Chapter 125: I asked you to show your face, and you directly became the C position! (Please subscribe)
Many people think that uremic patients will be the same as normal people as long as they continue to undergo dialysis.
Actually not.
Two hours after dialysis ends, a new round of toxins begins to accumulate in the dialysis patient's body.
After 24 hours, dialysis patients will obviously feel gradually fatigued, itchy skin, and lack of energy. This feeling is like the body has accumulated a large amount of fatigue value.
After 36 hours, that is, the night before dialysis, this discomfort will become more serious, and many patients will even be unable to sleep.
Such symptoms occur because toxins accumulate in the human body, and a large amount of water affects the organs in the body.
And now!
This "dialysis replacement needle" from Qingshan Pharmaceutical actually works by removing it in time!
This is definitely a historic breakthrough in the history of dialysis!
After a moment, the quiet conference room suddenly became noisy. A doctor sitting in the front row raised his hand and said excitedly:
"Mr. Zhang Yang, I am Stephen from Melbourne Hospital. I can't wait to mention something. Is that okay?"
Zhang Yang stopped and nodded:
"Yes."
"Thank you!"
"I would like to ask what is the current progress of your company's research and development of this drug? When will it be ready for clinical trials?"
Zhang Yang thought for a while and did not hide anything:
"Currently Our 'dialysis needle' has completed all the work in the laboratory stage and can be applied for clinical trials at any time;
There is just a little problem now, but we will solve it soon! ”
Can I enter a clinical trial at any time? !
After the words fell, gasps of exclamation erupted again in the conference room. Even Stephen, who had just asked the question, was stunned for a moment. He had never expected that Qingshan Pharmaceutical would make such rapid progress!
The surprising progress has completely ignited the enthusiasm of all doctors. Being able to enter clinical trials at any time means that this drug can be directly used for patients!
This is definitely another new topic for all clinicians!
"Mr. Zhang Yang, I am Li Mingren from the National Hospital of Singapore. Can you tell me about the duration of the medicine."
"President Zhang Yang, I am from the Royal Hospital in London, UK..."< br>
The torrent of questions "pounced" on Zhang Yang, completely disrupting his original promotional rhythm.
However, this kind of question-and-answer method can explain most of the mechanisms and effects of the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Injection" clearly. After fifteen minutes, the doctors finally finished asking the questions. , the enthusiasm also dropped slightly.
Seeing this, Zhang Yang looked at the time. There were only five minutes left before the end of the summit. Thinking that he had finished what he should say, he simply said into the microphone:
" Thank you for listening, my sharing ends here.”
“If you are interested in our ‘dialysis needles’, you can always pay attention to our official website, thank you.”
After saying that, Zhang Yang bowed down to thank everyone, and then walked quickly down the booth.
At this moment, I don’t know which doctor in the audience suddenly shouted:
“Mr. Zhang Yang, can you give me your contact information? There are many dialysis patients in our hospital. They need this kind of medicine very much. Can you provide us with some more specific information? I want to take it back and tell them!"
After the first doctor, there were people who immediately agreed.
"Yes, President Zhang Yang, I also hope to leave you a contact information. This 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle' surprised me so much. I want to know more about it!"
"Zhang, I need it too. I have downloaded WeChat. Can I add you to WeChat?"
"Yes, yes, I also have WeChat. Mr. Zhang, let me add you to WeChat!"
>The enthusiasm of the doctors surprised Zhang Yang, but after hesitating for a moment, he walked to the seat on the left where the doctors were. As soon as he took out his phone, he was surrounded by doctors.
"Mr. Zhang, let me scan for you..."
"Mr. Zhang, what is your email address?"
The lively scene made the representatives of major pharmaceutical companies on the side look envious. But apart from envy, from an academic point of view, they could not help but admire Qingshan Pharmaceutical for developing such a drug!
If the effect is as described, it will definitely be an era-changing drug in the field of kidney disease!
Everyone sighed with emotion and looked enviously, but at this moment, a familiar figure suddenly stood up from the second row and slowly walked towards Zhang Yang.
It turned out to be Hans, the vice president of BI!
Everyone was shocked and saw Hans standing quietly on the outside. After the doctors got Zhang Yang’s contact information, he smiled slightly:
"Mr. Zhang Yang, I am Hans from BI Company."
"I am also shocked and deeply interested in your drug. I also want to have your contact information. Can you do it?" ”
Zhang Yang was a little surprised, but nodded after a moment Head:
"Do you have WeChat? If not, I will leave an email address for you..."
Hans's move completely shocked the representatives of the major pharmaceutical companies on the right. You know, BI Company is also an extremely influential company in the field of kidney disease, unexpectedly!
