Chapter 146 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack 146 ...
However, Lin smiled and said, "I have already made the instrument that can replace electrical stimulation and hyperbaric oxygen therapy."
A look of surprise flashed across Chi Boyan's eyes. "When did this happen? There was no word of it."
Lin Wei: "This happened within the last month, and it only really happened recently. I have already started clinical trials. But I am 100% certain that it is more effective at waking patients than traditional methods."
"Only one unit has been produced so far. I have asked someone to continue to follow up, and I estimate that another batch of treatment pods will be produced a little over next month."
Yes, she took Zhang Mo's words to heart, so Sheng Wenwei and the others didn't leave, but stayed to help her handle various matters related to her startup company.
She only asked one thing: if the performance wasn't up to par, it could be reprocessed, but safety had to be prioritized. To ensure the clinical trials could proceed smoothly, she didn't ask them to build many units, only three hundred.
Ultimately, making money is secondary; the main goal is to prove that the machine does indeed have the ability to promote wakefulness, so that we can resell it without losing money.
Lin Wei continued, "If it's successfully manufactured, I'll send you one."
Chi Boyan nodded in agreement. "Okay, I'll have that Y country guy send someone to Huaguo to pick it up. As for the price, it's normal for the first treatment pod to be a bit more expensive." He was definitely going to rip him off. After all, he'd made Chi Boyan very unhappy by having his bodyguard point a gun at him.
Lin Wei: "Well, you can decide for yourself on that." Anyway, he only knows how to ask for an exorbitant amount, and she is indeed not as good as him in that respect.
However, when she later learned that he had helped her sell that intensive care unit for ten million, Lin Wei was still surprised. She thought that the surgical machines were only worth a little over ten million, and that a device for treating vegetative patients was so expensive. She had only thought that selling it for a few million would be enough, but she did not expect him to be even more ruthless than her.
"Aren't you afraid that person from country Y will hold a grudge against you?"
Hearing her words, Chi Boyan recalled his earlier threat and smiled, saying, "Compared to this money, his daughter is obviously more important." What is ten million if it can save his daughter?
Even knowing that the treatment pod wasn't worth ten million, he would still pay for it, because if he didn't cure his daughter, he would take his life.
However, Chi Boyan's life was not so easy to take. His gaze fell on his latest drug development, and a fanaticism flashed in his eyes.
One is a volatile neurotoxin. Just a tiny amount is enough to render everyone within a ten-meter radius unconscious. Another one is still under development; he wants to create a virus that can remain dormant in the human body, but will then erupt uncontrollably once the body dies. This is his backup plan.
However, as his phone beeped with a message, the fervor in his eyes gradually faded.
"Even so, we still need to be careful." After looking at the message Lin Wei sent him for a while, he replied, "Okay."
On the one hand, he was curious to know if she could cure the virus if it was successfully created; on the other hand, he didn't want to see them become enemies.
After looking at the message for a while, Chi Boyan gave up. He decided to just try to survive.
Meanwhile, in the Flower Kingdom, the volunteers recruited last time have already awakened and been discharged from the hospital, after 28 days. As the number of intensive care units produced increases, so does the number of clinical trials, with almost all patients awakening within a month, and very few exceeding two months.
This undoubtedly provides a breakthrough for waking up patients in a vegetative state.
"As expected, it was Lin Wei who made her move again. First it was the tumor, then the antiviral drugs, and then the waking up from a vegetative state. What else is there that we don't know about her?"
"It's truly a great blessing that someone like this exists in our country."
"But I heard that they are also researching the awakening of vegetative patients abroad? And there has been a successful case, which I heard was achieved through nerve cell transplantation."
"You wouldn't know this, but the healing pod he used to promote awakening was made by Lin Wei. Speaking of which, these two know each other; they even participated in the same national biology competition in high school."
"I suspect they are working together on a method to awaken vegetative patients."
In Country M, Doyle Saxon looked at the young, flower-loving man in front of him and said, "This person is the creator of the sanatorium? You tricked me because of her." He was referring to the sanatorium that cost 500,000 to sell to him for 10 million.
Chi Boyan: "Mr. Doyle is joking. Is your love for your daughter less than ten million? Besides, that intensive care unit was specifically designed to help your daughter wake up, so ten million is a very reasonable price." This is hardly a rip-off. He should thank Lin Wei for creating the intensive care unit; otherwise, his daughter wouldn't have been able to wake up.
