Chapter 429: Famous doctors gather in Magic City, the first brain-computer interface is ready to be

The next day, early in the morning.

Since the Dragon Kingdom has entered winter, the weather in Shen City has become extremely cold.

Although it is not as cold as the north, the coldness in the south does not lie in the low temperature, but in the chill brought by the breeze, blowing on the face, like a knife cutting flesh.

Shenzhen International Airport.

VIP waiting room.

Jiang Ce, who is only 1.65 meters tall, is overall thin and has a pot head. He looks like a junior high school student and looks around as if he is looking for something.

"This way."

Chen Xing raised his hand to signal.

Jiang Ce looked at the raised arms and immediately trotted closer. He came to sit next to Chen Xing and said, "President, where are we going?"

In the early hours of last night, he had fallen asleep when he suddenly received a call from Chen Xing, telling him to pack up early tomorrow morning and follow him on a business trip to the Magic City. He had very important things to do.

Jiang Ce didn't ask carefully what was going on, but since it was Chen Xing who called in person, he couldn't say no, after all, he was his boss.

If he could ask him to go on a business trip, he expected it to be about the GIANT PANDA bank settlement system. He expected to attend some seminar. Jiang Ce didn't think too much about it. He hung up the phone, set an alarm clock, and continued to sleep.

"Have you had breakfast?" Chen Xing did not answer him, but asked if he had eaten.

People are like iron, and food is like steel. Since it only takes two or three hours to fly to Shanghai, meals are not provided on the plane. However, even if meals are provided, few people will eat them because the taste of air meals is too bad. Strange.

"not yet."

Jiang Ce answered honestly.

"Let's go eat first. There's a cafeteria over there. Grab whatever you want and come back when you're full." Chen Xing reminded as he looked at the entrance to the cafeteria on one side.

Since I booked first class, the food in the cafeteria is free. Although it is said to be free, in fact, the cost of the meal has been included in the ticket price, and there will not be anything expensive in these cafeterias. Even if they are open to eat, At most, it only costs a few hundred yuan, and it is a business that is sure to make money without losing money.

"It's okay if you don't eat for one or two meals. President, what are we going to do in the Demon City?"

Jiang Ce asked again.

"Go get something to eat. You'll know when we get there." Chen Xing played it safe and didn't say anything about the brain-computer interface.

He has been dealing with Jiang Ce for so long, and he knows that this boy's character is timid, greedy and lustful. If he told him that he would perform a craniotomy later, he would probably be scared to the point of weakness, so he would simply hide it in advance.

After seeing off Jack Ma, Zhou Hongwei, Li Yanhong and Huang Renxun last night, Chen Xing made a special call to Li Ge.

Originally, Li Ge wanted to fly to Shenzhen to discuss with Chen Xing the use of Longxing Group as an endorsement to recruit brain-computer interface volunteers.

However, after learning about Li Ge's idea, Chen Xing immediately thought of the candidate, and that was Jiang Ce, who was suffering from ALS.

Even though Jiang Ce can walk and talk now, just like a normal person, his condition has reached a very serious stage. He used to go to the hospital for treatment once a month, but now he goes to the hospital once every three days. Recently, the doctor even It is recommended to treat once every two days.

This is because the neurotoxin is about to cover the entire brain neural network. Once infected, the heart, limbs, and organs will immediately enter a state of failure.

to be honest.

Now Jiang Ce is relying on medicine to barely enter a state of recovery.

Once the treatment or suppressive drugs are stopped, he will probably not be able to talk, not to mention walking.

When he recruited Jiang Ce, Chen Xing promised to cure him, and the system also provided a brain-computer interface plan. Now that his condition could no longer be delayed, Chen Xing could only choose to take a gamble.

"Okay, then I'll go get something to eat." Jiang Ce couldn't resist Chen Xing, so he put down his backpack and walked to the cafeteria.

"Go ahead."

Chen Xing nodded slightly.

After Jiang Ce turned around and left, Chen Xing looked at his back and read the panel silently.

【Name】: Jiang Ce

[Type]: Network technical talents

[Qualification]: Red

[Character]: Introverted (because of his low self-esteem and introversion, the Internet is everything to him, and network technology has improved significantly.)

[Main areas of focus]: Computer network technology, software design and programming, virus writing...

