Reborn in 1950: Shorting the Federal Reserve at the Start

Three hundred meters underground at the Shenzhou Bureau, there is the newly established "Shennong" biological laboratory.

Rows of futuristic cylindrical culture chambers emitted a cold, eerie blue light.

Bubbles tumbled in the nutrient solution, making a soft "gurgling" sound.

Shen Jinghong, dressed in a spotless white protective suit, stood in front of the enormous holographic gene map.

"Director, we've reached the end of the tree of physics and information technology."

Chen Weiguo looked at the complex double helix structure and scratched his gray hair.

"Now even Mars is covered in our potatoes. Isn't your sudden switch to biology a bit of a leap?"

Is it big?

Shen Jinghong stood with his hands in his pockets, his deep gaze fixed on the string of jumping genetic code on the screen.

"In the past, we built missiles and aircraft carriers to kill people and for self-defense."

"Now no one on Earth dares to mess with us, and we've got our tickets to the stars and the sea."

A haughty sneer curled at the corner of his lips, his tone exuding an air of defying the heavens:

"From now on, I'm not going to fight with anyone anymore."

"I'm going to steal business from the King of Hell!"

Chen Weiguo gasped, a chill running down his spine.

Trying to steal business from the King of Hell?

"Director, you mean...immortality?"

"Immortality is too far-fetched, but breaking the genetic lock on human lifespan and extending lifespan by several hundred years is not impossible."

Shen Jinghong walked to the control panel and pulled out the last remaining key to the system.

That was the ultimate biotechnology he had redeemed after exhausting almost all his points—telomerase reconstruction and gene editing engineering.

"Birth, aging, sickness, and death are the natural laws."

"But the thing I, Shen Jinghong, love to do most in my life is to trample on so-called rules and regulations!"

He slammed his hand on the table, his eyes burning with fervor:

"I want our Chinese people to not only have enough to eat and wear, but also to live longer than a turtle!"

"You always talk so irresponsibly."

Lin Qinghan walked over carrying two cups of hot milk.

She was wearing a loose white lab coat today, and her black-rimmed glasses were still perched on her nose.

Shen Jinghong took the milk, but her gaze inadvertently fell on the one-way glass next to her.

The reflections of two people were seen in the glass.

The once spirited young director who once commanded respect at the United Nations General Assembly now has temples streaked with gray.

And the cryptography genius beside him, who was as aloof as frost and breathtakingly beautiful, also had deep wrinkles around her eyes.

Time waits for no one.

Suddenly, Shen Jinghong felt as if an invisible hand had gripped her heart, causing an indescribable pang of sorrow.

He won over the world and won over the era.

But it cannot stop the erosion of time.

"Sparse and cold".

Shen Jinghong put down his cup, reached out and gently stroked her somewhat rough cheeks, his voice low and hoarse:

"We're getting old."

"Yes, I'm getting old."

Lin Qinghan leaned against him, her eyes gentle, "But being able to accompany you to this day and witness the country's prosperity, I feel my life has not been in vain."

"not enough."

Shen Jinghong suddenly tightened his arms, pulling her tightly into his embrace, his tone revealing a kind of obsessive madness:

"This golden age has only just begun; how could I bear to let you grow old?"

"I'm determined to break this genetic lock! I want you to stay with me and see the stars and the sea for another five hundred years!"

It was at this tender moment.

"Beep beep beep beep—!!!"

The supercomputer on the control panel suddenly emitted a sharp warning sound!

On the screen, the originally broken gene chains miraculously began to reconnect and lengthen under the intervention of the simulated drug!

"Amazing! Look!"

Lin Qinghan pushed him away abruptly, rushed to the screen, and trembled with excitement.

"Telomerase activity has been successfully activated! The theoretical model for reversing cellular senescence... has been closed!"

"We did it! The limit of human lifespan has been broken!"

Shen Jinghong rushed over in ecstasy, staring intently at the perfect set of data, his eyes gleaming with an unprecedented light.

Become!

I really tore up the Book of Life and Death from the King of Hell's register!

"Qinghan! We did it!"

Shen Jinghong turned around excitedly, wanting to hug his wife.

however.

The ecstasy on Lin Qinghan's face froze instantly.

She frowned in pain, clutching her chest tightly with one hand, her face turning deathly pale in an instant.

"A stunning sight... I..."

"puff--!"

A huge mouthful of shocking blood suddenly gushed out of her mouth!

Crimson blood splattered in tiny specks on the pristine white lab table, a shocking sight.

"So cold!!!"

Shen Jinghong's eyes were bloodshot, and she pounced on him like a madwoman.

Lin Qinghan's body slumped into his arms like a weightless leaf.

"Jinghong...it hurts so much..."

She murmured weakly, her eyes closed limply, and she lost consciousness completely.

"Doctor! Call a doctor!!!"

Holding his wife, whose body was growing colder in his arms, Shen Jinghong let out the most piercing and desperate roar of his life:

"Chen Weiguo! Call all the doctors in the base! Now!!!"
