After being fired, I became the light of medicine

Chapter 140 I will do everything I can to keep you alive (Subscription required)
"There are too many people here, let's go outside and talk."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang."

Twenty minutes later, Jiang Yong finished drawing blood and administering medicine for this clinical trial.

Following Zhang Yang's suggestion, the two walked out of the slightly crowded hall of the clinical trial center and came to the hospital campus.

As soon as he went out, Zhang Yang spoke first:

"Didn't you go to Shenzhen to deal with your divorce? When did you come back?"

"It's been almost a month since I came back."

Jiang Yong lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhang Yang.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry... I know you're a good person, but I've been gone for more than half a year, and it would be inappropriate to come back and trouble you."

"So, I didn't come to trouble you..."

Zhang Yang waved his hand. He could understand Jiang Yong's mentality of worrying about gains and losses.

"It's okay. Have you finished your family affairs?"

Jiang Yong certainly knew what Zhang Yang was referring to. After a moment of silence, he slowly said:
"After it was dealt with, she and I divorced."

"I came back last month to get the divorce certificate."

Zhang Yang sighed in his heart. In fact, when Jiang Yong told him that his wife had cheated on him and was getting a divorce, he had guessed that this would be the outcome.

Jiang Yong needs long-term dialysis and has lost his ability to earn money. In addition, the two live apart. Only true love can stick together under such circumstances.

Unfortunately, there are not so many people who stick together.

At this moment, Jiang Yong smiled bitterly and continued:

"Mr. Zhang, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. When I first went to Shenzhen Stock Exchange, I was trying my best to win her back and prove to her that I could still make money."

"I couldn't get into the factory so I drove for Didi. But after driving for half a month, I ended up being hospitalized."

"The doctor told me that if I didn't want to live, I would continue to torture myself like this, and it wouldn't be long before I was gone. Only then did I really accept my fate..."

"Later, I negotiated with her, and gradually I came to my senses. There was nothing I could do. Who told me to have uremia? This is fate! Since she is determined to divorce, then let's divorce!"

Zhang Yang was silent, and continued walking along the hospital road for several meters before he slowly said:

"What about your daughter and son?"

"She doesn't want to have the child, she's only willing to pay for child support."

"To be honest, I firmly disagreed at first. I hated her and hoped that she would have a bad life after the divorce, so I wanted her to at least take one of the children with her, so that she wouldn't be happy when she got married and would always be a burden to her!"

“But then I relented.”

Jiang Yong stopped, lowered his head and looked at his feet, and whispered:

"It's not that I'm soft-hearted towards her, but I still can't bear to leave my two children. I'm afraid they will be wronged by following her mother. I can't bear it."

"Although I am now a disabled person, at least I have some savings. With me here, I can at least ensure that they don't suffer any grievances and grow up healthily."

Zhang Yang looked at Jiang Yong quietly, feeling mixed emotions.

After a long while, he patted Jiang Yong on the shoulder:

"Jiang Yong, you are a good father. When your son and daughter grow up, they will understand who is right and who is wrong."

Jiang Yong forced out a rare smile and exhaled heavily, as if he had completely let go of the knot in his heart.

"None of this matters anymore..."

"Honestly, Mr. Zhang, I don't have any other ideas now. I just hope I can watch my two children grow up healthily."

"If I can live to see them get married and have a family, then I will die without regrets."

Zhang Yang suddenly felt a little sad.

Yes, although dialysis can maintain Jiang Yong’s life, the chances of him living for more than 20 years are extremely slim.

Strictly speaking, Jiang Yong's life had already started counting down from the moment he started dialysis.

Five years? Ten years? Fifteen years?
It all depends on your luck.

The atmosphere was a little depressing for a moment. Zhang Yang coughed lightly and tried to smile:
"Jiang Yong, you will definitely be able to wait, don't worry."

After saying that, he simply changed the subject:

"You are raising two children by yourself now. Do you feel stressed in life? By the way, how much does dialysis cost for you now?"

"Life is OK. My parents have some pension to help support me."

"As for the dialysis fee... I have now registered for the 'special disease and chronic disease clinic', and the cost of dialysis is about 900 yuan; but the national policy is good, 90% is reimbursed, and I pay 10% myself, which is about 100 yuan per time."

