experiment.

“Well, continue to transform cells so that more cells can perform photosynthesis.”

Thanks to the cell editor, Lu Li doesn’t have to worry about irreversible consequences, and boldly continues the experiment.

One cell, two cells, three cells…

Before long, all the epidermal cells on the palm of Lu Li’s right hand possessed chloroplasts, which could also perform photosynthesis, absorb energy from light, and convert carbon dioxide and water into organic matter and oxygen.

However, this comes at a price. The palm of his right hand has turned pale green.

“If all the epidermal cells of the whole body are modified in this way, it seems that they will become…the Mekker?”

Lu Li thinks of the Namek in Dragon Ball. The skin is green and has a function similar to plant photosynthesis. As long as you drink water, you can use photosynthesis to produce starch to meet the needs of physiological functions. If you transform humans into that shape, it seems Not bad?

“However, with the current concept of human beings, it should be difficult to accept, right? And the process is not that simple. I have a cell editor so I dare to modify genes wantonly. It is difficult for ordinary people to accept genetic modification.”

Lu Li shook his head slightly, temporarily gave up the idea of ​​promoting this technology, and continued with the next experiment. He held his breath and stopped breathing.

Ordinary people can hold their breath for 50 seconds to 1.5 minutes. Those who have undergone conscious exercise can hold their breath for 3 to 4 minutes. The world record for holding breath is 22 minutes.

Lu Li wants to try, how long can he hold his breath now.

One minute passed.

Two minutes passed.

Ten minutes passed.

One hour passed.

Lu Li did not feel any discomfort at all, because the chloroplasts in the epidermal cells on the palm of his right hand had been photosynthesizing, absorbing carbon dioxide, generating oxygen, and entering the body.

In other words, he was actually breathing all the time, but the breathing method was different.

“Niu Bian!”

Lu Li patted his thigh with excitement. At this moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and an idea came to his mind: “Although it is difficult for humans to accept this technology, I can use it to transform animals. Can perform photosynthesis… Although I don’t know what this experiment will do, it’s very interesting to think about it.”*
