Chapter 591: The Mystery of Human Origins (Part 1)

When the whole world participated in the deciphering of human genes, our country's strength was not strong, and the level of science and technology was not high. Especially in terms of genetic technology, it is far behind. A good scale was formed in foreign countries as early as the 1980s, and our country only supported it in the 863 plan, and it was not until the 1990s that a certain scale was formed. In general, our country lags behind by a large amount of time.

It was under such circumstances that our country participated in the genetic cracking work and completed the task ahead of schedule.

Now, it's time to verify our level at that time again, and everyone has to be nervous.

"There are more than 10,000 base pairs, and there have been no errors." Huang Lao looked at the data and said with a smile: "Our error rate is indeed not more than one in ten thousand."

There is no error in more than 10,000, which does not mean that there are no errors later. Maybe there will be several mistakes later, but this is a good start and it is worth being happy.

"It's more than 20,000, and there are still no mistakes." Mr. Wu said with a smile.

Everyone was even more happy, 20,000 did not go wrong, which is indeed very good news.

"It will be 30,000 soon, and there will be an error rate." Huang Lao was full of expectations, thinking that there would be no mistakes when reaching 30,000, but he did not expect that he immediately discovered a mistake.

"There is only one error in 30,000, which is much lower than the announced error rate. It is worth being happy." Ye Chen comforted.

"As a scientist, no one likes mistakes." Mr. Huang was full of regret.

Ye Chenxin said that this requirement is too high, right? The requirement back then was that the error rate was within one ten-thousandth, which is one in thirty-thousandth. Are you still not satisfied?

With the level of science and technology in our country back then, this is something to be very happy about.

Over time, more and more base pairs were corrected and more and more errors were found.

"One million base pairs have been corrected, and 31 errors have occurred, which means that our error rate is controlled within one in 30,000, which is much better than the published data." Everyone finally had a general concept.

There are only 31 errors in one million tests. This is a proper error rate of 1 in 30,000, which is much better than the standard of 1 in 10,000.

I believe that the difference in the error rate behind will not be too large.

Sure enough, until the end of the test, the error rate did not exceed one in 30,000.

"Based on our country's technical conditions at that time, it is very good to have such a result." Ye Chen is well aware of the situation in our country at that time, and it is already rare to have such a result.

"Yes." Although Huang Lao was still a little regretful, he was still satisfied.

"This is indeed good news, but the even better news is that our current equipment is very advanced and the efficiency is much higher. It will not take us much time to complete all the sequencing." Mr. Wu was very happy, saying: "Special It is the powerful performance of the super optical brain, and it is the greatest help."

Deciphering human genes requires a lot of calculations, which requires supercomputers. Back then, a company purchased the third fastest supercomputer in the world in order to crack genes.

The calculation speed of the super optical brain exceeded 30 trillion times, tens of thousands of times that of the third fastest supercomputer in the world that year, and its computing power was extremely powerful. With such powerful assistance, it will not be too difficult to complete the calibration work, the efficiency will be high, and the time will be greatly shortened.

"Yes. Let's continue with the correction." Huang Lao said expectantly.

"Come on, correct the data in the United States." Mr. Wu proposed.

The United States was an extremely important participant and organizer of the deciphering of human genes back then. It can also be said that it was under the impetus of the United States that there was a global joint action to decipher human genes.

Therefore, it is necessary to correct the data of the United States, and it is still the top priority.

"A mistake. It's only more than 8,000 base pairs." Huang Lao shook his head, his face full of regret.

"The United States likes to brag." Ye Chen despises the United States.

"The technology of the United States was indeed more advanced than ours back then, but Americans prefer to be exaggerated, and they may not be conscientious in doing things.

"Mr. Wu doesn't feel very good about the United States.

Although the United States has always regarded itself as democracy, freedom, human rights, and equality, and promoted American values ​​around the world, in fact, the United States has blown the cowhide a lot.

Soon, 100,000 base pairs were corrected and nine errors were made.

"Based on this calculation, the error rate in the United States is only around one ten-thousandth. No wonder, the standard was set at one ten-thousandth." Zhuang Lao commented.

The United States played a very important role in deciphering human genes back then, so the standard should naturally be set based on the strength of the United States, so as to demonstrate the strength of the United States.

Although the correction efficiency is very high, the correction work of 3 billion base pairs is also extremely huge, and it is impossible to obtain results in a short period of time.

Ye Chen stayed here. The fathers of hybrid rice have their own work to do, so they can only come here when they are free.

Soon, a month passed, and the correction work was finally completed.

"The calibration results are out. Our country has the lowest error rate, which is less than one in 30,000. Next is the United States, which is less than one in 10,000. Then there is the little devil, which is at 1 in 8,000. Then , it’s a Western European country, and it’s a little worse than the little devil.” Huang Lao announced the result.

