Gu Yong noticed a change in Lu Qingyan’s expression and imdiately backed down.
"Gu Yong."
Lu Qingyan lifted her head, her gaze keenly locked on Gu Yong. She said, "I have a feeling that Professor Yang Kaining’s students appear to be subtly asking us about the core technology of our university’s 3D bio-printers."
"Hmm?"
At these words, Gu Yong’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.
"What’s wrong?"
"Now that you ntion it, I’ve just realized, Green also approached a couple of days ago to talk about the 3D bioprinting technology related to our collaboration."
Gu Yong stated the facts.
"Gu Yong, Principal Ding has explicitly instructed us to be tight-lipped about the core technology used in our school’s 3D bio-printers."
Lu Qingyan imdiately reminded him.
"I’m well aware of that, so all I did was fob him off with peripheral aspects of our work," Gu Yong nodded.
Even though Mist City Arts and Science University’s laboratory team was collaborating with Professor Yang Kaining and his team of doctoral students, they would never disclose the key details of their respective technologies.
"So, you’re suggesting... those foreigners, or maybe Professor Yang, want to acquire the core technology of our school’s 3D bio-printers?"
Gu Yong’s eyes widened in surprise as he asked.
"I cannot speak for Professor Yang, but it doesn’t look like he ever delves into these matters. It is his students, however, who I think are up to no good."
Lu Qingyan drew a simple conclusion.
She suspected that the five doctoral students from the Swiss Zurich Federal Institute of Technology, who were brought by Professor Yang, were not entirely honest. They were always keen on probing into Mist City Arts and Science University’s 3D bioprinting technology.
"We must report this to Principal Ding as soon as he arrives," Gu Yong replied without a second thought, believing that Principal Ding should be made aware of this situation.
"Yes, I was thinking the sa."
Lu Qingyan nodded.
...
Mist City Airport.
Upon deboarding the plane, Xu Dongcheng rushed straight to Mist City Arts and Science University.
All throughout the journey, Xu Dongcheng was decidedly excited.
Just after alighting from the plane, Xu Dongcheng made another call to Principal Ding, maintaining constant communication.
"Principal Xu, have you landed? You haven’t had a al yet, have you?"
"Principal Ding, I didn’t even have ti to think about eating. All I want is to see your school’s research results as soon as possible," Xu Dongcheng replied eagerly.
Gurgle~
As soon as Xu Dongcheng’s voice fell, his stomach growled audibly.
In hindsight, he should have had his assistant buy a snack after getting off the plane. But now, it was too late; his car was already on the Ring Expressway towards Mist City.
"Hahaha, you can’t skip lunch!" Ding Yue laughed as he said: "Let arrange for the canteen to prepare sothing for you. It will only take about thirty minutes to reach us from the Ring Highway."
"Oh, Principal Ding, you don’t have to go to all that trouble. A simple boxed al will do just fine."
"Alright, as you wish."
Having failed to convince Xu Dongcheng, Ding Yue knew that he was eager to see the research results from the biodical lab at Mist City Arts and Science University and to get the latest updates.
Specifically, he wanted to know when a matching liver organ for his daughter could be printed using a 3D bio-printer and then transplanted into her.
"Principal Xu, why don’t you take a nap in the car and call when you arrive?"
Ding Yue genuinely worried that Principal Xu would arrive looking utterly exhausted from traveling and would need to rest up properly.
"Alright then."
Xu Dongcheng didn’t argue this ti. He had spent his journey to the airport and on the plane feeling anxious and excited, and he hadn’t gotten any sleep.
While on his way to Mist City Arts and Science University, he decided to take a quick nap in the car.
Actually, Principal Xu Dongcheng knew that Principal Ding Yue was right. He should not let his excitent and thrill get the better of him.
Even though the experintal team at Mist City Arts and Science University’s dical School, along with Professor Yang Kaining, had finally printed the first biological tissue organ,
Applying 3D biological printing technology into actual dical surgeries would still require so ti.
About half an hour later,
A black sedan slowly drove up to the entrance gate of the Mist City Arts and Science University.
Ding Yue had already arrived at the entrance to greet Principal Xu Dongcheng. After all, Principal Xu was a person who had donated a large sum to the biodical engineering departnt of Mist City Arts and Science University.
Moreover, the personal friendship between Ding Yue and Principal Xu Dongcheng was also quite good.
"Principal Ding!"
After getting out of the car, an excited Xu Dongcheng walked over to Ding Yue, clasped his hand and said, "Principal Ding, I didn’t think the results would co this fast. You have no idea how excited I was when I received your call. Co on, let’s go to the lab and see!"
"Not having lunch?" Ding Yue replied with a faint smile before turning his head and signaling to Wen Ruohan.
In Wen Ruohan’s hand was a plastic bag containing two boxed lunches, freshly made from the canteen and still warm.
Principal Xu Dongcheng and his assistant had traveled all the way to Mist City Arts and Science University, they likely haven’t even had a sip of water on their way.
Gurgle~
At that mont, Principal Xu Dongcheng’s stomach rumbled again.
"Let’s walk and eat. I can explain the details to you on our way," Ding Yue took hold of Xu Dongcheng and started walking towards the campus.
Over at the dical laboratory,
Bai Liwei, the departnt head of the dical school, had made preparations to receive Principal Ding and Principal Xu, primarily setting aside the required dust-proof and sterile suits for the lab.
"Professor Yang, Principal Ding and Principal Xu from Westlight University will be here soon."
Bai Liwei inford Professor Yang Kaining of this.
Professor Yang Kaining nodded, "Hmm, it’s about ti they co over and check. This is the result of our months of hard work."
In a short while,
Ding Yue and Xu Dongcheng arrived. Both principals had brought secretaries or assistants; altogether four people. After donning the dust-proof and sterile suits for the lab, they went into the dical laboratory.
In the laboratory, Principal Xu Dongcheng finally got to see the biological tissue organ printed by the 3D biological printer.
It seed to be a heart, but not quite like a human heart.
"Principal Ding, what organ is this?"
Xu Dongcheng curiously asked.
"Principal Xu, this is an animal’s heart. Without official approval from the pharmaceutical authorities, we are not yet able to print human organs,"
Director Bai Liwei explained briefly to Principal Xu Dongcheng.
"Oh oh."
Although Xu Dongcheng was not very familiar with these field restrictions and procedures, he was able to understand.
After all, printing human organs with technology must be reported to the official pharmaceutical institutions and approval must be obtained before it could be carried out.
"So... when can we get the approval? Is it possible within this year?"
A keen Xu Dongcheng looked at Bai Liwei and Principal Ding and asked.
"Principal Xu, don’t worry. In fact, when we began our experintal research, we had already submitted the necessary approval procedures. It’s closely linked to our research progress. Without any unexpected issues, we should receive it in a couple of days,"
Bai Liwei hastened to explain.
The experintal institution of Mist City Arts and Science University’s dical School had strong backing. Not only does it have the Mist City Central Hospital and Mist City dical University behind it,
it also holds the patented technology of the 3D biological printer in the National Patent Office.
Plus, with the state’s strong support of 3D biological printing technology,
The pharmaceutical authorities would issue the approval once the completion of the laboratory experints at Mist City Arts and Science University is nearing.
Once that happens, the dical laboratory of Mist City Arts and Science University can move on to the next step...
