"Sample No. 1, the 61st test, begin."
"The human simulation project will start in three seconds."
"Three … Two … One …"
"Start!"
"Extremis X: 003 Serum, officially beginning injection!"
"The total injection volume is 10 ml, the current injection volume is 0.5 mg, the test product data is normal, do you want to increase the injection volume?"
Pioneer Technology. In the laboratory on the third floor of the basement, Maya Hansen, the first developer of Extremis, was observing the data on the computer with a dignified expression.
This is the 61st test of Extremis, but the previous 60 tests added together did not give her as much pressure as this one.
The reason is simple, because of the man standing behind her.
Nagini Tang, the hottest billionaire in the United States. At the age of 24, he has wealth that most people can't even imagine after working for a lifetime.
At the same time, the other party is also a famous director + star, the second shareholder of Stark Corporation, a legend in the investment world, and has a very high social status and influence.
Tony?
Tony, who is the same age, is still studying at MIT, and the two of them are not on the same level at all.
But what made her nervous was not the identity of Nagini, but the fact that Nagini is a shareholder of Pioneer Technology, and he is also the company's main source of income for the development and experiments of Extremis.
In other words, Nagini is the investor of Extremis. Whether or not they can continue the research and whether or not they can let Nagini continue to pay a lot of money depends on this experiment in front of them.
At the same time, sitting next to Nagini was the President of Pioneer Technology and another developer of Extremis – Dr. Killian.
Compared to President Killian, he prefers to be called Dr. Killian.
Located at the back of the laboratory, there was a small table that had just been organized. There were two glasses of milk and a plate of biscuits on the table, and Nagini and Killian were sitting on both sides.
After taking a sip of the milk in the glass, Dr. Killian frowned slightly.
This is the third glass of milk he has drunk. To be honest, he is curious why Nagini likes to drink milk so much. Doesn't he get tired of it?
But considering Nagini's identity, Kilian could only accompany Nagini to drink milk.
As if he felt the tense atmosphere in the air, Dr. Kilian's eyes flashed with thoughts.
He chuckled and pretended to be relaxed. "Mr. Nagini, why are you here today?"
Nagini shook his head. His eyes were fixed on the data board in front of Dr. Maya. His expression was somewhat perfunctory. "Nothing, I just wanted to see the progress of the project I invested in."
Dr. Kilian smiled and replied, "You can rest assured about this. Recently, whether it's me or Maya, everyone is very concerned about this matter.
It's the first sample you sent over. It's already the 61st test. "
Nagini glanced at Kyrian and stopped spinning the glass of milk in his hand. A serious look flashed in his eyes. "The value of one failure is the same as 100 failures.
I don't care about the process, I just want to see the results. "
With a stiff face, Dr. Kilian's eyes flashed with embarrassment, then he laughed dryly and echoed, "Yes, the results are the most important."
He did not argue with Nagini on this issue.
Everyone knows that failure is the mother of success, but how many failures do you have to see success?
Don't say that the previous failures were preparations for approaching success. These failures have a price, and this price must be borne by Nagini personally.
The experiment is still continuing. Through the reaction of Extremis to sample No. 1, the simulation program on the side will collect this data and eventually conduct a full-scale simulation.
"Extremis X: 003 Agent, 7th injection, dose is 0.5 mg."
"Core temperature continues to rise, heartbeat 133 per minute, current state is within the safety line."
"Extremis X: 003 Agent, 16th injection, number of injections is the highest value of the previous 60 experiments."
"Core temperature stabilizes, heartbeat is 322 per minute, rejection is alleviated, current state is within the safety line."
"Extremis X: 003 Agent, 20th injection, total dose is 10 mg."
"Core temperature is rising rapidly, heartbeat is 789 per minute, state is extremely dangerous and unstable …"
"The critical period has passed, core temperature has decreased, heartbeat has decreased to 70 per minute, 20th injection test, success!"
"Mr. Najini, our experiment is a success. This is the most successful of the 61 experiments we've done so far!"
With a bit of excitement in her expression, Dr. Maya clapped her hands excitedly. She turned her head to look at Nagini with a look of joy on her face.
After the 20th injection went wrong, Nagini's heartstrings had been tense.
It wasn't until the experiment was successful that he breathed a sigh of relief, with a look of irrepressible joy on his face: "In other words, I can inject Extremis to the provider of sample No. 1?"
