"The killing of chickens in my memory doesn't seem to be like this."

Wei Kang looked at the fragrant and steaming pot of chicken soup on the table and murmured to himself.

"Oh, what do you think killing a chicken should be like?"

Wei Kang waved his chopsticks and gestured: "I remember when I was a child, when my mother was killing a chicken, she had to let my father grab the feet. She grabbed the head and then stabbed it down. The chicken blood spurted out and sprayed all over the kitchen.

, half of the wall was stained red, and it took a long time to wash it."

"That's it, she may not be able to kill the chicken. The half-dead chicken, with blood in its throat, is clucking and screaming on the kitchen floor, and is still struggling to jump up and down. It makes the whole family very noisy.

It was a big shadow in my childhood."

"How could it be so easy for you? When I was a kid, did my mother kill all fake chickens?"

Jian Lian Yun burst out with a smile: "Look, it scares the child so much that even killing a chicken brings back memories of his childhood."

She picked up a chicken leg and put it in Wei Kang's bowl: "Here, try it and see if it's different from the chicken bought in the supermarket?"

This is a piece of chicken thigh. The meat is plump and has a golden luster. It is very elastic when you poke it lightly with chopsticks.

Wei Kang exerted a slight force on his fingers and poked the chopsticks deeply, and a stream of juice gushed out, moistening the rice grains and dyeing it a slightly yellow color.

He opened his mouth and took a bite, only to feel that his tongue was so fresh that he swallowed it whole.

Jian Lian Yun's eyes were filled with smiles and she handed another bowl of chicken soup to his hand.

In the translucent bone china bowl, the chicken soup is clear, with a layer of moist oil floating on it. A few fat red dates are shaking precariously in the soup, and the aroma is so fragrant that it makes people move their index fingers.

Wei Kang emptied the chicken drumsticks from his mouth in a few licks, picked up the chicken soup, took a sip, and was immediately full of praise.

He drank it all in one gulp, then put down the bowl and let out a long breath.

"It's so delicious. Wife, your craftsmanship is really amazing!"

Wei Kang gave a thumbs up: "It's a perfect match with this stewed chicken. It's wonderful."

Jian Lian Yun smiled with satisfaction, then moved his chopsticks and started eating by himself.

Although she originally liked cooking, seeing her husband eating so deliciously gave her an inexplicable pleasure.

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether this was the glory of motherhood or the joy of raising pigs.

This meal made Wei Kang's mouth water and his eyebrows dance with joy: "This free-range chicken really tastes good, I have to have it every week from now on."

"The pigs will be released soon. Then we won't have to go to the supermarket to buy meat."

"This meat is safe to eat if you raise it yourself."

Jian Jian Yun nodded, put away the dishes, and quickly threw them into the dishwasher.

"Indeed, it's clean and safe. Even the two of us, plus my parents, can't eat so much. A pig would probably have to eat it for a month."

Wei Kang waved his hand, stood at the door of the kitchen, and explained while picking his teeth.

"Not all of it is for our own consumption. When the pork is released in batches, we will open an organic food section so that everyone can eat healthier. The excess meat can also be sold in limited quantities in the canteen, which is considered a company benefit."

"Our breeding farm is not big, with just a few hundred pigs. It is enough for the internal staff to eat."

“You don’t have to spend too much money, you can not only integrate production and research, but also let everyone eat with confidence. It’s quite cost-effective.”

"Of course, the most important thing is you, my wife, and the health of our children in the future. No matter how much money you spend on this, it is worth it."

Having said this, he stretched out his hand, hugged the slender waist in front of him, and said with a smile.

"Honey, you said we have been working hard for so long, but why is there still no movement?"

"That's because you haven't worked hard enough." Jian Jianyun's voice trembled, and he murmured and exhaled.

"My wife is right, then I have to work harder and fight to death." Wei Kang smiled softly and pressed his body against her.

"No, this is the kitchen."

"If you close your eyes, everything will be the same."

The two bodies were pressed together tightly, until there was no gap at all.

One morning a few days later, Wei Kang rubbed his sore waist and walked into the office.

As soon as I sat down on the chair, I got a good start.

"Mr. Wei, we have won a super deal from the 16-province alliance!" As soon as Lu Tingfeng's figure appeared at the door, a high-pitched sound of good news came in.

Wei Kang had an illusion for a moment, whether this Lu Tingfeng had installed some kind of surveillance on himself, why did he appear behind him as soon as he arrived at the office?

However, his attention was immediately attracted by the four words "super big order".

"Old Lu, you have worked hard for this bidding. Come on, sit down first and speak slowly." Wei Kang waved his hand and asked Lu Tingfeng to sit down.

He didn't show any urgency in his expression, and this calmness and calmness immediately made Lu Tingfeng feel deeply ashamed.

"Mr. Wei, I'm sorry, I lost my temper. The main reason is that this tender is too important and the amount is unprecedentedly large. I got a little carried away."

Lu Tingfeng scratched his head, a little embarrassed, but he quickly calmed down and began to report.

"This time, the total amount of the centralized procurement bidding in 16 provinces is as high as 1.5 billion, including 1,000 units of ultrasonic scalpel equipment, 600,000 ultrasonic scalpel heads, and 25 equipment manufacturers have been shortlisted. For the ultrasonic scalpel market, it already accounts for half of the country."

"Of course, these devices are not equally divided among every province, because different provinces have different medical development and different economic strengths."

