Chapter 285: Umbrella Released
Wang Yi swept through more than a dozen marked points in Tokyo and temporarily stayed at the Inaichi Shrine while waiting for news from other shrines and Onmyoji.
Umbrella Corporation's operations never stopped for a moment.
The new drug 'Ankangding' has come out and it is killing people indiscriminately, its efficacy is too strong!
Many people have found that the quality of sleep after taking "Ankangding" is so good that they will be full of energy the next day after taking it!
And it does not mean that you have to sleep for a long time after taking "Ankangding". As long as you get up according to your sleep cycle, you can achieve excellent results.
In fact, human sleep is in a fluctuating pattern. It will go from light sleep to deep sleep and then return to light sleep, with a cycle of about one and a half to two hours. Making sure to wake up during the light sleep period will reduce the headache when getting up suddenly.
The instructions for "Ankangding" also have detailed divisions. As long as you take it at a fixed time and set the alarm, some people who only sleep five or six hours a day can ensure that they are full of energy throughout the day!
What’s even more exaggerated is that some people can achieve this effect after three sleep cycles or more than four hours of sleep, which is completely different from their previous sleep quality.
'Ankangding' itself is a sleep aid, which has an indirect effect by regulating the 5-hydroxytryptamine secreted by the human body.
It is fundamentally different from strong anesthetics that directly inhibit the central nervous system.
The sleep-inducing effect can also be forced by willpower, as long as you don't lie down in bed immediately after taking it. If you take it in the morning, you will usually feel sleepy during the lunch break. If you take it in the afternoon, you will feel sleepy at around 8 or 9 in the evening. But if you take it directly before 11 pm and go to bed, you will be able to fall asleep almost immediately.
For example, criminals use drugs that can cause people to faint, which usually act directly on the central nervous system and inhibit its activity, causing the person to enter a "coma" state rather than a "sleep" state.
Moreover, anesthetics usually take effect quickly, and if the dosage is wrong, it can be life-threatening. Therefore, many criminals now choose DP to commit crimes for "safety". The person is awake, but will have blackouts.
In comparison, 'Ankangding' is a typical sleep aid with excellent effect , and it is impossible to use it for crime.
Coupled with the effect of assisting in improving sleep, this really made people excited and ignited the global network. So many people talked about its magic and effects that it suppressed all the heat.
Because the pharmacological toxicity and addiction were tested with quite exaggerated control groups, many elites and CEOs began to use this after it was proven to be sufficiently safe.
Even if there is no sleep disorder, who would complain about having good sleep quality?
That’s almost like having an extra hour or two every day!
In an instant, the production of "Ankangding", which was originally estimated to be sufficient, seemed to be in a state of emergency again. The reserves that had been stockpiled when production started in advance and waiting for review were rapidly decreasing.
The company had to immediately open a new factory in China in addition to Hengsan and quickly increase production capacity to ensure that demand was met.
At the same time, this also means that the profits that "Ankangding" can bring will exceed expectations!
But soon the Umbrella official website also issued a notice, and even increased the traffic on TT to give reminders.
"All users of 'Ankangding' must be careful. If you do not need pain relief, depression treatment or other effects, and just want to help you sleep, you only need to take it once at night and do not take it again during the day, so as not to cover up some warnings from the body.
"Also, if you still feel any discomfort after taking Ankangding, please go to the hospital immediately. This drug has an excellent analgesic effect and can easily cover up some problems that need to be observed."
These reminder notices from Umbrella were immediately picked up and discussed by curious netizens.
"Haha, after I ate during the day, I can beat ten people by myself. They don't even feel pain when they hit me. I just punch them twice and they start crying for their parents."
"It's so funny. After taking Ankangding, I'm not afraid of zombies."
"If the King of Hell wants me to die at three o'clock in the morning, Ankang will surely keep me alive until five o'clock."
"Wow, this opens the door to a new world. Is Ankangding a banned drug? Will the contestants use it?"
"Ankangding has no invigorating effect and cannot increase strength or explosiveness, but fighters may actually use it."
"But let me be frank. Everyone please pay attention to what Umbrella has reminded you of. Don't be misled."
"Don't say anything. Just taking it at night won't mislead you. I had an appendicitis attack at night and didn't pay attention. When I woke up the next morning after the effect of the medicine wore off, I felt like dying."
"Detailed."
"Is there anyone who knows what's going on?"
"Didn't the Johnson & Johnson lab say last time that the hydrolysis products are nutrients? So when the drug loses its effectiveness, it will lose its effectiveness very quickly, and it won't take time for you to feel it."
"So if there really is a problem, it will be more obvious in the morning?"
“It seems to be true…”
"But everyone should still be careful. Umbrella is right. We must pay attention to abdominal pain. Appendectomy is actually very troublesome when it comes to emergency treatment. The golden treatment period is 24 to 72 hours. In addition, the most important thing is to worry about the pancreas."
"Actually, Ankangding is pretty good. It's not the mechanism of action of anesthetics that inhibits nerve reactions, but the body's self-regulation to suppress pain. If it's a local anesthetic, you won't feel anything when you cut your flesh, but with Ankangding, you'll still feel pain when you get hit, but the pain will decrease rapidly."
