Chapter 2418 Characteristics

After Solina saw Chen Zhao write down a number from Isaac on the check without hesitation.

She immediately confirmed that Isaac's new boss was indeed generous.

Very generous! So generous that she wanted to commit herself to him.

Let alone Solina, Isaac wanted to commit himself to her.

Of course, even without any contract, Isaac would not dare to use the money to stuff his own pocket.

Even if Chen Zhao does not use his own power, relying on Chen Zhao's legal team is enough to keep Isaac in prison for the rest of his life.

"Mr. Chen...boss, which direction do you mainly need me to research?"

Isaac is not the kind of pure scientific researcher. He knows very well that what Chen Zhao needs is not to benefit the world, but to transform their research results into a rate of return.

"Give me a team in the early stage. I don't necessarily need you to come up with any valuable research, but you need to speak up for me when I need it."

Isaac probably understood what Chen Zhao meant.

What Chen Zhao needs is someone who can endorse him in his own professional field.

You can have no merit, but you can't have any mistakes.

Of course, if it can create value for Chen Zhao, that would be the best.

"Solina, can you help me and the boss prepare dinner?" Isaac looked at his wife.

"Of course, I'm happy to help." Solina said understandingly.

After Solina left, Chen Zhao asked: "How long will it take to form your team?"

"It depends on what kind of research team the boss needs. If it is a researcher at the level of my teacher Nanston, it will probably take at least a year to set up."

"I don't need someone like Nanston. What I need is someone you can completely control, and of course, someone I can control, who has professional ability and also has ideals."

"If that's the case, it shouldn't be difficult. One month is enough."

"Okay, I'll give you a month. Also, do you need any professional equipment?"

"A scientific research ship and a deep-sea submarine. These two are the most important and also the most expensive... Boss, I'm afraid the money you gave me..."

"How much do you need?"

"Scientific research vessels and deep-sea submarines also have different price points..."

"The best. In addition, it is best to have something off-the-shelf on the market. I don't want scientific research vessels and deep-sea submarines to have to be customized."

Chen Zhao is impatient, and what he needs is someone who can endorse him, not a team with a scientific research spirit.

"I think it should be within $30 million."

"When you have time, go to these manufacturers and give me a quote. I will send someone to buy them."

There is no need for Isaac to go there in person to buy equipment.

After all, the price is too high.

Even if he was confident, Isaac would not dare to be greedy.

But if Isaac is really hot-headed, it will be troublesome to clean up.

Chen Zhao can give Isaac a huge check at will.

It was because although the money was large, it was not enough for Isaac to give up everything for the money.

But when the money reaches a certain level, that may not be the case.

"Tell me about your recent research on mutant octopuses. What did you find?"

"Boss, I dissected more than a dozen mutant octopuses, and I found that their life cycle is only about fifteen days. Many of their organs have not fully grown, but their bodies have matured. This This results in the incoordination of many of its functions, which also leads to its very short life cycle. Its life is almost spent and ended in constant eating. Various studies have shown that this is not a mature mutant sample, but more like a Made for a certain purpose.”

"To create trouble." Chen Zhao said.

"Yes, that's right, it was created just to cause trouble."

Isaac followed Chen Zhao's words: "There are several major categories of current research in marine biology. One is to obtain medical or inspiration and discovery through the study of marine life. The other direction is to obtain breeding through this kind of research." , breeding data, thereby creating economic benefits. Another type of research is to record the habits, evolution and population evolution history of marine organisms through this kind of research. Of course, there are also some studies with environmental protection and other purposes. But generally speaking, the main purpose of marine biology research is these types, and this mutant octopus is definitely man-made. Secondly, I can’t think of any role this mutant octopus can have besides causing trouble. "

"This kind of mutant octopus has a short life cycle, abnormal brain development, and much lower intelligence than ordinary octopuses. They rely more on instinct for eating and hunting. When they are larvae, they will attach themselves to medium and large fish and eat them. The parasites or floating matter on their bodies will then directly eat the host's body to obtain sufficient nutrients for growth. A fish of about one kilogram can probably provide the food they need for their short life, but "They will leave the host after their exosomes mature and start looking for food that better suits their needs."

Isaac paused and then said: "I put a few rats into the tank with the mutated octopus, and also put in some small fish. Except for one octopus that could be bitten to death by the rat, most of them The first target of the mutated octopuses is mice. They seem to have a special preference for mammals, which makes me suspect that the original purpose of the people who designed and created them was to attack humans. "

"In addition, I also discovered a characteristic of these mutant octopuses."

"What characteristics?"

"Retrospective."

"What is retrospection?"

"Do you know salmon? They will go through many difficulties, return to their place of origin to spawn, and then enter the sea to grow, repeating this for a lifetime. These octopuses also seem to have this characteristic. This is what I accidentally discovered. One of the mutant octopuses grew from After escaping from the water tank, it kept crawling in one direction. It was an absolutely straight crawl. After I found this mutant octopus, I suddenly came up with this idea. Then I conducted experiments with other mutant octopuses and found that some of them have traceability. The instinct to return.”

"Part of it? That means not all?"

"Actually, it's all. It mainly depends on whether they have eaten completely. According to my statistics, after they killed five rats and gnawed part of their bodies, they were almost completely eaten, and then they began to try their best to escape from the water tank. , and then move in one direction.”
