Chapter Fifty-Eight: Assistant Anne
Few people know the city of Sunnyvale in Santa Clara County, California, USA, but there is another place name that has long been resounding all over the world, that is, Silicon Valley in the United States. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Silicon Valley is not a city, but a regional name, and Sunnyvale is one of the constituent cities of Silicon Valley.
Many high-tech companies such as AMD, Yahoo, and others have their headquarters in Sunnyvale.
This is the cradle of entrepreneurs.
Due to the attraction of advanced technology, many tourists visit every year, although there are not many places to see in the city.
Intuitive-Surgical's corporate headquarters are also located in Sunnyvale.
This medical device company has just developed, and hundreds of millions of dollars in assets in the medical device industry can not make much waves, and the industry can only be regarded as a small company.
After Kevin Telman's introduction, Shen Yang learned that Intuitive-Surgical's main focus is still on the manufacture of automated instruments, and they have been working on a fully automated surgical system to greatly liberate surgeons and reduce the probability of surgical failure.
This research is Intuitive-Surgical's most focused project, and they are already making good progress.
However, if you want the company to have a long-term development, it is definitely not enough to put all your energy into one project, and the senior management of Intuitive-Surgical has been looking for breakthroughs in other fields, and they attach great importance to this cooperation with Shen Yang.
A few days ago, Intuitive-Surgical had held a high-level meeting to discuss cooperation with Shen Yang.
As soon as Shen Yang arrived in Sunnyvale, he was warmly received by the staff of Intuitive-Surgical, he rested in the hotel for a day, and went to the headquarters of Intuitive-Surgical the next morning.
Seeking cooperation with American medical companies to attract enough investment is the reason why Shen Yang decided to come to the United States, and he has made full preparations for this, and the content documents in his handbag alone are almost 100 pages.
Under the attention of the important senior management of Intuitive-Surgical, Shen Yang began to give a speech on the theory of coordinated movement recovery.
On the conference room stage, he seemed unhurried.
"Everyone present should have a general understanding of my research, so I will start with a more subtle principle, we all know that human muscles are made up of cells, and the connections between muscle cells are very close, and together they constitute ......."
Shen Yang's opening was a bit unexpected, although he talked about the 'principle of coordinated motion', he began to expound his theory from the perspective of microscopic cells. From cells to muscles, from muscles to the movement of substances inside cells caused by muscle tremors, from the perspective of microscopic cells, he still expounded the theory.
This also made everyone present more convinced of the theory.
There were still many people who were skeptical of the 'coordinated movement recovery theory', because there was no theory to support similar views in the past, and a new theory often had many problems that were difficult to explain, but I didn't expect this young Chinese to explain his theory from a new perspective, and people couldn't find a little mistake.
In a way, this proves the feasibility of the theory.
For example, if you look at a cube from one angle, it may be a cube or a cuboid, because you can't see anything on the back, and if you look at it from the other side, it's still a cube, then the chance of it being a cube becomes very high.
After spending more than an hour explaining the theory, Shen Yang began to talk about the main point, that is, the feasibility of cooperating in the manufacture of medical devices.
"Muscle coordination may sound simple, but if you want to achieve practical results, you need to find a very professional masseur, who needs to have a full knowledge and understanding of the theory, and have a very professional technique that is in line with the coordination of muscle movements...... Of course it can't be! ”
"What professional researcher in sports science would go to be a masseur? So we need to use equipment to assist. ”
"This is also the most critical step in the process of achieving results......
After that, Shen Yang began to explain the efficacy of the manufactured equipment, and finally talked about the auxiliary use of the equipment and the maximum possible recovery effect, "Theoretically, it can shorten the recovery time of the injured person by up to one-third!" ”
Immediately, everyone in the venue was talking.
Don't look at just a third, that's quite a staggering statistic!
For example, if a person has suffered a traumatic injury, it takes three months to recover normally, then the use of equipment to assist the recovery will only take two months to recover, and most people are willing to pay expensive remuneration in order to speed up the recovery.
And that's just ordinary people.
What if it's a professional athlete? Not to mention a month, even if it is an early recovery day, it is worth a lot for them.
There are so many sports in the world, there are various sports teams, they have a huge number of professional athletes, injuries have always been the natural enemy of professional athletes, if there is a kind of equipment to help, reduce the recovery time by a third, they are absolutely willing to pay a sky-high price for it.
Just a professional sports team is a huge market, not to mention, countless large hospitals and rehabilitation centers in the world, if this equipment can be developed, it will definitely have a huge market, and what is more attractive is that they will not have competitors in the short term.
The appeal of such a project is unquestionable.
The Intuitive-Surgical executives in the conference room, although they did not say anything, in their hearts, they had completely agreed to cooperate, and it was a 'necessary cooperation'.
If they are preempted by other competitors, they will regret it a lot!
The only uncertainty is the specific way of cooperation.
――――
When Shen Yang walked out of the Intuitive-Surgical headquarters with his document bag, his face was full of smiles, he knew that he had succeeded, and the only thing that was bad was to discuss the way of cooperation.
Kevin Telman immediately chased after him from behind, and he also brought a tall white girl.
"This is Anne, I will be your assistant in the future, if you have anything to do in Sunnyvale, just ask Anne to do it."
"Assistant?" Shen Yang was a little puzzled.
"My name is Annie, hello, Mr. Shen, I can also speak a little Chinese." Anne took the initiative to reach out and introduce herself.
Shen Yang shook her hand, then pulled Telman aside and asked, "What does this mean?" Hurry up and talk about it. ”
Telman smiled bitterly, "I'll tell you the truth, it's Mr. Gütar, he wants you not to cooperate with other companies, just let Anne be your assistant, Anne used to be a translator for the company, she knows the languages of several countries, her ability is quite good, and ...... Anne is beautiful, isn't she? ”
Gary Gütar is the CEO of Intuitive-Surgical.
Shen Yang rolled his eyes, "I can't afford the salary of a beautiful female assistant." ”
"If you can take it, said Mr. Gütar, Anne will be your assistant and your guide until you leave the United States, and you can walk around the city at your leisure. If the company can successfully work with you, Anne may also be assigned to work in China, and of course, all her salary will be paid by the company. ”
Shen Yang understood.
Intuitive-Surgical was worried that he would suddenly change his mind and cooperate with other companies, so he sent someone to spy on him, and at the same time expressed his importance to himself.
Shen Yang could only passively accept it, there has always been a tall female assistant by his side, which is actually quite good.
"Maybe you can come to the office t-i-ao later......" He quickly shook his head and glanced at Anne a little weakly.
Anne was looking.
The two glanced at each other, and Shen Yang suddenly realized that he was embarrassed first.
Anne burst out laughing, she had never been in contact with Chinese, and only felt that this thin big boy was funny.
If Shen Yang knew that Anne defined herself as a 'boy' in her heart, it is estimated that her face would not be very good, but fortunately, he didn't know, so he got along well with Anne.
