Chapter 125: The Winner of Life, the Perfect Scum (Two More and 10,000 Words Pull)
In the more than six months since the launch of the Osborne Group's limb regeneration program, the company has already achieved initial results worldwide. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In addition to the thousands of volunteers selected from around the world as a campaign to raise awareness of the Osborne Group's limb regeneration program, the first to receive the Osborne Group's medical expenses were borne by the Osborne Group.
Others are disabled or veterans from the military of various countries. All countries, including China, the United States, Russia, France, and the United Kingdom, have shown a desire for the limb regeneration technology mastered by the Osborne Group.
Even China and Russia, which have been in a delicate position with the United States, have given the green light to the Osborne Group's limb regeneration program. In particular, the Chinese government has always been insensitive to the genetic engineering technology mastered by foreign companies.
Unless the Chinese government is willing to disclose the technical indicators to the government, the Chinese government will at most put one or two designated units as experiments, and it is impossible to promote them publicly on a large scale across the country.
However, because of his last trip to the East, Harry finally chose to truthfully announce to the Chinese government that all the weapons that had fallen from the Osborne group had fallen into the hands of the anti-China separatist group Ten Commandments.
Moreover, the Osborne Group is willing to cooperate with the Chinese government in tracing the whereabouts of these weapons, and the Osborne Group does not agree that any weapons will fall into the hands of terrorists.
Because of this attitude, as well as his support for the follow-up weapons trace, Osborne provided clues to help the Chinese government solve the hidden stakes of several separatist forces secretly lurking in its territory.
Therefore, after repeated trade-offs, and a systematic evaluation by Chinese internal scientists, it is considered to be a harmless medical technology. Rather than the genetic engineering or human modification technology that the government feared, the Chinese government officially announced in early May that it would open the domestic limb regenerative medicine market to Osborne.
The first batch of openings includes a total of 10 medical sites in the three megacities of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. As soon as the news was announced, the stock price of the Osborne Group, which had plummeted due to the scandal of the Toyo division, immediately rebounded.
Harry, who had been criticized and blamed in the company, took a breath. This is considered a loss, and there must be a gain. Originally, the weapons that flowed out of the Toyo branch were illegal, and the company did not make much real profit for it. The real windfall profits were divided between Toyo insiders and the Shishida Foundation.
Therefore, although Harry lost some of the company's profits by using the principle of frankness, it was exchanged for the full opening of the Chinese government's medical market to China, as well as Harry's personal prestige, which established his image as a socially responsible entrepreneur. Overall, Harry still earned this choice.
After the announcement of the medical centers in China in the afternoon of the same day, by the morning of the next day, all the ten medical centers had been booked. Even the backlog has been scheduled for three years.
China, a superpopulous country, still has many patients who have lost limbs for various reasons, or have stunted development of certain body parts. Because the whole huge base is here, even if the per capita incidence rate in this country is much lower than that of other countries, the total number is still very terrifying.
Representatives of the Osborne Group have travelled to China to open more medical sites and further expand the scope of the limb regeneration program.
Since the start of the limb regeneration program, the company's in-house experts have been trying to make better changes to this medical technology. But for some reason, Harry didn't use the Osborne team directly.
He personally set up a new private company, which was suggested by Li Jie. Because the patent for limb regeneration belonged to Harry's private, not to the Osborne Group. Therefore, relying on the importance of this patent, Harry's position within the group has risen. The old guys in the company didn't dare to point fingers at him.
However, if the technology is improved and upgraded by the Osborne Group, then the technology will become the patent of the Osborne Group. Harry will no longer hold patents for the new technology.
The business community always pays attention to leaving a backhand. So at the suggestion of Li Jie, Harry opened a private technology research company. He invited many world-renowned experts to participate in the research and development of this improved limb regeneration technology.
A good salary, and the chance to make a name for yourself. This kind of good thing of fame and fortune is not something that everyone can encounter. Almost all of the experts invited by Harry expressed their willingness to participate in the project.
