"'The Lancet'? Cover?"
Jiang Hao, Lei Jun, and Guan Yifan were very surprised when they heard Lin Jie's students excitedly shouting.
They knew very well that as an internationally renowned, authoritative academic weekly in the dical field, "The Lancet" magazine does not cover a person on every issue.
Issues with cover personalities only appear three or four tis a year at most.
The people who have the honor of being on the cover are either those who have made outstanding contributions and are recognized by the global dical community as major figures, or those who have made groundbreaking achievents that are enough to cause a sensation in the entire dical field.
"Let take a look!"
An impatient Jiang Hao took the phone from Gao Yanhong and saw the electronic journal cover displayed on the screen.
The first thing that caught his eye was a half-length portrait of Lin Jie.
He looked calmly into the distance, and his deep, pool-like black eyes seed to hold infinite mysteries.
Seeing those familiar English letters "THE LANCET," Jiang Hao, full of envy, opened the journal, entered the table of contents, and then opened the first paper.
The foreword was written by the Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Ariel Skeller.
In her foreword, she wrote about sending a friend to China, Binhai, to receive treatnt from Dr. Lin Jie and discovered, to her amazent, that Dr. Lin Jie was experinting with a new thod to treat malignant tumors.
She was extrely excited to find that this new experintal therapy hosted by Dr. Lin had already achieved breakthrough results in treating intraspinal malignant tumors.
To benefit more patients, at her request, Dr. Lin specifically consolidated this interim result to provide it to practitioners worldwide for discussion and validation.
Skeller wrote: "In China, many people call Dr. Lin Jie the 'Child of Miracles,' because he always achieves what others cannot, creates miracles, and saves lives."
"In my eyes, this title is well-deserved for Dr. Lin."
"Objectively speaking, the experintal therapy hosted by Dr. Lin, which induces control over tumor growth, still essentially belongs to a controlling treatnt for tumors, rather than a curative one."
"However, reaching a certain limit where malignant tumor patients achieve survival periods beyond the average lifespan can be considered a complete cure in a certain sense."
"In conversation with Dr. Lin, he confidently told that the experintal therapy he is leading has particularly significant effects on controlling and treating intraspinal and brain tumors, especially those that have relapsed for the second ti."
"Currently, the ambitious Dr. Lin is conducting trial treatnts on over forty patients with various kinds of solid malignant tumors, confidently telling that his experintal therapy has yielded quite good expected results."
"We look forward to seeing more miracles created by Dr. Lin in the near future."
Jiang Hao quickly skimd through the paper written by Lin Jie and couldn't help exclaiming, "Expert Lin, you've already shocked China, and now you're starting to amaze the whole world from today."
"Of course, my teacher is super invincible."
Gao Yanhong said with admiration, "This article is just the first shock. I suppose it won't be long before another research result from my teacher is published, shocking the world once again."
"Expert Lin, have you made another major discovery?"
Seeing the surprised and inquisitive looks from Jiang Hao, Lei Jun, and Guan Yifan, Lin Jie said sowhat sheepishly, "I made a small discovery unintentionally."
"But it requires further experints to collect data."
Lei Jun lanted, "It truly is infuriating to compare oneself to others."
"Expert Lin can casually make a discovery that astonishes the world. It's tougher than ascending to heaven for to just make waves in Binhai!"
Guan Yifan also sighed deeply and said, "Dr. Jiang, Dr. Lei, this is the most direct difference between a talented genius like them and us regular competitors."
"We need to face reality and stop thinking about what's beyond our reach."
Seeing Lei Jun and Jiang Hao nodding vigorously in agreent, Lin Jie chuckled, pointed at the three of them, and said, "You three are already notable figures, so don't mislead my students."
"Don't attribute your current state, due to your laziness and lack of effort early on, to the vague concept of talent."
Lin Jie suddenly rembered a piece of motivational content he'd read a few days ago and felt like giving a lecture.
He said to Gao Yanhong, Ma Hongmin, Zeng Yang, Zhao Fang, and others, "So-called talent may determine a person's upper limit, but the effort made by the Chinese is far from reaching the point where talent must be the deciding factor."
"There's a formula, 1.01 to the power of 365 is approximately 37.8, while 0.99 to the power of 365 is approximately 0.03."
"This tells us..."
Ma Hongmin excitedly continued Lin Jie's sentence, "Efforting a little more each day can take you a thousand miles; slacking a bit will lead you into the abyss. Teacher, we all know this inspirational nurical formula."
"But teacher, this formula isn't very convincing."
"Why must it be an exponential function? Why not see it as 1.01 or 0.99 multiplied by 365, where the resulting difference isn't much?"
Lin Jie was annoyed. Wasn't this undermining him?
He glared at Ma Hongmin and continued, "Here's another formula: 1.02 to the power of 365 is approximately 1377.4."
"This shows that soone who exerts just a little more effort than you, after accumulation over ti, leaves you far behind."
The knowing Ma Hongmin quickly agreed, "Teacher, you're absolutely right."
"Take an example from around us: previously, the most outstanding one was the self-proclaid extraordinary Yu Jingsheng. But now, he's been overtaken by Senior Brother Zeng and others by far."
Zeng Yang resisted the urge to cover his head and softly reminded, "Ma Hongmin, the main reason we've made such rapid progress is due to our teacher's ticulous and personalized guidance. Our diligence plays a smaller part."
