"Miaoli, what’s with all the commotion? We don’t have many patients, but you don’t have to be *this* excited."
Guo Yu heard Miaoli’s cry and looked up from his desk, asking curiously.
Miaoli was too worked up to answer. She rushed over to Guo Yu, excitedly holding the journal and pointing to the author section. "Director, Director, look! It’s Li Xu! It’s Li Xu! He actually published a paper in *The Lancet*!"
Director Guo took the journal skeptically.
He glanced at where Miaoli was pointing. When he saw the na "Li Xu" and the paper’s title, he froze.
As a senior doctor of traditional Chinese dicine, he knew exactly what it ant to publish a paper in *The Lancet*.
It wasn’t just the highest affirmation of one’s personal academic achievents; it was a huge breakthrough for the entire field of traditional Chinese dicine.
What’s more, the paper’s topic was an effective treatnt for the current H1N1 flu epidemic.
’This... how is this possible? Is it soone with the sa na?’
Guo Yu muttered in shock.
He flipped through the paper, from the abstract to the conclusion, then to the detailed experintal data and charts. The more he read, the more stunned he beca.
At the sa ti, he completely ruled out the possibility of it being soone with the sa na.
Because he knew that Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules was developed by Li Xu.
This paper was about the pharmacology of Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules.
’If not Li Xu, who else could it be?’
"Director, Li Xu is incredible," Miaoli said excitedly.
"Yes, he really is."
Guo Yu took a deep breath, calming his excitent.
He picked up the paper and hurried out.
"Director, where are you going?" Miaoli asked.
Without turning back, Guo Yu replied, "I’m going to tell the hospital president. Li Xu is a consultant for our hospital. This needs to be publicized, and widely."
"That’s right! We should publicize it!"
Miaoli’s eyes lit up. She took out her phone and sent a ssage to her old class group chat.
[Miaoli: Big news! Big news! Everyone, go check out the latest issue of *The Lancet*. Li Xu published a paper in it! The title is ’Clinical Efficacy and chanism of Action of Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules in the Treatnt of Influenza A’!!]
The mont the ssage was sent, the class group chat exploded.
[Hu Qiming: What? Miaoli, you’re not joking, are you? I admit Li Xu is good, better than all of us, but *The Lancet*? He’s not qualified for that, is he?!]
[Lu Junwei: Holy crap, Miaoli, are you drunk? It’s *The Lancet*! That’s a top-tier global dical journal. No matter how amazing Li Xu is, that’s impossible, right?]
[Jiang Peng: Impossible... Li Xu can solve difficult and complex cases, sure, but publishing a paper, especially in a top international journal like this, requires extensive research data. Where would he get it?]
[Li Baojie: Holy crap, I’m downloading the digital version right now. If this is real, I’ll live-stream myself eating a keyboard!]
Amid their shock, the forr classmates voiced their doubts.
But with Miaoli’s adamant assurances, and driven by curiosity, so of them quickly went to check the digital edition of *The Lancet*.
When the title, "Clinical Efficacy and chanism of Action of Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules in the Treatnt of Influenza A," and the author’s na, "Li Xu," appeared brazenly before their eyes, the entire class group chat went into a total frenzy.
[Hu Qiming: HOLY SHIT! It’s real! It’s really real! Li Xu is a god!]
[Lu Junwei: Oh my god, I feel like I’m dreaming. Li Xu is a legend! To actually publish in *The Lancet*... he’s brought glory to all of us from traditional Chinese dicine schools!]
[Jiang Peng: My god, one of our classmates is now a giant who’s published in *The Lancet*. Who would dare say traditional Chinese dicine is useless now?]
[Li Baojie: I’ve got my keyboard ready... Li Xu, I’m not worthy! Boss, please accept my worship!]
[Hu Qiming: @Li Xu, get in here and treat us all to a al!]
The chat was instantly flooded with ssages of shock, praise, and congratulations.
Everyone rushed to congratulate Li Xu.
As for Li Xu, he had already heard the news of the paper’s publication.
After the eting that day confird the paper’s acceptance, Davis had told Sun Qingshuang, who in turn imdiately inford Li Xu.
Now, all he had to do was wait for things to develop.
Li Xu believed the day when Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules would triumph over Tamiflu Granules was not far off.
「...」
At the newspaper office, reporter Li Yang sat at her computer, browsing the latest dical news.
The H1N1 flu epidemic had been getting worse recently, and as a general news reporter, she was paying extra attention to dical stories.
Suddenly, a striking headline caught her eye:
*The Lancet* Publishes Landmark Study: Dragon Country’s Patent Chinese dicine, Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules, Shows Significant Efficacy Against Influenza A.
Li Yang’s eyes lit up.
She imdiately clicked the link and carefully read the professional analysis of *The Lancet* paper.
When she saw the paper’s detailed clinical data and its scientific explanation of the chanism of action for Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules, she was utterly shocked.
She rembered her previous interview with Academician Zhang Lin, and his confident declarations that "Chinese patent dicines are ineffective" and "Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules is a fraudulent product."
And now, this paper in *The Lancet* was undoubtedly a resounding slap in the face to Academician Zhang Lin and other experts like him.
A strong sense of mission welled up inside Li Yang.
She had always felt that so-called "experts" like Zhang Lin were telling bald-faced lies for profit and misleading the public.
And now, the truth was finally laid bare.
She stood up without hesitation and rushed excitedly to the editor-in-chief’s office.
"Editor-in-Chief, I have huge news!"
Li Yang knocked on the door excitedly.
The editor-in-chief was startled by Li Yang’s excitent. He put down the docunts in his hands and asked, perplexed, "Xiao Li, what’s gotten you so happy?"
Li Yang handed her phone to the editor-in-chief, pointing at the report on *The Lancet*. She spoke rapidly, "Editor-in-Chief, look! *The Lancet* published a major paper confirming that a patent Chinese dicine from Dragon Country, Lianhua Suanzaoren Granules, has significant efficacy against the H1N1 flu. And what’s more, the author of this paper is one of our own Dragon Country dical personnel."
The editor-in-chief took the phone and read the report carefully.
When he saw phrases like "*The Lancet*," "Dragon Country patent Chinese dicine," and "highly effective against H1N1 flu," his expression also grew serious.
"This really is big news." The editor-in-chief looked stunned. "A Dragon Country dical professional publishing original research in *The Lancet*, and it’s about a patent Chinese dicine, no less. This is a mont of glory for our country!"
He imdiately realized the imnse news value and impact of this story.
"Imdiately. Right now. We’re running a major feature on this."
The editor-in-chief made a snap decision. "We need to use the most eye-catching headlines, the most detailed content, and get this news out to everyone."
He paused, then suddenly rembered sothing. "Right, who’s the author of the paper? We’ll interview him and dig up the story behind it."
