At midnight, after finishing the last line of her thesis and carefully checking that there were no problems, Song Xia still couldn't fall asleep.
However, after the paper was published in the world's most prestigious medical journal, it was other scientists, patients, and their families around the world who were also engaged in cancer research who were unable to sleep.
No one can believe that a problem that has plagued humanity for thousands of years has been solved today. However, even though the patent has been granted, many people still have doubts.
In response to the experimental results, Song Xia and his laboratory prepared to hold a press conference. This upcoming press conference attracted worldwide attention and dominated the headlines of almost every country and every network.
It's not for any other reason than that there are just too many people suffering from cancer in modern society. Even if you don't have one in your family, you've heard about it among your relatives and friends. Often, once someone in a family gets cancer, they go bankrupt trying to save that person, but in the end, they can't even keep them alive.
Now the news says that cancer has been conquered, not just one type of cancer, but new research results that are effective for most cancers, and without the need for chemotherapy. This not only increases the chances of a cure, but also costs less and reduces the suffering of patients.
This achievement is undoubtedly a boon to all mankind; how can we not be excited and take notice?
Especially in China, although China has made significant progress in science and technology in recent years, it has always lagged behind in drug research. Now that Chinese scientists have developed a drug to conquer cancer, how can we not be proud?
Before the press conference even started, there was a lot of discussion online: "Am I really dreaming? The world's most difficult cancer cell disease has actually been conquered by Chinese scientists?"
"The patent has already been applied for, so it shouldn't be fake."
"God knows how upset I was when I saw this news. My dad was just diagnosed with late-stage stomach cancer last month. Are medications effective for late-stage patients? Which hospitals can treat him now?"
"Can I say that my mother was a volunteer in the drug trial? Last year, my mother was diagnosed with late-stage pancreatic cancer. At that time, the doctors said there was no cure. Later, they recommended that the laboratory let us sign up to try. We thought that we had no other choice, so we let my mother participate in the drug trial. Unexpectedly, my mother's condition improved significantly in just one month. She has now been discharged from the hospital and is eating and drinking normally. I am really grateful to Professor Song."
"Really? Pancreatic cancer can be cured in its late stages?"
"I can attest to its truth. My uncle was also a volunteer. He had late-stage lung cancer, but now he's farming and is in better health than many young people. This medicine was developed by Professor Song. If you don't know Professor Song, you can look up his resume."
After the news broke, not only the two of them, but also many patients came forward to personally confirm Song Xia and her research results. The internet was buzzing with excitement. No one needed to search for it, because that very evening, Song Xia's life story was reported in the national media.
If a news story makes it onto national media, it's practically a done deal, which puts countless patients and their families at ease for the time being.
"If I'm not mistaken, Professor Song is only thirty this year?"
"I just got hit by my mom. Other people are already professors at thirty, conquering the human health problem of cancer cells. I'm still in Makka Pakka at thirty."
"But at thirty, and still a professor, wouldn't it be very difficult to get married? Even if you get married now, wouldn't you be considered an advanced maternal age mother?"
"Has something weird gotten into the comments section? How could someone as great as Professor Song be criticized for his age?"
"You can't see her contributions, but you're quick to comment on her age. What's wrong with a thirty-year-old woman in this world?"
"Ignore these people with abnormal thought processes, they're just showing off."
"If I'm not mistaken, is Professor Song the older sister of the popular young actress Song Jiao?"
"Jiaojiao's fans silently raised their hands. They were afraid to admit it, fearing they would be accused of trying to ride on her popularity, but she is indeed her older sister."
"What kind of genes does this family have? And how can they be so extreme? One is shining brightly in the scientific research field, and the other is dazzling in the entertainment industry. These are two completely unrelated industries, okay?"
"Everyone seems to have forgotten that they also have a younger brother who was in the news many years ago. He was a top science student, just like Professor Song. Who knows, he might be a leader in some industry now!"
I'm tired of saying the word "look up".
"So, does that mean Song Jiao, who became incredibly famous, is actually the worst off in her family?"
"Although I'm a fan of Jiaojiao, I have to admit..."
At this moment, Song Jiao's agent, Brother Zhang, looked at the news and comments online and smiled so hard his eyes narrowed into slits. Over the past year, Song Jiao's reputation had been somewhat affected by the controversy surrounding her diva-like behavior last year. Several top endorsements had been delayed in finalizing their contracts due to the negative public opinion. However, as soon as the news of Song Jiao's cancer recovery was released, several brands called to say they wanted to sign contracts.
"Brother Zhang, the director of S just called and said that he hopes to officially announce the cooperation with Sister Jiao as soon as possible, and is willing to upgrade Sister Jiao from a global ambassador to a global spokesperson for the makeup line."
"And W company, they said they want to increase the endorsement fee by 30% and hope to renew the contract."
"In addition, a mountaineering brand also called to say that they could put Sister Jiao first among their many brand ambassadors."
"Hmm." After hearing this many times, the agent, Brother Zhang, gradually calmed down and said to his assistant and the company's business representative, "We'll listen to Sister Jiao and wait for her to come back. You guys should organize all the contracts first. Don't rush to agree to the brand's offer."
"Okay, Brother Zhang." Everyone in the company was overjoyed. They never expected that one day, without any effort, a windfall of wealth would fall on them. Sister Jiao's sister is really amazing!
That's cancer! A problem that has plagued humanity for thousands of years, and it was solved just like that by Jiao's own sister? It feels like a dream.
Upon hearing the news, Song Jiao's first reaction wasn't to be happy about the change in her resources, but rather to feel sorry for her sister, who must have suffered a lot.
On the other hand, Song Jun, who was struggling in politics and lacked connections, was invited to dinner by a leader who knew about his family's situation after Song Xia's success in overcoming cancer was exposed. After all, in today's society, who doesn't have one or two family members with illnesses? If they waited for the government to fully implement social treatment, how long would their families have to wait? Why not take advantage of the connections that were right in front of them?
But secrets don't stay hidden forever. Song Jun, who was originally isolated and targeted because of his outstanding talent but lack of connections, suddenly changed his status in the company. Just as he was about to be evaluated for performance, he quietly rose to the top of the list.
Song Jun sensed the changes around him and smiled helplessly. He had thought he could rely on himself, but in the end he still benefited from his sister's influence.
