A doctor who travels through two eras
Chapter 320: Buying is worse than making is a mistake for the country
Seeing Lin Sanqi's clear yet stupid look, Dean Shen couldn't help it.
The old leader left him alone because there were some things he couldn't say himself and had to use Shen Guoming to say them.
"Xiao Qi, stop humming. You still don't understand what the leader means. Think about it, isn't our country really short of medical equipment? We can't provide all kinds of medical services, right?"
Lin Sanqi nodded: "Yes, it is difficult to diagnose without instruments. If the medical industry is to develop, medical instruments are indispensable."
"Okay, we lack medical equipment, so what should we do?"
"We should invest money to buy all kinds of advanced medical equipment."
"Okay, so we have the money ready to buy medical equipment, but we find out we can't buy it. What do we do?"
"Can't buy it? Then let's make it ourselves. We can even make an atomic bomb, so why can't we make some medical examination equipment?"
"Ok?"
Leader Jing and Dean Shen were both stunned. "We have built an atomic bomb?"
Leader Jing is a senior executive and knows about the top-secret projects in the northwest desert. His eyes narrowed in an instant.
Lin Sanqi really wanted to slap himself in the face. How could he accidentally let something slip again?
The atomic bomb is a secret among the core secrets of the country. If he dares to say that he knows that it is being researched in Lop Nur, believe it or not, his hands and feet will be tied up immediately and whipped with salt water whip: Tell me, where did you get the news? Will you tell me? If you don’t, I will beat you to death!!!
You have to act stupid quickly.
"Well, I've heard before that our atomic bomb was successfully developed in a place called Semeba... or Furosemide... or something in the northwest."
When Leader Jing heard this, he felt relieved and a smile appeared on his face again.
Dean Shen kicked Lin Sanqi on the butt:
"You are ignorant and unlearned. That's called Semipalatinsk, and this place is not our country, it belongs to the Soviet Union."
"Oh, the Russians' atomic bomb. Oh, I forgot about it. Why is it not ours..."
Dean Shen continued to deceive:
"Okay, since you said that if they don't sell it to us, we'll just make it ourselves. Now the problem is, we don't have the relevant technical reserves in our country, nor do we have the manufacturing process and materials for X-ray machines, let alone the core components. So what do you say we should do?"
"How to do?"
Lin Sanqi blinked his eyes and thought, if there is nothing I can sell it to you, so that I can make a little more money from the difference between the two eras. This is how I make a living.
"Leader Jing, Dean Shen, we don't have it in our country, so we can find a way to smuggle it from abroad. Can a living person be suffocated to death by urine?"
Dean Shen rolled his eyes and said, "You can smuggle one, two, ten or twenty units, but how can you smuggle thousands or tens of thousands of units?"
Lin Sanqi thought: Forget tens of thousands of units. As long as your client's funds are in place, it won't be a problem for me to get you millions of units.
But now that Dean Shen had said this, Lin Sanqi also knew what the higher authorities were planning.
It is no wonder that the most advanced X-ray machines can not only be used for medical examinations, but also have a very important function, which is quality inspection in industry.
For example, the welding quality such as surface cracks, incomplete penetration and weld leakage can be checked.
Another example is the inspection of the inner cavity of the worm gear pump, engine, etc. after operation to see if there are any residual chips, foreign objects or other excess impurities inside the machine.
In other words, the assembly quality is checked. After the assembly is completed or a certain process is completed, check whether the assembly positions of each component meet the requirements of the drawings or technical conditions, and whether there are any assembly defects.
X-ray machines can be used for industrial inspection, so they can be applied to military industry. The requirements for weapon manufacturing are higher, and X-ray machines can play a better role.
So instead of buying it, it’s better to make it yourself.
Lin Sanqi stroked his chin and thought that this was indeed a good idea.
Ordinary X-ray machines were already a common technology in 2013. Even some underground factories in Dongguan could manufacture them, so it was obviously not too difficult.
If he could get the X-ray machine technology and then transfer it to 1960, wouldn’t it be like the grain hybridization technology, and contribute to the country? (He didn’t know at this time that his hybridization technology had been shot down by his superiors)
"Leader Jing, Dean Shen, I understand what you mean. Do you want an X-ray machine production line? You also need a full set of drawings, including production processes and materials, etc. This matter... is difficult..."
