Xie Yuan's identity in this world is River, and Null is his code name and pseudonym.
He lives in a small town called Morro Bay. The town itself is very poor. After the closure of the Three Fingers Generating Station that was used for job opportunities, the town suddenly went downhill.
He also has family in this world, but unlike his younger brother and younger sister who have completely different life paths in the main space world, here he has an older brother named Johnny.
Because his father abandoned the family relationship, he is both the eldest brother and the father in this family.
Selflessness and kindness are synonymous with him, but bravery, persistence and aggressiveness are his nature. He is also a well-known guy near the small town of Morro Bay.
Xie Yuan and him are twins, but their personalities are very different. They behave cautiously and modestly. However, the relationship between the two brothers is still very good, and he can be regarded as Morobe's benefactor... because he is known as his mother in the small town. A workshop was opened in the name, allowing some people to obtain local jobs.
Although it was this workshop that caused Xie Yuan to be targeted by the Intelligence Bureau, the reason was that Xie Yuan was engaged in a workshop for intelligent prosthetics (bionic arms).
The connection of this kind of bionic arm is much less painful than the current nerve connection, because this bionic principle is a bionic arm that moves by sensing potential changes at the muscle level.
This technique relies on the conduction of weak electrical currents sent through the brain to control muscle activity, which can be sensed through the surface of the skin.
In terms of power, this is not as good as the directly connected robotic arm (Cyber Arm), but in terms of convenience and side effects, it is no worse than the former. It is even more convenient, because there is no need to connect to nerves, which reduces the possibility of fatal rejection reactions. side effects.
This limb technology comes from Snake's world, Zadonov's prosthetic hand, which is the cutting-edge technology of the Eastern camp in that world.
The trouble at first was to find materials. Fortunately, Xie Yuan had perfectly scanned Zadonov's entire hand before, and later used some complete information on Peace Walker and $100,000 to the alliance, using Zadonov as a matchmaker. In exchange for corresponding research materials.
For the sake of cost, Xie Yuan wrapped aluminum alloy with plastic, added a rechargeable battery with a household charging interface, and made the first finished product, called a myoelectric prosthetic hand, with the help of a multi-purpose tool.
Next, Xie Yuan began to issue patents in his own name for a complete set of bionic theories and technologies related to myoelectric prosthetic hands.
The Eastern camp in this world has not developed similar bionic technology... They have other research on implants, but there is no clear direction to develop in this direction.
Therefore, this information on bionic technology theory is unique to Xie Yuan in this world.
The birth of bionic limbs did not surprise the world too much, and Xie Yuan did not want to be too public about it, but for subsequent development, he had to open a company.
Because this was something excavated in Snake's world, and the world is most famous for the giant nuclear bomb carrying platform (Metal Gear), Xie Yuan directly applied for a sole proprietorship company using Metal Gear as the company name, with 200,000 US dollars. Capital injection.
Where did the two hundred thousand dollars come from? Hmm... This was also obtained after going through a bloody storm. The process was very boring. It was nothing more than secretly raiding several gang bars in the next few states.
A total of two million U.S. dollars were grabbed, but after layers of money laundering, Xie Yuan was able to get only so much legal income - three hundred thousand dollars... This was because the accountant he found thought that one million of them belonged to him. Only then agreed.
After getting the company registration, Xie Yuan directly used multi-purpose tools in the warehouse to make one in two days, using materials of nearly 20,000 yuan, and made a total of 18 pairs in two months, and then took 3 pairs of them. Six arms, looking for targets willing to experiment near the disability department of a relatively affluent hospital in Los Angeles.
In Xie Yuan's former metaworld and later main world, this type of myoelectric prosthetic hand was only officially developed in 2008. For this reason, in this world, Xie Yuan was 18 years ahead of schedule!
Although in Snake's world, this technology is half a century ahead of schedule.
But Xie Yuan added his own miniaturization technology on the basis of this technology - a myogenic sensor made of biomaterials developed in the space age and clamped at the joint. It can feel the current conveyed by the brain to the greatest extent and improve the reaction speed. Achieve one-to-one sensitivity with humans.
Compared with mechanical metal arms with nerve connections, the bionic arm developed by Xie Yuan has indeed captured the hearts of many disabled people who are not interested in mechanical arms.
In order for the robotic arm to be rebuilt on the wound, the machine needs to be forcibly connected to the nerves - severe pain and infection deter many people.
But this kind of external sensing technology allows people to enjoy the same flexibility as natural human hands while not suffering huge pain.
