Silicon Valley

Chapter 452 Human Gene Sequencing Completed

Over the next month or so, Henry began restructuring Isearch.

On April 1, Henry held a press conference to announce to the outside world that Isearch was restructured and eventually merged into the parent company Google and became a subsidiary. Google will become a high-tech company with diversified development, rather than a pure Internet search company.

As soon as this news came out, it caused a sensation in the United States and even the world. What exactly is Google going to do?

Soon, news came out from within Google that Henry Williams established the GoogleX Lab. The projects researched by the GoogleX Lab will be the future and hope of the Google Group. As for the specific project, no one knows!

So people called GoogleX lab "Google Mystery Lab"!

However, it is unexpected that the leaders of the GoogleX laboratory are actually two young people, one is Larry Page and the other is Sergey Brin, both of whom are not yet 26 years old!

Soon, the media and shareholders raised doubts and objections. How could such an important laboratory be handed over to two young boys? !

The Wall Street Journal said: "Henry Williams made a very rash decision!"

Shares of Isearch plummeted that day.

The British "Times" said: "Since Henry Williams chose Larry Page and Silgue Brin, this shows that the two may have something unique!"

Soon, the identities of the two were all exposed. It turns out that both of them are doctoral geniuses at Stanford University, and they are the people of the Stanford University.

Just when the outside world was buzzing, Henry issued a statement in support of Larry and Sergey: "Innovation is the soul of an enterprise, and the reason why I appointed them both as the heads of GoogleX Labs is because of their innovative spirit!"

Everyone sees Henry saying that, plus Larry and Sergey are really good. So, people have nothing to say.

A week later, Henry announced again: "The CEO of Google Group has been selected. His name is Eric Schmidt. Previously, he served as Chairman and CEO of Novell, responsible for the company's strategic planning, management and Technology development, but also a member of Apple's board of directors!"

In the past life, it was the "troika" that created the Google myth: Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Eric Schmidt. Without the founder, there would be no Google's search technology and unique innovative spirit, and without Eric Schmidt, there would be no Google's staggering ability to make money and the strength to reshape the Internet landscape. Silicon Valley people's evaluation of Eric Schmidt is: "Schmidt is definitely a pivotal person, with rich experience, he can be called an old fox in the industry."

Therefore, for the smooth development of Google in the future. "Troika", Henry recruited them all! ! !

A few weeks later, after a period of running-in, Eric Schmidt quickly adapted to the new environment, and after understanding the company's situation, he began to formulate new development strategies. And Larry Page and Sergey Brin also worked very smoothly.

Google everything started to go right.

Henry seems to be able to vaguely see the rise of future tech giants!

Gradually, after more than two months, a major event that shocked the world happened!

On June 25, 1999, Gene Umbrella held a global press conference announcing, "Gene Umbrella independently completed the entire sequencing of the human genome on June 24, 1999!!!"

The news shocked the industry beyond belief!

The Human Genome Project is one of the largest international collaborative projects in the world. Just a week ago, the Human Genome Project joint research team composed of 216 scientists from Britain, the United States, Japan and China officially announced that there are 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human body, and they have completely deciphered the genetic code of the 22nd pair of chromosomes in the human body. The exact location of the 33.4 million base pairs contained in all protein-coding genes on the pair of chromosomes has been determined! The 22nd chromosome pair is the second smallest, and studies have linked it to the immune system, congenital heart disease, schizophrenia, unresponsiveness and leukemia, as well as a variety of cancers.

This news once caused a shock in the industry. It is the first time that humans have completed the determination of the complete sequence of human chromosome genes, and scientists generally believe that this is another breakthrough for human beings in the field of science. The words are still in my ears, but the butt is not hot yet. A week later, Umbrella Gene jumped out and said they had sequenced the entire human genome. In other words, all 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human body have been cracked!

This Nima is so dangling, the Gene Umbrella Company can directly smash the world!

Many people did not believe it, and raised doubts.

Many scientists have also appeared on TV stations to criticize the Gene Umbrella company for lying, claiming that Gene Umbrella has the ability to publish the sequencing data, so that people can argue the truth.

In this regard, the Gene Umbrella Company is dismissive, love it or not!

What is the strength of the genetic umbrella, and how much human and material resources did it use? Only 216 scientists on the other side have completed the sequencing of a pair of chromosomes, not to mention the powerful and unparalleled gene umbrella company?

In addition, the genetic sequencing data will never be released. Because, the data recorded by this gene sequencing is Henry's gene!

Henry did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to develop the Gene Umbrella Company in order to solve his own genetic mutation problem as soon as possible. Therefore, there is no doubt that the first human gene sequenced must be Henry's gene.

Currently, gene sequencing is extremely expensive and time-consuming. It took more than two years to complete Henry's gene sequencing work, and it cost a total of 10 billion US dollars! In a decade or two, this can be done for a hundred dollars, and not even a day!

Therefore, Gene Umbrella has been working on accelerating gene sequencing technology, and has summarized and invented many technologies over the years. Sequencing tools and techniques have improved, not only reducing costs, but also greatly increasing the speed of gene sequencing.

The hospital Henry acquired had been collecting human blood and building a DNA database. In the future, once breakthroughs in gene sequencing technology are made, these DNAs can be sequenced. At that time, by comparing the patient's physical symptoms with gene sequencing data, and then using big data technology analysis, the code of human genes can be cracked to the greatest extent. This also means that the exploration of the mysteries of the human body will take the most important step!

Henry was browsing his own genetic data, and at the same time, he also took the genetic data of some normal people for comparison. The computer can display the difference between the two on the screen. Henry himself is also a biotechnologist. He looked at the screen and frowned, and the more data he looked at, the deeper the frown...
