Chapter 351: Excited Nature Magazine
With the rapid fermentation and spread of the news of the successful clinical trial of cell active agents in China, related content video news first appeared on platforms with relatively high user groups such as YouTube, Twitter, etc.
Xu Yun's influence has long been global, and with his previous remarks at the Nobel Prize ceremony, many people have more or less heard of this topic involving a new field, not to mention that many authoritative experts in the field of biology and genetic engineering have publicly expressed their doubts about it.
Therefore, the first reaction of overseas users after seeing this news is to express skepticism.
It is believed that the message is fake.
The main thing is that they can't imagine that an ordinary-looking potion can prevent all kinds of diseases.
It even makes the vaccinated younger and prolongs life.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a plot that only appears in a movie.
Many users who think they have seen the truth can be said to be the first time to leave a message under the video, showing that they are smart while not forgetting the irony of yin and yang.
"This news is so stupid, will anyone really believe it?"
"It's kind of like the plot of a movie, if it really happens, maybe I'll watch it."
"They must be dreaming."
"This kind of potion full of falsehoods, even we don't want it."
"Who would have believed that such a humble potion would make people young, when this is the fountain of immortality in the movie?"
But you must know that there are not many netizens who set up ladders to scientifically surf the Internet in China, and seeing the achievements that the people are proud of being so smeared, it can be said that it is tolerable and unbearable.
In this case, something has to be done to fight back.
Although there are limited manpower on the Internet side, it is difficult to convince the other party to gain the upper hand in this kind of argument, but netizens are not vegetarians.
Playing the Internet for so many years has the means.
Whatever you say, you have to correct Xu Yun's name and the name of the cell active agent.
Since at this time, many people who participated in the first batch of clinical trials on the intranet showed up to register accounts to post videos, and after obtaining consent and authorization, everyone began to reprint and move the videos, posting the videos on YouTube, intending to slap those doubters in the face with real evidence.
Sure enough, with the successful release of more and more related videos, many overseas users are gradually realizing something.
Seeing that the video almost looked like a different person in the past few days, the heart couldn't stop beating rapidly.
No matter who is faced with these physical changes, it is impossible to resist the temptation.
What's more, they also have a chance to get this kind of change, and it is not very difficult.
Relying on this, more and more people are willing to believe in the effect of cell active agents, and even the two factions have been divided later, directly arguing and scolding on YouTube and other platforms.
"It seems to be true, and the people who have participated in the clinical trials in the video have changed a lot."
"It's a miracle medicine!"
"Where can I get this potion, I can't wait to get younger."
"It must be a fake news on purpose, and don't forget that many of our experts and professors say it's impossible."
"I'm still not convinced."
"Xu Yun must be a messenger of God, he has come to help us."
In this case, many media and newspapers also began to exert their efforts to explain the notice issued by the Academy of Engineering.
But as the saying goes, some people are happy and some are sad, while ordinary people are immersed in eating melons and waiting with hope, some people can't sit still anyway.
They are the same authoritative experts who have previously publicly expressed skepticism.
In their opinion, with their years of experience and knowledge, it is normal to judge that Xu Yun's project is unlikely to have results, because they will not get anything if they do research.
It's just that they did two things wrong.
First of all, he should not take the opportunity to be interviewed to promote himself, and secondly, he put Xu Yun in the same position as them.
Because of this wrong judgment, it has led to such an embarrassing situation today.
No one thought that Xu Yun not only achieved research results, but also ended the first round of clinical trials in such a short period of time, which was simply beyond their understanding.
Especially seeing that there are more and more voices supporting Xu Yun on the Internet, he is even more afraid to show his face in public.
All you can do is hide at home and wait for the heat to pass.
So in the past two days, a very interesting phenomenon has happened, many professors in universities or researchers in research institutes have chosen to suspend classes and take leave, and dare not express their stance again.
Of course, among these people, there are also leading ironclists, who always believe in their own judgment.
I still don't think a cancer vaccine can be developed so quickly.
As for the news reports on the Internet and the videos of the changes recorded by the people involved in the clinical trial, they are all labeled as fake, and it can be said that they are completely immersed in their own world and cannot extricate themselves.
Meanwhile.
In the dean's office, Takashi Nagai, who is the dean, and his student Daisuke Hirakawa knelt next to him in the resting place, and naturally talked about the most popular thing on the whole network in the past two days.
"Teacher."
"Xu Yun seems to have really synthesized a cancer vaccine, and the first round of clinical trials they conducted before has ended."
"It seems to be amazing to look at the news reports."
"Are we wrong?"
Daisuke Hirakawa still calls the teacher most of the time in private, which can deepen the relationship between the teacher and the student, and in layman's terms, it is easier to hug the thighs.
After all, the hospital has gone downhill at present, and the previous glory and achievements are long gone.
He is also an oncologist, and he has not been able to find a patient for a long time, and the position he has will definitely change and decline.
