Chapter 316 Surprising News

Deepin Technology originally invested huge amounts of money to build four key laboratories with specifications that rank among the best in the world. It can be said that it took the risk that the company may not be able to operate normally. Later, the solid-state battery laboratory successfully developed a metal all-solid-state battery, which ushered in major changes in the global battery industry and completely solved the problem of insufficient funds.

Unlike research institutes run by some domestic Internet giants, Deepin Technology’s laboratories are all funded by the company.

There is no need to be self-financing.

Simply put, it means throwing money at any cost.

In Xu Yun's vision, even if it is a bottomless pit, it must be filled.

Because he knows very well that each of the laboratory research projects is related to the future development of human civilization.

It is a long-term layout.

Fortunately, the performance in the laboratory did not disappoint.

The Intelligent Medical Research Laboratory, which initially cooperated with Lianying Medical Equipment Company, successfully integrated intelligent diagnostic systems with medical equipment. After being deployed in hospitals, it greatly alleviated the pressure on physician resource shortages.

It has also helped United Medical to gradually regain its domestic market share, with the number of devices sold increasing every year.

You must know that before this, almost all hospitals, whether in small counties or big cities, used overseas equipment.

Today this situation has been greatly improved.

The intelligent medical research laboratory behind it is developing towards intelligent medical surgery cabins.

If the research is successful, it will completely change the traditional medical model.

As for the solid-state battery laboratory and artificial intelligence laboratory, they promote the battery revolution and realize intelligent driving.

No matter which one is taken out, it will shock the whole world.

However, there is one thing in common in the project research and development of these three laboratories.

Xu Yun is involved in all projects.

In the remaining biological research laboratories, project research and development relies entirely on the laboratory's staff.

Of course, there is nothing that can be done about it, because Xu Yun is not good at research in the fields of biology and genetic engineering.

It really doesn't help much.

Only funding and support from external forces can be guaranteed.

Now that good news finally came from the biological research laboratory, one can imagine how happy he was.

Without any hesitation, he postponed his return to the Institute of Quantum Information and Quantum Technology and immediately went to the Deep Technology Bioresearch Laboratory in Longhu Science and Technology Park, Jingzhou City.

"How much do you know about the research results of this biological research laboratory?"

On November 13, 2023, in Jingzhou City, Xu Yun asked Meng Songyan next to him in the car on the way to Longhu Science and Technology Park.

Xu Yun gave the company's laboratories sufficient autonomy. In addition, he has been busy with quantum computers during this period, so he is not very clear about the latest results of the biological research laboratory.

After all, this kind of thing cannot be explained clearly over the phone.

Originally, he did not notify Meng Songyan. Meng Songyan was mainly responsible for the company's business.

I usually have a lot of things on my hands.

Perhaps knowing that Xu Yun had not been to the company for a long time, Meng Songyan took the initiative to accompany him to the laboratory after learning that he was coming to Longhu Science and Technology Park.

Anyway, the laboratory and the company are not far apart.

Compared to previous years, Meng Songyan looked more mature and steady, and the white hair on his head was more like a symbol of honor.

Speaking of which, ever since Xu Yun became a professor and then entered the Academy of Sciences, he has hardly been involved in the company's affairs.

This made him unable to remember the last time the two of them talked.

Facing his boss's inquiry, he naturally took it very seriously and quickly searched for answers in his memory.

"I don't know the specific content. I only know that it is a technological breakthrough in the treatment of cancer tumors."

"I hope you can give us a surprise." Xu Yun nodded and replied.

Cancer has always been a difficult problem that the global medical community strives to overcome, but as of today, there is still no good solution.

Unknown how many people die from cancer every year.

Even after spending huge amounts of medical expenses, many are still unable to keep them.

The originally good family was shattered in an instant.

This is why so many people invest in the development of specific drugs every year in the hope of eradicating cancer.

However, the reality is that not only can cancer not be eradicated, but it is also becoming increasingly common among younger people.

It is no exaggeration to say that if the laboratory can make progress in cancer treatment technology, then in his opinion, its importance will be much higher than that of the quantum computer cloud platform.

Because quantum computers represent the future, but cancer treatment is about the present.

Only by ensuring the health of human civilization can we talk about the future.

He knew very well that Meng Songyan's area of ​​expertise was company operations, so it was understandable that he didn't know much about the situation in the laboratory. If he wanted to know the details, he could only wait until the laboratory.

With his thoughts staying here, Xu Yun said nothing more.

Wait patiently for the vehicle to move.

Seeing that the car fell into silence again, Meng Songyan was unwilling to give up this opportunity to communicate more with his boss.

After a slight hesitation, he took the initiative to speak more.

"Academician Ding has always been meticulous in his research. If it wasn't really good news, he probably wouldn't have informed the company immediately like this."

Academician Ding Xu Yun was naturally familiar to Meng Songyan. As an academician of the Academy of Engineering and an expert in cancer oncology, he had spent a lot of effort to persuade him to join the company's biological research laboratory to take charge of projects. However, it turns out that there is basically no problem in selecting people.

As Meng Songyan said, Academician Ding is also strict with himself in addition to demanding others.

