Chapter 411 The Arena
"Don't touch me!"
Suddenly, a furious shout rang out from not far away.
The sound was quite loud, and everyone in the lobby looked in the direction of the sound, including Jiang Ning.
Not far away, a conflict broke out between a Chinese doctor and a doctor from abroad.
The Chinese doctor was pushed to the ground.
The Chinese doctor who had been pushed to the ground got up and pointed at the foreign doctor, saying, "What do you mean? I was communicating with you, why did you push me?"
The foreigner, speaking fluent English and with an extremely arrogant tone, said, "I'm pushing you. You can't even treat such a simple illness? I really overestimate you Chinese people."
His words made those present who understood English turn pale.
As for those who didn't understand, seeing everyone's pale faces, they asked around and found out what the foreigner had said.
His face immediately turned ugly.
If these foreigners look down on Chinese doctors so much, why do they even come to China?
“This exchange meeting is really boring.” The foreign doctor said, but suddenly turned and walked towards Jiang Ning. His attitude was obviously much better. “Dr. Jiang, I’ve heard so much about you.”
The other person spoke in English, but Jiang Ning replied in Mandarin, "Since you look down on doctors from China, why have you heard so much about me?"
Jiang Ning recalled what Dean Kong had told her before.
This group of foreign doctors came to China, probably specifically for her.
Sure enough, the group didn't keep up the act for long. Once they started talking to her, their true intentions were revealed: "After all, Dr. Jiang has developed an anti-inflammatory drug with better efficacy. Of course, you can't be compared to other doctors."
"I came to China this time to humbly learn from Dr. Jiang how this anti-inflammatory drug was developed."
That's quite a big face.
Jiang Ning said calmly, "Our doctors in China are all equally skilled, and each of them has their own area of expertise. It just so happens that they think you are only good at a certain area, so they humbly asked for your advice. But how did you treat this doctor?"
One spoke English and the other spoke Mandarin, yet they communicated without difficulty.
Jiang Ning could tell that the foreign doctor she was talking to spoke Mandarin, but he still insisted on speaking in English.
They didn't show any willingness to learn at all.
The foreign man said to Jiang Ning, "Dr. Jiang, are you angry? We've treated you with great courtesy, why are you getting angry over someone else?"
Jiang Ning said, "Treat them with courtesy? Since you've come to China, you should treat all doctors in China with courtesy. Apologize to the doctor you pushed earlier, and then I can consider your request to humbly learn from them."
Jiang Ning's words made Dean Kong, who was not far away, frown.
How could such a precious prescription be discussed like this!
He was about to remind Jiang Ning when the director of the general hospital stopped him.
"Dr. Jiang should know what to do. Let's wait and see."
Her words clearly put the foreign doctor in an awkward position.
Make him apologize to a Chinese doctor.
That's impossible.
But when he thought about the purpose of his visit, he still managed to force a stiff smile at the doctor he had just pushed.
"Sorry."
This apology lacked sincerity.
After apologizing, he looked at Jiang Ning and asked, "Dr. Jiang, is this alright?"
Jiang Ning picked at her ear. "They won't understand your apology. Why don't you say it again in Mandarin? Maybe then the discussion will be successful."
Upon hearing this, the other party was taken aback.
He didn't expect Jiang Ning to be so greedy.
In the international medical field, no one had ever treated him like this before. He was instantly furious. "Dr. Jiang, I've already apologized. Aren't you pushing your luck?"
Jiang Ning was too lazy to argue with him. Since the other party had already made his intentions clear, she said, "Your humble request to learn is just talk. If you're after my anti-inflammatory prescription, just say so. Don't play these pretentious games."
Jiang Ning's words were too blunt, which caught the foreigners off guard.
The development of new anti-inflammatory drugs has sparked interest in various countries.
However, Jiang Ning was so well protected in China that they had no chance at all.
Seeing that Jiang Ning was being straightforward, he stopped pretending and said, "Since Dr. Jiang is so agreeable, how about we have a competition?"
This is called "fighting in a ring" abroad, and "doctor-versus-doctor" in traditional Chinese medicine.
Jiang Ning curled her lips into a smile. "A contest is fine, but there needs to be a prize."
"What kind of prize does Dr. Jiang want?"
Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, "Fifty anesthetics, fifty ultrasound machines, fifty CT scanners, and fifty MRI machines."
After she finished speaking, the hall fell silent.
These are all new medical instruments that have been developed recently abroad.
In particular, the nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine has only been developed abroad a few years ago, and there are not many in China.
China is indeed still somewhat lacking in the research of medical instruments.
Many hospital directors present at the event would have to go to great lengths to acquire even one of these instruments.
But Jiang Ning asked for so many units as soon as she opened her mouth.
Jiang Ning's request even left the other party bewildered.
They had never seen a woman ask for such an exorbitant amount.
However, these are nothing compared to the value of anti-inflammatory drugs.
Moreover, they are exchanging goods through a contest, and with their medical skills, they may not necessarily lose.
If they win, they can get the prescription for the anti-inflammatory drug without paying a penny.
Jiang Ning continued, "This is the prize I want. If you agree, we'll draw up a contract."
The foreigner thought for a while, then discussed it with his companion for a few more minutes. He then looked at Jiang Ning and said, "Dr. Jiang, I agree to the prize you asked for, but this contract is unnecessary, with so many people here."
“It’s necessary to draw up a contract.” A smile flashed across Jiang Ning’s eyes. “Let’s ask someone from the embassy to come over and draw up the contract in person.”
This was an exchange meeting between foreign and Chinese doctors, and people from embassies that have diplomatic relations with China were also present.
When the embassy staff came over, Jiang Ning dictated a contract to them.
The other party listened to Jiang Ning dictate the drafted contract and said with admiration, "I didn't expect Dr. Jiang to be so meticulous in drafting contracts."
Jiang Ning smiled without saying a word.
This contract must be detailed to prevent anyone from denying it later.
