I Found A Planet

"Little Brother Ze, you have AIDs?"

Although the fact was a little shocking, Chen Jin was not entirely surprised.

"I reminded you to pay attention to safety, but did you listen to me? Money cannot help to repair this disease."

"Brother Chen, how can you say this to me?" asked Wang Zeyu. "You make it sound like I couldn't wait to get AIDs. Can't you say something to comfort me?"

Wang Zeyu was about to have a breakdown. The whole world had abandoned him, but he'd never thought that Brother Chen would do the same.

Chen Jin coughed a couple of times. Due to the surveillance system, he knew very well how many women Wang Zeyu had slept with, including many female celebrities. The number of short movies that he had saved in the past few years numbered, at the very least, in the thousands. Wang Zeyu had been with more than 100 women, and some of them were even very popular female leads in movies. It could even be said that he'd slept with half the entertainment industry.

This was somewhat related to Chen Jin. Wang Zeyu was one of his few friends. They referred to each other as "brother." Wang Zeyu often told women that the rich and famous Chen Jin was his brother, which made him very popular as a result.

"Little Brother Ze, don't be too sad. Nowadays, AIDS is not that terrible. As long as it is properly treated, your life expectancy can be extended by at least 20 years," Chen Jin comforted him.

There were many treatments for AIDs. The most advanced treatment methods were said to extend the life of patients for more than 30 years. An AIDs patient could have a lifespan that was nearly the same as that of an ordinary person.

"I know, I have checked this information." Wang Zeyu said as he grabbed his hair. "But I might as well be dead now! Everyone looks at me like I'm a ghost. My friends have left me. My siblings hide when they see me. Even my parents are not willing to see me. They want to deprive me of my inheritance and disown me!" He gritted his teeth. "I was abandoned by the whole world. It is better to die than to live like this!"

Human relationships changed daily, and the world was filled with hypocrisy. Only in times of danger could one see the hearts of men. Of course, part of this situation was due to his own actions. He could not imagine how the pure sweet girl he'd known could have been a carrier of such a horrid disease. When he thought of the girl's departure and the weird smile that she'd flashed in his direction, filled with all sorts of meaning, Wang Zeyu felt chilled to the bones. He had fallen. The goose-hunter had been pecked and made blind by his prey. He could not deny that this was a kind of retribution.

He did not deserve to be reduced to such a tragic end, however. He just liked to play around with women. He did not do any other bad things. He did not do drugs, in fact, on multiple occasions, he had reported others anonymously for taking drugs. He'd even received several prizes because of this. That was a suitably good thing, right? How could a good person like him receive this terrible retribution? He could not accept this. He really could not.

"Little Brother Ze, don't be agitated. Think about your age, you're only 30 years old. You're not married, you have no children. There's a lot of happiness that you've not yet experienced. You still have a long life, do you want to die like this?" Chen Jin asked.

"I don't want to, Brother Chen, I don't want to." On the other end of the phone, Wang Zeyu wailed loudly. "Brother Chen, I'm scared, I'm really scared, I don't want to die!"

At this moment, he was helpless, like a child.

"How about this," Chen Jin replied. "You could come to my villa in Junting Grand Court. I'll get the best doctor to look you over and see if he can cure this."

"What?" Wang Zeyu was stunned. "Brother… Brother Chen…you'll let me go to your place?" he stuttered. "You are willing to take me in? Brother Chen, you're not abandoning me?"

"We are brothers," Chen Jin said calmly. "And since we're brothers, how could I abandon you?"

Wang Zeyu's tears rolled down his face like he was about to die.

"Brother Chen. You are the person who treats me the best in this world. After this, my life will be yours, I will obey you forever!"

The mounting despair that Wang Zeyu had felt since he received the news was eased slightly. Everyone had ridiculed or attacked him. They'd rubbed salt in his wounds and abandoned him. Only Brother Chen had shown him some warmth and kindness. He was the only lamp in Wang Zeyu's endless darkness. He was so touched that his cheeks streamed with tears.

"Ok ok, stop being mushy. Come over, I will help you think of solutions," Chen Jin said.

