Chapter 265 The principle of normal temperature superconductivity?



A daily sales volume of 50 million is considered huge for any drug.

Of course, this can only be regarded as the total sales of a batch, and there is only one such batch.

But even so, it was a miracle in the pharmaceutical sales world that all the first batch of drugs were sold out in one day.

After all, how many new drugs can get so many orders on the first day of their launch.

However, unexpected, but also reasonable.

After all, it is the reputation brought about by the clinical trial process. At the beginning, there were still many hospitals with corresponding qualifications in China. They hoped that the clinical trials of RSCA would be carried out in their hospitals. Medicine, and even Dr. Yin Kangping, the top cardiovascular and cerebrovascular expert of Xiehe, praised it greatly. How could it be worse?

And the facts in the subsequent clinical experiments also proved this point, this new drug did have an effect that was enough to shock them.

...

"I'm sorry, I really don't have a dollar. We are urgently contacting the second batch of foundries, and the sales will start in two months. Please pay attention to relevant news at that time, and we will also notify your hospital. Yes, thank you for your understanding."

"...Sorry, our first batch of drugs has indeed been sold out, there is really no drop...not a single dollar...the second batch of sales will start in two months, please pay attention when the time comes..."

In the Shanghai branch of Peng Zu Life Science and Technology Company, the employees in charge of consulting business are constantly answering and making calls from various hospitals across the country, so that their work has hardly stopped in the past few days. answer the phone.

There are 37,000 hospitals in the country, ignoring some of them with insufficient qualifications, and conservatively estimating that there are 20,000 hospitals that can perform frequent surgeries.

On a conservative estimate, only 10,000 of these hospitals need antithrombotic drugs, and they may receive more calls than imagined.

And, sometimes it's not just these hospitals.

Hospitals in Hong Kong and Macau, as well as foreign hospitals, already have hospitals that care about RSCA.

"Sorry... eh? Wait, you are the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital? Then I'm sorry, RSCA has not yet obtained the marketing approval from the Hong Kong Food and Drug Administration, so it cannot be sold to you? Huh? Private transaction? Sorry, we He is a first-class citizen and does not do illegal things.”

Their reception staff can also speak Cantonese, so they can answer calls from Hong Kong in Cantonese.

It's just that the customer service personnel are a little surprised that the hospital in Hong Kong City is willing to conduct private transactions.

That is to say, they trade drugs in private, and then the other party uses them clinically for treatment.

As for the Sanatorium and Hospital, the customer service staff also knows that this is one of the top private hospitals in Hong Kong. The famous gambling king Stanley Ho received treatment here. It is also treated here.

As for how many other Hong Kong tycoons have also received treatment here, although it has not been announced, it is obviously unknown.

Therefore, it is indeed very normal for the Sanatorium and Hospital to be willing to conduct this kind of private transaction.

But no matter what, this is considered an illegal thing, so it is naturally impossible for the customer service staff to give an affirmative answer.

Of course, such an important matter should also be informed to their superiors.

So soon, the customer service staff immediately told the relevant news to his immediate superior, who was also the head of their marketing department.

The head of the marketing department also quickly informed their general manager, Kingsley Weir, about the incident.

"The hospitals in these non-mainland areas are already in a hurry."

Kingsley Weir is not puzzled by this. For these private hospitals, the success rate of treatment is obviously very important. After all, it is also related to their reputation, especially when treating the rich. Of course, they hope to ensure the success rate of the operation, so as to attract more customers.

So of course they hope to be able to use RSCA. As for the issue that they may have to pay more for it-of course, there is no need to worry about these private hospitals, because the wool comes from sheep, and the rich will willingly Pay for them here.

"Yes, I can agree, but it is necessary to explain that we only sell them in the mainland. How they want to take them abroad for use is their business, and we don't care."

"If they call again, just reply like this."

"Yes, Mr. Weir."

The head of the marketing department nodded after receiving Kingsley Weir's instructions, and then left the office as well.

And Kingsley Weir rubbed his chin, thinking: "But these guys can't earn all the money, we only earn a wholesale price."

Now he has begun to be able to skillfully think about how to bring greater benefits to the company.

"We still have to ask the boss to contact you as soon as possible to open up the international market as soon as possible."

It would be a pity if they couldn't earn the whole world's money with such a powerful medicine.

...

"Well, I see, I will contact Bayer in a while, but according to my estimation, those companies should also contact you during this period, and they should be able to negotiate some good prices by then."

Oxford University, in Li Mu's office, he said to Weir's phone call.

Then, they hung up the phone.

