Seeing Zhang Yunan's expression, Lin Yao knew that Gou Xiaogou hadn't told him about his situation. After a moment's thought, he organized his thoughts and said, "How do you evaluate your own abilities? Think about it carefully, as it relates to how you are treated and your father's illness."
Zhang Yunan was taken aback and thought for a moment. He decided not to be modest, as he couldn't risk his father's illness. "Among my peers, I wouldn't say I'm number one in system architecture, but I'm definitely among the top in the country. I'm also good at system security, which I honed during my university years, but of course, I had more opportunities to practice after working at companies like Cisco."
“My family was very poor, so I worked very hard in college. When I first started working in my second year, I didn’t earn much money. In this industry, the higher your skills, the higher your income. I can say without hesitation that among this year’s college graduates, I am number one in these computer-related fields.”
Zhang Yunan's words were completely different from his personal image and performance, revealing a strong sense of confidence and arrogance. Lin Yao believed him immediately, partly due to Gou Xiaogou's recommendation.
Children from poor families mature early. Poverty can sometimes be an obstacle, but more often it's a driving force. Those who rise from poverty are invariably talented, regardless of their initial starting point or their natural abilities; they all reach the highest level determined by their talents.
"Let's not talk about salaries for now. Let me tell you about the benefits for Minhong employees." Lin Yao quickly drafted a list of benefits for Minhong employees, a sudden inspiration that would be a powerful tool for Minhong to recruit and retain talent in the future.
"All full-time employees are eligible for a medical fund of up to 200,000 yuan for their immediate family members. There are no conditions for medical reimbursement up to 200,000 yuan. For amounts exceeding 200,000 yuan, a relevant service agreement must be signed, requiring the employee to serve Minhong for at least five years; otherwise, a penalty will be imposed. The specific agreement term will be determined based on the amount of fund used." Lin Yao's words made Zhang Yunan's eyes light up, and he couldn't wait to know the specific terms.
Seeing Zhang Yunan's expression, Lin Yao knew what he was thinking, but he couldn't let the other party ask questions because he himself wasn't clear about the specific conditions and hadn't decided yet. For Zhang Yunan, this wasn't the most effective approach; after all, money isn't everything. Such talent could earn extremely high salaries at other companies, so they had to add more ingredients.
"Don't rush, let me finish. This condition doesn't mean much to your father." Lin Yao raised his hand and pressed down lightly to calm Zhang Yunan down. "Now I can tell you that Minhong has a professional medical technology team behind it, and the technology is very advanced, which is why we can produce products that are ahead of their time."
"The technical team has another capability, which is healing." Lin Yao saw Zhang Yunan's eyes getting brighter and brighter, and thought to himself that this kind of offer was indeed something no one could refuse, because no one could guarantee that their loved ones would not get sick. No matter how excellent they were in their respective fields, they would be tempted by the generous offer in a field they were not good at.
“If you want Minhong’s own team to handle this, we’ll not consider money, but only the actual condition of the patient who needs treatment.” Lin Yao began to negotiate the terms. “Given your father’s triple silicosis, you will need to serve Minhong for at least fifteen years, during which time you will receive a reasonable salary. However, if you are not very proactive during this period, Minhong can sideline you and only pay you the minimum wage for the same position in the industry. You cannot switch to another company, otherwise you will be in breach of contract.”
“I am willing to serve Minhong, for fifteen years or even a lifetime, as long as you can cure my father’s illness.” Zhang Yunan stood up without hesitation, his expression very excited and his urgency was obvious. “I believe in Minhong, but I never knew you could cure diseases.”
“I am fully capable of doing my job. Even if you ask me to learn new technologies or transfer me to other positions, I guarantee I can still do it well.” Zhang Yunan made his request regardless of everything.
A father's love is as solid as a mountain; he cannot bear the consequences of losing his father. As for his own future, does that matter?
Lin Yao nodded gravely, remaining silent. This was a man of deep feeling and integrity, intelligent, responsible, and persevering. Even if they were complete strangers, Lin Yao would be willing to help treat the patient; however, this only existed in theory.
