"Your stomach cancer is caused by irregular diet." The income from the match factory is not very high, mostly calculated by piece. Looking at the clothes she is wearing, you can tell that her family is in financial difficulty.
It was 1983, and families with some money would dress up their family members; they wouldn't have to dress them in fancy clothes, but they would have given them new clothes.
"In addition, the country has newly released a medicine called Repair Fluid, and there are not many of them in the City West First Hospital." If you want to get treated, you have to seize the opportunity. The Repair Fluid is mainly used to take care of people who have made contributions to the country; the major hospitals do not have much in stock.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhong Yuxiu wrote her a prescription. "You can take this medicine to suppress cancer. Of course, it's only for a short time; it won't suppress it forever. It might stop working one day. When you've made up your mind, you can ask the factory for help, or find a way to get involved in the clinical trials of the repair fluid."
The clinical trials of the repair fluid have not stopped. It is aimed at the general public and various pathogens; all need to be tried. She has not followed up on this aspect and does not know what stage it has reached.
"Thank you, Dr. Zhong. I'll take the medicine first. As long as the pain goes away, I'll be fine."
After hearing what the patient said, Zhong Yuxiu tried to persuade her a few times, but seeing that she was determined to do so, she had to give up. She quickly wrote out a prescription for her, and the herbs used were all cheap and within her affordability.
"Three times a day, one dose can last for three days."
"Doctor Zhong, excuse me, I have another question: How much does a prescription cost?"
Zhong Yuxiu calculated it for her silently, "One dose of medicine costs eighty cents." The herbs used were really cheap.
"Okay, thank you, Dr. Zhong." The patient finally had a smile on his face, and he took the prescription and went out with the dog in his arms.
A dose of medicine costs 80 cents and lasts for three days; it’s less than 27 cents a day.
Zhong Yuxiu was heartbroken after the patient passed away. Because of her family's financial situation, she had previously avoided prescribing expensive medicines. Life was difficult for a poor family, so why would they insist on using expensive herbs when alternatives were available? Therefore, she had always been careful to control the price.
Medicines are prescribed based on the patient's family financial situation. Some people are rich, so they want to use expensive medicinal materials and eat high-end food; some patients are not well-off and try to save as much as possible. The living environment is different, and the life is also different.
In the afternoon, he visited more than ten people one after another. After get off work, Yan Rushan came to pick them up again. After the group got in the car, Yan Rushan looked at his wife beside him with concern.
"Yuxiu, what's wrong? You seem depressed."
He sighed unconsciously, "Today I saw a patient with stomach cancer in the hospital. His family is poor and he probably can't afford the repair fluid. The repair fluid they developed is not very effective. It's only good for minor ailments. But it won't cure serious illnesses in one dose. The patient can't afford it!"
The key is price.
Yan Rushan put his arm around her shoulders and said with a faint smile, "I have enough liquid funds, I can allocate some to help you."
"Forget it." She had considered this before. "I can sponsor one, but not the second. Most of my money goes to a charity company, and the charity work has nothing to do with cancer. You also invest a lot of money every year because of this company. Now you have enough funds for turnover, but you should also reserve more. Don't decide how to spend your money based on what I say."
"It's okay, we have plenty of liquid funds."
Zhong Yuxiu still shook her head. She returned home and called Xi Nian. When he answered, Zhong Yuxiu said, "Comrade Xi Nian, I have a question for you."
"Whatever it is, ask me; I will tell you everything I know."
"Is the research on the repair fluid still going on? Can the efficacy be improved?" It still remains at that level.
Xi Nian was silent for a few breaths before he had to speak, "We are still working on the repair fluid, but its efficacy cannot reach the same level as what you have achieved."
(Fuck dish fuck)
Why is it so useless?
Zhong Yuxiu shook her head helplessly, "Can the price of the repair fluid be lowered?"
"Downward?" Xi Nian asked, "What do you mean?"
"The current price is too high, and the efficacy of the medicine cannot achieve the effect I have made. You know that our country is in a stage of extreme poverty, and many people cannot afford the repair fluid." Although the huge profits from the several patents she provided have maintained the situation, the country needs to develop and needs money everywhere. It cannot be like some countries where citizens can receive subsidies without doing anything.
Xi Nian pondered for a moment and said, "I will report this to the higher-ups."
"Then you can try it. It would be best if you can lower the price. The medicinal materials used in the repair fluid are not all precious. People in our country pay one price for the medicine, and it's another price after export. Wouldn't it be better to make money from others?"
Xi Nian nodded, knowing that something had happened to her, otherwise, she wouldn't have reacted so strongly.
After hanging up the phone, Xi Nian asked someone to investigate where Zhong Yuxiu went today, and the results came out in just half an hour.
"Comrade Xi, Comrade Zhong Yuxiu went to Huazhong University this morning and then went to the hospital."
"I see." Xi Nian could guess without asking; Zhong Yuxiu must have encountered a seriously ill patient in the hospital and couldn't afford to pay. "By the way, could you help me check? Comrade Zhong treated those patients this afternoon. It would be best if we could find out the cause of the disease."
The person who came to report put a list on the ground and said, "It's all here."
"Well done." It's impossible not to admire those who are capable and plan ahead.
After reading it, Xi Nian thought to himself, "As expected," and pointed to the name of the first patient on the case list. "Go contact her and tell her that we need another stomach cancer patient for the clinical trial."
"There's already a patient with stomach cancer. The Medical Research Institute won't agree."
"No matter whether they are suitable or not, the medicine was developed by Comrade Zhong. Is it not okay to have one more stomach cancer patient?" What's wrong with him?
The subordinate thought about it and nodded, "I will arrange it, but will you give someone a handle on you by doing this?"
"We unconditionally complete the things that Comrade Zhong cares about. Is that a handle?" He was just taking care of talents according to the instructions from above.
"You are right. I will contact the person first."
Xi Nian waved his hand and said, "Go ahead. Let me know when you've made your arrangements." This was all he could do now. What Zhong Yuxiu said was not unreasonable. The repair fluid was a bit expensive. It was affordable for well-off families, but unaffordable for poor families.
The problem is that the repair fluid is not as effective as the one made by Zhong Yuxiu herself. Otherwise, at this price, poor families can still afford to buy it once.
The repair solution we launched can’t cure the disease in one go; it relies on a long-term battle. And the most feared thing in a long-term battle is lack of money. How can we fight a long-term battle without money?
Xi Nian rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. Comrade Zhong had already started paying attention to this issue; he still had to report it. After he reported it, he received a reply the next day.
The price can be lowered, just cut in half; it doesn’t matter if you make less profit domestically, you must make enough profit abroad.
Repair fluid is another golden goose that lays eggs after color TVs, range hoods and electric donkeys.
