The Godfather of Surgery

Hermes was hospitalized again, and his leg was saved. After three to four weeks of rehabilitation training, the external fixator can be removed, and the entire treatment is over.

Huang Jiacai was entrusted by Yang Ping and began to strategize. He had a mature plan in his heart.

First, a development limited company was established in the name of Yang Ping, which is actually an investment company, focusing on investment in the pharmaceutical industry, and then plans to use this investment company to control Ruixing and more companies in the future.

In this company, Yang Ping holds 90% of the shares, Xiao Su holds 10% of the shares, and has a registered capital of 100 million yuan. Huang Jiacai serves as the CEO and legal representative, and becomes Yang Ping's agent to help Yang Ping handle business affairs. thing.

Huang Jiacai is ambitious, he has a grand blueprint in his heart, and then he will realize it step by step.

After Li Baosheng's operation, Yang Ping does not need to do other operations for the time being, and Song Zimo and Xu Zhiliang can complete it.

Xu Zhiliang can't do difficult surgery now, but there is no problem with the independent chief surgeon in general surgery, and he can do it beautifully.

In this way, Song Zimo's burden can be greatly reduced, and he can concentrate on performing difficult operations.

When he was free, Yang Ping took time to go to Guilin, Guangxi, to inspect the laboratory of Concord in Guilin.

For the laboratory in Guilin, Yang Ping must master the detailed information before designing the animal experiment program according to the conditions of the laboratory.

It is very convenient to go from Nandu to Guilin, Guangxi. The high-speed train only takes three hours, which is not much different from the plane. Besides, you can also enter the system space laboratory to read books and do experiments on the road.

Arriving in Guilin, Director He of the laboratory took the driver and drove a Haval H9 to pick up Yang Ping.

The laboratory is located in Yanshan District, Guilin, where there is a breeding base for experimental monkeys. In order to facilitate the acquisition of experimental monkeys, Xiehe set up the laboratory here.

Professor Liang called me a few days ago and repeatedly explained that the reception must be done well.

Director He was very enthusiastic. When he received Yang Ping at the high-speed rail station, he shook hands and grabbed his backpack.

Lao He is the director of the laboratory. He used to work in the animal department of Guangxi Medical University. After the laboratory was established, he applied for a job here. There is no establishment in this laboratory, but the salary is much higher, and the work is interesting, which is very suitable for the old man. what life expectancy.

Before switching jobs, he also learned that this laboratory was established by Xiehe, and the plan existed for a long time, so he quit his original job and joined this laboratory.

Director He used to be a graduate of veterinary medicine. He likes animals and often studies them. He is an expert in experimental animals. He is familiar with the procurement, breeding, and care of experimental animals, as well as the production of most current medical models.

In addition to Director He, there are more than a dozen resident staff in the laboratory, plus rotating researchers, there are usually twenty or thirty people in the laboratory. Rotating, some from Xiehe, some from Hong Kong, and occasionally foreign researchers come over, and they usually stay for no more than three months.

On the way, Lao He introduced the situation of the laboratory. The Haval car stopped in the courtyard in front of several small buildings. There is a shed on the open-air parking lot. Under the shed, at least ten cars can be parked at the same time. The parking spaces are all painted standard parking spaces.

Lao He opened the car door and Yang Ping got out.

These small buildings are built very beautifully. They are all three stories. The yard is very big, and the trees inside are tall and big.

The front one is the office and dormitory, the second one is the laboratory, and the last one is the farm for experimental animals. Director He pointed to the distance.

Because the third building is far away, it is located on an artificial island, and a wide and deep trench has been dug around it. In the past, a bridge had to be passed, and an iron gate was locked on the bridge.

I've prepared the baby monkey you want, and the scoliosis model is ready. It's hard to find a monkey now. The supply company is in charge of my classmates. I told them, no matter what, we will We need to ensure the supply here, it’s not that they are complaining, it is true that the supply of experimental monkeys is currently in short supply, the last time a company in the United States asked for 1,500 monkeys, they refused, and there was no way to deliver.” Director He and several large-scale experiments in Guangxi Animal farms are all familiar.

Darwin said that humans evolved from monkeys, so monkeys are highly similar to humans in terms of genes, anatomy, immunity, physiology and metabolism. Therefore, monkeys are very suitable for medical and biological research experiments.

Especially in the pharmaceutical industry, the dependence on monkeys is more obvious. Every drug has side effects. What are the side effects? Carcinogenic, pathogenic, teratogenic, toxic, mutagenic, disabling, or even fatal? The best way to get data before it is used in humans is to get data from monkey experiments.

But not all monkeys are suitable for experiments. To become experimental monkeys, many conditions need to be met. At present, two commonly used monkeys are rhesus monkeys and cynomolgus monkeys. These two types of monkeys are anatomically and physiologically close to humans. The most popular medical laboratory animal.

In Europe, it costs about 5,000 euros to raise a marmoset, and 20,000 euros for a relatively large macaque, but in China, it only costs 8,000 yuan to raise a macaque for medical experiments.

The low cost of Chinese experimental monkeys determines the lower price, which is a huge temptation for foreign research institutions and pharmaceutical companies.

This kind of monkey, which costs 8,000 yuan, can be sold at a market price of 12,000 yuan, with a gross profit of 50%.

With such a large profit, naturally some people are willing to make money from monkeys, and as a result, many monkey raising bases have emerged in China.

Guangxi, Hainan and other places are places where monkey breeding bases are relatively concentrated. The breeding of experimental monkeys also requires professional knowledge. As a monkey for scientific research, it not only needs physical health, but also psychological health, so their breeding conditions are very good. it is good.

