Chapter 617: Breakthrough from 0 to 1
Close your eyes and open them again, and it's a new day.
Xiaoxue is going to take the high-speed train home with her father and brother today, and she will have dumplings stuffed with green onions and beef for breakfast.
Xiaoxue pouted.
"The airport is so far away, and you all sent Zeng Yan there, but this morning you only sent me to the subway entrance."
"Am I still your dearest niece?"
Yu Zhiming glared at the little guy.
"We took the subway directly to the high-speed rail station. We're all college students, how could we get lost?"
Xiaoxue snorted, "It's not the lack of wealth that's worrying, but the inequality!"
Yu Zhiming was about to criticize her when his fourth sister interrupted him, saying, "You've spoiled her like that!"
Yu Xiangwan looked at Xiaoxue again and said, "Alright, alright, stop pouting like a child. Hurry up and eat. I'll drive you to the high-speed rail station later."
Xiaoxue immediately changed her expression and started eating with a happy smile.
Yu Zhiming was speechless.
So childish.
Qing Ning suppressed a smile and handed the peeled boiled egg to Yu Zhiming, saying softly, "The piano shipped from my hometown arrived this morning. I asked Zhou Mo to help take care of it."
Yu Zhiming said, "Move the clothes, shoes, and bags that are at your eldest brother's house as soon as possible."
Gu Qingning hummed.
Yu Xiangwan asked, "Lao Wu, did you and Qing Ning move the things here before the New Year?"
"Or should we wait until after the New Year and come back to move?"
this……
Yu Zhiming thought for a moment and said, "Let's move before the New Year. We can't put off all the work until after the New Year."
"It's not a lot anyway."
Yu Xiangwan chuckled and said, "There's quite a lot of stuff. I don't think even two cars can move it all in one trip."
"Buy some cardboard boxes today and pack your things first."
Qing Ning chuckled and said, "Ning'an Hospital should have quite a few cardboard boxes. I'll pick some up today..."
At 7:30 in the morning, after everyone had breakfast, Xiaoxue changed her mind again.
"Uncle, you should just drop me off at the subway station. There's no need for me to take you to the high-speed rail station."
Yu Zhiming raised his eyebrows, and then heard the little fellow chuckle again: "I just want you to have an attitude."
"You love and care for me, so naturally I have to be well-behaved and cute so that you don't have to worry about me."
Yu Zhiming raised his hand and tapped the guy on the forehead.
"Pick up your luggage and go."
Xiaoxue's luggage had already been packed: a suitcase and a backpack filled with food and drinks...
Qing Ning drove the stretcher, turned a small corner, dropped Xiao Xue off at the subway station entrance four or five stops away, and then drove Yu to Mingchao Ning'an Hospital.
On the way, Yu Zhiming received a call from Hua Sifan.
"Doctor Yu, I will have a new round of discussions with Doctor Xie today, and it is very likely that we will reach an agreement on the specific terms of cooperation."
"Part of our cooperation involves your rights, Doctor Yu. Do you have time to come and discuss it?"
Yu Zhiming chuckled and replied, "Mr. Hua, I have to go to Ning'an Hospital today to assist with a very important operation, so I can't leave."
"How about this, after you finish your discussion, just let me take a look at the clauses that affect my rights."
"I believe in Mr. Hua's character and he won't let me suffer any loss."
Hua Sifan replied on the call: "Doctor Yu, this is not the first time we have worked together, and it will not be the last."
"Please rest assured, I won't let my own people suffer..."
After ending the call with Hua Sifan, Qingning's voice rang in Yu Zhiming's ears.
"Zhiming, there will definitely be more and more similar business collaborations in the future. Others won't be as loyal as President Hua."
"It is necessary to hire a private lawyer and a business assistant to assist you in business cooperation and investment matters."
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "Zhou Mo seems to be studying business administration?"
Qing Ning rolled her eyes and said, "I majored in business economics in college."
"People like Momo and I, who have no experience and no practice, are like lambs to be slaughtered when it comes to negotiating a business deal. We're the kind of people who would happily count the money even after being sold."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "I usually think that you and Zhou Mo are both very smart and handle things in an orderly manner."
Qing Ning sighed as he drove, "That's because we're dealing with relatively simple matters."
"I have the Gu family behind me, Momo has you and Director Qi behind her. Others won't embarrass us over trivial matters."
"But when it comes to business cooperation worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars, it's a real fight at the negotiation table."
"At that time, Momo and I, with our limited experience, were no match for those experienced players."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but say happily, "Qing Ning, you are quite clear-headed. It's rare that you don't think you can do anything."
Qing Ning snorted and said, "That's called self-knowledge."
"My grandfather said that if I can do this, with the help of my family, my future will not be too bad."
"I'm most afraid of the self-righteous second generation who can easily squander their parents' fortune."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and nodded, then added, "Neither a personal lawyer nor a business assistant are urgent matters. I will keep them in mind and slowly look for the right person..."
Time passed unknowingly during their conversation, and at nearly nine o'clock in the morning, they arrived at Ning'an Hospital.
The stretcher was parked directly in front of the inpatient building near Ning'an Lake where eleven patients with advanced cancer were staying.