Perhaps one of their discoveries may be important to the outside world, but as long as they feel that it has not achieved the ultimate goal, they will not take it seriously. Let alone writing a paper and publishing it in a journal, there is basically no need to talk about it.

So it seems that the laboratory has not yet produced results since its establishment, but in fact it has already been among the top in the world.

It was also due to this situation that I saw Academician Ding suddenly attaching so much importance to this achievement.

He guessed that there must have been a major breakthrough, so he was so excited.

Seeing that Meng Songyan thought so, he turned around and smiled.

"It seems that this time it is finally our biological research laboratory's turn to become famous all over the world."

"Boss, you still have a far-sighted vision." Meng Songyan sighed from the bottom of his heart upon hearing this.

What he said was not flattery, it was completely true.

I still remember that when Xu Yun wanted to establish three of the world's top laboratories in one go, he, as the company's head of operations, disagreed.

Everyone knows how top scientific research laboratories are a money hole, which is difficult to fill with corporate funds.

In addition, these laboratories still invest money regardless of the cost, which can easily cause the company's capital chain to break, and the impact on the company will be huge.

It is only because of Xu Yun's persistence that the top laboratory with a global reputation is now established.

Now even biological research laboratories are joining the ranks, which fully proves how forward-looking Xu Yun's previous decisions were.

Without the original advance layout, there is really not much certainty about what Deepin Technology will do right now.

Xu Yun listened to Meng Songyan's words. Although he looked calm on the surface, he was actually happy inside.

Not long after.

When the vehicle arrived at Longhu Science and Technology Park smoothly, Meng Songyan took the initiative to come down and open the door for Xu Yun.

It is worth mentioning that there is no greeting staff downstairs at this moment.

Xu Yun believed that Ding Wei invited him to take charge of the laboratory project and also took a fancy to his emphasis on scientific research.

At least I won't waste time on research experiments just to meet someone.

Xu Yun is also very supportive of this.

He knew very well what time meant to scientific researchers. It would be really disappointing if they really wasted time going downstairs to greet him.

Besides, he didn't like being surrounded by a group of people.

I encounter enough reporters on a daily basis.

Of course, he did not tell anyone else about his sudden attack on the biological research laboratory.

However, Meng Songyan originally planned to ask the company's senior management to come down to greet him. After all, he could count the number of times Xu Yun came to the company on two hands.

In the end, Xu Yun said that he would go to the company to sit there after he was done, so that others would not have to come.

Meng Songyan was undoubtedly very excited when he heard the news, and he immediately agreed on the spot.

In this way, Xu Yun came to the biological research laboratory with Meng Songyan and driver and bodyguard Wang Pengfei.

——

The situation of this project team can basically be seen from the atmosphere of the laboratory and the performance of the researchers.

After Xu Yun and the three of them entered the public area of ​​the laboratory, they saw busy figures wearing white research uniforms.

It was as if everyone didn't even see them, and they stood there for more than half a minute before anyone reacted.

"Xu Yuan?"

"It's Xu Yuan here!"

At first, the other party seemed a little unbelievable, but after confirming it, he couldn't help shouting excitedly.

After speaking, he quickly went to find Ding Wei.

Although Xu Yun is not an academician in their field of biomedicine, as the saying goes, the shadow of a famous tree, with the many miracles Xu Yun has created and the quantum computer cloud platform just completed last month, he is undoubtedly recognized by everyone. Idols are worthy of admiration.

This mentality is especially prevalent among young researchers.

Xu Yun did not stop him, waved his hand at the other party, and still stood there waiting.

Biological research laboratories are different from other laboratories in that they have stricter environmental requirements.

Neither Xu Yun nor Meng Songyan had changed their clothes, and they were not suitable for wandering around in the laboratory.

It seemed that he did not expect Xu Yun to arrive so quickly. Not long after, two middle-aged and elderly figures wearing research clothes came out. In addition to Ding Wei from the Department of Medicine of the Academy of Engineering, there was also Ms. Zhou Lihua, a senior expert in the field of genetic engineering. .

It can be said that the two of them are responsible for the projects of the biological research laboratory.

"Xu Yuan, why are you here so quickly?"

Ding Wei walked to a place twenty or thirty centimeters away from Xu Yun and stopped, before saying hello, he asked a question.

Xu Yun, who knew Ding Wei's character well, naturally didn't care about this.

"Professor Ding Yuanzhou, thank you for your hard work."

With a smile on his face, he greeted the two of them respectively, and then turned his head to answer Ding Wei's inquiry.

"I heard there's good news here in the laboratory, so I thought I'd come over and have a look."

"We have just confirmed the direction right now. I originally wanted to wait until all the results are sorted out before making an official announcement." Ding Wei sighed and replied.

Zhou Lihua, who was next to her, also took up the conversation and echoed: "Our project has indeed made breakthrough progress, but it may still take some time to perfect." From the words, it seems that they are cooperating on research and development this time.

Xu Yun knew that Ding Wei was mainly responsible for cancer treatment, while Zhou Lihua led the team to research genetic engineering.

Judging from the conversation between the two, it was obvious that they were working on the same project.

This undoubtedly makes people more curious.