…

Junting Grand Court, Two Hours Later

Chen Jin's robot double saw little brother Ze. He looked absent-minded, unkempt and unshaven; his overall image was that of a beggar. Chen Jin's eyes swept over his left wrist. In his heart, he was sure that the watch was still on his hand. He nodded slightly. It looked like things could be settled this time. He stepped forward and patted Wang Zeyu's shoulder. The first sentence that Chen Jin spoke made light shine from the sick man's eyes.

"Little Brother Ze, you can rest assured. I have a way to cure this disease!"

Doubt and disbelief immediately clouded Wang Zeyu's face. How was it possible to cure AIDS? This was an incurable disease! There was practically no cure.

In reality, medical institutions had explored dozens of treatment programs since the birth of the AIDS disease. However, most treatment options could only offer effective relief; they could not completely cure the disease itself.

HIV was very fragile. There were many ways to kill it. For example, there was a kind of red wine that could kill up to 70% of HIV in the body after ingestion. Also, AIDs medications like Tivicay, Truvada, etc could kill HIV in the human body. However, the power of HIV was in its ability to make a comeback. Even if 99.9% of the virus was killed, as long as there was one cell remaining, the disease would return.

HIV was very smart. After experiencing danger, it would hide in T cells and go into a dormant state. It would erupt again after a while. It was very difficult to remove its roots.

Also, due to the virus' increasing resistance to medication, many drugs would gradually become ineffective against HIV. Patients would eventually die from various complications flaring up. AIDS was one of the most difficult diseases to overcome.

Of course, the most terrible thing about AIDS was the various social and ethical issues it brought on. Besides, the patient had to face public criticism, alienation by family and friends, intangible isolation, etc. These mental wounds were far worse than the physical symptoms of the illness.

However, in Chen Jin's book, AIDS was not even worth mentioning. Based on Haierfa's level of medical technology, there were at least five or six ways to cure AIDs. There was genetic engineering, nano-robot removal, drug blocking, etc. It was as easy as dealing with a cold.

"Brother Chen, are those only words of comfort? I've checked a lot of information. AIDs is difficult to cure!" Wang Zeyu said.

"Little Brother Ze, this is a surprise that I want to give you," Chen Jin explained. "Even I have just learned about this. A biological research center under Xing Hai Technologies has developed a brand new drug that cuts off a certain gene on human T cell DNA. This would prevent the disease from identifying a target for invasion. After the virus has been cleared out, another drug can be used to repair the gene. This will achieve a perfect cure for AIDS."

Chen Jin had done his homework beforehand.

Wang Zeyu's eyes finally lit up, his face was filled with hope.

That's great! Really great!" he exclaimed with great emotion.

Chen Jin's professional tone comforted Wang Zeyu. He was probably not lying, there was a cure!

"Little Brother Ze, I can give you the cure. However, you have to pay a little treatment fee by giving me something," Chen Jin said.

"Ah, what do you want, Brother Chen? If I have it, I will give it to you right away!"

Wang Zeyu was a little nervous. He was only left with a few thousand dollars as spare change. His family had frozen several of his bank accounts and he could not withdraw much money.

Chen Jin smiled.

"Give me the watch on your left hand. I've always wanted to collect this watch," he said.

"Ok, Brother Chen, I will give you this watch!"

Wang Zeyu took off the watch on his wrist. Compared with his own life, what was the value of a mere watch? Chen Jin reached out to receive the watch and gave a silent sigh. The last atomic watch had come back to him.

"Little Brother Ze, please believe in the technology of my company. The next few weeks will be your journey of resurrection! You will get a new life."

"Ok!" Wang Zeyu nodded.

…

In Junting Grand Court, Wang Zeyu actively cooperated with the various treatments that Chen Jin had arranged for him.

On another side of the country, chaos was occurring. Nobody knew who it was, but someone had exposed the news that Wang Zeyu (Young Master Wang) had contracted AIDS. They shared the medical report, which was akin to a fatal blow.

In an instant, a bomb had been dropped on the entire entertainment industry!
