Gao Yuan's face looked a little strange, and she felt a little funny.
Mr. Meng, the person you introduced described the technical information you gave me as "ridiculously wrong."
Does this count as shooting yourself in the foot?
What expression should I use to tell you about this?
"Hmm... is it possible that you made a wrong judgment?" Gao Yuan said with a smile.
Compared to a little-known university professor, she was still more willing to believe in Meng Lang and the forces behind him.
When she thought of "zero" and Meng Lang's bizarre evaluation of her organization's technological research and development capabilities as "unprecedented and unprecedented", Gao Yuan was convinced...
"this……"
Gao Yuan's unabashed confidence made Zheng Dalu confused for a moment how to answer the question.
It seems a bit disrespectful to continue to argue with others about academic rights and wrongs, and besides, they are obviously not scientific researchers.
Don't argue...
You say I made a wrong judgment?
Do you know that you are questioning the world’s mainstream research direction?!
"Professor Zheng, the meal is ready."
Seeing that the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward, Tang Yun smiled and took the initiative to speak.
"Well! Professor Zheng, it's almost time, so we won't disturb you.
For specific issues related to scientific research projects, you can wait for Professor Zheng to visit the company and then discuss it with the company’s relevant technical personnel after joining the company.”
Gao Yuan said and stood up.
"Uh... Director Gao, why don't you stay for a casual meal?"
Zheng Dalu looked at the dishes prepared on the table and said a little embarrassedly.
"No, the company has something else to do in the afternoon, and we have to rush back.
This is Tang Yun, our company’s human resources director, who is responsible for Professor Zheng’s subsequent visit, reception and induction. Director Tang will contact Professor Zheng later.”
Tang Yun smiled and handed over a business card.
"Professor Zheng, if you need anything, you can contact me at any time. I look forward to your joining."
After seeing off the two of them, Zheng Dalu was still staring at the business card in his hand in a daze.
When I was worried about the follow-up work, someone came to deliver a copy, and it was delivered by the chairman himself, which was somewhat untrue.
He is self-aware, and based on the status of both parties, he can be called a courtesy corporal, and the offer he made is really irresistible.
It's just that the other party's research project...
Zheng Dalu couldn't help but frown.
When a thousand-mile horse meets Bole and is appreciated by others, it is impossible to say that he is not grateful in his heart.
Because of his gratitude, he began to worry about his "prospective boss" before he officially took up the job.
According to current mainstream academic research, Aβ protein deposition leads to fibrillary tangles of Tau protein, which then leads to nerve cell atrophy and death.
This is the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease recognized by academic circles.
However, there has never been a clear research result as to what causes protein precipitation.
Microorganisms, aging, neuroinflammation, etc. are all possible causes.
Another theory is that Alzheimer's is more of a syndrome than a disease, with multiple causes and therefore likely not being curable by a single type of drug.
Among these many academic speculations, the "β-amyloid hypothesis" is currently the mainstream hypothesis for Alzheimer's disease.
In the 1990s, a research paper titled "Specific β-amyloid protein in the brain impairs memory" published by the famous science and technology journal "Nature" across the ocean pushed Alzheimer's research to a new level.
The article points out that Aβ56, an oligomer of Aβ protein, can cause memory impairment.
The core content of the paper is that researchers purified Aβ56 and injected it into young mice, and found that the young mice had serious defects in their memory ability.
This is equivalent to directly proving that Aβ56 is the cause of Alzheimer's disease.
Since then, for a long period of time, the world's mainstream Alzheimer's disease treatment technology has centered on the study of Aβ56-targeted drugs.
After all, if you want to see further, you have to stand on the shoulders of giants. There is no reason to sacrifice the near for the far.
However, the related research projects of Evergreen Biotechnology are taking such a road that no one has ever traveled before...
Although it is only a disease prediction technology, prediction technology can be regarded as a "pre-processing" technology for treatment.
The theories are of the same origin.
If you start in the wrong direction, you will always get wrong results...
"But having said that, this new research direction..."
Professor Zheng couldn't help but think of the information he just saw in his mind.
After carefully considering each word, he had to admit that this non-mainstream research direction was not without merit...
In recent years, the number of patients with Alzheimer's disease has continued to increase. Today, about one person in the world develops Alzheimer's disease every 3 seconds.
