A doctor who travels through two eras

Next to Mrs. Nanxiang's ward.

Dr. Xiao Nan is reporting the content of his conversation with Lin Sanqi to the biggest boss, Nan Xiang Saburo.

Nango Saburo was a little surprised:

"You mean, the surgery that Dr. Lin performed on my wife was not fake, and it really used a new technology?"

How could this old Japanese man, as the head of a chaebol, trust others so easily? When he saw the small cut on his wife, he was actually full of doubts.

But he didn't express his doubts out loud.

Firstly, he is not a medical professional and does not understand professional terms. Secondly, he is the president of the China-Japan Friendship Association and cannot say anything that is detrimental to unity.

So Nango Saburo wanted Dr. Xiaonan to give it a try.

"Yes, President, he admitted it himself. He used a thoracoscopic technique, which only requires a small incision, and then a special tool is used to dig a hole inside like a tunnel, and then the diseased lung lobe is removed through this channel.

In the words of Dr. Lin, this type of incision has less trauma, quicker recovery, and shorter operation time. While ensuring that my wife can withstand the risks of the operation, the diseased part can also be removed as quickly as possible. "

Nango Saburo asked anxiously:

"So, the very smelly lung that Dr. Lin showed just now is indeed my wife's? Do you think it is lung cancer or tuberculosis?"

After all, Dr. Xiaonan is the best pulmonologist and professor in Japan. He can tell the diagnosis almost accurately with just one look.

"President, I have just observed it carefully. As expected, it is indeed not lung cancer. Whether it is tuberculosis or not still needs a pathological section, but it is certain that there is an abscess and obstruction in the lungs. If the diseased lung lobe is not removed in time, the prognosis of the lady is not optimistic."

Nango Saburo was relieved when he heard this:
"That's good, that's good. This doctor Hua Guolin is simply amazing. I want to thank him. By the way, can we in Japan produce the thoracoscopic surgery you just mentioned?"

Saburo Nango is a chaebol and the boss of a group company. He actually has no idea what the pharmaceutical companies and hospitals under him are developing.

"President, it is like this. Currently, major pharmaceutical companies in the world are indeed conducting research on endoscopic and laparoscopic surgeries, and various countries are also working hard to develop them. Our research and development in Japan is still in the laboratory stage. It will take many years of experiments to transform an idea into a real machine.

However, there is a good opportunity right in front of us. Apparently, China is at the forefront of the world in laparoscopic surgery, but they probably have not yet completely mastered this technology, so they have not yet released it.

So my idea is that we can steal the laparoscope technology quietly before China makes it public. Even if we can't steal it, we can see the finished product of the machine, which will give us some ideas for our research and development."

Decades later, China is known as the world's factory, and also has a nickname called "the country of copycats."

What this means is that any new invention in the world, including advanced precision instruments and weapons, can be copied immediately by the Chinese as long as they have been seen by them or know some of the technical details.

In fact, Japan was also at this stage in the 60s.

After all, after their defeat in 1945, their country had become a ruin, and by the time they held the first Olympic Games in 1964, they had become a developed country.

This was a short period of less than 20 years.

There are many reasons for this, one of which may be related to the fact that the bombing of Japan was not thorough enough, allowing them to secretly retain a large number of skilled workers and equipment, allowing them to quickly resume production after the war.

But it also has a lot to do with the fact that the Japanese have copied a large number of high-tech products from various countries. Only after they have copied a certain amount of technology and accumulated funds can they start to innovate.

Therefore, Dr. Xiaonan believed that as long as China's laparoscopic machines could be shown to the Japanese and studied thoroughly, it would be very easy for Japan to make its own laparoscopic machines.

"Mr. President, now there is a good opportunity. According to what Dr. Lin said, the thoracoscopic machine he made for my wife has not been taken away yet. It is placed in the operating room, and the staff who is in charge of this mysterious machine is also Dr. Lin's confidant.

If we had the opportunity to visit this machine and take pictures, we would have a rough idea of ​​how laparoscopic surgery works. If we could also take the machine apart and look inside, we would have a good grasp of the core principles.

