The speed of the convoy was very fast, and it whizzed past the two of them in the blink of an eye. It looked like it was preparing to go to the research institute on the west slope!
When Zhou Yang saw the Beijing license plates hanging on these cars, he was secretly surprised.
Could it be that someone from the equipment department came to deliver equipment to them?
No, Gu Chenghua has just set off and won't arrive in the capital until the afternoon at the earliest. There can't be such a fast response there!
However, just as Zhou Yang was deep in thought, the jeep in the middle of the convoy suddenly jumped out from the middle of the convoy and then stopped in the middle of the gravel road.
Then, the car door opened, and a middle-aged man in a green military uniform stepped out.
After the middle-aged soldier got out of the car, he walked directly towards Zhou Yang and Liu Yunlong.
Only then did Zhou Yang see clearly that the person who got out of the car was Director Zhang of the Liuyan Research Institute.
After seeing him, Zhou Yang understood that this team was not from the Equipment Department, but from the Ministry of Health.
When Director Zhang came to Zhou Yang, he immediately said with a smile: "Comrade Zhou Yang, what a coincidence, I was just saying that I would look for you later!"
"Director Zhang, are you going to the laboratory?"
"Yes! The Ministry of Health said that your vaccine research and development has made breakthrough progress, and clinical trials will be conducted next, so let us come and find out."
"You are so hot-tempered, are you just here to get to know me?" Zhou Yang asked with a smile.
"Of course not. What Vice Minister Wang means is that if the vaccine developed here can really be used for clinical trials, then the team will be temporarily brought back to the capital to complete the clinical trials as soon as possible." Director Zhang said.
"Oh, Mr. Liu told me about this before. I didn't expect you to come so quickly!"
"Haha, there is no other way. We are about to enter the peak period of hemorrhagic fever. Time waits for no one!"
"Well, let's go to the research institute and talk about it together!" Zhou Yang said.
"Okay, let's get in the car!"
"good!"
Afterwards, Zhou Yang and Liu Yunlong got into Director Zhang's car together and went straight to the medical laboratory.
Soon, the car arrived at the laboratory.
After strict inspection and registration by the security forces, the convoy drove into the biological laboratory.
The sudden arrival of the convoy immediately alerted Song Shi, Yang Chunhua, Duan Yinzhong and others in the laboratory, and several people came out to check.
When they found out that Zhou Yang, Director Zhang and others were coming, several people in charge of the laboratory immediately came out to greet them.
After a brief exchange of greetings, everyone came to the small conference room.
After briefly warming up, Zhou Yang said again: "Director Zhang and the others came here today mainly because they were appointed by the superior department to check the progress of our vaccine research and development. Professor Song, on behalf of our laboratory, you will report to Director Zhang Would you like to report the results?"
Hearing Zhou Yang's roll call, Song Shi was not frightened and said directly: "Okay, on behalf of the laboratory, I will talk about the progress of vaccine development!"
"Currently, our vaccine team relies on the virus team to extract and isolate hemorrhagic fever virus strains, successfully cultivate attenuated virus strains that can be used for vaccine research, and on this basis, we have preliminarily developed a vaccine and completed all pre-clinical studies. step."
"The next thing to do is to conduct sufficient experiments on the clinical efficacy and safety of the vaccine to determine whether the vaccine meets the standards..."
After Song Shi's report, Director Zhang immediately said: "I want to see your relevant experimental information and data. Do you have any questions?"
After hearing Director Zhang's request, Song Shi first looked at Zhou Yang, and when he saw him nodding, he immediately said: "Okay, please wait!"
After saying that, he stood up and left the conference room.
After only a few minutes, he returned to the conference room again, but there was a thick stack of documents in his hand.
After handing these documents to Director Zhang, Song Shi returned to his seat.
After Director Zhang obtained the information, he immediately distributed the documents to the technical staff he brought along according to the corresponding categories.