As soon as his voice fell, the smile on Dr. Maya's face froze. She opened her mouth, and a bit of embarrassment appeared in her eyes.
Frowning subconsciously, Nagini, who was staring at the other party's eyes, also changed a little.
Dr. Kilian on the side noticed the sudden change in Nagini's expression?
He thought for a while with a bit of helplessness in his eyes, but he still pretended to be angry: "What's the matter?
Didn't you say that the experiment was successful? "
Dr. Maya glanced at Dr. Kilian and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, understanding that the other party was going to throw the blame on her.
The main developer of Extremis is herself, but the second main force besides herself is Dr. Kilian.
But Dr. Maya can understand.
She is a woman, and in this case, the probability of her taking the blame and angering Nagini is even lower.
So she thought for a while, with a bit of thought and embarrassment on her face: "How should I put it?
Although the human simulation program is very realistic, the simulation is a simulation after all, and the real situation may … "
However, before the other party could finish speaking, Nagini waved his hand and interrupted her.
That's not what he wanted to know.
It is undeniable that what the other party said is very reasonable, but the problem is that he doesn't understand.
Many people think that Nagini is a genius, but he knows very well that he is not.
Professional things are left to the professionals, and he only needs to control the rudder.
So he waved his hand directly: "I don't need to know this, I just need to know why the simulation experiment was successful, but the real injection will have an accident."
Dr. Maya looked at Dr. Kilian, and Dr. Kilian's eyes flickered with thought, and finally nodded obscurely.
After receiving the other party's instructions, Dr. Maya sighed:
"It's like this, Extremis is a simulation of Extremis, which ultimately stimulates the potential of the human body.
In theory, the experiment was successful, but we analyzed it through observation of Sample No. 1.
The other party is a woman, and because of her age, her various qualities are in a declining stage. During the strengthening process, the other party is likely to have strong psychological and physiological reactions due to pain. "
Frowning, Nagini had a bad idea in his mind:
"So?"
And looking at the other party's ugly face, Dr. Maya euphemistically said: "The situation is not very optimistic, Extremis needs a buffer, but our current research in this area …"
The atmosphere at the scene became a little more dignified at this moment, and Dr. Maya didn't dare to continue. Kilian and she looked at each other, and the two of them looked at Nagini, worried about whether the other party was willing to continue investing.
However, before Nagini could speak, the phone in his pocket rang.
After thinking about it, Nagini finally answered the phone:
"Sam?
Why are you calling me? "
On the other end of the phone, at New York Airport, looking at Vanessa and Richard at the boarding gate, Sam couldn't help but have a little more urgency in her eyes:
"Where are you?
Didn't we say we were going to Los Angeles together?
We're about to board the plane, and Richard just asked me where you were. "
Glancing up and looking at the silent Kilian and Dr. Maya, Nagini shook his head: "I have something to do here, I guess I'll have to take the next flight."
At New York Airport, Sam opened her mouth, she seemed to want to say something, but finally shook her head: "Well, we'll wait for you in Los Angeles."
The phone hung up, and Nagini flipped the phone in his hand.
His face was a bit gloomy, and the air became heavy for a long time.
After a long time, Nagini shook his head, he broke the heavy atmosphere in the air, and asked a question: "Is there a finished product?"
Dr. Maya was taken aback, she didn't react.
On the contrary, Dr. Kilian on the side nodded immediately: "Yes, but the injection is very risky."
Nagini waved his hand: "I know, give me ten standard doses of Extremis."
Five minutes later, the exquisite suitcase was filled with ten doses of Extremis.
Nagini took the suitcase, he patted the other party on the shoulder, and then turned and left.
Just looking at Nagini's back as he left, Dr. Maya's eyes flashed with hesitation. She seemed to want to say something, but she didn't speak for a long time. But in the end, she gritted her teeth: "Mr. Nagini, about the follow-up research on Extremis?"
His figure paused, and Nagini's footsteps stopped, but after a while, he stepped forward again: "Sorry, I'm in a hurry to catch a plane. Let's talk about this next time."
Nagini left, and staring at the other party's back, a trace of loss flashed in Dr. Maya's eyes.
But it's understandable, after all, 100 million US dollars in exchange for these things, no one would be satisfied with it.
On the contrary, Dr. Kilian stared at Nagini's back as he left, and his eyes were a little gloomy.
