Chapter 572 You read that right, this is the money printing machine!
Liu Wei packed his luggage and prepared to take the school bus to Tianyue Island in Changzezhou on the outskirts of Suzhou and Hangzhou.
Liu Wei is a third-year clinical medicine graduate student at Suhang University School of Medicine.
Suhang University School of Medicine is a well-known medical school in the country, and its comprehensive ranking ranks among the top 10 in the country.
Among them, clinical medicine is the trump card major, and the annual admission score is 50 to 70 points higher than that of key undergraduate programs.
As a student majoring in a top major at a key university across the country, Liu Wei has a bright future.
Before graduating from graduate school, Liu Wei had already received offer letters from many employers.
These include Suhang University Affiliated Hospital, Suhang People's Hospital, etc.
Liu Wei's parents also found a job for Liu Wei in his hometown, Chengdu First People's Hospital.
These are all good places for Liu Wei, and every hospital has a staff - a business staff, and the job is stable.
But Liu Wei rejected these arrangements and chose a bigger challenge - going to the newly prepared severe pulmonary disease treatment center of Changtian Technology Group.
The Severe Pulmonary Disease Treatment Center is affiliated to Changtian Technology Group, and the medical staff there receive quite good treatment, but for Liu Wei's family, working in a private company is far inferior to working in a state-owned hospital.
After all, the word "stability" cannot be bought with a lot of money.
The reason why Liu Wei made this choice was not because of the high salary offered by the Severe Pulmonary Disease Treatment Center, but because Liu Wei understood after studying clinical practice that Changtian Technology's severe lung disease treatment method is unique in the world.
Severe lung disease has been the biggest problem in the history of human medicine for the past thousands of years, and it is almost an incurable disease.
In particular, the global influenza from 2002 to 2003 caused the death of many patients due to severe lung diseases, and caused human medicine to pay repeated attention to severe lung diseases.
Changtian Technology uses combined colony therapy to overcome related medical problems.
This is not a question of money at all, but a question of major progress in the history of human medicine.
Liu Wei Mingrui felt that Changtian Technology might open another medical path for mankind.
If people studying medicine only talk about money, then their entire life will be meaningless.
Liu Wei does not think he will become a savior in the future, but he feels that dedicating his short life to human medicine is more meaningful than living a mediocre life.
After all, money will last forever, but if a person makes due contributions to human science and technology, then this person will definitely be firmly remembered in human history!
Changtian Technology Implantation Lung Disease Treatment Center was established a year ago in Tianyue Island, Suhang City.
And it started recruiting students at Suhang University School of Medicine last year.
The requirements of the critical care center are relatively high. Not all fresh graduates can work. Instead, you are required to have certain grades in school and be recommended by school teachers.
Liu Wei's academic performance is very good, so he will get such an opportunity.
When we were about to get on the school bus, Chen Feng came to see us off and said, "Because are you really determined to go there?"
"I heard that Tianyue Island is a place where birds don't poop. I'm a local in Suzhou and Hangzhou and have never heard of it. I really don't know why Changtian Technology placed the treatment center in such a remote place."
Chen Feng is a native of Suhang City. He has some connections in his family and his grades are already good, so he will work in Suhang People's Hospital after graduation.
Chen Feng couldn't understand why Liu Wei wanted to go to the intensive care center. If the intensive care center was in the city center, then forget it, but in such a remote place, it was really far away from normal life, which was equivalent to confinement.
People have different ambitions, and some people's ideals are incomprehensible to ordinary people.
Liu Wei joked: "I want to dedicate myself to medicine!"
Chen Feng didn't believe this.
Chen Feng chose to be a doctor because his parents are both doctors. The most important thing is that being a doctor is stable and profitable.
Collecting red envelopes from patients for performing surgeries is the lowest form of making money.
Introducing to those terminally ill patients who have no choice but to sell drugs from certain special channels or overseas self-financed drugs can really make money.
Taking lung cancer as an example, a box of some targeted drugs costs RMB 20,000 to RMB 30,000, and a box can last for up to three or four days.
You can live, but your money will be used up. When your money is gone, you will die.
This is a monopoly and profiteering industry - the monopoly on life is the top monopoly.
Chen Feng dismissed Liu Wei's words, waved his hand and went to meet his friends to drink and play cards.
There were not many people on the school bus.
