Great Power

Chapter 194 We Are Doctors

"That's the time for Doctor Kafran's dinner—"

Walton smiled at Cavran next to him, and the latter opened his mouth to Zheng Jianguo: "Our OMGE is a non-profit organization. A small part of the operating funds comes from membership dues, and most of them come from charitable donations. If there is a gap, a charity dinner will be held, and those rich people are still very happy to attend our kind of dinner—"

"The charity dinner organized by the World Society of Gastroenterology——"

The name of his own organization flashed in his mind, and Zheng Jianguo also understood what Kaflan meant by what he meant. Compared with the dinner hosted by a pure charity organization, the charity dinner hosted by the doctors was more attractive. Power, especially in America where doctors belong to the upper class, I am afraid that no one will risk offending the doctor and not attend.

What do the richest fear most?

Some people say that they are most afraid of not having money, but in Zheng Jianguo's view, what rich people are most afraid of is the countdown of life when the money is still there. Then refer to the fact that medical resources are originally scarce resources, so spend a small amount of money to buy the whole society. It is also a transaction that makes a profit without losing money.

Of course, in Zheng Jianguo’s opinion, the nature of this dinner is a bit of a robbery. Fortunately, it’s familiar to me after having been here for so long. Since I personally attended this kind of gathering last time, I also know that the rich will take the opportunity to talk. On business: "Well, you guys also know that I have some money—"

"Zheng, it's better not to be like this~"

Kafran shook her head without hesitation, and a pair of brown eyes fell on Zheng Jianguo's face and said: "We are doctors, no matter how much money we have, we are also doctors, not the rich and profitable business man, especially like you. This makes money by luck.

If you participate in this kind of charity dinner and donate once, you will soon receive countless charity dinner invitations, and if one of your dinners does not arrive, these will become the handle for some bad media to attack you. So don't think about spending money on charity dinners.

Of course, the main reason is that you will become a doctor in the future. I heard that you need to obtain a specialist doctor's license. If you do so, you will unknowingly offend some colleagues.

For example, you and I attended an invitation meeting at the same time, but you donated 10,000 US dollars. I should donate or shouldn’t donate. If I donate, should I look at you again, but even if I donate 10,000, others will only Saying that you set an example will prevent me from feeling good about you—"

"Zheng, we are doctors. It is the job of saving the dying and healing the wounded. If you take the money out to donate, it will offend people, and in our circle, it is also very important to represent the harmony among colleagues, because Our doctors all need to cooperate and cooperate to complete the treatment of patients."

Walton said with a serious face that Zheng Jianguo had to nod his head to show that he was educated. It seems that this group of doctors not only divided the money clearly, but also clearly divided their work responsibilities: "Thank you, I’m still relatively young now. Although I was lucky enough to have my current grades, I’m still relatively immature about things other than studying—"

Kavran quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, Zheng, your luck is also because of your good observation. This is the case with Helicobacter pylori in gastrointestinal diseases, and the same is true for the atomic-level graphite layer in solid physics. It's luck, but real ability!"

Zheng Jianguo could hear the sincerity in Kafran’s tone. Of course, his previous words were also self-effacing. After all, he was the only one in the world who knew the real situation. I remembered that the original owner was an international friend. There is no psychological burden on the face to admit it.

After talking about what should be said, Kavlan and Walton sat for a meeting and got up to leave. Zheng Jianguo followed to the door and watched the four get into the Land Rover car, and waved his hand to watch the car leave. Going back to the residence to find the pathology and continue to gnaw.

With the experience of the first stage of the exam, Zheng Jianguo now knows that his shortcoming is still medical English, and he suffers from the misunderstanding of certain abbreviations and spellings. Now that he knows his shortcomings, he is also thinking about it. The morning and night are also back, so it's almost impossible to chase after the bones.

Until another snow fell, Charlie, who was a little pale, knocked on his door: "The price and location are all selected, Brookline 78 North Kent Street, less than ten minutes’ drive from Harvard Medical School. How does it feel to be less than 30 minutes away from Harvard University?"

"It's not cheap over there, right?"

