  Chapter 571 Patent Shareholding in Nipro

  Even if Chen Qi sees through his little thoughts, Nimura Kaito will kill him and won't admit it. Anyway, a businessman has a thick skin, and I'm not embarrassed but someone else.

"Hehe, Dr. Chen, where are you thinking? We Nipro are your good friends. When did any unpleasant incidents happen after we have cooperated for so many years? Hehehe, in this way, I can convey your opinion to the board of directors, Dr. Chen. Get back to you as soon as possible."

  Kaito Futura is only a professional manager. The decision-making power of the company is in the hands of the board of directors and the chairman. He is not qualified to make decisions.

  Chen Qi expressed his understanding, as long as he had been warned, it was impossible to tear up his face with the God of Wealth, it was far from necessary.

   "In this way, Mr. Ercun, please help me convey my request to your board of directors, that is, I hope you can invest in an endoscopic instrument production plant in Huaguo, and the location will be in my hometown, Yuezhong City."

   "Nani?"

  This request caught Nimura Kaito a little off guard, and his mind was full of question marks.

   "No way, you also know that I am also an official in China. Our country is vigorously developing the economy, and I also have the task of attracting investment. I hope Nipro can help.

  Vietnam City is an open coastal city with very attractive economic policies. We still have a large number of cheap technicians and workers. Presumably, Nipro will surely achieve good economic benefits when you set up a factory in Vietzhong. What do you think? "

  In fact, Chen Qi really doesn't value these investment-attracting tasks, but he also has his own difficulties and long-term plans.

  If Chen Qi and Nipro really reach a cooperation agreement, wait for Chen Qi, a "traitor", to really take out some advanced equipment for Nipro to apply for patents and produce.

  So it is conceivable that Nipro will definitely make a fortune by relying on its monopoly, and the price of endoscopes will definitely not be able to beat.

   When Huaguo imports endoscopy equipment from Nipro, it will need to be slaughtered by Xiaotian.

  The biggest possibility that the endoscope cannot be afforded is simply not to buy it, or to buy less.

  Chen Qi can ignore other countries, but China is his motherland after all. As a doctor, Chen Qi always wants these advanced instruments to benefit more common people.

  As an insider in the industry, Chen Qi understands Huaguo's plight better.

In 2022 before his rebirth, the country has been officially recognized as a developed country by the United States after decades of development. We also broadcast "Amazing My Country" every day on our own TV, and even predict that it will catch up in a few years America.

   Then we should be regarded as rich and rich, right?

  However, there are still less than 25,000 sets of medical endoscope equipment owned by domestic medical institutions at all levels, and the number that can be used normally is even lower.

  The number of people who can enjoy endoscopic diagnosis and treatment in China is only 30 million each year.

  This is unimaginable for a country with a population of over 1.4 billion.

  This means that each endoscopic device now requires one operation per day on average. For endoscopic devices that require precision decontamination and maintenance, the actual time that can be used for diagnosis and treatment is completely unsatisfactory.

  In fact, in the disinfection and cleaning of endoscopes, the mainstream sterilization methods, such as ethylene oxide sterilization, take up to a week.

  Endoscopic machines have to be out of service for long periods of time, and hospitals usually cannot wait for such a long time.

  Though low-temperature plasma sterilization greatly shortens the time to 1-2 hours, plasma sterilization equipment is often expensive. Due to the above reasons, the disinfection and sterilization of endoscope equipment has become a very troublesome thing.

  In order to use endoscopes as soon as possible, some hospitals do not do enough cleaning and disinfection of endoscopes. The small and long open channel structure of the endoscope itself also provides a cross-infection environment for microorganisms, secretions, and blood residues.

  This is another very headache hospital infection problem, which will also cause additional harm to patients.

  Not only is there a lack of endoscopic equipment in China, but there is also a serious shortage of endoscopists. At present, there are less than 40,000 endoscopists in China.

  Based on China's population base and the proportion of high-risk groups, only about 400,000 digestive endoscopists are needed to meet the domestic market demand, and the number of existing endoscopists is only about 2,000.

  In addition, the number of equipment is far from meeting the needs of domestic gastroenteroscopy diagnosis and treatment, and the training period for endoscopists is long, and the shortage of digestive endoscopists restricts the development of the industry.

  If you add other departments, domestic endoscopists have the same shortfall as endoscopic equipment.

  Why is there a shortage of endoscopic equipment? After all, their equipment is too expensive to afford.

  Chen Qi's idea is very simple. It is best to lure Nipro to build an endoscopy factory in Huaguo, which will be exclusively for the domestic market at a lower price than foreign countries.

