Chapter 554: Better Than Nothing
"It''s just a name, Ms. Jiang, you can just change it," remarked Manager Sun. Not using the reputable
name of Shengqi was quite the bummer but naming thepany differently was fine anyway.
"I''ll just think of one." Jiang Yao nodded. Initially, she wanted to use Shengqi''s name not only because
she waszy ating up with one herself, but it was also a perfect opportunity to improve Shengqi''s
Plus, having an actual private hospital supporting the pharmaceutical manufacturingpany in the
background was very effective at improving its credibility.
With Mr. Feng''s objection, the meeting ended ten minutes after it started. Jiang Yao left the conference
room in a bad mood.
The first thing she did after leaving the meeting was to visit the director at his office together with
Manager Sun.
"Ms. Jiang, I like your idea of setting up the researchb." As a businessman, all Mr. Feng thought of
was profit and gain. However, the director of the hospital thought differently.
"Plenty of countries overseas invest heavily in medical research each year. Our country''s independent
research activity pales inparison. We have to import medicine and drugs overseas and they cost a
lot. What if the foreigners buy our products created through our research efforts locally here in the
researchb? That will be the most ideal scenario. It''s wonderful that you have this idea, perhaps you
can get in touch with the relevant authorities at the Nanjiang City city council and ask for government
grant support."
It was all the director''s personal opinions. "The Nanjiang Medical University is Nanjiang City''s only
medical educational institution and one of the top educational institutions in the country. It would be
wonderful if Chancellor Wen can give us some support."
"If we take the government''s money, doesn''t it mean that we lose our autonomy? Will they send people
to work in the researchb and ask for endless reports to be done?" Jiang Yao''s mind was cleared up.
"Of course." The director could not understand why Jiang Yao''s expression soured.
"We''ll see to that again." Jiang Yao shook her head. She did not want to deal with the bureaucracy of
the government.
Instead, she wanted absolute control over the researchb.
Therefore, she would have to gather the necessary capital herself. If it could not be done, she would
then only look for a different way out.
Jiang Yao sighed after leaving the director''s office.
Seeing that she was concerned with money, Manager Sun said, "Even though Shengqi Hospital is now
out of the equation, Ms. Jiang, you can still request a personal loan using your own personal assets. It
will mean less financing methods, but it is still better than nothing."
"Sure, can you help me find out how much can I borrow from the bank given my current financial
assets?" Jiang Yao nodded. "Also, inform the director that I will need to use an operating theatre

tomorrow night. Please ask him to arrange that for me. No one else is to know about this."
Looking at the time, Brother Zhong must have just finished work and was just about to leave. Jiang Yao
wanted to see him and let him know about the surgery she was going to perform on him the next day.
