Chapter 487: The Real Director Fang (Seeking Subscriptions)

~14 min read 2,615 words

Hearing Fang Ziye's words, no one felt he was painting empty promises.

Whether it was the medical team or many in the nursing team, they all lowered their heads and chuckled softly.

In fact, discussing such substantive interest issues during handover is inappropriate; in clinical work, the first consideration should be the quality of patient diagnosis and treatment, not how much you will harvest as a doctor.

The actual situation is naturally that Fang Ziye's side has already completely handed over the lower limb mangled extremity and functional reconstruction surgeries — that is, the preliminary 'small-scale' clinical trials for two major research projects have already been very successful.

In September, they can successively follow up on the lower limb functional reconstruction cases from June and July and publish papers.

The case-related articles count as cluster-type case reports, from which corresponding theoretical analyses can also be derived; big data corresponding reports and so on, a whole series of articles will come out.

Even derived from this, many operational details, new understandings, etc., can all be published as papers.

Although these small papers are of little use to Fang Ziye, Fang Ziye's fellow trainees can pick them up to build up their own research foundations.

"Of course, these gains are not the most important; what's more important is that we will have more learning opportunities."

Fang Ziye said up to here, chuckling lightly: "Every learning opportunity is hard-won; I hope our department's professional master's students, standardized trainees, and PhDs alike can all learn a bit more."

"That way, after you graduate, you might just become hot commodities..."

"I have nothing else to say; everyone has worked hard, still need to pay attention to balancing work and rest — do work when it's time to work, and relax properly when it's time to relax."

"That's it, thank you Teacher Liu." In front of everyone, Fang Ziye still didn't call Liu Huanglong Director Liu, but addressed him as Teacher Liu.

……

Monday is Vice Professor Chen Fang's surgery day; Fang Ziye should have gone to follow ward rounds at the first opportunity after handover.

It's just that Fang Ziye had just finished handover and was coming out of the office when he was stopped by a phone call —

Chen Fang took this in stride; even without Fang Ziye, Liu Huanglong would lead the ward rounds, and the procession continued.

Liu Huanglong and Fang Ziye both span three groups; one is a Director, the other holds the identity of Chief Resident.

"Teacher Qi, is there something the matter calling so early?" Fang Ziye answered the phone and replied politely.

Teacher Qi is the person in charge of Zhongnan Hospital's Animal Experiment Middle School; currently, the operating rooms inside the Animal Experiment Center are often fully booked.

Fang Ziye's mangled extremity rabbit model contributed greatly; Fang Ziye can get a certain commission from it, which counts as patent usage fees.

"Doctor Fang, there is indeed a matter; on this side there is a person in charge of a relatively large animal experiment center in our Hubei Province, wanting to talk to you, Doctor Fang, about cooperation matters."

"Teaching matters should be broad and not hide clumsiness; he also wants to obtain your authorization for the animal experiment model, so that more surgeons can be accommodated for training and practice." Qi Honghai explained.

Fang Ziye listened, then directly pierced through: "Director Qi, is the other party here to make money, or to promote teaching and incidentally make money?"

These are two different matters.

If they're here to make money, Fang Ziye doesn't want to provoke that kind of fishy trouble, and can't be bothered to take responsibility for subsequent quality management.

But if the other party is here to promote teaching and also wants to earn a little money, that's fine — as long as they accept unified pricing with Fang Ziye's side, prioritize volume over price, everything is negotiable.

Fang Ziye certainly doesn't want the earned money to go into someone else's pocket while he carries the black pot on his own back.

For this, when negotiating cooperation with the Animal Experiment Center, Deng Yong specially invited a law firm's lawyer to consult and handle these matters.

"Doctor Fang, I'm not too clear on this! Doing business, making money is definitely the goal."

"The other party's strength is very strong, and they have even stronger ability to promote teaching; compared to our experiment center, they're better by who knows how many times." Qi Honghai replied.

"Doctor Fang, didn't you tell me before, if you wanted doctors nationwide to be able to do mangled extremity related surgeries?"

"Then I feel, finding this company is the most suitable..."

After hearing this, Fang Ziye's heart tightened slightly; he hesitated a moment then said: "Has the other party already arrived at the Animal Experiment Center?"

"Doctor Fang, actually, we are now waiting for you downstairs at the Orthopedics Building; see where it's convenient for you." Qi Honghai was also exceptionally respectful to Fang Ziye.

Although the rabbit model Fang Ziye provided isn't the biggest money-maker, it is unique — I have what others don't: a 'top-tier animal model'.