  He, Chen Qi, should hurry up to train endoscopists. By then, there will be enough equipment and enough doctors. Domestic endoscopists will be able to catch up with the level of developed countries and seek benefits for more patients.

  Including future equipment and instruments related to "laparoscopic surgery" can also refer to this model.

   The budget for Chen Qi and his party in Japan is to stay in Japan for 7 days, and then go to Houston in the United States.

   In the remaining 2 days, Chen Qi originally planned to take his wife, younger siblings, and students to other cities in Japan for a simple stroll.

   As a result, his endoscopic surgery caused a sensation in the Japanese medical circle, so for the next two days, Chen Qi was invited by several large Japanese hospitals to do teaching surgery every day.

  Although he took a lot of labor fees, Chen Qi was exhausted.

   Until the night before leaving Japan, Chen Qi was secretly invited to the Nipro headquarters.

  In order to obtain all patent authorizations and monopolize the endoscopy business exclusively, Nipro finally agreed to all of Chen Qi's requests.

  1. Nipro helps Chen Qi to apply for a global patent on behalf of Chen Qi, and the patent right belongs to Chen Qi.

   2. Chen Qi exclusively granted all the patents on endoscopic instruments and accessories to Nipro Corporation for use for 20 years. Chen Qi obtained 2.5% equity of Japan Nipro Corporation.

  3. Japan Nipro Co., Ltd. invested 100 million US dollars to establish a wholly-owned enterprise in Yuezhong City, Huaguo, to produce endoscopic equipment and medicines.

  4. Chen Qi is the exclusive endorser of Nipro products, and the annual endorsement fee is 3 million US dollars. (1 million more than expected)

   And Nipro promised to provide a full set of endoscopic equipment to Yuezhong City People's Hospital for free, and the requirement is that all endoscopic teaching operations in Yuezhong City People's Hospital must use Nipro's equipment.

  With the cooperation of the lawyer team, both parties secretly signed the above agreement.

   As a "traitor", Chen Qi used the technological products developed by the country to obtain his own interests.

  As a second-rate manufacturer of endoscopes, Nipro, relying on the endoscope accessories provided by Chen Qi, may become the No. 1 leader.

  For Chen Qi and Nipro, both think this is a win-win situation.

  In fact, the real situation should be that Chen Qi won alone.

  What state secrets, what secret research and development, what endoscopy team, there is a hair! Some are Chen Qi's own golden fingers.

  Using the endoscope equipment invented by the Japanese in later generations, the Japanese today corrupted such a share, and this business has made a lot of money.

  The reason why Chen Qi did not ask for patent fees was because he was unable to supervise and grasp the financial status of foreign pharmaceutical companies.

  Capital is greedy, immoral, and has no legal boundaries.

   At that time, people will only have as much money as they say, and there will be no room for Chen Qi to bargain. This is too unsafe.

   Just like film and television investment, a movie is obviously a hit at the box office and makes a lot of money.

  But at the last settlement, hey, it was actually a loss, and the books were done beautifully, so you can't find any faults.

  Investors can only knock their teeth out and swallow their stomachs in the end. There is no way at all, and they can't win the lawsuit.

  So Chen Qi's plan is to buy shares in Nipro through patents, and then take dividends every year as a shareholder.

  Never mind that Nipro's current market value is only 10 billion U.S. dollars, by 2022, Nipro's market value will reach 340 billion U.S. dollars.

  2.5% of 340 billion, do the math, that's 8.5 billion US dollars, what kind of bicycle do you want?

  After the two parties signed the contract, Naoto Mitsui, chairman of Nipro Corporation, personally met Chen Qi.

   Hearing the name of the chairman, one knows that this is a member of the Mitsui consortium, a high-ranking figure in Japan, and the godfather of all female stars.

   "Dr. Chen, now you are a shareholder of Nipro, and we will be a family in the future. You can't hide any new technologies you have."

  Chen Qi also lightly clinked his wine glass with the old man from Mitsui:

   "There is an old saying in Huaguo that doing business requires win-win cooperation. As a shareholder of Nipro, I will definitely consider Nipro's interests first in terms of endoscopic surgery, so please don't worry about this, Mr. Mitsui."

  In fact, Chen Qi's subtext is that Nipro will eat the cake of endoscopy, but endoscopy is only a small part of Chen Qi's future career, and it cannot even be ranked in the top three.

  So don't expect Chen Qi to work for Nipro.

  But this cannot be said now.

