Chapter 264: The Principle of Superconductivity at Room Temperature?
The sales volume reached 50 million a day, which is very huge for any drug.
Of course, this can only be regarded as the total sales of a batch, and a batch is only so once.
But even so, the first batch of drugs was sold in one day, which can be regarded as a miracle in the pharmaceutical sales industry.
After all, how many new drugs can get so many orders on the first day of their launch.
However, it is unexpected, but it is also reasonable.
After all, it is the reputation brought by the clinical trial process, and there are many hospitals with corresponding qualifications in China, hoping to let the RSCA clinical trial be carried out in their hospital, which is a super antithrombotic drug that Xiehe has said, and even the top cardiovascular and cerebrovascular experts of Xiehe, Dr. Yin Kangping are greatly praised, can this be bad?
And the facts in the subsequent clinical trials have also proved this, this new drug, indeed has enough to shock them.
……
"I'm sorry, it's really not a dollar, we are already in the second batch of urgent contact with the foundry, it will probably start sales in two months, please pay attention to the relevant news at that time, we will also notify your hospital, thank you for your understanding."
“…… Sorry, but our first batch of drugs has indeed been sold out, and there really isn't a drop left...... Not a single dollar is gone...... The second batch of sales will be opened in two months, so please pay attention to ......"
In the Shanghai branch of Pengzu Life Science and Technology Co., Ltd., the employees in charge of consulting business are constantly receiving phone calls, calls from various hospitals across the country, so that their work has hardly stopped in the past few days, and they answer the phone as soon as they go to work.
There are 37,000 hospitals in the country, and if you ignore some of them that are not qualified enough, it is conservatively estimated that there are 20,000 hospitals that can perform frequent surgeries.
If you conservatively estimate that only 10,000 of these hospitals have a demand for antithrombotic drugs, they may receive more calls than expected.
And sometimes it's not just these hospitals.
Hospitals in Hong Kong and Macau, as well as hospitals abroad, are already concerned about RSCA.
"Sorry...... Well? Wait, are you the Minato City Sanatorium & Hospital? Then I'm sorry, RSCA has not yet obtained marketing authorization from the Hong Kong Food and Drug Administration, so it cannot be sold to you? Well? Private transactions? Sorry, we are first-class citizens and do not do illegal things. ”
Their reception staff also speak Cantonese, so they can also answer calls from the port city in Cantonese.
It's just that the customer service staff is a little surprised that the hospital in Hong Kong City is willing to do such a thing as a private transaction.
This means that they trade drugs privately, and then the other party uses them for clinical treatment.
And the Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, this customer service staff also knows, this is one of the top private hospitals in Hong Kong, the famous gambling king Stanley Ho was treated here, and Andy was also treated here after being injured after falling from a horse.
As for how many other Hong Kong tycoons have also been treated here, although it has not been announced, it is obviously unknown.
Therefore, it is indeed very normal for Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital to be willing to make such a private transaction.
But in any case, this is also considered an illegal thing, so it is naturally impossible for the customer service staff to give a positive answer.
Of course, such an important matter should also be informed to their superiors.
Soon, the customer service staff immediately told his immediate superior, who was also the head of their marketing department, about the news.
The head of the marketing department was quick to inform their general manager, Kingsley Weir, about the incident.
"These hospitals in non-mainland areas are already in a hurry."
Kingsley Weil is not puzzled by this, for these private hospitals, the success rate of treatment is obviously very important, after all, it is also about their reputation, especially when treating the wealthy, they of course want to be able to guarantee the success rate of the operation, so as to attract more customers.
So, of course, they want to be able to use the RSCA, and as for the fact that they may have to pay more for this kind of thing - of course, there is no need to worry about these private hospitals, because the wool is out of the sheep, and the rich people will willingly pay for it.
"Yes, you can agree, but it is necessary to make it clear that we only sell it on the mainland, and how they want to take it abroad to use it is their business, and we don't care."
"If they call again, just reply like that."
"Yes, Mr. Vail."
The head of the marketing department got instructions from Kingsley Weir, nodded, and left the office as well.
Kingsley Weil rubbed his chin and thought, "But we can't let these guys earn all the money, we only earn a wholesale price." ”
Now, he has begun to skillfully think about how to bring greater benefits to the company.
"I still have to ask the boss to contact him as soon as possible and open up the international market as soon as possible."
It would be a pity if they couldn't make the world's money with such an awesome medicine.
……
"Well, I see, I'll contact Bayer in a while, but according to my estimate, those companies should also contact you during this time, and they should be able to talk about some good prices at that time."
In Li Mu's office, Oxford University, he said to Weir's call.
Then they hung up.