It is expected that by 2050, the number of patients with this disease will increase to 152 million.
Under the huge market space and rigid demand, pharmaceutical giants are rushing into drug research and development in this field.
Relevant research and development has entered the age of navigation.
However... Roche, Pfizer, Eli Lilly, no matter how much talent and money they invested, these giant ships going to sea collectively failed!
So far, there is no specific drug that can cure Alzheimer's. In the past ten years or so, more than a hundred new drugs have failed in development, with a clinical failure rate as high as 97.3%!
This great channel of Alzheimer’s can be called a sinkhole in the industry!
After the industry experienced several relatively concentrated setbacks, many pharmaceutical companies withdrew from the field of Alzheimer's disease and even the entire central nervous system disease field.
The waves have washed away the sand, and now there are only a handful of companies still developing related drugs.
There are really too many research and development failures around "Aβ56"...
It is said that some foreign companies have begun to discuss bypassing "Aβ56" and starting to study "Aβ42" and other drugs targeting Tau and inflammation.
But it's just a discussion.
Before the results come out, the choice of evergreen creatures cannot be said to be 100% wrong.
But in Professor Zheng's opinion, the probability of failure of this radical non-mainstream R&D strategy is too high.
Even world-class pharmaceutical giants with strong financial resources dare not try it easily, let alone companies like Evergreen Biotech, which can only be ranked at the bottom.
He really couldn't figure it out.
It is somewhat incredible that a small domestic pharmaceutical company like Evergreen Biotech would set its sights on the top medical pearl of "Alzheimer's disease".
And the other party actually wants to be the first to eat crabs...
The first person to successfully eat crabs is certainly enviable, but you can’t see how many people died directly on the beach?
In this regard, he could only say... His courage is commendable, but it is completely a big gamble!
It seems that we still need to explain the stakes to Director Gao in detail.
Don't let others fool you. Someone is deliberately trying to harm Director Gao, right?
"Dad, do you really want to go to my company?" At this time, Zheng Wan handed over the delicious meal.
"Well... let's go over and take a look first before talking."
Zheng Dalu was thinking about something and took over the job absentmindedly.
When Zheng Wan saw this, she thought her father was being embarrassed about her choice of new job.
I had no choice but to serve myself a bowl of rice and sit down to eat quietly.
But as soon as he took a mouthful of fish and stuffed it into his mouth, his expression suddenly became startled, and gradually his face seemed to darken...
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Sensing his son's abnormality, Zheng Dalu was startled, thinking that the fish was too unpalatable, so he took a bite and put it into his mouth.
Huh? No way, this fish is full of color, flavor and taste, is it extremely delicious?
"It's nothing, it's just this smell that reminds me of my mother..."
Zheng Dalu: "..."
He sighed, put down his chopsticks, and touched Zheng Wan's head.
"Don't worry, I will replace your mother and take good care of you."
Hearing this, Zheng Wan looked up at Lao Zheng and continued eating.
After taking a few bites, I finally couldn't help but raise my head again, with a serious look on my face.
"Dad, you may be very busy at work in the future, and the cooking you do cannot really be called taking care of me.
Otherwise...you should find an aunt for your family, right?"
Zheng Dalu: "..."
…
"Director Gao, it seems that you value Professor Zheng very much?"
"Yeah! That's right. If he decides to join the company, after he comes, as long as the requirements are not too excessive, we will try our best to satisfy him."
"Ok, I see!
I saw that he seemed very concerned about his son, so I looked back to see if I could take care of him in this regard.
To be honest, I have recruited so many employees, but this is the first one like Professor Zheng who bluntly refused to work overtime on the spot.
Although caring about the family is quite admirable..."
Hearing this, Gao Yuan turned to look at Tang Yun with a smile.
"Isn't that just right? I'm single as well. I saw how you were cooking in the kitchen just now. Don't tell me, it's quite harmonious."
Tang Yun immediately made a big blush.
"Director Gao, what are you talking about!"
"Well! I just think it's really wise to bring you here today.
I originally wanted to use Sangu Thatched Cottage, but I accidentally used a beauty trick!" Gao Yuan said with a smile.
Tang Yun: "..."
The threads of fate are so strange, because if any one of them is plucked, the surroundings will become a mess.
You can't tell which one is supposed to end.
And which one is connected to which one inadvertently...
