"My feet don't stink even if I don't wash them!"
Wen Liang said contemptuously: "Don't say these empty words, just tell me whether you washed it or not. If you didn't wash it, I definitely won't help you wipe the wine!"
Miao Qingyan blinked curiously and asked, "Mysophobia?"
"This is self-discipline..."
"Heh," Miao Qingyan laughed and said, "Hurry up, I'm not asking you to lick me, you dawdling bitch, are you?"
Wen Liang was defeated immediately, and Miao Qingyan hit him with a stick and then gave him a sweet date: "I kicked the elevator door because you were angry. This is called making up for one's sin. At most, I will treat you to dinner tomorrow."
What else could Wen Liang say? He put his fingers into the bowl, scooped up a little wine and gently applied it to the joints of his toes. Miao Qingyan felt an itch on her toes and was about to retract her toes subconsciously, but she forced herself to hold back. She looked at Wen Liang's profile and suddenly asked, "Is the beautiful woman who came to see you this morning your girlfriend?"
Wen Liang raised his head and smiled, "I thought so. You turned a blind eye to me downstairs just now. So you were jealous?" Ning Xi was right. Although the capital was big, it was also small enough. It would be easy to be exposed if you were not careful.
Miao Qingyan smiled charmingly and said, "Yes, yes, I ate a big jar of old vinegar. It's so sour that I feel sick in my stomach. Come on, confess!"
Wen Liang hesitated and said, "No, she's a friend of mine who does business with me. She doesn't like people making jokes about her. Don't say anything about her girlfriend anymore, okay?"
Miao Qingyan stuck out her tongue and said, "Why are you so serious? I won't say anything."
After wiping off the wine, Wen Liang went to the bathroom to wash his hands. When he came out, he saw Miao Qingyan still lying on the sofa, watching TV with the remote control in her hand. He asked in surprise, "Why haven't you left yet? Did your roommate bring her boyfriend back again?"
Miao Qingyan laughed and said, "That's not the case. She's working overtime in the lab tonight, and it would be boring for me to stay alone. Since you're alone too, why don't you let me stay for another night, okay?"
Wen Liang felt a headache coming on, so he decided to change the subject and asked, "Laboratory? What kind of experiments are you doing?"
Speaking of her major, Miao Qingyan immediately perked up and said seriously, "It's her mentor's research project team, not mine, OK? Specifically, they are currently researching the development of therapeutic and preventive CTL multi-epitope vaccines for hepatitis B, and there has been no breakthrough progress yet..."
Wen Liang felt his head hurt even more, so he made a stop gesture and said, "OK, I got it. What about you? What are you researching?"
"As for me, my mentor is one of the leaders in clinical pharmacology research in China. In recent years, he has been engaged in the research and development of the production process of Melatonin..."
Wen Liang leaned back on the sofa and said helplessly: "Meow Meow, can you please stop bullying illiterate people?"
"Haha, it's actually a type of melatonin. Its Chinese name is 'Mian Na Don Ning' or 'Mei Le Tong Ning'. You wouldn't understand even if I told you. Why are you asking this?"
“Melatonin?”
Wen Liang thought the name was interesting. As the name suggests, could it also make people whiter? However, he had no interest in these medical terms that sounded rather profound. He picked up the remote control and randomly changed channels. There happened to be a channel playing an advertisement for Sanshu Oral Liquid, shouting the slogan of revitalizing the national industry and striving to become the country's top taxpayer. The familiar scene brought back some memories of his previous life. He couldn't help but stop changing the channel and was stunned for a moment.
Miao Qingyan was about to enthusiastically explain what melatonin is, but Wen Liang's eyes were unexpectedly attracted by such a crudely made advertisement. She pouted and said, "What's so good about this? It's hyped up to be miraculous. It's just bifidobacteria mixed with boiled water, packaged and sold to deceive the people."
The play "Working Adventures" performed by Zhao Lirong and Gong Hanlin in the 1996 Spring Festival Gala caused a strong response as soon as it was broadcast, and the lines in the play soon became widely quoted by the whole society. For example, Zhao Lirong's line "It's actually Erguotou diluted with boiled water" was put into practice by Miao Qingyan, revealing an inexplicable sense of humor.
"Bifidobacterium? Okay, no need to explain. I don't understand anyway. But from what you said, your melatonin is much more effective than bifidobacterium?"
"That's different. You can't compare them like that. Bifidobacterium does have a certain effect on the intestines, constipation, or preventing and treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but the effect is very limited and it is not irreplaceable. It has a history of 100 years since its discovery. The production process is very mature and the technical content is not high. Sanshu brags about its oral liquid on TV every day, as if it can cure all diseases. It's really shameless!"