   Sure enough, Naoto Mitsui was very satisfied with Chen Qi's attitude after hearing this. Of course, only he himself knows whether he really thinks highly of this "traitor".

  After the trip to get rich in Japan, Chen Qi and his party embarked on a trip to the United States.

  The next battle is Houston.

  He is no stranger to the city of Houston, because Yao Ming used to play basketball for the Houston Rockets, so he can hear calluses in his ears.

  In fact, what Chinese people don't know is that the most amazing thing about Houston is not basketball, but that the city has the world's largest medical center.

   Texas Medical Center TMC (TexasMedicalCenter).

   It should be noted that this medical center is not "a hospital", but consists of 54 medical-related institutions.

  Includes 21 hospitals, 8 specialty medical institutions, 8 academic and research institutions, 4 medical schools, 7 nursing schools, 3 public health organizations, 2 pharmacies, and 1 dental school.

   Covering an area of ​​1,346 acres, with about 300 buildings and a total construction area of ​​4.5 million square meters, it is the largest medical building complex in the world. The total number of employees exceeds 100,000, and a total of 9,200 hospital beds.

  Having the world's largest children's hospital and the world's largest cancer hospital, it receives 8 million medical seekers each year and performs 180,000 operations annually, equivalent to one operation every 3 minutes.

   It can be said to be a behemoth integrating industry, education and research.

  When Chen Qi and his group of 20 people visited this huge medical center under the guidance of the tour guide, they were shocked beyond measure.

  Even if Chen Qi is a reborn person, even if he sees too many big hospitals, dozens of top medical institutions like this form a "medical city", which also makes Chen Qi shout "Wow~~~" from time to time.

   Not to mention those master students.

  Among so many people, Professor Zhang Weizhong is the calmest one. He came to the United States for a year of study and visited the Texas Medical Center.

  Of course, everyone's visit is just to watch the flowers on horseback, because Chen Qi doesn't have any old friends or connections in Texas Medical Center.

   This is why he visited a local tour group in Houston, rather than being accompanied by a professional hospital insider.

  But Chen Qi came to the United States not just for tourism, he still has important things to do.

  The 1989 World Congress of Gastroenterology will be held in Texas Medical Center, both Chen Qi and Lan Lijuan were invited to attend.

  Furthermore, according to the suggestion of the former president of the society, Professor Grace, Chen Qi felt that his wife might get a "official job" in the International Gastroenterology Society.

  If Lan Lijuan can take over, it means that the theory of Helicobacter pylori has been recognized by the mainstream medical profession.

  That also means that the proton pump inhibitor omeprazole invented by AstraZeneca will become the mainstream drug for gastrointestinal diseases, and the benefits involved in this are too great.

   It was full of games, and it was beyond the control of young doctors like Chen Qi and Lan Lijuan.

   As for Chen Qi himself, he doesn't think he can get anything. After all, his papers on endoscopic surgery have not been published yet, and have not been recognized by the mainstream.

  After returning to the hotel, Chen Qi handed over a bank card to Zhang Weizhong:

"Professor Zhang, in the next week, Lijuan and I will go to the hotel arranged by the committee members of the World Gastroenterology Congress, so we won't go with you. I will trouble you to take these students and my younger siblings with you for activities in the United States." .

Professor Dunn and Professor Kerry of the Mayo Clinic are my old friends. They will show you around, and you can also go to New York and Washington for a tour. Just pay attention to safety, and don't be reluctant to spend money. Now brothers I am not short of money. "

  Chen Qi and Lan Lijuan are both newcomers to the WCOG conference, but they are not qualified to bring people into the venue to observe, so the two parties have to act separately.

  Zhang Weizhong took the card and said with a smile:

   "Don't worry, I have stayed in the United States for a year anyway, and I am quite familiar with it here."

  Chen Qi and Lan Lijuan came out of the hotel and went to the Hua Guo delegation to report.

  The World Society of Gastroenterology (WGO) is a semi-official organization, so in addition to top doctors, delegations from various countries usually come to participate in the meeting.

  Hua Guo also formed a 10-member delegation, all of whom came from domestic experts in the field of gastroenterology, and their names all appeared in medical textbooks.

  For example, Professor Zhang Wanfeng from Renji Hospital, Professor Tong Shanggao from Xijing Hospital, Professor Liang Chengwu from Union Hospital, Professor Cheng Bangwu from Nanfang Hospital, etc.

  Compared with these old professors, Chen Qi and Lan Lijuan, two young doctors from small prefecture-level hospitals, are really eye-catching.
