Returned Chinese Academician Cheng Jing: The Legend of Chinese Heart in Biochip

"When I was young, I always said that 'save a life and win a seven-level float.' But at that time, it was a monk chanting, and there was no heart." Now I can use biotechnology to save lives, and my heart is very different." In an interview with reporters in Beijing, Beijing said that he found his own life value in the biotechnology industry.

Professors in the "Ivory Tower", academicians of the Academy of Engineering, presidents in the shopping malls, winners of the first Overseas Chinese and Chinese Jinghua Awards, etc. His role is indeed a lot, but the subject matter is related to biochips. He is the leader of China's biochips, using his professional skills to open up new areas of biotechnology, and lead companies to the world with high-tech products and services.

"Qian Xuesen" in the biotechnology industry

Cheng Jing and Qian Xuesen have many similarities: they are also academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, who are leading figures in their respective fields of study. They are also representatives of the National People's Congress who have made suggestions for national development. They are also scientists who have achieved success in the United States and have returned to China. However, Cheng Jing did not dare to say this analogy: "I have always admired Qian Xuesen, and I have a lot of resonance with his experience. I hope that I can use my own knowledge to serve the motherland like Qian Xuesen."

Cheng Jing’s experience is legendary. He is an engineer who broke into the field of biochips and created a new era of biochips in China. He is a researcher who broke into the sea of ​​business and led his team to break through. He was called "the first Chinese to enter the world level" by Fortune magazine. "Biotechnology company"; he is a university professor who runs in politics, and promotes the improvement of relevant policies with an entrepreneurial experience of "old returnees".

In March 1999, Cheng Jing returned to the motherland as the first “100 Talents Introduction Program” of Tsinghua University. In September 2000, Boao Biotechnology Co., Ltd. was formally established, and the Biochip Beijing National Engineering Research Center also came into being based on Boao. In a few years, Cheng Jing led the team to obtain the first national medical device certificate, the first biochip foreign patent authorization, and launched the world's first transcription factor activity spectrum chip, cell viability electric rotation detection chip, hereditary deafness detection Gene chip, the first tuberculosis drug resistance test chip... Behind the remarkable achievements is the history of hard work that is not known by Cheng Jing.

Cheng Jing is also a full-time professor at Tsinghua University. He is responsible for the teaching and research tasks of the Department of Biomedical Engineering and the Center for Medical Systems Biology. He is also the full-time president of Boao, and is responsible for leading the company in the market and developing globally. Task. At the age of 51, he works at least 16 hours a day. After a hard time, he studies hard and people look forward to it. Cheng Jing enjoys this busy and fulfilling life. He said: "Our generation can be said to be a 'filling generation'. On the one hand, China and the West have large gaps in technology, and they need a generation to use intelligence and energy to bridge the gap in technology. On the other hand, we pass ourselves. Entrepreneurial practice to promote the improvement of relevant policies, laws and regulations, and strive to provide a better entrepreneurial environment for later people."

Scientist in the mall

“Made in China was once synonymous with inferior quality. Now, our technology and products have rewritten the understanding of Westerners in Chinese. Boao Biotech’s products have won the respect of the Western world. This is the most fulfilling thing. Speaking of entrepreneurship, Cheng Jing’s excitement is beyond words.

Since the founding of Boao Bio in 2000, Cheng Jing has won more than 10 national awards. Now he has developed hundreds of series of independent intellectual property rights in four series of biochips and related instruments and equipment, reagent consumables and software databases. The product and commercial conversion implementation rate is nearly 60%. Its products and services are exported to more than 20 countries and regions such as North America, Europe and the Middle East. Its diagnostic biochip products have entered hundreds of countries in the UK, Germany, Sweden, Japan and other countries. Home hospital for disease diagnosis.

“Some foreign companies in the same industry have learned that our products are large in scale and wide in population, and they are very unbelievable. But we can’t be addicted to achievements, and we can’t research for scientific research, innovation for innovation, and invest a lot of money. The ultimate goal of doing research is to turn it into a product of value and benefit more people."

Cheng Jing, who is involved in the shopping mall, has a strong literati temperament. Serving people's livelihood, reducing approval and setting standards have become his theme in the mall. As the representative of the 12th National People's Congress, Cheng Jing proposed to formulate an “export” policy for national innovation and entrepreneurship to increase the speed at which innovative products enter the market, and called on the government to simplify the approval process for innovative products in the medical field and accelerate the clinical transformation process of advanced scientific and technological achievements. Benefit more patients. "This is a matter of people's livelihood."

Cheng Jing is not limited to this, and there is also a major event in the development of industrial standards. "In the biological, pharmaceutical and other industries, most of the industry standards are formulated by European and American countries. This not only makes China lack the right to speak in the industry, but more importantly, it often puts us in a passive state of being controlled by people. We cannot easily compromise and lower standards. We must occupy a new commanding height ourselves - set standards so that we can truly connect with the world."

"This is our pursuit"

Cheng Jing was the chief scientist of the American Nano Gene Company. In 1998, 35-year-old Cheng Jing and his team created the world's first "1 square centimeter ultra-micro laboratory", which was cited by the "World's Top Ten Technology Breakthroughs" selected by the US Science magazine. The development space and comfortable life abroad have not tied the way for Cheng Jing to return to China. In 1999, as the first “100-person talent introduction plan” of Tsinghua University, Cheng Jing, who has been away from China for more than 10 years, returned to Beijing with the Chinese heart in the biochip. Since then, China's biochip field has also been marked with the symbol of Cheng Jing.

The biochip seems to be tiny, but it is rich in sophisticated technology. It combines semiconductor materials, manufacturing processes, surface chemical processing technology with clinical testing and molecular biology to achieve early prevention and personalized detection of major diseases. In addition, it has been widely used in many fields such as food safety, environmental testing and national security, and has truly changed its life with technology. China's biochip development officially started due to Cheng Jing's return to China.

“I just came back 900 yuan a month, and my colleagues worked in the copying room vacated by Tsinghua Biology. The tables and chairs in the studio were also coming from the school corridor.” Cheng Jing now smiles and talks about the hardships of the start-up phase. "One heart is buried in scientific research, and I don't feel sad." Cheng Jing, who was indulging in biochip research, has achieved a lot of results. The electromagnetic biochips that were independently developed in 2000 when they started, won the "Top Ten Scientific and Technological Progress in China". prize. However, Cheng Jing did not get lost in the awards, but discovered the economic problems of technology.

Although the technology is very advanced, the high cost has made many hospitals discouraged. Therefore, since 2003, Cheng Jing has begun to change the development ideas, from the development of low-end products to the development of high-end products, so that more new technologies will benefit the people. . This idea has also been dubbed by him as “standing the sky”: first meet the needs of ordinary people, solve practical problems, and then develop difficult and more advanced products after standing firm.

"Let the people use technology products, this is our pursuit." When talking about the achievements made today, he smiled and said: "I don't have a big sense of accomplishment when I see the chips and instruments I have made, but it is unintentional. It feels very different when it comes to patients, people with disabilities and their family members.