In China, he has his own connections, so he can set up his own production line. In terms of clinical procedure approval, he can also pass various approvals at a faster speed without violating procedural justice.

And if there is no relationship abroad, obviously it will not work, so cooperation is the most ideal.

Bayer, which has been in contact with them, is also the first choice at present. Of course, it still depends on the price given by all parties.

During the period when RSCA was listed in China, he has not contacted those big pharmaceutical companies, in order to wait for the effect shown after the listing now, so as to increase their bargaining chips.

Now their RSCA has sold 50 million in a day, and I believe that it won't be long before these pharmaceutical companies can't sit still.

Before the patent period of about 20 years expires, whichever company first reaches cooperation with them will be able to enjoy the monopoly profits during this period, and they will be able to make money almost lying down.

Even if a thrombolytic drug more powerful than RSCA appears in the future, the market size of RSCA will certainly not be cut off.

What's more, within a few decades, will there really be a thrombolytic drug stronger than RSCA in this world?

The medical community around the world is skeptical.

RSCA is simply not like the thrombolytic drugs of this era. It does not meet the fourth-generation thrombolytic drugs defined by the medical community, and perhaps it should be the fifth-generation thrombolytic drugs.

Although the medical community did not define the fifth-generation thrombolytic drug in the past, RSCA has forced the medical community to define it based on its effect.

Otherwise, the original fourth-generation thrombolytic drugs will be compressed into 3.5 generations.

"Leave this alone for now."

Li Mu shook his head, and then didn't care about it any more. He looked at the time, "Well...my application for the laboratory has been submitted, and now I can go to the laboratory."

About half a month ago, he applied for the school's condensed matter physics laboratory. After waiting in line for so long, it was finally his turn.

After getting up and leaving the office, the students of Merton College that he met along the way all greeted him and showed respect.

It was like this before he won the Fields Medal, and even more so after he won the Fields Medal.

In this way, he left the college and finally came to the physics laboratory building.

"Professor Li, hello, I'm George Evans, the director of the laboratory, welcome to come."

When he first entered the laboratory building, a person recognized him, greeted him, and introduced himself to him.

Li Mu nodded: "Director Evans, hello."

Evans smiled at him, and continued: "Now I will take you to the laboratory first."

Later, under the leadership of Evans, Li Mu came to the door of the laboratory.

"Our condensed matter physics laboratory is one of the most advanced condensed matter laboratories in the UK."

"We have all the necessary experimental equipment, such as this X-ray diffractometer and Raman spectrometer. They can all be used to measure the structure of materials."

While talking, Evans turned his head to look at Li Mu, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that the person he introduced didn't seem to need his introduction at all, so he couldn't help coughing twice in embarrassment, and then said: "Oh , I’m sorry, I’m used to it, you should know Professor Li.”

Li Mu waved his hands with a smile, and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, if you are willing to give an oral introduction, I'd be more than happy to listen."

"Haha, I don't think it's necessary."

Evans shook his head, but at this moment, he saw another big guy, his eyes lit up, and then he said to Li Mu: "Of course, let me introduce you to this thing."

"Arpes, angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, our angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy can be regarded as the top arpes in the world, worth up to 3 million pounds, the third-generation technology, and the accessories that can be used in it are all the best Okay, like Hemispherical Analyzer, Manipulator..."

"Studying condensed matter physics, with such a guy, will definitely bring great experimental results."

Evans introduced this extremely complicated instrument to Li Mu like a treasure, with all kinds of pipes, an ordinary person would definitely be confused.

Li Mu also nodded. This thing will probably be the instrument he will focus on in his next research.

For the research of topological insulating materials and superconducting materials, arpes are relatively important equipment.

"That's all, Professor Li, if you have any needs, just contact me." Evans said: "Oh, by the way, where are the other members of your team?"

Li Mu smiled: "Now I am the only one in my team."

Evans was stunned for a moment: "Only... you alone?"

"Yes." Li Mu waved his hand: "My subject doesn't need too many people."

"I see." Evans nodded, but still asked curiously: "Then... May I take the liberty to ask, what is your subject?"

"That's the only thing that can be studied in condensed matter physics." Li Mu shook his head, and did not hide his subject: "I plan to study the principle of superconductors."

"The principle of superconductivity?" Evans nodded, "So that's the case, then I wish you success."

But at this moment, another voice came from the door of the laboratory: "Professor Li Mu, if you want to study superconductors, why not join my research group?"

Both Li Mu and Evans were taken aback, then turned to look at the door, and then they saw a middle-aged man walking in.

Evans said, "Huh? Professor Wilbur, why are you here?"

"It's not normal for me to come here, I just want to see who takes my lab first."

