"Brilliant, your minds are so agile, young people. Your proposal sounds perfectly fine, but if we were to establish infertility hospitals on a large scale...
The funds you and I can mobilize are too limited.
It's difficult to achieve scale directly.
So, once the researchers have replicated the experimental results, I will report your contributions. Then, we will immediately convene an emergency meeting, and you will attend with me.
We will discuss the matter slowly during the meeting.
If it can be successfully approved,
We will mobilize the entire organization's strength to undertake this endeavor.
That will yield the best results and be the fastest!"
Upon hearing Ding Yun's proposal, Ji Hua felt her suggestion was indeed excellent. Given their organization's current capabilities, it was very difficult to cause trouble openly.
It was impossible to directly alter the gene pool.
They could only try to find alternative approaches.
However, the organization was not run by her alone; even if she found the suggestion good, established procedures had to be followed.
Ding Yun had no objections to this.
The two quickly reached an agreement on this matter and even engaged in an in-depth discussion regarding the establishment of infertility hospitals for new humans, finalizing many details.
After a long while, Ji Hua departed.
Two days later, the researchers who had received Ding Yun's submitted materials and data had largely completed their replication experiments and confirmed that Ding Yun's data was without issues. Only then did Ji Hua truly feel at ease to inform all organization members of the situation.
She personally took the lead in calling an emergency meeting.
Such a significant achievement warranted a celebration, a meeting to commend the contributors, and then to discuss future steps.
The meeting began with the promotion of Ding Yun, granting her full access within the organization. Following this, there was an active discussion of Ding Yun's previous proposal. As expected, the suggestion to achieve their objectives through the legal establishment of infertility hospitals for new humans was unanimously approved.
They even brainstormed and collaboratively refined the overall plan for this proposal.
After discussing for half a day, the general direction was set. They even allocated half of the organization's savings for related investments.
They would provide funding, effort, and publicity.
Ding Yun would offer technical support.
The final profits would be split evenly.
Then, both sides began to busy themselves. The organization members focused on applying for licenses, constructing the relevant hospitals, and preparing for publicity, while Ding Yun busied herself with preparing the nutrient solution made with the core ingredient of Daughter Spring Water. This nutrient solution, along with a special type of pollution, was essential for new humans to nurture their offspring.
Without the nutrient solution, the embryos could not form. Without the special pollution, they would only produce natural humans and the newborns would not possess genes adapted to the environment.
In short, neither was dispensable.
Furthermore, the latter had to be kept absolutely confidential.
This was because, currently, pollution was perceived by many new humans in the same way they would perceive poison, arsenic, or cancer in the past – as something terrifying.
As something that could be fatal.
Even if Ding Yun explained the principles clearly, most people would likely hesitate or back out upon hearing that embryos would be nurtured in incubators with special pollution.
Therefore, this aspect had to be temporarily concealed.
Through their joint efforts, the first batch of infertility hospitals for new humans was soon established.
And they officially opened for business.
Concurrently, many new humans who wished to have descendants were attracted by their hospitals' low prices and the "no success, no charge" marketing.
They gradually entered their hospitals.
Do not assume that because new humans have almost no fertility and have had this condition for centuries, they do not want children or have no desire or intention to procreate. In reality, there are many new humans who wish to have children of their own.
It's just that they have virtually no chance of success on their own.
The success rate of relying on hospitals and their related gene technology is also very low, and if it fails, they still have to pay. Failing ten or twenty times would strain the finances of even the wealthiest families.
The cost is not something ordinary new humans can afford.
So, it's not that they don't want children.
It's that they can't afford them.
As the saying goes, the more unattainable something is, the more one yearns for it. Having a child of one's own is an unattainable luxury for many new humans. The high prices and low success rates of the past led them to withdraw helplessly.
Now, with a hospital that offers very low prices and guarantees no charge if unsuccessful, who wouldn't be tempted to try? After all, having a child these days doesn't require experiencing the pain of pregnancy for ten months. They only need to provide a sample of their genetic material; everything else is handled by the hospital.
The process is similar to pre-ordering an item.
Ten months is not an unbearable wait.
Therefore, the business of the infertility hospital established by Ding Yun and her organization has been thriving since its opening. Especially as some new human parents have successfully seen the embryos conceived from their genetic material and videos of the embryos' development.
Their hospitals even became trending topics online.
In an instant, countless people were discussing it, countless others were making appointments, and even more were observing.
Those observing were mainly concerned that the children had not yet been officially born and that a mere embryo did not represent anything conclusive. For them, only when the embryo emerged from the incubator and survived would it be considered a true success; otherwise, there was always a risk of accidents.
Honestly, when the buzz began to build, Ding Yun and some of the organization's leaders were somewhat worried that such a large commotion might attract the attention of the world's mainframe. They even spent money trying to have the trending topics removed.
It was only after a considerable period, with no reaction from the world's mainframe and everything operating normally, that Ding Yun and the others felt somewhat reassured and continued to expand the hospitals.
Another nine months passed, and the first batch of children were born successfully. After undergoing relevant examinations, their bodies were confirmed to be free of any problems, with no gene collapse.
Nor were there any other deformities or similar issues.
The relevant hype was then officially ignited.
How to describe it? The previous "trending topics" were merely an appetizer compared to this massive birth of children, all healthy. It was like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.
Across major platforms, major forums.
Even trending topics within holographic games.
Almost all of them were flooded with this news. The so-called top ten or top twenty trending topics were all related information. Even the new human parents who posted photos of their children online saw their follower counts skyrocket by hundreds of thousands, instantly becoming internet celebrities.
In addition, of course, were the hospital appointments.
In less than half an hour, appointments were booked for ten years later.
For many years, neither the online world nor the real world had been this chaotic, this lively.
