Chapter 963 The Pediatrician Going to the Sea
After chatting with Liao Ting and deciding on the puncture plan, Yang Ping chatted with the director and doctor of the Department of Surgery of Huaqiao Building for a while. He didn't come here very often, and now Song Zimo is in charge of the consultations here. Today is just a drop-in.
Therefore, Yang Ping was considered a rare visitor. How could the director and doctors of the Department of Surgery let go of this precious opportunity to chat and force Yang Ping to stay in order to keep in touch with Yang Ping in the name of discussing cases.
After chatting with everyone for more than ten minutes and bidding farewell to the director and doctor of Overseas Chinese Building, Yang Ping left the office and took out his mobile phone. There were many unread WeChat messages, including Luo Jin’s WeChat message. This guy finally replied to the message. He probably figured out that he would like to Get the surgery.
When Yang Ping looked at WeChat, Luo Jin said that he had thought twice about it. If he could only live in a wheelchair after the operation, he would rather just wait, at least he can still play football now.
Luo Jin's WeChat reply contained a lot of text and was clearly organized. It was obvious that he had drafted it after careful consideration.
If you have surgery, you can survive, but you will always be in a wheelchair. If you don't have surgery, it will definitely be life-threatening. However, how long it will take for the problem to occur, ranging from a few months to a few years, depends on the speed of the disease.
Between life and football, Luo Jin actually chose football.
Yang Ping knew that he could not persuade him, but he still replied carefully: I hope to consider it again. The success rate of surgery is very high. Compared with life, postoperative complications are not worth mentioning. Being in a wheelchair is also a state of life.
But Luo Jin replied that this was his carefully considered choice and he would not regret it.
But from a medical point of view, it is indeed a pity. Life can be saved through surgery now, but after a while there will be no chance for surgery, and life is destined to be irreparable.
Among Yang Ping's friends, there are many inspirational people, but Luo Jin is the most inspirational. His life has been full of ups and downs, and every step he takes is so difficult.
Luo Jin suffered from nasopharyngeal cancer as a child and was later cured.
It was during the golden age of the advancement of football technology that he had a car accident that resulted in multiple fractures throughout his body. Fans once thought that he would leave the green field forever, but he stood up again, and through arduous rehabilitation training, he rushed back into the green field.
Later, his knee joint was severely damaged, and he was about to retire again, but Yang Ping helped him perform surgery to recover his function. He returned to the court again, and realized his dream, joining a European club, playing well, and becoming a first-line player. It was also hard and ups and downs.
A huge poster of Luo Jin still hangs in the Sanbo Sports Medicine Center. At that time, the Sports Medicine Center was established, and Luo Jin served as a free spokesperson to promote the Sports Medicine Center and establish its brand image. Today, Sports Medicine is among the top three in the country. , and Luo Jin once again faced a disaster in his life.
Without surgery, Luo Jin might not be able to escape this disaster, at least that's Yang Ping's current judgment.
Ivan sent a WeChat message from New Zealand saying that he wanted to come to China and hoped to use Professor He's digital human simulation surgery because the surgery on his Italian patient was too complicated. The allogeneic facial transplant donor came from a brain-dead patient, and Ivan had already obtained it. For this donor's facial data, he needs to simulate and reconstruct the donor's face, then reconstruct the surgical subject's face, and simulate and match the two faces, so that the neurovascular docking will be more precise and accurate.
Because the laboratory of Sanbo Hospital and Professor He's laboratory of Nandu Medical University are one of the iron triangle of Yang Ping's project, they often gather together to communicate. Professor He also learned some methods from Tang Shun and established a company that uses digital people to make money. mechanism.
For example, people like Ivan who need to use digital human technology to assist in surgery can pay a certain fee based on time and degree of use. This fee is generally relatively high, reaching millions of dollars, so that the digital human can obtain enough freedom. Raising funds can not only make money, but also test the deficiencies in the use of digital humans.
You must learn to make money, learn to pursue profits, and learn to express the value of technology. This is what Tang Shun told Professor He.
Professor He did a little calculation and found that if it is fully open, digital humans will be widely used and can earn a large amount of funds every year. These funds can not only be invested in scientific research, but also used to improve the treatment of researchers.
With digital humans as the foundation, Ruixing Medical's research and development of drugs and medical devices will speed up in the future. Therefore, breakthroughs in basic research will drive progress in many fields. This is the importance of basic research.