What concept is this? This is the concept of 'making a name'; in the future, if other labs want to do such animal models, they'll all have to mention our Zhongnan Hospital's Animal Experiment Center.

Fang Ziye is the patent holder, but the Animal Experiment Center where I am is the real, entrusted experiment center.

For this matter, the hospital has already been expanding the Animal Experiment Center; although some dedicated operating rooms were allocated to Orthopedics, it's also a form of the hospital's recognition of the Animal Experiment Center.

……

Fang Ziye went downstairs, saw Qi Honghai and the other two from the so-called company, smiled and shook hands, then walked toward the Functional Medicine Experimental Building.

After sitting down, Qi Honghai had long since arranged for tea to be prepared, and the Animal Experiment Center's Deputy Director Wang Qun was also there.

The slightly plump man smiled like a Maitreya: "Doctor Fang, these two are the Technical Engineer and General Manager from Bailin Biology under Guangbai Group."

"Director Wang, introductions have been made. We and Doctor Fang just chatted a bit." Technical Engineer Han Qiong replied.

What are you doing? Now is the time to discuss the main topic, not the time to show your presence.

The other General Manager Huang Liuyuan had an upright posture and was more smooth in dealing with people: "Engineer Han, Director Wang just arrived so he didn't know; everyone's just chatting casually."

"Doctor Fang, how do you consider our proposal? We came with sincerity."

"Mainly hoping Doctor Fang you can transfer the patent; our company will give you a very satisfactory price."

Fang Ziye heard this and looked at Huang Liuyuan: "Huang Zong, don't know how your company will handle pricing if you get this patent transfer?"

"I'm currently not very short of money." Fang Ziye emphasized.

One's patent is sometimes more like a child; how could one bear to sell it so easily? If not very short of money, and the other party's price isn't high enough, Fang Ziye couldn't be bothered to sell.

"Doctor Fang, sales-related issues needn't concern you; you do technology, commercial issues our company has a mature set of rules and regulations for."

"As for patent transfer fees, it will definitely satisfy you; our company discussed it, we plan to offer five hundred thousand..."

"Doctor Fang!" Huang Liuyuan was stunned; he had only quoted a price, didn't expect Fang Ziye to stand up and leave, and the standing up was extremely crisp and decisive, without any hesitation at all.

Huang Liuyuan hurriedly chased after: "Doctor Fang, don't be angry; if the price isn't suitable, we can talk again! ~"

Fang Ziye turned back: "No talk! I'm not short of money; I have plenty of money now."

"Food, clothing, housing, transport are all enough; I'm an ordinary person, saving a bit this life is enough."

Fang Ziye tilted his head to explain a sentence, then continued walking toward the elevator hall.

"Doctor Fang, don't be angry; doing business originally has give and take; price is all negotiable." Huang Liuyuan said.

Fang Ziye pressed the down elevator, solemnly: "Huang Zong, but you may not have figured it out; I'm not a businessman, your set of tricks I don't understand."

"I only know that you're treating me like a fool."

"Respect is mutual; those who respect others are respected in return."

"Don't talk to me about this, including your company — don't talk to me about this. If you absolutely must talk, then I might just go directly to President Chen to talk."

Huang Liuyuan still wanted to say something, but Fang Ziye replied directly: "You don't need to lecture me with grand principles either. In this world, there are plenty of people who hide things and don't reveal them; I'm not afraid of there being one more — me, Fang Ziye."

"Sorry, I have to go to the department for ward rounds; after rounds there are still many surgeries to do!"

The elevator happened to come down just then, and Fang Ziye squeezed inside.

Huang Liuyuan and Han Qiong both squeezed in as well, looking flustered; Han Qiong looked at Huang Liuyuan as if he were a stupid idiot.

Not until the elevator reached the first floor did Han Qiong say: "Doctor Fang, don't be angry. I'm also in the technical field, and I just feel that Doctor Fang, your animal experiment model should benefit more medical staff and patients."

"How about this, Doctor Fang — I don't understand either; you name the price, and after you name it we'll go back and report it."

"Manager Huang might have remembered the figure wrong just now, which caused the slip of the tongue; five hundred thousand really is a bit unsuitable."

Fang Ziye still walked toward the Orthopedics Building, glanced at Han Qiong, and then said: "No need to talk further; I'll talk directly to your leaders in a bit. Really, you guys stop following."

"What I've decided is impossible to negotiate again."

"Still that same saying: those who respect themselves are respected by others."

"Five hundred thousand — did you people treat me as a human?"

