The curling smoke slowly rose from the burning cigarette butt, Bruce with the cigarette blinked his blue eyes and looked at the teaching building in the distance, at this time the people in the team were scattered and relaxed, and soon saw the figure in the low corridor, he took the cigarette butt into his mouth and took a big puff, threw it on the gravel floor and trampled it with leather shoes with cow tendon soles, and swallowed his saliva and cleared his throat to the flower garden, and soon Carol trotted to his side, took a paper and put it in front of him and said: " After confirming, Zheng Jianguo wants to prepare to go out, and his teacher also wants him to go out, but the possible resistance will come from the other leaders of this school and the leaders of this area-"

"Is this paper really researched by Zheng Jianguo himself, and can it cause such a big sensation as you say?"

Bruce took the paper and flipped through it quickly, Carol shrugged his shoulders and said: "After testing before, it can be confirmed that it is Zheng Jianguo's research, at least he is also the host, the motivation is clear, and the data can still come out of his mouth, considering that his teacher gave up the name of the first author in order to send him out, then Zheng Jianguo can only be, and is the only author of the paper."

As for the helicobacter in the stomach, I also knew about it before I came, and it was not that no one in the world had found bacteria in the stomach before, but the gang of pharmaceutical companies spent money on public relations for the billions of dollars in the interferant market every year, because if just eating some cheap amoxicillin and metronidazole can be cured, then no one will spend dozens of dollars to buy interferants. ”

"So those bastards' hands can't touch here, so Zheng Jianguo found out?"

Bruce silently glanced at Carol, who was frowning, he was naturally no stranger to the faces of those capitalists in China, and it was not for nothing that he gambled with the whole family for money, Carol nodded and said: "That's it for now, those scum are in vain for public safety in order to make money for themselves——"

"That has nothing to do with us, this time everyone and everything has to give way to the mission-"

Bruce's face was much better, in his opinion, the billions of domestic markets were not a matter at all, and tens of billions could not compare to the smallest link on this mission, but just when he felt inexplicable pleasure, Carol next to him hesitated and said: "His teacher seems to regret coming back at the beginning, saying that he should come back at this time and come back with his research abroad, and also educate Zheng Jianguo with this matter - why do you want to help him contact study abroad?"

"That's not about helping him, you'll understand then-"

Bruce was stunned for a moment and shook his head with a smile, and when he immediately raised his arm and wanted to pat Carol on the shoulder, he suddenly remembered that he didn't know how many people were looking at him, so he had to speak: "You shouldn't have heard of this, not to mention that Zheng Jianguo seems to be only sixteen or seventeen years old this year, and when he succeeds in his studies, it will take ten or twenty years at the earliest, at that time I don't know where to do anything, plus he is still researching clinically, you have to take good care of this kind of person, and he will give you a black hand when you go to see a doctor one day——"

"Alright then, I'll go straight back to London. ”

Carol frowned and said, Bruce nodded and turned to watch him walk away, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth and lit it with a Zhibao lighter and smoked, a pair of eyes fell on the dead tree with only branches left, but he didn't expect that as he exhaled with a puff of smoke mixed with white mist, fine white particles fell in the sky, and soon his blue eyes lit up, and after a few puffs, he said to himself: "Winter is coming, will spring be far away?"

Bruce's figure disappeared quickly into the campus with the fluttering white particles, Qi Province also ushered in the first snow after the winter of 1978, and when Zheng Jianguo appeared from the conference room, the previous fine snow particles had turned into pieces of snowflakes, and he immediately reached out excitedly to reach out in front of him, but he didn't think about it but turned into water stains with the coldness, only to find that not only the hunger temperature on his hands was too high to hold the snow, but also the snowflakes on the ground were melting at the speed of the naked eye, fortunately, one after another snowflakes fell one after another, and it didn't take long to turn white。

"Jianguo, let's go?"

A voice sounded behind him, Zheng Jianguo turned his head to look at Ye Minde, who was full of old age spots, only to find that the old man's flower hair had turned completely white at some point, and a pair of big eye bags also appeared on the old cheeks, and he immediately nodded: "Okay." ”

"I intend to step down from my position as associate dean for graduate education. ”

Ye Minde was wearing a black coat with raw edges, Zheng Jianguo knew that this was brought by the old man when he returned to China, and he had been cherishing it for decades, and he was usually reluctant to wear it, but he didn't expect to wear it today in order to fill the façade, and immediately smiled: "It's time for you to rest and rest, I often see you tired during this time——"

"I know my body, there are no major problems are small problems, and the dean asked me to take on this job at that time, and I didn't want to take over, but I remembered that others had never been exposed to graduate education, so I reluctantly took it, and now I can barely support it and set up a shelf——"

Walking on the snowy campus, Ye Minde's spirit was much better than before, and he stopped under a corridor, turned his head to look at the silent Zheng Jianguo, and said with a smile: "Do you know why I will finalize who will pay for the tuition?"

"This-"

Zheng Jianguo didn't expect the old man to come to a god transfer, of course he knew what the reason was, but Zheng Jianguo shouldn't know, shook his head and said, "Is it very expensive?"

"It's very expensive, especially the clinical specialty of gastroenterology that I chose for you, in medical schools in the United States, you can't get into it by high school exams, but you have to graduate from college to take the exam, and the study fee is about $10,000 a year.

This is the price I had before I returned home, and it doesn't seem to be lower than that now, when their per capita income was only five or six hundred dollars, and the annual salary of two adults was not enough, and now I estimate that the tuition should be between fifteen and twenty thousand. ”

As if caught in a memory, after Ye Minde finished speaking, he saw that Zheng Jianguo just opened his eyes and said nothing, and couldn't help laughing: "This is still a simple study fee, as well as life, the cheapest chicken nuggets cost a dollar, I hope that if you go out, you will get a medical certificate and come back." ”

"Get a medical license?"

