Chapter 805: Cheating into a laboratory(1/2)
Chen Qi is confident in several rare diseases he has discovered.
Didn't you see the Mayo Clinic taking the initiative to go to Vietnam and China to ask for cooperation? This proves that the academic value of these cases is very, very high.
Since you have a gold mine, what else will it take to share if you want to share it.
Mayo paid a complete plant medical center (although it is second-hand equipment) and $15 million, plus "friendship", which is full of sincerity.
So what should I get from Xisenmeikan?
Chen Qi's eyes began to turn black again. Suddenly, when he saw the word "gene" on the test report, a light of inspiration appeared in his mind.
"Mr. Takata, over the years, your company has been very happy in cooperation with our hospital. And you have helped us with discounts for several tests. I keep the friendship between Xisen Meikang in my heart."
East Asians speak like this and like to circle around.
Yuto Takada was not a fool. He knew that the meat show was coming, so he sat up straight.
"Chen Sang, we have always cherished our friendship with the Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and your personal friendship. I believe we will be the best partners."
Chen Qi gritted his teeth, regardless of whether he would be beaten to death, the lion said:
"Mr. Takada, you have also seen that our hospital now has more and more genetic testing businesses, and more rare cases have been found, not only bisexuals and chimera, but also genetic traceability cases, Cranfelt syndrome cases, etc.
These cases have extremely high research value, but countries around the world are studying related cases. Everyone is a competitor. It depends on who can find the cause and publish a paper. Whoever is the final winner is the winner. For the time being, we are a lot ahead of the Chinese Medicine Hospital.
Also, the white three-story building outside the window is the Shengzhi Medical Center that we were opening for trial operation. My goal is to build the largest and world-class Shengzhi Medical Center in China. This requires the support of genetic testing technology and the business will not be bad.
So my idea is that our Yue Chinese Medicine Hospital and your Xisen Meikang Company jointly set up a genetic testing center, which is located in our China, and then our gene databases can be shared. What do you think?"
Yuto Takada was a little stupid, and was a little shocked at Chen Qi's arrogance.
You should know that the genetic testing laboratory is currently an emerging cutting-edge technology in the world, and the equipment is all at a sky-high price.
A complete genetic testing center, all equipment are equipped, as well as computers, high-level laboratories, researcher labor costs, etc., without a $2300 million price, it is impossible to get it.
Good guy, even if China and Japan cooperate, according to policy, Xisen Meikang can only account for 49%, and at least it will require an investment of about 100 million US dollars.
Yuto Takada looked at this simple director's office, without even air conditioning or computers. Can such a "poor" hospital jointly invest 100 million US dollars?
So Yuto Takada was a little unaware of Chen Qi’s proposal:
"Director Chen, you are joking. The investment cost of a genetic testing center is very huge. Not to mention that you have crossed the Chinese medicine hospital, even our Xisen Meikang Company will be unbearable."
Seeing that the fish was not caught, Chen Qi could only continue to fool him:
"Mr. Takata, don't worry about this. Our Yue Chinese Medicine Hospital is not greedy. We can even accept second-hand equipment. Just like our Shengzhi Medical Center, all the equipment used is provided by Mayo for free. Although it is a bit old, it is completely enough."
Yuto Takada thought, if it is okay to provide second-hand goods, then this cooperation seems to be really good.
Machinery and equipment are like mobile phones and cars in later generations, and they lose half of the landing.
If you have been using equipment for several years, in fact, a fresh market like San Francisco, the United States, is not much more expensive. At most, you can get a new machine at about 30% off.
Chen Qi took out another case from his desk.
"Mr. Takada, look, this is a patient we just treated. We found that the crying of this little baby is exactly the same as the kitten's moan, and the child has a special face, similar to a patient with chromosome abnormality in 21.
Now we estimate that it is also a special, rare chromosomal disease, which especially requires genetic testing. If it is finally confirmed that it is another rare disease, then the academic value is immeasurable."
Even in 2023, there were only more than 200 cases of cat meow syndrome found worldwide, which is definitely a rare disease among rare diseases.
For pharmaceutical companies, more than 200 rare cases have no research or commercial value at all.
But for the medical community, there are only more than 200 rare cases in history in the world, which is no less than Mount Everest of medicine. Many doctors and professors want to climb this peak and stand at the peak of medicine to despise their peers.
Sure enough, when Yuto Takada heard that another rare disease was discovered by Yue Chinese Medicine Hospital, his attitude immediately weakened.
I thought to myself, are rare diseases so easy to detect? How many rare diseases have been found in the Chinese Medicine Hospital in recent years? How many papers have been published?
This kind of top paper is read and verified by doctors all over the world. In terms of advertising effect, it is too valuable.
As a large genetic testing company, all equipment of Xisenmeikan has been backed up, and some of them are more than one or two.
Yuto Takada thought about whether he could piece together the equipment needed for a complete genetic laboratory at the lowest cost.
Sampling analyzers, electrophoresis detectors, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR equipment instruments, plasmid separators, gene sequencers, mass spectrometers, micro-dilution analyzers, biological system chips, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, etc.
There are also other related equipment: such as water bath temperature controller, micro weighing formula computer, etc.
Even if you use all second-hand goods, you will not be less than 30 million US dollars if you calculate them all.
US$30 million is not a huge amount for Xisen Meikang and the consortium behind it. Compared with the huge market in China and the huge academic value of Vietnamese Chinese Hospital, this business can be done.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yuto Takada made up his mind:
"Okay, Chen Sang, your proposal is quite operational, but if we can only occupy 49% of the shares, then we can only invest half of the money at most. Can you get the remaining half of the money through the Chinese Medicine Hospital?"