You don't even swindle a fool like that! Fang Ziye looked at Huang Liuyuan and walked rapidly toward the Orthopedics Building.

This is Zhongnan Hospital, Fang Ziye's home turf; whether it's one-on-one or a group fight, Fang Ziye doesn't fear Huang Liuyuan in the slightest, and he doesn't fear other things either.

No other reason — this is the confidence his two Masters gave him, because this is Zhongnan Hospital, and behind it stands Han City University!

If Huang Liuyuan had the ability to "subvert" Zhongnan Hospital, he wouldn't need to come talk to him; with a single word, there would probably be too many people running around for him.

After Fang Ziye left, Han Qiong looked at Huang Liuyuan, then at the departing Han Qiong, and complained in a low voice: "Don't know what President Huang you were thinking just now; I can't figure it out! ~"

Han Qiong walked away.

Huang Liuyuan looked at Fang Ziye, then at the departing Han Qiong, and started muttering curses under his breath...

"What the hell kind of temper is this? Really fucking hard to serve."

Huang Liuyuan actually just wanted performance; if he could get this patent transfer fee at a low price, the markup in between could let him pocket a huge portion, and for the company it would also be a major achievement.

He might even advance further from the position of Sales Department General Manager; however, Fang Ziye's reaction exceeded his understanding of most people — he simply doesn't talk to you about any simple principles...

If you dare play him, he directly flips the table.

When Fang Ziye returned to the Inpatient General Office to rest, he watched his Knowledge Points basic income change from the previous one thousand or so per day to the current one thousand seven or eight hundred, with a trend heading toward two thousand or so.

Fang Ziye felt more and more that perhaps he really should cooperate with that Chen Guangbai.

If the teaching of mangled extremity surgery can be promoted to more people, Fang Ziye would be able to achieve "Knowledge Points" freedom to a certain extent.

Then he could add points however he wanted — wouldn't that be an extremely happy thing?

The current timing is relatively mature.

After hesitating for about five minutes again, Fang Ziye dialed Chen Guangbai's WeChat call.

When in Enshi, Fang Ziye had added Chen Guangbai's personal WeChat; at that time, Doctor Lao Chen brought Chen Guangbai to handle matters.

They knew Fang Ziye was a local from Enshi and very capable, so they added WeChat.

Personal WeChat is quite private information, so Fang Ziye's WeChat call was picked up before long.

"Doctor Fang, how come you have time to call me?" Little President Chen's hearty laughter came through; you could tell his mood was very good right now.

Fang Ziye then explained the morning's events in full, and then said: "President Chen, I know it's not very suitable for me to personally disturb you with this matter, but I feel that if we want more peers to quickly access this mangled extremity technique."

"We can only ask for President Chen's help, because you said before that you have your own animal experiment centers in important major cities nationwide."

"If there's a mature technical design, it can be put into use immediately, benefiting colleagues in those cities — for example, Magic Capital, Rongcheng, Jingdu, Sha City, etc."

"President Chen, my proposal is just my personal unilateral idea; I hope it's not reckless nonsense that doesn't know right from wrong."

Upon hearing this, Chen Guangbai immediately replied: "No no no, Doctor Fang, you being willing to call me directly is already giving me, Chen Guangbai, face."

"For the medical cause, I actually still have passion; since you, the patent holder, aren't afraid of not making money, what would I be afraid of?"

"However, to avoid losses, I can guarantee that even in Jingdu and Magic Capital, the price increase per animal model won't exceed ten percent — this is already my limit."

"Doctor Fang, you also know, after the Enshi incident, I just feel that people are all selfish; water too clear has no fish — you have to give people a bit of a prospect..."

Sometimes, what you give is good, and at first others think it's very good, but they won't necessarily keep thinking it's good.

There's a possibility of backlash.

"Thank you, President Chen, really trouble you." Fang Ziye answered with a smile.

This feeling is actually very bad — letting others use the patent, yet still having to thank them — but Fang Ziye currently needs such a platform.

"Doctor Fang, you're being polite!"

"Actually many times I've wanted to invite Doctor Fang to chat together, but never had the chance; since this matter has brought us into direct contact."

"A chance meeting is better than an arranged one; just today, just me and you, Doctor Fang, the two of us, near your unit, let's have afternoon tea together?"

"Today I only have time for one afternoon tea." Chen Guangbai asked.

"Then I'll wait for President Chen's call then? Today I only have one surgery, should be done before one in the afternoon." Fang Ziye replied.

After hanging up, Fang Ziye let his hands hang down, closed his eyes, feeling that he had bravely taken the first big step outward...
