Chapter 59: Hope for Cancer Patients

Soon, a report personally signed by Academician Liu Ai Hua and jointly stamped by the National Medical Research Institute and the P4 Laboratory was sent to the capital at the fastest speed.

It first arrived on the desk of the director of the National Health and Health Committee.

The director was a cadre close to sixty, accustomed to storms, but after reading the report he still uncontrollably shuddered.

After confirming repeatedly that there was no mistake, without the slightest hesitation, he instructed his secretary:

"Secretary Liang, quickly notify the heads of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the National Drug Administration, the State Council General Office… to come to a meeting, fast!"

"Okay, director, I'll go take care of it right away!"

Seeing the director so anxious, the beautiful secretary knew the importance of the matter, responded affirmatively, and hurried off.

After a few more hours, a new report, together with the joint opinions of several major departments, under special escort, finally appeared in Luo Rui Xiang's hands.

Special Envoy Office.

Luo Lao and Zhang Yunfeng stared at this thin report for a full ten minutes.

"Nanorobots, targeted elimination of cancer cells, simulated success rate ninety-nine percent……"

Zhang Yunfeng murmured the keywords from the report, his expression shifting from initial shock to an uncontrollable ecstasy,

"Old Luo, I never expected the medical field to achieve results this quickly; this is far more significant than the lithography machine, thousands or even tens of thousands of times greater!"

"That's correct; this is all the value brought by Xiao Qin."

Luo Lao said that, then gently closed the report, tapped his fingertip on the cover, and his eyes likewise shone with excitement.

Zhang Yunfeng stood up and walked two laps around the office,

"This time it's not businessmen scrambling for plane tickets; I estimate that patients worldwide will have to find a way to come here! Whatever blockades, whatever sanctions, in the face of saving lives, they must step aside!"

"Yes, in the face of saving lives, everything must step aside." Luo Lao repeated, his tone taking on a deeper meaning.

"Yunfeng, this thing is a life-saving weapon, but likewise a weapon that can shake the global landscape; the lithography machine affects industry and economy."

"while it affects every country, every family, every person. It is a trump card, but also a hot potato; once played, there is no turning back."

Zhang Yunfeng also quickly calmed down, understanding Luo Lao's concerns.

Fortunately our country is currently strong enough; if it were a smaller daring nation to publish this news, it would surely have all its technology snatched away.

"Academician Liu Ai Hua, in the report's final section, applied to launch clinical trials." Luo Lao's voice brought Zhang Yunfeng's thoughts back.

"I agree."

Zhang Yunfeng without hesitation said, "This is a good deed that benefits our own people, a great good deed! We cannot stop our steps out of fear of those wolves."

Luo Lao nodded, a hint of a smile appearing on his face:

"The higher-ups mean the same; our technology must first serve our people."

He pondered for a moment, then made a decision:

"Reply to them, immediately launch the first batch of clinical trials. The number of volunteers is set at one hundred, must be confirmed by major hospitals nationwide as cancer patients in the late stage for whom existing medical means are ineffective."

He paused, then added a sentence of great weight:

"Tell them, from examination to treatment the entire process is free, all costs borne by the state."

"Good!"

Zhang Yunfeng waved his hand firmly, "Just like this! Let the world see what it means for a major power to take responsibility!"

That afternoon, an announcement was released through the official channel of the Yanhuang Guo National Medical Research Institute.

【Major good news: Our country's "Targeted Nanorobot Therapy" has achieved a major breakthrough in the field of cancer treatment; to ensure the technology's safety and efficacy, we have decided to launch the first batch of clinical trials.

This trial is open nationwide, publicly recruiting one hundred late-stage cancer patients as volunteers. All medical expenses incurred in this clinical trial will be borne by the state. Registration and consultation channels are as follows……

After the announcement was released, the entire Yanhuang Guo's internet instantly exploded.

At first, it was a flood of skepticism.

"What kind of joke is this? Nanorobots treating cancer? My instructor just last month said this is technology more than ten years away!"

"Another scam? How could there be such a good thing, plus completely free? Beware of a new type of fraud."

"Those upstairs, look clearly: the publisher is the National Medical Research Institute! It's the state, not some Putian‑type outfit!"

The voices of doubt were quickly drowned out by a far greater wave, formed by countless families struggling in despair, converging into a torrent of hope.

In a hospital ward, a young man in his twenties, eyes red, wiped the body of his mother lying on the bed, emaciated to skin and bone.

His phone "dinged" with a sound, a news push.

He glanced at it absentmindedly; the next second, his whole body froze as if struck by lightning.

He read that short announcement over and over, his lips trembling, tears bursting forth uncontrollably.

He lunged to the bedside, clutching his mother's withered hand, his voice choking up beyond coherence:

"Mom, you're saved, we're saved, the state hasn't forgotten us."

Elsewhere, a middle‑aged couple had just left the doctor's office; the wife's lung cancer had metastasized throughout her body, the doctor saying she had at most three months left.

The two sat on the hospital bench, silent, the air filled with deathly stillness.

The husband's phone suddenly vibrated wildly, several relatives and friends calling at the same time.

He numbly answered one; from the other end came his younger brother's excited voice: "Brother! Quickly look at the news! Your sister‑in‑law's cancer can be treated!"

"What are you saying! Is it really true?"

The middle‑aged man stared, thinking his brother was joking, but when he opened his phone and saw that message,

this man in his forties could no longer hold back, covering his face and letting out a sob he had suppressed for a long time.

His wife beside him, from initial bewilderment to disbelief, finally they embraced and wept with joy.

That day, countless families in Yanhuang Guo enacted the same scene.

The official registration website, five minutes after going online, became abnormally slow due to a sudden surge in traffic.

The consultation hotline, from the very first second it was connected, has never been disconnected; the receiver is forever a busy signal of a line in use.

This scene is a hundred times crazier than snatching tickets during the Spring Festival travel rush, a hundred times crazier than grabbing goods on Double 11.

Because this time, they are not looting goods, but lives!

At the same time, this news spread overseas at the fastest speed.

In Yingjiang Guo, on the evening news of FMM TV Station, a blond, blue-eyed medical expert was speaking fluently to the camera, a hint of contempt in his smile.

"This is absolutely the biggest joke of the century! Nanorobots precisely eliminating cancer cells? Isn't this technology still under research?"

How did they solve the biocompatibility problem? How do they precisely control it? This is pure fantasy, outright political propaganda.

"I dare say, this is just another smoke bomb they released to cover up some failures."

Several top pharmaceutical companies of the O State Alliance also jointly issued a statement, reminding global patients to stay rational and beware of unverified false medical information.

Their reaction was arrogant and uniform, just like when they initially evaluated the "Heaven and Earth One".

But they didn't realize that, while they were still mocking this on TV as fantasy, countless cancer patients in Yanhuang Guo had already taken this experiment as their only hope.