President, this is a great opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Nango Saburo paced a few steps, hesitant in his heart. After all, this was stealing other people's technology, and he could be a Japanese friend in name.

Of course, a so-called friend can stab the other person in the back a few times, but the prerequisite is that the interests must be great enough, so great that he is willing to turn against you.

"Xiao Nan, give me your estimate. If laparoscopic surgery can be popularized, what will it bring to your medical community? And what can it create for our company?"

Dr. Xiaonan answered without hesitation:

"This is a disruptive, revolutionary and innovative technological change that will change the course of surgical operations. For patients like yours, conventional surgical operations cannot be performed, but laparoscopic surgery can. How many lives can this save?

Laparoscopic surgery can do things that conventional surgery cannot do, so there is only one outcome: conventional surgery will be gradually eliminated, and the future will definitely be dominated by laparoscopic surgery, including thoracoscopy, laparoscope, hysteroscopy, etc.

As for the company, if we can master the production and sales of laparoscope machines, then this technology alone can earn our company at least several billion, or even hundreds of billions of dollars every year, and help our Nichimen Company become the largest financial group in Japan. "

"Yoshi~~~"

Nango Saburo was moved, as if colorful banknotes were flying in the sky before his eyes.

"It seems that we must acquire this laparoscope technology. Even if we can't get the first-hand design drawings, we want to see the real thing, and it would be best if we could open it and take a look. By the way, does this Doctor Lin have any requests?"

Doctor Xiaonan reported truthfully:
“Dr. Lin’s original words were: I am prepared to sacrifice so much and give so much, so shouldn’t I get what I deserve?
So, President, I think Dr. Lin has not only hinted, but has directly stated that if he can get benefits, he will open the thoracoscopic machine for us, and only tonight. "

After these words were spoken, Nanxiang Saburo, who was originally very grateful to Lin Sanqi for performing the surgery on his wife, suddenly became a little bored and then contemptuous.

"He who dares to betray his own country is a despicable person.

Before the operation, I gave Dr. Lin a check for 500 million U.S. dollars. This amount of money is a huge sum of money not only in poor China, but also in the United States, a number that an ordinary person cannot earn in a lifetime.

I thought he was satisfied, but his greed exceeded my expectations. This is good. As the Chinese say, a fly won't nail an egg that has no cracks. If he had been dedicated to the public, perhaps we wouldn't have had such a good opportunity. "

Doctor Xiaonan also nodded heavily and said:

"Yes, President, this is a good opportunity, but he dared to accept 500 million as a red envelope, so what will we have to pay for him to sell top-secret information this time?"

Nango Saburo sneered, revealing his heroic nature:
"I have no shortage of money, and neither does our Nichimen Company. Millions or tens of millions may be huge sums of money to others, but they are just numbers in my eyes. Besides, compared to the billions and hundreds of billions of dollars that will be made every year in the future, what does this little money mean?
Now I spend hundreds of millions of dollars every year on medical-related laboratories. For the entire group, our R&D expenses account for 20% of total revenue, which is more than ten billion US dollars a year.

Xiaonan, innovation is the foundation of business development. If we innovate a new technology and can monopolize the entire market, that’s when we’ll make a lot of money, so we can’t be bothered with the little gains and losses in front of us.”

Dr. Xiaonan thought, I am not a tycoon, how much money you invest has nothing to do with me? I only care about how much salary you give me every year and how much research funding you support me.

But on the surface, Japanese subordinates are all super good kids.

"Yes, President, you are far-sighted. I sincerely admire you, so our company is developing better and better."

Leaders like to hear flattery. Even if they know you are flattering them, they feel good about it. Doing so will make you feel confident in everything you do, as if everything is under control.

