Chapter 496 In times of crisis, life-saving technology
Shen Wei did feel a different atmosphere recently and said, "Maybe it's the seasonal flu."
But Shen Wei suddenly remembered that since last year, Chen Xiao had repeatedly told herself to stay on campus and not go out as much as possible during last winter and this spring.
She never knew what Chen Xiao meant.
Just yesterday, Chen Xiao called her specifically and asked her not to go out. She vaguely felt that something was wrong.
At this time, the TV in the dormitory was playing real-time news.
The anchor of Xiaguo TV station said on the TV with a solemn expression: "Now there is an urgent news..."
Listening to the news and watching the tense scenes on the news, Shen Wei and her roommates realized that the flu in the spring of 2003 was not an ordinary flu.
At this time, the phone in the dormitory also rang.
Yenching University informed that due to special circumstances, students at the school are not allowed to go out...
The spring of 2003 was destined to be uneventful.
Chen Xiao also saw media reports in Jiangzhou and was notified by relevant departments.
What was supposed to come came.
Chen Xiao was really helpless about this matter.
After all, he currently does not have anti-virus technology at his disposal, and if he made an appeal to the outside world to reduce the number of people traveling in Yangcheng and Yanjing, it might not have any effect, and would instead arouse suspicion from others.
Looking at the patients shown on the news, Chen Xiao also felt the power of history rolling forward.
Time moving forward is irresistible and irreversible.
As a member of the longest history, all Chen Xiao can do is to let himself and the people around him live well.
Chen Xiao thought that if he went crazy on the biomedical technology tree now, he didn't know if he would be able to save more lives in more than ten or twenty years.
Chen Xiaoyou repeatedly called her parents and people she cared about, asking them to avoid going out and stay at home.
During this period, in addition to the operation of Changtian Technology's factories and research laboratories, all outdoor work has also been suspended, including the trial of 3G base stations in Jiangzhou.
Regarding 3G base stations, Chen Xiao also knows that you can't rely on your words for related technologies. Only by making things can you negotiate terms with others.
During this period, Nokia's global new mobile phone has already handed over some battery orders to companies such as Panasonic and Samsung Chemical. Changtian Technology's lithium battery profits have been partially reduced compared to the same period last year.
In the Saipan era, the performance of lithium batteries had a comprehensive appropriate value, which was approximately between 900 mAh and 1500 mAh.
Even if Changtian Technology launches lithium batteries with better performance, Nokia will not be interested, because the power consumption threshold of the Symbian system is there, and this value is just enough. Purchasing better lithium batteries will increase Nokia's cost.
The gain outweighs the loss.
This situation was also expected by Chen Xiao. There was not much friendship and loyalty between the company and the company. The most important thing was interests.
When Changtian Technology and Nokia signed a three-article cooperation agreement, Nokia humiliatedly agreed.
To be honest, Nokia has been unhappy with Changtian Technology for a long time.
Article 1: Changtian Technology and Nokia jointly established a mobile phone assembly and production factory in Jiangzhou, with each party holding 50% of the shares. Nokia shared mobile phone assembly and production-related technologies with Changtian Technology. Two years later, the mobile phone produced by the factory
The total volume must account for 30% of Nokia's total global sales, otherwise the ownership of the factory will completely belong to Changtian Technology.
Nokia has completed this, and part of the production capacity of the mobile phone assembly plant has been integrated into Tiangong Technology.
Changtian Technology has actually mastered the production technology of the first generation of smartphones. As long as there are chips, Changtian can produce mobile phones immediately.
Chen Xiao hasn't touched the mobile phone line yet, she has been waiting for the best opportunity.
Article 2: Nokia provides Changtian Technology with an interest-free loan of no less than US$5 million, which will be used exclusively for the construction of lithium battery factories and the expansion of production capacity.
Nokia has also fully fulfilled its contract. Although the number of lithium batteries purchased by Nokia from Changtian Technology has decreased, Changtian Technology's lithium batteries have also been sold to Ericsson, Motorola and other companies, which can be regarded as making up for Nokia's missing orders to a certain extent.
Although Nokia cooperated with Changtian Technology at the beginning, it actually had emotions in its heart. Now that companies such as Toyo and South Korea have substitute products, of course they will immediately transfer some lithium battery orders.
Nokia is not stupid and certainly knows that eggs cannot be put in the same basket.
Chen Xiaomao is taking a nap in the office.
Jiangzhou is a little bit south of the Xiaguo North-South Line, which happens to miss the mandatory arrangement of heating equipment by the state.
The little sun was baking warmly on the ground, and the cell phone rang rapidly.
The call from Xia Guo Academy of Sciences was from Wu Yong.
Wu Yong's tone was very anxious and he said: "Chen Xiao, do you know about the situation in Yangcheng and Yanjing during this period?"
Chen Xiao has been paying attention and said: "I know, all our outdoor work has been suspended."
Wu Yong said: "Several institutes of biology and medicine under the Xia Academy of Sciences are cooperating with major hospitals in Yanjing to conduct research on S-virus. Currently, there is no particularly good treatment."
