Wei Kang sat in the office, frowning, lost in thought.
Academician Qi came to visit in person. This matter must be something serious. I wonder what it has to do with?
Everything in the company is currently running well and there are no problems.
I haven't heard of any negative news about anti-cancer drugs. As for health products and cosmetics, he has always paid great attention to after-sales service. Sheng Changya also fully understood his instructions and took any complaints seriously.
Could it be that other pharmaceutical companies want to cooperate with Sanqing and ask Academician Qi to be a lobbyist?
This is possible, but wouldn't it be enough to just make a phone call and make an introduction? It's not worth Academician Qi's coming in person.
Confused, he welcomed Academician Qi and his party.
Academician Qi and his assistants got out of the car on crutches and were greeted by Wei Kang into a spacious and luxurious reception room.
Wei Kang poured hot tea for Academician Qi: "Academician Qi, please drink tea. If you have anything to do, I can just call you. You have come all the way here, but I see that your body has become stronger and stronger recently." "
Academician Qi smiled heartily: "Xiaowei, since we last met, I find you very pleasing to my eye. You are a well-organized person who can achieve great things. No, I usually stay in Haishi, which is very close to here. , it’s nothing to take a walk if you have nothing to do.”
He waved his hand and his assistant handed Wei Kang a copy of the medical records.
"Take a look at this. It should be related to your recent research and development direction of new drugs."
Wei Kang took it over with a puzzled look and found that it was a case of Alzheimer's disease, but the name was not displayed.
He frowned and thought as he read. Judging from the patient's age, almost 70 years old, he was already showing early symptoms such as memory loss.
Could it be that he is a relative or good friend of Academician Qi? Coming for treatment?
However, Sanqing’s research and development of new drugs for Alzheimer’s disease has just begun, and there are no tangible results yet.
He couldn't figure it out for a long time, so he had to ask: "Whose case is this?"
"This is an old academician in the aerospace field. The projects he does are very important to the country and are related to the improvement of the country's international strength in the aerospace field."
"He has made great contributions to the success of the country's aerospace industry, which is no less than my achievements in theoretical physics."
"So, when he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, the country took it very seriously and asked many questions, hoping to find a new drug that could even delay the symptoms. But all the drugs available at home and abroad have been used, except Calming down the patient's mood is not very effective, and the patient's symptoms are getting worse every day."
"The old man's body is already in bad shape due to years of hard work. Many of the drugs used for treatment have too many side effects, and his body can't bear it."
"And due to the old man's physical problems, the national research and development of this project was forced to be suspended, and the person in charge needed to be replaced to take over."
"This made the old man very unbearable. He felt very guilty. He felt that it was all his own fault that led to the cessation of the project. He said he was sorry for the country's years of training, but he fell off the chain at a critical moment. He was depressed for a time, and even had thoughts of committing suicide. , which in turn leads to an exacerbation of the condition.”
"I know you are a genius in the research and development of new drugs, especially the drugs you have developed have very few side effects. The results of your previous anti-cancer drugs also convinced the leaders of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and restored their confidence."
"They just want me to ask you, is it possible for Sanqing to develop a new drug that can treat, no, temporarily delay Alzheimer's disease?"
Wei Kang sighed, feeling the heavy weight of the case in his hand.
This case is of an old man who has made significant contributions to the national aerospace field for the sake of national construction.
There are many such old people in various fields across the country. When they were young, they devoted everything they had to fighting for the rise of the country. The country has become strong and beautiful today, which is inseparable from their hard work and sweat. They have hard work and merit.
However, after reaching their sixties, many elderly people are unfortunately troubled by Alzheimer's disease.
After getting sick, memory impairment will occur at first. You will forget many things and cannot remember the trivial matters of daily life, let alone the content of your work.
Then the brain will begin to shrink, and the patient will lose cognitive abilities, behavioral abilities, and even his personality will change drastically, until he completely becomes an Alzheimer's patient who has lost the ability to take care of himself, has no consciousness, and no memory.
In another sense, the patient is dead.
This is an extremely cruel thing for any old man, let alone an expert and scholar in the field of science and technology.
He will be completely abandoned by the field that he has studied and struggled for most of his life, and become a dementia patient lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling, and his mind is empty.