Lin Yao offered to treat the patient without considering the circumstances, partly because of fate, and partly because he wanted to see if the patient's character was worth helping.
After all, there are too many patients in the world. Even a hundred Norman Bethunes couldn't take care of them all. Lin Yao never considered himself as Norman Bethune; he had his own life and pursuits.
Openly treating patients is not a wise choice. Like all clinicians, we are more or less numb to the suffering of all kinds of patients. Only this numbness can maintain the doctor's calm state of mind and prevent personal emotions from affecting the performance of medical skills. This is also why the hospital system stipulates that doctors cannot personally perform surgery on their immediate family members, because doing so would cause them to lose their composure.
When patients seek medical treatment, they invariably exhibit vulnerability. Their attitudes, enthusiasm, and promises are unrelated to their normal condition. The saying "desperate people will seek any treatment" is not just an empty phrase; it reflects the mentality of all seriously ill patients and their families. This is why Lin Yao understands why the "Pink Girl" previously doxxed him online, although he understands it but does not accept it.
Lin Yao's principle is to heal good people and those who are destined to be healed. However, there are simply too many good people for him to personally treat, so he must rely on fate.
The word "fate" is very mysterious, without any specific standard. It often manifests as a person's state of mind and personal preferences. Lin Yao is no exception; if he feels it's fate, he'll act; if he feels it's unlucky, he'll remain calm. Just like when he met Duan Hanyuan last time, he felt it was fate, but when he met Ma Yibiao again at West China Hospital, he didn't think it was fate.
Let Minhong realize the idea of benefiting more good people. It is a huge project that requires a large team. Of course, Longcheng, a company that is destined to be greedy for money, will also play an irreplaceable role in it, even though its reputation will not be good in the future.
“Sign a 15-year contract. After you sign, bring your father to Chengdu immediately. We will take responsibility for curing him completely.” Lin Yao sighed. This filial son with genuine feelings deserves respect. “Next time you come to Chengdu, start working immediately. You will continue to join the current network business department. Your father will be taken care of by professionals, so you can rest assured. After your father recovers, you can even move your whole family to Chengdu to settle down. I can advance you several years’ salary so you can buy property.”
“Chengdu is a great place, perfect for retirement. I think your parents will love this beautiful city,” Lin Yao continued enticingly. “As for not wanting to leave your hometown, with your future income, taking a plane back to Weifang, Shandong won’t take much time, and it won’t be too expensive for you. Think about it.”
"I do!" Zhang Yunan was like a drowning person grasping at a last straw, the eagerness in his eyes almost melting Lin Yao.
"Wait a moment, I'll have the office and legal department draft the agreement, and we can sign it right away. I hope you can go home and bring your father over as soon as you sign, and then start working. Things here are very urgent. If you don't have enough money, you can get an advance from the finance department." Lin Yao stood up and left the reception room without saying goodbye. He knew that Zhang Yunan wouldn't leave and would definitely wait there, even if it took forever.
Upon entering the general manager's office, he summoned the office manager and the legal affairs department manager to assign tasks. Only then did he discuss the welfare and benefits of Minhong employees with his parents. Wen Youmin and Wu Jianwei were also present. At this time, Lin Yao had already revealed his identity to them, and they were already aware of his reputation as an angel.
“That’s great, Yao’er.” Lin Hongmei was the first to voice her support for her son. “Could we develop a drug to treat silicosis? There are an estimated 570,000 silicosis patients nationwide. Minhong should help them too.”
“Mom,” Lin Yao said with a wry smile, “Don’t think your son is some kind of god. Do you think you can concoct any medicine?”
Silicosis is caused by inhaling large amounts of dust from the air into the alveoli. The silica contained in the alveoli is engulfed by macrophages, causing the lysosomes of the phagocytes to rupture, activating fibroblasts, leading to the deposition of collagen fibers and fibrosis of the lung tissue.
