When Hong Kong people open a business, they particularly like to engage in superstitious activities. A group of executives in suits hold incense and worship under the guidance of a Taoist priest, and they also invite a lion dance team to cheer them on.
However, the memorial ceremony for Lingnan Hospital had been completed three days ago, so the official opening today was mainly a lion dance performance with loud gongs and drums, which was very lively.
In addition, the hostess of the opening ceremony was Lin Dai, the most famous movie star in Hong Kong at that time.
From Lin Sanqi's perspective, Lin Dai was at most very elegant, but she was definitely not beautiful, and was not at all comparable to Lin Sanqi's childhood goddess, Li Lizhen.
However, the aesthetic standards of the times have changed, and Hong Kong people nowadays are attracted by this kind of appearance.
Look, when Lin Dai first introduced the guests, there was a burst of applause from the audience.
Hong Kong people in the 1960s also chased stars.
Only Lin Sanqi knew that this stunning female star would commit suicide next year by taking large amounts of sleeping pills and inhaling gas because of her husband's betrayal.
Like Maggie Cheung, she is hopelessly in love.
Director Elliot, Lin Kucan, and his son Lin Sanqi stood on the stage. Under the flash lights of reporters, they smiled and cut the red ribbon, marking the official opening of Lingnan Hospital.
Lin Sanqi was a little worried. The advertisement was out, and there were at least a few thousand citizens coming to join in the fun today, so the traffic was definitely enough.
However, whether the traffic can be converted into real patients and cash is not certain.
Just like in another era, a celebrity promoted products and the number of people online during the live broadcast exceeded 10,000. The celebrity received 5 million in appearance fee alone.
After the final calculation, including the returns, the actual transaction amount was only tens of thousands. The merchant was so angry that he asked the celebrity for a refund.
Traffic is meaningless if it cannot be monetized.
As soon as the hospital gate opened, a large group of people rushed to the outpatient building.
Lin Sanqi looked at the crowd nervously, wondering whether there were more people there to watch the fun or more patients who actually came to see the doctor.
The crowd quickly split into two parts, one part consisting of several hundred people quickly ran towards the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Lin Sanqi thought that Lingnantang Chinese Medicine Clinic and Pharmacy were already famous in Temple Street and had a mass base, so he had no worries about this business.
So Lin Sanqi turned his attention to the Western Medicine Department.
At this moment, a pleasant female voice suddenly sounded beside him:
"Boss Lin, excuse me."
Lin Sanqi turned around and saw that it was the beautiful Lin Dailin, so he joked:
"Ms. Lin, we were relatives five hundred years ago. You don't have to be so polite. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Entertainment stars all have a certain charm about them. Lin Dai also smiled with her eyebrows curved:
"Boss Lin, here's the thing. I saw an ad in the newspaper saying you have a newly invented antipyretic and antibacterial drug. I'd like to ask if I can jump the queue and buy these two drugs first?"
Lin Sanqi blinked and asked:
"Miss Lin, is someone in your family sick? Don't worry, you are our distinguished guest, just bring them in, no need to queue."
When Lin Dai said this, she finally dropped her usual pretense of nobility and said with a headache:
"My son is one year old. He started having a high fever three days ago. We've been to several hospitals, but there's been no improvement. If I hadn't been asking for medicine today, I wouldn't be here for this ribbon-cutting ceremony."
Lin Sanqi thought that this was right. If her son was sick and the mother only cared about dressing up beautifully and walking around, then she would be an unqualified mother.
If Lin Dai was really such a heartless and ungrateful person, she would not have committed suicide because of love.
"Ms. Lin, your son went to another hospital for treatment. What did the doctor say about the cause of his illness? Or did they do a blood test?"
Lin Dai was obviously prepared and quickly took out several test reports from her handbag.
Lin Sanqi took it and took a look. The white blood cell and neutrophil counts were very high, which clearly indicated inflammation. So he asked:
"Are your tonsils festering? The inflammation index for a common cold wouldn't be this high."
When Lin Dai heard this, she was immediately convinced, knowing that the young boss in front of her was truly capable:
"Yes, yes, Boss Lin, the doctor said my tonsils are inflamed and there are white spots on them. You are truly amazing."
Lin Sanqi smiled and made a gesture of invitation:
"Then Miss Lin, please come this way. I'll personally get you some medicine. Your flatulence is quite severe and requires the most advanced antibiotics to treat it."
