Chapter 456 Medical Corruption
Qi Tongwei wrote down in detail what Yang Haiqing said with a serious expression, and quickly thought about how to fundamentally solve such problems in order to completely prevent similar situations from happening again.
After careful consideration, he decided to take a two-pronged approach.
On the one hand, we started to improve the relevant systems and regulatory mechanisms, and on the other hand, we immediately dispatched a working group to conduct comprehensive and detailed inspections in various medical and health institutions.
However, these are issues that need to be considered later. The most important thing at present is to explore the research and development of specific cancer drugs. Once this drug is successfully developed, pharmaceutical companies will undergo revolutionary changes.
So Qi Tongwei put aside his mental burden and began to ask about the research and development of special effects for cancer.
"Secretary Qi, my family's prescription is traditional Chinese medicine, and we basically follow the principle of one dose per person and one disease per person. It is still a bit difficult to develop it into a Chinese patent medicine." Yang Haiqing said with a frown.
"Mr. Yang, can you tell me what difficulties we still face in developing specific cancer drugs?" Qi Tongwei asked.
Yang Haiqing thought for a moment and said, "First, we need support from government policies and the participation of scientific research talents, and second, financial support. As long as these two conditions are met, other problems are minor issues."
After listening to Yang Haiqing's words, Qi Tongwei understood that this was not a big deal.
He then explained, "Mr. Yang, how about this? The government, the investment company, and Huichuntang will cooperate to establish a pharmaceutical company. The government will provide the land, the investment company will provide the money, and you will provide the formula. You will be in charge of the overall research and development of a special cancer drug."
Qi Tongwei was planning to let Gao Xiaoqin join in. If the government and Huichuntang simply cooperated, once he stepped down and left Handong, he was afraid that the company would be eaten up by certain officials without leaving a trace.
If the three companies cooperate, Gao Xiaoqin Investment Company holds the majority and has management rights, the above problems will basically not arise.
However, official participation is also necessary, otherwise it will face a joint boycott from major pharmaceutical companies and hospitals across the country. With the government's participation, Qi Tongwei will have an excuse to support at a critical moment.
"I can't do it. I can only treat patients. I don't understand research and development at all." Yang Haiqing refused hurriedly. He could treat patients but not do research and development.
Qi Tongwei glanced at Yang Jian who was standing not far from him, and said with an idea: "How about this? Yang Jian will be responsible for the specific management work, and you will be the R&D consultant. The R&D director will be found from colleges and universities."
"Okay." Yang Haiqing looked at his son who was eager to try and nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, Qi Tongwei focused on asking Mr. Yang some questions about health preservation. As for the specific cooperation agreement, his subordinates would discuss it, and he also needed to contact Gao Xiaoqin.
After staying in Huichuntang for more than an hour, Qi Tongwei and his party went to Tiancheng Group.
Tiancheng Group has now been taken over by the government and has become a Handong provincial enterprise.
Because nearly half of the management team has been arrested, the company is still in a state of panic and is in a semi-shutdown state.
The new general manager was a former vice president of a state-owned enterprise. He had extensive management experience, but had never managed a company with assets worth hundreds of billions. Coupled with the special circumstances of Tiancheng Group, he was a little out of place for a while.
"Secretary Qi, it's my problem. The rectification progress is too slow." Manager Pang Shuai said in fear.
Qi Tongwei waved his hand and said to him: "Now is not the time to pursue responsibility. Tiancheng Group has many problems, but in my opinion, the biggest problem is people's hearts.
The first thing you need to do is to calm people down and tell all employees that the investigation of Tiancheng Group has ended so that everyone can rest assured.
Then you have to promote a group of old employees who are not appreciated for their talents. Only by inspiring everyone's fighting spirit can the company survive. "After saying this, Qi Tongwei, under the leadership of Pang Shuai, carried out a comprehensive and detailed inspection of Tiancheng Group.
After some in-depth research and analysis, Qi Tongwei has a preliminary plan in mind on how to revitalize Tiancheng Group. He believes that as long as he follows the steps, it will not be difficult to achieve profitability.
As for returning to the peak period, we still have to wait, at least two or three years.
After having a working lunch in the afternoon, Qi Tongwei and his team set off on their return journey without stopping and headed straight for Jingzhou.
On the way, Qi Tongwei contacted Gao Xiaoqin, told her about the situation of Huichuntang, and asked her to go to Yi County tomorrow to finalize a specific cooperation agreement with Yang Haiqing and his son, leaving 20% of the equity to the government.
After they have reached an agreement, they will sign a final cooperation agreement with me, and then we can announce the establishment of a pharmaceutical company, but this pharmaceutical company will definitely encounter many obstacles from competitors.
Upon hearing that there was a prescription for curing cancer, Gao Xiaoqin excitedly said that she would go to Huichuntang tonight and early tomorrow morning to sign the first draft of the preliminary cooperation.
After hanging up the phone, Qi Tongwei leaned back in his chair and took a short rest, but his mind was still full of thoughts about the subsequent work plan.
When the vehicle arrived in Jingzhou, night had already fallen quietly. Fortunately, everyone was tired after a long day and went home.
The next morning, Qi Tongwei got up early and went to the office, and asked his secretary Liu Zhaojun to notify Lu Shuyue, secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, to come and see him.
Soon, Lu Shuyue walked into Qi Tongwei's office led by secretary Liu Zhaojun.
After the two exchanged a few brief pleasantries, Qi Tongwei said with a serious expression: "Comrade Shu Yue, this time I came to you about the issues concerning medical and health institutions." Qi Tongwei then repeated Yang Haiqing's words.
"Even if you didn't tell me, I would still come to you to report. Please take a look at this document." Lu Shuyue handed Qi Tongwei a document.
Qi Tongwei took it and looked at it. It was also about medical and health institutions. It said that some of the inspection equipment in many hospitals did not belong to the hospitals but to some companies.
They signed an agreement with the hospital, and the contract company paid the hospital a small amount of rental fee.
In order to make money, companies reach cooperation with attending physicians and receive commissions for every prescription. Some doctors with low moral standards have become corrupted for money and prescribe examination orders indiscriminately.
They would even do an MRI or enhanced CT scan on patients with a cold. They are so shameless just to make money.
"It seems that the problems in medical institutions are very serious and must be taken seriously." Qi Tongwei put down the investigation report with a serious expression.
"That's right, Secretary Qi, can you imagine that? I did some research and found that only four hospitals in Handong are profitable, and the rest are losing money."
Lu Shuyue really couldn't believe it. The hospital's salaries were paid by the government, and their expenses were just drug expenses (the equipment was contracted out), so how could they still be making a loss?
In Qi Tongwei's opinion, the two industries in the world that are least likely to suffer losses are education and medical care. Now he couldn't believe it when he heard that almost all hospitals in Handong were in a loss-making state.
There must be something fishy going on here, and it must be a big one.
“It seems that this unhealthy trend must be stopped.
I suggest that within the next six months, your discipline inspection department should enter the medical and health institutions to conduct in-depth investigations and thoroughly investigate the malpractices there." Qi Tongwei thought for a moment and said.
"Yes, Secretary Qi, I will arrange it later." Lu Shuyue quickly agreed.