Of course it's difficult. Theoretically, foreign countries have banned the export of machines to you, but you are asking for production lines and blueprints? Do you really think that Lin Sanqi is a god?
In fact, this request is a bit excessive.
You can't even afford eggs now, and yet you dare to think about other people's hens?
Dean Shen has signaled to Lin Sanqi with his eyes not to agree. This matter touches on the core interests of European and American countries. If Lin Sanqi dares to develop such sensitive technology, he will not know how he will die in the future.
Leader Jing certainly knows the difficulty of this task. Precisely because of the difficulty, they place more hope on Lin Sanqi. Since he and the organization behind him can get large-scale X-ray machines, perhaps they have the ability to get a complete set of X-ray machine production lines?
It's like hitting two shots regardless of whether there is a date or not.
"Comrade Lin Sanqi, it is precisely because of the difficulty that we have to solemnly ask you for help. We are currently stuck with too many technologies. The imperialists would like us to return to primitive society and not allow the Chinese to integrate into modern civilization. Do you think this can be agreed to?"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Sanqi thought of the siege and blockade of my country by the United States, Japan, and European countries in 2013, and he became angry for a while.
"Yes, we cannot agree to this. They say that everyone is equal, but their actions advocate white supremacy. I don't want to see such double-standard dogs. Screw them!"
Leader Jing also waved his fist:
"Yes, we must deal with them. Young people have ambitions. The country will eventually be handed over to you. You have to stand up. Only then will there be hope for our country."
Lin Sanqi made up his mind that even if he couldn't help with other things, he should be able to set up a medical equipment production line.
Of course, the premise of helping the country is that you have to make a lot of money yourself. National interests and personal interests are not in conflict.
“Leader Jing, I can think of a way to deal with the production line, but the subjects involved are quite complicated, and I don’t know if there is such scientific research capability in China.
Manufacturing an X-ray machine involves multiple disciplines, including medical imaging technology, electronic engineering, computer science, optoelectronics, mechanical engineering, etc.
If we don’t fully understand the core technology, even if we build the production line, we are still an “assembly factory” without any technology. But if we fully understand these technologies, can our country’s finances afford it?”
The investment in scientific research and technology is all made with money, and the investment is huge, but now scientific researchers can’t even get enough food to eat.
This is not like building a dam or constructing a railway where there is strength in numbers and results can be achieved by just working hard. Scientific and technological progress requires repeated experiments and repeated investment of money. We should be thankful if one or two out of dozens of projects succeed.
Without money, it's just empty words.
Leader Jing smoked silently, obviously worried about money, but finally made up his mind:
"Comrade Sanqi, what you are worried about is also the most difficult thing we are facing now. The country is short of money everywhere, but we have a principle that we cannot stop investing in science and technology because of lack of money.
Today we purchase some parts from abroad for assembly. Although we can also make X-ray machines, we still do not have the core technology. What if one day foreign countries stop selling them and don't even give you the opportunity to smuggle them? Then we will not make X-ray machines?
Comrade Sanqi, you can try to get the X-ray machine data from abroad, even if it's not a complete set of data, but some of it will be fine. Don't worry about the money, we will find a way to dig more jade and medicinal materials for you, and we guarantee that you won't suffer any loss."
When Lin Sanqi heard this, tears started streaming down her face.
This is the vision and long-term perspective of a leader. I really want to record Leader Jing’s words and then travel back to the 1980s and 1990s to let some foreign compradors listen to them. What does “it’s better to buy than to make” mean?
The person who originally made such remarks that brought disaster to the country and the people should be killed! Should be killed! Should be killed!!!
So Lin Sanqi patted his chest and made a guarantee:
"Okay, leader, just for what you said, I will do everything I can to get a full set of X-ray machine technology, but before that, we can make a little profit from the price difference to subsidize scientific research. This is the instruction from the leader."
Leader Jing became interested as soon as he heard it: "Tell me about it!"