【Loyalty】: 97

[Monthly salary]: 200,000

[Special entry]: Network giant (Reality is submissive, the network attacks hard, logical thinking, concentration, and intelligence will be greatly improved when performing computer network behaviors such as software programming, network attack and defense, etc.)

[Special condition]: ALS (motor neuron disease, the cause of ALS is still unclear. The current life expectancy is only 3 days. Timely treatment is required in the hospital to slow down the speed of neuron disease.)

[Cure Plan]: Implant a brain-computer interface to continuously activate motor neurons and inhibit the spread of neurotoxins.

"Are there only 3 days left?"

Chen Xing murmured to himself.

When he was first recruited, Jiang Ce's life expectancy was shown to be 20 days. He spent money on treatment and survived for more than a year.

With only 3 days left, he could no longer imagine how serious it was.

As for the red quality, Jiang Ce is also the first talent who has been promoted from gold quality to red quality since Chen Xing's current contact.

"Hope it goes well."

Chen Xing didn't want to lose Jiang Ce.

And at the same time.

the other side.

At the Ruijin Hospital in the capital city, a group of experts in the field of brain neural networks have gathered in the seminar room and are discussing the surgery.

"This is the first case of brain-computer interface implantation. This is no joke. I need a more detailed experimental report."

"As far as I know, this so-called brain-computer interface was developed by WuXi Group and has only been tested on experimental monkeys. In other words, its safety is not guaranteed at all. If someone dies, who will bear the responsibility?"

"Let me state in advance that the reason why I came to the demon overnight was because Dean Qian asked me to do brain surgery, but he didn't say it was a brain-computer interface implant."

"I'm afraid this requires long-term planning."

The risks of brain-computer interface are huge. Even the medical giants from Ruijin Hospital dare not try it easily, and their words are hesitant.

Perhaps many people don’t know the importance of Ruijin Hospital in Shanghai.

Let's put it this way, if there is a ranking of Longguo Hospital, except for the undisputed Xiehe and Huaxi, Ruijin will be the top three.

The "Ruijin Formula" that guides the repair of large-area burns comes from the medical giant Ruijin Hospital. This hospital not only has extremely high knowledge in burn treatment, but its neurology department is also a key national support project.

The doctors gathered in the conference room at this time were not only doctors from Ruijin Hospital, but also doctors from Xiehe and Huaxi. It can be said that a group of heroes gathered together.

While the doctors were arguing endlessly, Qian Qiuliang, the director of the School of Neurology of Ruijin Hospital, knocked on the table slowly, reminding people to be quiet, and said in a deep voice:

"I have read the experimental data and research and development reports of the brain-computer interface. It has indeed entered the stage of human implantation. Moreover, this operation is not difficult, so there is no need to worry about taking responsibility."

"Implantation is indeed not difficult, but there is no way to guarantee whether this thing will be rejected by the human body. Once rejection occurs, the person may be dead in an instant."

Someone immediately refuted it, and the refutation was none other than Chen Guoqiang, director and vice president of West China Neurosurgery.

"Dean Chen is right. It is easy to implant, but difficult to remove. Once rejection occurs during the process, even if the person survives, the brain will be severely damaged, ranging from a vegetative state to brain death." Wu, director of the Union Neurosurgery Department, said Shi agreed.

They were all "cheated". No one expected that the minor surgery Qian Qiuliang mentioned was to implant a brain-computer interface. They thought it was a flying knife surgery, but it turned out to be a complete surgery.

Perhaps many people have never been exposed to flying knives and do not know the significance of its existence.

The so-called flying knife doctors are doctors who openly collect money from patients and come from thousands of miles away to act as foreign aid.

Why is foreign aid needed?

It's very simple, medical resources are imbalanced!

If city-level hospitals take it for granted and commonplace surgeries are placed in county-level hospitals, county-level doctors may not be able to perform them.

In this case, the patient has two options.

1 is to transfer to another hospital immediately.

2 is to hire a flying knife doctor.

If the patient is being transferred to another hospital, one must also consider whether the patient can withstand the bumps on the road. If the patient's life is hanging by a thread and suddenly travels a long distance at this time, there is a high probability that he will die of illness on the way.

In order to solve this problem, some people have found another way to let top doctors from city hospitals or provincial hospitals come to county hospitals to perform surgeries instead. This has led to the spin-off profession of flying knife doctor.

