Chapter 9: Sigh
The last two months of 1902 were uneventful. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After inspecting his own property, John was energetic and devoted himself to a new round of textbook revisions. Because in the past three years, there have been many major breakthroughs in hospitals around the world, and at least a third of them were pioneered by the Huntelaar Medical College and three affiliated hospitals, it is definitely worth reprinting a few textbooks!
From 1900 to 1902, the Institute of Bacteriology of the Huntelaar Medical College published a series of papers, such as typhus vectors and rickettsia, and further research on infectious diseases such as plague and cholera, revealing many new discoveries in infection and treatment.
In August 1900, Ehrlich et al. were in John? On the basis of Huntelaar's theory, the theories of complement fixation and hemolysis were further improved, and Mr. Huntelaar's theory of allergy was verified through experiments.
In December 1900, the Heinz Medical Devices Company partnered with the Huntelaar Medical College to improve the electrocardiogram; The Huntelaar School of Medicine began to study ECG waveforms and referred to the information given by Mr. Huntelaar.
In 1901, the Physiology Laboratory and Pathology Laboratory of Heinz Medical College published a series of papers on thyroid physiology and pathology, and the Department of Surgery at Heinz General Hospital began to study thyroid surgery. In September 1901, the Department of Surgery at Heinz General Hospital completed six thyroid surgeries, all of which were successful.
In April 1901, the Bacteriological Institute discovered Treponema pallidum.
In May 1901, John? Huntelaar developed the virus theory based on the findings of the Dutchman Bergerinck and the German Leefler. According to Mr. Huntelaar, viruses are microorganisms that are smaller and simpler than bacteria, and are the culprits of many diseases. Mr. Huntelaar also asserted that viruses will be one of the important research directions of medicine in the future.
In November 1901, John? In a physiology class, Mr. Huntelaar talked about the French physiologist Bernard, talked about the physiological concept proposed by the other party, and then talked about the new theory he "developed" - homeostasis.
In July 1902, while John was still in Europe, the bacteriological institute of the Huntelaar Medical College discovered the tumor virus.
In January 1902, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Heinz General Hospital published a paper announcing that in 1901, 1,031 cases of maternity were admitted, four cases died, and three infant deaths were recorded, and the mortality rate was the lowest. Fourteen of these women were treated with blood transfusions for massive bleeding and only two died. In the same period, the Department of Surgery published a paper on blood transfusion technology, summarizing the past 420 cases of blood transfusion during surgery, and the mortality rate was only 3%.
……
From 1900 to 1902, the Huntelaar Medical System published more than 1,400 papers in three years!
Perhaps compared to those who have more than a dozen or dozens of papers published in a year, this number is really not high, after all, Huntelaar's medical-related technicians have exceeded 500 people, and the average is only two or three papers per person. But there is no doubt that the Huntelaar system publishes high-quality papers, and each one can attract a high level of attention from the same professionals.
This kind of characteristic that is difficult to replicate is the impetus for the rapid rise of the New Medical Journal!
After years of development, New Medical Journal has become the top journal in North America and is recognized as the authoritative medical journal. In addition to the support of the Heinz Medical System, the support of medical schools of top institutions such as Columbia, Hopkins, Harvard, etc., is equally important. Thus, by the end of 1902, the circulation of the New Medical Journal had exceeded 1,500 copies!
In 1902, this was a very impressive number.
The rapid development of the New Medical Journal greatly encouraged the Huntelaar publishing house, to which it belongs, and began to plan more medical journals, such as professional journals such as surgery, internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, and basic medical journals such as physiology and pathology. The future Huntelaar Medical Journal Media Group began to take shape in New York at the beginning of the 20th century.
In addition to magazines, Huntelaar Publishing is also alive and well in book publishing.