Li Jie, as Harry's advisor, naturally participated in the preparation and formation of this matter. The name of the new company is: Osborne Technology R&D Studio. But the company had nothing to do with the Osborne Group, and it was entirely Harry's personal funding.
There was a hiccup in the formation of this studio. Professor Otto was originally the leader of new energy research and development within the Osborne Group.
He has great ambitions for new energy research and development. He wants to build an artificial sun in the lab! And he's halfway through that project. However, because of the birth of Tony New Energy, Otto's work was directly stopped by the Osborne Group.
Because Tony Stark's new energy has proven its worth and has mature production technology. But Professor Otto's new energy plan has only just begun. Even if the laboratory is successfully ignited, it will take up to fifteen to twenty years to mature from the most optimistic estimates of commercial use.
Please, fifteen to twenty years. By that time, Tony's helium-3 was already meeting the world's energy needs. How could it be possible to compete with Stark Industries at that time?
Since there is no commercial value, it is normal for business groups to cut the experiment in half. Professor Otto was thus expelled by the Osborne group.
However, when Li Jie and Harry were discussing the formation of the new company, Professor Otto's name was turned up. Li Jie noticed that in addition to new energy research, this person also has excellent mechanical prosthetics and nerve connection technology.
Almost subconsciously, Li Jie sent him an invitation letter inviting him to participate in the preparation of the new company. Professor Otto, who had just lost his job at the time and had no goals to strive for, accepted the invitation.
And when Professor Otto came to the company to report, and Li Jie talked to him in detail, he suddenly felt very happy. This Professor Otto's real name is Li Jie, but I really don't remember. But his other nickname, Li Jie, is like thunder, that is, the famous Doctor Octopus.
I remember that he was the villain boss in the second part of the old movie "Spider-Man", and he caused a lot of trouble for Peter by relying on the mechanical claws he made.
And now, for various reasons, he has been kept away from that failed experiment that may have taken a major turn in his life. That's fine, artificial suns or something are too dangerous. Or wait for human beings to be more mature in technology and think about this kind of thing.
Li Jie decided to let Dr. Octopus make good use of his expertise and help Harry develop a mechanical skeleton to assist the human body in the new company, and help those who are in the grade or weak and have no way to regenerate bones to make suitable mechanical bones.
And the doctor that Lee Jay took Thor to visit today, Dr. Stephen Strange, is also an expert at the new company. He participates on a part-time basis, or more accurately as a consultant.
Because in the process of limb regeneration, the reorganization of flesh and bone is never the most difficult problem. The really difficult thing is how to regenerate those small nerves perfectly and accurately.
Dr. Strange is a genius in neurosurgery and has a proven track record in this field. He even created a surgical technique named after him called "Strange Suture".
The doctor was met at an upscale hospital on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Dr. Strange's hospital has one of the highest cure rates in New York. But at the same time, the fees are almost the most expensive in New York.
Dr. Strange is busy, very busy. His assistant had to send him a stack of materials every day. This is for patients who expect him to help see a doctor.
Because Strange has been a doctor for many years, the success rate of the surgery modified by him is almost 100%. This made him a myth, especially in the field of neurosurgery, which is almost impossible to do.
Dr. Strange had an elegant face, and he looked more like a scholar than a doctor. With slender body proportions, he has some to a model. The most impressive thing is his hands.
With ten slender and powerful fingers, if these hands are not the chief surgeon, if they play the piano, I am afraid they will have some achievements. Elegant in temperament, good looks, and successful in his career, Dr. Strange is a true winner in life.
When Li Jie shook hands with him and greeted him, he was even more sure of his idea.
"Hello Mr. Li. Need to drink tea or coffee. I have black tea from Ceylon and Blue Mountain coffee here. Strange's greeting revealed his taste.
He didn't ignore Li Jie because of his youth, because he knew that the young man in front of him had a bad relationship with Harry Osborne. Although he was only Harry's personal advisor, he was actually more of an Osborne group executive because of his influence over Harry.
"Black tea, thank you. Doctor, it's a pleasure to meet you. Thank you for participating in our scientific and technological research lab. Speaking of which, I haven't really dealt with you yet, except for once when I met you at the company's first meeting. "Lee's first impression of Dr. Strange was one of favoritism.
