Lin Tianhua secretly praised Lin Sanqi's ambitious goal, but also pointed out the problem:
"Qizai is very determined and has good goals, but we are currently lacking professional doctors. Since you want to establish Lingnan Hall as the Mayo Clinic of Traditional Chinese Medicine, you need the best Chinese medicine practitioners. You can't let mediocre doctors ruin the reputation."
There are ordinary Chinese medicine practitioners everywhere, but famous doctors are hard to find. A hospital's greatest asset is not the building or the various machines, but its people. Our current technical capabilities are still not up to par.
Lin Sanqi nodded:
"This is indeed a problem. For now, we can poach talents from the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Huadu Medical University and recruit their best professors and Chinese medicine practitioners, but the most important thing is to recruit people from all over the country, and recruit the best Chinese medicine practitioners.
"Uncle Shi, how to recruit doctors is a matter that I leave to you, the general manager. Lingnan Hall has no merit or ability, so we can only throw money at them until those nationally renowned Chinese medicine doctors are interested. Even if the old men are not interested, I don't believe their children won't be!"
Lin Musen and Lin Tianhua both laughed when they heard this.
At least so far, among all the traditional Chinese medicine hospitals and clinics in the country, none has a higher income than Lingnan Hall.
The highest salary you can get is over 8 million, which is more than 1 million in US dollars. This is an income that ordinary corporate executives cannot get. It is definitely a world-class salary.
Everyone continued to walk in the hospital as if they already owned the place.
Lin Sanqi was still introducing as he walked:
"And Dad, Uncle Shi, look at those two buildings in the back. I plan to develop this into an experimental area. If the hospital acquisition is completed, I will fully cooperate with the Huadu Medical University and the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine to begin modernizing Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Nowadays, our traditional Chinese medicine is mostly taken in the form of decoction, tea, pills, etc. Although this method is simple and direct, the drug efficiency is low and it is difficult to ensure the complete release of the active ingredients.
I plan to use modern pharmaceutical technology, just like Professor Tu Youyou, to extract the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine and then make them into medicines. In the future, these medicines can be sold both domestically and internationally, which will definitely be a huge asset."
Lin Tianhua was thinking as he walked:
"Isn't the risk of doing this too great? Modernizing traditional Chinese medicine has been discussed before, but why is it so much talk and little action?
Large Chinese medicine companies such as Yunnan Baiyao, Yangtze River Pharmaceutical, Yiling Pharmaceutical, and Tianlishi are all clamoring to revitalize traditional Chinese medicine, but if you look at the proportion of their annual R&D investment, it is pitifully small.
"You want to modernize traditional Chinese medicine, which is a national project. It's questionable whether we, a small team like Lingnan Hall, have the ability and funds to complete such a huge project."
Yin Lianyi would never contradict her elders.
She has reached a consensus with Lin Sanqi, which is to maintain the bottom line of 5 billion US dollars. 5 billion US dollars is enough for their small family to live a prosperous life in the future.
As for the remaining money, Lin Sanqi can use it as he pleases.
Judging from Lingnantang Company's current sales of ginseng and jade, it is no problem for it to make 2 to 3 billion US dollars a year. In addition, there are thousands of antiques in the warehouse. In Yin Lianyi's opinion, it is definitely enough to keep her boyfriend busy.
In fact, she had overlooked one thing: Lingnantang Chinese Medicine Clinic would also be a cash cow in the future.
Now that Southern Pharmaceutical Factory has obtained a license, it will be able to produce traditional Chinese medicines made from precious medicinal materials such as musk and bezoar, which will be another cash cow.
For example, Lingnan Tang brand Angong Niuhuang Wan costs 50,000 yuan per pill, and they are currently in short supply. What is the cost of this? Almost nothing, all brought from another time and space.
After the southern pharmaceutical factories start large-scale production, the market size of these Chinese patent medicines will be at least over 10 billion yuan.
If the cooperation between Lin Sanqi and the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine is successful and they develop multiple effective medicines containing Chinese herbal ingredients, the scale will be even more immeasurable.
So now others are worried about not having enough money, but Lin Sanqi is worried about what to do if he has too much money?
After all, in this world, whether at home or abroad, having too much money often does not lead to wealth, but to imprisonment or death.