Clap clap!

There was warm applause, and everyone was very happy.

At that time, with our country's technological level, it was very rare to be able to top the list, and we are happy.

The mistakes of the United States are not bad, and they are not more than one in ten thousand. The little devil's error rate is much higher, it is only one in eight thousand. Western Europe is even worse, one in seven thousand.

"Didn't the little devil claim to be the world's second largest economy back then, and he was a technological powerhouse in the world, why is he so bad?" Ye Chen never liked the little devil, and said disdainfully.

"The little devil has a lot of water in the world's second largest economy, okay?" Mr. Zhuang shook his head and said, "When the United States sheared their sheep, they forced the little devil to appreciate the exchange rate by half. Calculated according to the exchange rate, The little devil’s gdp doubled at once, and he became the world’s second largest economy. This is very glamorous, and it sounds nice to say it, even if the little devil’s economy has not recovered from the recession.”

The "sheep" that the United States forcibly cut the little devil back then forced the little devil's currency to appreciate sharply.

"As for the little devil's technology, it's good or bad. In fact, it's just a few aspects. If we want to build a complete industrial system and a comprehensive technological system like our country, the little devil can't play it." Mr. Zhuang Then despise the little devil.

Zhuang Lao didn't mean to exaggerate at all.

In today's world, the country with the most complete industrial system is our country. Our country has all the industrial sectors in the latest classification of the United Nations. On a global scale, there is only the Celestial Dynasty, and there is no semicolon. Even the United States has not reached this level of perfection, and some industrial sectors are missing.

Even the big brother in the Western world, the United States, is like this, not to mention other countries.

The little devil's technology back then seemed to be very good, so he could only play in a few areas, such as automobiles and home appliances. Now, as soon as the Celestial Dynasty exerted its strength, the little devil showed his original shape. Originally, the little devil was number one in high-tech exports in Asia, but now he doesn't even have half of China's. Moreover, the gap is getting bigger and bigger.

This incident fully demonstrated that the little devil was born with deficiencies, and it was normal for this to happen.

"As for Western European countries, that's not to mention their inherent inadequacies. The country is small, with a small population, lack of resources, and insufficient potential, which limit its development." Mr. Zhuang continued.

Western European countries have always regarded themselves as developed countries. In fact, it is really hard to say whether some Western European countries have such strength. However, there is a big boss, the United States, which wants to bring in these Western European countries to form a club of developed countries, so it did.

"Fortunately, we have corrected it. If we apply it directly, it will be troublesome, and we will definitely get wrong results." Huang Lao stroked his forehead and said happily.

"That's right." Everyone nodded, agreeing with this statement.

Think about it, the data error rate of the little devils and Western European countries is so high, it will definitely lead to wrong conclusions.

"Now that I have completed the calibration, do you want to publish these data?" Elder Wu asked.

"It can be announced." Old Xu and the others thought for a while, and said, "It's just that we need to take advantage of the opportunity to slap these countries hard and make them lose face."

"That's right. The United States, in particular, has always prided itself on cracking genes. A slap in the face will make the United States feel bad, right?" Everyone agreed.

The United States likes to show off and whitewash itself. If it can make the United States lose face, everyone will be very interested.

Ye Chen disagreed, saying: "I will suggest to the country that this data should not be published."

"No announcement? Why? Xiaoye, this is a good time to lose face to the United States." Everyone disagreed.

"It's just a loss of face, and there is not much loss." Ye Chen laughed like a rogue, and said: "Think about it, besides how many mistakes we know about these data, do foreign countries know? No! Foreign countries use wrong data Come to calculate and study, it will waste a lot of money abroad. Isn’t it better to let them go further and further down the wrong path? Isn’t it much better than losing face?”

Everyone's mouths were wide open, and they frowned in thought.

"Not bad!" After a while, everyone agreed loudly.

Ye Chen's method is very harmful, and it is so damaging that there is nothing to say abroad.

Just losing face is nothing more than an ugly look on the face of the United States. However, there is no actual loss. Think about it, how much manpower, material and financial resources will be wasted if foreign countries go further and further down the wrong path? After wasting a lot, I found out that there was a mistake. At that time, what expression will I have?

Gene technology is already one of the most popular technologies in the world. Foreign countries have invested huge sums of money in the development of gene technology. The more investment, the greater the loss.

"Ye Dong, as expected of a black-hearted profiteer, this idea is not an ordinary loss!" Xiao Lingyue raised her beautiful brows, despising Ye Chen.

She knows best how black-hearted Ye Chen is. Not to mention anything else, just talk about Super Optical Brain, he is so dark that there is no edge.

"How did you talk?" Ye Chen glared at Xiao Lingyue and said, "We can still mislead foreign countries."

"It really is a black-hearted profiteer!" Everyone sighed in unison. Browse and read the address:
