Chapter 443: Chapter 214: Each for Their Own Interests, Original Intentions_3

The designer doesn’t have experience running a clinic, so many things are taken for granted.

"Why would customers buy medicine from my clinic? There are pharmacies and clinics everywhere. Do you think they come all the way to see me because I’m handsome?"

Li Jingsheng noticed his tone was a bit sharp.

He made a joke to smooth things over, lightening the mood a bit.

"If you’re going to design, you must follow my requirements. If there are any unreasonable parts, bring them up again. My requirements are practicality, seriousness, yet a touch of warmth. Also, treatment must be the priority, with medicine sales secondary; we absolutely cannot reverse the order."

Li Jingsheng’s attitude was very firm.

"But if we design according to your requirements, I’m afraid Best Medicine won’t approve it!"

The designer was no pushover either.

He used this to pressure him.

Their interests were surely in conflict.

"If it really can’t get approved, it’s not my problem; it’s your design that’s problematic. You can communicate with Best Medicine right now. I want this free renovation spot, but that doesn’t mean it has to be completely renovated into what they want. Their goal is for me to sell more drugs, and I have that need, so it will definitely be considered."

After speaking, Li Jingsheng was ready to leave.

If it really didn’t work out, he would invest in the renovation himself and decline the 200,000 renovation subsidy.

Because this matter concerns the clinic’s future.

It would be an international joke to turn his clinic into a pharmacy. Would it still be Sunshine Clinic then?

Such short-sighted behavior only for immediate benefits; he would never agree to it.

The foundation of Sunshine Clinic must be medical skills and treatment, not wellness drugs.

This he understood very clearly.

To put it more grandly, his original intention cannot be shaken.

The designer’s female assistant looked at Li Jingsheng with some surprise.

Perhaps she didn’t expect such an elegant and gentle man to be so assertive.

"I’ll call to communicate right now."

The designer also realized that this clinic owner was no rookie, nor someone he could easily manipulate.

Seeing this momentum, if he persisted in only considering the client’s interests, Li Jingsheng would definitely not agree.

"You communicate first, I’ll take a look around."

Li Jingsheng went to check how the exterior painting was going.

Before long, Manager Hu personally called him.

"Dr. Li, I heard you got angry at the designers! Were you very dissatisfied with their renovation plan?"

"Manager Hu, we can be considered old acquaintances, old friends. I am very grateful for your care these past months, so I’ll speak frankly. What I pursue is saving lives, not merely selling medicines for profit. If my new clinic is to be turned into a pharmacy-oriented model, then I won’t need your company’s renovation subsidy."

On the other end of the line, Manager Hu was silent for about two seconds.

Then he said, "I didn’t expect Dr. Li to have such sentiments and lofty pursuits. I will discuss this matter with headquarters’ specialists and get back to you."

Li Jingsheng’s tone softened a little.

"Every pharmacy or clinic has its own characteristics. The reason my clinic’s medicine sales are good is actually because it uses the clinic’s reputation as credit, which in turn boosts medicine sales. So I ask Manager Hu to explain Sunshine Clinic’s real situation to headquarters. To put it bluntly, even if it follows your company’s unified renovation ideas, it may not necessarily be applicable to my clinic, and might even reduce sales."

"Okay, okay, I indeed didn’t consider this thoroughly, and I will convey it well to headquarters."

After hearing this, Manager Hu’s tone showed noticeably more respect for Li Jingsheng.

Whether it’s the sentiment of saving lives or exploring in-depth pharmaceutical sales, Li Jingsheng taught him a lesson today.

This is a respectable, wise, and visionary clinic owner.

...

Though dissatisfied with the two designers, Li Jingsheng still decided to treat them to lunch.

Of course, it was just regular boxed lunches.

As for Master Shun and others, they had already finished for the day and gone for meals.

It had been agreed in advance that after Li Jingsheng contracted them for the renovation, he wouldn’t handle other matters.

These guerillas were all old hands; if you don’t negotiate the price thoroughly, they could completely learn from the Africans – jobs that could be done in one day, they’d stretch them to ten days or so.

Around 1 o’clock in the afternoon, Manager Hu called again.

After negotiation, headquarters agreed to the renovation plan proposed by Li Jingsheng, but required him to maintain his sales at least for two months before they could reimburse the 200,000 renovation subsidy.

Otherwise, they could only handle it according to the rules, reducing the renovation subsidy.

This plan was beneficial to both parties, and Li Jingsheng gladly accepted it.

Each store has its own character.

Every pharmacy or clinic has its own characteristics, and since it’s not part of a chain, it definitely couldn’t be renovated directly into a Best Medicine pharmacy according to their requirements!

This matter was considered resolved.

The designers redesigned according to his requirements, this time focusing entirely on treatment, with drug sales supplementary.

These two people were actually quite professional, with many design proposals that were really excellent.

The renovation was in full swing.

Days passed like this, one after another.

Li Jingsheng was very busy every day, and occasionally Professor Wu in the Orthopedics Department of the Second Hospital would have Ou Qinglan ask him to work overtime for surgery.

When his girlfriend asked, unless something very special happened, Li Jingsheng usually agreed.

Performing surgery significantly enhanced his medical skills as well.

One could tell that Professor Wu truly kept his promise by trying his best to nurture Ou Qinglan, giving her some training opportunities.

She had also begun to get busier lately.

Busy practicing suturing, knotting, and other basic surgical skills.

She would often run to the clinic to find Li Jingsheng to teach her.

With regard to his woman, Li Jingsheng was never stingy; he naturally shared everything he knew. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Her surgical practice skills improved noticeably, a marked improvement every day.

That day, while Li Jingsheng was busy in the clinic, the landlord’s wife arrived. Her large frame had to squeeze through just one glass door to get in.
