Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System-Chapter 432: I Donate 100 Billion for Free
Due to the gravity of the situation, the vehicle carrying Fang Jueyu sped through green lights, reaching Jiangnan City’s First People’s Hospital in less than twenty minutes. The hospital’s leadership and experts were already waiting for him in the conference room.
When they initially received the doctor’s notification, they were skeptical. Academic research and clinical treatment are two entirely different matters, with differing timeliness and urgency. Taking a year or two to conduct research and write papers is quite normal, but the pandemic brooked no delay.
Fang Jueyu, a young man in his early twenties, had been vacationing in Africa just a few days ago. Now, upon return, he brazenly claimed to have the formula for a special medicine already. Could this be possible? What a global joke!
However, many young staff members in the hospital were fans of Fang Jueyu. Just minutes ago, someone had filmed a video of Fang Jueyu completely curing a critically ill patient, and it was uploaded online. In just twenty minutes, the video surpassed ten million views!
A virus that had left a group of experts helpless, and Fang Jueyu cured it in just five minutes. This method was nothing short of miraculous, sufficient to convince them that Fang Jueyu had the capability to resolve this virus.
"Academician Fang, I am Qian Yongkang, the president of Jiangnan City’s First People’s Hospital." President Qian extended his hand to shake with Fang Jueyu.
"Let’s go directly to the meeting room!" Fang Jueyu had no time for pleasantries with these doctors, deciding to skip the formalities as wasting even a single minute could mean another person getting infected.
"Alright!" Qian Yongkang also understood that this was not the time for formalities. "Academician Fang, all the leaders of Jiangnan City are here, waiting in the conference room."
"Great, how is the situation now?" Fang Jueyu asked.
"The situation is not optimistic," the president said. "Although there are only over twenty confirmed cases, hundreds of suspected patients are waiting for observation in the hospital’s isolation wards. Our medical capacity is becoming insufficient."
"What happened?"
"There is no way around it, the burden is just too heavy. We have limited healthcare staff, and the number of beds is also limited. The hospital has even set up temporary tents to accommodate patients, and the equipment is stretched thin, preventing many patients from receiving timely treatment."
"Can’t we transfer patients from other places or distribute some patients elsewhere?"
"There’s not much difference between other hospitals and here. Either they’ve reached their maximum capacity, or their medical standards aren’t sufficient to cope."
"This is truly serious," Fang Jueyu felt immensely burdened. The entire continent of Asia was in chaos, and Huaxia, being a populous nation, faced the most severe situation and was showing trends of spreading to other continents.
"We’re here!" Qian Yongkang opened the door, finding many leaders and experts already waiting in the conference room. freeweɓnøvel.com
"Academician Fang!" Everyone stood up.
"From now on, I will lead the situation in Jiangnan City. Are there any objections?" Fang Jueyu took out a red certificate handed to him by a higher-up in the past, which granted him significant privileges in emergencies.
Everyone who saw this certificate immediately stood upright. They recognized it, understanding it could not be obtained casually and was only for those who had made outstanding contributions.
"We will fully follow Academician Fang’s command!" Everyone said in unison.
In terms of status, Fang Jueyu was an accredited academician, superior to the experts here. From a capability standpoint, having just cured a seriously ill patient, he was qualified to lead them.
"Excellent!" Fang Jueyu stepped up to the podium and opened his computer. The information compiled by Xiao Yi had already been sent to his personal email, containing all the details about the virus and the special medicine formula.
"What you’re looking at now is the specific information on this mutated virus!" Fang Jueyu opened the files. "I performed a complete genomic comparison of this novel coronavirus with the SARS coronavirus and the ’Middle East Respiratory Syndrome’ MERS coronavirus."
"You see," Fang Jueyu opened a set of data, "finding an average sequence similarity of 70% and 40%, respectively. There is greater variability in the key spike gene that allows these different coronaviruses to act upon host cells."
"Analyzing its genetic material, this novel coronavirus shares a common ancestor with the SARS-like coronavirus, which is similar to the HKU9-1 virus, and its natural host is likely bats!"
"That’s right!" A leader stood up and said. "According to reports from the outbreak epicenter, there is a large seafood market near where the earliest patient lived, where we found vendors selling wild animals, including bats!"
This hypothesis had been around for a week, but lacked strong data to confirm it. Yet Fang Jueyu displayed the most accurate data seemingly out of nowhere!
"Snap!" Fang Jueyu snapped his fingers. "So, our first step is to completely isolate this virus from its source!"
"Alright, leave that to me. I’ll handle it immediately, thoroughly investigating all wildlife vendors in Jiangnan City."
"Yes!" Fang Jueyu nodded. "Now, we only need to address two issues: how to treat infected patients and how to prevent healthy individuals from getting infected."
Fang Jueyu opened a second document containing the formulas of three medications: a special medicine for patients, a vaccine for susceptible populations, and a spray designed to eradicate airborne residual viruses.
He spent nearly two hours explaining the components and mechanisms of these medications to the experts. The era allowed for the synthesis of these medicines, and their processes weren’t overly complex.
"Incredible!" An expert who had been dumbfounded throughout finally spoke. Fang Jueyu’s explanations were clear, and ideas innovative. Although these medicines had not undergone clinical trials, Fang Jueyu had somehow used supercomputers to simulate human clinical trials.
The result achieved a 100% cure rate!
"Great, I will immediately apply for funding from the higher-ups to fully produce this vaccine, the special medicine, and the antiviral spray!"
"No, we don’t have the time. Production must commence immediately," Fang Jueyu insisted with a non-negotiable tone. Various complex procedures, even in such special times, would still require a day or two.
"But Academician Fang, we lack sufficient funds. The production scale of this batch of medicine is too large. The pharmaceutical companies we need to partner with can’t initially invest this much money as upfront costs. They’re still businessmen at heart."
"I understand!" Fang Jueyu replied, "I will personally donate 100 billion with no strings attached to begin mass production of this vaccine immediately. Once the first clinical trial is completed, large-scale distribution can begin to avoid any delays."
"You..." They had not expected Fang Jueyu to donate such a huge amount without hesitation!
"What? Is there an issue? Tell them, if they’re unwilling to produce even when given funds, I’ll buy out their pharmaceutical companies and manufacture it myself!"
"No problem!" All the leaders in the conference room stood up and bowed to Fang Jueyu. "Academician Fang, on behalf of all patients in Jiangnan City and across the nation, we thank you for your generosity!"