In China, he has his own connections, so he can set up his own production line, and in the approval of clinical procedures, he can also pass various approvals at a faster speed without violating procedural justice.
And if there is no relationship abroad, it will obviously not work, so cooperation is the most ideal.
Bayer, who has contacted them, is also the first choice at present, of course, it still depends on the price given by all parties later.
During the period when RSCA was listed in China, he did not contact the big pharmaceutical companies, in order to increase their leverage by waiting for the effect shown after the listing now.
Now that their RSCA is selling 50 million in one day, I believe that it will not be long before these pharmaceutical companies will not be able to sit still.
Before the expiration of the patent period of about 20 years, whichever company cooperates with them first will be able to enjoy the monopoly profits of this period, and they will be able to make money almost lying down.
Even if there are thrombolytic drugs that are more powerful than RSCA in the future, the market size of RSCA will definitely not be cut off.
What's more, in a few decades, will there really be a thrombolytic drug in the world that is stronger than RSCA?
The medical community around the world is skeptical.
RSCA is simply not like a thrombolytic drug in this era, it does not meet the definition of the fourth generation of thrombolytic drugs in the medical community, and may be the fifth generation of thrombolytic drugs.
Although the medical community did not define the fifth generation of thrombolytic drugs in the past, RSCA has forced the medical community to define it according to its efficacy.
Otherwise, the original fourth-generation thrombolytic drugs will be compressed into 3.5 generations.
"I'll leave this matter alone for now."
Li Mu shook his head, and then didn't care about it anymore, looked at the time, "Hmm...... My lab application has come down, now it's time to go and see the lab. ”
About half a month ago, he applied for the school's condensed matter physics laboratory, and after such a long queue, it was finally his turn.
Getting up and leaving the office, the students of Merton College who met along the way greeted him one after another, showing respect.
It was like that before he won the Fields Medal, and even more so after he won the Fields Medal.
In this way, he left the academy and finally came to the physics laboratory building.
"Hello Professor Li, I'm George Evans, the director of the lab, and welcome to you."
As soon as he entered the laboratory building, a man recognized him, greeted him, and introduced himself.
Li Mu nodded: "Director Evans, hello." ”
Evans smiled at him, and continued, "Now I'll take you to the lab first." ”
Subsequently, under the leadership of Evans, Li Mu came to the door of the laboratory.
"Our condensed matter physics laboratory is one of the most advanced in the UK."
"We have all the experimental equipment, such as this X-ray diffractometer and Raman spectrometer, which can be used to measure the structural characterization of materials."
Evans turned his head to look at Li Mu as he spoke, but at this time, he suddenly realized that the person he was introducing didn't seem to need his introduction at all, he couldn't help coughing embarrassedly twice, and then said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm used to it, Professor Li, you should know everything." ”
Li Mu waved his hand with a smile and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, if you are willing to give a verbal introduction, I am also happy to listen." ”
"Haha, I guess it's still not necessary."
Evans shook his head, but at this time, he saw a big guy again, his eyes lit up, and then he said to Li Mu: "Of course this thing, please let me introduce it to you." ”
"ARPES, angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, our angle-resolved photoelectron spectrometer is also the world's top ARPES, worth up to 3 million pounds, the third-generation technology, the accessories that can be used in it are the best, such as hemispheric analyzers, Manipulator ......"
"Studying condensed matter physics, having such a guy here, can definitely bring very good experimental results."
Evans introduced this extremely complicated instrument to Li Mu like a few treasures, all kinds of pipes, and from the perspective of an ordinary person, he would definitely be confused.
Li Mu also nodded, this thing will probably be the instrument he will focus on in his next research.
For the study of topological insulating materials and superconducting materials, ARPES is a relatively important equipment.
"That's all, Professor Li, if you have any needs, just contact me." Evans said, "Oh yes, what about the rest of your team? ”
Li Mu smiled: "Now I am the only one in my team. ”
Evanston was stunned: "Only ...... Are you alone? ”
"Yes." Li Mu waved his hand: "I don't need too many people for my topic. ”
"That's right." Evans nodded, but still asked with some curiosity, "What about ...... May I take the liberty of asking, what is your topic? ”
"That's all condensed matter physics can do." Li Mu shook his head, and did not hide his topic: "What I plan to study is the principle of superconductors. ”
"The principle of superconductors?" Evans nodded, "I see, then I wish you success." ”
But at this time, another voice came from the door of the laboratory: "Professor Li Mu, if you want to study superconductors, why don't you join my research group?" ”
Li Mu and Evans were both stunned, turned their heads to look at the door, and then they saw a middle-aged man walk in.
Evans said, "Huh? Professor Wilbur, why are you here? ”
"It's not normal for me to be here, I just want to see who takes my lab first."
