Rebirth: Super Banking System

Chapter 2358: Chapter 2198: Money Is Not a Problem

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Shi Ze held the document that was hurriedly prepared.

He left the house.

At this moment.

Half a month until the Chinese New Year, the festive atmosphere was already strong in the streets and alleys. Although the sense of the New Year was fading, one thing remained unchanged.

—Reunion.

…

Not long after.

Came to the health department.

A meeting was held.

He had gone to Myanmar for a month, personally tested the drugs, and naturally had to participate to discuss and demonstrate the introduction of drugs and the issue of including them in healthcare reimbursement.

In the Conference Venue.

Health.

Food and Drug.

Finance.

Human Resources and Social Security.

Development and Reform.

All five relevant departments had representatives present to listen to the report. At the upper levels, wanting to pass a resolution was not something a single department could manage.

It required multiple departments together.

“…”

“In summary.”

“I believe we are fully capable of introducing a specific treatment method for Alzheimer’s disease, and the overall cost is within controllable limits.”

“Including it in healthcare reimbursement.”

“Can significantly reduce the burden on the patient’s family and alleviate the patient’s pain. As for the reimbursement rate, it can refer to the rate for cancer treatment.”

“…”

Shi Ze’s voice resonated throughout the Conference Hall.

Regarding this.

Everyone actually had no different opinions. If cancer takes lives, Alzheimer’s disease in its later stages has an even greater impact.

Therefore.

The introduction is imperative.

Opposition?

Try it.

One would be cursed to death by the people; now many families are eagerly awaiting, paying daily attention to the News, seeing one after another recovering consciousness from long-term bedridden states.

It was very exciting.

Yes.

It’s only been a month, there are risks.

However.

This risk is bearable for both the patient and their family. Besides, two years of clinical trials have been conducted without issues so far.

As for the patients?

In the late stages, how many can live for two years?

Therefore.

This cannot really be considered a risk; the clinical results are longer than the predicted death period, which is an acceptable risk, prompting admiration.

This time.

Myanmar has done a good thing again.

However.

If it could be cheaper, it would be better. The cost per treatment is not high, but treating all the patients in Huaxia requires trillions.

Fortunately.

It doesn’t require U.S. dollars.

Asia Dollar.

RMB.

Both work.

Just like the Transcription Fluid, it’s relatively easier to earn Asia Dollar than U.S. dollars. Moreover, this funding is not entirely borne by the state.

Included in healthcare reimbursement.

It’s not fully reimbursed.

Thirty.

Fifty.

Sixty.

None of these have been decided yet, but no matter which one, an average family can afford it. If they can’t really get the few thousand, they can at least get treated first.

In short.

Money.

Is not a problem!

…

After the meeting.

Upon leaving.

“Is it done?”

An old friend came over, smiling at Shi Ze.

“Of course.”

“Good.”

Chatting.

The two walked out of the building and found a place for tea. The other person works at Development and Reform, considered a researcher with a high rank, and was also attending to listen in.

“Good tea.”

“That it is.”

Both showed enjoyment.

Nowadays.

In Beijing.

Even slightly upscale Tea Houses have teas cultivated using Modulation Solution. The taste varies depending on the irrigation concentration, but they all have one characteristic in common.

—Expensive.

A hundred a cup is considered cheap.

“It’s a pity.”

“We have no technology.” The old friend sighed, relying on Modulation Solution, last March through a private sale, Myanmar sold goods worth five trillion Asia Dollar.

This year it will surely be more.

A trillion?

Very likely.

“We’ll have it in the future.” Shi Ze said casually. He didn’t believe they could never break the Transcription Fluid. Regarding reverse engineering, Huaxia is also a professional.

Therefore.

Shi Ze had great confidence.

Actually.

If you insist on cracking someone else’s technology now, he wasn’t as eager as before. Perhaps he felt this is what they deserved.

After all.

They didn’t sell it at exorbitant prices; it’s considered conscientious. It’s also not like the Western technology blockade, where they won’t sell the technology or even the product itself.

Myanmar has always been generous.

Besides technology.

If you want to buy.

They sell.

With an attitude that if you can research it, it’s your skill, fundamentally different from the Western technology blockade which does not trigger hostility.

Not selling products.

Is annoying.

Not selling technology.

They have no wrongdoing.

Otherwise.

One would resort to bandit thinking, resenting them for not selling you their technology. Anyone with a bit of morality wouldn’t think that way.

“By the way, I heard you just returned from Myanmar early last month.” Shi Ze asked.

“Yes.”

“What did you do?”

“Inspection.”

The old friend took a sip of tea.

“As you know, the Twelfth Five-Year Plan is to be officially introduced next year. Now it’s in the early research and draft stage. I went to inspect the hydropower there.”

“Early last year.”

“I went to Myanmar once, and again at the end of the year. Regarding their water policy, we believe it has strong implementability.”

“However.”

“It is quite costly.”

“But.”

“The upper levels have basically recognized it, to boost the Economy, a three trillion Investment, the effect is strong, but according to estimates, this number seems conservative.”

“Therefore.”

“For the next, we are preparing to invest heavily in water infrastructure.”

Upon hearing this.

Shi Ze nodded.

“Indeed, in terms of hydropower, we still need substantial Investment. I also took some time to look at Myanmar’s water projects, they are indeed quite good.”

“In a few decades.”

“All river routes encroached by Human habitation were restored to rivers, and new waterways were excavated, leading to uninhabited basins.”

“Thus.”

“It can at least improve water storage capacity by thirty percent. In the event of massive rainfall, water flow will not be overly concentrated, reducing many floods.”

“However.”

“It is costly.”

Shi Ze smiled wryly.

Hydropower.

Is a money-burning machine. To manage it completely will cost trillions, well into the trillion range, with the first unit not even being one.

Three.

Five.

Is not exaggerated, given the large area. Myanmar’s two to three hundred billion can manage it, but Huaxia, nearly twenty times the area of Myanmar, has a higher cost.

Alright!

This is not something he should worry about.

“Who doesn’t know that!” The old friend spread his hands, looking helpless. Large projects costing tens of trillions are not just expensive, but simply burn money.

“Recently.”

“I heard they’re preparing for a second round of river modifications, adding embankments to all rivers and fixing the widths. I was envious.”

“It was written in the report.”

“I wonder.”

“Whether it will be sent back.”

“Haha.”

Shi Ze laughed heartily upon hearing this.

“No worries.”

“Take it slow. Our nation will only become wealthier and better, step by step. Twelfth Five-Year, Thirteenth Five-Year, Fourteenth Five-Year…”

“I refuse to believe we can’t create one of the world’s best hydropower systems. Weren’t we once poverty-stricken and lacking? Don’t expect instant success.”

“A single meal won’t make you fat, but it might upset your stomach.”

“Progress steadily!”

“We will certainly not fall behind any country.”
