Chapter 103 Lasker Medicine Award
"Hello, is this Mr. Wei?"

"It's me, who are you?" Wei Kang looked at the Yingguo phone number displayed on his phone and asked in doubt.

Under normal circumstances, he would not answer any overseas calls from strangers, but a few days ago the administration department received a strange email.

The email claimed to be the Lasker Foundation of Yingguo Xincun, announcing that Wei Kang had won the Lasker Clinical Medical Research Award this year, and would personally announce the matter to him within a few days and extend his sincere congratulations.

At first, the administrative department thought it was a phishing email from overseas, but after searching for the Lasker Medical Award, they found out that it was a very important award, and quickly forwarded it to Wei Kang, so that's how they got the call.

"Hello, this is the Lasker Foundation in Xincun. My name is George and I am a member of the review committee. It is a great honor to inform you, Dear Mr. Wei, that you have won this year's Lasker Clinical Medical Research Award."

"Originally there were dozens of nominees, but their achievements compared with yours are like fireflies compared with the sun, and they suddenly paled. Your achievements last year are amazing. Not only did you miraculously cure cancer, Also has a respectable accomplishment in the field of neurodegenerative diseases. So stands out early to receive this honor."

"We will officially announce this news later and mail you an official invitation letter. Your company's mailbox will also receive an email with detailed award collection dates and other matters. If you have any questions , you can call back this number, or call the number of the award committee office in the email."

Wei Kang was very happy to hear that, and quickly thanked: "Okay, thank you!"

He suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "Excuse me, I want to ask, how much bonus is there? And if I can't walk away, can someone claim it for me?"

The other party replied very kindly: "We understand that scientists are very busy and focus on their own careers, so of course they can receive it on their behalf. As for the bonus, it is a meager 30 US dollars, which depends on your identity and your achievements. Naturally, it’s nothing compared to what I’ve achieved, but it’s a badge of honour.”

"Well, if you don't have any doubts, I won't bother you. After all, your time can save many lives. Congratulations on your award again, and express my respect to you, and look forward to seeing you in Xincun Mr. Wei, after all, all of us are very curious about you."

Wei Kang hung up the phone and informed the administration of the news.

Not long after, the administration department forwarded the received email.

At the same time, announce this good news within the company.

All the staff immediately cheered.

"Wow, Mr. Wei is awesome. The Lasker Medicine Award is known as the weathervane of the Nobel Prize. It is the highest award in Eagle Country's medical field."

"It is said that scientists who win this award will become Nobel Prize winners this year or in the next few years."

"I doubt that Mr. Wei will win the Nobel Prize in October this year."

"Remove the word doubt, if this year's Nobel Prize is not awarded to the boss, it will lose its fairness, and no one will accept it."

"Mr. Wei has developed an anti-cancer drug and a special drug for AD. These are all breakthrough achievements in the world. It can be said that there is no one before or after."

"Haha, I have to go to congratulate the boss. When the boss is happy, he may give everyone red envelopes again."

Although everyone's income is good, the most basic administrative clerks have 10,000+ a year, and the R&D personnel can easily earn hundreds of thousands a year.

But I am very happy to receive a red envelope from Mr. Wei, and feel a little happy.

Mr. Wei is so generous to everyone, he pays high wages, and gives enough bonuses. If such a boss wins an award, everyone is really happy for him.

The Lasker Medal of Medicine is a top award in the medical field after the Nobel Prize, and it is also the most prestigious biomedical award in Eagle Country.

The award has a history of more than 70 years and aims to recognize scientists, doctors and public service personnel who have made outstanding contributions in the fields of life sciences and medicine.

The discoveries and achievements of the laureates not only expand human cognition, but also affect thousands of people.Their achievements have stood the rigorous test of time and science, and have benefited the world.

The award is divided into three categories: basic medicine award, clinical medicine award and public service award. Later, a special contribution award was added. The first two awards are specially awarded to scientists. The winners usually receive the Nobel Prize in the following year or several years. prize.

The award winners are selected by a review committee composed of outstanding scientists from all over the world. Being able to win awards often represents the recognition and admiration of authoritative experts in the medical and academic circles.

The first winner in China was Ms. Tu Youyou, who was awarded for her discovery of artemisinin, which is used to treat malaria, and saved millions of lives around the world, especially in developing countries.Four years later she won the Nobel Prize.

Also honored celebrities are Bill and his wife, who have received public service awards for their philanthropic investments in the fields of medicine and health that have improved the lives of millions of poor people.

In short, this is a very great honor, but Wei Kang didn't take it too seriously.

His current achievements no longer need any awards to prove it. On the contrary, if a top award does not have his name, it has no authority and loses its fairness.

He cured cancer and Alzheimer's disease. These two achievements are enough to win two Nobel Prizes and become one of the greatest scientists in human history.

However, no matter how big or small the award is, it represents the recognition and goodwill of the world and colleagues, and Wei Kang accepted it with pleasure.

For various industry honors around the world, most of the winners are Westerners, and a small number of them are from other countries. The East is not ranked at all.

There are only a handful of winners of the Nobel Prize and other awards, probably no more than ten, and many of them are not of Chinese nationality.

These awards are a manifestation of international academic influence, and can also attract more talents.

Looking through the long list of Nobel Prizes, one can often see the entire history of mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and medicine, countless familiar discoveries and laws, all come from these winners.

Every time Wei Kang sees these lists, he often has a strong touch in his heart.

This entire award-winning catalog is the cornerstone of the entire modern science.

And the names of Chinese people are pitifully few in it, almost negligible.

China's basic disciplines are still too weak, and technological breakthroughs are often inseparable from the development of basic disciplines.

It is the discoveries and laws of these basic disciplines that have developed all the technology and life that human beings have today.

We must change this status quo, and we should have a place in it.

Wei Kang thought silently, and made a new decision on Sanqing's future development direction.

An idea came to mind, Huaxia should also have its own world-class awards, with high bonuses to encourage all scientific researchers to conduct more basic scientific research.

When Nobel established the award, he was also a local rich entrepreneur, and Wei Kang, also a local rich entrepreneur, established a world-class science award, which is very reasonable and can be regarded as a tribute to his predecessors.

The bonus standard of the Nobel Prize is very high. Nobel believed that the bonus should support scientists to devote themselves to scientific research for 20 years without salary.

He Wei Kang can also!

Compared with money, he was never afraid.

As long as Sanqing exists, this award will always exist, and it will have a steady stream of funding.

However, the details need to be carefully considered.

Excited, he quickly replied to the email, saying that he had more important things to do and couldn't leave for the time being, and the person in charge of Sanqing's laboratory would pick it up on his behalf.

He is planning to send Chen Yiqing as the deputy leader. Lao Chen has devoted many years to Alzheimer's disease and deserves this honor even more. He even thinks it is unfair that the jury did not include Sanqing's research and development team.

Afterwards, Sanqing posted the good news on the official website, which immediately triggered congratulations from the entire network, and the sound of congratulations continued.

Academician Qi, Academician Xie, and Academician Chang sent congratulatory messages one after another, and even Academician Tu expressed his congratulations in a rare way.

Moments later, the news that Wei Kang won the Lasker Medicine Award blasted the internet.

And quickly boarded the headlines of major news, as well as the top search list.

　Thank you Taoist Yuming for your 100 tip, thank you for your support.