Zheng Jianguo let people into the house and said that Charlie felt the enthusiasm and looked at the air conditioner next to him. He couldn't help shrugging his shoulders with a smile: "Big Boston doesn't have cheap houses, especially the ones that are closer to the university town to the north. It’s been less than a year since the 2,234-foot refurbishment was completed. The homeowner lost money when the price of gold fell a few days ago.

On the seventh day after Zheng Jianguo’s gold contract was liquidated, the price of gold finally reached a historical high of US$850, but it did not last for half an hour and then jumped straight, and fell below US$800 to 797 on the same day. The dollar mark.

Then the next day’s turbulence adjusted for one day, and on the third day it fell directly to 713 US dollars. At this time, TV and newspapers were talking about this, Zheng Jianguo naturally did not know: "I know, because air conditioning uses electricity. Big family—"

Coming to the United States for such a long time, Zheng Jianguo found that there are air conditioners in schools and laboratories, but ordinary people rarely have air conditioners installed in their homes. The most direct reason is that the price of residential electricity in the United States is twice that of industrial electricity. So most ordinary people seldom pretend to be. Of course, there is another reason why they are not used to it: "Really give me a house?"

"There is another place at 53 St. Paul Street, but that house is a bit old. If you want it, you need to buy it and rebuild it to live in. But it is only a few tens of meters from the Charles River, which can be regarded as between Harvard Medical School and Harvard University. It’s about ten minutes and less than twenty minutes. Of course, the area is a bit small, 1,566 feet, and the price is about the same—"

The oncoming air conditioner was a little hot. Charlie unbuttoned his coat and took off the hat on his forehead while talking. Zheng Jianguo had already started putting on his clothes next to him. He nodded with a smile on his face. It’s on St. Paul’s Street. It just so happens that I’m not used to living in a wooden house.

"Well, let's go to St. Paul Street, do you want me to recommend a contractor for you?"

Hearing Zheng Jianguo’s reasons, Charlie also knew that St. Paul Street is closer to the University Town than Kent Street. To the north is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, to the east is Boston University, and to the south is Harvard Medical School. Although there is no university to the west, There is a large medical center composed of four hospitals headed by St. Elizabeth's Hospital.

Considering that Zheng Jianguo does not know which hospital he will go to for internship, this position is really ideal, of course, the shortcomings are also obvious: "I won't pay for the renovation cost—"

"Of course I won't let you out."

Zheng Jianguo quickly said that he is not a troublesome person, so he said, "Your contractor friend is reliable or not?"

"Absolutely reliable. You can dig a bunker without any problems. Of course, you need to waterproof it not far from the river."

Charlie followed Zheng Jianguo out the door brightly. The latter curled his neck and said with white air, "It's not a bunker. I just want to work hard on the doors and windows. Can bulletproof glass be made?"

"Yes, of course the price is up to you."

Charlie’s face was a bit stiff. Of course his bunker was joking before, but hearing the bulletproof glass now means that Zheng Jianguo’s vigilance is not generally high. This may be the aftereffects of the shooting incident. Maybe he really has some thoughts.

With this thought in his mind, Charlie took him to the Mercedes-Benz, and after he started the car proficiently, he listened to him and said: "Of course, if you are not so passionate, I can buy it myself. After all, I live in school. , You can’t guard against thieves for a thousand days, then the police should trouble me."

"I don't believe this unless you do something, such as carrying contraband, speeding, and affecting others—"

Thanks to the investigation over the past year, Charlie has a better understanding of Zheng Jianguo’s character. Sometimes his personality is taciturn like an introvert, but he is more comfortable than most Americans when facing media reporters. In addition to being vigilant like a delusion of persecution, he is also a rule-based person: "But if you have a little trouble like this, some of my relationships may play some role—"

"I know that your agents are very popular, but why do I feel that you are a little different today?"