Although he is relatively familiar with the research and development progress of the vaccine team, after all, Yang Chunhua of the vaccine team is from their research institute, and she will report the relevant situation to Director Zhang every once in a while.
But as the person in charge of this results inspection, the procedures must be followed.
Afterwards, Director Zhang and others carefully reviewed the experimental materials and data in the conference room.
The process is tedious and time-consuming.
While they were checking the information, Zhou Yang quietly asked Liu Yunlong to notify the kitchen to cook more food and make something better.
Although he also knew that Director Zhang and others would not deliberately embarrass them because of the food issue, and their results were not afraid of verification, but the attitude they should have should not be lost.
Director Zhang and others stared at these dry experimental data for more than two hours. At around 1 o'clock in the afternoon, they finally had enough.
Afterwards, they went to the conference room next door to communicate for more than ten minutes before returning to the small conference room.
The meeting continues!
Director Zhang coughed slightly and said: "After careful verification, we believe that your test data are not only detailed and complete, but also the experimental process can withstand scrutiny, and the results are initially determined to be valid."
"However, next we need to personally check the weak viruses and vaccines you have cultivated, and we ask for your cooperation!"
Zhou Yang immediately said: "Director Zhang, please rest assured that we will fully cooperate, but it is already past one o'clock. Should we eat first? After all, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers?"
"Hahaha, that's right, let's eat first!" Director Zhang said with a smile.
Then, led by Zhou Yang and others, Director Zhang and his team came to the small canteen on one side of the laboratory.
Since there was no preparation in advance in the canteen, even if Zhou Yang said hello temporarily, in the absence of ingredients, the chef only added a scrambled egg and cold vermicelli to the original stew. Get those meaty treats.
No way, that's it.
Meat is very difficult to preserve without a refrigerator.
In addition, there are relatively few people in the medical laboratory, so it would be impossible for a pig to be eaten by itself in a short while, so we can only share a quarter of the pig with others when we improve the food in the research institute later.
If people don’t kill pigs, they won’t have meat to eat here.
All in all, today's meal was quite shabby in comparison.
Therefore, during the meal, Director Zhang unexpectedly asked about Zhou Yang's laboratory funding.
Zhou Yang is relatively clear about the funding for the laboratory. From May to now, the Ministry of Health has allocated a total of more than 30,000 yuan to them.
Although it's not a lot, it's not that few in this day and age.
After several months of research, there are now more than 12,000 yuan left on the books.
In fact, the vast majority of the funds are not used for experimental research, but are used by the pharmaceutical team to purchase raw materials and produce atorvastatin drugs. Only one-third is used for vaccine research and development.
However, Zhou Yang, who knew that more scientific research funds would be better, did not tell the truth. Instead, he took the opportunity to cry to Director Zhang.
Director Zhang also learned through Yang Chunhua that their usual food was only average, much worse than today's lunch standard. He immediately said that he would report the situation to the Ministry of Health and ask the higher ups to allocate another batch of funds to them. .
After eating, the group returned to the laboratory and inspected the samples of virus strains extracted by Duan Yinzhong and others, and also observed in detail the weak viruses they cultivated...
After on-site inspection of the laboratory's research and development progress, Director Zhang said with a look of amazement: "Comrade Zhou Yang, it is really unimaginable that you only spent half a year to complete virus extraction, weak virus cultivation, A series of procedures such as vaccine development have gone much faster than we expected, thank you for your hard work."
"Now, your experimental results have been verified by us. According to the instructions of the superior department, the entire team will carry relevant virus specimens and vaccine samples to the capital for further clinical research!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yang nodded and said: "Our laboratory firmly supports the decision of the superior department and can organize the data and return to the capital at any time!"
"Okay, let's pack our things!"
"OK!"
However, just when Zhou Yang was busy exhorting Song Shi and others, Liu Yunlong suddenly came to him and whispered a few words in his ear.
Afterwards, Zhou Yang said hello to Director Zhang and others, and quickly left the laboratory...