"Three times a week, twelve times a month, the monthly cost is about 1200 to 1800 yuan."

Three times a week, twelve times a month, 900 yuan each time.

Zhang Yang repeated it softly in his mouth, and immediately associated this price with the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Replacement Injection" in his mind.

The "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Replacement Needle" is currently undergoing Phase III clinical trials. It is highly likely that there will be no problems and it will pass smoothly. Now, of course, we have to consider the issue of pricing.

Previously, Qingshan Pharmaceutical's "ITG Human Myelopoietin" and "Hepatocyte Activator" were both unique drugs in the world, and their pricing had no reference.

However, the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle" is obviously an alternative to dialysis, so its pricing will naturally refer to the current price of "hemodialysis".

In addition, the "dialysis needle" is special and needs to be used eight times a month. If the price is too expensive, who would choose to use the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle"? Just continue with hemodialysis.

and,

Zhang Yang suddenly realized that the most important thing to consider in the pricing plan of "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Injection" is not the patients, but medical insurance.

After all, if this drug is to be widely used in dialysis patients, it must be reimbursed by medical insurance at least 90% like "hemodialysis"!

"It seems that we need to communicate with the Medical Insurance Bureau before setting the price, and invite them to participate in the pricing."

Thinking of this, Liu Weiguo, the director of the Medical Insurance Procurement Department who had negotiated with him about "Ikefenprofovir" before, came to his mind.

I have done Liu Weiguo a big favor before, so it shouldn't be a problem to talk to him about this matter now.

While thinking, Zhang Yang continued to walk along the path side by side with Jiang Yong. After a few steps, his thoughts gradually returned to the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle".

Said softly:
"Jiang Yong, you have also participated in the clinical trial of 'Shenduqing' for two weeks, right? Tell me the truth, what do you think of this drug? If it is available on the market, will you continue to use it?"

"of course!"

When Jiang Yong heard about the “Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Replacement Injection”, excitement and anticipation rarely appeared on his face.

"Mr. Zhang, you don't know that your 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle' has become a daily topic of discussion in our dialysis room and among patients." "Everyone is saying that this drug is convenient and effective, and they are all looking forward to its launch soon. If the price is right and can be reimbursed, everyone will definitely choose to use the 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle'!"

Zhang Yang is not a saint. Hearing Jiang Yong, a real patient, praising "Shenduqing" so much, he couldn't help but feel happy.

"Oh? Are you really saying that? You're exaggerating!"

"Anything else? What else did everyone say? Tell me more."

"it is good!"

Seeing that Zhang Yang was quite interested, Jiang Yong continued:
"In fact, what everyone is most happy about is the 'instant urination' function of the 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle'."

"You don't know the situation of us dialysis patients. Although we have to undergo dialysis three times a week, we actually pay more attention to our diet than normal people!"

"You need to be especially careful when eating and drinking water. You must not drink too much because the amount of water we drink during each dialysis is fixed. So if you eat too much and drink too much water, one dialysis session will not be able to excrete the water and toxins in your body. Then your body will feel very uncomfortable in the next few days."

"Therefore, we dialysis patients are very careful about what we eat, for fear that we might eat too much and exceed the dialysis value."

"To be honest, after participating in the 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle' trial last week, I couldn't help but drink two more bowls of fish soup. The result made me very excited. Even on the last day when I needed dialysis, my body didn't have edema and I didn't feel uncomfortable."

As he spoke, Jiang Yong's face became more and more excited.

"I have to say, this function of restoring urination is really great."

"In addition, it is very convenient. It is no longer necessary to perform dialysis every two days. Many patients are even discussing not having to have a 'stoma' (indwelling needle in the body) and just inserting a needle once a week during dialysis."

"It can be said that everyone is excited about the emergence of the 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle' and everyone is looking forward to its launch soon!"

"Of course, the only thing everyone is worried about now is the price..."

Having said this, Jiang Yong's emotions gradually calmed down from excitement.

"Everyone hopes that the price will not be too expensive. It would be best if the government could reimburse part of it. Only in this way can everyone really afford it."

"I also know that our Qingshan Pharmaceutical has invested a lot of research funds in this drug, and we also want to make money. I just implore you to consider it a little bit..."

