Since the inception of the Very Early Stage Cancer Program, it has been slowly but steadily advancing.

In the beginning, only zero to one very early cancer patients were detected from 50 volunteers.

After a while, it stabilized at one or two people.

After more than half a year of development, it has now reached the level of 50 people detected by 56 people.

This speed of research and development is really not slow. According to this trend, in two or three years, it will reach the level of 50 people and 15 people, which is enough to generalize.

However, Yu Zhi knew that scientific research would not develop so regularly, and it was possible that it would advance to a certain extent, and it would fall into a bottleneck in research and development, and it would not be possible to break through for several years.

Another possibility is that under the accumulation of data, a spark of wisdom has popped up and a major breakthrough has been achieved in one fell swoop.

For Yu Zhiming, of course, it is fantasy and expectation that one day there will be a leap forward and a qualitative improvement.

After all, repetitive work over and over again will always create some boredom.

Although Yu Zhiming looked forward to the arrival of the breakthrough from time to time, he didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly.

It's a dream come true, but that's it.

Yu Zhiming watched the people in the corridor hug each other excitedly, jumping and shouting, and he didn't feel noisy at all.

He walked through the crowd in the hallway, occasionally high-fives or a warm hug to the excited R&D team members.

After celebrating together for a while, Yu Zhiming, Teacher Qi Yue, Academician Tan, Academician Zhang, and Gu Qingran came to the soundproof office.

After sitting on the sofa in the reception area, Academician Tan, who was still excited, said loudly: "Doctor Yu, you just take your annual leave, we just use this time to develop and sort out the collected data." ”

"When you get home from vacation, we'll do a few more verifications, and then we can start thinking about promotion."

"Is there a calculation for the screening cost?" Yu Zhiming asked with concern!

Academician Tan said: "I have done preliminary calculations, various physical examinations and laboratory analyses, which take two to three days, and the cost of a single person is close to 20,000 yuan. ”

A cancer screening of the liver and stomach costs 20,000 yuan!

This cost is really not low, and ordinary families may not be able to afford it.

Yu Zhiming frowned slightly, and Gu Qingran's voice sounded in his ears again, "Zhiming, this is still a simple screening cost, if we count our R&D investment in the early stage, it will be more than doubled." ”

Gu Qingran asked again: "Zhiming, do you know how much we have invested in the research and development of this very early cancer project so far?" ”

"How much?"

Although Yu Zhiming is also one of the project leaders, he really doesn't pay much attention to the funding issue.

Gu Qingran raised a finger.

"A hundred million?" Yu Zhiming guessed.

Gu Qingran said in a deep voice: "Add one more zero." ”

"So much?" Yu Zhiming was really shocked.

From its inception to the present, it has only been 10 months since the very early stage cancer program was established.

It is equivalent to consuming 100 million R&D funds a month, and spending money like water is not enough to describe.

Academician Tan took over and introduced Yu Zhiming and said: "We have counted the fifty people who were sent to you here before, and we have to do three screening inspections on an average of 1,000 people. ”

"When converted into various expenses, the average cost per person is about 5,000 yuan. In other words, for every 50 people you check, 5 million dollars are spent. ”

After a pause, Academician Tan continued: "Especially today's inspection ......"

"In order to select these 50 people, we conducted three rounds of examinations on a total of 8,673 high-risk people."

"Especially in the third round of inspections, there were more than 400 people in total, and the cost of inspection per person exceeded 15,000."

Academician Tan concluded: "The cost of today's inspection alone is more than 100 million. ”

Yu Zhiming just grinned and looked at Gu Qingran, "One billion, Ning'an Group shouldn't be able to come up with so much money, right?" ”

Gu Qingran nodded and said, "That's for sure." ”

"Ning'an bears one-third of it, and the remaining two-thirds is provided by the municipal government, the National Health Commission and the national scientific research fund."

Academician Zhang, who had not spoken much, said with a smile: "I have to say, Dr. Yu, you have won the trust of all parties." ”

"Although this project is terrifying, we have never worried about funds, and we have never been stuck with funds if we have not applied enough."

"That's true!" Academician Tan stroked the top of his head that had become much thinner, and sighed: "Just watching so much money spent every day, we are also under a lot of pressure. ”

"If the project lasts for three or five years, and there is no result to be produced, we don't know how to explain it."

"Luckily, we're out of luck."

Academician Tan smiled again and said: "Next, we need to consider promotion and reducing the cost of screening. ”

He said casually: "A special detection analyzer can be developed, and some key indicators required for screening can be collected on a medical instrument, which should reduce a lot of examination costs." ”

Gu Qingran also proposed: "The research and development of special medical instruments is not something that can be done in a short time. ”

"The most feasible thing nowadays is to customize the medical examination vehicle and integrate all the medical equipment needed for screening into one bus."

"Special vehicles are used exclusively for cancer screening."

Academician Zhang nodded approvingly: "I personally think this method is good. Dozens of this kind of medical vehicles have been customized and put in major cities across the country, and they have been promoted. ”

Academician Tan frowned slightly.

This medical car, Ning An's appetite is very big.