Of course.

Not all doctors can throw knives.

Only doctors who are recognized by the patient and have authority can perform the surgery, and this also involves personal connections.

If you have money but no connections, you will most likely not be able to hire Dr. Flying Knife.

Chen Guoqiang and Wu Shi belong to Feidao doctors and are also doctoral supervisors of Longguo Neurology. They are only one step away from being able to touch the academicians.

"Just sign the liability exemption agreement. Mr. Li from WuXi Group is waiting outside now. How about letting him in for a chat?"

Qian Qiuliang tried again.

In the field of neurosurgery, he really needed Chen Guoqiang and Wu Shi, otherwise he would not have coaxed them here.

In fact, he also has selfish motives.

Li Ge came to him last night, hoping to arrange a brain-computer interface human implant surgery.

The concept of brain-computer interface is familiar to doctors in the field of neurology. It is said to be the best way to cure neurological diseases.

If Ruijin Hospital can complete Dragon Kingdom...

No!

With the world's first human implant, the reputation of Ruijin Hospital will completely skyrocket, and Qian Qiuliang's reputation and status will also rise!

What are people doing in this life?

Twelve words can be summarized as coveting pleasure, glory, wealth, fame and status.

When you have no money, you want money. When you have money, you want to eat and drink women. When you are tired of eating and drinking women, you will chase fame and status.

Qian Qiuliang didn't ask for much. He only asked for some space for him in the history books, just three words "Qian Qiuliang".

"Can."

"Let him come in and talk."

Wu Shi and Chen Guoqiang expressed their opinions one after another.

In fact, when a special plane came to pick them up from the Demon City last night, the two of them noticed something unusual, but they didn't think about the field of brain-computer interface.

Now everything is connected in series, and they finally know why a plane came overnight to pick them up from the Magic City, why Qian Qiuliang is so interested, and why Ruijin Hospital can offer 400,000 for flying knife. It turns out that it is "chasing fame and position" "That's how much money was spent.

"Ahem."

Qian Qiuliang coughed twice and winked.

The next second.

The doctor sitting at the end on the right stood up.

Although he is also a master of neurology and is always a guest in municipal hospitals, he is still a little guy in front of the real masters.

He quickly walked out of the door, came to the conference room next door and reminded: "Mr. Li, our dean calls you over."

"good!"

Li Ge quickly stood up with the information.

I saw him follow him to the door of the seminar room, looking at the "living documents" on the table, he said respectfully: "Dear deans, the director has long admired me. I am Li Ge, the chairman of WuXi Group, and I am also the brain-computer interface for this time. The sponsor of the implant, please give me some advice.”

"come in."

Qian Qiuliang nodded slightly.

When Li Ge walked into the seminar room, he continued: "Tell me about your product, Mr. Li. Director Wu and Director Chen are both curious."

Chen Guoqiang and Wu Shi were not unhappy when they were named. They were really curious about the brain-computer interface and how to operate it.

"Then I will show my shame. Please forgive me if there is anything unprofessional."

After being humble and polite, Li Ge inserted the portable hard drive into the computer in the seminar room, and then projected the image onto the OLED screen behind Qian Qiuliang through image data transmission.

Qian Qiuliang turned sideways and looked back at the scientific research data on the brain-computer interface.

At this time, the appearance of the brain-computer interface and the internal anatomy diagram appeared on the screen, which can be said to be clear at a glance.

"As you can see, this is the whole picture of our brain-computer interface. Its outermost soft silicone is PDMS polydimethylsiloxane, which has good biocompatibility, flexibility and micro-machining process compatibility. Adapting to the curved topology of the brain should be familiar to everyone.”

PDMS polydimethylsiloxane is often used in neurosurgery, and the doctors present are not surprised because this material is one of the few soft silicone materials that can deceive the human body and not cause rejection.

All the doctors were listening attentively. Chen Guoqiang, Wu Shi, and Qian Qiuliang were all very alert and did not dare to miss a single detail.

"Wrapped in PDMS polydimethylsiloxane, there are four parts that make up the brain-computer interface, namely the signal acquisition part, the signal processing part, the control equipment part and the feedback link part."

"The signal acquisition part is the most basic device of the brain-computer interface system. It is responsible for reading and deciphering brain signals from the brain and obtaining the response curve of brain cells to consciousness."