Nango Saburo had already thought of the price by this time:
"Xiao Nan, go talk to Dr. Lin now. If he just lets us see the machine, it'll be $10. If he can turn on the machine and let us try to operate it, it'll be $50.
If he is willing to open the machine's shell and let us take pictures of the internal parts and electronic components, he will give us $500 million; if we can use this laparoscope machine tonight, we promise to restore the machine before dawn, and give him $1000 million. "Dr. Xiao Nan bowed repeatedly, remembering the boss's words, and was a little puzzled:
"Boss, why is there such a big difference in the amount before and after?"

Nango Saburo said expressionlessly:
"Show us the machine and let you operate it. These requests are very simple for Dr. Lin, and I think he will agree to it, but what is the use of this in developing a machine?
I want to fully understand the entire structure and design parameters of this machine, which will inevitably require dismantling the machine, but this will likely result in it being discovered, so the risk of doing so is enormous, and Dr. Lin may not agree.

Have you ever heard that there is no absolute loyalty in the world, anyone can betray, if the other party is unwilling to betray, it may be that the chips are not enough. So I gave him a number that he couldn't refuse.

If he is willing to give us the machine for one night and let us study it, do you think $1000 million is too much? If you can save a few years or even decades of detours and make the laparoscope machine in advance, how many tens of millions can you save?"

Xiao Nan Xingshu is still a little worried:

"What if Dr. Lin refuses to agree? What if he only lets us take pictures to see the appearance?"

Nango Saburo asked back:
"So what do we have to lose? At least you know how the laparoscope works, which is also of great help, isn't it?"

Kokusu Kokusu was able to become a top doctor in Japan, so his IQ was definitely higher than most people. Now he completely understood his boss' intentions, so he stood at attention:
"Hi, I'll go talk to Dr. Lin now."

Lin Sanqi was not idle at this time, but found Leader Cheng and Leader Jing.

The two leaders did not know about the existence of thoracoscopy, and they did not even see the "strange" small incision on Mrs. Nanxiang.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

After all, he is a senior leader of the administrative department. It is enough for him to come in person to express his condolences and concern. As for how the doctor performed the operation and whether the incision is big or small, they don't care at all.

Seeing Lin Sanqi coming in, the two leaders who were chatting stopped.

Leader Jing said with a smile:
"Comrade Sanqi, this is incredible. I never thought that you are not only good at treating internal medicine, but you can also perform surgical operations perfectly. This time you have brought honor to our country."

Leader Cheng also looked at Lin Sanqi with appreciation:
"This Nango Saburo also said a lot of good things to me. It seems that he really values ​​his wife. He also expressed the highest gratitude to us. I guess the transfer fee through the Nichimen Company can be reduced by one point in the future."

The two leaders were in a relaxed mood, but Lin Sanqi was scratching his head, feeling a little unconfident.

He was afraid that after he made his request, the two leaders would turn against each other.

It was Leader Jing who noticed Lin Sanqi's embarrassment and asked:
"Comrade Sanqi, do you have any difficulties that need help from the organization? Don't worry, you are our favorite now, so feel free to ask for anything. We will solve them if we can, and report them to the higher authorities if we can't."

Lin Sanqi quickly took the kettle and refilled the water for the two leaders, then gritted his teeth and said:

"Two leaders, I am keeping you here today because I have a personal matter that I would like to ask for your help. I want my parents and family to immigrate to Hong Kong."

"what?"

Sure enough, the two leaders, who were smiling just now, became serious in an instant.

Leader Cheng crossed his hands, placed them on the table and asked seriously:
"Comrade Sanqi, has your family encountered any threat? Don't worry, we are here. I don't think anyone would dare to threaten you and your family!"

Lin Sanqi quickly waved his hands: "It's not that my family has been threatened, leader, please listen to my explanation."

Leader Jing looked out the window, confirmed that no one was around and said patiently:

"Don't worry, you can tell us anything. Since you made this request, you must have your reasons. Tell us."

What can Lin Sanqi say? Does it mean that there will be strong winds and rainstorms in the future? People like Lin Kushen who lived in small Western-style buildings and drove cars before liberation will be easily exposed to wind and rain, and if things go wrong, their boats will capsize and people will die?
This is a matter of the future. Lin Sanqi has a God's perspective, but others don't, so it naturally cannot be an excuse.

