Vézé shook hands with Uncle En politely and was ready to end the meeting. Suddenly, he heard some commotion outside. A moment later, the head of the guard regiment on duty pushed the door and walked in. He came to Vézé and said in a low voice, "Commander-in-chief, a European who came this time fainted. After a simple examination, the doctor said that he seemed to have a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. "
He didn't expect such a thing to happen. Vézé's first thought was that the guy couldn't stand the stimulation of being driven away and was so angry that he got sick? But Vézé could only think about it. Vézé immediately said, "Hurry up and send him to the hospital."
"He has been sent to the hospital. But the doctor said one thing … "The head of the guard regiment said with a slightly embarrassed expression," Commander-in-chief, the latest decree said that if there is a death from such an acute illness, the hospital will conduct an autopsy. These Europeans don't have family members to sign. "
"Oh …" Vézé remembered this matter. The bill he pushed hard for was finally passed. After introducing the situation to Uncle En, Vézé said, "Mr. Engels, I don't know if you or the others who came with you can sign as family members."
Uncle En frowned slightly. He didn't expect China to come up with such a system. Autopsies in Europe were mainly used to deal with cases of execution. "Has China popularized the autopsy system?" Uncle En asked doubtfully.
"Don't mention it." This matter was also a very difficult choice for Vézé. He was also very unhappy about it. "Autopsy is of great significance to medicine. I can only force it to pass and increase publicity. But this kind of thing is often misunderstood by family members. If you insist on opposing it, in case of death, we will only care about cremation. "
"I'll go to the hospital first." Uncle En couldn't make a decision and could only carry out the most urgent treatment.
Vézé was just about to go back, so he took a car to the hospital with Uncle En. The Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University School of Medicine was the nearest big hospital to Vézé. Those ordinary hospitals couldn't diagnose and effectively treat cases of cerebral hemorrhage. When he saw the hospital in the car, Uncle En was a little dazed.
This was a hospital that was nearly two kilometers long and wide. It was located near the center of Nanjing, and the buildings within the green walls were dense. The street they were passing through had three gates, and the gates were crowded with people coming and going.
"So beautiful," Uncle En said in English.
Vézé sighed and said in Chinese, "The direction of your concern is really strange."
"Why do you say that?" Uncle En asked with a broken European accent.
"You know Chinese?" Vézé was shocked. He tried to answer in English.
"If you speak Mandarin and don't speak too fast, I can understand you. I don't understand your accents. "Uncle En explained.
Soon, the two of them reached an agreement. Vézé and Uncle En conversed in Chinese English and Chinese. There was no need for an interpreter to explain. The communication between the two became rather smooth in an instant. Uncle En sighed at the cleanliness of China's hospitals. The painted iron railings were green inside and outside. Even if there was a smell of disinfectant, the grass, trees, and flowers immediately gave the hospital a good first impression.
Although the Chinese people who went in and out of the hospital didn't look happy, Uncle En said in Chinese English, "Europe generally believes that patients who go to the hospital probably don't have much chance to come out. Being sent to the hospital is considered a prelude to the funeral. "
"That's because there are too many infectious diseases in Europe." Vézé immediately pointed out the problem. China's epidemic prevention system was popularizing various vaccines. In particular, the nearly 30 years of efforts to modify the tuberculosis vaccine had made great changes in China's hospitals. In the past, the hospital system mainly dealt with infectious diseases. Through the popularization of smallpox, plague, cholera, and tuberculosis vaccines, the proportion of infectious diseases in China was getting lower and lower. Non-infectious diseases began to become the main treatment target of China's hospitals. Non-infectious diseases had a very high chance of being cured and discharged.
After saying this, Vézé couldn't help but complain, "In the face of non-infectious diseases, autopsies become very important. In the past, these diseases didn't have so much experience at all. The characteristics of the disease, the mechanism, all needed a lot of practice and research to complete. But the proportion of people who agree to autopsies is very low. It also needs to be understood with reason and moved with emotion. There are even many family members of patients who feel that this is a contribution to the country and think that they should get some compensation from the country. There are even some family members of patients who vent their anger on this set of things, saying that autopsies don't solve the problem. Either the doctor doesn't work hard, or the doctor is incompetent. In short, the pressure is very high. "
"Your Excellency is really an excellent administrative officer." Uncle En's accent made it hard to tell whether he was praising or mocking.
Vézé didn't doubt Uncle En's realm. He sighed and said, "Social progress is a very difficult process. I accept being scolded. People who can calmly accept that they have to undergo an autopsy after death must have a very high realm. They know that it's over when they die, and the dead body is just a body. Or, after long-term social brainwashing education, they form the brain circuit that autopsies are the right and normal thing to do. Otherwise, the opposition is the majority. "
With Vézé's English level, he couldn't express his meaning in fluent English. He couldn't even express his meaning completely in English. Therefore, he spoke in both English and Mandarin. Not only did Uncle En not feel that there was any problem in communicating with Vézé, but he felt that this kind of communication was more relaxed and lively than sitting still. It could be seen that everything Vézé did was to complete the communication, and Uncle En also thought that it was good to understand.