"It is also very effective for colds. One pill will work and make you feel better."
"Idiot, that just suppresses the cold. You still have to recover on your own. We don't actually have any medicine to cure the cold right now."
“…”
There are actually not many diseases that humans have completely conquered today, and there is no doubt that the common cold has not been conquered by humans.
Currently, all cold medicines available to humans fall into four categories: the first category is anti-allergic, the second category is to inhibit nasal mucosal congestion and relieve symptoms, the third category is to clear heat and reduce inflammation, and the fourth category is to inhibit viral replication.
The main purpose is to allow people to get enough rest and let the body's own immune system solve the problem.
Many compound cold medicines simply mix these four effects together, so just take them anyway.
Moreover, almost every type of cold medicine is inherently toxic, especially those that inhibit virus replication. Because they usually act directly on some biological enzymes and proteins, they are also harmful to the human body and have many side effects. Therefore, antiviral drugs are generally not prescribed easily. For some mild symptoms, the side effects of the drugs may be greater than the damage caused by the virus.
Now the effect of 'Ankangding' on cold symptoms is really a bit like the hormone drugs used in clinics before.
Many people say that small clinics have miracle doctors who can cure diseases with medicine. In fact, that is because small clinics dare to use medicine.
A mixture of multiple hormone drugs can make you jump around for a while after being bitten by a zombie.
But the side effects of hormonal drugs are there, and it is very likely that the damage caused to the body by that injection will exceed the cold itself.
'Ankangding' is to some extent an almost perfect substitute, and may even be more effective.
Even pain levels like trigeminal neuralgia and gout can be temporarily suppressed, allowing patients to have a good rest and a good sleep, improving their physical fitness, enhancing their resistance, and making them extremely comfortable...
Taking advantage of the popularity of "Ankangding" and the explosion of greater potential, Umbrella also went to Prussia to purchase a large number of industrial machine tools and some precision instrument machine tools.
This sudden incident actually scared quite a few people.
Because some machine tools are already a bit sensitive, especially since Umbrella and the East have a good relationship, they must consider the whereabouts of these machine tools!
To put it bluntly, these machine tools themselves are sufficient for military use!
Then Umbrella typed out the purchase application instructions.
We want to develop new products for Purdue Pharma and make artificial organs!
Artificial heart, semi-artificial heart and artificial kidney!
Umbrella even published several papers on related structures and applied for some structure-related patents, and also signaled to Purdue Pharma's shareholders.
The profit of this thing is also very high!
Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases cause the highest number of deaths worldwide each year.
Among cardiovascular diseases, many people suffer from myocardial infarction due to myocardial ischemia.
Otherwise, the paper on cardiomyocytes would not have caused such a sensation.
In fact, we have artificial hearts now, but they still have various problems and great limitations.
Although the new paper released by Umbrella has not yet been tested on humans, the simulation and restoration data of heart function have been verified by supercomputing.
"Right now, our company is importing some new machine tools and preparing to further optimize the design, and the location will also be in Mexico."
After seeing the future money prospects, the stakeholders of Purdue Pharma were immediately enlightened.
If heart problems can really be solved, if the heart can really be perfectly replaced, then the potential will be beyond imagination!
And not all rich people have a good heart!
They now worked together to help Umbrella obtain these industrial equipment.
Can't they see what Umbrella is thinking?
So much just for an artificial heart?
In fact, it is obvious that Umbrella must have some other plans, but so what?
We must put our interests first!
As for the risk, we all share it.
Anyway, the equipment is in Mexico and it is part of our beautiful back garden, so it doesn’t matter.
There are even many investors who didn't get any benefits from Ankangding before and are now jealous and saying that you should just start a new company for this artificial heart, otherwise your Purdue Pharmaceuticals is too diverse.
This has actually led to some mutual attacks among some capitals.
Artificial organs are also medical devices, Purdue Pharma can also be involved, what’s the point of opening a new one!
At most, a holding subsidiary company will be established under the specifications of Purdue Pharmaceuticals...
…
Phew~
A heavy transport plane broke through the clouds and landed at Melbourne Airport.
Cheng Xue couldn't help but adjust the beret on her head as she watched the big-bellied transport plane land.
"You dare to sell anything, haha~"
For the safety of these machine tools, she will lead the team to escort each batch throughout the journey.
Precision machine tools need to be transported by air because they are relatively more stable. Problems may occur in the offshore environment if there are strong winds and waves, just like lithography machines also need to be transported by air.
However, some large and bulky machine tools can be shipped by sea.
This time, Umbrella purchased a lot of goods.
Umbrella has a strong ability to attract money, so it certainly won't hesitate to spend money.
Do it temporarily?
No, we want a finished product, and we will spend any money to make it for you.
Do you want a premium? If one times is not enough, try two times. If two times is not enough, try three times!
There will always be a time when you will let go!
Money has to be spent to be valuable!
This time, they even took advantage of the profits from "Ankangding" and the prospects for subsequent artificial organs, and used the purchasing qualifications gained through value exchange.
Of course, we have to seize the opportunity to make a big purchase in one go and empty out all the stock that can be emptied!
Neither the seller of the machine nor the parties involved in making the deal happen knew what kind of beast they were about to unleash...