Zheng Jianguo was stunned, according to his idea, he could get a master's degree and doctorate after he went out, and then he would become an authority in gastroenterology when he came back, but he didn't expect to take the medical certificate: "Isn't it just a doctorate?"

"It's okay if you get an MD doctor, but if you don't take the USMLE exam, the MD degree is not worth much, you can only go to the hospital doctor and pass the exam after three or four years to get the medical license.

If you want a medical license, you need to go through another three to five years of further study to get a specialist license, if you can take enough credits two years in advance of medical school, then you should be able to get a specialist certificate after 8 years. ”

As if recalling his life plan, Ye Minde's pale face welled up with a little rosy, a pair of eyes swept Zheng Jianguo's slightly discolored cheeks, and said with a smile: "This is the plan I made back then, because my ideal when I was a child was to become a doctor who saves lives and helps the wounded.

And if you can get this specialty medical certificate, you will also get the entry certificate of this group, especially when you stand at the pinnacle of your field, you will only be surrounded by people with the same authority as you, and if you are willing to come back, I believe you will have amazing connections, and if you are just a researcher, you are just a researcher.

To put it bluntly, if you are just doing academic research, even if you win the Nobel Prize, these people will only look up to you, and they will not offend you and will not take the initiative to show favor to you, everyone will give you enough respect but not real friendship, but if you are a doctor in gastroenterology, this is a scarce resource for these people, and you can communicate with each other. ”

"I understand what you mean, if I am just a simple researcher, then I will only become a theoretical expert in this field, and if I can get a medical certificate, it will prove that I am still a practical expert, only the combination of theory and practice, in order to maximize the benefits of my current discovery, after all, medical care is a scarce resource for everyone!". ”

Zheng Jianguo instantly understood what Ye Minde wanted to express, in his memory, the hospital he was in was in a state of being crowded all the year round, and the city was like a vegetable market every day, if he got a medical license in the United States, he almost got a medical qualification certificate from his peers all over the world, then it can be considered that he has established the most basic communication qualification with other clinical authorities around the world, otherwise even if he has the money to invite people to see a doctor, there are hidden worries about the dedication of other doctors.

"Yes, the scarcity of medical care has always been a problem that countries around the world have no way to solve, because people have a heart to seek to receive the best medical services, which has led to an urgent need for the highest level of doctors, which naturally gives them a very high social status.

This is not the end of a failed operation in China and then beaten by the patient's family, so you don't have to worry about this, they will only think that you did your best, even if you have human error in the operation, and the person who can identify your mistake can only be other experts in your field. ”

Ye Minde only thought that Zheng Jianguo still had a deep memory of what he saw that time, and it could be regarded as bitter talk, of course, this was also what he heard from Ye Zhenkai's mouth, knowing that this disciple was extremely disgusted and resistant to the behavior of some patients' family members, and even some fear, this kind of fear lurking in the depths of his consciousness was probably the source of his rejection of the clinic, but fortunately, this possibility is almost impossible to happen abroad, and even if it happens, the consequences are not something that Chinese people can imagine:" The doctors there are very well paid, with an average annual salary of more than 50,000 yuan, ten times that of ordinary people - this is still the income before I came back. ”

"This, to our eyes, seems astronomical. ”

Even if he knew in his memory that the income of American doctors was hundreds of thousands of annual salaries, Zheng Jianguo was really shocked, the old man came back more than 20 years ago and it was so high, of course, he was just surprised, money was not a problem for him, his attention at this time was led away by what the old man said earlier, what did he say in the Burrow Ming say that there was no white Ding, and when he became friends with the world's top clinical experts, those who were not white Ding were also some preparatory patients, and no matter how powerful people came to the doctor, all they could do was to believe in the doctor。

Of course, Zheng Jianguo's question is not without questions: "Can you analyze the difference between the medical system over there and ours?"

"Of course there are differences, so let's not talk about them-"

Some people are not sure of Zheng Jianguo's intention to ask this, Ye Minde frowned slightly and said: "First of all, most of the people who can go to the hospital to see a doctor have insurance, and the process of seeing a doctor for this part of the people is to make an appointment to see a doctor, and then the hospital will send the list of expenses to the insurance company after treatment, and the insurance company will pay for the expenses, but this part of the cost only includes treatment fees and medical fees, and if you want to buy medicine, you need to take the list issued by the doctor to the pharmacy to buy it."

Scientifically speaking, the hospital is not an institution or a whole, and the logistics and services of some hospitals are provided by professional consulting companies and service companies, so in this way, a patient goes to see a doctor through the cooperation of doctors, hospitals, service companies, insurance companies, and pharmacies.

As for people who do not have insurance, they can only pay the full cost of their own treatment, but the advantage is that they can bargain, but considering that calling a 120 ambulance will cost tens to hundreds, and the cost of doing an appendectomy is thousands of dollars, those who have no money really can't afford to get sick.

Of course, they also have public welfare hospitals set up by the state, but this kind of hospital needs to be booked in advance, and as for when it will be, they can only pray that God will open their eyes, so people who do not have insurance, just like our farmers, will not go to the hospital to see a doctor until the end of the day.

If you go to the doctor and default on the hospital's bills, first of all, it will leave a stain on your personal credit, and then the debt collection company will come to the door, if you owe too much, you will face the risk of lawsuits and jail, and when you really reach this point, you will be considered a personal bankruptcy, and you can only become a homeless person when you get out of prison.

Their homeless people are not as good as us who ask for food, at least some people will be pitied, and the United States does not believe in tears, only your ability to believe, because your ability can create benefits for them, increase fiscal revenue, and promote the development of the country - the founding of the country, I think you can do it, but don't borrow money, remember!"