This proves that Changtian Technology is indeed striving for excellence in its talent selection, and would rather be short-term than poor.
I just got in the car and was about to do something to show the sweet smile of the short-haired girl next to me.
"Hello, are you going to the intensive care center too?"
Liu Wei felt better when he saw such a pure and lovely girl.
"Yes! Liu Wei, a clinical thoracic surgery professional!"
"Anesthesiology Yang Ran!"
With girls chatting together, you won't feel lonely along the way.
However, the undulating road is indeed very hypnotic.
Yang Ran slowly fell asleep and accidentally rested his head on Liu Wei's shoulder.
Liu Wei looked at Yang Ran who was sleeping deeply, and was too embarrassed to take his shoulders away, so he could only endure the pain.
I don’t know how long it took, but Liu Wei also fell asleep.
Suddenly, both of them were woken up by a burst of exclamations in the car.
Only then did Liu Wei and Yang Ran realize that they had actually fallen asleep relying on each other.
After an awkward smile, everyone noticed the noise in the car.
"What's going on?" Yang Ran asked softly.
Liu Wei also shook his head in confusion.
"Come on, come on, look! Sitting in the back row is Chen Xiao, Mr. Chen!"
It turns out that the school bus has arrived at Changzezhou and is crossing the cross-sea bridge from Changzezhou to Tianyue Island.
At this time, they happened to meet Chen Xiao's motorcade heading to Tianyue Island, so they were so excited.
Liu Wei also quickly looked out the window, hoping to catch a glimpse of Chen Xiao.
There are not many people who admire Liu Wei, and Chen Xiao is definitely one of them.
Because Liu Wei knew that although Chen Xiao was not very old, most of Changtian Technology's scientific research products and technological innovations were closely related to Chen Xiao.
And whether in the medical field or the semiconductor chip field, Chen Xiao leads Changtian Technology to break through the European and American containment step by step.
Although Liu Wei has not personally experienced the difficulties, he can have a deep feeling from the media reports.
Such people are the objects of their worship.
Soon the bus stopped at the entrance of the intensive care center.
A young woman with a very elegant temperament got on the car. She said: "Welcome to Changtian Science and Technology Severe Pulmonary Disease Treatment Center. We will read your names here in a moment. Those who read their names should follow the teacher."
This elegant young woman is none other than Qu Ping.
Qu Ping is currently the director of the critical care center and is fully responsible for the daily work of the critical care center.
Liu Wei walked down first and then extended his hand to help Yang Ran get off the school bus.
Qu Ping greeted every student who came down and told them, "Welcome to Tianyue Island."
Chen Xiao arrived at the intensive care center.
Shu Rou and Huang Ling greeted them at the door.
After meeting Chen Xiao, the two reported to Chen Xiao about the work of the critical care center.
Shu Rou said: "At present, all the hardware and software equipment of the treatment center have been completed, and we are just waiting for the announcement that the hospital can be opened."
Chen Xiao nodded and said: "We have contacted the relevant leaders of Suzhou and Hangzhou, and we will be able to complete the ribbon-cutting ceremony tomorrow and officially accept patients."
"I heard that the treatment center has 1,000 beds. How do you arrange it here?"
Shu Rou said: "Do I need to make any arrangements for this? I must meet the conditions for admission, and then I can be admitted to the hospital for treatment."
Chen Xiao smiled and shook his head and said, "Have you ever thought about the situation where medical resources are being squeezed?"
Before building the critical care center, Chen Xiao arranged for people to make a general understanding and statistics of the global situation of lung disease patients.
The number of patients with severe lung diseases in Xia, excluding lung cancer, is in the millions.
The number of patients suffering from severe lung diseases worldwide is likely to be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.
This number is quite terrifying.
Changtian Technology's critical treatment center has been completed and can receive patients, which means that the treatment center is the only medical treatment center in the world that can treat severe lung diseases.
It is conceivable that 1,000 beds simply cannot satisfy a large number of patients.
At the same time, there is also a critical care center in Jiangzhou Science and Technology New District, but the number of positions will not exceed 2,000.
Even with a full capacity of 3,000 beds, it is still very stretched.
Therefore, how to plan the use of beds is a very important question that must be answered.
Chen Xiao said: "30% of the beds are reserved for foreign patients. Foreign patients adopt an appointment system and must pay all treatment fees in advance."