"Then how to obtain the consciousness response curve?"

Li Ge asked the question and then answered it himself: "This requires inserting 24 electrode filaments of the brain-computer interface into the cortex of the brain. This requires very strict accuracy. It requires not only the assistance of R1 robotic equipment, but also surgery. Doctor’s excellent judgment.”

Since it was a human implant and life safety was at stake, he moved the R1 robotic equipment to Ruijin Hospital overnight.

After all, humans are experimental monkeys. If they were experimental monkeys, there would be no need for such trouble. If they die during the implantation stage, just replace them with another one, but humans are not experimental consumables after all.

"etc."

At this time, Wu Shi raised his hand and interrupted Li Ge: "With the assistance of R1 robot equipment, this means that these 24 electrode filaments are not simply implanted in the cerebral cortex?"

"Yes." Li Ge nodded and continued: "We need to inject 24 electrode filaments into the gray matter layer without touching any arteries and blood vessels in the brain."

"I see."

Wu Shi suddenly realized.

At first, he thought that implanting a brain-computer interface would be a simple implant, but he did not expect that arteries and blood vessels would have to be avoided.

Chen Guoqiang silently wrote it down.

As a neurosurgeon, he has opened not 10,000 skulls, but 8,000. He knows best what the brain is like.

The so-called gray matter layer is the cortex below the brain gap. There are a large number of neurons in it, which control all activities of the human body.

For example, when blinking, the moment before the human body blinks, the neurons in the relevant control areas of the gray matter layer of the brain will send out neural signals. If converted into computer language, they will be expressed as 0 and 1.

Seeing that no one asked any more questions, Li Ge continued: "According to thousands of repeated experiments in our laboratory, the top of the telencephalon, that is, this position can activate the entire gray matter layer to the greatest extent and intervene in the central nervous system."

While speaking, he pressed the remote control and the OLED screen switched to the top left area above his head.

Chen Guoqiang, Wu Shi, and Qian Qiuliang silently took notes again. They did not need to take too many notes because they still had their own understanding of the divisions of the brain.

"Implantation and principles, our brain-computer interface still has three parts, but due to patent issues, I won't go into details here. If you are interested, you can chat privately at that time."

Li Ge did not finish the four parts, because even if he did, these neurology doctors might not understand.

Although medical drugs and equipment and clinical medicine are both medical fields, they are just like computer programming and computer maintenance. They are close relatives, but they are by no means the same thing.

For those who research drugs and devices, if you ask them to treat diseases clinically, it is equivalent to finding a half-baked operation to perform surgery on you. If it is cured, it will be a miracle, and if it is cured, it will be normal.

The same is true for clinical medicine. They only know how to treat diseases, but they don't know how drugs and medical devices are designed and manufactured. They are laymen.

"How about it?"

Qian Qiuliang looked at Chen Guoqiang and Wu Shi.

He now wants two people to take charge of the operation, and then he will do the work for the deputy.

Of course.

If successful, the fame will be his.

Wu Shi and Chen Guoqiang looked at each other, and the latter was the first to express his position: "Okay, with the assistance of the R1 robot, you can give it a try, but I have a condition, Dean Qian."

"What conditions?"

"Publish my name."

"this…"

Qian Qiuliang hesitated.

But less than three seconds passed before he agreed and said, "No problem, but if I say something ugly earlier, if something goes wrong, you have to take responsibility."

"nature."

Chen Guoqiang nodded. Since he wants to pursue fame and status, he must take corresponding risks.

"Since Director Chen has agreed, then I will risk my life to accompany you." Wu Shi also expressed his stance.

The two may not be the best neurologists in the Dragon Kingdom, but they are among the best neurosurgeons.

What is surgery?

All surgeries require a surgeon.

If Qian Qiuliang was ten years younger, he would definitely not call Chen Guoqiang and Wu Shilai, but there was nothing he could do about it. As he got older, his hands were shaking unconsciously.

Shaking hands is a very common thing for ordinary people.

But for doctors, especially neurosurgeons, if their hands shake when holding a scalpel and they inadvertently cut something, it is an extremely serious medical accident.

When a surgeon's hands tremble, it means that he is not suitable for surgery and can only serve as a deputy to guide and provide experience and help.

At noon.

Modu International Airport.

As the direct flight from Shenzhen landed, Chen Xing first took Jiang Ce to have a meal, and then went straight to Ruijin Hospital.

