During these days in the United States, Robert's arrangements were very reasonable. In terms of time, he was neither impatient nor procrastinating and wasting time.
Yang Ping's goal of coming to the United States has been fully realized. Four surgeries were successfully completed. The patent license for a set of equipment was also successfully sold. The US$20 million raised has been received. There is no need to worry about the funds for his project for the time being.
Everything went much smoother than expected. Bacon said that knowledge is power. In other words, technology is money. There seems to be no big problem.
Moreover, there will be another 20 million U.S. dollars coming in every year for twenty years. Scientific research projects will have continuous financial support, and I don’t have to worry about oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar.
From now on, Yang Ping will have enough energy to realize his poetry and his distant future.
Xiao Su is right, only if you have money can you not be controlled by others and can you freely display your talents.
The reason why Musk is willful is because he has a strong ability to make money and can make money to research the fields he is interested in.
Money is not a bad thing, nor is it garbage. A gentleman loves money and gets it in a wise way.
In the past, Yang Ping always had many weird ideas, but he had no chance to realize them. With the support of the system, there would be no obstacles to realizing them. Even if he failed, he would only lose points.
During this time in the United States, Yang Ping had already started conducting experiments in the System Space Laboratory.
Although the system space does not occupy real time, the system space, whether it is the operating room, laboratory, or library, is similar to a closed space in reality. No one interacts with Yang Ping inside.
In a closed space, there is a limit to human psychological endurance, which is a natural weakness of human beings. The limit for ordinary people is three to five days. Agents with special training will last longer and can reach several times that of ordinary people.<
/p>
Once the limit is exceeded, it will lead to psychological collapse. The result of psychological collapse will be mental disorders, such as schizophrenia.
People like Yang Ping, who can persist for several months at will and still maintain a healthy mental state, are beyond the scope of normal people.
Without this ability and the mental endurance of steel, Yang Ping might not be able to play this devilish system.
The psychological state when entering the system space is related to the instantaneous psychological state when entering. Therefore, when you enter when you are resting quietly, you will be in the best mental state, and you will naturally stay in it for the longest time.
In the next two days, I visited Robert's clinic and went to the Sports Medicine Department of the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York for teaching rounds.
Yang Ping is generally satisfied with Robert's arrangement.
But when he visited the clinic, Yang Ping was confused by the layout. Chinese knots were hung, blessing characters were pasted, and red lanterns were hung at the gate.
It is China’s Double Happiness.
This was not the Chinatown Wedding Company’s idea, but Robert’s own idea. The company repeatedly reminded them that these were not suitable for such occasions.
But Robert insisted: "You have to be creative, don't stick to the formality, and bring together many festive elements to create extraordinary effects."
It turned out that the effect was very good. Yang Ping asked in surprise: "Whose idea is this?"
Robert proudly said: "I designed the layout myself."
"Talent!" Yang Ping patted Robert's thick shoulder.
Robert was flattered, and Mr. Huang Cheng also gave a thumbs up for his unique use of Chinese culture.
On Friday, Yang Ping, as Teacher Robert, conducted ward rounds in the Sports Medicine Department of the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York. The teaching rounds lasted for a full four hours.
After a question and answer session and a lecture, the doctors at New York Hospital for Special Surgery were completely conquered, and even the hardest stones were broken. This ward round became a real teaching round.
Professor Jung warmly invited Yang Ping to go to the Joint Replacement Center for ward rounds. Unfortunately, Yang Ping was exhausted and could not do such a large-scale ward round again, so he could only refuse.
This made Jung very upset and felt that from now on, the technical gap between him and Robert would widen.
Five days in the United States will pass quickly, and Yang Ping will leave the United States on Saturday.
Johannesson couldn't escape for a while in Houston and called several times to apologize to Yang Ping.
Griffin and Woodhead took the time to rush to New York, met with Yang Ping, and both warmly invited Yang Ping to visit their hospital for exchanges.
Unfortunately, there is not enough time and he must return to China as expected. Corey still has a lot of things waiting for him.

At the NASA headquarters in Washington, the chief medical officer received Collins' report and immediately met with Director Jim Bartha urgently. Human lives were at stake, and the Director immediately held an emergency meeting.
There is nothing else to discuss. The doctors have already made plans. When the director comes to make a decision, isn't there a rocket launch mission in more than ten days? Let SpaceX's Falcon 9 launch early, and the Dragon spacecraft will take Susan and medical equipment to the sky.
.
Kennedy Space Center, Merritt Island, located on the east coast of Florida, in the eastern United States.
Although the Falcon 9 rocket is ready, a sudden early launch will disrupt the plan. Pre-launch inspections, meteorological assessments, and personnel adjustments need to be re-planned.
