Chapter 91 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack
For some reason, even though it was just an ordinary sentence, Lin Wei could see a hint of smugness in it.
She's taking medicine seriously. His paper is genuinely useful; why can't she read it? She'll publish her own paper someday that's useful to him, and she's sure he'll read it then.
So she glanced at his message and replied with a period.
The "." can be seen as an admission of this.
In Country M, Chi Boyan raised an eyebrow upon seeing the period, surprised that she would read his paper. However, he still replied, "I have some ideas, you're also researching it?" Here, "it" obviously refers to regenerative ability.
How to use it is indeed a question.
Upon seeing this, Lin Wei's eyes lit up, and she took the lead in expressing her sincerity: "Theoretically, it is feasible to use it to make medicine, but it cannot achieve immediate wound repair. If you want to achieve a very good effect, you need a sufficient number of X cells."
"However, a person does not have many X cells in their body. Extracting too many X cells would obviously be harmful to the human body, which means that the drug cannot be mass-produced."
This is exactly what Chi Boyan thought. The problem lies here. Another issue is the extraction and storage technology. "Once the X cells are extracted, conventional storage methods cannot preserve them. They die within a day of leaving the human body. I haven't found a way to store them yet."
"However, if we can find it, we can try cell culture and differentiation. But I feel the chances are not very high. Even if we can culture them, the effect will not be as strong as the X cells that exist in the human body. So it is possible to make a few bottles of emergency medicine occasionally, but mass production is impossible."
Lin Wei had actually anticipated this, so was the plan still to monopolize the technology?
It's easy to imagine that once this technology is leaked, countless people will search for people in large numbers to extract X cells in pursuit of the so-called regenerative abilities. There might even be a buying and selling of X cells, and she naturally doesn't want to see that happen.
Although Chi Boyan hadn't yet found a way to store the data, he did have a plan. Hearing him explain his idea, Lin Wei was surprised. "You just said that?" Wasn't he afraid she'd use his plan for something?
Chi Boyan: "I came up with this idea based on the information you gave me, so it's fine if you took it." It just might affect some perceptions. Besides, he doesn't think she's that kind of person.
Lin Wei blinked after seeing this. She had been thinking about who to cooperate with, but now she had decided on him.
She paused for a moment and said, "In fact, your line of thinking is correct. I have researched it, and the method of storing X cells is indeed like this, so you don't need to waste your time on this kind of thing."
Chi Boyan's eyes widened in surprise. "You've already experimented with it?"
"Hmm." Otherwise, how could she dare to give him a definite answer? If she hadn't given him that information that stumped him, Lin Wei would probably be seeking cooperation from Elder Wei by now, but now she can only turn to him.
“Chi Boyan, let’s collaborate. I’ll bring in investment and provide some insights, and you’ll handle the experiments.” No one knows X cells better than him, not to mention he’s been studying that data for quite some time. Someone else might not know as quickly or as much as he does.
Now that she's in the hospital, she really doesn't have time for these things; he should be more free abroad.
Seeing this, Chi Boyan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but there's no need to raise investment. I still have some funds at my disposal, plus a usable laboratory, so it won't cost much."
"The main purpose is to test the waters and see if cell culture and differentiation can be successful. If it is successful, there will be no need to raise investment. Once the news gets out, there will naturally be many investors. Then we can discuss other things."
Lin Wei nodded in agreement, "Okay." But before parting, she still asked curiously, "When you were researching X cells, did you extract your own cells?"
Chi Boyan was speechless for a moment. "Otherwise what?" What big oaf would be willing to draw his blood? Even his parents wouldn't be willing to give him a shot because they were afraid of the pain.
So he had no choice but to stab himself.
Lin Wei laughed without ceremony, but still offered a fake consolation on the chat page, "Thank you for your hard work."
Seeing the message from Chi Boyan, "Aren't you stabbing yourself?" she thought to herself, "They're different. They have a system space. Why would she need to stab herself?"
However, you certainly can't answer like that on a chat page: "Of course."
But Chi Boyan just couldn't believe it. She seemed like someone who was afraid of pain, so how could she have such a strong sense of awareness?
Did he look down on her?
Regardless, the initial cooperation between the two has been established. Lin Wei will tell him about any progress she makes in the system space, and he will also tell her about his situation.
Putting everything else aside, cell culture and differentiation will definitely be successful. Lin Wei has already experimented with it in the lab, but the specific results will depend on the actual production.
After resolving this matter, she once again threw herself into her busy studies at the hospital.
The next target is still Tetralogy of Fallot.
This time, she even wanted to memorize where the small blood vessels were. When a poor student encounters a question they can't understand, they just have to memorize it by rote.
If you encounter individuals with vascular developmental problems, then there's nothing that can be done.