Fibrotic alveoli lose their gas exchange function, thus gradually leading to death. Currently, there is no cure for silicosis worldwide; a diagnosis of silicosis is tantamount to a death sentence, making it one of the deadliest occupational diseases.
Lin Yao had no good solution for silicosis. Silica is the main component of sand. This extremely stable substance is difficult for the human body to break down, and even some strong acids cannot break it down. This is why glassware made of silica is often used in laboratories to handle various strong acids and bases.
Trying to stimulate the body to break down, absorb, or eliminate silica dust through medication? That's incredibly difficult; Lin Yao couldn't imagine doing it.
“Let’s follow Yao’er’s method. Minhong is a pharmaceutical company. If it can’t even guarantee the health of its own employees, how can it gain the trust of others? How can it gain the true recognition of its employees?” Luo Jimin immediately made the decision to adopt it.
Everyone understands the employee medical fund issue. After all, not everyone can enjoy Lin Yao's personal services. Lin Yao has greater value and shouldn't be limited to these small matters. He should only be needed when modern medical methods cannot solve the disease.
As for the common occurrences in society of exploiting loopholes in the medical insurance system, treating minor illnesses when they are not sick, or exaggerating minor illnesses, and using completely unnecessary high-end tonics and treatment environments, these things will not happen to Minhong. After all, everyone present is an expert in the medical system, and we will never allow such incidents to occur.
Even assuming Minhong is a private company, and all the money spent comes from Luo Jimin and Lin Hongmei's personal pockets, are they really that stupid to let people waste money so recklessly? They're not the medical insurance bureau; they don't need to worry about their image or strictly enforce policies, leaving others to exploit loopholes without any recourse. Even if they immediately suspended the factory's internal policies and regulations, what then? Could those rule-breaking employees really use that as grounds for a lawsuit?
"It's so wonderful to be a Minhong employee; our family's health is now guaranteed." Wu Jianwei laughed heartily, his words echoing throughout the general manager's office.
"You've been enjoying this benefit for a long time. Do you think all those pills you took before were just for feeding pigs?" Wen Youmin joked with his best friend, in a very good mood.
"Who are considered immediate family members?" Lin Hongmei, showing a woman's meticulousness, began to refine this system.
"Personally, I think it should include employees' parents, children, and spouses who have been married for more than five years. For spouses who have had children with employees, there is no limit to the length of marriage. Employees' siblings should be considered separately, but this requires approval from company leaders and is not part of the policy," Lin Yao said. "You can think about the specifics yourself. This is just my personal opinion."
"Why is there a requirement for a marriage term?" Luo Jimin asked, unable to understand the significance of this condition.
"Isn't this to prevent some people from taking advantage of the housing system to engage in sham marriages, enjoying the benefits and then divorcing due to incompatibility? There are too many of these things these days. There were often sham marriages when the company allocated housing before," Wu Jianwei interjected. He strongly supported the restriction that Lin Yao mentioned. Many people nowadays are too casual about marriage, and it needs to be properly regulated.
“I think it’s great.” Wen Youmin usually doesn’t speak when discussing policies outside of the production field, but he was very enthusiastic at this moment. “I suggest making Minhong’s internal employee benefits public so that we can recruit technical personnel. If this system is implemented, I will be able to poach two very good experts in the pharmaceutical industry immediately. They are exactly in need and will definitely not be able to resist this temptation. Before, no matter how much I raised their salaries, they were unmoved. This offer will probably be the key.”
"Haha." Luo Jimin laughed. "Then let's make it public, immediately put it into a document and publish it on the official website, and while we're at it, let's recruit people."
At this point, Minhong was still a simple company, lacking a rigorous work style. Company policies and development direction were still determined by a few key figures, who set the tone in casual conversations, giving it a somewhat unserious feel. Fortunately, these key figures were selfless and there was no infighting; otherwise, such a system alone would have led the company to its demise. It's well known that internal strife is always the fastest way to sink an aircraft carrier.