"The Rebirth of Financial Giants"
After all the six donated "arms" were used, the analog signal telephone set by Xie Yuan in the office was quickly blown up!
In just one month, Xie Yuan sold all the mid-to-low-end bionic prosthetic hands he had on hand, plus the 20 pairs he would add later.
He even took on the project of 10 myoelectric prosthetic hands for personal customization. In just half a year, Xie Yuan earned a net profit of US$500,000 after tax.
But this ingenious technology aroused the greed of many large medical device companies. They found someone to propose to Xie Yuan: buy out the entire technology for US$500,000.
Xie Yuan declined them politely. With technology that was decades in advance, if you asked Xie Yuan 10 million, he would probably sell all the technical information; at least it would have to be 5 million. So as to attract Xie Yuan to talk.
After all, if there are really 5 million or 10 million, Xie Yuan can use it to study other valuable things - to obtain advanced science and technology and the use of animals and plants from the Source Star. If not, he can study the T and G viruses that he took. That's ok too.
But you give me 500,000! This is the price for sending a beggar. The information on Xie Yuan is flooding. This alone can generate profits of more than tens of millions of dollars.
Xie Yuan was prepared for the worst, but he never expected that they did not even make any public announcements about the acquisition, nor did they even send anyone to buy out the technology.
They directly spent 500,000 US dollars to recover 10 low-level bionic arms from more than a dozen volunteers, and another 5 advanced-modified bionic arms, and conducted naked reverse engineering!
Fortunately, other things are easy to deal with in this era, but the sensing system - EMG (electromyogenic) module, EMG signal sending and receiving module were all improved by Xie Yuan using technology a hundred years later!
Use a multi-purpose tool to sew it into a whole, embedded between the mechanical movement bracket and the outer skin. Once the arm is damaged, take out this part - under the light sensitivity, the entire device will overheat and melt the entire device.
In a word, you are qualified to use this kind of prosthetic hand, but you have no ability to imitate it!
At this time, large companies began to be determined to win this technology, but the usual methods of Yingjiang Capital were used again.
During the day, Xie Yuan was on the phone. He had just talked with a representative of one of the large companies. Based on market profits, he asked for a price of four million U.S. dollars to inject metal gears as the capital to expand production capacity. At the same time, Xie Yuan invested in technology at a price of six million, and the merger together became its subsidiaries.
This is indeed a bit arrogant condition, but Xie Yuan believes that myoelectric prosthetic hand and subsequent corresponding bionic limb technology are definitely worth the price.
And the price is not negotiable.
But the next few companies suddenly stopped talking - well, it seems that the big companies are trying to be tough. After all, they think they think highly of you when they talk to you, so you still dare to make an offer? ! Dare you ask a high price? !
Against you! You must be punished.
But after all, Metal Gear Company is a workshop-style enterprise, and you can't use too many commercial methods to restrict it.
Even the raw materials cannot be stuck. The medical device company originally thought that these plastics were medical plastics plus titanium alloy, but they never expected that they were just ordinary plastics plus aluminum alloy!
They can publicize it in newspapers, TV, etc., so that disabled people should not use such "inferior" prostheses that are of poor quality and made of poor materials.
But this damage move is for medical device companies of the same size or size, but it cannot be used on metal gears - it is too small, and any public opinion storm will only gain but not damage it.
And the key is that this type of "manual prosthetic limb" has a good reputation in some circles. Many people use it very comfortably, and it is no different from a normal arm.
Xie Yuan doesn’t particularly want to grow bigger, so if no one is willing to invest, he is happy to continue developing in the form of this handicraft workshop.
Anyway, after the subsequent profits were almost accumulated, Xie Yuan used the funds to invest in some biotechnology, specializing in studying alien life.
But Xie Yuan could afford to wait, but others couldn't wait any longer. In less than a year, interested people discovered that he had paid $500,000 in taxes to the IRS by selling "handmade prosthetics"!
This is what he paid truthfully even though he didn’t know how to avoid taxes reasonably!
This has made medical device companies extremely jealous - a handicraft workshop can generate an income of two million. If they have strong production capabilities, how much profit can they create!
This little metal gear is robbing them of their money! ! ! !
So just after the New Year of 1987, in the middle of the night one day, around one o'clock, Xie Yuan was in his room and just fell asleep.
Several sentinel drones in the multi-purpose tool suddenly sent out vibrating warnings: A large number of hostile signals were approaching!
This made Xie Yuan, who had just fallen asleep, immediately open his eyes, open the window, pick up the dagger and silenced pistol, quietly open the window, and jump out.
