As Yang Xu said, when the news that Star Technology was seeking cooperation with pharmaceutical companies was released, the people who sought cooperation really didn't have to worry about him, and they came to the door.

Although it is not as exaggerated as queuing up from the Institute of Computational Materials to the Institute of Physics, at least four or five phone calls a day are also annoying enough to Chen Yushan.

called Lu Zhou, and Chen Yushan couldn't help but complain as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Are you planning to switch careers to selling health supplements?"

As soon as he heard this, Lu Zhou immediately guessed what she was talking about, so he smiled embarrassedly and said.

“…… It's just that I got some by-products by chance during the experiment, and I feel quite interesting. I thought it would be a pity to waste it, so I just took it out for the benefit of the public. ”

“…… And then I was sacrificed by you? ”

Lu Zhou: "Uh, I'm sorry for your trouble. ”

Chen Yushan said helplessly: "It's okay, this is originally my job, but remember to say it in advance next time." I was still busy with the aerospace science and technology project yesterday, and suddenly a phone call came, crackling and talking a lot, and I thought it was selling health care products. ”

Lu Zhouhan said: "I'll pay attention next time." ”

"Okay, it's okay. By the way, I asked people to study a few companies that called, and listed a few of them with more suitable qualifications on the form, and I have sent them to your mailbox just now. If you have time, I suggest you take the time to take a look. ”

"Okay, I'll take a look."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhou immediately opened the mailbox and found the report sent by Chen Yushan.

I have to say that this report is very detailed, not only the market capitalization, main business, and operating conditions of each company, but also some information and data that are not easy to find are listed on the table.

After some careful selection, Lu Zhou finally chose Hengrui Pharmaceutical as a partner.

As one of the few pharmaceutical companies in China that is willing to spend huge sums of money on the research and development of new drugs, the company is controlled by Hengrui Group, a local enterprise in Jiangsu Province, and has the largest R&D and production base of anti-tumor drugs in China, and is also involved in the research and development of diabetes, heart disease and cancer drugs.

In fact, in addition to Hengrui Pharmaceutical, there are many good foreign biopharmaceutical companies, which are also quite suitable partners for cooperation, such as Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, Roche and so on in the world's top 100.

However, most of the R&D units of these companies are located overseas, and Lu Zhou cautiously ruled out these olive branches thrown from overseas in view of the possible risks brought by the policy.

As for why he chose Hengrui Pharmaceutical, Lu Zhou mainly took a fancy to them having their own R&D team. In the future, Jinling Institute for Advanced Study will gradually enter the field of biochemistry, and there will be many opportunities for cooperation between the two sides in the future.

The specific cooperation agreement is negotiated by a special patent management team, and the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study is only responsible for sending the samples of registered patents to the other party.

After waiting quietly for more than ten days, just when Lu Zhou was so busy that he almost forgot about it, someone suddenly came from Hengrui Pharmaceutical......

"Hello, Professor Lu! I've admired the name for a long time! ”

In the office of Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, Lu Zhou met Professor Zhang Jiafu, technical director of the new drug R&D department of Hengrui Pharmaceutical. The reason why I say that I am a professor is because in addition to working in a company, he also has a teaching position at Zheda.

After seeing Lu Zhou, Professor Zhang also stretched out his right hand from afar, and shook Lu Zhou's hand vigorously, making Lu Zhou embarrassed.

"Hello, you are Professor Zhang, please take a seat."

"You're so kind!"

After some pleasantries, Professor Zhang sat down on the sofa.

The secretary of Lu Zhou's office came over with a pot of tea and poured tea for the two of them.

Taking a sip of hot tea, Professor Zhang put down the teacup, no longer wasting time, and went straight to the point.

"To tell you the truth, we are developing a diabetes treatment drug, after reading the sample and component analysis report sent by you, I took it to the laboratory and tried it, and the results were ......," he swallowed and foamed, and continued with a complicated expression, "The effect of the clinical trial response is surprising. ”

After three years of research and development, they screened tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of compounds, and constantly tried and tested to find effective ingredients, but they did not expect that the answer they dreamed of was not screened from those countless mistakes, but was given a head start by a biochemistry research institute that is not well-known in the field of medicine, and was even established less than a year ago.

This drop ......

It's a bit hard to accept.

However, after hearing this, the expression on Lu Zhou's face was even more shocked than him.

"This thing cures diabetes???"

Hold the grass!

The Nobel Prize beckons to him again?

However, after hearing Lu Zhou's words, Professor Zhang's expression was a little embarrassed, and he coughed lightly and said.

“…… Of course, treatment is impossible, and if there is such a miracle, the Nobel Prize Committee will definitely consider you again. However, although it is not treatable, we have found that this amino acid has a very high synergistic effect with insulin and insulin analogues, which can accelerate glycolysis and reduce blood sugar concentrations. ”

"Later, we conducted experiments in diabetic mice, and found that this amino acid has the effect of directly fighting the damage of pancreatic islet β cells, maintaining its structural integrity and endocrine function, and can also effectively inhibit the apoptosis of pancreatic β cells induced by streptozotocin."

After listening to Professor Zhang's words, Lu Zhou's expression gradually became serious.

Streptozotocin, abbreviated as STZ, is on the International Health Organization's list of group 2B carcinogens. However, the most terrifying thing about him is not that it causes cancer, but that it can induce diabetes in a variety of organisms, and it is also the culprit of many diabetic patients.

Professor Zhang said in a serious tone: "We plan to use this amino acid in the latest research and development of new drugs, can you tell us how you plan to name this special amino acid?" ”

"Name?" Lu Zhou was slightly stunned, and subconsciously said, "Isn't it okay to use numbers or chemical formulas directly?" ”

Professor Zhang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Haven't you figured out how to name it?" ”

Lu Zhou's expression was a little subtle and said, "...... I haven't thought about this yet. ”

In that composition analysis report, Xu Wenhao directly used the name of this unknown amino acid instead of the letter number, so Lu Zhoutu saved trouble and simply replaced it with the letter number.

Professor Zhang reminded him: "Generally speaking, if you really don't know how to name it, you can name it if you extract it from there, and it's more convenient to have a name." ”

As soon as he heard this, Lu Zhou's expression became even more subtle.

What's going on?

The coke he extracted can't be called coline, right?

Hey?

Wait a minute...... There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the name.

Lu Zhou opened his mouth and said, "It's called co-line!" ”

"Cosine?" Professor Zhang was stunned, "This...... Any allusions? ”

Lu Zhou: "No allusions...... Can't you? ”

Professor Zhang Khan said: "It's not that it can't. ”

Just by hearing the name, the hell knows what this thing is.

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "That's it, I think this name is good, so it's good to call it this." ”

Professor Zhang opened his mouth, and wanted to persuade Lu Zhou to take a serious name, but seeing that he had no intention of changing his mind, he had to shake his head and had no choice but to give up.

After coming out of the office, Professor Zhang looked at the researcher who had brought him here earlier and asked with a strange expression.

"Are you Professor Lu...... Have a special taste for naming names? ”

He originally wanted to say something strange, but he felt that the word was a bit disrespectful, so he changed his words.

Hearing Professor Zhang's words, the researcher walking next to him smiled shyly.

“…… Just get used to it. ”

Prof. Zhang: "......"