Interestingly, the next few surgeries she performed were all done at other hospitals. Aside from the first surgery performed at her own hospital, the previous one was done at the Second Hospital, and this surgery was performed at the Wuhan-Shaoxing Union Hospital.
Here she had to marvel at how extensive Director Zheng's connections were, enabling him to find so many cases of Tetralogy of Fallot in Hanshao City.
However, he was at a loss. "If you learn smarter and practice a few more cases, I'm afraid I won't be able to find patients to assess you anymore." He might even have to look for cases across provinces or cities.
The main problem is that Tetralogy of Fallot is rare, with only 3 to 6 cases per 10,000 newborns. Where can we find so many people to help her?
Because of this, Lin Wei cherished these opportunities and went through them one by one. These surgeries were obviously successful without any accidents. The last one was an accident, so sudden that no one could react to how the blood vessel ruptured.
Even after reflecting on the post-operative period, the cause remained unclear, with only a vague guess that it was related to stress. But who can guarantee the exact reason?
A few days later, Lin Wei performed many surgeries in the simulation room, finally achieving a success rate of 99 out of 100 surgeries, and even the one that failed was enough to save a life.
Once she arrived at the hospital, she went to Director Zheng to apply for the assessment.
"Are you sure?" He was no longer worried about her abilities, because she was confident when she was, and wouldn't push her luck if she wasn't, which was reassuring. In fact, he loved having a colleague like her in the hospital.
Lin Wei: "I'm sure."
Director Zheng smiled with relief. "It just so happens that there's only one surgery left in the city." That was specially reserved for her as a backup. If she hadn't brought it up today, then that surgery would have had to be used as a backup.
Fortunately, she made it in time.
Thus, the following scene unfolded at the Second Hospital of Hanshao City: a large group of people appeared at the hospital entrance, a sea of black, with the director and leaders in white coats standing guard at the door, greeting everyone with smiles.
This person came all the way from Kyoto, shouldn't we be more courteous? Besides, Director Zheng is also the director of the neighboring hospital, isn't it normal for him to come and greet us?
A group of people shook hands with each other before entering the hospital amidst the throng. Lin Wei was among them.
"Is this the doctor who will be performing surgery today?" The leader of the Second Municipal Hospital asked Lin Wei, as she was the one who had caused such a commotion.
Director Zheng smiled proudly, "Yes, I wasn't confident before, so I had her work on a few more machines. Now that she's confident, she came for the assessment." There was a hint of boasting in his tone about having trained a good apprentice.
However, he seemed to have forgotten that she was not his apprentice, but just a student who came to learn.
But nobody called that out on it.
Lin Wei nodded to the doctors from the Second Municipal Hospital, as if to say hello. In fact, she didn't need to say anything; Director Zheng could handle everything. She only had one task today: to perform surgery and complete the assessment.
So the group of people quickly arrived at the operating room that had been prepared in advance. Of course, only Director Zheng, Lin Wei, and the second assistant they brought entered the operating room, while the rest of them watched from the observation room.
"Look at how protective he is of his own. Is Lin Wei really that outstanding?" One of the city's second-level directors, who knew someone in Kyoto, asked in a low voice.
People in Kyoto said, "Don't underestimate her. She's only been in the cardiac surgery department for a little over a month, and she's already mastered the corrective surgery for congenital heart diseases other than Tetralogy of Fallot, as well as radiofrequency ablation."
"That sounds amazing, right? She also worked with Director Zheng and Director Chen Yongyuan from Sichuan Province to perform radiofrequency ablation on a patient with atrial fibrillation who had abnormally poor blood vessels and blood clotting disorders. You know, no one has ever successfully performed this surgery before."
Upon hearing this, the leaders of the Second Municipal Hospital were shocked. The first part was understandable, since they were different paths leading to the same goal. The only thing was that it was a bit surprising that they learned it in such a short time. But the latter was truly amazing.
Everyone knows how difficult that procedure is, and the fact that she was able to perform the surgery alongside Director Zheng and Director Chen is quite remarkable.
Immediately, everyone looking inside became serious. At that moment, inside the operating room, Director Zheng looked at Lin Wei and asked, "Are you ready?"
Lin Wei nodded. "Ready."
The surgery began immediately.
Because the scrub nurse was from the Second Municipal Hospital and was not familiar with their commonly used surgical instruments, it was Director Zheng who asked her to get the instruments.
The students he teaches are almost identical to him. How could he not know what kind of equipment he uses?
Lin Wei's attention was entirely focused on the surgical site. Her second and third assistants helped with the retractors, and the scalpel carefully avoided blood vessels and arteries, just as it had been done in the simulation room.
Because it's impossible to avoid bleeding completely during the procedure, she uses a blood suction device to remove blood where possible, and for large amounts of blood that can't be removed, she uses electrodes to stop the bleeding.