Wen Liang smiled and said, "Ordinary people regard it as medicine, but Wu Jiaxin regards it as a business first. When doing business, it is necessary to exaggerate appropriately, especially for health care products. It is true that they are useful to some people, but many people also experience side effects after taking them. It is hard to say who is right and who is wrong... Hmm..."
Wen Liang suddenly paused, his face changing from gloomy to bright. After a while, he turned around and asked, "Can you tell me more about the melatonin you mentioned just now?"
"Of course you can," Miao Qingyan complained about Sanshu. It would be better if Wen Liang was fickle. This question was exactly what she wanted, so she hurriedly said, "Around the mid-1980s, Americans discovered the 'pineal gland' at the top of the diencephalon of vertebrates - a gland the size of a pine nut. American anti-aging research experts studied the melatonin it can secrete and found that it can effectively improve people's sleep quality and delay people's aging to a certain extent. Of course, this statement is still controversial, but Rigelson, Walter and others published an article in the journal Cell. The experiment proved that they transplanted the pineal glands of young mice into old mice, thereby extending the lifespan of the mice. Therefore, in recent years, health products related to the pineal gland have been selling very well abroad. Domestic research has begun since 1994, and various universities and research institutions have conducted research, but, hey, hey, we got there first in the end!"
"Oh, what do you mean?"
"At the end of last month, on the first day after the New Year, perhaps it was a New Year's gift from God that the production process of Melatonin was a complete success. The purity of the raw powder of similar products can reach 99.99%, which is 1.49 percentage points higher than the US national standard of 98.5%. In other words, we can now mass-produce Melatonin, and the quality is the best in the world!"
(Note: Melatonin seems to be the most successful research by the Institute of Clinical Pharmacology of Anhui Medical University, but it’s just YY, no need to delve into it. If there are readers from Anhui Medical University, Wanzi bows and apologizes)
Wen Liang joked: "Our country's medical standards are actually higher than those of the United States. This fully demonstrates the superiority of socialism. It's cause for celebration!"
Miao Qingyan could hear his ironic tone, and for the first time ever, she smiled bitterly and said, "The country's strength is here. If you really follow foreign standards, many drugs may not even come off the production line. Between having a drug that can save lives but may have side effects, and having no drug at all, which one would you choose?"
Wen Liang sighed and said, "What you said makes sense, but the problem is that the national economy is developing, but some aspects have been lagging behind, and the government bureaucracy is so serious that the standards from ten years ago may still be in use ten years later. Does it mean that after twenty or thirty years of development, we are still unable to meet international standards in terms of medicines, food, drinking water and other basic living needs related to people's livelihood?"
Miao Qingyan giggled and said, "Why are you taking it so seriously? I'm not going to argue with you, because as a future doctor, I also hope that there will be such a day, and it will come as soon as possible. But these are all things that the big shots living behind the red walls worry about, and ordinary people like us can't do anything. Don't earn a salary of 1.83 yuan, but think of yourself as a master who makes tens of billions of dollars every day..."
"One dollar and eighty-three cents? Picking up scraps should earn you more than that, right?"
"Illiterate!" Miao Qingyan instantly transformed into a literary young woman, her eyes sparkling, and said: "You haven't heard of the poem in "Paper Money"? It's an inspirational legend of a security guard. On a snowy night, he wrote an immortal chapter in modern poetry..."
Wen Liang then remembered the tall security guard in the Imperial Garden who had become a poet. He had never expected that he had become so famous that even Miao Qingyan, who was far away in the capital, knew him and seemed to admire him very much.
"Didn't I ask you to talk about melatonin? Why are you getting off topic?"
"Do you have any shame? Who was the first to go off topic?" Miao Qingyan glared at him angrily, but immediately got back to the point and said, "The basic function of melatonin is to participate in the antioxidant system. It is the strongest endogenous free radical scavenger discovered so far. It can effectively control the endocrine activity of the whole body. It will gradually decrease with the increase of human age. Therefore, appropriate and appropriate supplementation can regulate the body's biological rhythm, improve sleep quality, and also help prevent some diseases..."
"In other words, as a health product, it is qualified?"
Miao Qingyan said: "Didn't you say that there is no unified standard for judging health foods? It may be safe, but it may not be qualified under a certain standard!"
Wen Liang nodded and fell into deep thought. After an unknown amount of time, he said, "Can you arrange a time for me to meet with your mentor?"
Miao Qingyan was able to study at the Beijing Medical University, so she was definitely not an idiot. She was surprised and asked, "You... are you going to..."
Wen Liang smiled and said, "Not necessarily. Let's talk about it first! How can scientific research in universities be transformed into productivity? Hasn't it always been a headache for your colleges and universities? Since we have a chance to meet, maybe I can give you a favor and help your tutor!"
Miao Qingyan's eyes lit up, and she rushed over to grab Wen Liang's shoulders and asked, "Really?"
"If you grab it lightly..." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets on Qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation.) (To be continued)