Basic research is like the foundation of a building. If the foundation is solid, the building has a lot of room for development and can be built to a higher height. However, if the foundation is weak, it will severely limit the design and construction of the building and must be controlled at a certain height. Within.
Yang Ping had just finished replying to these friends' WeChat messages when a cry came from behind him.
"Yang Ping! Yang Ping! Yang Ping!"
Yang Ping thought the voice sounded familiar, so he stopped and looked back.
The man wearing a VIP patient uniform was waving. When Yang Ping took a look, he saw a familiar face.
"I am Niu Zhixuan!"
Niu Zhixuan?
Yang Ping remembered that this was his colleague when he was working at the People's Hospital. He had lived in the same dormitory before and often played basketball together. They had a close friendship. At that time, this guy was working in the Department of Pediatrics at the Municipal People's Hospital, and later resigned and went to work.
"Why are you here?" Yang Ping was very curious. As a pediatrician, he probably doesn't have enough financial resources to live in a VIP ward like this. Could it be that he is another mistress whose father-in-law and mother-in-law are local landlords.
Niu Zhixuan said with a smile: "I developed acute pancreatitis from eating and drinking a few days ago. I came here for treatment. I heard that the medical technology here is excellent and the medical environment is good."
''Is everything okay now? "Yang Ping asked with concern, this is a good friend from the past.
''It's nothing serious. It's edema type. I've been treated conservatively for a few days. Now the doctor says you can drink white porridge. "Niu Zhixuan touched his belly.
Yang Ping said: "Would you like me to say hello to the director here and take care of you?"
Niu Zhixuan said happily: "That's the best. They discharged me and said that the ward is tight. Please say hello and let me stay a few more days. Lao Yang, you are really good. I heard that you are now a big professor and chief expert here. ? It’s been a while since I last saw you, and you’ve been promoted to professor. They said you have the qualifications to be evaluated as an academician. That’s awesome!” Niu Zhixuan looked envious.
"You're a pretty good guy, how can you make a fortune? Are you living in a VIP room if you have acute pancreatitis?" Yang Ping was a little curious. "How about we chat for a while?" Niu Zhixuan suggested.
Yang Ping immediately agreed, and the two came to a conference room in the VIP surgical department. The VIP conference room had a good environment and was very private, so the chat would not be disturbed.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Niu Zhixuan began to talk about how he went into business on his own after resigning from the hospital and started live broadcasting alone. After accumulating some capital, he opened his own company, mainly selling children's health products, such as smart medicine, Zenggaole, and Xueba. Milk powder, vision capsules, etc.
I have heard about this guy's situation before from Xiaowu. It is said that he sells goods through live broadcasts and now has a net worth of over 100 million. He has only been in business for a long time and his net worth has exceeded 100 million.
Yang Ping was not interested in how much money he made, but he was very interested in these strange products. Yang Ping asked: "What are your smart drugs and what are the mechanisms of these so-called high-tech products? Why are they not mentioned in the paper?" through relevant research results.”
Any high-tech product must be supported by a theoretical foundation. Yang Ping has read countless papers on these black technologies that Niu Zhixuan just mentioned, but he has never heard of them.
Niu Zhixuan was very frank: "We are all old colleagues and know everything about it. I have never been secretive about my business. This thing is to harvest the IQ tax. One is willing to pay and the other is willing to suffer. After all, there is market demand, and there are many things for this thing anyway." It is harmless to eat, it is just an ordinary nutritional product, and then it is packaged with a set of mysterious theories and promoted by overwhelming marketing to make a lot of money after selling it.”
"Is this okay?" Yang Ping was very surprised.
Niu Zhixuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled calmly: "What's wrong? Not everyone does this. Speaking of which, we are still a conscientious business. There are not many conscientious people like us nowadays. Although our products are useless, they are completely Harmless. In order to achieve this goal, we have established a professional scientific research team, whose members are all doctoral researchers. The main task is to make our products harmless to the human body. Can you tell me how other companies are so careful? , we have a height-increasing product whose main ingredient is actually starch, but our starch raw materials are different. We strictly select the best quality suppliers, and we have our own testing agency to ensure that the raw materials are harmless and pollution-free. You say we are still careful? Don’t worry? We sell at such a high price, so we have to do something practical to feel at ease.”
''But this is a fake after all? "Yang Ping asked.
