Osborne Megacorp

Chapter 65 I know it’s you

"Measurement, comparison, and positioning are how we record the genetic sequence of every patient with a genetic disease and hope to find a solution."

As Harry walked, he showed Peter Osborn's "Bioera" project.

Compared to a good buddy, the Peter of this world is more like a younger brother to Harry.

Having lived in two lives, Harry's mental age makes it difficult for him to regard Peter Parker, who is still in middle school, as his best friend.

"I know this, gene therapy. Many biotechnology companies are doing this." Peter obviously knows about genes.

In fact, research on genetic diseases has never stopped, and Osborne himself has also done relevant research.

"It seems you have done a lot of research on this." Harry pointed at the cases on the display screen and said:

"Crigler-Najjar syndrome, also known as congenital glucuronosyltransferase deficiency and congenital non-obstructive non-hemolytic jaundice, is a genetic disorder of two types."

"Type 1 was reported in 1952. It is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Most of the parents are consanguineous. I won't go into too many technical details. In short, it is due to the lack of a certain enzyme in the patient's liver cells, which causes a series of diseases. .”

The patient in the picture is a young child. His body is bent backwards like a bow, and he looks very painful.

"Type 2 was reported in 1962. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, and the parents are rarely consanguineous. It also causes abnormal liver cell function."

"The Osborne Group has developed a genetic agent that can modify the problem gene through long-term use, allowing patients to return to normal."

"Of course, there is another treatment method - replacing a liver. The Osborne Group also has artificial liver technology."

Peter's face was filled with adoration.

He once thought Iron Man was cool, as one person could intimidate the entire world and maintain world peace.

But Uncle Ben's almost death changed his view, and he began to pay attention to the Osborne Group's biotechnology, which seemed like magic.

Since launching the Biological Era project, Osborne has used gene therapy to conquer more than 30 genetic diseases and has begun to try to commercialize them - of course, most of the breakthroughs in these genetic diseases have been based on previous research.

Considering that this project has only been started for a few months, this efficiency can be said to be very amazing.

As time passed, Peter saw almost all of Osborne's technological achievements under the leadership of Harry.

This is much more enjoyable than standing in a building 5 kilometers away and watching the big screen display, Peter thought with satisfaction.

"That's all, how do you feel?" Harry stopped and said to Peter with a smile.

"How cool! A few weeks ago I thought the Iron Suit was the best invention in the world, but now it may have to move a bit further. Mr. Osborne, can you tell me about the gene therapy?" ?"

"Of course, but you can call me Harry. I'm actually only a few years older than you."

"Great, Harry, could you tell me about this..."

Harry didn't object to talking about this. He somewhat understood why Tony always had a meaningless smile on his face when giving him physics lessons.

This feeling of being a teacher is really good, especially since the students are talented students who are eager to learn.

Ahem, I was bragging invisibly.

"...Animals have many special abilities that we humans do not have - for example, reptiles generally have the ability to regenerate broken limbs, and ants can lift things 50-100 times their own weight."

"So my father, now the governor, Norman Osborne, decided to start this research." Harry stopped here and looked at Peter.

"Cross-species genetics." Peter also raised his hand in cooperation.

"bingo." Harry smiled and continued:

"For a certain class of organisms, transfer the characteristics of these organisms with different abilities directly or after strengthening them to an organism of the same class - this has the highest probability of success."

Peter listened and jotted down the idea in his notebook.

This kid didn't seem to know that Harry was talking about genetically modified spiders.

"Then find a way to transfer the traits of this 'super creature' to humans so that humans also have these abilities."

At this, Harry noticed that Peter's pen slowed down.

"...For example, in the Arachnids, we have created several super spiders through genetic engineering technology, such as this one, the Delaina spider, a member of the Arachnidae family, which has the ability to jump to capture prey."

Peter's expression became strange.

"This is a web-casting spider, from the family Collectoridae. At the same proportions, the web of this spider is comparable to the high-strength steel cables used on bridges. After improvements, it has better performance and has good electrical conductivity," Osborne The group considered using the spider silk as biological cables, but later came up with a better option."

Peter turned on his phone and looked at the strength coefficient of high-strength steel cables.

"This kind of grass spider has an extremely fast reaction system. Some researchers believe that this reaction has achieved a predictive effect and turned into a foreboding perception of danger. They call it -"

"Spider sense."

When Harry said this, Peter finally stopped writing in his hand.

He raised his head and saw Harry looking at him with a half-smile.

"Uh...Mr. Osborne?"

"I told you, you can call me Harry."

The atmosphere gradually became awkward, and Peter's nimble little mouth couldn't open at this moment.

In order to lighten the atmosphere, Harry played another video.

In the video, a man wearing red pajamas and funny goggles spit out white threads from his hands and kept swinging between the buildings. He used this thing to tie up a thief who was planning to steal a car.

He even caught a car traveling at 40 kilometers per hour with his bare hands.

"Do you know this man?" Harry asked.

"I don't know... No, I know, I mean this guy has been trending on YouTube lately and everyone knows about him, but it could also be CGI or something."

"It's possible, but what I want to say is that this person's abilities are very similar to the genetically modified spider you shot to death a few months ago. Do you understand what I mean?"

Harry took out a small box of white liquid from the table.

"This is the kind of white silk thread, or spider silk. And that goggles... It is understandable that ordinary humans will become very uncomfortable after acquiring super senses."

"A reasonable guess, I mean... This still doesn't dispel the guess that the video may be p, I guess?"

Peter shrugged nervously.

Harry thought he was pretty funny like this, but he was here to play straight.

"Peter, remember when I took a tube of blood from you when I rescued Mr. Parker? I knew it was you, Spider-Man."

Hearing these words, Peter slumped on the back of the sofa as if surrendering.