"My dear leaders, it's like this. You see, we just announced that we had conquered tuberculosis and established an infectious disease hospital a few months ago, and now the Americans are rushing over like sharks smelling something.

As for the Japanese, this Nango Saburo knew that we could treat tuberculosis, so he hurriedly sent his wife here for treatment. Although surgery only happened occasionally, it also shows that anti-tuberculosis drugs have attracted the attention of the Japanese.

The American is a professor at a Harvard University research institute. Although he is nominally under the banner of the World Health Organization, he is actually here to conduct an investigation at his own expense. The same is true for the Japanese, who mainly came here as private individuals.

But once these two groups of people are sure that we do have anti-tuberculosis drugs, they will definitely try their best to get their hands on this world-class medical invention. If they can’t get it, they will definitely find ways to illegally copy it.”

Leader Cheng slammed the table and said: "Imperialism is determined to destroy us."

Leader Jing also commented: "In the face of interests, friendship is bullshit. Comrade Sanqi is right to have this concern."

When Lin Sanqi heard that the two leaders had a preliminary understanding, he continued:
"I have said before that everything I have belongs to the country. The overseas bases that provide me with anti-tuberculosis drugs are also composed of Chinese people. We all have a Chinese heart. So whether it is me or my friends, our hearts are towards China. Please rest assured, leaders.

But anti-tuberculosis drugs are different. If tuberculosis drugs were in the hands of our country, those gangsters abroad would use ideology to deprive us of our drug patents under the banner of equal treatment for everyone.

This is also the reason why I applied for global patents for several anti-tuberculosis drugs in Hong Kong. As long as the drugs are in the hands of a private company, it will be difficult for rogue countries to directly deprive them of their rights, otherwise they will break the rules of the game.”

Leader Jing knew about this, so he explained to Leader Cheng:
"Comrade Sanqi's concerns are justified. Look at our current export trade. Except for direct trade with third world countries, we need an intermediary company to trade with other developed countries because developed countries do not recognize us."

The issues involved in foreign trade are very complex.

One is how do foreign countries place orders? How do domestic markets promote products?

Another thing is the terrible tariffs. Because you don’t have diplomatic relations and don’t have most-favored-nation treatment, the tariffs are frighteningly high.

Finally, how to settle the bill? The two countries' financial systems are not connected and are incompatible, and the exchange rate fluctuates, which is a problem.

Therefore, if the country wants to engage in export trade, it can only entrust trade intermediaries in third countries, and Nippon Cotton Company is one of them.

These middlemen are not doing good deeds. They want to make a profit from the price difference. They either take a commission or China sells to them at a low price and they resell at a high price.

This was the frustration our country faced in the 1960s, and this situation did not end until we joined the WTO.

By the same token, if the patent for anti-tuberculosis drugs is in the hands of the Chinese government, how can the drugs produced in China be exported?
There is no way to export
First of all, your drug must be approved by the exporting country, such as the US FDA. You must submit all the information and conduct clinical trials according to FDA requirements.

As China and Western countries are still in a state of hostility, it is obvious that Chinese medicines cannot be directly exported to any developed country.

Russia and its Eastern European lackeys have basically fallen out, and they may not want to purchase Chinese medicines anymore.

Of course, some people will say that China was the first to develop the anti-tuberculosis drug and has exclusive ownership of it. It would be their loss if they don’t buy it, since it is foreigners who die anyway.

But don’t forget that drugs can be imported and copied. If you have a pill of anti-tuberculosis drug imported into a foreign country, foreign pharmaceutical companies can easily copy it.

In this regard, India is a gangster. No matter what medicine you have, I will imitate it. What can you do about it?

Similarly, it is not just India that is being rogue. In a huge market worth tens of billions of dollars a year, governments and pharmaceutical companies in any country will act like hooligans and copy China's anti-tuberculosis drugs. What can you do about it?
The same goes for a weak country having no diplomacy.

So Lin Sanqi can't beat them now, so he can only join them superficially to gain the greatest benefits. (End of this chapter)
