Eight hundred and thirtieth chapters persuasion

"Sneeze! Sneeze!" After Fang Mingyuan sneezed twice, he rubbed his nose and muttered, "There must be someone whispering about me behind my back."

Fang Mingyuan didn't know about the conversation between Su Aijun and Li Dongxing in Tongyi. He was currently in Hong Kong.

Fang Mingyuan has not forgotten that in the face of the disaster that may come as promised, Hong Kong is also one of the hardest-hit areas. It is across the sea from the original place of the disease. Due to the close exchanges of people and the high density of the population, it is also the place where the disease first broke out.

One of several areas in Hong Kong, the number of sick people in Hong Kong reached nearly 2,000 and the death toll reached 300 in that disaster!

You know, according to later official statistics, in that disaster in the mainland, the number of sick people exceeded 5,000, and the number of deaths was only over 300. In terms of patient mortality, Hong Kong and Taiwan basically accounted for

The first two.

Although Fang Mingyuan did not have personal experience of Hong Kong and Taiwan during that period, he also learned about it from the news and TV.

At that time, Hong Kong's tourism industry suffered a severe setback. Both mainland and overseas tourists were unwilling to travel to Hong Kong. After the news was announced, the number of tourists traveling to Hong Kong dropped by more than 60% compared with previous years, and hotel occupancy

The tourist rate has even dropped to a pitiful 20% or so. Hong Kong Ocean Park, which is usually crowded with people and bustling with traffic, only received less than 20 tourists! In the crowded commercial areas and scenic spots, there are also few people.

Since Hong Kong's economy focuses on the service industry, the impact of this disaster is also very obvious.

Although Fang Mingyuan tried his best to make some preparations through affiliated companies in Baodao, it was inconvenient for various reasons. However, it was much more convenient for Fang Mingyuan here in Hong Kong.

The major shareholders of Hong Kong Xuebao Hospital and Hong Kong Shengde Hospital, which cooperate with German PHJK Medical Group and Samsung Hospital, are now occupied by the Guo family and the Zheng family. If we add the Fang family and the Yu family, both hospitals have actually

Achieved controlling shareholding. Not only do these two hospitals have advanced and complete medical equipment, but the medical level of the medical staff is also very good. They have a good reputation among private hospitals in Hong Kong.

Fang Mingyuan has even stocked sufficient medicines and protective equipment in his warehouse in Hong Kong, enough to meet the needs of thousands of people.

Now, all he needs to do is to convince Mr. Guo and Mr. Zheng!

"Ming Yuan, what you are saying is that... Hong Kong is a small place with a dense population, and a large number of tourists come and go from Hong Kong every year. However, today's world has changed from natural chasms to smooth roads. To put it more exaggeratedly, if a powerful force occurs in any country,

Infectious diseases can spread all over the world in just a few days?" Mr. Zheng said, "So you hope to build two hospitals in Hong Kong that can receive this type of patients at any time?"

"Yes, Grandpa Zheng, the threat of powerful infectious diseases to human beings must not be underestimated. In the past, we called this infectious disease a plague, and in addition to causing a large number of population deaths, it can also destroy cities, politics,

Countries can collapse civilizations and even annihilate ethnic groups and species! According to historical records, a plague from 430 BC to 427 BC caused the decline of the city-state of Athens, which had twice led Greece to defeat Persia.

The same rampant Black Death, later known as the plague, killed more than 25 million people in Europe at that time, accounting for one-third of the total number of people in Europe at that time, and ultimately accelerated the decline of the invincible Roman Empire.

Decline. And a smallpox pandemic caused the Aztec Empire with a population of more than 20 million to disappear in Mexico!" Fang Mingyuan said sternly, "If I don't go too far, let's just say that the recent Spanish influenza occurred in

During the First World War, it caused the death of tens of millions of people around the world. The specific number of deaths was not very accurate and authoritative because it was during a world war, but conservative estimates exceeded

Twenty million people! And the total global population at that time was only 1.7 billion people!"

The two old men couldn't help but change their colors slightly and took a breath of cold air. Although they were no strangers to the term plague and knew the harm of powerful infectious diseases, they were not in the medical field after all. As for the specific figures,

There was no definite understanding. The series of numbers reported by Fang Mingyuan gave them a clear understanding of the lethality of the plague.

