62: Chapter 62 Effects of Gene Optimization Fluid

(This chapter is dedicated to my childhood friend 'Night Raid on Widow Village', wishing him a speedy recovery!)

On August 2nd, in the Xiangcheng People's Hospital, a man in his 50s rushed into the ward excitedly holding his mobile phone!

"I got an appointment!"

"I got an appointment!"

"I got an appointment for Super God Group's gene optimization fluid!"

The ward, which was originally filled with gloom, suddenly became excited upon hearing this news.

"When can he get the injection?!" A woman in her 50s asked, her face a mix of excitement and nervousness.

"Right now, the nurse is coming over immediately!"

"That's great, our son can finally recover!" The woman looked at the hospital bed with concerned eyes.

On the bed, a young man in his late twenties was curled up, his pale face devoid of color, his tightly clenched teeth letting out occasional groans of pain.

The nurse arrived quickly. Under the expectant eyes of the man and woman, she first hooked the young man up to a nutrient solution and then swiftly completed the injection of the gene optimization fluid.

"After the injection, he will fall into a deep sleep for a day and a night. Don't worry; when he wakes up, he'll definitely be returned to you as a whole, lively son," the nurse said with a smile before turning to leave, as there were many more people waiting behind her.

From August 2nd, hospitals across the country were packed. Countless people who had successfully booked a purchase flooded in. Fortunately, the daily quota was only 10 million, which was manageable when distributed among the large and medium-sized hospitals nationwide.

In the days that followed, a large number of Xia Country citizens were injected with the gene optimization fluid.

In the evening, in a park.

Old Wang came to the small plaza again. He used to dance square dances here, but a month ago, he suffered a sudden cerebral infarction and almost met the King of Hell. Although he was eventually saved, he ended up hemiplegic.

A month later, he returned to the familiar small plaza, but the difference was that he had become younger!

"Old Wang! You also got the gene optimization fluid injection?" Widow Zhang was Old Wang's former dance partner. Seeing Old Wang return to their old playground, her face beamed with joy.

Old Wang was stunned when he was suddenly stopped by a beautiful young woman in her 30s.

He racked his brains and searched every corner of his memory, but he couldn't recall when he had ever known such a beauty!

"Old Wang! You don't recognize me?"

Old Wang looked carefully again and again, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration hit him!

"Widow Zhang!"

Widow Zhang beamed, "You old rascal, you finally recognized me. Look at me, am I beautiful now?"

"You must be!"

"I really didn't expect it. You weren't bragging, Widow Zhang; you really were a flower in your youth!" Old Wang's gaze shifted slightly.

"You weren't bragging either; you really were a handsome guy in your youth!" Widow Zhang's eyes flickered. She hadn't expected Old Wang to become so handsome after the injection.

He was 180cm tall, looked like he was in his 30s, with thick eyebrows, large eyes, and a high bridge to his nose.

"Didn't you say before that your wife passed away a year ago from cancer?" Widow Zhang asked tentatively.

Old Wang didn't answer directly but asked back, "I heard your partner passed away 30 years ago?"

"In all these years, you never thought about remarrying?"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

In the evening, the huge orange-red sun was about to set, shining on the shimmering lake in the distance. One couldn't help but sigh that the sunset is indeed the most beautiful time of day!

The impact of the gene optimization fluid grew larger and larger. On August 8th, the Xia Country authorities published a draft for public comment titled "Opinions on Retired Personnel Re-employment to Benefit Society."

The "Opinions on Retired Re-employment" mentioned that, influenced by the gene optimization fluid, the average life expectancy of Xia Country people would reach an unprecedented 200 years in the coming months.

With such a long lifespan, if one retired at 60, would they just spend the remaining 140 years collecting a state pension and waiting to die?

This was clearly not conducive to social progress.

Therefore, the "Opinions on Retired Re-employment" suggested that retired personnel seek their self-worth again and explore a more exciting life in the "new birth" granted by the gene optimization fluid.

Additionally, the document mentioned encouraging major universities to add more majors and expand student enrollment on a large scale.

It encouraged provinces, autonomous regions, prefectures, and counties to open adult secondary schools. The knowledge taught in adult secondary schools would be the same as in regular secondary schools, and students could participate in the Gaokao, go to university, and obtain a degree just like regular students.

It also encouraged retired professionals with university degrees or higher to continue contributing their remaining energy and keep striving in their respective positions.

In summary, the state hoped these rejuvenated retirees would return to work and create value for society.

Besides the official notice from Xia Country, Super God Group also issued a recruitment notice for Super God University.

As soon as this news broke, countless students were eager and ready to apply as soon as registration opened!

A few days ago, the approval for the establishment of Super God University had been issued, classifying it as a first-tier institution.

Su Fan chose the school's location next to North Lake in Ningcheng City, building it along the lakeside.

He also exchanged and extracted some black technology from the super god black technology system to create many engineering machines that could accelerate construction.

With these new engineering machines, the construction period for Super God University was greatly shortened. It was expected to be completed by the end of this year, excluding landscaping.

This year's Gaokao students wouldn't make it in time, as the recruitment of teachers and other software facilities couldn't be in place so quickly. However, that didn't mean there would be no enrollment this year.

While it was too late for undergraduates, a batch of graduate students could be recruited first.

It just so happened that the registration and recruitment for graduate students would begin in a while.

...

Time quickly moved to August 10th.

kunpeng no. 1 returned triumphantly from the moon after a month-long journey.

A full ten thousand tons of lunar soil rich in Helium-3 was transported back to the country, shocking the entire world once again!

The Helium-3 nuclear fusion reactor had also been successfully manufactured after a busy month. It only lacked Helium-3 fuel to undergo ignition testing.

Now that kunpeng no. 1 had brought back a large amount of Helium-3 from the moon, it wouldn't be long before Helium-3 controllable nuclear fusion could be successfully ignited.

There was another piece of good news: another kunpeng no. 1 spacecraft had been successfully manufactured.

To distinguish between the two ships, Su Fan named the first kunpeng no. 1 ship 'Kunpeng No. 1 FZ-1' and the second 'Kunpeng No. 1 FZ-2'.

FZ-2 still belonged to Super God Group and had not been handed over to the Xia Country authorities.

Regarding this matter, Su Fan specifically communicated with the Council of Elders and determined that in a month, the next newly produced kunpeng no. 1 would be sold to the Xia Country authorities.

From July 10th to August 10th, a whole month had passed, and Su Fan had spent it in a hurried but fulfilling atmosphere.

On August 15th, Sun Shangxiang ran over excitedly to tell Su Fan that the Quantum Communication Satellite had been successfully developed and had entered mass production.

The Quantum Communication Satellite was based on the data Su Fan had given Sun Shangxiang in mid-July, and nearly a month had passed since then.

In addition to the Quantum Communication Satellite, the Miniature Quantum Communicator Su Fan had given her earlier had also been successfully developed and mass-produced some time ago. It had just been quietly stockpiled. Now that the inventory of Miniature Quantum Communicators was sufficient, it was time to hold a press conference.

The press conference was set for the morning of August 18th.

At this conference, in addition to releasing the Miniature Quantum Communicator, Su Fan also planned to live-stream the satellite launch!