Niu Zhixuan laughed: "How can this thing be real or fake? There is no real thing in the first place, so how can it be divided into real and fake? If you believe it, it is real, if you don't believe it, it is fake. There is no placebo in medicine. Our products are quite Although it does not play a substantial role as a placebo, it does so by establishing false confidence and hope, relieving customers' anxiety, and acting as a placebo. Not to mention, we strictly follow statistical principles to conduct large-sample studies. Statistics show that the happiness index of children and parents who have used our products is significantly higher than that of those who have not used our products, and the anxiety index is significantly lower than that of the control group. If you think about it, the same child with a short stature thinks that he can grow up to 1.9 meters, being short is only temporary. The other person thinks that he will only be this tall in the future. Who will be happy?”
Boss Niu has one theory after another. In this way, Boss Niu is still a conscientious boss.
That seemed to be the case. After Yang Ping thought about it carefully, his theory seemed to make sense logically.
"You have a very broad path. How many employees do you have now?"
"Not many. There are more than 200 people covered by social security. We have our own factories and warehouses, and a large main R&D team. 40% of employees have a doctorate or above, and 60% have a master's degree or a bachelor's degree."
"The R&D team is so huge?"
"Yes, the market competition is fierce. We must give full play to our own advantages and cannot compete with others on price. We must create new theories, develop new products, and introduce new products. For example, we recently launched a health product that can block scoliosis. The response has been very good, and now the demand exceeds supply. One course of treatment costs more than 30,000 yuan, and several courses of treatment only cost about 100,000 yuan. It is cheaper than surgery.”
Holy shit, my research is currently on minimally invasive surgery, and you've already gone ahead to control scoliosis with just medication.
"This is your medicine?" Yang Ping was very confused.
"I don't tell lies in front of experts. This product is useless. You know scoliosis. Once discovered, some of the subsequent developments may be serious and some may be mild. The theoretical basis of our product is a probability The principle is that we only give food to those who have just developed the disease. Those children who will naturally develop mild disease in the future will naturally feel that it is our health care products that are attributable to our health care products. As for those children who later develop severe disease, they should undergo surgery. Even if you have surgery, there will always be things that don't work well, right?" Niu Zhixuan said proudly, he was very honest and did not lie at all.
"What other products do you have?"
"We currently plan to extend our product line forward to the fetal period, such as the red and blue milk powder that is about to be launched."
''What is red and blue milk powder? ”
"Oh, there are two types of milk powder, one in a blue package and one in a pink package. Let me tell you, those who take the blue package of milk powder before preparing for pregnancy can give birth to a son, and those who take the pink package of milk powder can give birth to a daughter."
"You are too much, pregnant women."
"It's just ordinary milk powder, don't worry, and the quality is definitely better than the ordinary milk powder on the market. We put a lot of thought into the quality of the product. The cost of raw materials is very high. The milk powder is all imported from New Zealand and packaged and sold in China. It will never be We have a conscience when adding random things. In order to be absolutely safe and avoid unnecessary disputes, milk powder is not for women, but for men. I will send you a few cans to try. Don’t worry, the quality is definitely better than ordinary milk powder. You Think about it, how much does a can of ordinary milk powder cost? We have to sell this can for thousands or tens of thousands. Huge profits are huge profits, but our costs are also high. The products are really conscientious and have been strictly controlled by our own testing team. Now I The whole family eats it themselves." Niu Zhixuan looked confident.
"Our products can withstand any inspection, and any unit can come for inspection at any time." Niu Zhixuan patted his chest.
"We also have Xueba Gold Milk Powder, which costs more than RMB 6,000 per can. The factory is located abroad, and the brand is also applied for abroad. Anyway, I set up the factory abroad and the products are exported to China."
"Anyone buys it?"
"The supply exceeds demand at the market. Now the production capacity of foreign factories cannot keep up, and the milk source cannot keep up. We don't want to pass off inferior products, so we have not expanded production capacity.
Yang Ping's eyes widened. As a top boss in the medical industry, being taught a solid lesson by this old friend today was an eye-opener.
"I'm still busy. Let's get together when we have time in the future. I'll treat you to dinner." Yang Ping stood up to leave.
"Sometime, I'll treat you and Xiao Wu to dinner! With your current status and status, how can I invite you to treat me?" Niu Zhixuan said politely.
When Yang Ping left, he did not forget to say hello to the director of the Department of Surgery, allowing his old friend to stay in hospital as long as he wanted, and moving the ward to a south-facing suite.
