Chapter 610 He Can Only Know Chinese

What a talent to have such achievements under the age of 30.

Lloyd thought that Professor Yang was so young because of his good looks, but he didn't expect his real age to be in his 20s.

The petrochemical professors had mixed feelings in their hearts. A young man under 30 years old, August's mentor, solved a problem he had not solved for more than ten years, and his mood was not much better anyway.

"Anything else?"

August looked at these sculpture-like colleagues and asked, Professor Yang over there was still waiting for him.

"Are you sure his age is 28? Sorry, we shouldn't ask such privacy questions." Professor William's eyes were empty.

August nodded: "Yes, very sure."

"Okay! It's all right, can you go to work?"

Professor William waved his hand stiffly, indicating that August could go out.

August left the conference room suspiciously. A group of professors were sitting in fear, just for this question?Just to ask Professor Yang's age, it doesn't seem to fit the style of everyone here.

Yang Ping was still at the little duke's bedside. He checked the negative pressure drainage left before and after. The tube was unobstructed, and the bloody fluid was not very much, only a few milliliters, indicating that there was not much bleeding.

The cancellous bone surface of the osteotomy should be relatively thoroughly fixed by pressure, so there is not much bleeding on the cancellous bone surface, because in this kind of operation, the most source of bleeding is the osteotomy surface.

The ECMO machine is working fine, in a few days you can try to reduce the blood through ECMO, and slowly, you can try to wean it off.

"Professor, take a break?"

August said respectfully.

Yang Ping came to Haraxing Orthopedic Hospital as soon as he got off the plane, and he didn't rest for a moment, but it is better to rest on the plane, and this kind of surgery may be like a big enemy to others, requiring a lot of mental and physical energy.

But to Yang Ping, it wasn't a big deal, so it didn't consume much mental and physical energy.

"It's okay, wait for the brace to be made and send it to me for a look." Yang Ping was not very sleepy.

"After the brace is made, I will send them to you for you to look over in person. Don't worry, let's go to the office first."

August still persuaded Yang Ping to rest in his office and drink some tea. He prepared some tea leaves and tea sets, all of which were brought from China.

The old Duke was tired, and the housekeeper advised him to sit down and rest. He saw that Professor Yang was standing all the time, but he did not sit down.

He is very grateful to the Chinese professor, and would like to find a time to talk to him about the Duke Fund, which will continue to support Professor Yang's scientific research.

However, the operation has just been completed at this time, which is obviously not the time, and it will make people feel that the operation has a strong sense of utilitarianism, so we will talk about it later, anyway, August will keep in touch with the Chinese professor.

"Thank you very much!"

The old duke bowed again to express his gratitude, and Yang Ping bowed slightly to show his return.

"If there is no accident and everything goes well, he should be able to stand up and walk after three months. Of course, he needs a rehabilitation doctor to help him with gait training, lower limb muscle training, and back muscle training. Five weeks after the operation Attention should be paid to the problem of spinal cord vascular embolism. This possibility is very small, but it must be noted that as for the problem of osteotomy non-fusion, the probability is very small. Even if it occurs, there is still a solution in the second stage. For heart problems, I gave an artificial thorax The expansion progress table, as long as he follows the progress, he will definitely be able to pass the dangerous period. With the current state of the heart, after passing the dangerous period, it will be no problem to persist for another two or three years. However, this kind of heart function should be found as soon as possible. Transplant."

Yang Ping explained to August, and at the same time told the old Duke.

"Gordenberg's disease should be caused by a mutation in a certain gene. This kind of spinal spiral deformity is different from other deformities we know. Doctor Ao, you can do a research when you have time to find out."

Yang Ping spoke Chinese, and only August and Marcus could understand it.

After August finished listening, he translated it for the old Duke and others.

The old Duke nodded frequently. Although he couldn't understand Chinese, he felt that Chinese was the best language in the world at this time, because people who spoke Chinese solved the biggest problem in his life.

"He, can he still marry and have children in the future?"

After the old prince finished asking, he felt that it was inappropriate to ask this question at this time, and he seemed a little impatient, but he couldn't take it back.

Yang Ping thought for a while: "Of course it is possible, but it is best to have sex after the heart replacement, because the current heart function is too poor, it may not be able to support male orgasm, even if it can, it is very dangerous."

