Chapter 46: Opportunity

"The Hellfire Club can give you a chance."

Sebastian ignored the mockery hidden in Leon's words, and said indifferently: "The meme company you founded has two technologies,

Hydroponic meat technology has changed the pattern of industry and agriculture in the world, and has solved the food problem once and for all.

The artificial organs evolved from stem cell cultivation technology have helped all mankind take the first step towards never suffering from disease.

With these two points alone, Mr. Leon will go down in history forever. ”

Sebastian paused, looked at Leon's expressionless face, and said in a deep voice, "However, this is not enough. ”

This middle-aged man with a gloomy face and the arbitrary temperament of a high-ranking and powerful person said slowly,

"As you must know, due to the limitations of political, economic, and interest factors, the influence of artificial organs and hydroponic meat is not large, and even the monopoly in the industry is a distance away, let alone dominating the same type of products in the world."

"Indeed." "So far, hydroponic meat has accounted for 30% of the federal market, but meme companies also have to pay excess taxes to compensate farmers who lose their jobs – and the federal government itself can't completely cut down the old agricultural production system."

As for artificial organs, they suffer more constraints. ”

"That's right." Sebastian said confidently: "Let's not talk about hydroponic meat technology that can rewrite the international power comparison, let's focus on artificial organs first."

Artificial organ replacement surgery can be said to be the ultimate means to end all medical problems. Whoever masters it means that they can occupy an absolutely advantageous position in the whole of America and the entire civilized world. ”

He moved a chair from the beginning, sat comfortably at Leon's desk, and said in a deep voice: "First of all, let's keep up with the trend of the times, starting with the ACA bill. ”

The so-called ACA bill is actually the Affordable Care Act (Affordable Care Act) that a former Guanhai boss who did not want to be named regarded as his life's work.

Leon knew this, of course, but since Sebastian had the intention of cooperating, he didn't mind hearing it.

"Originally, according to the estimates of the previous big bosses and their think tanks, the ACA can prohibit discrimination, compulsory insurance, regulate insurance, and expand medical care, and the whole bill is interlocking, benefiting as many as tens of millions and hundreds of millions of people.

However, the ACA Act may seem good, but it is difficult to implement. ”

"It's a good idea that insurance companies in the federal region don't pass on payments directly to patients, but approach providers to negotiate medical costs," Sebastian said.

The patient himself is not involved in the process, so it is expected that the total cost of medicine to the hospital doctor is a decisive factor in the insurance company's calculation of the cost and the setting of the insurance price. ”

"However, for patients who have a better health care plan, such as the ACA, they don't have to pay as much for medical care.

In the spirit of no cure, patients will have doctors administer various medical methods to them in order to be free of disease.

Doctors, on the other hand, are in the psychology of practicing medicine defensively, for fear that patients will complain about their problems, and do more links in the treatment process, which is the so-called excessive practice of medicine. ”

Leon nodded, unlike other places, the medical system in the United States is privately owned, and doctors are paid high salaries, so they naturally have to bear the corresponding responsibilities.

Sebastian said: "The medical fever brought about by the ACA has caused the cost of medical care to skyrocket.

In addition, the strict requirements of the ACA for insurance companies have increased the burden on insurance companies to supervise and operate.

A large number of insurance companies have collapsed, forcing the remaining insurance companies to raise the price of medical insurance, which in turn has pushed the individual insurance market into serious disruption and is on the verge of collapse.

The end result is that insurance companies have collapsed, people have limited options to buy health insurance, the federal government deficit has been soaring, and the entire ACA bill has been heinous and the people have complained. ”

Sebastian said this, poured himself a glass of water, and said indifferently: "All this cannot be said to be the pot of the previous master of Guanhai, nor can it be said to be the pot of patients, doctors, and insurance companies.

More importantly, the private healthcare system as a whole is struggling to recover. ”

Speaking of this, Sebastian suddenly knocked on the table with his knuckles, and said in a deep voice: "The new Latino boss has been working hard to repeal the ACA bill recently.

However, anyone can see that if the private health care system in the United States is not fundamentally addressed, no amount of bills will only end up like the ACA, which is trapped in the old system of stacking beds and houses. ”

Li Ang gradually understood the real theme of the other party, and said noncommittally: "Until the advent of artificial organ replacement technology." ”

"That's right."

A smile flashed across Sebastian's old face, "Although the meme company has raised the price of the surgery very high, the true cost is quite low.

Cheap and efficient medical care is the key to solving the current health care difficulties of the federal government. ”

Li Ang thought for a moment, frowned and said, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Quite simply, on behalf of the Hellfire Club, I would like to partner with you to establish a new, absolute health care system on a federal scale."

Sebastian let out a breath of turbidity and said indifferently: "In this health insurance system, there are no other insurance companies, and there are no private hospitals.

All medical forces are concentrated under one system. Anyone, no matter who they are, needs to rely on the system for medical care. ”

"It can't be."

Li Ang said categorically: "The dispute between the donkey and the elephant behind the federal health care system is so far-reaching, and the internal disputes within the medical insurance system are so complicated.

Even though artificial organ replacement surgery has the ability to cure most diseases, it does not calm everything. ”

Sebastian smiled slightly, "Just because the meme company can't do it doesn't mean the Hellfire Club can't do it." ”

"The Hellfire Club was founded in England in the late 18th century, and today it has become one of the top organizations in high society.

It has offices in Boston, London, Los Angeles, Moscow, New York, Paris, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Berlin, Tokyo, and Seoul.

Its members include all walks of life, including the top elites in the political, business, military, and cultural fields.

"In short, it's an incredibly large multinational organization."

Sebastian exclaimed, "The purpose of my trip is to reach a partnership with you.

The sheer power of the Hellfire Club, combined with the memetic company's medical technology, can clear all obstacles.

The result is an unprecedented medical continuum. ”

Sebastian drank all the ice water in the cup, pursed his lips, and said leisurely,

"As I said at the beginning, the Hellfire Club wants to give you a chance."

"An opportunity to control the life, age, sickness and death of 7 billion people in the world."