He also took the initiative to ask for Zhang Yang’s WeChat account!
Gan Weiguo, director of West China Hospital, looked at Zhang Yang with a dull look, then at the doctors gathered in a circle, and finally fell on Hans from BI Company.
Suddenly, he remembered that he had asked Zhang Yang if he wanted to participate in the "Kidney Disease Summit"...
"Hey, I just asked you to show your face, but I didn't expect you to go straight to the C position. ”
……
At 5:40 pm, the summit ended with a delay of 10 minutes.
After everyone got Zhang Yang’s contact information, everyone was guided by the host to the restaurant on the 24th floor of the hotel.
According to the arrangement of the organizer, after the summit, all invited guests will have a meal together in the hotel. At the same time, each guest attending the summit will also be provided with accommodation for the night.
Zhang Yang’s plan is to return to Chengdu tomorrow. After dinner with everyone, and seeing that it’s not too late, he will return to his room to change his clothes and explore the city.
The hotel where he stayed for this summit was the Jinmao Grand Hyatt Hotel, which happened to be in the Lujiazui Financial Center. He also wanted to take this opportunity to see the night view of the Huangpu River.
But when he had just changed into casual clothes and was about to go out, a familiar figure appeared at the door of the room.
"Zhang, are you going out for a walk?"
Zhang Yang looked at Friedman in front of him and shrugged:
"Well, I just finished dinner. , ready to go for a walk.”
“Oh, I just want to go for a walk, can we come together?”
Zhang Yang suddenly felt helpless in his heart. Friedman's approach of getting on the pole and following him made him helpless and a little funny.
However, he soon realized that given Friedman’s character, this was most likely for the “Kidney Toxin Clear Dialysis Replacement Injection” that he mentioned at the summit just now.
He didn’t point it out. He looked at Friedman and nodded:
“It’s convenient, but President Friedman, you are not going to dress so formally. Can you watch the Huangpu River with me in your suit?”
Friedman glanced down at his clothes, suddenly showed an awkward smile, and said hurriedly:
"Zhang, my room is downstairs. I will change my clothes and come right away. Just wait for me."
"Okay!"
Friedman ran back quickly He went to his room and quickly changed into a set of casual sportswear.
About five minutes later, he returned to Zhang Yang's room.
But when he knocked on the door again, he suddenly found that there was an extra person in Zhang Yang's room.
"Lucas! Why are you here?!"
Friedman was very surprised when Lucas, the head of GlaxoSmithKline's Asia region, appeared in Zhang Yang's room. He didn't expect that it would only be a short time. Five minutes later, Lucas took advantage of it.
Zhang Yang looked at the surprised Friedman and shook his head helplessly: "Mr. Lucas came just after you left. He also wanted to go out with me, so..."
"I suggest you wait for you, and then we will..."
Friedman looked at Lucas and understood instantly.
The Lucas in front of him was probably the same as himself, and he came here for the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Replacement Injection" from Qingshan Pharmaceutical.
Although there is no conflict between the British market and the American market, it would be inconvenient for him to discuss some details with Zhang Yang when Lucas is present...
Thinking of this, he looked at Lucas unhappily. One glance:
"Lucas, you are so free."
Lucas also knew what Friedman was thinking and coughed slightly:
"Friedman, you are quite leisurely. I have never heard that you like to walk before."
Zhang Yang smiled helplessly and said:
“Let’s go.”
Although Friedman was a little unhappy, he had no choice but to follow, and the three of them walked slowly Being on the bank of the Huangpu River, the breeze is blowing, which is a bit pleasant.
Zhang Yang couldn't help but feel a little curious when he saw the night view of the Magic City. The three of them walked for about ten minutes, and Friedman finally couldn't help but said:
"Zhang, that one you talked about this afternoon." Is Shenduqing Dialysis Injection really that effective? ”
< br>"And, is it really possible to conduct clinical trials?"
Zhang Yang hummed softly and confirmed:
"I am indeed not exaggerating. All the work in the current laboratory stage is Done.”
"If you need to see the animal test data, I can also provide it to you, and... to tell you the truth, we have actually passed the review of the ethics committee and can apply for the first clinical phase at any time."
Get With Zhang Yang's personal confirmation, Friedman's last worry disappeared.
A trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly said:
"Zhang, I definitely believe you. After all, we are all old friends who have cooperated for so long!"
"Let me be blunt, I hope we can cooperate again, just like the new drug 'LivClearX' for treating fatty liver last time, and once again introduce this 'dialysis needle' to the United States!"
< br>
As he spoke, he paused and made some adjustments:
“You may not know that the United States is the second largest kidney disease market in the world.”