In fact, big families in Europe attach great importance to childbearing, and they also hope to have many children and spread branches and leaves. In the past, many of them liked to marry close relatives in order to prevent the bloodline from being diluted.

Yang Ping didn't know whether there was consanguineous marriage in the Duke's family, but this kind of spiral spine must be a genetic problem. It is very difficult for ordinary pathogenic factors to shape this standard spiral spine.

"Thank you!"

Hearing that he can still get married and have children, the old Duke's expectations for his son have increased to another level.

After observing for almost half an hour, Yang Ping followed August back to the office after confirming that there was nothing wrong with the little duke.

There are only Yang Ping and August in the office.

August did not know when he assembled a set of tea sets, purple clay teapots and teacups, and a special mahogany coffee table, which looked decent, washed cups, placed cups, and poured tea. August’s technique was very skillful, as if he was a An old tea friend for many years.

"West Lake Longjing teapot, Yixing's purple sand teapot, I don't know what will happen if you soak it in German mineral water, professor, please taste it?"

August had a sophisticated demeanor, just like a Chinese host who treats friends with tea, holding a cup of tea in front of Yang Ping with both hands.

Yang Ping took a sip, it was not bad, in fact Yang Ping's level of drinking tea is not that high, but he is used to drinking tea, other things such as coffee and so on, he is not interested at all.

It is impossible to achieve the state of distinguishing tea with eyes closed.

“It tastes good!”

Yang Ping put down his teacup.

While refilling Yang Ping's tea, August said, "The old Duke intends to let the Duke Fund cooperate with you. You must not be polite, and he once promised that if there is any doctor who can cure his son's illness, he will give ten One hundred million euros was given to this doctor as a scientific research fund, but unfortunately no one can get it."

"Has the Duke Fund funded many projects?"

Yang Ping is a little interested in this fund. According to August, he has funded many projects in Europe and America, many of which have led to the Nobel Prize.

"In Germany, apart from the government-funded Max Planck Society, the private Duke Fund is the most powerful in scientific research funding, and the Max Planck Society is an academic organization funded by the German government. The funding objects are limited to Germany, and the Duke Fund funding targets are all over the world. "

August introduced the basic situation of this fund.

Yang Ping is very familiar with the Max Planck Society, the full name of which is the Max Planck Society, which is one of the top three scientific research giants in the world.

Among the top three scientific research giants in the world, the top two are the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Harvard University.

The Max Planck Society in Germany was founded in 1948. Its predecessor was the Royal Wilhelm Society of Germany. It is the largest scientific research institution engaged in basic scientific research in Germany and the largest, most prestigious and most effective autonomous scientific organization funded by the government in the world.

The Max Planck Society has a total of 86 research institutes and [-] staff members, half of whom are foreigners. Their research fields involve physics, engineering technology, biomedicine, basic science and many other research fields. They have been committed to the international frontier and cutting-edge basic research work.

More than 30 Nobel Prizes have been born in scientific research institutions under the society.

Yang Ping is not familiar with the Duke Fund, so he just heard about it from August.

"The Duke Fund was established relatively late, and the field of funding is currently mainly medical, so it is impossible for the Max Planck Society with an official background to be powerful. However, in the field of medicine, only the Rockefeller Foundation of the United States can match at present. The medical science funded by the Duke Fund A lot of research is more radical, so it is very low-key, such as the connection after the severed spinal cord research by Maninstein, do you know why he prepared it?" August was afraid that Yang Ping would dismiss this fund, so he tried to talk about it. Be more detailed.

"Why prepare?"

Yang Ping didn't try to guess either.

August took a sip of tea and said: "He is preparing for the head transplant surgery. Maninstein's lifelong wish is to successfully perform the head transplant surgery. Of course, there are precedents for this kind of surgery, whether it is in animals or humans. But all failed in the end, because the operation can connect the blood vessels of the head and body, but cannot connect the spinal cord and nerves, so the postoperative animals can survive through blood flow, but they cannot control the body, which is equivalent to a patient with extremely high paraplegia. The following is completely paralyzed, including the ventilator and the heart muscle, so the head-transplanted animal relies on the machine to maintain circulation and breathing, and cannot survive for long."

This crazy guy really didn't take an unusual path.

"This kind of experiment is difficult to obtain huge fund support because of the ethical controversy and the difficulty. However, the Duke Fund is very fond of this kind of imaginative medical topic, and it is extremely generous. It has provided [-] million euros to Manchester. Einstein."