Susan was originally an astronaut. She has been in training and can go to space at any time.
But she needed individual training on cerebral angiography. Mayo Clinic radiologists were invited to Houston to work with the medical team to train Dr. Susan how to complete an angiography in a microgravity environment. She only needed to complete the operation safely. As for reading
Leave the tablets or whatever to the doctor on the ground.
The NASA supplies department purchased the list of drugs and instruments issued by Collins as quickly as possible, but these things were not easy to handle. Both drugs and instruments needed to be modified.
The X-ray machine that can complete digital subtraction angiography cannot be adapted to rocket transportation and space station use. The manufacturer is required to modify it to adapt to this mission.
The contrast agent iohexol is required to be made into a ready-to-use syringe loading model. Drawing the liquid from the bottle on the space station is really a laborious task for anyone.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Fortunately, astronauts have tested common drugs that require allergy testing on the ground, and it has been recorded that Steven is not allergic to iodine contrast agents.
Otherwise, you have to go through a lot of trouble to transport the medicine and do an allergy test. If the result is positive, it will be troublesome.
Other cerebrovascular DSA kits are also specially sterilized and packaged to ensure smooth use on the space station.
Building 1 of Space City in Houston often has lights on all night long.
The sensitive reporters smelled something unusual, and they began to inquire everywhere. What exactly happened in Houston?
Rocket launch explosion? It should be earth-shattering. It seems that there is something wrong with the International Space Station in the sky.
Is it another leak in the drill hole? It can't be that simple. The light stays on for the longest time and most frequently is in the office of the medical team.
Reporters are probably interested in the issue of astronaut health. The International Space Station is what Americans are most concerned about.
Even the president's office romance can be written about in newspapers and media. There is nothing these reporters dare not write about.
NASA was very calm and satisfied everyone's curiosity. It held a press conference and told everyone to be patient. Astronaut Steven encountered a little trouble and his heart rate slowed down. The reason still needs further investigation, but NASA
We are confident that we can solve the problem, and we have already planned to send Dr. Susan and a batch of medicines and medical equipment to the space station on a rocket.
The astronauts are all in good physical condition. They had several physical examinations before going to space, but they did not say they were not allowed to get sick on the space station. It was not a big deal, so most reporters left.
A few reporters think that things are not that simple. A small problem is worth spending hundreds of millions of dollars to send medicines to doctors. Aren't there nine medicine boxes on it? The Russians also have a dozen medicine boxes, and the total is solved by more than 20 medicine boxes.
If it doesn’t work, is it a little trouble?
The astronauts on the International Space Station had a cold and did not see NASA hold a press conference.
These reporters were so pervasive that they quickly found out that a large group of doctors from Mayo, Johns Hopkins, etc. had already gone to Houston for a meeting, and it was still a minor problem.
Collins whitelisted the director's, colleagues' and family calls, and intercepted all other calls.
He checked the medical rescue plans for Steven one by one. Some of them have been implemented and some have not yet been implemented.
Susan has become proficient in cerebral angiography and has begun training in handling and rescuing unexpected situations, such as allergies caused by contrast media, acute renal failure, etc.
I hope Steven is okay. If there are no organic lesions in the intracranial blood vessels, take atropine orally to increase the heart rate. If there are no abnormalities after monitoring for a period of time, Steven can return to Earth. As long as he can come back, everything will be easy.
The one-in-a-thousand possibility that Johannason is most worried about, no matter what, will make people at a loss.
Collins prayed that Steven would be fine.

While waiting for the flight, Boss Cheng bought a copy of the New York Times and saw Steven's news.
"Musk is going to earn hundreds of millions of dollars again. Will his recyclable Falcon 9 rocket work? Does he really have a lot of money? Or is he just bragging?" Boss Cheng asked Huang Jiacai.
Huang Jiacai is also reading: "Anyone can make NASA money? How many people can do this job? If Lao Ma wants to brag, there are ten thousand comfortable ways to brag. There is no need to use the laborious task of launching a rocket."
Brag about something to please."
"Yes, look, Steven has a physical problem, his heart rate has slowed down, and now NASA's rocket is launched ahead of schedule, and doctors and medicines are delivered by express delivery. Is it true?" Lao Cheng was very interested, and the newspaper trembled.
Rustling.
"International Space Station?" Huang Jiacai closed the book.
"Yes!" Lao Cheng continued to look.
Huang Jiacai leaned over to take a look: "Is this a plan for space rescue?"
Yang Ping is resting and thinking about the experiment. He will get on the plane later. It is quieter on the plane and he can enter the system space to do a few experiments.
"You can board the plane!"
Upon hearing the announcement, Lao Cheng put away the newspaper, dragged his luggage with Huang Jiacai, and the three of them joined the flow of people boarding the plane.
