Break out of the courtyard

"I got it!" Zhang Heping took a pair of bowls and chopsticks, moved a round stool, and sat between Director Zhao and Director Li of Xuanwu Hospital. He smiled and said, "Tell me, you may not be able to do it."

Zhang Heping saw that the deans and directors at the table were all looking at him, and said with a smile: "The price of a 3.0T MRI machine is 3000 million magnesium yuan per unit. All orders for this year are exported."

"3000 million magnesium yuan? So expensive!" Dean Xie of the Third Hospital exclaimed.

Director Li of the nearby Xuanwu Hospital also lamented, "Takeout is so expensive, no wonder I can't apply for it!"

"It's mainly because the production this year is low, and foreigners want to crack the technology of 3.0T MRI machines as soon as possible, and some large foreign hospitals have money." Zhang Heping explained with a smile:

"However, I heard that they have plans to increase production, and will consider the needs of domestic hospitals later. You should submit your application first."

"Financial constraints have occurred in recent years, so it is only right to earn foreign exchange first," echoed Director Li of Xuanwu Hospital.

Dean Xie of the Third Hospital saw that neither the Harmonious Hospital nor the Xuanwu Hospital mentioned the application for the MRI machine, and guessed that they had a closer relationship with Director Zhang and might talk about it privately after dinner.

On his side, although he helped the Zhang family a small favor, the other party not only treated them to a meal, but also said that the 100 computers promised before would be delivered after the new year, and they no longer owed him anything.

After a moment of hesitation, Dean Xie of the Third Hospital stared at Zhang Heping and asked:

"Director Zhang, how did you help Harmony Hospital apply for that 3.0T MRI machine? Can you help us apply for it as well? We don't need to get it right away, we just need to increase production and give priority to our three hospitals."

Zhang Heping did not explain that he had given the design of the machine and programmed the system software. He just glanced at the two deans of Harmony and said with a smile:

"How about this, each of you give me an application document and I'll submit it for you. Meanwhile, you can continue to apply to the higher authorities. This way you'll have a better chance of success."

"Harmony Hospital has a cancer treatment institute, and Xuanwu Hospital has a neurosurgery research project. Both are hospitals that are in urgent need of a 3.0T MRI machine. As for the Third Hospital..."

Zhang Heping frowned and paused for a moment, without giving any advice immediately.

As Zhang Heping expected, Dean Xie and Director Hou of the Third Hospital both frowned.

Director Li of Xuanwu Hospital nodded in agreement and said, "For such expensive equipment, you really need to write a more complete application reason. Otherwise, we will have to hold a meeting to argue about which hospital gets the equipment first and which hospital gets it later!"

Director Zhao didn't care whether the Third Hospital could apply for it. After he went to the Harmonious Hospital and saw the new MRI films there, he wanted to get a machine to do brain CT at Xuanwu Pharmaceutical. "Xiao Zhang, when are you going to the south? We can send you the application materials in advance."

Although Director Zhao heard rumors that Zhang Heping went to Hong Kong Island, he subconsciously blurred his destination in front of outsiders.

"I'm going south tomorrow." Zhang Heping looked at Dean Xie of the Third Hospital and said:

"However, you don't have to worry. You can ask my second sister to deliver the information when the time comes. Her address is No. 7, North Bank of Houhai. Director Zhao has my second sister's landline number."

Director Zhao smiled and said, "The application materials submitted by our hospital have been returned. We will make some minor revisions and send them to you this afternoon."

"Okay! I'll go ask after I get the information this afternoon." Zhang Heping responded, then looked at the two former presidents of Harmonious Hospital who were smiling in silence.

They knew that the MRI machine was installed by engineers under the command of Zhang Heping, and they knew that since Zhang Heping had agreed to the task, he would most likely be able to get the machine, so they did not say much and just had someone deliver the information in the afternoon.

As for the application to the Third Hospital, no one from Harmonious Hospital and Xuanwu Hospital helped to come up with any ideas. What if the application is not approved and we blame the people who came up with the ideas?

The main reason is that the two families are not sure about Zhang Heping's attitude towards the Third Hospital.

Since Zhang Heping has thought of the reasons for Xiehe and Xuanwu hospitals to apply for MRI equipment, he can probably think of one for the Third Hospital as well.

