Under the instructions of the deputy mayor and the dean, Director Zou truthfully told all about Anne Hathaway's condition.
Her current main symptoms are sudden high fever, abnormal white blood cells, and signs of viral infection. However, it is currently unclear what kind of viral infection it is, so the hospital has now done blood culture for her for more precise analysis of the source of infection, but Blood culture results may not come out for a while, so you need to wait patiently.
At present, the hospital has decided to use the ultra-broad-spectrum antibiotic Tylenon on Anne Hathaway before the source of infection has been determined, hoping it will be effective.
Director Zou made two assumptions for Li Mu. According to him, first of all, assuming that Anne Hathaway was not infected with that infectious disease, then Taineng has a high chance of resisting the virus she was infected with. As long as the virus is in Taineng Within the resistance range of Tai Neng, her symptoms will improve soon. If it is not within the resistance range of Tai Neng, don’t be too nervous. The hospital will try other antibiotics. If it still has no effect, wait for the results of the blood culture to come out. The right medicine is prescribed;
Another hypothesis is that if Anne Hathaway gets that kind of infectious disease, then the use of Tylenol and other antibiotics may be difficult to achieve a real therapeutic effect. By that time, the hospital will take the current measures to treat that kind of infectious disease. Treat the disease according to the prescribed treatment method and make every effort to treat it;
Director Zou also asked Li Mu whether Anne Hathaway had been to a particularly crowded place during this period, or had she been in contact with patients with fever.
Li Mu and Spielberg thought about it for a long time, but they didn't expect anything special. Anne Hathaway went to the beach and restaurants with them, but because Li Mu's identity is relatively sensitive, they have always avoided the public and tried not to come into contact with more people. Therefore, it can be inferred that Anne Hathaway Sevi didn't have many opportunities to get close to SARS patients.
Director Zou quickly arranged for a nurse to check the body temperature of Li Mu, Spielberg and others outside. When he learned that everyone's body temperature was normal, Director Zou felt a little relieved and said to Li Mu: "In this case, there is no need to worry too much. Yes, you are all the people who have the most contact with Miss Anne, but your bodies don’t have any abnormal reactions, so I think Miss Anne is not infected.”
Li Mu nodded. If judged by elimination and logic, Director Zou's inference is not unreasonable. From this point of view, the possibility of Anne Hathaway contracting SARS is indeed unlikely. It is very likely that she was unlucky enough to catch SARS at this time. Infection with certain pathogenic bacteria causes high fever.
But even so, everyone did not dare to take it lightly and had to let Anne Hathaway receive isolation treatment in the hospital. Li Mu communicated with Spielberg in private and said to him: "Steven, if you are anxious to return to the United States, After daybreak, you should go back as you originally planned. Anne will be taken care of by me in China, but I have to ask you something. The current situation is still unknown, so I hope you will not tell the media. disclose."
Spielberg immediately said: "Lee, I will stay and wait for Annie to get better before we go back together. I brought her here. I can't leave her alone."
As he spoke, he added: "But don't worry, I will tell the other shareholders not to talk nonsense after they go back."
Li Mu nodded. If Spielberg doesn't want to leave, then let him stay here with him. It just so happens that he can find an opportunity to talk to him about "Flying Tigers" in depth.
The hospital is not a place to stay for a long time, and Anne Hathaway could not be seen, so Li Mu left the hospital with everyone. Vice Mayor Xu was worried that Li Mu had something wrong with him, so he insisted on asking the director to arrange for a professional nurse to treat Li Mu. He kept track of Li Mu’s health, took Li Mu’s temperature every day, and was responsible for disinfecting and protecting Li Mu’s residence.
Li Mu insisted on refusing, but Deputy Mayor Xu refused to agree to anything. He held Li Mu's hand and forced him to agree before letting him go.
Li Mu was really helpless, and finally thought about it. If a nurse contacted him, then he would have a better way to understand the hospital and the situation of the epidemic, so he nodded and agreed.
Unexpectedly, Vice Mayor Xu turned to the dean and told him something that made Li Mu almost vomit blood: "Dean, please arrange for a careful and experienced nurse to be responsible for Mr. Li's health, but you must pay attention to it. After the candidate is confirmed, , conduct her quarantine observation for two to three days to ensure that she has no fever symptoms, and then let her come into contact with Mr. Li. Once she starts to come into contact with Mr. Li, she should not come to the hospital again to minimize the risk, do you understand?"
The dean immediately nodded and assured: "Mayor Xu, don't worry, I understand!"
Li Mu secretly thought that in this way, even if a nurse is assigned to connect with him, the nurse may not have first-hand information, but this is safe. Otherwise, if a nurse shuttles between the hospital and his own home every day, it will be a bit risky. This fate is not brought by strong winds. You have to be more cautious and not be too pretentious.
And after all, she is a nurse in the hospital. Even if she does not come to work for a while, she can still find out the specific situation of the hospital through her colleagues, which is much more convenient than external information.