Lin Sanqi was a little worried about the business of the Western Medicine Department, so he did not go through the staff passage, but prepared to go through the hospital gate to the pharmacy.
As soon as he entered the hall, Lin Sanqi found that there were already five long queues for registration, and the scene was as lively as a vegetable market.
Lin Dai smiled and complimented:
"Boss Lin, this is the first time I've seen so many people in a hospital. It looks like Lingnan Hospital is going to be very prosperous."
The hospitals that rich people go to are often private high-end hospitals, which are naturally quiet. You won't see scenes like those at a train station during the Spring Festival travel rush.
Seeing so many patients, Lin Sanqi felt relieved, knowing that his first step should have been successful and the advertising for this month was not in vain.
"Haha, Miss Lin, you can't wish for a prosperous business in the hospital. If the patients hear it, you will definitely be scolded."
Lin Dai covered her mouth and smiled, her charming demeanor clearly on display, which stunned the male patients who had been peeking at her not far away.
The two walked side by side to the pharmacy, and Lin Sanqi took a box of Bulofen oral liquid and a box of Cefuroxime granules.
"Ms. Lin, give me 3ml of this red liquid at a time, every six hours. This cephalosporin is an antibiotic, one packet at a time, twice a day. Don't worry, it will definitely work within three days."
Whether it is ibuprofen or cefuroxime, they were actually brought by Lin Sanqi from another time and space, with only the outer packaging changed.
Anyone who knows the medicine is definitely not cheap just by looking at the exquisite packaging and the rare plastic bottle.
Lin Dai was very grateful and took out her small wallet and said:
"Boss Lin, how much is it in total?"
Lin Sanqi waved his hand and said, "Ms. Lin, I can't thank you enough for coming to help host the opening ceremony. How can I accept money?"
A few dozen yuan is a huge sum of money for ordinary people, but it is a drop in the bucket for movie stars and no one cares about it.
"Thank you so much, Boss Lin. When my son's fever subsides, I will definitely bring him to visit and thank you."
Lin Sanqi hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't bear to interfere with the fate of others, so he warned:
"Ms. Lin, I come from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and can also tell fortunes. If you believe me, you'll have a disaster next July. If you make it through, the storm will pass, but if you don't, I'm afraid..."
So no matter what, think about your son before you do anything. Excuse me, you are young, beautiful, and well-off. You deserve a better life. There is no need to choose a path of no return for a man. Remember this.
When Lin Dai heard this, she was suddenly shocked.
Family members know their own affairs. Although she seems to be doing well on the surface, her husband is a playboy who spends all day looking for other women outside. She is really distressed about this.
But this is a family scandal that Lin Dai has never told anyone about, but now it has been discovered by this young boss?
Lin Dai was a woman who cared a lot about her reputation, otherwise she would not have left a note before her death, telling her husband:
"If you really want to save me, please don't send me to a public hospital. Just find a private doctor quietly. Thank you!"
So she naturally would not admit it in front of her. She just smiled to cover up her embarrassment and hurried away.
Lin Sanqi looked at the beauty's back and thought that it was true that beauty was only a passing fancy, and the good girl preferred the little yellow-haired boy.
From now on, whenever his daughter Xiao Susu appears, no other little yellow-haired boy can appear within a radius of ten miles.
At this time, in the internal medicine clinic.
Li Xinghuan was holding an X-ray film and carefully studying it. Finally, he put the film down and said to the patient:
"You have a large inflammation in your right lung, and coupled with your fever and cough, this is clearly pneumonia. You need antibiotic treatment. Didn't the doctor at Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital tell you that?"
The patient sighed weakly and said:
“It was the doctor at Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital who told me to come to Lingnan Hospital. He said they had given me penicillin for five days, but the inflammation hadn’t subsided and my temperature hadn’t gone down. He suggested I try a different antibiotic.
The doctor at Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital also said that your newly opened Lingnan Hospital is the only one in Hong Kong that has the newly launched antibiotics, and they are useless even in the United States.
Doctor, please save me. I have plenty of money, so feel free to give me any good medicine I can get."
Would the doctors at Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital be so kind as to refer patients to other hospitals?
In fact, it is the money that is at work here. (End of this chapter)