Five hundred million euros, that's a huge amount of funding.

"The projects supported by the fund also include the field of stem cell cultured organs, artificial hearts, nanomedical robots, precision tumor treatment, etc., many of which have achieved results." August is very familiar with this fund, and when it comes to these projects, he is at his fingertips.

If this is the case, the value of this fund is very large, not something that can be measured in billions of euros. Yang Ping was thinking while listening.

Yang Ping is currently working on the subject of organ cloning. The data collected so far are all published papers. Many cutting-edge research has not yet reached the point of publishing articles, so naturally no relevant papers can be seen.

If you can inspect all the projects funded by the Duke Fund and gain an in-depth understanding, I am afraid it will be very beneficial to your subject.

Because standing on the shoulders of giants is the fastest way to study, so as to avoid repeated wheel creation and unnecessary trial and error.

In short, the more information you have, the clearer your research direction will be.

Yang Ping tapped lightly on the tea table with his fingers, thinking about it.

"I am very interested in this fund, not just the billion-euro scientific research fund, but also in the projects he funded, such as research in the field of stem cells." Yang Ping expressed his thoughts bluntly.

August nodded: "If the professor is interested, just a word, I will mention it to the old duke afterwards, and arrange for you to investigate the project you are interested in, how about it? The old duke will definitely help unconditionally."

"That's it. It's impossible for me to inspect every project. If possible, you can make a list of the projects he funded, and I will select some for inspection. If possible, it is best to have a progress introduction of the project."

Yang Ping knows that some sensitive subjects of scientific research institutions have nothing to do with them, so it is impossible for them to be investigated.

Relationships are applicable everywhere in the world, but they are expressed in different forms and occupy different weights.

August poured another cup of tea for Yang Ping: "This matter is settled like this, I will arrange it."

If the professor can agree to cooperate with the Duke Fund, August himself may be able to get some credit and be able to cooperate with the professor on some topics.

It will be very difficult for a genius like a professor to enter his inner circle, but fortunately, I am getting closer and closer to this step.

August continued drinking tea with Yang Ping.

The bosses in the conference room seemed to have adjourned the meeting. They heard that Professor Yang and August were drinking tea in the office, so Professor Lloyd came to check to see if Professor Yang was free and chat with everyone.

August's office is very spacious, and the door is open. Professor Lloyd just approached the door, and heard two people inside drinking tea and chatting from a distance, saying that they couldn't understand Chinese. Feeling, he returned to the conference room with interest.

"How about it?"

Professor Rimbaud asked, everyone was waiting for Lloyd to reply.

"It's not very convenient, let's talk about it during Chinese food." Lloyd was very envious that August could communicate in Chinese fluently.

Not only about the operation of the little duke, but also about the external fixator of the spine, everyone has many questions and wants to communicate with Professor Yang face to face.

Because we don't know how long Professor Yang will stay here, maybe he will fly back to China after lunch, so we don't want to miss this opportunity.

And there are some people who are curious and want to take a closer look at this magical figure, who is less than 30 years old, but has such a high level, not only good in surgery, but also good in scientific research.

"Is he busy?"

Professor Rimbaud asked.

Professor Lloyd stretched out his hand to straighten his blond hair: "He was chatting with August in Chinese."

Professor Rimbaud suddenly felt sour.

"Professor Yang can't speak English?"

Professor Rimbaud always likes to ask questions.

"Should only be able to speak Chinese. You can see that he only speaks Chinese throughout the whole process." Lloyd guessed.

"How can August know Chinese?"

Professor Rimbaud was very strange. In his impression, August never said that he could speak Chinese. He only knew that he was good at English, Spanish and French.

Who knows, Lloyd is a little distraught right now.

Such a genius stood in front of him, he stepped forward to say a few words, and asked August to act as an interpreter.

At this time, Marcus came to the conference room and arranged Chinese meals for the big guys.

"Marcus, does Professor Yang speak English?"

Professor Lloyd grabbed Marcus and asked fiercely.

Marcus thought for a while: "According to August, Professor Yang only knows Chinese."

"Then how did he write his English thesis?" Lloyd didn't give up.

Marcus shook his head: "I don't know, maybe someone specially translated for him?"

In fact, Yang Ping's English is very good, and he wrote all the papers in English, but Yang Ping doesn't know German, so it's better to speak Chinese directly and let August translate it, which will be more expressive.
