Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 554 You are going to turn the world upside down!
Of course Li Yan saw the drastic change in Huang Guohui's expression.

With his current abilities, it is impossible for him not to realize the impact of this matter.

Naturally, it is impossible not to know what Huang Guohui was thinking and why his expression changed drastically.

Huang Guohui was still struggling with how to express himself, but when he saw Li Yan's calm expression, he understood:
"You understand, Li Yan."

"uh-huh."

This made Huang Guohui at a loss as to how to start.

He finally sat down on the sofa, frowned, and subconsciously took out a cigarette.

"Uncle Hui, this is a non-smoking area."

"..." Huang Guohui put away his cigarette, "Li Yan, do you understand the impact of doing this?"

"We will make cancer less scary and make it possible for ordinary people to easily solve cancer problems."

"Simple?"

"Didn't I tell you to go into the homes of ordinary people?" Li Yan said.

Huang Guohui narrowed his eyes, "Tell me the truth, what price are you going to set?"

"Then tell me the truth. If I were to benefit the people, where would you stand?"

What made Huang Guohui very uncomfortable was that Li Yan was very calm when she said these words.

There were no mood swings and no doubts.

This made Huang Guohui very uncomfortable.

He was used to taking the initiative in conversations. Although he knew it would be difficult to do so when facing Li Yan, there had never been a time when he needed to take the initiative, and he even had to deliberately give it up.

Because he thinks he has to coax Li Yan, the two sides are in the honeymoon period of cooperation. The more powerful Li Yan is, the more surprises he will get in his political achievements.

This genius continues to bring exaggerated positive benefits to Huang Guohui, and there is no reason to suppress him, to confront him, or to maintain his position.

But today was different. For the first time, Huang Guohui felt that Li Yan seemed to be standing against him.

The pressure is so fucking great.

It’s really best to be friends with people of this level.

Li Yan didn't show any emotion, which meant that everything was still under his control; there was no trace of doubt on his face, which meant that Li Yan knew exactly what he wanted to say about Huang Guohui's concerns.

"This is not a question of which side you stand on, Li Yan. You still have to look at the problem from multiple perspectives and stand at a high enough level..."

"I know, we need to stand high." Li Yan said.

This tone... Huang Guohui thought to himself that something was wrong.

"So for the sake of the people, I will reduce the cost of broad-spectrum cancer treatment to the limit." Li Yan even walked to the coffee machine to make coffee.

"The limit? How can you reach the limit? Are you going to send this device directly to the hospital?"

"That's okay."

Huang Guohui felt like he had something stuck in his throat.

"Cancer patients are divided into different levels." Li Yan concentrated on making coffee. "As long as it's not a difficult cancer and it's not in the advanced stage, you don't even need observation equipment, and the dosage doesn't need to be much. Just buy some special medicine and take it home to nourish your body. Take it for ten days or half a month, and it will be enough."

"The cost is not low, what kind of nano-drug platform is that..."

"This thing has a high R&D cost. If we really come up with a production chain, we can lower the cost of anything. If I don't expect to make a lot of money from this, I can lower the cost even more."

Huang Guohui couldn't stand it any longer. "Li Yan, if you keep lowering the price, it will have a major impact on the entire medical system!"

"If you want to say it's a blow, go ahead, Uncle Hui." Li Yan said, "I haven't even told you that my stuff can be used to make a very low-cost preventive drug, which can really eliminate cancer. It's not far away."

"How low? Any specific number?"

"A pill costs dozens of dollars." Li Yan said.

Dozens... dozens? !

"To treat a cancer patient who has not yet reached the advanced stage and has not metastasized throughout the body, the cost of this treatment is probably only a few thousand yuan, not counting the tumor removal surgery. If external magnetic field guidance is required, it will cost a few thousand yuan more. Prevention is even cheaper. If there are some problems in the physical examination, it will cost a few hundred yuan a year. After three years, the risk of cancer will be completely eliminated."

Huang Guohui was sweating profusely after hearing these words.

It's January, damn! It's freezing cold!

I was whining when I was talking outside just now!

"How much does it cost for Hou Xiaofeng's treatment?"

The question is very straightforward.

"Are you referring to this time specifically?" Li Yan said with a smile, "That's a sky-high price, and it will take a lifetime to pay it back. I will count all the R&D costs and the equipment for this treatment as a one-time expense, maybe two or three hundred million."

So cruel...

"Two or three hundred million? Are you kidding?" Huang Guohui was misled.