Therefore, in order to ensure that his own interests are not lost, he can only rely on the teacher who is the dean in front of him.
Picking up the teacher's favorite porcelain teapot with both hands, he respectfully poured tea for him while talking about the questions in his heart, hoping to get an accurate answer to this matter.
Takashi Nagai was obviously no stranger to what was happening on the Internet, and he listened to all these words, still maintaining his original calm face and seemingly smiling at the corners of his mouth.
This performance is obviously in the chest.
He picked up the teacup in front of him and put it to his lips to take a sip, and paused for two or three seconds before he spoke.
"It's just a bluff."
"Teacher, do you still think it's fake news?" Daisuke Hirakawa said it was a little incredulous.
In his opinion, the other party has shown so much evidence, which is enough to show that the research on cancer vaccines has indeed been effective, if he is not sure, the current global hot discussion will only bring negative impacts, and the gains outweigh the losses.
However, from school to now, he believes in what his teacher, Takashi Nagai, said.
So the next second, he pricked up his ears again.
"Of course."
Takashi Nagai first affirmed his judgment before opening his mouth to analyze it to Daisuke Hirakawa.
"Don't forget the time they have been recruiting experimenters, it's only been so short, I don't think the clinical trial is over, if I guess correctly, the other party should have bought off those who participated in the clinical trial, only this possibility is the most reasonable."
"It's just that the other party was too anxious, and he didn't even have the patience to wait for this little time, and announced the research results of his project too early."
After listening to these words of his teacher, Daisuke Hirakawa couldn't help but nod after thinking about it carefully.
I think there is some truth to it.
In his experience and cognition, there is indeed no precedent for completing clinical trials so quickly.
In this way, there is a real possibility of fraud.
Under normal circumstances, it often takes a while for a vaccine to be effective when it is in clinical trials, and it often takes a lot of time to follow up with strict observation.
It can only be said that Xu Yun's research group is at a much higher level than them, and it is unrealistic to expect low-level people to understand the thoughts of high-level people.
So it's normal for Takashi Nagai to have this kind of confidence and judgment, but unfortunately it's destined to be the wrong path.
They will not know and even imagine that the drug synthesized by Xu Yun's research team can exert the maximum effect in a very short time, and the entire clinical trial will naturally not take too long.
Originally, Daisuke Hirakawa was still a little suspicious in his heart, but after being brainwashed by his teacher, he immediately strengthened his confidence.
Even the mood is much better.
After all, because of the cancer patients in the hospital, they can't wait for Xu Yun to have a problem.
But the next second, Daisuke Hirakawa seemed to think of something, so he asked his teacher again.
"By the way, teacher, should we do something, or expose the other party's scam?"
"Just keep waiting." Takashi Nagai shook his head and vetoed Daisuke Hirakawa's proposal.
"We don't need to intervene in this matter, judging from the current situation, the other party is ready to put this medicine on the market, and if it doesn't achieve the desired effect, some people will naturally question it."
"At that time, it won't be so easy to break the game."
After saying these last words, Takashi Nagai's face returned to calm and continued to drink tea.
With this useful information, all the worries in Daisuke Hirakawa's heart disappeared, as if he had seen that day coming.
——
While Takashi Nagai and Daisuke Hirakawa were full of confidence, Ms. Sperkey, the current editor-in-chief of the journal, was reviewing a paper from the Laboratory of Cell Activity Agents at the headquarters of Nontun's Nature Magazine at the same time.
"Ms. Sperkey, I've sorted out the papers you need."
In the editor-in-chief's office, a relatively young female staff member put a thick amount of literature in front of Sperky and whispered a reminder.
Hearing this, Sperkey, who was busy, temporarily stopped his movements and raised his eyes to look.
Then he asked the staff in front of him, "Have you all arrived?" ”
"It's Ms. Sperky, and they're all waiting for you in the conference room right now." The female clerk took over and nodded in reply.
Getting the answer he wanted, Sperkey stood up in the next second, and commanded as he sorted out his things on the table.
"Tell them I'll be right over."
"Okay."
The young staff member nodded in response, then turned away and did not linger in the office.
Soon, as the other party's figure disappeared from view, Sperkey's eyes fell on the paper on the table again, and the expression on his face looked a little complicated.
As one of the top magazines in the world, they have cooperated with Xu Yun several times, and the process in the middle is also very smooth.
Last time, in order to be the first to release the technical achievements of a new chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy, she personally went to Jingzhou to meet with the legendary human genius scientist Xu Yun.
This time, Nature magazine once again received Xu Yun's paper submission.
She herself is certainly no stranger to this recent hot field, but she doesn't know how far Xu Yun has studied.
According to Xu Yun's request, this achievement needs to be published on the cover of the latest issue of the magazine.
As we all know, the achievements that can be selected as the cover of the magazine have made great contributions to the development of mankind and belong to a very important level.
After all, if the content of the paper is imperfect or there are problems, it will be their natural journal that will be embarrassed.