"I think we can do this in three steps." Leader Jing and Dean Shen quickly moved over and sat down on the benches to listen to how Lin Sanqi, a southerner, made money:
"The first step is to buy 200 X-ray machines. I can ask foreign factories to customize these machines. As long as they are customized machines, we are the client and they have to manufacture them the way we ask them to.
Can we design a domestic trademark called "Beijing Brand"? Oh no, this trademark is too sensitive, Qidian.com won't even print these two words. Then let's create a domestic trademark called "Shanghai Brand", which has the characteristics of our country, right?
Then the word "Shanghai" was engraved everywhere inside the X-ray machine and on the nameplate. "
Leader Jing was a little uncertain and asked weakly, "Why do you want to get a trademark with the word Shanghai in it?"
"Leader, where are you from?"
"My hometown is Hong'an, Hubei."
Lin Sanqi clicked his tongue: "It shouldn't be like this. There's a nine-headed bird in the sky and a Hubei guy underground. Hubei guys should be good at doing business..."
"It's like this. We'll engrave the Shanghai brand on the machine. Once we get the machine, we can announce to the public that our country has mastered the 750 mAh X-ray machine, and it's the most advanced model in the world."
Dean Shen's eyes lit up: "Yes, that's great!"
Lin Sanqi continued to think of ways to make money:
"Don't worry, Boss. The factories I work with all have a strict spirit of contract and will never leak any information about customers. If we say that the products are made in China, no one will be able to find evidence.
Then we can sell the X-ray machines at the Canton Fair in China to foreigners. We can also take the initiative to participate in exhibitions abroad, such as the Budapest Industrial Fair, the Swedish Medical Equipment Conference, etc. Anyway, wherever there is an exhibition, we will go there to join in the fun. "
Southerners are willing to endure hardships when doing business, and the desire to go out and make money is engraved in their bones.
As long as they can make money, whether selling instant noodles in the tropical rainforest of South America, opening a supermarket in the African savannah, or selling anti-inflammatory drugs in the war-torn zone of Gaza, the more Southerners dare not go to a place, the more they think there is a business opportunity.
Leader Jing was delighted at first, then said with some concern:
"Well, if we sell them overseas and pretend they are our domestic models, I'm not afraid of that because I'm thick-skinned. But what about the quality? If the quality is poor, won't foreigners laugh at us? That would be a huge loss for our country."
Lin Sanqi patted his chest:
"Leader, there is a 750 mAh X-ray machine in front of you. I got 20 of them this time. Except for the three used by our hospital, the other 3 have been sold to major hospitals in China. I guess some of the quick ones have already used them.
You can collect customer after-sales information and ask these hospitals whether the X-ray machine I bought is easy to use, easy to operate, and clear. Let the people who have used it speak for themselves. They have the most say.
I am not bragging. The same 750 mAh model, but different manufacturers, will have very different quality. I am absolutely confident in my X-ray machine, and I can definitely beat foreign manufacturers. Even developed Western countries will come to purchase it.”
Dean Shen slammed the table excitedly: "Okay, this is a good idea!"
Although Leader Jing was also happy to hear this, leaders were always cautious:
"Okay, I'll send someone to follow up on the usage feedback of these 20 X-ray machines. If it's really as you said, then we'll follow your plan. By the way, what's your second step plan?"
Lin Sanqi thought, how could the advanced technology of 2013 be defeated by Tubalu of 1960?
"The second step is that after we make money, we will use a portion of the profit to purchase production lines and parts. We can assemble them ourselves, and even some simple parts can be made domestically.
In addition, while assembling and selling, you also need to master the core component technology. This process may take several years to accumulate. You can't be impatient, but you will definitely succeed.
Once all the components of the X-ray machine, including the core X-ray tube and detector, can be domestically produced, we will have mastered all the technologies, which can be used not only for civilian but also for military purposes.
If we upgrade these X-ray technologies, we can be ahead of all other countries in manufacturing CT machines and MRI machines. Then, in the field of imaging, our country can lead the world. This is the third step.”
Leader Jing and Dean Shen didn't understand what a CT machine or an MRI machine was, but they knew that the technology must be amazing and that it must have been developed abroad.
