Chapter X
July 1891 was a busy month for John.
Medical school admissions were a top priority, and John had to go to Osler's office almost every other day to check on the situation and help with some tricky things. After more than a year of hard work on the hospital side, the results in all aspects ushered in a blowout period, and new papers were written almost every week, and he also needed to check - at least for three years, he did not plan to let his hospital go out with a bad manuscript.
In addition to the work in the hospital, Motorola has also made a big move.
Tesla was able to complete the improvement of radio equipment and make it completely commercial quality, thanks to the use of the Edison effect to invent a new type of device - the diode! Of course, the diode was not enough, and then he cleverly added a grid between the filament of the diode and the lamp board to make the world's first vacuum triode - our Mr. Traverser still did not hold back, and reminded the scientific master a little.
The beginning of the electronics industry was brought forward by a full thirteen years!
Of course, this is only John? Huntelaar alone knows that the interest classes he participated in in high school in his previous life gave him a lot of confidence to cooperate with Tesla. And it is the emergence of vacuum transistors that has made Motorola's radio equipment develop by leaps and bounds, and truly has the basis for marketing to the world.
In July 1891, Tesla built its first commercial prototype.
The work that had already been prepared immediately began, and more than a dozen high-performance radios were produced in a week. and sold to the U.S. Navy and U.S. Army for $1,600 each. The profit of more than 300 percent made the two company bosses smile, and at the same time, Taylor accelerated negotiations with the military department, hoping to sell to the world as soon as possible - people who have not been in this era. It will never be possible to understand their desire for wireless communications, especially for the military and businessmen......
In addition to these two jobs, there is also a newly built car plant.
The first plant of the Heinz Motor Company was built in Brooklyn, an area that has not yet joined New York, but has grown rapidly. Especially after the completion of the Brooklyn Bridge a few years ago, Brooklyn and Manhattan have become more and more connected, which has also made old Huntelaar more attractive to the city - it is convenient and cheap.
In terms of land and real estate. The elder Huntelaar and his grandson had very different philosophies.
As a time-traveler, John knows exactly how prosperous Manhattan will be in the future, whether it's a hospital or a medical school. Including supporting accommodation buildings, etc., he did not hesitate to choose Manhattan, and tried to choose the best area with the environment, for which he did not hesitate to invest a lot of real money. And the old Huntelaar as a traditional businessman. Pay more attention to future returns. So he prefers to buy land in places like Brooklyn, and the scale of the sale is not small. And now Brooklyn, as a city of trees and churches, is also more favored by the elderly.
Well, it's a bit of a stretch again......
……
“…… This is where tomorrow's exam will be. ”
Pointing to the lecture hall that had been cleaned up, Osler smiled happily: "There are sixty-eight candidates in total, although it is far from the ideal number in my mind, but it should not be a problem to select ten outstanding young people...... Haha, you know. There were nearly twenty of them who had graduated from Columbia College. ”
"Oh? That's really good, it seems that the name of our hospital is still not small! ”
Raised eyebrows. John's mood was suddenly relieved.
In just a few years, Heinz General Hospital has surpassed other established hospitals in Manhattan.
Even the most obscure New Yorkers now know that there is a comfortable, clean hospital in Manhattan, where they can perform the best surgeries in the world, with the best sulfonamides and aspirin in the world, and the use of magical light that penetrates flesh and bones and internal organs, etc., all of which have made Heinz famous in the past two years. You know, in this era of extremely underdeveloped information and communication technology, it is really not easy to get most New Yorkers to hear the name of a hospital.
I am afraid that the doctors at Columbia College have the best experience of this.
Because it is located in Manhattan, New York, the nascent Heinz School of Medicine is in a competitive relationship with Columbia College School of Medicine, but it also has a very close relationship. Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of Heinz General Hospital in the fields of surgical sterilization, blood transfusion, obstetrics and gynecology surgery, local anesthesia and basic surgical techniques, more and more new papers have been published, and Colombian surgeons have come more diligently.
From John, the surgeons in Colombia learned a lot.
Gone are the opera houses of Columbia Medical College, where surgeons put on sterilized surgical gowns, hats, masks and gloves, and even invested five figures in renovating surgery and obstetrics and gynecology at the end of last year! Of course, the systems and techniques of the surgery at Heinz General Hospital were also transplanted to Colombia in complete or near-intact. It can even be said that not only surgeons, but also internal medicine and obstetricians and gynecologists have increased their communication with Osler and Kelly, because with John's often intentional and unintentional guidance and the support of large amounts of money, their research results have also shown an explosive trend......
Therefore, the name of Heinz Hospital is thunderous to many Columbia College students!
Naturally, there are no secrets between students in a school, so when the news of the first enrollment of the new school is about to begin, many Columbia College students who are more interested in being a physician and know more about Heinz General Hospital naturally have a plan to take a look. After all, in terms of the economic conditions of this era, the doctors at Heinz General Hospital were well paid, with enough salaries to live a very good life in Manhattan, and don't forget, John's other benefits for the doctors were also considerable in the eyes of many people: spacious and comfortable housing or dormitories, economical and delicious on-site restaurants, basketball courts and other sports venues, which were not small attractive to young people.
"That's right!"
After smiling, John suddenly remembered the name he had seen not long ago, and hurriedly asked, "Professor, that Harvey?" Is Cushing coming? ”
Many of the people who had signed up before later changed their minds, and John was afraid that the master neurosurgeon would also give up.
"He's coming."
Osler also remembered Cushing's name, and after thinking about it, he nodded affirmatively.
After getting Osler's confirmation, John finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily: "Haha, I'm looking forward to the exam starting tomorrow more and more......" (To be continued.) )