He cannot recognize his relatives or colleagues, and he will not react at all when he sees news about his research results on TV.
How glorious his past was, how lonely his end was.
No wonder the old academician had thoughts of committing suicide. To be honest, if Wei Kang himself was like this, he would rather leave with dignity as soon as possible.
However, sympathy is sympathy, and the truth about research and development must be told to the other party. Sanqing cannot guarantee anything at present.
Wei Kang shook his head and looked embarrassed: "Academician Qi, our company has indeed recently established a new drug research and development team for Alzheimer's disease, but our project has just begun and there are no results yet."
Academician Qi did not look disappointed. Instead, he cheered up and said happily: "It's good that you can tell me so frankly. I know this matter cannot be rushed, but with the strength of Sanqing, there is definitely no problem. As long as the research and development of new drugs proceeds." If we keep going, there will definitely be progress.”
"Even if it's a little slower, you don't have to blame yourself. The General Administration has asked all the big pharmaceutical companies and laboratories at home and abroad, but they haven't gotten any clear answers. I'm not an expert in the pharmaceutical industry, so I can't say much, but As long as Sanqing joins in, there will definitely be hope, right?"
Wei Kang looked at Academician Qi's expectant eyes, and his heart was touched for a moment, and he said: "Academician Qi, don't worry, we will go all out. However, there is a long time from the development of new drugs to the third phase of clinical trials. Can the old man wait for a while?"
Academician Qi showed a pleased smile and nodded: "The old man said that if a new drug is developed, he is willing to be a drug tester from the beginning, and his relatives also agreed. Because the old man strongly requested this, otherwise he will do it again..."
Academician Qi didn't say anything else, but Wei Kang understood the meaning.
This old man's obsession with suspending the project is really deep. If he cannot be satisfied, the patient may completely lose his desire to live.
Wei Kang nodded and said: "Then let's give it a try. Try to get results as soon as possible."
Academician Qi extended his hand happily: "Comrade Xiaowei, I saw you right. I believe you will not let the country down."
“There are now dozens of clinical trial projects related to Alzheimer’s drugs in China, but I am most optimistic about Sanqing.”
Wei Kang smiled shyly, and with a thought in his mind, he tried to ask: "The green sunshine trehalose capsule is said to be used to treat Alzheimer's disease. Has the old academician tried it?"
The expression on Academician Qi's face suddenly became complicated. He took a deep look at Wei Kang and shook his head.
"Hey, the water here is very deep. You may not know much about it. The developer of this drug has a profound background. He had a fight with a famous biologist on this matter, and later he also fought a reputation lawsuit. After that, he It’s over.”
"Obviously, the old academician has also tried this drug. As I said, although there are no side effects, the effect is not obvious. So I just take it as a placebo drug for the time being, which is better than nothing."
Wei Kang suddenly understood, and he changed the topic with Academician Qi and started chatting.
Later, Academician Qi proposed to see the scale and current situation of Sanqing Pharmaceutical, and Wei Kang accompanied him on his visits.
Academician Qi paid a visit to the laboratories and factories and was very satisfied with the new atmosphere presented by Sanqing. He especially praised the employee welfare.
At noon, Academician Qi also had lunch in the canteen of Sanqing. The plate was simple with two meat and two vegetables, but it tasted very good. He was full of praise for the meal.
In the afternoon, when Academician Qi left, he held Wei Kang's right hand tightly with his skinny hands and sighed: "They all say that the welfare of Sanqing is good and Mr. Wei is generous. I only know after visiting today that seeing is believing. To be honest, the truth is better than what they say."
"With such a working atmosphere and such employee benefits, how can everyone not work to the best of their ability, especially the R&D staff here? The expressions on everyone's faces are very happy. Although they are all in a hurry, they look... It’s very busy, but there’s no pressing or depressing atmosphere. I think everyone is happy working here.”
"I haven't seen such a research and development atmosphere for a long time, and I was really touched when I saw it today. Now I believe even more that Sanqing has the ability to develop new drugs for Alzheimer's disease."
He patted Wei Kang on the shoulder and said sincerely: "Xiao Wei, I'm waiting for your good news."
