Chapter 787: Difficulty in Selecting a Successor



As soon as Chen Defa entered the emergency room and saw Xu Longfeng lying on the hospital bed, he thought of the expressions of several unfilial sons in the ward, and he couldn't stop crying.

He hurried forward, held Xu Longfeng's hand, and called softly:

"Brother Xu, I'm Ah Fa. I'm here. You have to hold on. Longfeng Company can't do without you."

The monitor kept beeping.

Hearing Chen Defa's voice, Xu Longfeng also gently shook his hand and said with his eyes closed:

"Ah Fa, I heard it all. I heard the three of them fighting, didn't I? I wasn't even dead yet, and they started fighting over the family property. I failed in educating my children. I'm not as good as you. You have a good daughter and a great grandson."

"Brother Xu, don't say that. We had a hard time starting our business back then, and we didn't have time to discipline our children. This isn't your fault. You've built such a big business, and you're very successful, more successful than any of us older brothers."

"Ah Fa, no one knows a son better than his father. If I die and hand over Longfeng Pharmacy to these people, they won't be able to protect such a large fortune with their ability. We have no one to rely on in Hong Kong, how can they fight against those old foxes?"

As soon as Xu Longfeng said this, Chen Defa nodded in agreement.

The business world is like a battlefield. Not only do you need ability, but you also need courage and perseverance.

The Xu family has three sons. The eldest is stupid, the second is treacherous and cunning, and the third is greedy. The shortcomings of the three are very obvious.

This is also the reason why Xu Longfeng has been unable to decide on a successor. After so many years of observation, he knows that none of his three sons are cut out for business.

Even the master of the status quo can't do it.

Hong Kong is a capitalist society, and Longfeng Pharmacy is a listed company. If the chairman is a fool, then sooner or later the company will be shorted.

After the founder passed away, the successor was kicked out of the board of directors, and the company was taken over by outsiders. News of this happening is everywhere in Hong Kong and is very cruel.

With Chen Shuqin's comfort, Mrs. Xu's emotions gradually stabilized.

Chen Xia was discussing the condition with Zhu Wenhao and other cardiologists.

"What? Chairman Xu is not suitable for heart bypass surgery or stent placement?"

"Yes, Boss, look at these medical records. Here, and here, they all record his condition. We have no other options now. We can only adopt conservative treatment and try to dissolve the blood clots."

According to the angiography report from a few months ago, the degree of coronary artery stenosis in Xu Sheng was already 90%. Now that he has directly developed a myocardial infarction, I don't think the effect of thrombolytic therapy will be particularly good."

Chen Xia nodded. "Surgery is the best option in this situation. By the way, what's the reason why a stent isn't suitable?"

Zhu Wenhao said helplessly:

"You may not believe this, but it's because of an allergy. Xu Sheng's blood vessels are allergic to metal, but all the stents on the market today are made of metal, so stenting is ruled out as a treatment option."

Chen Xia suddenly put his chin in his hand and thought: "I'm allergic to metal stents, so why don't we use non-metallic stents?"

"Boss, I've never heard of non-metallic brackets. Where can I buy them now? Even if they're available overseas, I'm afraid it's too late to buy them now."

Chen Xia snapped his fingers and said, "I'll find a way to make a non-metallic bracket. The company's laboratory has the latest brackets."

Huh? ~~~~

The cardiologists present all wondered, are there really non-metallic heart stents?

Zhu Wenhao was a little worried: "Boss, this is not a joke. Plastic stents are not suitable. They can easily cause thrombosis."

Chen Xia rolled his eyes at him. "Do you think our company's internal laboratory is so backward? Wait, I'll get it right away. Don't ask, this is top secret research."

Zhu Wenhao and several cardiologists immediately stopped asking questions.

It is known to everyone that Pumpkin Vine Pharmaceuticals has a mysterious laboratory.

But this laboratory has always been kept top secret. Outsiders have only heard of it, but no one has ever been inside to visit. All they know is that one drug after another is being invented.

And from previous semi-public information, it seems that they are indeed researching medical devices.

Ever since Chen Xia and Li Jun had a falling out, he immediately moved the "medical device laboratory" in Yuezhou to Hong Kong to make it easier for Chen Shuqin to control it.

If this were to stay in Yuezhou, the invention would benefit Yuezhou People's Hospital.

Chen Xia is already building his own hospital and will only take care of the hospital's affairs in the future. He never wants to experience the kind of thing where he spends money and effort but still gets stabbed in the back.

So when Chen Xia said that he had non-metallic brackets in his laboratory, no one doubted it.

Although Chen Xia was not a cardiologist in his previous life, he had a good friend in the cardiology department. The two often played together and had some understanding of cardiology.

At that time, the cardiologist mentioned a non-metallic stent and boasted about how advanced it was and how it could degrade automatically.

Chen Xia heard it at that time, and now he suddenly had an idea and decided to go to the Space Hospital to look for it.

When Chen Shuqin heard that her nephew had a solution, she was very happy and immediately ran over to whisper in Xu Longfeng's ear:

"Uncle Xu, hold on. Our company has a non-metallic stent that we can get right now. So you must remain calm and cooperate with the doctor's treatment."

When Xu Longfeng heard this, the tachycardia alarm on the monitor sounded again.

Chen Shuqin was confused and frightened and didn't know what to do.

Chen Defa glared at his daughter and quickly comforted her:

"Don't worry, don't worry. This hospital is mine, and the laboratory is mine, too. I'm here to make sure you get the best medicine and I'll definitely cure you."

Mrs. Xu was also very excited, and she clasped her hands together and said, "Ancestors, please bless me, Bodhisattva, please bless me, and cure my old man's illness."

More than half an hour later, Chen Xia came running over, panting, with a box in his hand.

Zhu Wenhao had already prepared for the interventional surgery. When he saw the boss coming, he immediately shouted excitedly:

"Boss, have you got the non-metallic bracket?"

Chen Xia opened the box and showed them a look:

"See? These stents are made of polylactic acid. The drug coating on the outside of the stent releases the drug and can be completely degraded and absorbed by the body within three years after implantation."

The heart experts present stared at this magical stent with disbelief in their eyes.

This is a "fourth-generation stent" in later generations. It was originally invented by Abbott Pharmaceuticals in 2006 and is definitely a revolutionary creation.

Compared with traditional brackets, this has many advantages.

For example, after the stent is completely degraded, the rigidity of the stent on the blood vessel can be released, the lumen area can be increased, and there is no need for lifelong antiplatelet drug use, etc.

Now, Chen Xia has taken over.

Not only the stent can be patented, but the material as well can be patented.

Patents represent green dollars.
