Although Chen Qi does not have a UN passport like Dad Ma, he can travel to all countries without any hindrance.

But because he holds the title of director of two international medical associations, he is considered an internationally renowned medical scientist (although this director often does not do his job properly)

At the same time, he has the endorsement of Japan's Nipro Medical Equipment Company, so it is very simple for him to get a business visa to Japan. I guess the Japanese are eager for Chen Qi to naturalize directly.

I got my visa at the Japanese Consulate the day before, and the next day Chie Masako from Nipro Company bought a plane ticket for Chen Qi, and arrived at Haneda Airport in more than 2 hours.

This is the first time that Chen Qi has come to this country that is loved and hated by the Chinese people.

What we hate is the hatred between family and country. The blood of tens of millions of compatriots cannot be discarded with an apology, not to mention that they have never apologized.

What I love is private enjoyment. For ordinary people, Japanese electrical appliances, cosmetics, medicines, including later cars and motorcycles, are all high-end goods, and they are flocked to them.

Even Chinese children watched mostly Japanese cartoons when they were young. From "Astro Boy" to later "Doraemon", they have influenced several generations of children.

When I reached adolescence, I watched Japanese "action romance movies". Generations of female teachers educated generations of Chinese boys...

For enterprises, Japanese industrial equipment, product technology, and even business management require Chinese enterprises to study seriously.

For Chen Qi, since there is something worthy of learning from Japan, then we should learn from their technical level and attitude towards work.

Work hard to build our own country and make our country one of the most powerful countries in the world and a hegemon in East Asia.

At that time, you don’t care whether it is the American emperor, a small country, or a country of sticks, you can bully them how you want, and fight them how you want.

Strength is the first priority. What's the use of just talking and protesting all day long? The international order is established by rogue countries based on strength.

To say it is an international order, it is better to say it is the American and British order.

Chie Masako and the driver had been waiting at the airport early. When they saw Chen Qi coming out alone, they hurriedly greeted him and bowed deeply.

"Dr. Chen, you've had a hard journey."

With this bow, her professional clothes and skirts suddenly tightened, revealing the curves of Chie Masako. She is a woman with capital, no wonder she can become a "medical representative".

"I'm very sorry for keeping Miss Masako waiting for so long."

The two of them got into a business car politely. Not long after they got in the car, Chie Masako introduced:

"Dr. Chen, I have already contacted a genetic testing laboratory called Sysmex Co., Ltd. They promised to provide genetic technology at the best price. At the same time, they also made an additional request."

"Sysmex? Isn't this the famous Sysmex company in later generations?"

Chen Qi nodded, obviously quite satisfied with this well-known company, "What are their requirements?"

"Sysmex attaches great importance to your research project. Their president asked if sysmex can join your research team. In this regard, they can not only provide free basic testing, but also provide certain sponsorship to your research team."

As soon as Chen Qi heard about the sponsorship, he became interested.

Although he personally has money, his research group has no money.

A minor illness has already cost more than 30,000 yuan. Now that Shen Lifen is added in, the sum of the scientific research expenses, hospitalization expenses, surgical expenses, medication expenses, etc. of these two people is definitely not a small amount.
p>

Even if the tens of thousands of yuan in 1986 were shared equally among three hospitals, it would be very difficult. After all, everyone couldn't even pay their salaries, so how could they have any money for scientific research?

The ones in China are still small-headed, but the genetic testing in Japan is big-headed.

Chromosome testing for lung cancer in minor cases is already the most basic, and the cost of one such test reaches US$20,000.

This time, Chen Qi also brought Shen Lifen's tissue specimens and sequenced the entire genome of the mother and son. This is equivalent to a big project. I'm afraid the cost will be tens of thousands of dollars, and it is not impossible to exceed hundreds of thousands.

.

Some people may think, why is it so expensive? Nowadays, a genetic test only costs tens of thousands of yuan. For example, genetic screening for pregnant women may cost several thousand yuan.

The problem is, this was 1986, a time when the biological genetic testing project had just started. Of course, it can only be described as expensive.

This is just like home appliances. In 1986, a color TV sold for 3,000 to 4,000 yuan, which was probably a few years' salary for an ordinary worker.

But in 2022, a Xiaomi 50-inch LCD color TV only costs 2,000 yuan, and an ordinary worker can buy several with a monthly salary.

Therefore, times are different, prices are different, and clinical significance is also different.

In Chen Qi's case, Nipro helped advance the cost of the first genetic test, but you can't let others pay for it over and over again, right?

Chen Qi is still worried about the cost of genetic testing, and has even made preparations to pay for it out of his own pocket.