Zhang Yang already had some plans in mind and nodded:
"Don't worry, you don't have to worry too much about the price. I will seriously consider it."

"Well, thank you!"

After chatting for a while, Zhang Yang looked at the time on his phone and saw that it had been more than half an hour, so it was about time.

After a moment, he stopped and looked at Jiang Yong.

To be honest, Jiang Yong's commitment and sense of responsibility left a good impression on him, especially his courage and responsibility to take the initiative to bring his two children with him, which was enough to prove that he was a good father.

After a few seconds of silence:

"Jiang Yong, it's almost time and I'm ready to leave."

"Before you leave, I still say the same thing. If you need a job, you can come to Qingshan Pharmaceutical at any time. Captain Koro knows your situation and will not embarrass you."

"Of course, if you have a good place to go, I sincerely hope that you will get better and better."

Sincere words flowed in the air, and Jiang Yong was deeply moved.

He was stunned for a few seconds, then solemnly bowed deeply to Zhang Yang in front of him.

"Mr. Zhang, thank you for helping me time and time again. I know you are a truly good person!"

"To be honest, after returning from the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, I did think about returning to Qingshan Pharmaceutical as a security guard, but now..."

"After two weeks of the clinical trial of the 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle', I feel more and more that I can live on my own."

"To be honest, I feel that my health has improved a lot now, and it is much better than before dialysis. Not only me, but also several patients in my dialysis room have the same feeling after participating in the clinical trial."

"I think it's because toxins can be excreted from the body at any time, so our body won't be burdened that much, right?"

"Now I and several young dialysis patients have made new life plans. If your 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle' can be put on the market quickly and the price is within our acceptable range, we still hope to earn money and support ourselves with our own hands and our own abilities."

"I have the same idea. I would rather raise two children with my own hands than rely on your mercy."

Zhang Yang was stunned. Jiang Yong's words shocked him a little.

Suddenly, he felt that he had underestimated Jiang Yong and ordinary people like Jiang Yong.

"To be honest, your development of this 'Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle' has already given us countless dialysis patients hope."

"Previously, two 23-year-old young people who had just graduated from college and were diagnosed with uremia and needed dialysis came to our dialysis room. They had already lost confidence in life. One of them even broke up with his girlfriend, and the other quit his newly found job."

"There is no other way. Dialysis three times a week and endless dialysis make everyone lose hope."

"What now……"

"They participated in the clinical trial of 'Shenduqing' and they are all ready to find a job again...

Although no one said it, everyone knows that you not only developed a drug, but also gave all of us young people hope for life and hope for the future!"

“It is you who has given us new confidence in life. It is you who has let us know that we are not useless and that we are still capable of supporting ourselves!”

"Thank you. You have given us hope for a new life. Let us walk the rest of the way on our own!"

Zhang Yang was deeply shocked, not only because of Jiang Yong's true inner thoughts, but also because he did not expect that he would have such a great image in the hearts of countless dialysis patients!

Gradually, he felt a sense of sadness and heaviness in his heart, and then he felt an unprecedented sense of responsibility and commitment.

After ten seconds, he patted Jiang Yong's shoulder again and said solemnly:

"Jiang Yong, you are great. Live a good life and keep on living! For you, and for your son and daughter!"

"Don't worry, leave the rest to me. I will do everything I can to keep you alive!"

Jiang Yong had a bright smile on his face, just like the first time he saw him in the dialysis room.

"Mr. Zhang, if someone else said this, I wouldn't believe it, but if you say this, I believe it!"

"Thank you, thank you, on behalf of all dialysis patients, thank you!"

After saying that, Jiang Yong bowed deeply again and was reluctant to stand up.

Zhang Yang took a deep breath. He had originally wanted to wait for BI's "toxin filtering catalyst" to undergo some clinical trials before contacting them. But now it seems that he has to hurry up!

Only by finding a way to acquire BI's patent for "BI-Toxin Filtration Catalyst" will it be possible to carry out secondary development of "Kidney Toxin Clearing" on this basis and further improve the toxin clearance rate.

Only in this way can "Kidney Toxin Clearer" be closer to the toxin-clearing effect of the human kidneys, and only in this way can dialysis patients truly live longer!
It's time to contact a BI company.