Besides, if you finally come here, you must know the situation.

The thought stayed here, Xu Yun suggested again without any surprise:

"It doesn't matter."

"Then let's go to your office and talk. I'd also like to know the results of your research in the past few years."

"Then come with me, Xu Yuan." Ding Wei no longer hesitated after hearing this.

After saying that, he took the lead and led everyone towards his office.

It is also worth mentioning that although there is a large age gap between Xu Yun and the two of them, he still uses the title from the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering.

Ranking based on scientific research achievements.

Still called academicians.

Meng Songyan and Wang Pengfei both joined the company very early and can be regarded as confidants.

So there is nothing to avoid.

When everyone came to Ding Wei's office and sat down, Ding Wei took off his research clothes and made a pot of tea himself. Then he suddenly spoke seriously about the progress.

"This is the case at Xu Institute. Professor Zhou and I have been studying chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy for the past two years. Although there has been some progress in the process, it has never broken through the existing boundaries."

"Until the laboratory was connected to the Zu Chongzhi No. 3 quantum computer, which allowed us to use quantum computing power to simulate molecules, we finally had some practical results."

Xu Yun, who was sitting on the sofa with a cup of tea, listened to all Ding Wei's words.

While silent, the brain is working rapidly.

He is no stranger to chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy. As the latest method of treating cancer, even ordinary people have learned some information online.

After all, who can guarantee that cancer will not come to their door in their lifetime.

The so-called chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy is different from the way foreign drugs such as surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy attack cancer cells. It uses the body's own immune system for treatment, destroys the enemy from the inside, and can recognize specific protein cell surface receptors. .

If other treatment methods are to prolong the survival time of cancer patients and improve their quality of life as much as possible, then chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy is to try to cure them.

However, this is not a fixed drug, but a customized treatment method.

T cells must first be extracted from the patient's body, and then genetically engineered to modify the cells.

Install a positioning recognition system for it.

Cancer cells can be targeted and attacked.

In this way, when the modified cells are transported back to the patient's body, they will have the effect of killing cancer cells.

But precisely because of the complexity of the treatment process, in addition to the cell modification time which may take up to a month, the cost is also as high as one to two million.

It is unaffordable for ordinary families.

At present, there are similar treatment teams both at home and abroad, but there are still many shortcomings.

There is a high probability that it will end up with a loss of both human and financial resources.

Thinking of these related contents, Xu Yun finally understood why Zhou Lihua also participated in this project. The cooperation between the two of them in joint research and development can indeed complement each other.

As a result, Xu Yun's expectations were raised again. He wanted to know what Ding Wei's breakthrough meant.

“Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy is indeed the most effective way to treat cancer at present, but there are still many problems in terms of preliminary preparation, cost, and cancer types.”

The thought stayed here, Xu Yun answered this sentence in a deep voice, and then handed over the right to speak to Ding Wei.

"Xu Yuan, you are right. These problems are exactly what we want to solve."

Ding Wei nodded in affirmation of this sentence, and then a confident smile appeared on his face.

"In fact, with the help of quantum computers, our laboratory has developed a new chimeric antigen receptor technology. In addition to completing cell modification in a very short time, it can also be used in various types of cancer. The key cost may be only ten times that of the outside world. About one-third.”

After hearing all Ding Wei's words, not only Xu Yun in the office was surprised, but also Meng Songyan and Wang Pengfei next to him had their eyes widened.

What a concept.

If, as Academician Ding said, it can be effective against various types of cancer, this news is simply a so-called life-saving straw for cancer patients.

What's more, they also have family members, and the risk of getting cancer gradually increases as they age.

If there is such a treatment method, I will undoubtedly feel relieved.

Ding Wei did not stop for the next time. It could be said that he told Xu Yun the research results in detail.

To put it simply, Ding Wei's research is equivalent to turning chimeric antigen receptor T cells into an assembly line, from extracting patient cells to completing transformation and then delivering them to patients, making the originally complex process simpler.

This would allow more cancer patients to be treated.

The most important thing is that the cost has dropped sharply to one-tenth of that of the outside world. In the past, one injection of chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy cost one million, but in the future, it may cost 100,000.

In addition, if the cure effect is satisfactory, then imported anti-cancer drugs from overseas may gradually lose their market.

This is absolutely great news for all cancer patients.

Of course, this is just the ideal result of Ding Wei, Zhou Lihua and others, and specific experiments are needed to determine the final effect.

Precisely because the technical research has just been completed and the specific human experiments have not yet entered, Ding Wei said that Xu Yun came too early.

But Xu Yun had to admit that this was indeed news that surprised him.

As long as this technology can be approved for marketing through experiments, it will inevitably attract the attention of the entire medical community.

Deepin Technology Bioscience Research Laboratory has been established for so long, and for the first time, it has come up with such a big deal, which once again proves that it was the right thing for him to build the laboratory regardless of funds.

Although I haven't really seen the results today, I believe it won't be long before this technology is launched.

The entire conversation lasted for nearly an hour, and just when Xu Yun was happy with what he had gained today, he found that the light curtain that had not appeared for a long time automatically appeared in front of him.