"Currently we use protease inhibitors, lopinavir and Ritonavir, which have some effect, but are not useful for severe cases."
"In severe cases, we use glucocorticoids, which can save the patient's life."
Chen Xiao already knew what Wu Yong was going to say.
Glucocorticoids can indeed improve the survival rate of patients in extremely critical cases, but the sequelae are also quite obvious, and they are only used in severe cases.
Wu Yong said: "Many patients here in Yanjing have severe interstitial fibrosis in the lungs, which is irreversible."
"Life comes first, I thought of you immediately!"
Wu Yong said seriously: "I think Professor Li Dingsheng's treatment method can be widely promoted. It has also been reported to the national departments. The relevant departments have decided to save lives at all costs!"
After gene shearing of Rhodospirillum and cyanobacteria, they replaced photosynthesis with electric charge. In the study of the combined mechanism of oxygen production in living organisms and the needs of living organisms, this treatment method was indeed applied to Li Dingsheng.
But this was to save Li Dingsheng's life, and it was more of a private act, not an act of the hospital.
All in all, Chen Xiao's technology was approved by the relevant departments after being reported to them before. However, it also needs to go through animal, clinical and other experimental procedures. The procedures are currently in progress and are jointly implemented by Changtian Technology and Xia Guo Academy of Sciences.
Changtian Technology is in charge of Shu Rou, Qu Ping and Huang Ling, Wu Yong’s three apprentices and now Chen Xiao’s apprentices.
The reason why Chen Xiao was so eager to launch this technology was that, in addition to Li Dingsheng, the main reason was the past events from the end of 2002 to the beginning of 2003.
Before his rebirth, Chen Xiao watched a documentary called "S's Back, People with Forgotten and Amnesia Sequels".
It tells about the people who were rescued back to life during this period of history, but suffered serious sequelae.
Bone necrosis and other minor sequelae are minor sequelae. Even if you are in a wheelchair, you can still survive.
The biggest sequelae is the lungs.
Severe interstitial pulmonary fibrosis makes the patient's later life miserable, almost even when he or she needs oxygen or before death.
Pulmonary fibrosis is similar to Li Dingsheng's lung condition when it was at its worst. It makes you sane and the rest of your body is healthy, but you can't breathe even after being kicked, and you will be exhausted to death.
Is this condition easy to treat?
It is indeed very healing.
Because there are no other serious diseases in the body, only the lungs need to be replaced to survive.
But it sounds simple to say, but it is quite difficult to do. On the one hand, it is because relying on the surgical technology in 2003, it is difficult for Xia Guo to perform lung replacement surgery. On the other hand, even if this surgery is available, there are not so many suitable people.
A lung source will be replaced for you. In addition, even if you meet the first two conditions and you successfully complete the lung replacement surgery, you will still need to take rejection drugs for life.
Compared with lung replacement, the technology developed by Chen Xiao is much lower cost, has a very high safety factor, has a high success rate, and can save the lives of critically ill patients.
Wu Yong said: "After I reported this matter to the relevant departments, the relevant departments were ready to immediately use the combined colony treatment method to save the patient's life at all costs. All costs will be borne by the state!"
After hearing this, Chen Xiao felt a little emotional.
2003 was the time when the Communist Party was rampant, especially on forums. Almost everyone used a magnifying glass to look for the country’s shortcomings. Once they found it, they started to criticize it, and then talked about how the West was, and many classics were made.
story.
For example, students in Dongyang go to and from school by themselves, and their parents never pick them up or drop them off. After watching a football game, there is no trash in the stands.
For another example, in the United States, every household lives in a villa, and the social welfare is very high. Even if you lie there without working, the government will still give you food, shelter, and free medical treatment.
These jokes have been circulating for more than ten years, until around 2020, when all the rumors were shattered in less than a year.
The nature of the world is that the weak eat the strong, and Western society pursues Darwinism, where the strong survive and the weak are eliminated.
Chen Xiao agreed very much and then said: There is no so-called perfection in the world, and the place you live in is also imperfect. If you are unhappy, just build it.
Chen Xiao can be considered a person who has died once. He feels that life is just that big of a deal. People who live in this world should live to change the world.
Chen Xiao immediately said to Wu Yong: "I'm sending Shu Rou, Qu Ping and Huang Ling with their team, equipment, instruments, and culture fluid to assist you."
Wu Yong was overjoyed and said: "I will apply to the department in Yanjing and charter a flight for them immediately!"
Chen Xiao joked: "Now that the whole country is united, Changtian Technology can still pay for the charter flight."
By this time, Kelly had arrived in Yanjing. Through his acquaintances in Yanjing's academic circles, he visited Li Dingsheng at the Xia Academy of Sciences.
He saw with his own eyes that Li Dingsheng, who had lost most of his lungs and lost lung function, still persisted in his job.
Because they were introduced by an old friend, Li Dingsheng also gave all his inspection reports to Kelly for review.
When Kelly saw the changes in Li Dingsheng's lung CT surgery before and after, he couldn't help but be shocked: "Oh, my god!"
Moreover, Kelly happened to encounter a major rescue operation by the Xia Academy of Sciences Biological Laboratory and Medical Center at this time.