In John? With the support of Mr. Huntelaar's rights, Huntelaar Publishing House has begun to form four major fist series products: Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection, Huntelaar Medical School Textbook, and Mark? Twain and O? A collection of works by Henry's native American writers and a collection of classic European literature. In addition to Sherlock Holmes and medical textbooks, with its strong capital advantage and the channels of the old Huntelaar Trading Company, Huntelaar Publishing House won the copyrights of the works of many well-known authors and promoted them to every corner of North America......
……
Fast forward to 1903.
At the beginning of 1903, in the far east, someone in Anyang, Henan Province found words on oracle bones, and only two days after the news broke, two mysterious figures appeared in Anyang and began to sweep all the oracle bones with words on the market at a very attractive price. For a time, a large number of oracle bones were excavated and sold by the people, and then sorted, packed and shipped away. And when other British, Americans, and even Japanese got the news and arrived, there were very few oracle bones left in Anyang, and a huge number of treasures were escorted by professionals to the cruise ship to the other side of the ocean......
At the same time, Huntelaar Bank never stopped acquiring Chinese antiquities.
The Qing government, which signed a huge compensation agreement, had to use all kinds of means to raise funds, including selling countless good things left by their ancestors. Under the pressure of the government, many people in various places had to sell their family heirlooms, and in the early 20th century, when the Japanese were not yet in the world, a large number of these treasures were collected by the Huntelaar Bank and then packed and sent to New York, USA.
In addition to cultural relics, a large number of international students were also sent away.
In fact, since 1902, the tide of studying abroad in China has gradually begun. Because of the low cost and similar writing, studying in Japan has undoubtedly become the first choice for Chinese. It's just that in this world, because of John's existence and the cooperation with Rong Hong has always been very pleasant, a large number of gentry in Jiangsu and Zhejiang began to let their children or sponsor poor children to study in the United States. Although the cost is relatively high, the Huntelaar consortium gives a large amount of money every year to subsidize it, which is not much different from Japan.
Therefore, at the end of 1902, the number of young students in the group skyrocketed to 190!
In February 1903, when Yung Hong announced that he would cooperate with the Americans to open five English preparatory schools and three German preparatory schools in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the outstanding graduates would be sent to study in ten famous universities in the northeast of the United States or Germany, it caused quite a stir!
Americans will bear half of the cost of studying abroad!
Such preferential conditions may not sound credible, but with the example of countless groups of young international students in front of them, many young elites still flock to it. Anyone knows that Japan learns from the West, and the United States and Germany are undoubtedly one of the Western powers, so it is naturally much better to study there than Japan......
……
In April 1903, the Russians refused to withdraw their troops from the northeast, and the whole country became anti-Russian.
While the country is lively, there is also an undercurrent in the world. The British and Americans supported Japan against the Russians, while the Germans and French supported Russia, and the contradictions between the two sides began to intensify.
It was at this time that a telegram was sent from New York to Shanghai, China.
A mysterious force during the Sino-Japanese War and the Eight-Nation Alliance's entry into Beijing began a secret operation as early as a year ago: a few inconspicuous cargo ships were transporting large quantities of cargo to China at a modest rate -- the unloading places were concentrated in the northeastern region of China. Few people knew what the goods were, and the owners had no intention of selling them, so they quietly brought them ashore and hid them quietly - under the strict organization that no word was revealed.
By the beginning of 1904, the accumulated cargo had reached a rather appalling level.
At the same time, the funds of the Huntelaar Bank were mobilized in early 1904 and began to make frequent moves in the financial markets. And at this time, a large number of sensational rumors circulated in the future war zone between Japan and Russia, especially in Lushun and other places, coupled with the sporadic gunfire from time to time, so that many ordinary people who had a way began to flee.
So at the end of February 1904, when the Japanese began to attack the Russians, the violent market fluctuations immediately made the Huntelaar Bank reap huge benefits, and a large number of Chinese successfully left the land that would soon become the Shura field.
Far away in New York, a heavy sigh was heard. (To be continued.) )
