"Mr. Gu, your proposal is very interesting, we will consider it..."
"Mr. Gu, we are very willing to cooperate with your work, but..."
"Mr. Gu, we also hope that. Really, that is also our wish, but..."
"Mr. Gu, you have put forward a very good idea. Give us some time to think about it..."
"Captain Gu, the Spring Festival is coming soon, and everyone is taking a break. Let's not wait in these few days until after the New Year, right?"
It is already 2023, and Gu Jun has been working hard every day to promote the "Free Medical Care Plan for All Humanity" project.
The organization has equipped him with a working team, all of which are elites in related fields. They have also contacted top economists from the Tianxuan and Xuan worlds, and advocates of universal free medical insurance for discussion. No matter how difficult it is, their team can
He is doing this seriously.
This plan cannot be viewed solely from the perspective of economic impact. It is striving for a healthier, more equal, and more united world, and is related to the dignity and safety of all mankind.
This is their purpose.
Departments in various countries, major pharmaceutical giants, sometimes it is a phone call, a remote video conference, sometimes it is a face-to-face meeting, Gu Jun leads the team all over the world.
In a blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed. The Spring Festival of 2023 has come very early, and New Year’s Eve will be on January 21st three days later.
The "free medical care plan for all mankind" has still not made big progress, and the small progress is mostly just in words. The biggest results are still the limited price reductions of some drugs promised by the pharmaceutical industry, and the commitment of various countries to adjust their own medical insurance policies.
Improvement, as for participation covering the whole world and all mankind, there is little interest.
Gu Jun and the others are not forcing it to happen in one fell swoop. Those countries that are capable can implement it in their own countries first, which will be a huge progress.
But it is still difficult. Even in Citigroup, the most developed, richest, and most practical country in the world, their promotion is like throwing a stone into the sea, unable to break any waves.
Citi has a population of about 327 million, about 85 million people are underinsured, and 28 million people have no medical insurance. These people enjoy poor medical services.
In Citiland, comprehensive coverage of medical insurance has always been a major issue.
There are many voices advocating for universal free medical care, but they have long been treated with ambiguity and accused of being unrealistic.
How much more will it cost? Where will the money come from? How will new taxes be added? How to buy medical insurance? How much will each class spend?
These are the most common and core questions about universal free medical care.
As for Citigroup, it still has a reliable economic research foundation and realistic and feasible plans, which can be seen in the presidential elections in recent years.
Advocates say that lofty goals require feasible policies. In the plan they studied and designed, after the implementation of universal free medical care, some aspects will actually save money. Overall, it will not actually cost much more money, but it will provide people with
It brings about huge improvement in the health status of the patient, forming a virtuous cycle.
In terms of taxation, it is natural to collect more taxes from capital and the wealthy class, cancel subsidies to them, and let them bear more medical insurance costs; collect less taxes from the working class and disadvantaged groups, give them more subsidies, and pay
Health insurance costs less.
In this way, everyone will enjoy high-quality medical services and live in a better society.
If we magnify the matter to the whole world, the two realms of heaven and Xuan, the complexity of the plan will increase hundreds and thousands of times.
However, at least in Citiland, universal free medical care is feasible; in other countries, it is also feasible.
But it is necessary that most people at the upper, middle and lower levels are willing to make changes and implement them.
After coming to Citigroup, Gu Jun visited the WMO headquarters, the FBM headquarters, and some other departments to visit, lobby, and explain his interests. The most he received was ambiguous treatment. He seemed to still be walking in the world.
In the putrid mud, it was difficult to even move with both feet, let alone stride forward.
The Chinese New Year is just three days away. Maybe it’s time to go back to the hometown to celebrate the festival, visit Wu Shiyu’s house, play at Cai Zixuan’s house, and get red envelopes...
It's just that Gu Jun can't relax. This lack of progress makes it harder and harder for him to fall asleep every night.
"Let's stay one more day and run around a few more places." Gu Jun said to the team members. The more support, the more strength.
That night, his trip was to attend a charity salon held in New York City. There would be many celebrities and wealthy people there. They have great influence and driving force in Citigroup. If they can win over these people,
Joining is considered a good progress.
The street lights were on and the salon was held in a banquet hall of a luxury hotel in this bustling city.
Gu Jun attended as a doctor of the GOA Mobile Task Force. He is now also a celebrity. There is no problem walking on the red carpet, which will only give reporters more topics. However, he entered through the side door of the hotel, avoiding the public eye.
.The organization has told us to keep a low profile and pay attention to our image.
However, the guests at the banquet knew that someone like him was coming, and some of them attended just because of this.
At this time, the huge banquet hall was full of people, and bursts of lively chatter and laughter could be heard. Gu Jun could speak English quite well now, and no translation was needed.
His eyes looked around the brightly lit surroundings. The men were wearing smart suits, the women were wearing gorgeous evening clothes, the waiters were walking through the crowd holding wine trays, and plates of exquisite food were placed on the salon table. He was dressed like this
People in GOA uniforms are like aliens.
"Hey, Mr. Gu!" A middle-aged wealthy businessman noticed him first. He called out in surprise, and many people looked at him with smiles and interest.
Now the whole world knows the existence of "supernatural power", and Gu Jun is one of the best fighters in GOA.
"Hello." Gu Jun nodded to them. He was not shy about this kind of occasion. Not to mention that when he was a rich man, he spent every day drinking and drinking. After all the experiences in the past two years, he could no longer feel any emotion about this kind of occasion.
On the contrary, he felt a little suppressed discomfort in his heart, and he didn't know the specific reason.
Maybe it's because there is no need for that much food there. No one here will eat that much, and it will just be thrown into the trash can in the end and wasted.
At the same time, several gentlemen and ladies came over.
Gu Jun had seen the guest list and recognized each of them. Some were wealthy businessmen, some were movie stars, and some were celebrities. The political stance of these people was quite left-wing, so it was reasonable to say that they were easy to win over.
After getting to know each other and greeting each other, Gu Jun quickly started lobbying, "Everyone, I want to talk to you about the 'Free Medical Care Plan for All Humanity'."
He had to abide by the principle of confidentiality and did not disclose information about the mysterious world, the Black Goat, the Negative Choice Life Society, etc. There was no need to say so much to make this claim.
This is not a new idea; we are committed to making the world a healthier place.
What is novel is the latter point. Otherwise, global disasters and plagues will continue to come and become more and more serious, and everyone living in the world will not be able to stay away.
"We have the responsibility to save the world." Gu Jun said sincerely, while looking at them and nodding, "When we get more, we have to give more."
"Of course, I agree with your point of view, Mr. Gu." The middle-aged wealthy businessman said loudly, "We absolutely have this responsibility."
"Yes." A female star actress also agreed, and everyone around them nodded, "That's right." "We can't let this world get any worse."
Gu Jun looked at them and said: "Our team is exploring feasible solutions. The biggest problem is where the money will come from, so we need to raise enough money and promote it like a snowball to give people confidence and gather strength.
"
He paused and spoke more solemnly: "Everyone, I sincerely invite you to sign and join this plan. We may operate as a foundation first. The plan has not yet been determined. More appropriate adjustments can be made. Once the first phase begins,
Action, this may require you to invest 15% of your annual income."
The men and women who had been nodding enthusiastically just now seemed to be stunned, and their words stopped.
"Mr. Gu, you mean... 15% of the annual income will be dedicated to this project? Other taxes will continue to be paid, and our taxes will be increased?"
"Yes, when we get more, we have to give more."
Gu Jun noticed that the expressions on the faces changed slightly.
Even a star actor who knows how to act very well can't hide the trace of embarrassment in his eyes.