…
Dragging his exhausted body back home, Li Mu was no longer sleepy. He did not expect that Anne Hathaway, who had traveled thousands of miles to come to China, would give him the opportunity he had been looking forward to. With today's experience, he would have a positive impact on his follow-up. Everything is explained perfectly.
Therefore, Li Mu no longer made any further delays. He called Senior Brother Liu who was still sleeping deeply and called him to his home. He also called his assistant Li Ziwei over, ready to talk to the two of them first and make strategic preparations. .
The sleepy-eyed Senior Brother Liu hurried over. He didn't know what the big deal was for Li Mu calling him here so early. Li Ziwei looked calm and came directly with her notebook.
The three of them sat down on the sofa in the living room. Li Mu first told them about Anne Hathaway's situation, including the recent serious infectious disease epidemic.
Senior Brother Liu heard that there was an infectious disease epidemic, but he didn't take it too seriously and said: "To be honest, our country is vast and there are so many people. Occasionally, if there is influenza or bird flu somewhere, it doesn't seem to be a big deal. It's not necessary." Are you too nervous?"
Li Mu nodded: "You are right, but sometimes, you have to deny that the people's judgment is not rational enough. If news about bird flu breaks out somewhere, the consumption of chicken and eggs by the people across the country may be greatly reduced. Chicken farms It also suffered heavy losses. It is possible that the bird flu did not threaten the lives of a few people in total, but the public’s overreaction will cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of farmers hundreds of millions of yuan or more in losses.”
"That's true." Senior Brother Liu nodded in agreement, and then asked Li Mu: "Then what do you have in mind?"
Li Mu said seriously: "I was in the hospital yesterday and felt that the situation this time might be different from previous influenza epidemics. This time everyone from the hospital to Deputy Mayor Xu was very cautious. I was wondering whether the infectious disease that appeared this time might be different." It's a bit trickier than before. Now it has only caused some rumors and panic around Shenzhen City. If it spreads across the country, the impact will be huge. If it causes panic among the people across the country, it will definitely cause unrest. There are fewer social problems, so we have to use our advantages to prepare in advance.”
Senior Brother Liu was a little confused. In fact, he had never experienced anything like SARS, so he didn't know what "us" and "advantage" Li Mu mentioned.
Li Ziwei was also very surprised and asked Li Mu: "Mr. Li, this should be a matter for the government and the country. Only the country has the ability to deal with it. What can we solve?"
Li Mu said seriously: "I'm not sure how the country will prepare and respond, but I'm worried about what if the local government conceals the report and senior leaders are unable to get relevant information about the incident in time. If local concealment affects the country's overall policy control, then the national response will be delayed, and the entire society will be affected."
At this point, Li Mu paused for a moment, and then added: "We are businessmen and do not participate in politics, but we cannot be without a sense of social responsibility, so we must fulfill our obligations and prepare for the possible social impacts."
Senior Brother Liu nodded slightly and said, "I will listen to you, just tell me what to do!"
Li Mu said: "I just mentioned our advantage. Where does this advantage lie? It actually lies in Taobao."
Li Ziwei looked surprised. She thought that the advantage Li Mu mentioned was YY. After all, YY's information delivery capability is very powerful and should have a great effect at critical moments. However, she never expected that the advantage Li Mu mentioned was Taobao. This e-commerce platform.
Senior Brother Liu figured out some of the key points and asked Li Mu in surprise: "You don't want to stock up on supplies in advance?!"
Li Mu smiled and snapped his fingers: "Yes, we need to stock up on supplies in advance! In the face of major social panic, supplies are the best stabilizer! Our Taobao network has covered more and more users, and our Taobao logistics has already Getting stronger and stronger, we also have multiple warehousing bases of our own. In this case, if we stockpile corresponding materials from around the world in advance, then once the society has this demand, we can immediately use Taobao and Taobao Logistics to The whole society delivers necessary supplies.”
“When the time comes, the materials we hoard will play a role: where materials are really needed, we will allocate them; where there is panic due to shortage of corresponding materials, we will transport materials there and distribute them reasonably; we Use a large amount of supplies to protect the defense against the epidemic, speed up the resolution of the epidemic, and ease people's fears; moreover, as long as we have a large amount of supplies in hand, we can also flexibly prevent profiteers across the country from raising prices and inhibit others from malicious hoarding. Supplies! If anyone dares to speculate on epidemic prevention supplies, we will immediately dispatch a large amount of supplies to the area where he operates to sell them at a reduced price. Not only will his desire to raise prices be frustrated, but we will also make them lose all their money!"
Senior Brother Liu regained his energy, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked, "Then how much money should we spend to hoard supplies?"
Li Mu said seriously: "We only charge the cost of all related materials and do not earn a penny of profit. In the first phase, at least 2 billion yuan will be used from Taobao's reserve fund pool to hoard related materials. At the same time, Taobao and Makino Technology will invest together." 100 million yuan to purchase top-notch medical protective equipment in the international market!”