Therefore, let Zhang Heping do the favor himself!

Zhang Heping saw that Dean Xie of the Third Hospital had a frown on his face. He couldn't think of a reason for the application for a moment, but he was unwilling to ask. This made Zhang Heping have some strange opinions about him.

"Should the Third Hospital consider applying to become a teaching point for MRI equipment, teaching equipment operation, medical imaging, MRI diagnosis and the like?" Zhang Heping mentioned this. He was too lazy to play psychological tactics with the other party and would just get a simple favor.

Dean Xie of the Third Hospital was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated for a moment, worried that he would not be able to teach people without experience.

"That's a good idea. Domestic hospitals are in great need of medical imaging talents!" Dean Lu of Harmonious Hospital said with a smile, "The Third Hospital can send a few backbones of the imaging department to come to our Harmonious Hospital imaging department to help first."

It is said to be helping, but in fact it is regular training.

Zhang Heping came up with the idea, and Xiehe helped you train people, so this favor was settled.

Dean Xie of the Third Hospital raised his glass and said with a smile, "In that case, I would like to thank Dean Lu and Director Zhang very much!"

Zhang Heping raised his glass and asked, "Are the three deans sure that the application materials will be submitted this afternoon?"

"Sure!"

The three deans responded in unison and then smiled at each other.

The new equipment in this hospital is like the new weapons in the army. Everyone wants the latest and best. No wonder they are so anxious.

After a glass of wine, Zhang Heping chatted with them for a few more words and then returned to his own table.

As for the cooperation between his yet-to-be-built Hong Kong Island Hospital and the mainland, Zhang Heping did not mention it because Director Xie of the Third Hospital was too concerned about it.

Anyway, he had already mentioned it to the two deputy directors of the Cancer Treatment Institute, and they would pass it on to the management of Harmony Hospital and even report it to the ministry.

As for the Xuanwu Hospital, Zhang Heping will have to talk to Director Zhao about it later, because Dr. Zhao has trained many neurosurgery apprentices over the years.

"I say, second sister, you are the deputy chief of the Personnel Department after all. You are going to toast Director Geng and Director Qi with a glass of wine to express your gratitude. You won't ask me to take you and your wife with you, will you?" After Zhang Heping sat next to his father Zhang Bing, he gave Zhang Pandi a displeased look.

He just sat next to Director Zhao so that he could sneak a peek at his two sisters and eldest brother-in-law Chang Sheng to see if they were up to something.

As a result, we only saw the three of them looking around but not taking any substantial action, which was a bit of a waste of the meal.

However, not long after Zhang Heping sat down, Director Qi came over with Director Geng.

"Heping, is the director of Harmonious Hospital sitting at the table where you just sat?" Director Qi didn't know what Zhang Heping and Wang Sumei were doing, and it was not convenient to call him by his previous position as deputy director, so he could only choose to call him by his first name.

"Yeah!" Zhang Heping stood up and answered, but considering that Director Geng was next to him, he did not explain in detail that the dean of the Third Hospital was also there.

Director Qi patted Director Geng's shoulder, who had a complicated expression on his face, and said with a smile, "Old Geng's mother is not in good health, and his wife stayed at home to take care of her, so she didn't come today."

"Look, can you introduce the director of Harmonious Hospital to Lao Geng? He can take his mother to Harmonious Hospital for treatment later."

Zhang Heping picked up the wine bottle and glass and left his seat again.

This kind of introduction of contacts to each other is very common both at home and abroad, and the network of contacts is woven in this way through mutual introductions.

"Gastric cancer?" After listening to Director Geng's description of his mother's condition, Dean Lu looked at Zhang Heping in surprise.

"I just found out about it, just like you." Zhang Heping explained hastily, and then introduced Director Cao of the Oncology Department to Director Geng and Director Qi, and the four of them clinked glasses together and had another drink.

Dean Lu met Director Cao's gaze and said with a smile, "Since he is Director Zhang's friend, I will arrange a bed for him at the institute. After the patient is admitted, I will confirm with the family whether they want to participate in the drug trial."

Director Zhang?

This title caught the attention of Director Qi and Director Geng, who planned to learn about the meaning of this title later.

They don't care where Zhang Heping makes his fortune because the policy allows some people to get rich first.

However, if Zhang Heping is still within the system, then he deserves their attention.
