【Chapter 137: A Gift】
[Chapter 137: A gift]
"Here, I can make a bold prediction that in the future, 89% of people will have the opportunity to blow out the candle flames of their 150th birthday." Ren Hong looked at everyone with a smile and said.
With a whistle.
The audience was in an uproar and everyone was not calm. If it was just shocked before, then at this moment, everyone didn’t know how to describe their mood at this moment, but one thing was very clear in their thinking, that is...will people living in the present live to be 150 years old?
"Is this true?" Someone on the field couldn't help but yell. Everyone looked at Ren Hong on the stage unanimously. This news was too explosive, comparable to a nuclear bomb. Everyone felt that they were dreaming and hoped to get another affirmative answer from the other party.
Must be honest.
Almost everyone has the same idea.
Ren Hong saw someone interrupting his speech midway, but he was not upset. Instead, he followed the source of the sound and replied with a firm answer: "Yes, and the cost of paying is very low, and it only occupies an extremely insignificant part of an ordinary person's life wealth."
Ren Hong's words made the ordinary viewers watching the video breath even more quickly. Before that, they were shocked but subconsciously believed that only the rich could enjoy their 150-year-old life, and ordinary people could not afford it. But at this moment, Ren Hong's words undoubtedly gave them the hope that had been destroyed again.
Ren Hong's image metaphor says: "The cost of copying a 'kidney' from this device is to analyze the DNA sample, the biomass content, the power consumption of the equipment, and the cost of the equipment itself. That is to say, the overall cost of manufacturing a kidney is between 800 and 1,000 US dollars."
There is no doubt that everyone, whether it is the person who is on the scene or the person who is watching the live broadcast, has turned from marveling and shock to excitement at this moment. Before today, or a few hours ago, they would never have imagined that such a thing would happen in a few hours.
In a blink of an eye, I learned that my lifespan could be doubled and even ordinary people could enjoy it. What is this experience? No one said it specifically, and I don’t know what to say.
The next moment, the audience burst into thunderous applause, and even the audience who were watching the live broadcast stared at the screen and applauded vigorously, and even shouted excitedly in front of the computer. At the scene, the violent applause directly interrupted Ren Hong's words, making it impossible for him to continue speaking normally, and he had no choice but to stop first.
At this moment, everyone in the audience stood up from the chair, they were all trying hard to applaud, and from the bottom of their hearts. When the audience looked at the young people on the stage, they were all respect from the heart and gratitude from the bottom of their hearts.
Because this young man will double the lifespan of the entire human race.
"This is God's gift!" said a foreign scholar who was trying to applaud excitedly, and his emotions were hard to hide.
"I am glad that we live in this era. This is the welfare of all mankind!!!" said another person, a reporter.
But the thunderous applause at the scene directly covered the sound of their speech.
On the stage, Ren Hong nodded gently with a smile and looked at everyone in the audience who was looking at him with a greeting look. For a long time, the applause still had not retreated, but Ren Hong's voice sounded again, and the applause finally came to an end.
Ren Hong said: "I think every large medical institution and every urban area should have at least one such device, obviously. This great invention will benefit the entire human race."
There is no doubt that everyone present can tell from this sentence that Ren Hong is currently promoting and promoting his products. To be precise, the whole process from the beginning to the present is in a sense for commercial promotion. However, no one felt uncomfortable with this, nor was there any dissatisfaction with it.
The birth of this emerging biotechnology is enough to affect the entire human civilization. Almost anyone with a little common sense will not question this. And it is very likely to change the current medical system of the entire world and even subvert it again. The most intuitive thing is that in the past patients could only "repair" their damaged body functions. After the practice is repaired, they will basically wait for death. However, after the birth of this technology, it has become a reality for frequent replacement of "parts". Rapid birth and low costs make everyone able to consume and save more people's lives, which has an immeasurable huge impact on the entire human society.
Moreover, the birth of this technology will completely sue others for the illegal occupation of organ trafficking. When this technological achievement is popularized in the world, organs that were originally more expensive than real gold will have no profit, and this gray industry will be self-defeating, thus indirectly cracking down on the bad behavior of some organizations engaging in illegal population plunder.
After this series of preparation and explanation, Ren Hong finally talked about the key points that everyone cares about.
"About the commercialization of this technology and this equipment," Ren Hong said: "The company decided to launch the finished product in three months, and can also make an appointment after today. The normal service life of each equipment is about 5 years, and the working time can reach 22 hours per day."
What is the price? Many people think about this question when they hear Ren Hong talk about this, but everyone's thoughts are basically the same. This magical device with the "power of the Creator" will definitely not be cheap.
“…The price of dumping is $120 million. And the five-year maintenance cost is between $30 million.”
$120 million!!!
A device costs $120 million? This is not usually expensive. However, the scene became calmer after a burst of unexpected surprise. Think about it carefully, compared to its capabilities, no one thinks that $120 million is very expensive, plus the maintenance costs totaling $130 million. But how many people in need can a device help in a year? Moreover, such a device can be profitable externally, and 5 years is enough to recover the cost and make a profit, because the cost of helping a person is not high, but the external price can be increased within a reasonable range.
Ren Hong was telling the actual sky-high price, but the people present were not surprised, but were calm and even surprised, because this technology was like "the power of the Creator", which could hardly be measured by price.
Finally, it’s time for the reporter to ask questions.
I saw a female reporter from a domestic newspaper sitting in the front row of the wing, and stood up and said, "Mr. Ren, I hope you can answer two questions."
"Please say!" Ren Hong waved his hand and nodded slightly to him.
“Can you reveal how high your IQ is?”
"Expand!"
"I suspect you are an alien!"
"I don't know if you have doubted Tesla and Einstein as well."
Ren Hong nodded to the reporter with a chuckle and answered her two questions very quickly and easily. The answers to the two questions showed unparalleled confidence, and even arrogant enough to be on par with Einstein and Tesla. I am afraid no one except him dares to do this.