As soon as the vehicle arrived at the door, Li Ge, who had been waiting for a long time, hurried forward.

"Mr. Chen, I haven't seen you for a day, it feels like three autumns since I last saw you." Li Ge just finished his words and continued: "Let me introduce to you, this is Qian, the director of neurology and president of Ruijin Hospital. Dr. Qiu Liang.”

"Dean Qian."

Chen Xing took the initiative to extend his hand.

"I have admired Mr. Chen for a long time, but I didn't expect that the distinguished guest mentioned by Mr. Li was actually you. It's really disappointing to welcome him from afar." Qian Qiu Liang said happily.

However, he does know Chen Xing, or in other words, in the current Long Kingdom, except for people in areas with lagging information, people in other areas basically know Chen Xing and his Longxing Group.

Chen Xing is also a veteran in the business field. When faced with the other party's overtures, he responded: "Dean Qian is too polite. I am just a businessman, not as good as the angel in white who saves lives and heals the wounded. Besides, this friend of mine is waiting for you." Help."

"oh?"

Qian Qiuliang looked at Jiang Ce and asked, "Is this little brother the target of brain-computer interface implantation?"

"That's right."

Chen Xing nodded.

When the two of them talked, Jiang Ce also realized that Chen Xing did not take him on a business trip, but brought him to the Magic City for surgery!

"This...what is a brain-computer interface?"

Jiang Ce asked weakly.

He had actually read related articles, but they were all too scary. They talked about opening a skull and then implanting equipment into the brain. Just thinking about it was scary.

"It's okay, it's a minor surgery, don't worry." Qian Qiuliang saw that Jiang Ce was scared, so he simply coaxed the person onto the operating table.

Chen Xing informed Li Ge before arriving that Jiang Ce's condition was quite special, and the brain-computer interface needed to be rigorous, rigorous, and rigorous.

Judging from this situation, Li Ge should have discussed it with Ruijin Hospital.

"Really?"

Jiang Ce is not a fool, so he doesn't believe it.

The medical conditions in Shencheng are very good, and Chen Xing brought him to Shanghai specifically, which shows that this operation is no small matter.

"Xiao Jiang, are you afraid of death?" Chen Xing looked at Jiang Ce and asked suddenly.

"Afraid."

Jiang Ce answered without hesitation.

Who is not afraid of death?

Those who say they are not afraid of death are just pressed by something more terrifying than death. Who is not afraid of death if they live a happy life?

"It's okay to be afraid." Chen Xing smiled and told the truth: "Your attending doctor in Shencheng has told me that you won't survive this month. The only way now is to receive a brain-computer interface implant. You You may die, or you may be reborn in Nirvana. This is your chance. It’s up to you.”

"..."

Jiang Ce fell silent.

In fact, he also knew that his condition had been getting worse. Now at night, he felt that his limbs were stiff, and he was very afraid that he would never wake up after sleeping.

Anyone who has ever been seriously ill knows that only after being tortured by the illness will you realize that money, women, rights, and status are all just a cloud, and only health is the most important.

"Can this be cured?"

Jiang Ce looked at Chen Xing, still a little timid.

"Yes, as long as the implantation goes smoothly and there are no problems with the brain-computer interface." Chen Xing assured.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen. The brain-computer interface is produced one-to-one according to the data you provided. The packaging material has also been replaced with more advanced PDMS polydimethylsiloxane. The quality is absolutely guaranteed." Li Ge also said With a guaranteed ticket.

"It turns out that the company behind the brain-computer interface is Chen Xing's Longxing Group." Through the conversation, when Qian Qiuliang heard the clues, he couldn't help but stir up waves in his heart.

As far as he knows, Longxing Group has already been involved in semiconductors, information communications, battery energy, fast charging materials and other fields. Now it wants to enter biotechnology?

big mac!

A real giant company!

Such a strong foundation and layout shocked Qian Qiuliang. He couldn't help but look at Chen Xing. How could he be so awesome when he was clearly under thirty years old?

When Qian Qiuliang's heart was in turmoil and he couldn't calm down for a long time, Jiang Ce also made his choice and responded: "Then let me try?"

"but."

Suddenly, he changed the topic and continued: "Before doing the brain-computer interface implantation surgery, I want to call my mother." (End of Chapter)
