Liu Mingchuan is a controversial figure, but doctors treat patients regardless of their condition; as long as a patient needs treatment, they will do everything in their power to help.
Moreover, Liu Mingchuan had received instructions from higher-ups, so Dr. Cao, the attending physician, dared not neglect the matter and urgently formulated a treatment plan, scheduling the surgery for Monday morning.
Chu Yu had classes on Monday, and knowing that Liu Mingchuan would get better, she wasn't particularly worried. After finishing her classes, it was already past three o'clock. Chu Yu went home, cooked some porridge, and brought a few boiled eggs, some leftover canned food, and a few cans of milk powder. By the time she arrived at the hospital, it was already past five o'clock.
Liu Mingchuan was resting with his eyes closed, while Wen Pei watched from the side.
"Mr. Liu, he..."
"She was wheeled out of the operating room this afternoon. The pain started after the anesthesia wore off, and she's enduring it now."
"When did the doctor say I can start eating?"
"It's probably not going to happen today."
Chu Yu put the porridge and her belongings in the cabinet next to her. Liu Mingchuan was staying in a three-person ward, but the doctor did not assign patients to the other two beds, so it was essentially a single room for him.
"The room was quite quiet."
Liu Mingchuan snorted through his nose when he mentioned the commotion, "You have connections backing you up, arranging a ward is nothing."
Chu Yu raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, it's just because someone has such a bad reputation, they're afraid that if they stay in a crowded ward, someone will throw eggs at them!"
This was taboo, but Chu Yu said it with a touch of playfulness and teasing, making even Wen Pei laugh.
Liu Mingchuan was furious and almost jumped off the bed. "I...I...I'm not staying here anymore. Quickly call the doctor to put my tumor back in, and I'll be discharged right now. I will never accept any favors from the capitalists."
"Alright, why are you being so childish?" Wenpei couldn't help but laugh as she covered him with the blanket. "Senior brother, stop fooling around and lie down to rest and recover."
Liu Mingchuan was unhappy. "Why don't you say she's childish? She was the one who teased me first."
“She’s just a child, isn’t she? You’re so old, why are you arguing with a child…”
Even Wenpei, her junior, couldn't help but want to complain.
Liu Mingchuan fell silent, closing his eyes and humming softly, like an angry old ox.
Chu Yu smiled and, seeing that he was doing well, went to the payment counter to check his medical balance. Because he had used some imported drugs and had invited a specialist for a consultation, his balance was not much.
Chu Yu paid the fees, and Liu Mingchuan will probably need to rest for more than half a month. After that, he should not overexert himself.
Chu Yu wanted to find a plot of land to build a factory for her cosmetics business. Undoubtedly, Beijing wouldn't allow many factories to be established in the future. To solve the problem once and for all, she would have to set up the factory in another city. However, transportation was inconvenient, and telephones weren't widespread. For ease of communication, Beijing remained the most suitable location.
Mi Fei rushed out of Donglin Home Appliance City, saying in a hurry:
"Sister-in-law, you were looking for me?"
Chu Yu smiled. Mi Fei had been single since breaking up with He Xinyan. He wasn't a simp anymore, and he looked quite energetic.
Chu Yu mentioned that she wanted to find land, and Mi Fei's second uncle happened to be in charge of this area. These days, as long as the scale of investment attraction is reached, there is a great deal of priority in terms of land use.
“I’m thinking that if the policy is right, I could register my company in the port city.”
"Okay, I'll ask for you."
Mi Fei quickly replied, "My second uncle said that the current policy is still 'foreign investment-oriented,' and local governments will give special preferential treatment to companies from Hong Kong, Taiwan, or foreign investment with more than 5 million US dollars. There are preferential policies that are even more favorable than those for domestic companies in terms of site usage fees, credit funds, and corporate income tax."
It's not that Chu Yu wanted to take advantage of others, but rather that the entire Chinese market is currently obsessed with foreign things.
Foreign goods always sell well, foreign things are always more appealing, and the grass is always greener on the other side.
Chu Yu wanted to establish a company in Gangcheng because he felt that Gangcheng belonged to our country and would eventually return to China. He believed the company's taxes would go to our country, not benefit foreigners. Secondly, Gangcheng brands, like foreign brands, held a positive image in the minds of Chinese people, offering tangible benefits.
At the current exchange rate, $5 million would require an investment of approximately 17 million. Investing in a cosmetics factory requires land and a laboratory, as well as the import of advanced raw materials from abroad. In addition, the cost of building the factory is considerable.
The factory buildings and facilities are visible, but the money invested in the laboratories is invisible.
Many major cosmetic brands spend billions of RMB on research and development every year; without research and development, it is impossible for a brand to remain invincible.
Chu Yu hoped that after spending 17 million, she would hear a sound.
The biggest problem right now is...
She has no money.
Admittedly, Mandarin and Yorkham earn good incomes, bringing in tens of thousands of dollars in revenue for her every day. However, her total net worth is less than five million. Even with the investments from Shulan and Shen Zhuyu, and the addition of a few foolish and wealthy individuals, it's still far from seventeen million.
Mi Fei seemed to sense her concerns and quickly said, "The funds don't need to be in one go. We can set a timeframe and have them arrive in several batches. You can receive a portion first, and then fill the gap later when you make a profit."
Chu Yu nodded. Five million was all she had left. Originally, she wouldn't have dared to take the risk, but then she met Liu Mingchuan.
Liu Mingchuan's good fortune will surely bring unique opportunities to her cosmetics company.
Chu Yu was particularly moved.
"I need to discuss this with the others."
Mi Fei was even more tempted than her. He didn't have a girlfriend, and he didn't spend his money; he saved it all in the bank.
However, bank interest rates are high these days. Mi Fei found someone who could give him an interest rate of about 10%. With several million in savings, he could earn tens of thousands a month. He doesn't even spend 20 yuan a day. If he had that much money, he really wouldn't know how to spend it.