"Honestly, Yu Jingsheng's level of diligence is not less than ours."
Ma Hongmin looked distressed and said, "Sorry, Teacher, I got too excited and wanted to show off in front of you, so I kept saying the wrong things."
"I'm not going to talk anymore."
After saying this, she covered her mouth and hid behind Gao Yanhong.
Lin Jie shook his head, looked at Gao Yanhong, and instructed, "Gao Yanhong, I need to perform a surgery tomorrow, reconstructing fragnted bones. Conduct an experint tonight and see if you can find a specific way to accelerate bone healing."
Gao Yanhong imdiately gave a salute and loudly replied, "Yes, teacher, I promise to complete the task!"
Lin Jie rolled his eyes, waved dismissively, and said, "Get back to whatever you all should be doing!"
After sending the students away, he said to Jiang Hao, Lei Jun, and Guan Yifan, "Let's go, I'll go with you to see that unlucky kid with most of his face blown up."
The three of them walked towards the inpatient ward with Lin Jie.
Jiang Hao laughed lightly and said, "Expert Lin, the relationship between you and your students makes us envious."
Lin Jie shook his head and sighed softly, "Not like before."
"In the past, these guys had so awe for , you could say they did whatever I told them, but recently they've beco more unruly, it's becoming more and more outrageous..."
Arriving at the intensive care unit of the inpatient building, Lin Jie personally checked the terrifying facial injuries of the unlucky child.
Upon learning that Lin Jie was going to take over the child's treatnt, the child's parents were so moved that they cried tears of joy and repeatedly expressed their gratitude.
"Don't have too high expectations!"
Lin Jie reminded, "The child's injuries are too severe! The left eye definitely cannot be saved; in the future, a prosthetic eye will be needed. If the olfactory function of the nose can recover 20%, that would be considered good."
"Also, the hearing function in the left ear will likely suffer a great loss. The tongue will also be mostly damaged, affecting the child's normal speech."
"Furthermore, the recovery from the surgery is not a one-ti thing."
"This might take one to two years, involving dozens of surgeries. It will be an extrely painful ordeal for the child and a trendous tornt for you as well."
The child's father looked at the child lying in the intensive care unit and said, "Expert Lin, we understand this outco. For us now, as long as the child can live and be with us, we are satisfied."
"Expert Lin, please do your utmost..."
The child's debrident surgery was led by Guan Yifan.
anwhile, Lin Jie occasionally took congratulatory calls and exchanged pleasantries with those who ca to offer their congratulations.
After receiving more than a dozen congratulatory calls, Lin Jie beca sowhat overwheld, simply turned off his phone, left the hospital, and returned directly to Xiangtai Apartnt.
Upon returning ho, Lin Jie happened to catch the ti to have dinner with Lin Miao, An Kexin, and An Keng.
Halfway through dinner, Lin Miao asked with a hint, "Brother, don't you feel that the house has beco much quieter?"
Lin Jie shook his head and said, "I don't feel it's quieter. In the past, it was just you and having dinner together."
Lin Miao was left speechless, pouting, "Brother, you also said that was in the past."
"Xiaoxiao and Nannan went to the United States, and Yuanyuan is often not at ho, I always feel the house suddenly turned quiet."
She then smiled and said, "Brother, Kexin, after you get married, hurry up and have a baby."
"With a little baby at ho, it will be lively."
Lin Jie glanced at An Kexin and lightly laughed, "Having children is not sothing to rush, it should happen naturally..."
Just then, An Kexin's phone rang.
She picked it up and looked at it, puzzled, "It's a call from Maxwell in the United States!"
An Kexin answered a couple of sentences and then handed the phone to Lin Jie, saying, "It's for you; they said your phone was off!"
Lin Jie responded with an "Oh," took the phone, and said, "Hello, Dr. Maxwell!"
"Dr. Lin, congratulations! I thoroughly studied your paper and congrats on achieving another significant, impactful, groundbreaking accomplishnt."
Lin Jie replied politely, "Thank you for the recognition! However, this experintal therapy still needs more cases for validation."
"Dr. Lin, your explanation in the paper of the experintal thod of inducing tumor growth by pushing forward and pulling back can be said to open a new therapeutic approach for tumor treatnt and control."
"Dr. Lin, I happen to have two patients with recurrent brain tumors, their treatnt has been troubling ."
Maxwell asked tentatively over the phone, "Dr. Lin, I also want to try your experintal new therapy, but I'm not sure about the inducer you developed?"
Lin Jie laughed and said, "Being able to personally validate this experintal therapy is my honor. However, the inducer is still in the experintal phase, cannot be mass-produced, and the cost is sowhat high!"
Maxwell responded cheerfully over the phone, "High research cost is natural. Dr. Lin, just na your price!"
Lin Jie thought for a mont and resolutely said, "One vial, ten thousand..."
"Only ten thousand US dollars? Expert Lin, I'll reserve fifty vials first; please give an account number, I'll transfer the funds to you now!"
Lin Jie was taken aback.
He originally intended to say ten thousand RMB.
After all, Zhou Ziyan told him that the production cost of the low-spec version of the inducer was around five hundred RMB.
Raising the price by twenty tis, Lin Jie thought he was being quite greedy, but unexpectedly Maxwell considered it at ten thousand US dollars, and even used the word "only."
This indeed was absolute profiteering.