Sitting in the co-pilot and looking at the luxurious decorations in the car, Zheng Jianguo said and took a look at Charlie, only to see that he was skillfully manipulating the car and shrugged: "You know that we as agents will face all kinds of things. Customers, what they have in common is that they have a little bit of spare money. After your gold contract was closed last time, I suggested several customers with good relationships. Some of them accepted, rejected and ridiculed--"

"You didn't reveal to those customers that it was me?"

Zheng Jianguo understood a little bit. Those who listened to Charlie’s suggestion made money regardless of whether they made more or less, while those who rejected and ridiculed his suggestion were obviously beaten up by the plummeting market as a church person and could protect customers Privacy is the most basic red line in all industries: "You should know that this cannot be done."

"Of course not. Then I would go to jail. Even if I want to continue to maintain a good relationship with your big client, I would not do this kind of thing. I just told them a suggestion, and then made up a reason. I gave them a prevarication, and of course I took credit for closing your position as my suggestion."

Charlie said with a smile, a pair of eyes fixed on Zheng Jianguo's face and he was relieved: "I feel that persuading like this will increase credibility."

"It doesn't matter, I thought the whole world knew that I sold gold to buy oil~ Oh, the price of oil went up by 38 cents."

Zheng Jianguo said with a smile at Charlie, who of course knew what he was talking about: "Considering that the base in your account is 110 million barrels, it means that for every dollar increase in oil prices, you will make a profit of 110 million dollars, which is better. Calculation, of course, does not include your principal."

"No, I am not worried about how much money I have made, but about how much I will suffer if there is a callback. Now I can withstand the loss of 38 cents. The higher the increase, the more the contract will be for me. Security, of course, the same goes for turning it over, as long as it rises."

With a smile on his face, Zheng Jianguo sighed in his heart. He didn't want to go so aggressively in his original plan. However, after a few years of recollection, it was the Soviet-Fu Ahan War that had already begun and the Iraq-Two Wars at the end of the year. , As for the silver, it was purely to follow Fan Dailin for a ride, and then it caught the good market for gold and oil.

Of course, Zheng Jianguo, who holds more than one hundred million barrels of oil contracts, is not sighing for failing to think of other opportunities to make money. Since his rebirth, he has always wanted to do more comprehensively to face the future.

Thinking of the untouchable future, Zheng Jianguo actually didn't know the real reason for his sigh, because he had lost the arrogant mentality unique to the rebirth-I know what the future is like, you don't know.

Fortunately, Zheng Jianguo had a lot of things at the moment. He followed Charlie to the 78th house to finalize the purchase agreement. After completing the formalities, he had a meal. He also returned to the teachers’ dormitory after feeling Charlie’s sincerity. Unexpectedly, there were two door gods squatting at the door. After seeing him appear, one of them stood up: "We will starve to death if you don't come again."

"No, I waited until after 9 o'clock in the morning to go out. Didn't you come by long-distance bus?"

Seeing Zhao Liangliang's face turned pale with cold, Zheng Jianguo quickly walked to the dormitory to open the door and turn on the air conditioner. Then he turned around and saw that he was in front of the boiling water bottle, flipping a cup and starting to pour water, he couldn't help looking at the river road beside him: " Brother Jiang, are you now able to fly on a plane if you change shotguns?"

"Yes, the shotgun can be replaced by the plane, and a new leader is more compassionate to the people below. This is not because I found the opportunity to buy the cheapest round-trip ticket at a discount a few days ago, but I can come if I want to come in the future, I have to report in advance. Plan to have someone to book the air ticket——"

Zhao Liangliang poured two cups of hot tea and handed it to Jiang Lu who was talking. The latter took a sip and snorted and looked at Zheng Jianguo curiously: "They say that someone else in China has published the paper on The Lancet?"

"Tao Ye, my graduate student, and now the actual head of the Biological Laboratory of Qi Provincial Medical College, this research can be considered to be done with me, so she and I are tied for the first author——"

Zheng Jianguo saw that the two of them were so invisible, so he took off the down jacket and went to the coffee machine to receive a cup of coffee. He turned around and turned on the TV and said: "The content of the research is to confirm the infection mode of Helicobacter pylori. Remember to wash your hands frequently in the future, that stuff went from the mouth to the stomach—"