"Okay, this three-step plan is very good and feasible. So, Comrade Sanqi, please write a report on this three-step plan. In addition, please help me get the 200 X-ray machines that we promised. This is a top priority."
"Okay, keep it on me!"
It will be easy to operate once you have an idea. Southerners help you make money, and it is clear how much you make.
A week later, in the warehouse of Tianjin Port.
Lin Sanqi didn't even look at the half-warehouse of medicinal materials and went straight to the pile of stones.
When he saw the boxes of top-grade Hetian jade seeds, his eyes sparkled. In the end, he pinched his palms tightly, forcing himself to calm down and not reveal the truth.
Leader Jing also picked up a fist-sized piece of Hetian jade and said:
"These are all treasures. For these jade stones, we specially sent a division of troops and an engineering corps to search manually and dig with machines in the Yulong Kashi River in Hotan.
Comrade Sanqi, you don't know that the water in that river is all melted ice from the snowy mountains. It's very cold. Our soldiers were almost unconscious from the cold. We searched 24 hours a day and finally collected the amount you asked for."
In fact, these seeds were collected and piled there in the early years, in piles in the warehouse.
After 49 years, the rich people, the royal family and the connoisseurs were gone, so naturally no one was interested in this kind of stone anymore.
In the beginning, the local people in Hotan would occasionally pick up raw jade stones by the river and collect them, hoping to sell them in exchange for food one day.
But as time went by, no one bought these Hetian jades, and they became broken stones that no one cared about. It is estimated that many people use Hetian jade to build houses.
So when the superiors came with the task of requiring 5 tons of seed materials, the local people in Hotan sorted them and then sent them to Tianjin by a special plane.
But in order to win Lin Sanqi's sympathy, make him feel guilty, and let him understand how hard it is to get Hetian jade, Leader Jing made up a story about a garrison searching for jade in the icy river.
What does Lin Sanqi think?
What he was thinking was, damn, this top-grade seed material can actually be found just by searching in the river water. Isn't it like there is gold everywhere that can be picked up easily?
If the policy did not allow it, he would really like to spend money and food to hire tens of thousands of "honeydew melons" to help find seed materials in the Yulong Kashi River.
One gram of Hetian jade seed material costs ten thousand yuan, and a fist-sized piece of seed material is worth several million. Is there anything more profitable than this?
Hetian jade seed material was almost extinct in 2013. It could no longer be found by the river. One had to use an excavator to dig underground or go to the mountains to look for veins.
Even if there is seed material, large materials are already rare, and most of them are raw stones the size of radishes, which are also sky-high in price.
With such hype from capital, the prices of diamonds and jade can be hyped up to the sky. All we can say is "the stupid people with a lot of money come quickly".
But at the moment, Leader Jing had obviously miscalculated. As a time traveler, Lin Sanqi was not so easy to be fooled, even if he thought it would be easy to pick up the items by the river.
"Leader, it's not easy to be stationed in Hotan. It's not easy for a small person like me either. I'm really risking my life. If I, a person who is trying to undermine the country's patriotism, were caught by foreign secret services, I would have been beaten into a hornet's nest long ago."
Leader Jing agreed. Smuggling has always been a high-profit business, but it also involves high risks and is not easy.
“Okay, I’ve brought you these medicinal herbs and jade, and now I’m waiting for your 200 X-ray machines.
Oh, by the way, take this work permit. It is the work permit of the General Logistics Department. You are now a two-bar, two-star staff officer. This is a letter of introduction, proving that you are transporting supplies for the country.
I give you these certificates to prevent you from being accidentally injured by friendly forces. If you run into our navy at sea, it will be easy for them to blow you up without knowing who is the enemy or us. If you show them these certificates and letters of introduction, they will naturally let you go."
Lin Sanqi thought, it is indeed easier to get things done with the support of the country. Just like that, he was promoted to a higher level?
Unfortunately, these certificates are of no use to him. He is not really transporting the goods by sea. He has a golden finger.
After the handover was completed, Leader Jing led his men away. After dark, Lin Sanqi put all the medicinal materials and jade into the passage space and traveled back to 2013. (End of this chapter)
