Chapter 379: The Condition of the Health Room and a New High
the first two years.
Under the promotion of Wang Mengde, the traditional Chinese medicine "trust" plan that was abandoned halfway in the previous life has long been successfully implemented.
All the traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceutical factories and countless scientific research institutions in the country were merged.
Eventually, two huge "monster" enterprises were formed in the north and the south.
Take the northern Chinese medicine enterprises as an example. They have hundreds of pharmaceutical factories of all sizes, and scientific research institutions have been merged into more than a dozen, with hundreds of thousands of employees alone.
When these resources are integrated together, coupled with the support of administrative power, the capabilities that emerge are beyond everyone's expectations.
In pharmaceutical factories, many outdated drugs, drugs with serious side effects or outdated products have been discontinued and they have switched to producing new drugs, other highly effective drugs or drugs for export.
Not only has the production efficiency been greatly improved, but a lot of resources have also been saved.
The merger of a large number of scientific research institutions has also ushered in a period of explosive growth in new drug research.
Countless targeted special medicines have been developed one after another, and some of them have been made into Chinese patent medicines and then entered major hospitals, health centers or clinics.
Compared with previous Chinese herbal medicines that required patients to prepare them at home, Chinese patent medicines in the form of pills, granules, and other forms are indeed much more convenient.
Not only newly developed medicines, but also some prescriptions recorded in ancient books, as well as prescriptions that were sorted out and verified to be effective during the prescription donation movement were all taken out and then made into Chinese patent medicines.
According to statistics from the medical and health departments, the number of Chinese patent medicines produced last year was several times more than in previous years.
These medicines not only bring convenience to doctors and the general public, but some of them have even been exported abroad.
Of course, due to competition from Western medicine, the export volume is not large and the foreign exchange earned is limited.
However, although there is not much meat on it, like a mosquito leg, it is also a good start, indicating that some people abroad are accepting traditional Chinese medicine.
Wang Mengde believes that with the passage of time, under the influence of water dripping through the stone, in about twenty years, when traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine break out of the country, the power they unleash will absolutely astonish everyone.
It's approaching noon.
Wang Mengdecai walked out of the health room.
The conversation with Zhou Xiaoli gave him a lot of gains and gave him some understanding of the current medical and health conditions in rural areas.
Chinese patent medicines now occupy more than half of the space on the medicine cabinets in the health clinics, and on weekdays, most of the methods and medicines used to treat diseases are from traditional Chinese medicine.
Although he couldn't guarantee that the same condition existed in all clinics across the country, Wang Mengde was already satisfied.
The current situation can be said to be very good. Traditional Chinese medicine has not declined as it did in later generations, and there is no market for Western medicine capital yet.
It can be said that in the country, there is a great opportunity to develop traditional Chinese medicine without any obstacles.
He believes that in just another 20 years, the foundation of traditional Chinese medicine in the country will be consolidated, and even if the market is opened up and foreign Western medicine capital enters the country, it will not cause much waves.
Maybe, they will even rush into the enemy's base camp.
Tiange Village.
Wang Ning and Zhou Tingting, wearing brand new cotton-padded clothes and with rosy faces, walked out of the production team.
Next to him, the other neighbors looked even worse than him. They all had sallow complexions and thin bodies.
With his hands behind his back, Wang Ning walked slowly towards home while bragging loudly.
A few neighbors stood by, smiling and agreeing in a low voice.
There’s no way, the Wang family is rich now.
Both of his sons went to work at the Shahe Meat Processing Factory as formal employees.
This is commercial grain, and everyone is envious.
At the same time, Wang Ning's nephew, the little guy named Wang Mengde who grew up in Tiangezhuang, is very capable.
It is said that there is special power in the capital.
The Wang family can live such a good life now, it’s all thanks to him.
The large amount of supplies delivered every once in a while made other households in the production team envious.
In addition to food, there are also a large number of daily necessities.
Not to mention anything else, the new cotton-padded clothes worn by the couple alone weigh more than ten kilograms of cotton.
Not to mention that at home, they would have meat for a meal from time to time, whole grains to fill their stomachs, and they could often eat white flour as well.
It’s not that no one was jealous, but after someone secretly reported it to the commune, the people who came down to investigate went back and there was no further follow-up.