Yu Zhiming got out of the car and walked into the lobby on the first floor of the building accompanied by Qing Ning. He saw Gu Qingran, Academician Zhang Yuanchao, Doctor Wang Wu, Wang Shuisu and twenty or thirty doctors from Ning'an Hospital, as well as dozens of patients coming to greet him.
He was a little confused.
The situation in front of me looks quite big.
However, this cancer treatment method has just begun, and its success or failure is still unknown.
There's no need to publicize it first, right?
Gu Qingran smiled wryly and explained, "By the time the news got out, everyone thought it was an exciting event, the beginning of the medical community finally conquering cancer."
"They gathered here spontaneously to witness this important moment in medical history."
Yu Zhiming grinned and said, "It's just another medical attempt to cure cancer. Many previous attempts by medical experts have failed to achieve a breakthrough or have not yet fully succeeded."
"So everyone, it's best not to have too high expectations, to avoid being too disappointed."
Academician Zhang said excitedly, "But this time, we all believe that this is a major endeavor with victory in sight."
"Doctor Yu, you will be responsible for clearing the solid cancerous tissue, while CAR-T cell therapy will be responsible for eliminating the free cancer cells in the patient's body. With this two-pronged approach, cancer can be cured."
Yu Zhiming had to remind him, "Academician Zhang, you're only talking about an ideal situation."
"Also, there is a very important premise..."
Seeing that everyone in front of him, including Academician Zhang, had excited expressions, Yu Zhiming stopped talking and did not continue to pour cold water on them.
An important premise he wanted to point out is that the patient's body must be strong enough so that the partial or complete removal of the cancerous organ will not affect the maintenance of life.
This premise excludes at least 70% to 80% of patients with mid- to late-stage cancer.
Not to mention, the millions of dollars in treatment costs once again exclude the vast majority of suitable patients with mid- to late-stage cancer.
Given this premise and the high cost of treatment, aren’t Academician Zhang and others aware of this?
They know what's going on.
But what they value more is that if the cancer treatment method proposed by Yu Zhiming is successful, it will achieve a breakthrough in cancer treatment in China that can be replicated and reproduced.
This is a breakthrough from 0 to 1 in the domestic medical community.
Its importance is self-evident.
As for the patients' demanding requirements and high costs, they are not a problem. What is important is to achieve it from nothing to something.
As long as we have this 1, with the wisdom and ingenuity of the Chinese people, there will be endless possibilities...
Doctor Wang Wu was extremely excited, his mustache trembling as he said to Yu Zhiming, "Ginseng Life-Sustaining Pills should be used to save lives, not prolong them."
"Doctor Yu, as far as I know, you have never failed before, and you will definitely succeed this time too."
"Thanks for your good wishes, Doctor Wang."
Yu Zhiming said a polite word, and then, as everyone watched, he took the elevator to the ninth floor, accompanied by Meng Fan's attending physician, Dr. Teng Jian, chief physician of the oncology department.
In the spacious and quiet ward, Yu Zhiming saw Meng Fan, a man of medium height and slightly thin, and his family.
Yu Zhiming could see the bloodshot in the patient's eyes, the undisguised excitement and nervousness on his face.
"Didn't sleep all night?"
Meng Fan nodded slightly and said, "About that, I was only in a daze for an hour or two at most."
"Suddenly, great hope and great danger coexisted. I was so excited that I couldn't sleep."
Yu Zhiming said slowly: "Mr. Meng, given your physical condition, I can't say how long it will take, but you should be able to hold on for a year."
"You should also understand that my cancer treatment plan only has a theoretical chance of success. I can't give you any guarantees."
Meng Fan chuckled and said, "Doctor Yu, I know!"
"Yesterday, Academician Zhang and Vice President Gu explained to me in detail the severity and risks."
"They told me bluntly that the chances of cancer being cured were only 10% to 20%. Even if the cancer wasn't cured, the chances of me surviving the treatment were only 30% to 40%."
"But I'm willing to take a gamble."
Meng Fan met Yu Zhiming's gaze, smiled, and said, "My confidence comes from you, Doctor Yu."
"You've only been in Binhai Development for over half a year, but you've repeatedly done amazing things and saved countless lives."
After a pause, Meng Fan said solemnly, "To be honest with you, Doctor Yu, I have become quite wealthy now."
"Many people believe that my success comes from ability, hard work and some luck."
"But I know in my heart that it's mainly because I found the right people and the right partners."
"I first look at the person. The prerequisite for cooperation is that the other person is a good person and trustworthy."
Meng Fan let out a long breath and said, "Doctor Yu, you are a responsible and caring doctor."
"Although the treatment plan you proposed is dangerous, it must be reliable and feasible."
"So, Dr. Yu, I'm willing to gamble my life."
These words made Yu Zhiming feel extremely pressured.
But now that things have come to this, we can only move forward.
He took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Meng, thank you for your trust. I can only say that I will do my best."
"Let's get started..."
Next, Yu Zhiming spent nearly half an hour giving Meng Fan three thorough examinations from head to toe.
After completing the inspection, Yu Zhiming stopped and stood up.
"No new metastatic cancers were found, and the lung and liver tumors showed no further deterioration."
"Surgery is possible..."