"According to official statistics from various countries at the time, nearly eight million people in Spain were infected with the disease at that time, and even the King of Spain was infected with the disease. Many people were normal in the morning, became sick at noon, and died in the evening. Therefore, many countries imposed restrictions

Citizens went to public places, and movie theaters, dance halls, sports venues, etc. in some places were closed for more than a year. It was the darkest month in American history. I forgot which month it was. It is said that more than 200,000 Americans died because of

The Spanish influenza died this month, and the average life span of Americans was shortened by more than ten years than usual!" Fang Mingyuan continued, "If we are not vigilant enough against infectious diseases, this is a lesson from the past!

"

Mr. Zheng and Mr. Guo exchanged glances. They were just two private hospitals. Fang Mingyuan had already made it so clear. Let him do it. At most, he would just donate some money every year.

Needless to say, in the past few years, the Guo family has developed rapidly in the shipping industry after Fang Mingyuan took charge of Guo's Shipping Group, and has become a shipping company with global influence.

Chow Tai Fook Jewelry and Gold Shop, with the support of Fang Mingyuan, has also seen significant growth in its business in the Middle East and the United States. This small amount of money is an astronomical figure in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is not a great figure in their eyes.

Of course, and more importantly, they also thought about Fang Mingyuan's past records - Fang Mingyuan not only had superhuman business acumen, but he also had a record of "successfully reporting funerals" several times.

The Japanese didn't believe him at first, but after a major earthquake, the blood of the Chinese people made them understand their stupidity.

Later, the earthquake in Turkey completely dumbfounded the Turks who did not believe in evil. Most people only knew that the "prophecy" was spread from Hong Kong. At most, they suspected that it came from the Kumho Film Group in Hong Kong. The two

The old man knew that 99% of the time it was Fang Mingyuan!

Now that Fang Mingyuan is making such a solemn request, maybe he has "seen" something again? Hong Kong people are not as "unafraid" of ghosts and gods as mainlanders. There are many people who believe in the saying that there are gods three feet above their heads.

Yes, there are a lot of people in Hong Kong who are good at reading Feng Shui and telling fortunes, so the two of them are not too afraid of Fang Mingyuan's ability, but rather feel envious.

"Okay, we will convince other shareholders. If it doesn't work, we will buy these two hospitals and transform them into hospitals that can treat patients with severe infectious diseases at any time." Mr. Guo said with a smile.

Fang Mingyuan let out a sigh of relief. From a certain point of view, having two old men come forward would be more effective than doing it himself.

"Besides these, what else do we need to do? Should we purchase a large amount of medical supplies and medicines?" Mr. Zheng said with a smile.

"Well, there is no need for this. I have already prepared sufficient supplies." Fang Mingyuan hesitated and said, "Of course, if the two old men are willing to purchase some, they can also donate them to other areas if there are more in the future."

Mr. Guo and Mr. Zheng couldn't help exchanging glances again, as if that was indeed the case. How could Fang Mingyuan say such a thing if he was not a little sure? Sufficient supplies? Hehe, both at home and abroad, there are medicines and drugs that can prevent and treat powerful infectious agents.

Medical supplies cannot be considered cheap goods.

Fang Mingyuan actually noticed this small action between the two people, but he pretended not to see it. He believed that the two old men would not leak this conversation easily. It can be said that his own interests have been closely related to those of the two families.

Interests are intertwined to varying degrees, and only fools would do such stupid things that harm others but do not necessarily benefit oneself.

The two old men nodded in agreement, which saved him a lot of trouble. However, he still had one more thing to ask the two old men.

"Grandpa Guo, Grandpa Zheng, are you familiar with the heads of these TV stations in Hong Kong?" Fang Mingyuan said. Hong Kong is not a big place, but there are many TV stations. Television Broadcasting Co., Ltd. is TVB, Asia Television Co., Ltd. is ATV,

There are also many TV stations such as Hong Kong Cable TV, Wireless Pay Television Co., Ltd., now Broadband TV, Hong Kong Broadband bbTV and Phoenix Satellite TV.

"The American movie "Terror Zone" is about the dangers of powerful infectious diseases. Although it is not that accurate, it can give people an intuitive understanding. I hope to be able to show it on these TV stations in the next few months.

It has been played many times. Of course, this may cause dissatisfaction among the audience..." Fang Mingyuan paused and said, "Neither Hong Kong Kumho Film Group nor I are suitable to come forward to promote this matter. However, I plan to pass some time,

Maybe I can help them by announcing that I appreciate the film."

The two old men looked at each other and smiled. They also understood Fang Mingyuan's scruples, but this request was indeed nothing to them. They had watched these TV stations being established and launched one after another, and they were their founders.

For the two of them, they are either old friends or familiar juniors. This kind of thing only needs a little hint. With Fang Mingyuan's current reputation, is it not a piece of cake? (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, novels are better