"No." Li Yan shrugged. "This is the first case. You'll see in a month. Hou Xiaofeng will probably be able to lead a normal life. In another half a year, he'll be able to eat and drink well. I've given him a life extension of at least ten years for a man who was about to die. What's two or three hundred million to him?"

"What if it's not a special feature this time?"

"Does that mean the treatment plan is fully mature, and the equipment has been optimized through assembly line intelligent manufacturing for late-stage treatment?"

"That's what it means."

"No more than 100,000."

This figure is obviously much lower than Huang Guohui's estimate.

"No more than 100,000... No more than 100,000, can it save a patient with terminal cancer?"

"Strictly speaking, it's to save a patient who has been dragged to the late stage by the king of cancer and whose body is already riddled with holes. At most, it will cost one hundred thousand."

"..."

"Isn't this a good thing?" Li Yan smiled, "The disease that has destroyed so many families will soon become less scary."

Huang Guohui seemed to want to say something several times but hesitated, so Li Yan also kept silent and waited for him to express his opinion.

The awkward silence lasted for half a minute. Secretary Huang sighed and finally spoke:

"I must tell you very seriously, Li Yan, that you must seriously consider the impact of your actions on the medical system."

"Positive or negative?" "Look at it dialectically."

Obviously, there are some things Huang Guohui himself cannot say.

"Uncle Hui, think about it, tens of thousands of dollars for a life, there is no better deal than this, right?"

These words almost shut Huang Guohui up.

Of course it is cost-effective, of course it is a good thing. How can it not be a good thing to benefit the people?
From this point of view alone, Li Yan is unrivaled in his correctness.

"I just hope that you can also see some of the negative effects." Huang Guohui said, as if he had made up his mind, and stood up directly, "Li Yan, I want to communicate with you frankly, so don't be too correct, otherwise I will naturally have no position to tell you my true thoughts."

"Uncle Hui, don't be too 'correct'." Li Yan drank the coffee slowly, which seemed to be a little hot. "You obviously want to tell me about the negative impact. Why do you have to talk about dialectics?"

"Okay, I was wrong. I'm telling you clearly, Li Yan, that excessively lowering the cost of cancer treatment will greatly affect the revenue of the medical system. Our current diagnosis and treatment base does not rely on broad-spectrum cancer therapies, but on countless large and small hospitals."

Li Yan just looked at him quietly.

Huang Guohui's eyes were firm. "I know you may interpret my words as being very inhumane. But I must also tell you that social governance does not start from the micro level. It does not care about one or two people, but all people and groups. We are much better than those abroad. The medical system is officially backed. But if the medicine you use to cure a disease is cheaper than getting a checkup in a hospital, it will easily lead to the problem of 'hospitals have been collecting dirty money'. By then, the public will lose confidence in the medical system, which is a very scary thing!"

"What's so scary about it?"

Huang Guohui never expected Li Yan to ask this, and his tone became anxious, "You can't not know! Li Yan, why are you asking even though you already know the answer?! Your medicine only treats cancer, and cancer patients can indeed be saved. I can't tell you that the hospital will collapse if it loses the revenue from cancer patients, but... what about other diseases? What you developed is not a panacea!"

Li Yan still looked at him quietly.

Huang Guohui suddenly remembered the original name of Li Yan’s project - universal miracle drug.

"No way..."

"It's just what you think." Li Yan said, "Broad-spectrum cancer eradication therapy is only a phased victory of the universal special medicine project. After confirming the clinical effect and collecting enough data, we will conquer other diseases except for a few rare diseases, and finally develop a universal special medicine for the human system itself. It should not be an unattainable project."

“…I believe you can do it.”

"Of course. The next step for universal special medicines is preventive medicines that directly act on the body's recovery and immune mechanisms. A normal person can take one pill every few months or a year. Not only will they be immune to all poisons, but they will also be immune to minor illnesses."

"You..." Huang Guohui adjusted his breathing, "Don't tell me, you are going to give a cheap price for these medicines?"

"Of course, it has to be affordable for everyone. Otherwise, how can we improve the immunity level of the Chinese people?"

"Improve overall..." Huang Guohui turned around several times, "You are still telling me the right things, Li Yan, you still want to force me to stand on the opposite side..."

"Who forced you to do that?"

Huang Guohui never expected that Li Yan would give him a cold look before he even exploded.

I have been with Li Yan for such a long time, but I have never seen him with such a gloomy face, nor have I heard him speak in such a cold, gloomy and even a little fierce tone.