This is to keep the very early cancer screening firmly in their own hands, and do not want to share the profits with other medical units.

Academician Tan looked at Gu Qingran, and then at Yu Zhiming, who did not express his position, and did not say anything.

He doesn't have to worry about this kind of business promotion affairs, anyway, the honor and interests he should have will not lack him.

Yu Zhiming didn't think about it so much at all.

In his opinion, the most important thing is to reduce the cost of screening, so that low- and middle-income people can afford it......

Several people chatted for more than ten minutes, and Gu Qingran suggested that it was time for dinner, so it was better to go out and celebrate.

Yu Zhiming refused on the grounds that he would have to go to the pediatric surgery department to participate in the separation of conjoined babies later.

After sending everyone away, Yu Zhiming came to a single ward on the third floor and did a physical examination of Meng Xiumei, who had been transferred from the intensive care room.

The results of the examination are still quite optimistic, and Meng Xiumei's liver and kidney function are continuing to recover.

Yu Zhiming informed Meng Xiumei of the results of the examination, as well as her parents, and was about to leave, but was stopped by a shout.

"Doctor Yu, that, that, the ginseng pill you gave me last time, do you really want 300,000 pills?"

Yu Zhiming hummed and comforted: "You don't have to worry, that money is paid by Dr. Qiu Yi." ”

"His family has money."

Meng Xiumei asked again: "Doctor Yu, that ginseng pill is usually eaten by ordinary people, there should be no problem, right?" ”

Yu Zhiming asked suspiciously: "That ginseng pill is mainly used to extend the life of people who are seriously ill and dying, and ordinary people can't use it at all." ”

Meng Xiumei hurriedly said, "Doctor Yu, after you fed me the ginseng pills last time, there were still some remnants in the medicine bowl. ”

"My dad felt distressed about 300,000 yuan for a medicine, and he was reluctant to waste it, so he soaked it with warm water and drank it himself."

Yu Zhiming was a little speechless.

It seems that Meng Xiumei's problem of taking medicine indiscriminately also has a origin, following the roots.

Yu Zhiming looked at Meng Xiumei's father, only to see that this person looked embarrassed, and said a little nervously: "Doctor Yu, from that day to now, I have had two nosebleeds. ”

"Shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

Yu Zhiming couldn't help but smile and said, "It's not a big problem, this is a manifestation of making up for the fire." ”

He also admonished: "Don't take medicine casually in the future, you must take medicine according to the doctor's instructions." ”

Meng Xiumei's yellow little face showed a palpitating expression, and said, "This time my life is almost gone, but I remember it, and I won't take medicine casually in the future." ”

"Hey, Dr. Yu, I wasn't feeling well before, can I find out what's wrong?"

Yu Zhiming said frankly: "No. ”

"In the examination just now, except for your liver and kidneys, which are still recovering, and other organs are also damaged due to chain reaction function, no other abnormal visceral problems have been detected."

"It may be that you were cured by taking medicine indiscriminately before, or in the process of treating liver failure and kidney failure."

Some discomforts or illnesses in our body sometimes come and go inexplicably.

So that the doctor has no clue.

We humans still have a long, long way to go before we fully understand and grasp the mysteries of the human body......

Not long after Yu Zhiming walked out of the ward, he saw Shen Yiyi, dressed in a white coat, radiant and radiant, coming out of a ward.

"Dr. Yu......"

Shen Yiyi came to the front with a smile on her face, and said happily: "Congratulations on the major breakthrough progress of the very early cancer project you lead. ”

"Thank you for your congratulations!"

Yu Zhiming corrected again: "Strictly speaking, the project is led by Academician Tan and Academician Zhang, and I am a tool person. ”

Shen Yiyi looked at him reverently and said, "Doctor Yu, you are really humble, if it weren't for your tool skills, this project wouldn't exist." ”

Yu Zhiming smiled lightly.

Shen Yiyi asked expectantly, "Doctor Yu, when it is convenient for you, can I study with my cousin, Doctor Zhou, and Doctor Duan?" ”

This one......

Yu Zhiming groaned and said, "Doctor Shen, you should have learned from your cousin that they are not learning from me, but mainly helping me sort out my medical records." ”

"I didn't teach them anything at all other than a few auscultation percussions."

Shen Yiyi said with a smile: "My cousin didn't say that, he told me that the gains from following Dr. Yu during this period of time will far exceed his improvement in the past few years." ”

Yu Zhiming said solemnly: "That is definitely his illusion, and his promotion mainly comes from his own efforts." ”

After a pause, he turned to say, "Doctor Shen, my teacher is a hundred times better than me in teaching others, and you must not live up to my teacher's expectations." ”

"I have something to do, I'm going back."

Yu Zhiming didn't wait for Shen Yiyi's reaction, raised his leg and left.

The reason why he rejected Shen Yiyi was not only because of the teacher's factors, but also because Shen Yiyi's external conditions were too good.

After long-term contact, Yu Zhiming felt that there might be some uncontrollable dangers......

PS.

It's the last few hours of the month, and do you still have a monthly pass? If you don't vote, it's a waste.