“Although our population is only 340 million, we have a full population of 340 million. It is four times less than yours in China, but our number of kidney patients is already the same as yours, reaching 40 million, of which The number of patients analyzed has reached nearly 1 million!”
“So, once this ‘dialysis needle’ is successfully developed, there will definitely be a huge market in the United States!”
Zhang Yang! He was stunned for a moment. He knew that China was the country with the largest number of kidney diseases in the world, but he didn't know that the United States ranked second.
Moreover, as Friedman said, the population of the United States is only 340 million. Under normal circumstances, the number of kidney disease patients should be significantly lower than that of China!
He asked curiously:
"Why is your incidence rate so high?"
"Because..."
Friedman was just about to speak. , suddenly Lucas on Zhang Yang’s right took the lead and said:
"What else could be the reason? How many countries have you seen where you can buy all kinds of painkillers in convenience stores and supermarkets?"
"And it's not just non-steroidal medicines that are over-the-counter. Body' painkillers, even 'opioid' painkillers You can buy them at will. ”
“The most important thing is that each bottle of painkillers is not just ten or twenty pills, any bottle of painkillers is 1,000 pills per bottle, and the price is only a dozen dollars. ”
Zhang Yang was stunned when he heard this.
He knew very well what "non-steroidal" painkillers Lucas was talking about. Aspirin and ibuprofen were "non-steroidal" drugs that had analgesic effects but were not addictive.
"Opioids" are addictive because they contain ingredients such as codeine and morphine. "Meperidine", which is more familiar to the public, is an opioid.
This kind of medicine is not a special disease and cannot be bought from hospitals in China.
But in the United States? !
Can you buy it in convenience stores? Can I still buy in bulk?
Zhang Yang was completely shocked. In China, you have to fill out a form to prescribe compound licorice tablets. In the United States, can even tranquilizers such as pethidine be freely sold?
Friedman didn't take it seriously at all and nodded:
"Yes, this is our national condition in the United States."
Zhang Yang took a deep breath, suddenly attracted by this topic, and said:
"Friedman, I really can't figure out why you need so many painkillers? Will many people really buy them?"
Friedman nodded. At this time, Lucas coughed lightly and said:
"Zhang, let me explain this to you."
"Because your Chinese attitude towards drugs is the strictest in the world, even 'opioid' addictive drugs are included in the strict The scope of drug control is limited, so your citizens have very little exposure to addictive drugs such as painkillers from the beginning."
"Furthermore, in your thousands of years of cultural thinking, if it happens. If you are sick, there must be something wrong somewhere in your body.”
“For example, if you have a sore throat, you will think it is an upper respiratory disease, throat inflammation or pharyngitis, so you will prescribe the right medicine to solve it as soon as possible. The root cause of the virus. "
"But in the United States, in the American mind, if you have a sore throat, just take painkillers to make it go away. "
"Stomach pain? Just keep taking some painkillers to make it stop hurting!"
"Even, I have heard something even more outrageous. If you feel cold in winter, then take painkillers and it will feel numb. It’s fine if it’s not cold!”
“It may be difficult for you to understand, but this is their thinking.”
Zhang Yang was in disbelief. What is this? !
For the first time, he felt that there was such a big gap between people's cognitions, and it even felt a bit unreal.
After a moment, he looked at Friedman aside, as if asking Lucas if what he said was true?
Friedman snorted:
“Yes, what Lucas said is true. In our country, painkillers are indeed very common, whether it is headache, brain fever or abdominal pain and broken legs. , what everyone wants is to take painkillers as soon as possible.”
“But there is one thing that Lucas didn’t explain clearly, which caused this. Another reason is that our community hospitals and public hospitals have to wait in line for at least half a month to see a doctor. It is impossible for him to continue to be in pain while waiting, right? So it is normal to take some painkillers. "< br>
“Gradually, everyone develops the habit of taking painkillers whenever they have a headache or brain fever.”
"This is just like what you Chinese say about 'drinking more hot water.'"
"Of course, this phenomenon is only for the lower class people in the United States. If there are private doctors or the middle class who can go to private hospitals, they I don’t take a lot of painkillers.”
Zhang Yang’s hair stood up on hearing this. With his Chinese way of thinking, he would never have imagined that Americans’ treatment method is to take painkillers? !
After a moment, he took a deep breath and asked:
"So it is because ordinary people take excessive amounts of painkillers that so many Americans develop kidney disease?"
Friedman nodded.
"Then you don't care?"
"No care?"
Friedman looked surprised:
"Everyone's life is I chose it myself, and..."
"If they don't get sick, how can we make money from our medicine?"