The image that has been built up over so many years must not be corrupted in her hands.
Therefore, no matter who the contributor is, she will strictly follow the requirements of the regulations.
As long as the paper is determined to be of great value, it can be published in the latest issue as a cover page.
This can be regarded as meeting Xu Yun's requirements.
However, she herself is not a major in the field of biology, so she can't analyze the quality of the content of the paper at all, and even if she asks people in the relevant field to judge, I am afraid it is difficult to have a clear confirmation.
Therefore, for this paper, she specially invited more than a dozen authorities in the field of biology and genetic engineering to form today's expert group to judge the authenticity of the content of the paper.
At this point, her mind worked, and the next second she quickly came back to her senses, and then took her paper to the conference room.
In the past two days, the official account of the Academy of Engineering announced the end of the clinical trial, although it has caused heated discussions around the world, but has not disclosed the detailed data, and for experts and professors who really love this industry, it can be said that it is as uncomfortable as it is to not see the detailed data.
It just so happened that they received an invitation from the journal Nature and were quite excited to learn that it was to review the paper opened by Xu Yun's research group.
It can be said that I chose to agree without any hesitation.
After all, there are not many such opportunities.
At this moment, in the conference room, seeing that Sperkey had not yet come, many professors with silver hair couldn't wait.
Frequently asked the young female staff member in the conference room.
"How long is this discussion going to begin, and we're not here to sit and play."
"Let's get started."
"When is your editor-in-chief coming?"
The young female staff who came in advance was a little overwhelmed by the repeated questions of these academic authorities in front of them, so they hurriedly responded to appease the emotions of these professors.
"Excuse me, professors, wait a while, our editor-in-chief has already come."
Just as her words fell, she heard a familiar voice coming from behind her.
"You've been waiting for a long time."
Who else could it be that Sperkey didn't happen to come over?
The female staff was overjoyed when she saw the editor-in-chief coming, and quickly turned around and said hello.
"Editor-in-chief."
"There's nothing to do here, you can get busy first." Sperkey nodded at the other and commanded.
The other side has long been unable to stay with these academic giants, and when they heard the words of their own editor-in-chief at this moment, they were naturally like an amnesty, and they left immediately without any drag.
When the more than a dozen professors in the conference room saw Sperkey coming, they suddenly changed their attitude just now, and their faces were full of smiles.
"Ms. Sperkey, since you're here, let's get started."
As he spoke, his eyes were always on the paper material in Sperkey's hand.
Sperkey naturally noticed the little gesture, but she didn't say much about it.
On the contrary, there was joy in my heart.
After all, the formation of an expert group this time is to review the papers, and the more interested the professors who come to participate, the more true the conclusions will be, and this is exactly what Nature needs to adhere to.
The thought stopped, and Sperkey didn't delay any longer, walked to his place and sat down and distributed the papers.
Sure enough, when these academic giants got the paper, they immediately felt like a treasure, and they carefully reviewed it in the next second.
Completely treated Sperky as air.
Because she has to review papers frequently, as the editor-in-chief of Nature magazine, she usually deals with these experts.
Their character is basically clear.
At least when you're focused, you can't be disturbed.
This is also the reason why she asked the female staff member to leave first, so as not to affect the speed of the paper review.
That's it.
Sperkey didn't sit here for the rest of the day, and considering the time it would take to review the paper, she didn't forget to continue the unfinished work.
From time to time, I looked at these authorities and could see that their expressions were quite strange.
Doubt.
Astonished.
Shock and excitement.
So many emotions quickly changed on her face, but it made her also have a strong curiosity.
I want to know what the paper is about.
Nearly two hours passed, and more than a dozen authorities exchanged their opinions with each other before they were ready to make their final conclusions to Sperky.
"Professors, I don't know the ...... of this paper"
"Xu really lives up to the reputation of the most talented scientist in mankind, not only did they synthesize the perfect drug for the first time, but from the clinical trial data given in the paper, this is indeed a special agent that can enhance the activity of human cells and prevent the occurrence of diseases."
"The key point is that this agent has no side effects, it's unimaginable." At this time, another professor said with emotion on his face.
Hearing all these words, Sperky's breathing became rapid.
She really didn't expect that the achievement of this topic would be higher than that of a new chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy.
If this paper is published in the journal Nature, its influence in the world will definitely increase.
It has become the most authoritative academic journal in the world.
After letting herself take a deep breath and calm her emotions for a while, she said very decisively:
"Thanks to the help of the professors, this paper will be published as the cover in the latest issue of the journal Nature."
"It is also a great honor for us to witness the emergence of a work that can change the medical profession, it seems that we are indeed old, and the future needs to be handed over to young people to develop and create."
The old professor, who was the first to come to the conclusion, glanced at the others next to him and responded with a smile on his face.
For them, it can be said that there is no regret to see such a big scientific research achievement in the medical field in their lifetime.
After all, before Xu Yun set foot in this field, they would never have thought of this day at all.