Because he treats people with great style. You won't get tired or feel uncomfortable chatting with this kind of person.
Strange asked his personal assistant to bring two cups of black tea over the phone. He smiled and nodded at Li Jie, and then looked at Thor: "This one?"
"This one is Thor. And the one I mentioned to you on the phone. For some reason, I expected him to get a job at the hospital. Li Jie pointed at Thor. Thor forced a smile in response to Strange.
Dr. Strange glanced Thor up and down, his lips pursed but quickly let go, and he didn't make any rudeness.
"Does Mr. Thor have any knowledge or experience in medical care?" said Strange with an eyebrow raised, smiling.
"I will be battlefield first aid bandaging and simple trauma treatment and rescue. "As a fighter, injuries are inevitable. Thor had learned some simple first aid on the battlefield. But it's too rare to expect him, after all, Asgard has a dedicated healer.
Thor's hands were only used to treat wounds when the therapist was not available.
"Battlefield?" Strange was a little curious when he heard this term: "Mr. Thor was a soldier before?"
"I'm the commander-in-chief, to be exact. "Thorco is a former Asgardian military leader.
Strange looked at Li Jie with a puzzled expression. Li Jie could only help Thor to open his mouth: "His nickname in the army is commander-in-chief, after all, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier." ”
Strange smiled formulaically, "So Mr. Thor doesn't have a medical certificate, but he learned basic trauma rescue on the battlefield, right?" ”
"Yes. Li Jie Titor nodded: "After all, he is not here to apply for a technical job, I said it on the phone before." ”
"Well, I understand. Strange smiled at Thor, who didn't like the way he laughed. Because every time Strange smiles, he reminds him of the kind of smile that Lucky has to deal with him, and Strange doesn't smile as well as Rockie.
"So Mr. Thor's job as an ambulance stretcher is okay? As long as it can help the doctor who is with the car to immobilize the injured person, the most basic trauma bandaging and cardiopulmonary resuscitation will be fine. The main work is to carry the injured and handle some of the more physically demanding tasks. ”
Li Jie originally wanted this kind of work, and he felt that this kind of work would be more meaningful to Thor. He can't eat at home every day and wait for death, he needs to have a formal job. Let him understand that living is not about fighting and killing, and it is also important to rely on labor to support himself.
"Okay, I don't think there's any problem. Li Jie glanced at Thor and made eye contact, but Thor did not show any dissatisfaction. Being a first responder? Thor doesn't think it's bad. It's better than cleaning.
And after going out to work, he didn't need to face Li Jie's hellish training every day, so he didn't refute the choice Li Jie made for him.
"Then it's settled. I still have a little say in this hospital. I'll say hi to the first responders, and you'll be able to report on Mr. Thor tomorrow. Now the emergency department is short of staff. As Strange spoke, his assistant came in with two cups of tea.
The assistant gave the black tea to Li Jie, and the two did not go out after putting it down. He still had several documents under his arm, and he glanced at Dr. Strange and motioned for something to talk to him.
"Excuse me. Strange smiled at the two of them, and he pulled the assistant down to the corner of the office. With a very low voice, he ensured that Li Jie and the two could not hear the volume, and whispered, "What's the matter?"
"These patients have been scheduled for three months, and they've been waiting for you to confirm the timing of the surgery, doctor. The assistant replied in the same small voice. He handed the document under his arm to Strange.
"I've said it many times, don't give it to me. Strange quickly flipped through the information and said to his assistant in an unhappy tone.
"The man had a comminuted fracture of the spine, and bone spurs severed all the nerve veins in the entire back spine. This is a fatal injury, even with Osborne's latest limb regeneration technology, his entire spine has to be extracted to ensure the smooth regeneration, and how much risk will I take to do this kind of surgery, what about my 100% success rate? Unless he's the U.S. Secretary of State!"