Now our laboratory is profitable, not only to meet our own experimental needs, but also to make money. In our spare time, we rent out some of our laboratories to some biomedical R\u0026D institutions to conduct drug and toxicity experiments. The fee is charged by the day, and the fee for one project is less. Hundreds of thousands, millions more. Director He was obviously very happy.

I ate at the cafeteria at noon. There is a pig farm nearby. The boss is very familiar with me. I asked him to help me go to the slaughterhouse to buy some fresh meat and pork offal. I will arrive later, and I will cook the ingredients as soon as they arrive.

According to Lao He's introduction, there are usually dozens of people eating in this laboratory, and the chef of the cafeteria is his wife.

Later, Lao He took Yang Ping to visit the laboratory. The equipment of this laboratory is not only complete, but also very advanced. There is an operating room with very sophisticated surgical anesthesia equipment, including extracorporeal circulation equipment, which means that it can simulate heart surgery.

When the scoliosis model is in a hurry, they usually cut the erector spinae to make the scoliosis model. Professor Liang said that the model made by this method is not suitable for your experiment. Therefore, we selected the model of scoliosis. For the experimental monkeys, all of these monkeys are eliminated, and the prepared monkeys are all scoliosis caused by teratogenic drugs during the embryonic period, so that the soft tissue structure of the entire spine remains intact. Director He is very professional about these.

People who are interested in their work and have a sense of professional honor will definitely be able to do their jobs well.

Our suppliers have mature technology for making other disease models, such as Parkinson's disease models, diabetes models, obesity models, middle cerebral artery occlusion models, hypertensive monkey models, and renal failure models. There are experimental monkeys carrying specific genes, which are used to build special models such as AIDS. However, they are not very skilled in the production of scoliosis models. They ask me to participate in the guidance every time. Professor Liang taught me. Lao He talked eloquently, when it came to experimental animals, he was very excited.

The business of experimental animals is also very professional. For example, the production of these models requires special feeding or drug injection to make monkeys suffer from the same diseases as humans, so as to study related drugs for the treatment of diseases.

The specific method has a high technical content. It is very particular to use drugs to make models, when to use drugs, what drugs to use, and how much to use. It is not easy to make a high-quality disease model.

After visiting the laboratory, Lao He took Yang Ping for a walk around the laboratory. This place is slightly developed and can be used as a tourist scenic spot.

The laboratory estimated a lot of investment at the time. The animal island was artificially constructed, and the surrounding isolated river and animal rest area were all done very well.

The animal rest area has swings, slides, seesaws, wooden houses, etc. for these monkeys to play in peacetime.

Around lunch time, Lao He received a call that fresh ingredients had arrived, and he asked the owner of the pig farm to get them, so he ordered the driver to drive to pick them up, and told the driver not to delay, put the ingredients in the cockpit, turn on the air conditioner, and get the ingredients. When you come back, give it to the kitchen immediately. The other ingredients are fine. This pork offal must be fresh, and it will be delicious when it is made.

The driver drove the Haval out again. In fact, the traffic is very convenient. The roads are all concrete. Compared with the concrete roads in the countryside, they are much wider, and they are still standard two-lane roads.

Yang Ping was very relieved about the conditions of this kind of laboratory. If he hadn't come in person, he wouldn't know the details. If he did some inquiries like this, he would have a clue in his heart. Many animal experiments could be handed over to them in the future.

In terms of technology, there is no need to worry at all, Lao He and these staff are very professional.

Those who are specifically engaged in research work are all postgraduates who have come from Concord, and there is no problem.

A few young people came back in a pickup truck, and Lao He said, These are Doctors from Concord. They can play. They often go out fishing in their spare time. I heard that you came today, and I asked them to catch a few fish. , I don’t know how the harvest will be.”

The young man parked the car. There was a big bucket in the pickup's bucket, and two people climbed up and carried it down.

I'll see, it's good.

Lao He walked over with Yang Ping, there were several big fish in the bucket, and the water splashed everywhere.

Send to the kitchen. Lao He ordered.

This is Dr. Yang! Lao He remembered to introduce.

A few young people greeted respectfully immediately, probably familiar with Yang Ping's situation, and it was recommended by Professor Liang himself, so a few people seemed rather restrained.

Have you bought everything for drinks? Beer, beer can't be less.

Lao He shouted, and it could be seen that he usually got along very well with these young people.

This car is so dirty, go wash it. Lao He felt sorry for the car.

The young man drove the car aside, picked up the tap, and started washing the car.

Look, what else is needed for the experiment, just say it.

Lao He took Yang Ping to read it and asked Yang Ping.

Each experimental project has its own specific requirements, and Lao He should prepare in advance.

If you usually use monkeys for spine surgery, is there a spine surgery body frame for fixing monkeys?

Yang Ping just took inventory, and this is the only thing missing.

Yes! There are several, in the warehouse.

Lao He knows the equipment like the back of his hand.

That's good, our spinal external fixator experiment has not left the factory. Once it leaves the factory, I will contact you and deliver it by express. We will do the external fixation surgery. You have to help and be responsible for daily adjustment. Yang Ping said simply Say division of labor.

Lao He said: Well, in the afternoon, I arranged a time, you will give a lecture to everyone, and the doctors from Xiehe will be responsible for your project.

In the kitchen, Lao He's wife sent a message to ask Lao He for help.

You go to work, I'll go around by myself.

Yang Ping looked around in the laboratory yard by himself, and several doctors came to chat up.