Someone who was well-informed had inquired about it, and found out that even the county town knew about it. However, when the leaders heard that the person involved was a relative of Wang Mengde and that the supplies were sent by Wang Mengde, they let the matter drop.
When he returned to his doorstep, Wang Ning was still feeling a little unsatisfied. He had just boasted to several neighbors about his two sons working at the Shahe Meat Processing Factory and how they were highly valued by their superiors.
The flattery from those people made him feel very happy.
Although he hadn't heard enough, he had already reached the door of his house and could only enter the yard regretfully.
He thought to himself that next time he had the chance, he would tell his neighbors about his nephew's glorious deeds in the capital.
"Uncle, Madam, it's time to get off work!"
In the living room of the main hall, Wang Mengde greeted with a smile.
"Oh, Meng De is back.
I just came back from work at the production team, why didn't you come to see me? If I had known you were coming back, I would have asked for leave in the morning."
A smile instantly appeared on Wang Ning's dark face, and his wrinkled face looked like a chrysanthemum.
He was extremely enthusiastic towards his nephew.
Family members know their own business. Most of the credit for their family’s current status goes to Wang Mengde.
The two children's jobs, as well as the food, clothing and other expenses of the whole family, were all provided by each other.
Next to her, Zhou Tingting was also busy greeting everyone enthusiastically. If Wang Mengde hadn't stopped her, she would have slaughtered an old hen at home.
"Meng De, your cousin and his younger cousin are having lunch at the meat processing factory. I won't be working this afternoon, so I'll have a couple of drinks with you."
Wang Ning took out a bottle of Erguotou from the cupboard and said with a smile.
He specifically asked Wang Mengwei to buy this bottle of wine and keep it at home, waiting for Wang Mengde to come back and drink it together.
"Uncle, I have something to do this afternoon, so I won't drink today. Let's come back and have a good drink together during the Chinese New Year."
Wang Mengde refused with a smile.
He was not refusing, but he really had something to do. He had to go directly to Guang'anmen Hospital in the afternoon. Several foreign patients with serious conditions had come there in the past two days.
Although he had the disease under control for the time being and there were doctors and nurses on duty in the intensive care unit 24 hours a day, he was still a little worried.
He still wanted to go and take a look in person to avoid any trouble if something happened.
Now he is very famous abroad. As more and more foreign patients are cured, more patients with difficult and complicated diseases have new choices.
This would harm the interests of other well-known foreign hospitals.
Firstly, a large number of patients have come to China, and they are all high-quality clients who are rich and powerful or at least from middle-class families.
These people can afford the minimum medical fee, and if they go to other places, the income of those hospitals will be reduced significantly.
At the same time, many of their incurable illnesses were cured after a trip to China.
This makes it seem that their medical skills are inferior to others, and the global hospital rankings they previously marketed have become a joke.
There is a conflict of interest, so those large hospitals or medical institutions have recently set up some obstacles, openly or covertly. However, at present, the impact on China is not great.
The crushing power of technology has made all conspiracies and intrigues pale in comparison.
But if one or two patients get into trouble in China, that would be a different story.
Those people or organizations will never miss this opportunity and will definitely add fuel to the fire and let the news spread throughout the entire Western developed countries.
At that time, not only will we have to deal with the families of the patients who have been in the accident, but it will also affect the trust of potential patients.
“Since you still have something to do, I won’t force you to drink.
By the way, you just said you would come back to celebrate the New Year this year? Are you sure?"
Wang Ning also knew what to prioritize. Since his nephew said something was wrong, it must be a big deal, so he just put the bottle of wine into the cupboard.
At the same time, there were some pleasant surprises.
If my younger brother and his family come to Tiangezhuang to celebrate the New Year, it will be a lively time.
"I have discussed with my parents that as long as the weather permits, we will all come to Tiangezhuang to celebrate the New Year this year."
Wang Mengde said affirmatively.
These days, the Chinese New Year is a big event, and family reunion is taken very seriously.
Unless there are special circumstances, everyone hopes to be reunited with their families during the Chinese New Year.
"Okay, okay. This year the brigade is going to slaughter two pigs. I'll buy some good meat in advance."
Wang Ning said happily.
"Uncle, there's no need to spend so much money. When we come back, we will definitely bring a lot of meat. You don't need to buy any more, or it will go bad and be wasted."