"Why is it like this?" Uncle En asked. He didn't want to get out of the car either. This kind of discussion felt really good.
Vézé smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Because everyone thinks of autopsies, their brain circuits naturally won't give people the feeling that they are dead at this time. Everyone will either think that they saw a knife cutting the body, or think that they are lying on the operating table being cut. With this kind of association, how can there still be a reaction of approval. "
"Haha." Uncle En nodded repeatedly and nodded while laughing.
"But, this must be implemented. Even if it has to be persisted for 50 or 100 years, even if it has to rely on the persistence of several generations to promote this point of view, autopsies must become a system. This is a system that can promote the development of medicine. " After Vézé complained, he quickly regained his usual calmness. Complaining was one thing, but Vézé would stick to what he had decided.
After laughing twice, Uncle En put away his smile, "Your Excellency, I came to China this time to prepare to participate in China's revolution. If I understand correctly, Your Excellency doesn't want me to be Your Excellency's private minister, nor do you want me to become a bureaucrat of China. Your Excellency wants me to participate in the cause of China's revolution, right? "
Vézé was shocked and he nodded repeatedly, "Your Excellency is right. I want to invite you to participate in the cause of the revolution. But why have you thought it through now? "
"I see that as an excellent administrative official, Your Excellency doesn't think that administration is about management, but to solve problems and serve the people. Just like when I saw the slogan 'Serve the people wholeheartedly'. With this judgment, I can be at ease with Your Excellency. You have to know that many people who hold the banner of socialism, many people who propose that the government should be the leader, are all shouting that for the country and society, we need more prisons, we need more police. "Uncle En's words were also a mixture of English and Chinese, but it was clear that he was in a good mood.
"More prisons, more police?" Vézé smiled. He suspected that Uncle En was aware of the crackdown that the government would carry out every once in a while. Although Vézé thought that there was probably no need for a crackdown in the future, he was never stingy with violence. This was one of the methods that Vézé used to deal with social difficulties.
"But Your Excellency, I really want to know what you think about the Sino-American war. Can you tell me your personal opinion? "Uncle En changed the topic.
"As I said, domestic problems can be solved abroad. I personally hope that this war will be China's last overseas war. After we finish swallowing the land, China's army will be completely transformed into an army to defend the country. We will not take the initiative to start a war, even if there is another war in the future, China will not ask the other party to cede land. Of course, this time we will not adopt the direct method of ceding land. With the characteristics of the Yankee's banditry, we will make the Midwestern states of the United States declare their independence from the United States and merge with China. "Vézé did not hide anything from Uncle En. Speaking the truth to a smart person was the most beneficial approach.
"You will accept the local foreigners?" Uncle En showed a surprised expression.
"Hmph!" Vézé sneered, "The Yankee arrived in that land only a few decades earlier than us. A large number of the so-called Yankee in that land are immigrants who arrived in the last few years or in the last decade. If they are willing to recognize that land as China's territory, if their wish is just to live a good life on that land. Why don't we accept the existence of those people? "
Uncle En stopped talking for a while. The European newspapers were full of reports about the war between China and the United States. "China wants to kill all Americans!" "China wants to avenge the Indians!" These kinds of headlines occupied most of the articles. Therefore, sensational headlines attracted more attention. Uncle En was not surprised by this. But from what Vézé said, China's intention to cede the United States was extremely firm, but it had no intention of massacring the American people.
"Do you think we can turn Europeans into Chinese?" Uncle En asked tentatively.
"I don't think we can turn Europeans into Chinese. I have never been a racist." Vézé defended himself.
"Then are you going to use the method of bloodline integration?" Uncle En continued to ask questions.
"The future China will provide a way of life, an industrialized way of life. Of course, those people will find that one of the political foundations of this way of life is materialism, and one of the political positions is anti-religion. This may make a large number of people feel uncomfortable. Our general education in China will teach Chinese, and Chinese will be the only official language and examination language in China. But this is done to reduce the operating costs of society, not to destroy other cultures. In places where there is no official rule that Chinese must be used, they are free to speak whatever language they want. This country is only named the Chinese Min dynasty. The ancestral bloodline of the country's people is not the basis of various considerations. This is a country provided by the constitution of freedom, equality, and democracy. It is a country based on the rule of law. The Chinese Min dynasty is not a country with some characteristics of human masters. Of course, I do not want this to be a country ruled by capitalists. "
After listening to Vézé's introduction, Uncle En did not immediately express his position. He continued to ask, "This is the future, and what should we do to solve the current domestic problems abroad?"