Chen Qi can't get the 15 million US dollars now. The money donated by the wealthy people in Xiangjiang is already used up, and the money from the Mayo research team cannot be misappropriated.
If you don’t have money, it’s a tradition of a certain country. If you don’t have money, you’ll be slutty.
"Mr. Takada, the account is not settled like this. Think about it, if the two companies cooperate, then all of our rare cases will be placed in this testing center. This is an intangible resource. In addition, we can also provide venues, personnel, etc.
The most important thing is that when Mr. Takada works with us, he is interested in the advertising effect. At that time, we can give special thanks to Hissen Mikaya in the papers we publish, and even let you become the third author and the fourth author not be able to do so."
When Yuto Takada heard this, his eyes lit up instantly, thinking that if you say this, I won’t be sleepy.
Generally, commercial institutions spend real money to some scientific research institutions, and finally form papers, at most, there is a thank-you link, and most of the time they cannot get the data or patents they want.
It's like being a sucker.
So ordinary small companies don’t dare to provide any sponsorships, and they can’t even survive, so how can they spend money on others?
But with the right to sign, it is different, which means that the company has changed from a sponsor to a partner, which can share the results.
(Chen Qi: I'm thinking too much about sharing the results. We are not a discipline like engineering or computer science. It can make money if we have patents. It is difficult to apply for patents in medical research. We can get a name, but it is not profitable.)
"Okay, since Chen Sang said that, how can we cooperate?"
"In this way, you Xisenmeikan provides all the equipment and personnel training. We have cases and venues in the Chinese Medicine Hospital and jointly set up a genetic testing center. At that time, we can share results and communicate with each other. What do you think?"
This plan is definitely a loss, and the Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital makes a fortune.
But from the perspective of "famous", Xisen Meikang Company took advantage of the ride-hailing of the Yue Chinese Medicine Hospital. The only uncertainty is whether the Yue Chinese Medicine Hospital can continue to be magical.
Business is risky. Yuto Takada thought for a long time and finally gave the answer the next day:
Can cooperate.
The two sides quickly signed an agreement. Isn’t there a case of meowing syndrome in front of me, which became the first project of cooperation between the two parties.
Japan said it would transport a full set of experimental equipment to Vietnamese Chinese Medicine Hospital as quickly as possible.
After all, second-hand goods do not need to wait for goods. Yuto Takada calls to Japan with one phone call and can be packed and shipped to China immediately.
Chen Qi also has an urgent need because the new building of Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital is preparing to open after the Spring Festival, and now is the last moment for equipment to enter the market.
Now prepare the equipment at one time. One is to brag when opening, and the other is to save time and money from re-arrangement of the decoration team.
The Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital obtained a complete bioengraving medical center from Mayo, and now it has a complete genetic testing center from Japan. This rumor quickly spread to major hospitals across the country, and finally scientific research institutions.
Now that I'm fine, how many deans and directors broke the glass?
While other hospitals or research institutions were still worried about how to buy a machine, the Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital was so rich that it had obtained two complete sets of high-end equipment in one go.
Just like when fighting, other troops were still using Hanyang, and you were already showing off your power with the US-made M16 assault rifle. Can you bear it?
So red eyes appeared one by one.
After all, Yue Chinese Medicine Hospital is just a local hospital. It has insufficient foundation and low level. It suddenly becomes rich and has too many people who are unwilling to accept it.
Just like a child holding a golden doll in his arms, who doesn’t want to rob it?
The new outpatient building of Yue Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, the Gemini Building (Inpatient Department), and the emergency building have been fully completed, and the decoration work has been successfully concluded.
Various medical equipment that Chen Qi had spent more than 30 million US dollars to buy have also entered the market because many of the equipment need to be installed and debugged.
So the People's Hospital was extremely busy these days, with foreign engineers and Chinese engineers coming and going in and out, just like the Canton Fair.
Chen Qi and all the leaders of the hospital team focused on the new building, and the work was a lot of tricks.
Fortunately, the Xinyue Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital building was newly built next to the old hospital, so moving is more convenient because everyone can work in the most advanced and fashionable building of this era, and the medical staff are all excited.
In addition, the mastery is still quite strong these days, and everyone regards the hospital as the leader.
So even without the urging of the leader, many doctors consciously participated in the moving project. When they were fine, they would move the equipment and information in the department to the new hospital bit by bit.
Just like ant moving, it is not as busy as the move at one time. The entire Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital is in order.
Chen Qi also experienced a new hospital relocation in his previous life, and that scene was so exciting.
When he was studying for a doctorate, the provincial hospital moved from the old city to the new city. The poor family still had three kilograms of iron. As an old Grade A hospital, it almost drove the whole city's big trucks.
Some equipment cannot vibrate violently. Many old doctors personally pull the tricycle drivers to pull the cart, carefully walking and slowly taking it to the new hospital, and it depends on walking for more than ten kilometers.
Chen Qi was in hepatobiliary surgery at that time, and he remembered it best.
At that time, the only imported ecmo machine in hepatobiliary surgery was a very precious machine for all practitioners. They had to save their lives at critical moments, but they were also very delicate.
The director of the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery and several deputy directors personally borrowed a tricycle, and then several old directors added Chen Qi and other young doctors. They walked a full 12 kilometers before they were sent to the new hospital.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Moreover, in order to avoid traffic accidents on the road, I also took action when there was no one on the street in the middle of the night.
It wasn't enough to send it to the new hospital. Several directors personally carried it to the department, stored it, and then they were relieved to lock the door. The group of people fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