After all, compared with the possible scientific research results, the testing fee of 100,000 US dollars is not unacceptable. Just think that Chen Qi has a good idea and has contributed to the country.

Now I heard that a genetic testing company has offered to sponsor it. Not only does it not charge for the test, but it also gives you another sum of money. How can such a good thing in the world be possible?

Come and try it soon.]

However, there is no free lunch in the world, so Chen Qi still needs to be more careful.

"Does Sysmex have any requirements? I think they can't give money for no reason, right? What do we need to pay?"

Chie Masako shook her head gently:

"If you have any specific requirements, the president of Sysmex will have to talk to you in person, but I think with our Nipro company behind you, they will definitely not dare to cheat you."

"Okay, let's not be in a hurry to rest. Let's go to Sysmex Company first."

Chie Masako nodded, took out the brick-like mobile phone and started dialing to make an appointment for the two parties to meet.

The business car turned a corner and sped away in another direction of downtown Tokyo.

As Chen Qi's exclusive medical representative, Chie Masako's role is now equivalent to that of a secretary, so it is necessary for her to clearly explain the background of Sysmex to Chen Qi so that Chen Qi can have a reference before negotiating.

In 1986, gene companies were still a new thing in China, but in developed countries, in the eyes of some discerning people, they have long been a golden target.

For example, Illumina and Thermo Fisher in China, Cambridge Horizon Discovery in England, Roche in Switzerland, etc., have all carried out genetic engineering.

There are many companies, and if there is money to be made, there will be competition.

Sysmex is a new company established under this background. Although it has invested a lot of scientific research funds and purchased a large amount of equipment, the hardware is definitely world-class.

It’s not just about first-rate equipment. It’s not easy to carve out a niche among international giants.

Not to mention international competition, even in Japan, Sysmex is not the largest genetics company.

Above them is the National Cancer Center, which has a government background and occupies the largest cake in Japan.

Therefore, Sysmex is completely trying to survive in the cracks. If it is not careful, a big wave may hit it and it may be over. But for Sysmex’s boss Yuto Takada, this is absolutely unacceptable.
p>

Because it has cost him almost 300 million U.S. dollars to set up the company. If he loses everything, he and the small consortium behind him will not be able to bear it.

In the 1980s, genetic testing companies mainly served hospitals and medical research institutions, and they also wanted to please these people, but these people have long been taken into the accounts of giant companies.

But now Sysmex and Sweden's Aslila are facing the same dilemma.

That is, there are no good cooperative hospitals, no top experts and professors, and lack of visibility in the industry. Without fame, you cannot receive big orders. This is a vicious cycle.

Gao Nanyouren, who urgently needs to get into the medical circle, his eyes lit up when he learned that the company had received a commission from China.

What is a hero?

A hero is someone who can discover business opportunities that others cannot, seize opportunities that others cannot, and dare to challenge when faced with an unknown opportunity.

After all, neonatal pneumonia is a rare disease internationally, with a one-in-a-million chance.

Cancer cells may be transmitted through mother-to-child transmission, which has absolutely no relevant reports internationally. It can be said that the Chinese medical team was the first to propose this concept.

If this inference is finally confirmed through genetic testing, then this will point out another new direction for the genetic testing industry.

At the same time, the companies involved in this genetic testing project will also receive widespread attention.

Isn’t this the best advertisement?

And Yuto Takada is also keenly aware that fortunately this subject is only for China. If this was the first time it was proposed in Japan, it would not be their turn to do this test at Sysmex.

I believe that European and American countries will be very interested in this topic and will even steal it from their peers at all costs.

Sitting in the office, Yuto Takada said to his secretary with emotion:

"We are so lucky that this topic was discovered by us. We will become a partner of the Chinese research team at all costs."

The secretary stood nearby, still doubtful:

"But President, China is so poor and backward, are they really capable of doing these high-tech topics? Could this be academic fraud?"

Takada Yuto chuckled:

"What you said is entirely possible, but so what? What if it is true? Didn't we let go of an excellent opportunity? Besides, even if it is a fake subject, how much will we lose? Just how much

The cost of each test is yours."

When the secretary heard this, he suddenly understood and shouted in surprise:

"As expected, the president is wise, sees further and thinks more thoroughly. I admire him so much!"

Yuuto Takada smiled so hard that his molars were almost exposed:

"You, hurry up and greet Doctor Hua Guo."

Half an hour later, Chen Qi appeared in the office.

Yuto Takada quickly walked out from behind the desk, held Chen Qi's hand tightly, and said in English in an exaggerated manner:
To be continued...