Wang Mengde hurriedly persuaded.
There are more and more foreign patients now, and currently there are nearly two hundred in Guang'anmen Hospital.
Among these people, there are many rich and powerful people. The diseases they suffer from are considered terminal illnesses abroad, and only Wang Mengde is confident that he can cure them.
Therefore, everyone will try to please him before they recover from their illness.
There is always a shortage of various supplies and gifts at ordinary times, and during the Spring Festival, which is the most important festival in China, those people will definitely not miss it and will definitely prepare a large number of gifts.
Although there is still about a month to go before the Spring Festival, those people have already revealed, intentionally or unintentionally, that they are preparing to transport a large amount of supplies to China.
By then, even if Wang Mengde only wanted a small portion of it, it would be enough for more than a dozen people to have a prosperous year.
"Then I'll buy a pig's head and stew it to make pig's head meat."
Wang Ning thought about it, then said it readily.
He had learned from Wang Mengde that among the supplies brought back by the foreigners, there were a lot of beef, mutton and pork, but there were basically no offal and animal heads.
The two-day holiday passed in a flash.
January 2nd.
Monday.
At the weekly leadership meeting.
Dean Lu was seen sitting at the top seat with an excited look on his face.
Restraining his joy, he began to preside over the meeting.
After more than an hour, everyone finally reported what happened last week, and Dean Lu smiled and said:
"Comrades, I have good news for you.
Yesterday, after hard work and overtime by comrades in the finance department, the statistics were compiled and it was found that Guang'anmen Hospital received a total of more than 70 million US dollars in medical fees throughout last year.
This is double the amount of last year, which can be said to be a qualitative improvement.”
After saying this, he excitedly started to applaud.
After hearing this, many of the dozen or so people present looked a little dazed. They looked in the direction of Wang Mengde and clapped mechanically.
Wang Mengde was also a little surprised. Only one day had passed and last year's medical fees had been calculated.
This is too fast!
Three minutes later.
Dean Lu continued:
“Although the money from foreign patients was not kept in Guang’anmen Hospital, I asked the financial department to keep records of every income.
That’s why we were able to get last year’s medical fee income so quickly.”
"At the same time, I want to say thank you to Comrade Wang Mengde for your hard work.
During this year, not only did I have to shoulder research and other tasks, but I also treated many foreign patients every month, bringing a lot of foreign exchange income to the country. "
“Especially in the last two or three months, the amount of monthly medical fees has increased very quickly.
In the last month, it even reached over 8 million US dollars.”
"Next year, I hope you can continue to work hard and lead your team to make more contributions to the country and Guang'anmen Hospital."
He had been feeling very upset since he learned the specific number in the morning.
This number is really too big.
Even though he had a premonition, he still felt a sense of unreality when the specific numbers came out.
It was the director of the finance department who confirmed this with him several times before he accepted the fact.
"Very good.
Guang'anmen Hospital has achieved such great success, and next year the higher authorities will definitely provide more support to our Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine."
"Not only did he earn so much foreign exchange, but he also selflessly taught his medical skills to other comrades. This spirit deserves praise."
"Yes, I heard that some comrades from various departments participated in it and learned a lot of techniques. They even shared their secret recipes and proven formulas with everyone without reservation."
In the conference room, everyone expressed their opinions one after another, and everyone was praising Wang Mengde.
It's really because of what he did in the second half of last year.
The benefits that can be gained from this project of treating foreign patients are enormous.
At the beginning, there were few people, and although everyone was jealous, they all took into consideration Pu Lao's face and Wang Mengde's youth and superb medical skills, so they all patiently waited for the opportunity.
Sure enough, the opportunity finally came!
Two or three months ago, as the number of foreign patients increased, people from other departments also began to get involved.
Even though there are many departments and people in each department can only be responsible for a small part, because the benefits involved are so huge, everyone can eat their fill.
"President, fellow comrades.
Such great achievements are not the result of my own efforts alone, but the result of the collective efforts.
Thanks to the organization and everyone's assistance, I was able to successfully complete the tasks assigned to me last year.
In the new year, I will achieve better results under the leadership of my superiors and the dean, and with the support of all my comrades. "
After everyone had finished speaking, Wang Mengde spoke modestly.
