Chen Xia also explained to his father-in-law at home:
"To attract the attention of relevant departments, I plan to invest HK$1 million in research funding and provide a full set of laboratory equipment. This laboratory can be set up in our hospital. I will also donate two of the most advanced Japanese-made gastroscopes to our gastroenterology department."
Comrade Lao Gu was shocked. "So much? Other hospitals are lucky to get a few thousand yuan for research projects. You're investing 1 million Hong Kong dollars right now. Isn't that too much?"
After all, the old man is his own family member, and he feels a little sorry for his son-in-law spending this money. After all, this is the money for his eldest grandson's milk powder in the future.
"Dad, this is a huge investment. Anyone who joins our lab will not only be able to use the most advanced equipment, but also receive a high salary. This will attract more talented people to join us."
Is 1 million Hong Kong dollars a lot? This is definitely a huge sum of money for a mainland hospital. It is almost 400,000 RMB. You have to know that even with several salary increases, Chen Xia's monthly salary plus subsidies is only 85 RMB.
The average salary for an average employee is around 50 yuan, and that's at Yuezhou People's Hospital, which has good performance and can pay the full amount. At a less busy hospital, 30 or 40 yuan is considered good.
Chen Xia invested 1 million Hong Kong dollars at once. Not to mention the doctors in Yuezhou Hospital and the Provincial First Hospital, with such conditions, he could easily find a bunch of top experts in top domestic hospitals such as Capital Union Hospital and Shanghai Huashan Hospital.
Even decades later, this country's health system is still short of money. All the money that should be used for scientific research is used to build hospital buildings that are as beautiful as palaces.
Dean Gu was relieved. His son-in-law was doing something serious, so of course he would fully support him. The key point was that this was indeed a great thing for Yuezhou People's Hospital. It would bring both fame and fortune, and he, as the dean, would have made a great contribution.
A few days later, Xiangjiang Pumpkin Vine Pharmaceutical Company officially sent a letter, expressing its desire to cooperate with Yuezhou First Hospital to establish a laboratory with the topic of "Helicobacter pylori Research".
Because the Department of Gastroenterology of the Provincial First Hospital refused to participate, the project was undertaken by the superior hospital, Chen Chun, a gastroenterologist at the Provincial First Hospital, and the Department of Gastroenterology of Yuezhou People's Hospital, and the laboratory was located in Yuezhou People's Hospital.
Hong Kong will provide a full set of laboratory and clinical instruments, provide related drugs free of charge in the later stage, and provide HK$1 million as research funding.
This money can only be used for its intended purpose, and every staff member involved in the research project can receive a monthly remuneration of 100 yuan.
As soon as the news was announced, the Department of Gastroenterology of Yuezhou People's Hospital was in jubilation, and almost everyone wanted to join the research team.
A monthly subsidy of 100 yuan is almost twice the normal salary. The price you pay is just doing some boring experiments, such as bacterial culture and extracting some gastric mucosal specimens. How big of a deal is that?
When the other departments of the hospital found out, they were so jealous that every time Chen Xia ran into the old directors, he'd be asked when he could find them some research projects. His shoulders were slapped until they were almost broken.
Lian Ren Yuanfei couldn't help but run to the General Affairs Department to find Chen Xia to "find out" what topics Hong Kong was interested in?
A few more days passed.
Yuezhou People's Hospital formally reported to the Yuezhou Regional Health Bureau. Director Mao was a little confused when he saw that it involved both foreign investment and a research project.
When did People's Hospital become so awesome? Even pharmaceutical companies from Hong Kong are actively asking for cooperation?
But he had never experienced this kind of project application, and this involved foreign investment, which was not something a small director like him could decide, so he quickly reported it to the Provincial Health Department.
Now, after the CT machine, Yuezhou People's Hospital has once again set off the province's health system.
Provincial First Hospital: We rejected this project. Humph, we look down on it.
Provincial Second Hospital: Brother, if you don’t like it, you can transfer it to us. 1 million Hong Kong dollars is a lot of fat meat.
Provincial Third Hospital: The guy on the first floor is an idiot.
All hospitals in the province gave thumbs up to the Provincial Third Hospital.
The Provincial First Hospital has a lot of grievances but cannot express them in words.
After Dean Xiang Yanhong learned about the project application of Yuezhou People's Hospital from the Health Department, he unexpectedly heard a rumor that the Hong Kong side had first approached the Provincial First Hospital, but after the Provincial First Hospital rejected it, they turned to Yuezhou People's Hospital.
This made Dean Xiang so angry that he ran back to the hospital to find the head of the relevant department to find out what happened.
When he learned that the director of the Department of Gastroenterology, Qian Tanglai, had actually proactively rejected the cooperation from Hong Kong, he was so angry that he smashed the cup and called Qian Tanglai to his office and scolded him for three days.
It was Qian Tang's bad luck that he ran into the gun.
Now all hospitals are working hard to generate revenue, but this idiot doesn't even want such a huge sum of money, and in foreign currency. Is he completely out of his mind?
This isn't just a matter of money; it's also a matter of reputation. This is international cooperation; how many hospitals in China can do this? And they're really eager to come.
This was something that other hospitals would have been unable to obtain even if they had hoped, but Qian Tanglai was so short-sighted as to refuse it outright, and he did not even inform the hospital afterwards.
What era is this? This is an era where organizational and collective interests are above all else, and adjustments are made whenever they are asked.
On the fourth day, the hospital officially issued a document dismissing Qian Tanglai from his position as director of the Department of Gastroenterology and appointing him as deputy director of the Quality Control Department.
Jiang Tianshui, deputy director of the Department of Gastroenterology, got a good deal and was promoted on the spot and directly appointed as the official.
Hospitals are where gossip spreads the fastest, and everyone is wondering which great figure Director Qian has offended. You know, department heads in hospitals are rarely replaced easily; they usually hold their positions until retirement.
The doctors in the gastroenterology department were even more shocked, and many versions of the story emerged, but without exception, they all believed that this was caused by Director Qian offending Chen Chun.
After all, everyone saw that Chen Chun’s application for a research project was rejected by Director Qian a few days ago.
Therefore, Chen Xia's background became the focus of everyone's discussion. A talented person who could attract investment from Hong Kong and force the department director to step down made everyone feel uneasy and reflect on whether they had offended her in the past.
And where was Chen Chun herself? She was in the dean's office at that moment.
Dean Xiang personally called him over, and together with several vice presidents, they began to comfort Chen Chun with a smile. Their purpose was very clear: to find out what the subject was and whether there was still room for recovery.
"Comrade Chen Chun, on behalf of the hospital, I apologize for the injustice you suffered earlier. It's a good thing for young people to be motivated and enterprising. Our country's four modernizations need talents like you."
This was the first time Chen Chun had such close contact with the dean, and he felt a little embarrassed. He quickly stood up:
"Please rest assured, Dean, I will work hard, study hard, and become an excellent member of the Communist Party and a qualified internist."
Who doesn’t know how to speak official language?