"And this one, an immigrant of Mexican origin. Nerve necrosis of the left hand. The operation wasn't too difficult, but why didn't he just go to the Osborne Group and get him another novice. Strange asked, looking through the information quickly.
"Because the price of Osborne's limb regeneration technology is too high. The assistant replied truthfully.
Strange looked at his assistant with an expression that looked at a fool: "Listen Tom, I don't want to swear. But I want to make sure, did you bring your brain to work? The document says that when he was running a hot dog stand, he was hit by a heavy object when he made a mistake and caused this injury. He can't afford to pay for the limb regeneration program, do you think he can afford to pay for our surgery? I don't even know how much of his medical insurance will reimburse him!"
"Hospitals open their doors to make money. Dr. Strange put it rightly: "Do you want to saddle the hospital with a bad debt? The hospital wants profit, and the doctor wants reputation." And you don't take care of either. This is the last time Tom. If you do this next time, I'm afraid I'll have to consider changing an assistant. ”
The young assistant named Tom was a little red-cheeked by Strange's words: "I'm sorry, sir. ”
"Don't say you're sorry, remember to bring your head to work next time. Don't put your mind all on mobile games. You can't be a big guy playing those things. Strange patted Tom on the shoulder and motioned for him to go out with the information.
"Oh yes, sir. Ms. Maggie and Ms. Perry both called to ask what time you leave work. They want me to tell you that they want to treat you to dinner and a movie in the evening. The assistant was just about to leave when he suddenly thought of it. He whispered.
"How did you answer?" Strange frowned a little when he heard the two women invite at the same time.
"I said you've had too many surgeries lately, and you've been busy. Staggered the time of the two. Ms. Maggie's lunch invitation was rescheduled to Wednesday and Ms. Perry's movie was rescheduled to Saturday night. Tom reported truthfully.
"Well done Tom. Strange tapped Tom on the back and signaled that he was doing a good job, "I'll go to the florist later and help me bring ninety-nine roses to each of them." ”
Strange's office was actually very large, and he and Tom were also standing more than seven or eight meters away from Li Jie, talking in a very low voice. Normal people would not be able to hear them at this distance.
But Li Jie's five senses have become acute since he practiced the exercises. Although the two lowered their voices, Li Jie still heard the conversation between the two clearly. Because there was no other noise in the room that interfered with Li Jie's hearing.
Now his affection for Dr. Strange is gone. I didn't even feel comfortable sitting in his office.
When Strange returns to Lee Kit and Thor again, Lee Jie asks for his resignation. Strange sent the two out of the office with a smile on his face.
"It's a pleasure to meet you today, Mr. Lee. Ah, and Mr. Thor, of course. At the door of Strange's office, the famous doctor shook hands with the two of them and said goodbye.
"You're too polite, Dr. Strange. Although he was extremely disgusted with this guy, Li Jie still put on a formulaic smile.
As soon as Li Jie and Thor had not taken two steps, they heard the voice of Dr. Strange and another person greeting him. "Christine, do you have time to have dinner together in the evening?"
Li Jie glanced back and saw that Strange was greeting a female doctor in an emergency department uniform and inviting her to dinner. This female doctor is still very beautiful.
Originally, it was natural for men to pursue women, but after hearing the conversation between Strange and Tom before, Li Jie felt that this guy was simply scum when he saw Strange's movements.
In contrast, Thor, the god of salted fish, is simply a pure and lovely little angel.
Li Jie hurried out of the hospital, but fortunately Thor wasn't working under this scumbag. Otherwise, he would have to be abolished.
When Thor left the hospital with Lee, he said, "I don't really like the doctor I saw today, he gives me a sense of hypocrisy. Like some of the gods I've seen before. ”
"Those who only speak nice things to believers and promise many things that they simply cannot do in order to deceive believers of faith and piety. Strange gave me the same annoying feeling as they did. ”
Li Jie did not refute Thor's words, he just glanced back at the huge hospital, he remembered that Strange's office was on the fifteenth floor by the east window, and he could see it from Li Jie's angle: "Yes." This world is full of such people. Dr. Strange just that. A winner in life, the perfect scum!"
