346: Chapter 346 Officially Launched?

Hearing this, the corners of Lin Yuan's lips curled up slightly, his tone carrying the relaxed air of someone who had everything under control.

"Oh?" He replied with only one word.

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Kai's voice continued, suppressing intense excitement while also carrying reverence and fanaticism.

"Academician Lin."

"All the technical data in the batch of hard drives you left last time... we've been working around the clock, and we've successfully processed it all!"

"The scarless skin regeneration agent for burns, the secondary bone development inducer, the mitochondria-targeted fat burning agent, the perfect pancreatic β-cell remodeling agent..."

"All the drugs have been successfully prepared!"

Zhou Kai's speaking speed accelerated unconsciously, like a rapid-fire cannon, as if he were reporting to his superiors a peerless battle report worthy of being recorded in the annals of human civilization.

"Just like the animal experiment results for those two special drugs from before the new year, the data for all indicators of these drugs is textbook-perfect!"

"No, you could even say... even more perfect than the textbooks."

"Because no existing human medical textbook has ever written that such drugs, which completely defy common sense, could exist in this world!"

Listening to Zhou Kai's report, a smile of affirmation flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes. He chuckled and said:

"Congratulations, Dean Zhou."

On the other end of the line, Zhou Kai felt an indescribable surge of emotion as he listened to Lin Yuan's words.

He could clearly feel the sense of inevitability and lack of agitation in Lin Yuan's tone.

It was as if the earth-shattering achievement that his side had mobilized the entire research institute to verify, expending countless efforts, was, in Lin Yuan's eyes, nothing more than a to-do item on a schedule being crossed off.

He forcibly suppressed the excitement that was about to spill out of his throat and reported the follow-up plan in a steady tone.

"Academician Lin, the animal experiment data has been organized and sealed. I have planned to restart the special approval channel and urgently apply for Phase I human clinical trials. All procedures are the same as last time."

"I will arrange for someone to send the relevant documents and the volunteer screening plan to your email later."

"For this clinical trial, do you think... you still need to come to the site to guide and observe in person?"

"No need."

Lin Yuan's reply was crisp and decisive, as always.

"You followed the entire clinical process last time and have sufficient experience. You can handle it independently this time."

"I won't be coming over."

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone.

Zhou Kai let out a long sigh of relief, then smiled as if a burden had been lifted.

"Understood."

There was not a hint of disappointment at being ignored in his tone, only a sense of realization that "it was just as expected."

"To be honest, I expected you wouldn't come before I made the call."

"But as part of the protocol, I had to make this call."

Zhou Kai said solemnly.

"At the end of the day, you are the source of these achievements, and we cannot, and dare not, bypass you."

Hearing this, Lin Yuan chuckled as well.

"Being able to have these results today is inseparable from the entire team fighting on the front lines."

"Academician Lin, don't be so modest."

Zhou Kai's laughter this time carried a touch of heartfelt emotion.

"You directly shoved the treasure map, the key, and the instruction manual for unlocking it into our hands."

"Our group, outwardly called scientific research attackers, is actually very clear in our hearts; we are just executors following the map."

"However, on behalf of the entire team, I thank you for your trust."

Zhou Kai's tone became sincere.

After a brief silence, his voice deepened, adding a bit of the sensitivity of a healer.

"Honestly, Academician Lin, every time I see these groundbreaking experimental data, what I'm actually thinking about isn't some scientific research achievement, but..."

"The day these drugs truly reach society!"

His voice carried a slight tremor.

"Millions of burn patients across the country will be freed from the scars and pain that accompany them for life..."

"Countless young people who are insecure because of their height or obesity will be reborn because of this, walking in the sun with their heads held high..."

"And those elderly people suffering from chronic diseases can enjoy their later years in peace, instead of counting down their lives in pain..."

"Even that 'undying cancer' that steals the happiness of countless families every year—diabetes—will also become history!"

"Once these drugs are on the market, what they will change is the fate of hundreds of millions of people!"

"The entire world's medical landscape will have to be turned upside down as well."

Lin Yuan listened quietly without interrupting.

Everything Zhou Kai envisioned was a future he had already clearly foreseen when he handed over the hard drives.

All he had done was press the fast-forward button.

"Ahem... Sorry, I lost my composure."

Realizing his emotions were a bit exposed, Zhou Kai quickly composed himself, cleared his throat, and brought the topic back on track.

"In any case, you can rest assured about the clinical side; I swear on my life that we will complete all procedures with the highest efficiency!"

"Academician Lin, you can also rest assured and busy yourself with your own affairs."

"After all, what you are busy with right now..."

Zhou Kai's tone was filled with unconcealable curiosity and reverence.

"Whether it's the Four Great Ascension Systems, or that 'second world'..."

"Compared to the grand blueprint you are pushing, the stubborn diseases we are overcoming here feel like small stuff."

Hearing this, Lin Yuan shook his head gently.

"It's different."

"What you are doing is allowing the people living now to live better and with more dignity. This is a question of 'breadth'."

"What I am doing is providing a brand new way of living for the people of the future. This is a question of 'height'."

"The former is the cornerstone of civilization; the latter is the towering palace."

"Without a solid cornerstone, all palaces are just castles in the air."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds.

When Zhou Kai's voice sounded again, it held unprecedented firmness and a sense of mission.

"Understood, Academician Lin!"

"We will definitely make this cornerstone unbreakable!"

"Good."

Lin Yuan responded with satisfaction.

Subsequently, Zhou Kai's voice sounded again, carrying a joyfulness as if about to reveal a surprise.

"By the way, Academician Lin! There is one more great piece of news; I almost forgot to report it to you in my excitement just now!"

"Hm?" Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Those two drugs from before the new year, the Hair Growth and Strengthening Agent and the Vitality Nourishing Agent, have completed all approval processes!"

"The mass production line has also completed its final capacity ramp-up and stress testing in the last half month!"

Zhou Kai's laughter was practically spilling out of the receiver.

"In other words, these two miracle drugs, which are enough to detonate the global market, can soon..."

"Be officially on the market!"