"Uncle Shi, don't worry. I'm not planning on becoming a fat man all at once. Others are looking for a needle in a haystack when developing drugs. I'm targeting a specific Chinese herbal medicine or a Chinese medicine formula for my research.
I've set the direction, so the R&D investment won't be too large. The key is that our domestic talent is cheap. Do you know how much the Chinese Medicine College's annual research funding is? 10 million yuan.
I'll give them 1 billion yuan, and these professors will work like crazy on projects and research topics, so they won't have to worry about money. If this collaboration fails and no patented drug is produced, then I can just cut my losses and stop investing.
Lin Musen interrupted at this time:
"Then how much are you prepared to invest in the modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine?"
Lin Sanqi waved his hand with great pride and said:
“The cooperation with the Chinese Medical College was said to be worth $500 million, but the actual amount received in the first phase was $200 million.
In addition, our hospital needs to be renovated. The more luxurious and extravagant the better, and all the furniture must be made of rosewood.
You should also prepare to purchase the most advanced medical equipment, such as MR, CT, automatic identification instruments, large-scale biochemical automatic analyzers, fully automatic immunoassay analyzers and other clinical diagnostic equipment.
This total is estimated to cost several hundred million.”
Lin Musen was a little puzzled:
"We're a traditional Chinese medicine clinic. We focus on observation, listening, questioning, and palpation. Why do you need so much medical equipment? Isn't the current model of traditional Chinese medicine clinics just fine?"
Lin Sanqi said speechlessly:
"Dad, Chinese medicine needs to improve too. We need to base our diagnosis on evidence. For example, if you have chest pain, you can't just dismiss it as 'chest pain' in Chinese medicine. That's the way it will go.
Who knows if your chest pain is caused by angina, myocardial infarction, pericarditis, tracheitis, pneumonia, lung cancer? Or it could be muscle strain, pulmonary embolism, acute coronary syndrome, etc.
We need to find out the specific cause and then treat it with Chinese medicine. This is what modern Chinese medicine should do. Dad, your ideas and concepts must keep pace with the times."
Lin Musen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry:
"Well, your revolution has come to my head. You have to understand that your father only has a rural doctor's license. It's already a borderline for him to see patients at Lingnantang Chinese Medicine Clinic. I can't understand the CT scans and blood test reports you mentioned."
Lin Sanqi thought so too. Retired professors from the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine could certainly understand Western medical examination forms, but it would be difficult for him to understand someone of his father's level.
Although Lingnan Hall was inherited from his ancestors, Lin Musen himself had never attended a regular college or university and lacked the knowledge that the academic school had.
"Dad, this is easy. Since Lingnan Hall is planning to expand, we not only want to recruit experienced Chinese medicine practitioners and professors, but we can also become a practice hospital for Chinese medicine colleges. Then we can arrange a few female college students to be your assistants. Hehe, it hurts!!!"
Wang Wenjuan suddenly twisted her son's ear:
"You poor bastard, are you planning to find a stepmother? I always knew that men would turn bad when they have money, humph."
Hahahaha~~~
Everyone at the scene laughed.
After everyone had dinner together in the evening, Lin Sanqi did not go to get a room with his girlfriend, but traveled to another time and space.
…
…
Winter 1961, staff dormitory area of Dongyue Temple in the capital.
“The food is here~~~”
Lin Sanqi walked into the house with two plates of braised pork with preserved vegetables in his hands. The temperature inside the house was over 20 degrees, which made people feel warm.
At this time, the two small tables on the kang were filled with various dishes, all of which were soft and glutinous dishes suitable for the elderly.
At this time, the door was opened again, and Pan Ye came over with a tin wine jug:
"Masters, the rice wine is already heated. This is the 50-year-old Shaoxing wine that Sanqi brought."
When Mr. Han Bangxu heard this, he waved his hands in delight:
"This is good wine, Xiao Yezi, come on, pour me some wine quickly."
At this time, Lin Sanqi came in again with a large soup bowl:
"Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is here too, Master Han. Although rice wine is delicious, you can't drink too much."
Old Man Han looked at Old Man Ren Yingqiu, who was lying on the kang with a smile on his face, and said:
"Drink today and worry about tomorrow. Look at Old Man Ren. He studied medicine hard as a child, and finally achieved success and became famous. He enjoyed a few years of happiness, but in the end, he still has to suffer when his life is over, and even his children are not around." (End of this chapter)
