With the full promotion and use of Helicobacter pylori quadruple therapy in Margaret Hospital, coupled with the instant success of sildenafil, Margaret's popularity and patient satisfaction in Hong Kong soared in just one month.
After all, Hong Kong is too small, and there are only so many patients, especially the rich, who either go to one hospital or another.
Most of the wealthy people in Hong Kong were not born rich. For example, a certain wicked guy started out by selling plastic flowers, and a certain jewelry tycoon started out as a live-in son-in-law.
Even a famous patriotic Hong Kong businessman lost his father and two older brothers when he was young, and was a poor boy who started from scratch.
In order to support the country, he drove a small wooden boat and risked his life to transport a large amount of medicines and supplies that were urgently needed in the mainland.
Therefore, these wealthy people all have stomach problems to some extent, and they are chronic stomach problems that have not been cured for many years.
Now that's great, when they heard that the Gastroenterology Department of Margaret Hospital had the latest drugs and plans for treating stomach problems, they all came.
Of course, rich people have privileges. They stay in VIP wards and are served by director-level doctors throughout the entire process. The nurses are all as beautiful as Hong Kong beauties.
Chen Shuqin has been in the jewelry business for many years and is actually not unfamiliar with these wealthy people. They all know each other and deal with each other on a regular basis.
Now that she has become the chairman of Margaret Hospital, the class gap between the two sides has narrowed and they get along much better.
Today, Mr. Zhou Yutong, the big boss of Zhou Jewelry, also came to the hospital to treat his stomach problems.
As soon as he got off the dispatch car, he saw Chen Shuqin waiting on the side, and he felt much more comfortable. This former subordinate still respected him so much.
"Aqin, long time no see."
"Uncle Zhou, you look good. Has our jewelry company made a fortune recently?"
While joking, Chen Shuqin took the initiative to support Mr. Zhou. The two have known each other for more than 20 years, so their relationship is naturally close and casual.
"You little girl, didn't you say you were going to open a jewelry store? How did you suddenly become the chairman of the hospital? When I heard that, I thought there was something wrong with my ears."
"Uncle Zhou, look at what you said. You don't even know how much I weigh. I'm here to be the head butler for my nephew from the mainland."
"Oh, your nephew from the mainland bought this? I remember it used to be owned by GlaxoSmithKline. Would they, the British company, be willing to sell it to someone from the mainland?"
"I don't know how our nephew got involved with British capital. They have many cooperative projects now and their relationship is very good."
This conversation was actually a test by Zhou Yutong on behalf of the wealthy people in Hong Kong.
Recently, a mysterious capital suddenly emerged in the Hong Kong market, opening a jewelry store, a pharmaceutical factory, and buying a hospital.
Mainlanders? Are there such powerful tycoons in the mainland? Zhou Yutong and his old friends just don't believe it.
The only explanation for why the mainland now has such strength and financial resources is the government.
Perhaps the nephew behind Chen Shuqin is actually the official's white glove, an attempt by the official to enter Hong Kong in a private capacity in order to cause unnecessary trouble.
You must know that the Sino-British negotiations have ended and the return in 1997 has been confirmed. The mainland hopes for a smooth transition in Hong Kong more than the British side, so it is not impossible to make arrangements in advance.
The more Zhou Yutong and his group of wealthy Chinese people thought about it, the more they believed this was possible. Older people are more conceited and stubborn, and they won't change their minds easily once they've made up their minds.
They thought that Chen Xia and Chen Shuqin were just agents, so there were some things they had to be aware of, so he decided to continue testing them.
Hong Kong's pillar industries are finance and real estate. Finance is beyond the reach of ordinary people, while real estate is firmly controlled by the top ten richest people. They don't want any outside troublemakers to come in and take a piece of the pie.
Especially when it comes to state capital, which is a big shark, will they have any chance of survival if they come in?
"Ah Qin, since your eldest nephew is so capable, would you like to get into the real estate industry? There's a piece of land up for auction in Kwun Tong soon. Are you interested?"
Chen Shuqin was confused and had a lot of questions in her mind. How could she imagine what this old fox in front of her was thinking?
"Uncle Zhou, are you kidding me? How could we possibly enter the real estate industry? But my eldest nephew allowed me to buy a lot of properties in Hong Kong. He joked that he, a real estate speculator, was a great hero who took over for the country."
Zhou Yutong was silent, his mind was constantly calculating, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
First, he confirmed that Chen Shuqin and her nephew behind her did have official backgrounds, otherwise how could they say things like "taking over for the country"?
You have to know that Hong Kong was still under the shadow of the economic crisis at that time. From 1982 to 1985, real estate prices continued to fall, with the highest drop of 60%.
At this critical juncture, Pumpkin Vine is willing to purchase a large number of properties. This shows that the mainland officials are willing to maintain the prosperity of Hong Kong's real estate industry and also recognize the monopoly of the top ten richest people in Hong Kong's real estate industry.
Second, he also confirmed that mainland capital would not actually enter the real estate industry.
Instead, he entered the pharmaceutical industry, which is not valued in Hong Kong. This sector is too unpopular, and none of the top ten richest families have a pharmaceutical sector.
This also means that the mainland does not want to have a conflict of interest with the Hong Kong tycoons. Maybe it is to win over the hearts of the people in order to make a smooth return in 1997?
In any case, this is an excellent signal that allows these old guys to relax and not be afraid that one day the mainland will suddenly say that state capital will also bid for land and build houses.
Then what's the point of them? They might as well sell their properties and shares as soon as possible and immigrate abroad.
Zhou Yutong heard the good news he wanted to hear the most, and he was in a very good mood. He smiled and started chatting with Chen Shuqin.
Chen Shuqin was puzzled when she saw the old man, who had been silent just now, suddenly became cheerful again, but it was a good thing after all that the old man was in a good mood.
With Zhou Yutong's arrival, some of the top ten richest people came to Margaret Hospital one after another to treat their stomach problems.
A group of old guys recuperated in the ward every day, played mahjong, and exchanged some business information from time to time.
Especially when Zhou Yutong quietly told these old guys the results of his experiments, everyone felt relieved, their appetites improved, and they cooperated with the treatment.
Of course, the effect of quadruple therapy is better.
Even the big boss of Hengji Real Estate, who was in his 60s, asked the hospital to prepare some blue pills for him, saying that he wanted to go back and try them. He was laughed at by a group of old friends for a long time.
A week later, these most powerful Chinese representatives in Hong Kong, this group of old men who truly ruled Hong Kong, were discharged from the hospital one after another, leaving behind checks that were nominally sponsoring the Helicobacter pylori research laboratory.
The total amount reached a staggering 500 million...
