Yan Feifan had Zhao Xiaoting tell the superstar to co to the Affiliated Hospital for a detailed examination.
After he hung up, they resud their interrupted conversation.
Regarding financing, Yu Chuanbai suggested they first try to find wealthy individuals and entrepreneurs. Venture capital firms and the investnt arms of large corporations, he said, should be their last resort.
As he put it, those venture capital and investnt firms were not only shrewd, but their terms were also extrely demanding.
Yu Chuanbai was very optimistic about the future of Extraordinary dical Technology and saw no reason to hand over massive profits to those vampires.
As for financing, they divided up the tasks.
Yu Chuanbai would be responsible for contacting his classmates and wealthy elders who were on good terms with the Yu Family.
As for Song Yi, she would use her brother’s connections to contact banks and other financial institutions, as well as reliable investors.
Yan Feifan’s job was to contact high-earning doctor colleagues who might be willing to invest or offer loans. He would also reach out to the wealthy individuals and entrepreneurs he knew through his patients or referrals.
The group also discussed their product promotion strategy, unanimously deciding on a simple yet aggressive and direct approach.
Door-to-door delivery, with a one-month free trial.
After the month was up, the custors could decide whether to keep it or not.
Yu Chuanbai said confidently, "I have faith in the product."
"As long as the product’s design ets our specifications and its quality is guaranteed, patients won’t mind spending an extra yuan or two to feel pleasantly warm all over while getting an IV drip on a cold day."
"The vast majority of dical facilities that try it will end up buying it."
Song Yi said optimistically, "I think so too. We can also offer various paynt options."
"One-ti paynts, installnt plans, leasing, and so on."
Yan Feifan questioned, "Aren’t installnt plans and leasing a bit overkill for sothing that isn’t a high-value item?"
"The total price adds up when they buy in bulk," Yu Chuanbai chuckled. "For a rural clinic, buying eight or ten units at once could be a financial strain."
Yan Ziruo suddenly spoke up, "Everyone uses WeChat and Alipay now. Couldn’t we partner with them...?"
"Like with financing for renters, the dical facilities could pay in installnts, but we would get the full amount upfront?"
"Sis, you’re dreaming," Yan Feifan scoffed.
"They’re a massive paynt company. Why would they bother working with a small firm like ours..."
"Feifan, that’s not necessarily true!"
Yu Chuanbai suddenly interrupted Yan Feifan. "Our product has the potential to sweep the nation," he said thoughtfully.
"These days, the populations of towns and rural areas are mostly made up of the ’left-behind’: the elderly, won, and children."
"Because their constitutions are generally weaker, they have a more urgent need for our infusion controller when they get sick and require an IV."
"Doctors in small towns and villages are quite well-respected in their communities."
"If all of them start using, say, WeChat for installnt paynts, it would undoubtedly set a powerful example..."
"I think it’s worth a shot," Yu Chuanbai said, his face lighting up with excitent.
"They should be able to see our potential for growth, not to ntion the promotional benefits it would bring them."
"Maybe we could even run joint promotions with them."
Yan Feifan was still skeptical.
After all, the difference in scale was huge. They probably wouldn’t even give them the ti of day.
But seeing how excited Yu Chuanbai was, Yan Feifan decided not to rain on his parade.
After dinner, they moved to the living room. They continued discussing business over tea and red wine.
Around 9 PM, their discussion was cut short by the sudden ring of the doorbell.
Yan Ziruo got up to open the door.
As the door opened, a man’s clear, powerful voice carried into the living room.
"Excuse , does Doctor Yan Feifan live here?"
The man had barely finished speaking when the master bedroom door slid open. Tian Yu, who had been sent there to study, ca running out.
She rushed to the foyer. When she saw the visitor at the door, she exclaid in surprise, "Teacher, it’s really you!"
"What are you doing here?"
’It’s Tian Yu’s teacher.’
Yan Feifan also quickly got up and went to the foyer to greet him.
He saw that the visitor was a man in his mid-thirties.
The man’s face was beaded with sweat. He was tall and slender, wore glasses, and had his hair in a side part, giving him a sowhat scholarly appearance.
Yan Feifan noticed a large briefcase slung over the man’s shoulder. On the floor by his feet sat a huge durian, weighing at least twenty or thirty pounds.
He was also carrying a hefty-looking paper bag in his left hand.
"Hello, sir! I’m Yan Feifan. Please, co in!" Yan Feifan said, stepping forward to greet him politely.
"Mr. Yan, hello. I apologize for visiting unannounced. I’m truly sorry to impose."
"I am Tian Yu’s horoom teacher, Kang Zhongtao!"
After apologizing and introducing himself, Mr. Kang handed the paper bag to Tian Yu, bent down to pick up the durian, and followed the Yan siblings inside.
When he entered the living room, Mr. Kang seed surprised to see several other people there.
He put down the durian, smiled politely at Yu Chuanbai, Song Yi, and Yu Suye, and then shifted his gaze back to Yan Feifan.
"Mr. Yan, I’m so sorry for interrupting your gathering."
After apologizing again, Kang Zhongtao got straight to the point. "I know I’m being forward by coming here unannounced, but I have a favor to ask."
Yan Feifan said with a hint of detachnt, "Mr. Kang, please tell what it is. If it’s sothing I can do, I’ll certainly do my best."
He then said politely, "Mr. Kang, please have a seat..."
Kang Zhongtao sat down on the living room sofa and accepted a cup of tea that Tian Yu brought him.
"Tian Yu, thank you!"
Kang Zhongtao placed the teacup on the coffee table, looked at Yan Feifan again, and said a bit sheepishly, "I learned from Tian Yu that her brother—that is, you, Mr. Yan—is an incredibly skilled doctor."
"So I looked you up on the Affiliated Hospital’s official website..."
Kang Zhongtao said with a look of awe, "I was curious, so I looked you up... and I was absolutely blown away."
"Mr. Yan, you’re so young, yet you’re already a consulting expert for the PLA General Hospital and Baining Hospital."
"No wonder Tian Yu said you’re a genius doctor, Mr. Yan, and that there’s no illness you can’t treat."
Hearing this, Tian Yu felt Yan Feifan’s gaze turn to her. She lowered her head and quietly shuffled her feet, hiding behind Yan Ziruo.
She heard Mr. Kang continue.
"That’s when I had the idea to ask for your help."
Without waiting for Yan Feifan to respond, Kang Zhongtao went on, "Mr. Yan, to be honest, I have a relative who has been experiencing inexplicable heart palpitations and chest tightness for the past few months."
"He’s been checked at several hospitals, including the Affiliated Hospital."
"But after all the tests, they just can’t find the specific cause of the palpitations, and the treatnts and dications they’ve tried haven’t had any effect."
"My relative is in his forties."
"He has elderly parents and young children, and you always see news online about soone or other dying from sudden cardiac death."
"He’s extrely worried and scared. He can’t eat or sleep well."
"So I was thinking, could I possibly ask you, Mr. Yan, to take a look at him?"
Frankly, Yan Feifan was not pleased by the teacher’s presumptuous visit.
However, he was Tian Yu’s teacher, and what he was asking was well within Yan Feifan’s capabilities.
Yan Feifan asked, "Mr. Kang, you brought your relative’s dical records with you, right?"
"I have them, but aside from the imaging data, the other test and lab reports are all photocopies."
As he said this, Kang Zhongtao’s face lit up with joy. He pulled a thick stack of docunts from his briefcase and handed them over...