This Professor Wilbur looked at Li Mu and said, "What I didn't expect was that it was actually Professor Li Mu."

Li Mu turned his head and glanced at this person. He didn't know who this Professor Wilbur was, but he still needed to correct what he said: "This Professor Wilbur, I need to explain, No one takes the first step, this is the arrangement of the school's laboratory management office, if you have any doubts, please contact the laboratory management office, thank you."

Hearing Li Mu's words, Wilbur spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, what I said was wrong."

"However, Mr. Li Mu, with my suggestion just now, maybe you really should seriously consider whether to join our team. In this case, our team won't need to find another laboratory."

"I need to reveal to you that what we are going to study is also superconductivity, and it is still superconductivity at room temperature!"

Wilbur's words were full of confidence.

Li Mu: "... room temperature superconductivity?"

"Yes, it is room temperature superconductivity."

Wilbur nodded emphatically.

Li Mu suddenly burst into laughter, and said, "I remember that the team in South Korea claimed that they had developed room temperature superconductivity a while ago, and you have developed it again?"

"Nonono, Professor Li, don't confuse us with those Korean guys." Wilbur waved his hand: "Their research is not detailed enough, and they don't pay attention to principles, while our research starts from principles. Our team plans to discover Yes, it is the principle of room temperature superconductivity. As for the development of actual materials, we will start after revealing the principle of room temperature superconductivity.”

"Oh? Is that so?" Li Mu frowned.

The principle of room temperature superconductivity?

According to the detailed explanation of superconducting material technology in his mind, there is no principle of room temperature superconductivity, but there are principles of high-temperature superconductivity, low-temperature superconductivity, and the so-called second-type superconductor principle. .

The BCS theory is a low-temperature superconducting theory.

But no matter what, superconductivity is superconductivity, and it can be explained under a unified theory and framework in the end.

Just like string theory, there used to be 4 different string theories until they were finally unified by Edward Witten's M-theory.

Therefore, Li Mu completely disagrees with the principle of normal temperature superconductivity that Wilbur mentioned.

In addition, if they really deduced the principle of room temperature superconductivity purely by theory, then why use the laboratory?

For another example, extremely high pressure can also lead to lower temperature requirements for superconductivity. How to explain this situation?

Something like a neutron star may be a super huge superconductor.

Therefore, there are only two possibilities. The first is that Wilbur is fooling him, and the second is that the thinking of Wilbur's team is wrong.

In any case, such things as room temperature superconductivity theory, in Li Mu's eyes, have a kind of "beauty" of civil science.

However, Wilbur didn't know what Li Mu was thinking. Instead, he said confidently, "Professor Li, your mathematical ability is worthy of our invitation to join you. After all, the physical theory of condensed matter really needs mathematics." s help."

"This is an achievement that can easily win the Nobel Prize in Physics—of course, Professor Li, I know that you may already be on the shortlist for the Nobel Prize in Physics, but if you can win two prizes, I believe You won't refuse, will you?"

Well, regardless of whether the team of Professor Wilbur is wrong in thinking or not, this guy must be a big fool anyway.

When I came up, I started to draw the big cake of the Nobel Prize in Physics.

Therefore, Li Mu politely declined: "I'm sorry, Professor Wilbur, I'm not interested in the theory of room-temperature superconductivity right now. What I want to study is only things in the field of high-temperature superconductivity."

The high temperature in superconductivity refers to the field where superconductivity can be realized at the temperature of liquid nitrogen, so the temperature of high-temperature superconductivity is much lower than that of room-temperature superconductivity.

"Also, I'm going to prepare for the experiment now, so I'm sorry."

Obviously, he meant to drive people away.

Hearing Li Mu's refusal, Wilbur spread his hands indifferently: "Okay, since Professor Li doesn't agree, forget it, then I wish your project a success."

Li Mu smiled: "Thank you, and I wish your project a success."

With nothing to say, both Wilbur and Evans left.

In the laboratory, only Li Mu was left.

No nonsense, his research began.

The preparations required for his research are very simple, nothing more than various superconducting materials and the experimental equipment in front of him.

The most indispensable materials in the condensed matter laboratory are all kinds of superconducting materials, so he doesn't even need to buy them himself, as these commonly used materials are already prepared in the laboratory.

Therefore, his next job is also very simple.

"Try YBCO first."

After finding YBCO, Li Mu started his research.

YBCO, Yttrium Barium Copper Oxygen, is the world's first material that exhibits a superconducting state at a temperature above 77K. It has a very special status for the entire superconducting world.

And Li Mu is planning to use this material to bring a new shock to the superconducting world!