Doyle-Saxon didn't dwell on the matter. "I heard you've already revived a patient. When can you perform the surgery on my daughter?"
Chi Boyan: "Let's talk about it when the nerve transplant surgery is ready." It hasn't been a year yet, and Doyle Saxon was able to tolerate him even before he showed the ability to save his daughter. Now that he knows there's a chance he can wake his daughter up, this attitude is nothing.
"I hope you can really do it in a few months."
After saying that, Doyle-Saxon turned and left, but the next second he collapsed weakly. Don't misunderstand, this wasn't a nerve anesthetic, just a drug that made people feel weak, probably a muscle paralysis drug.
Doyle Saxon looked at his bodyguards, who were all in the same state as him, and glared at Chi Boyan. "What have you done? I'm warning you, if anything happens to me, you won't get away with it either." No one can remain calm when they are unarmed.
Chi Boyan looked down at the old man, who had lost his usual composure, and smiled, saying, "Don't be nervous, Mr. Doyle. I just want to tell you that your threats have no effect on me. Compared to these threats, your money is more attractive."
"Guess how many viruses we clinical practitioners and biologists carry? I've been researching AIDS lately, so getting an HIV sample isn't difficult. I also did some research on the Devil virus, which has been spreading rapidly recently. Do you think it's gotten stronger or weaker now? And lately I've been wondering if the apocalyptic world in science fiction exists, but I think this world is still quite wonderful, isn't it?"
With each word, Doyle Saxon's face grew even uglier. How could he possibly think this young man from the Flower Country was easy to manipulate?
Seeing his tense face, as if he were afraid that he would kill him, Chi Boyan said easily, "Don't worry, this drug is just a muscle paralysis drug that I just developed. The effect will wear off in half an hour and you will return to normal."
"I just hope Mr. Doyle can be a little friendlier. I'm a good person and I like talking to polite people." Chi Boyan said this and left, as if this whole thing was just to remind him.
Half an hour later, Doyle Saxon and his bodyguards stood up, their faces all looking rather grim.
“Mr. Doyle, should we…” The bodyguard made a decapitation gesture.
Doyle Saxon waved his hand. "No need. There's no point in arguing with a madman." He knew that even if he were to take action, it would be a one-hit kill. With this kind of person, either they would be killed in one fell swoop, or they would be the ones who died.
Sure enough, people who work in biology are either geniuses or madmen.
With his wealth, how could he possibly gamble on whether Chi Boyan has the virus? He had investigated Lin Wei; her ability to develop Angel-13 and suppress the Devil virus was enough to demonstrate her strength. And how could someone who scored full marks in the national competition like her be completely incompetent?
Because he felt that Chi Boyan was unreliable, Doyle Saxon began to have someone contact Lin Wei.
"Dr. Lin, we would like to invite you to go to M country to treat our young lady, is that alright?" Compared to the uncontrollable Chi Boyan, she is obviously more reliable, having saved the country of flowers many times.
However, Lin Wei refused immediately after seeing the message, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with foreign countries and I don't want to go abroad."
"If you're referring to Eleanor's matter, I'm afraid I can't help you. I don't have much research on neural transplantation, and I'm not as knowledgeable as him in that regard." Here, "him" obviously refers to Chi Boyan.
She'd been busy researching the treatment pods lately, so naturally she hadn't had time to study much else. Besides, he had someone to provide nerve cell transplant donors, while she didn't, so she'd never even considered nerves or nerve cell transplants. Let alone going abroad.
If she wanted to go abroad, she wouldn't have let Chi Boyan handle this matter.
Doyle Saxon contacted him personally, saying, "But I heard that you've recently been researching methods to awaken people in a vegetative state."
Lin Wei nodded and admitted, "Yes, but there's no sign of it yet." Even if there were signs, she couldn't say anything. She couldn't very well tell him to handle the matter while secretly plotting against him, could she?
But what exactly did he do to drive someone to her like this? Lin Wei was also a little curious, so she sent him a message to ask.
Chi Boyan: "It's nothing, I was just joking with him, but it seems he took it seriously." How could he possibly carry those drugs and viruses on his person? I was just trying to scare him, but those samples are real.
