Although Chen Xin's reasons were compelling, ultimately he failed to persuade Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan.
Of course, neither did they persuade Chen Xin to abandon his idea of genetic modification.
The discussion among the three nearly ended on a sour note, but eventually, Chen Xin chose to compromise, promising to proceed gradually, starting with simple genetic enhancement and adjustment, creating the Adjuvant from the Gundam series, instead of jumping straight into creating Space Marines.
While essentially there is no fundamental difference between the two, in terms of acceptability by ordinary people, it was much more palatable.
Moreover, for Chen Xin, creating Adjuvants was also considerably simpler.