The Professor Wilbur looked at Li Mu and said, "What I didn't expect was that it was actually Professor Li Mu. ”
Li Mu turned his head and glanced at this person, he didn't know who this Professor Wilbur was, but for what he said, he still needed to correct it: "This Professor Wilbur, I need to explain that no one has taken the lead, this is the arrangement of the school's laboratory management office, if you have any doubts, please find the laboratory management office, thank you." ”
Hearing Li Mu's words, Wilbur spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, it's what I said that is wrong. ”
"However, Mr. Li Mu, what I just proposed, maybe you should really consider whether to join our team, so that our team doesn't need to find another laboratory."
"It is necessary for me to reveal to you that what we are going to study is also superconductivity, and it is also superconductivity at room temperature!"
Wilbur's words were full of confidence.
Li Mu: "...... Superconductivity at room temperature? ”
"Yes, it's room temperature superconductivity."
Wilbur nodded heavily.
Li Mu immediately laughed and said, "I remember that some time ago, didn't the team in South Korea already claim that they had developed a room temperature superconductor, and you developed it again?" ”
"Nonono, Professor Lee, don't confuse us with those Koreans." Wilbur waved his hand: "Their research is not detailed enough, and they don't pay attention to the principle, but our research starts from the principle, what our team plans to discover is the principle of room temperature superconductivity, as for the development of actual materials, we will start after revealing the principle of room temperature superconductivity." ”
"Oh? Is that actually the case? Li Mu's eyebrows furrowed.
What is the principle of room temperature superconductivity?
According to the detailed explanation of superconducting material technology in his mind, there is no principle of room temperature superconductivity, but there is the principle of high-temperature superconductivity, the principle of low-temperature superconductivity, and the so-called second-class superconductor principle.
The BCS theory is a low-temperature superconductivity theory.
But in any case, superconductivity is superconductivity, which can eventually be explained under a unified theory and framework.
Just like string theory, there used to be 4 different string theories, until they were finally unified by one of Edward Witten's M theories.
Therefore, what Wilbur said about the principle of room temperature superconductivity, Li Mu did not agree at all.
In addition, if they are really theoretically derived from the principle of superconductivity at room temperature, then why use it in the laboratory?
For example, how can extremely high pressures lead to lower temperature requirements for superconductivity?
Something like a neutron star could be a supergiant superconductor.
So, there are only two possibilities, the first is that Wilbur is fooling him, and the second is that Wilbur's team is thinking wrong.
In any case, the theory of superconductivity at room temperature has a kind of "beauty" in Li Mu's eyes.
It's just that Wilbur didn't know what Li Mu was thinking, but he said very confidently: "Professor Li, your mathematical ability is also worthy of our invitation to join, after all, the physical theory of condensed matter does need the help of mathematics." ”
"This is the result of easily winning the Nobel Prize in Physics - of course, Professor Li, what I know is that you may already be on the shortlist for the Nobel Prize in Physics, but if you can win the Nobel Prize twice, I believe you will not turn it down, right?"
Well, regardless of whether Professor Wilbur's team is wrong in their thinking, this guy must be a big fool anyway.
I started painting the Nobel Prize in Physics.
Therefore, Li Muwan refused: "I'm sorry, Professor Wilbur, I'm not interested in the theory of room temperature superconductivity right now, what I want to study is only something in the field of high-temperature superconductivity." ”
The high temperature in superconductivity refers to the field where superconductivity can be achieved at the temperature of liquid nitrogen, so the temperature of high-temperature superconductivity is much lower than that of room-temperature superconductivity.
"Besides, I'm going to do the experiment now, so I'm sorry."
Obviously, he meant to drive people out.
Hearing Li Mu's refusal, Wilbur spread his hands indifferently: "Okay, since Professor Li doesn't agree, then forget it, then I wish you a successful project." ”
Li Mu smiled: "Thank you, and I wish you success in your project." ”
There was nothing to say, Wilbur and Evans were both gone.
In the laboratory, only Li Mu remained.
No nonsense, his research began.
The preparation required for his research is very simple, nothing more than various superconducting materials and these experimental equipment in front of him.
The most indispensable materials in the condensed matter laboratory are all kinds of superconducting materials, so he doesn't even have to buy them himself, these commonly used materials have been prepared in the laboratory.
Therefore, his next work is also very simple.
"Let's try YBCO first."
Finding YBCO, Li Mu began his research.
YBCO, yttrium-barium-copper-oxygen, the world's first material that exhibits a superconducting state at temperatures above 77K, has a very special status for the entire superconducting community.
And Li Mu also plans to use this material to bring a new shock to the superconducting world!