Huang Guohui, who holds a high position, has not been treated like this for a long time. He is about to make a further step forward and is now at the peak of his career. Even his leaders speak to him politely. He suddenly became furious.

"You, you're forcing me to contradict you by saying this?"

"You wanted to be the opposite from the beginning, and now you're blaming me?" Li Yan snorted. "What do you mean I'm saying the right things, Secretary Huang? I'm telling you the truth. I have the ability to make Chinese people have better health and cheaper and more effective medical care, so I naturally have such ambitions. I'm aware of all the impacts you mentioned. Hospitals will indeed suffer as a result and may be forced to adjust their prices. I may subvert this industry in an extremely drastic way, which is indeed a blow to a large number of grassroots medical workers."

Huang Guohui's expression eased a little, "It's OK as long as you know..."

"but."

Huang Guohui's face froze.

"Throughout history, almost all advances in the times have led to the collapse of industries that lag behind the times. This is the pain of transformation. Haven't similar things happened often? The wave of layoffs is nothing new. Today, I am leading the medical industry to take a step forward. Why do I still have to consider this?"

Huang Guohui was stunned, his mouth open but unable to speak.

"Secretary Huang, I will reply with what you said to me. Social governance does not start from the micro level. It does not care about one or two people, but all people and groups. Besides, I will not destroy the medical industry because of this. They can transform and do research. My medicine cannot replace surgery. Some minor illnesses do not need to take special medicines... There are many directions for medical workers to transform. Compared with the universal special medicine that benefits all mankind, this impact is not worth mentioning at all!"

"You, Li Yan, you think too simply!"

"What? You want to talk to me about benefits? Secretary Huang, please do the math yourself. How many jobs have I created here? We even opened a university major for assembly line intelligent manufacturing. You want to argue with me about the benefits of the entire medical system, then how do you calculate what I have created?"

"I'm not here to settle accounts with you! Li Yan, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?!"

"Oh." Li Yan put down the coffee cup and stood in the backlight, so her expression could hardly be seen. "Or is it that the value I create is one thing, and the value I take from others is another thing?"

Huang Guohui did not answer.

"If I make my own cake, it's fine. But if I touch someone else's cake, there will be a problem." Li Yan smiled, "And whoever's cake is touched will be the one who is anxious."

"You are going to turn the world upside down!"

Huang Guohui slammed the table.

He regretted it after the photoshoot and kept stroking his hair.

"In this office," Li Yan raised his hand, "I am the only one who has the right to slam the table."

Huang Guohui watched his hand falling quickly, and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat, but no loud noise was heard. He only saw Li Yan's hand stopped, and it seemed that it was almost touching the table.

"But there's no need, Uncle Hui. There are some things that cannot be done together if we have different ideas."

"The leaders take this matter very seriously. I still suggest you think it over carefully. Even if you really want to sell it at a bargain price, there are ways to prevent you from selling it. Don't make it to this point, Li Yan. I'm really doing this for your own good."

Li Yan didn't reply directly, but started typing on the computer, asking Wei Yunzhi what she was going to eat for dinner.

Huang Guohui was silent for a long time, then he said in a more relaxed tone, "Li Yan, the driverless driving system of Future City is fully online, right? The senior leader said before that when you complete the world's first fully driverless driving area, he will come to investigate in person."

Li Yan shrugged and said indifferently, "Welcome."

"But if you still insist on the route of selling cheap special medicines, this research plan may be ruined."

"Then soak it, it's easier to digest."

Huang Guohui was so anxious that he scratched his head, "Li Yan, do you know what I mean?"

"If you think I know, you don't need to ask. If you think I don't know, you can just say it."

"I'm telling you the consequences of your willful behavior!" Huang Guohui was so anxious that his expression twisted. "Now the official support and protection you are given are almost at the highest level. We have always had a tacit understanding that we can discuss everything! We consider you, and you have to consider us too!"

"Uncle Hui, I understand all these things and I am very grateful." Li Yan said, "But I can also judge what needs to be considered."

"Young man, if you get stubborn, even ten cows can't stop you!" Huang Guohui angrily shook his sleeves, "Forget it, if you really want to do this, I will report the truth. If there are any bad signals from above, don't blame me."

"No wonder." Li Yan responded lightly.

"Are you so confident, Li Yan?"

"Do you need me more, or do I need you more?" Li Yan smiled, "Let's wait and see."