"The remaining 70% of beds are reserved for domestic patients, who will be treated according to their priority."
Chen Xiao sighed and said: "I hope that our treatment center is just the beginning and can lead more hospitals to cooperate with us, so that more hospitals can introduce combined colony treatment methods and make this method a routine treatment for lung diseases in hospitals.
treatment method."
"Only when more and more hospitals participate, can most patients be treated."
Shu Rou also thinks what Chen Xiao said makes sense.
With 1,000 beds, there may be more than 1,000 new severe pulmonary patients in the world every day.
Everything is difficult at the beginning. The purpose of building the critical care center is not only to treat patients, but also to promote the technology.
Early in the morning on the second day, Chen Xiao, Qu Ping, Zhou Linghua and others, as well as relevant leaders from Suhang People's Hospital and Suhang University, all came to Tianyue Island.
They attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
In his speech at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the leaders of Suzhou and Hangzhou said: "I hope Tianyue Island can become an island of life and bring hope to patients with severe lung diseases around the world!"
The relevant departments of Xia State indeed attach great importance to joint military therapy.
From Changtian Technology's experiments to Professor Li's treatment, to this time's comprehensive clinical application.
It took three years.
Three years is actually a very short time for the clinical application of a new technology.
At the ribbon-cutting ceremony, a large number of media reported it live.
The media immediately informed the audience of the news, the ribbon cutting of the critical care center, and that patients with lung diseases could go to Changtian Technology’s Tianyue Island for treatment in a short while.
The reporters also very considerately announced several plans for medical treatment.
One is to make an appointment through the Critical Care Center's website.
When making an appointment, you need to fill in the patient's basic information (upload the diagnostic report and CT imaging data provided by a top-level hospital or above). The hospital will notify the patient by phone to come for treatment according to the patient's priority.
The second type is to conduct transfer treatment to a hospital that has a cooperative relationship with the critical care center and transfer severe patients to the critical care center.
The third option is to go to the site to register in person.
Of course, the above methods are all for domestic patients.
There is only one way for foreign patients.
That is to make an appointment through the website and pay the estimated treatment fee in full.
Currently, there are two types of treatment costs: internal and external.
The entire treatment cost for domestic patients is about 300,000.
This part of the money is not enough to cover the cost of Changtian Technology. Changtian Technology is basically losing money on treatment.
When setting this price, Chen Xiao actually had no intention of making money.
On the one hand, the economic conditions of domestic patients are not very good, but on the other hand, it is also good to gain influence.
But Changtian Technology is definitely short of money, so the most profitable part is the treatment of foreign patients.
The treatment cost for foreign patients is US$300,000 per case, excluding subsequent maintenance costs.
This price is basically 8 times the treatment price for domestic patients.
Don’t think that 30% of the beds, that is, 300 beds, can accommodate foreign patients for a long time.
The policy of the intensive care center is that you can only be admitted to the hospital after all examinations have been completed and the day before surgery.
There are only 6 days in total from surgery to discharge. As for if you need recovery or nursing care, I would be sorry to ask you to go to another hospital or hire your own nurse.
That is, the turnover cycle for 300 beds is 6 days.
Calculated based on 300,000 knives every 6 days, each bed costs 50,000 knives per day.
After deducting costs, Changtian Technology Critical Care Center’s profit per bed per day is approximately 50,000 RMB.
Of course, not all of this money is used to support the research and development and production of photolithography machines.
Chen Xiao plans to divide it into two parts for use.
Part of this is the establishment of a severe lung disease treatment fund.
Use money from foreign patients to subsidize domestic patients.
In this way, Changtian Technology can achieve a balanced cost for domestic patients without having to pay for it themselves.
The other part will only be used for the daily scientific research work of Changtian Technology.
The daily profit per bed is 50,000. With 300 beds, the daily profit is 15 million.
The daily profit is as high as 15 million, which is no different from a money printing machine.
If you search all the companies in Xia State, I'm afraid there won't be any company with such terrifying profits.
But this is just a theoretical calculation.
Because among the 15 million, 7 million will be used to subsidize domestic patients, and the other 8 million will be used for daily scientific research of Changtian Technology.
However, the premise for these calculations is to ensure that the 300 beds for foreign patients every day are full and there will not be any vacancies.
