Chapter 180: Kindness is a choice
"She's so special and so cool. I love her."
"I met him through a friend." Gu Xixing answered calmly while driving.
"Oh, then why didn't you go over and say hello when you saw him just now?"
"I don't want to disturb her." The figure flashed through Gu Xixing's mind, and his eyes became gentle unconsciously.
"Do you have her WeChat? I want to add her. I declare that I am a die-hard fan of Miss Dionysus. No, I like her not because she can drink, but because she is so smart. Haha, she is simply a role model for my generation."
“No WeChat.”
"Tsk...then what kind of friends are we?"
It was not surprising that Gu Xixing won against Tu Ran.
She has been proficient in traditional Chinese medicine since she was a child. Let alone alcohol, most poisons probably have no effect on her.
These traditional Chinese medicine traditions are far more powerful than ordinary people imagine.
It’s just that society is now controlled by capital, and the truth will not be told to most people.
The car slowly drove into the villa area. Before getting out of the car, Gu Xixing received a call from the company.
"Boss Gu, something bad has happened to the person testing the medicine."
Gu Xixing's heart skipped a beat. After putting Gu Huan down, he hurried to the company.
"What's going on?" Gu Xixing asked as soon as he entered the company.
"Mr. Gu, this time, Miss Wu Yue brought in a test product. We synthesized it to replace OL12 and gave it to seven people for testing. Three of them are now experiencing serious side effects."
"What are the side effects?"
"It's just... severe angina pain. The test results from the hospital showed heart failure."
Gu Xixing was shocked, "Heart failure?"
"Yes, the preliminary diagnosis is that it's a drug trial, causing the body to reject the product, which is also a manifestation of poisoning. This toxin can cause heart failure. The patient is now on IUC. The doctor said his life is in danger. The family hasn't made a fuss, knowing that they signed a contract and will receive compensation."
Gu Xixing remained silent.
"What should we do now, Mr. Gu?"
"I've issued a notice to postpone the release of new products. Since there are problems, they cannot be released."
"good."
"Those three people who tested the drug..."
"How much funeral expenses do you think is appropriate?" the assistant asked cautiously.
"Why should I pay for funeral expenses? He's not dead yet, is he?"
“But the doctor said….”
"Leave it to me, I'll find the antidote."
After saying that, Gu Xixing turned around and left the company.
The sudden incident at Chengtian Pharmaceutical was completely unexpected.
Although Gu Xixing knew that this thing was definitely not developed by Wu Yue.
But after repeated testing by their R&D team, it is indeed effective for new products.
As to whether it is suitable for large-scale production, it must be approved by drug testers.
Those who test drugs usually have underlying diseases.
Only people from extremely poor families would be willing to test the medicine on themselves.
Pharmaceutical companies will pay compensation based on the effectiveness of the medicine, which is usually much higher than outside.
This time, after the synthesis of the OL12 substitute drug, Chengtian Pharmaceuticals paid each tester a remuneration of 150,000 yuan.
This is already a huge sum of money for an ordinary family.
Therefore, many people rushed to grab this opportunity.
In the end, seven people were selected, but unexpectedly, three of them began to have serious reactions not long after the drug trial.
Gu Xixing drove directly to Principal Wu's house.
Although it was not good to disturb the teacher in the middle of the night, the teacher was indeed the person he trusted the most.
After Gu Xixing briefly explained the matter to the teacher, Principal Wu remained silent.
He adjusted the frame of his glasses, "So, how come you believe what Yueyue researched? You don't even know her personality?"
"I know it wasn't developed by her, it was developed by a master in the team."
"I have had this alternative drug looked at by several professionals, and they all said it's fine."
"But I didn't know it would have such a serious side effect on the heart."
"We don't know exactly which link has the problem," said Gu Xixing.
"So what you're asking for now is..." Principal Wu said halfway and looked at the students.
"My request is to find a way to detoxify the three drug testers who got into trouble."
"After all, those are three lives."
"Right now, there's something wrong with this thing. I'm going to delay the launch no matter how big the loss is."
"But right now, those three people are still in the ICU, and they're showing signs of severe heart poisoning."
"I wonder if I could ask the teacher to recommend some experts who can solve this problem."
To be honest, Principal Wu was very surprised when Gu Xixing said these words.
The Gu family has been in the pharmaceutical business for generations, and Gu Xixing is a businessman.
If she came to him at this critical moment in order to continue looking for a drug that could replace OL12, it would be understandable.
But he was actually anxious to detoxify the three people who were testing the medicine?
In fact, those who test drugs all have underlying diseases, and they sign a risk agreement every time they test a drug.
Even if someone dies as a result of drug trials, it will not have much to do with the pharmaceutical company.
This is something that both parties agree on. At most, the pharmaceutical company will lose some money, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it.
At the moment, it is obvious that detoxification is much more difficult than solving the problem of finding a substitute for OL12.
"Xixing, I really didn't expect that."
"You say." Gu Xixing looked at the teacher respectfully.
Principal Wu picked up the water cup and held it in his palm. "I really didn't expect that after all your years in business, as a qualified businessman, you would show such a kind side."
Gu Xixing just smiled complicatedly, "Teacher, my grandfather once said that kindness is not a nature, but a choice."
"Well said, kindness is a choice." Principal Wu nodded in approval.
"Those three people have families too, and their lives are only once, and they're incredibly precious. For me, a delayed product launch is just a small loss of money, and I don't need those things myself. But if those three people die as a result, their families will lose their loved ones forever."
"I know detoxification is difficult."
"Because these products are all new, they haven't been clinically tested or repeatedly verified."
"But I'm still willing to give it a try."
"At least I'm going to try to save them."
"Otherwise, I would feel uneasy."
"Okay, I understand. I'll make a few calls."
Principal Wu admires the students' vision, perspective and kindness.
Without saying anything, he called several leading figures in the field of traditional Chinese medicine in the middle of the night.
Everyone was still asleep and agreed vaguely.
One of them spoke the truth directly after hearing this, "Old Wu, tell Xiao Gu, it's impossible."
"Heart damage is irreversible. Those people are now suffering from heart failure, and coupled with their pre-existing conditions, there's no way they'll survive. Even if they're on a ventilator, they won't live long. Let's not waste time. Why not... prepare some compensation for the families so they can properly arrange their funeral arrangements?"
Principal Wu did not dare to hide anything and told everything in detail.
Gu Xixing nodded, said goodbye to his teacher, and left the Wu family.
“Cherish your journey and do your best,” Principal Wu advised.
Gu Xixing nodded, "I know, Teacher, I'm sorry to bother you, go and have some rest."
At this time, Tu Ran was still asleep, and she even had a strange dream.
"I'm dying of thirst, please save me."
"Only you can save me."
“Save me…”
A strange-looking old man with a beard was lying in the dry desert, reaching out to Tu Ran.
"Little girl, save me."
Tu Ran suddenly woke up...
