Chapter 1549 Lin Rui's Mind Goes Blank
Upon hearing this, Lu Feng exhaled a smoke ring, which was immediately dispersed by the sea breeze.
He turned his head to look at his long-time partner, a smile playing on his lips.
"What's there to be afraid of? With Huayu involved, this technology won't go astray."
"My initial intention in getting into medicine was never to replace anything, but to make up for something."
"Isn't this what those who have lost their sight, those who have never seen this world since birth, have been waiting for?"
Gao Xiaofeng took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and nodded.
"You're right. I misunderstood something."
Lu Feng stubbed out the cigarette with his bare hands and clenched it in his palm.
"In that case, let's get started on the pre-launch preparations. I want you to make sure the entire planet knows about artificial eyeballs as quickly as possible."
Upon hearing this, the dazed look on Gao Xiaofeng's face gradually faded, replaced by the competence and confidence of someone in charge of Huayu Group.
"Don't worry about that."
He straightened his back slightly.
Having gone through the experiences with nerve repair drugs, cancer-fighting drugs, and artificial hearts, he is now extremely proficient in these procedures.
Lu Feng nodded in satisfaction.
He always trusted Gao Xiaofeng completely. Gao Xiaofeng's greatest strength was that no matter how shocking the situation was, once he got into work mode, he could immediately transform all his emotions into execution.
Just then, a face suddenly flashed through Lu Feng's mind.
She was a girl whose eyes crinkled when she smiled. But those eyes had never truly seen the world.
Lin Rui.
That lovely blind girl.
The two met through their connection as artists under the Chenxi Entertainment label.
At that time, he made a promise to the girl, saying that he would definitely help her regain her sight.
Now, the opportunity is right in front of you!
Lu Feng was silent for a few seconds, then spoke:
"As usual, the first surgery will be broadcast live."
Gao Xiaofeng nodded. This had become the standard procedure for Huayu Medical to release new products: open, transparent, and allowing the world to witness the miracle.
"As for the patient..."
Lu Feng's gaze swept across the azure sea, reaching towards the distant horizon.
"I already have a suitable candidate on my side."
Gao Xiaofeng didn't ask any more questions, he just nodded.
He knew that Lu Feng always had his own considerations when doing things, and that his choices had never disappointed him.
“Okay, then I’ll prepare in that direction. The live streaming team, medical team, and security plan will all be prepared to the highest standards.”
Lu Feng hummed in response and said nothing more.
The sea breeze continued to blow, and seagulls skimmed across the water in the distance, emitting clear cries.
Gao Xiaofeng stood there and glanced back at the direction of the research institute.
The towering building gleamed in the sunlight, like a beacon leading to the future.
He suddenly felt a sense of anticipation.
I wonder what kind of reaction those who have never seen the light will have when they suddenly see the world as it truly is.
.........
Gao Xiaofeng acted swiftly, spreading the news about artificial eyeballs on a large scale in less than a day.
Of course, this also requires the cooperation of major internet companies.
Thanks to its chairman's connections with Alibaba and Tengfei, Chinese character ByteDance has deep collaborations with these companies and even owns shares in them.
With just one phone call, these companies will cooperate to distribute information about artificial eyes on their own online software.
The companies mentioned above cover the entire Chinese internet. It's no exaggeration to say that if you use a computer or a smartphone, you'll definitely need their software.
News about artificial eyeballs is flying around, naturally attracting the attention of the Chinese people.
When the entire nation learned that Huayu Group had actually developed an artificial eyeball, the whole country was shocked.
Especially the blind, they dream of having sight and wanting to see the flowers and plants with their own eyes.
But restoring sight is easier said than done. Even if they longed to see, they could only keep that hope hidden in their hearts.
After all, in the past, not only China, but even countries known for their advanced medical care could not restore sight to all patients.
At most, the damaged retina will need to be replaced.
But that's far from enough. You have to know that there are all sorts of reasons why many blind people can't see, and it's not just because of their retina.
Originally, they thought they would never regain their sight in this lifetime, but Huayu gave them hope.
The advent of artificial eyeballs allowed them to see a ray of light descending from the sky.
The old city of Shanghai.
Once the most prosperous place in Shanghai, it has gradually been labeled as backward as the city continues to expand and times change.
Most of the capable locals in Shanghai have already left; the majority of those remaining are either Shanghai locals who can't afford new homes or migrant workers.
Lin Rui's family lives here.
A family of four lives in a small 70-square-meter house.
Although the house is old, it becomes very cozy because of the presence of home.
That day, as usual, Lin Rui tidied up her room briefly and then sat down in front of her computer to prepare for dubbing.
Because she is blind, she cannot go out to work. Fortunately, God closed one door for her, but opened another window.
Although she is blind, she has a beautiful voice. With her natural voice, she found a job dubbing for the most popular novel by Tomato.
I can earn five or six thousand yuan a month to supplement my family's income.
"Cough cough!"
Lin Rui cleared her throat, moved her face closer to the microphone, and prepared to begin dubbing the novel.
Because everyone else in her family goes out to work, she doesn't have to worry about being disturbed.
However, before she could even turn on the microphone, a piercing ringtone sounded.
Someone called him.
"Who picks this time? I just sat down!"
The little girl muttered something in annoyance, but still picked up the phone and pressed the answer button.
"Hello, who are you?"
She asked softly.
"Are you Miss Lin?"
A magnetic voice came through the phone.
..........
The phone call didn't last long, only a few minutes.
But for Lin Rui, every second of those few minutes felt like it was stretched out infinitely.
The call was from Mr. Lu, the man who had once helped and protected her.
His purpose was simple: he said that his Huayu Group had broken through the technological barriers and achieved artificial eyeballs, and he wanted to invite her to become the first owner of an artificial eyeball.
I hope she will do me the honor.
Such a simple sentence left her mind blank.
The words "artificial eyeball" struck her deeply, leaving her unable to calm down for a long time.