"Economically strong provinces like Guangdong and Jiangsu provinces have purchased more than 100 units of ultrasonic scalpel equipment. Not only city hospitals, but also county hospitals can allocate one. As for Guizhou and Yunzhou, which are poorer,

Provinces can only allocate them to municipal hospitals, so the purchase volume is only about 20 or 30 units."

"Of course, how they distribute it within the province has little to do with us."

"In addition to quantity, price is also important to each province. The bargaining this time was very severe, with a direct discount of 40%. The commonly used ultrasonic scalpel head was reduced from 2,500 to 1,500. Even a proud person like Johnson & Johnson has to bow his head."

"Some domestic manufacturers have even reduced the price of ultrasonic scalpel heads to less than a thousand yuan. Ultrasonic scalpel heads have entered the era of one hundred yuan, which will undoubtedly greatly benefit the popularization of ultrasonic scalpel technology."

"However, since the ultrasonic scalpel equipment is purchased from mid-range products, the price has not dropped much."

"But due to our joining, the performance has been greatly improved. Johnson & Johnson had no choice but to reduce the prices of some high-end products and join in. It can be considered an indirect price reduction."

The more Lu Tingfeng talked, the more excited he became. He was about to get to the most important point. He took a deep breath and couldn't help but smile on his face.

"Mr. Wei, we have won a quarter of the ultrasonic scalpel heads, a third of the ultrasonic scalpel equipment, a total of 400 million yuan!"

"The remaining orders are divided between domestic manufacturers and a group of foreign companies such as Johnson & Johnson. Johnson & Johnson's share this time has been cut in half compared to previous years."

"In previous years, they would take away at least half of the ultrasonic scalpel heads and 80% of the ultrasonic scalpel equipment."

"After this bidding, everyone will know that the ultrasonic scalpel market will become Sanqingtianxia, ​​Sanqing, Johnson & Johnson, and others."

Lu Tingfeng's expression suddenly became sneaky, he looked around, then lowered his voice and said:

"The person who came to bid for this time also quietly sent me a letter in private, saying that it is because Sanqing's equipment has just been launched and does not have enough production capacity yet, and the promotion of the popularization of ultrasonic scalpels requires both equipment and personnel.

It takes a certain amount of time, so foreign companies are allowed to enter this time.”

"In the future, when domestically produced products become more prominent, foreign companies will be completely excluded and only domestically produced equipment will be used."

"I heard that during the centralized procurement in the past two years, Johnson & Johnson refused to lower the price. It took a long time to lower the price by just one penny. This offended the 16 provincial alliances."

"So with Sanqing, they feel at ease and are no longer afraid of being manipulated."

"Tell me, I really can't tell. It turns out that the higher-ups also hold grudges like this."

"It's true that yesterday you were so indifferent to me and didn't even give me a dollar. Today I'm going to make it impossible for you to reach a higher level and throw you out."

Wei Kang chuckled and asked, "You only know now?"

Lu Tingfeng was speechless when asked, and said sarcastically: "I have never encountered such a big scene before. There is no such pattern. I will have to learn more from Mr. Wei in the future."

Wei Kang knocked on the table and said in a deep voice: "In that case, then you should keep a close eye on it, increase production capacity, and ensure on-time delivery."

"Those who make medical devices, whether they are first-tier tertiary hospitals, prefecture-level hospitals, or even second-tier county hospitals, are our big customers. We must treat them with caution and provide technical support and after-sales service."

"Especially the ultrasonic scalpel is a new technology, and many doctors have never used it. Our medical representatives need to demonstrate it to them, so there must be no mistakes in this aspect, otherwise it will seriously affect the reputation."

Lu Tingfeng nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said: "Mr. Wei, don't worry, my pre-sales and after-sales technical support is always the first priority and I will do my best."

Gui Province, Linyuan County People's Hospital.

Although it is a little-known small county, it is close to Guangdong Province and has been on the fast train of economic development over the years.

Under the wise leadership of President Sun Guangrong, the County People's Hospital has continued to grow and develop. It was recently rated as a high-quality development pilot hospital in Guangxi Province and is the only county-level hospital in the province.

Nowadays, it continues to make progress on the road to becoming a top tertiary hospital.

At this time, President Sun Guangrong was standing in the hospital's newly built minimally invasive operating room, happily looking at the new "big baby" inside - a brand new ultrasonic scalpel device.

"Dean, is this the famous Sanqing Ultrasonic Scalp? Compared with Johnson & Johnson's, which one is more powerful?"

Standing next to him was Director Liu of the Endoscopy Center, with a smile on his face that turned into a flower. Looking at this equipment was like an old pervert seeing a peerless beauty, his eyes were extremely hot.

Sun Guangrong said with a smile: "Then Sanqing is definitely better. This time the province purchased a batch of ultrasonic scalpels, including those from Johnson & Johnson and some made in China. The ones delivered to us are definitely the best."

"Besides, Sanqing's ultrasonic scalpels are not only of high quality, but also of good service. Each hospital has sent a medical representative to teach us how to load and unload, test and use, and maintain the equipment. Johnson & Johnson would definitely not have such good service."

Director Liu nodded and said with deep sympathy: "That's not true. The after-sales service of foreign companies is really average. Last time our Olympus endoscope was broken and we had someone come to repair it. They actually said we would have to wait five days before sending it.
