Chapter 600 Big Problem

How much money do you need?

Life is fleeting, all for a few coins, yet those few coins can ease all sorrows.

Pukin was slightly taken aback, not expecting Lin Xiaohe to be so straightforward.

Lin Xiaohe didn't receive a reply from Pujin, assuming he hadn't been able to contact a suitable doctor, so she spoke up.

"Do you need my help to contact a doctor? Our Dongguk Capital Fuwai Hospital is a national team in the field of cardiovascular medicine in our country. Academician Zhu Xiaodong, the hospital's president, is a leading figure in this field. He was elected as an academician of the Dongguk Academy of Engineering last year and was the first in the country to develop a bioprosthetic valve and successfully use it in clinical practice."

These kinds of medical experts are hard to invite, but Lin Xiaohe thought that if she pulled some strings, she should be able to get one.

If the surgery schedule is long, I'll rent them a place in the capital and hire a caregiver to ease Putin's worries.

Putin was madly in love.

His trip to the Eastern Kingdom greatly increased his goodwill towards it.

Lin Xiaohe continued, "The Shanghai Cardiovascular Disease Research Institute is also good. Its director, Chen Haozhu, is an authority on cardiovascular diseases and one of the founders of invasive diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases in my country. As early as 1973, he performed the first selective coronary angiography in my country."

Putin took a deep breath: "Thank you, Lin, thank you so much. I'll consult my teacher first, and then I'll call you back later."

Ten minutes later, Putin called again.

He swallowed a sigh, his eyes filled with guilt, and said, "Lin, I'm sorry, but our teacher would prefer to go to France."

France has the Paris-based La Riboissiere Hospital, which boasts world-class experts whose international reputation far surpasses that of the two experts from East Asia.

Not to mention, psychologically, Sobchak is closer to the West.

This is like asking a heart patient in the 21st century to choose between a hospital in a beautiful country and a hospital in a small African country.

Lin Xiaohe understood Sobchak's decision: "It's okay, my friend. You may need to wait a few more days due to procedural issues."

"Thank you, I really don't know what to say. Lin, you are my dearest friend, may our friendship last forever."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaohe immediately went to raise funds and prepare the necessary paperwork.

Fortunately, it was late July. At the beginning of the month, Dongguo had just promulgated new foreign exchange management regulations, relaxing foreign exchange controls on individuals.

Even so, individuals must report to the State Administration of Foreign Exchange if their foreign exchange remittances exceed US$5000.

It is virtually impossible for an individual to remit 50 yuan to Russia.

The government maintains strict controls on capital projects such as overseas investment by individuals. Fortunately, Lin Xiaohe was experienced and spent a full week preparing the complicated paperwork.

Many insiders were quite puzzled by this, and dared not say anything to Lin Xiaohe's face, but they whispered about it behind her back.

"Lin Xiaohe is really crazy. Does she think she's Lü Buwei? How much money has she spent to win over Putin?"

"Ha, I never expected that she would be so tough on the outside but act more like a Western worshipper than anyone else. Several hundred thousand enamel pieces, enough for an ordinary person to live on for a lifetime."

"Just you wait, the organization won't let her off easily. Putin can't rise again, so all this money is just a waste." No one relayed these gossips to Lin Xiaohe's ears. Instead, Lin's older brother, feeling resentful after hearing the news, called Lin Xiaohe.

"Sis, if you have money to burn, give it to me. I want to buy a villa and drive a luxury car."

Lin Xiaohe didn't say anything at the time, but after hanging up the phone, she called Wang Shuxiang and said, "Your son wants to live in a villa and drive a luxury car."

Wang Shuxiang glared at him and said irritably, "He looks like he owns a villa and a luxury car! Girl, go for it with confidence. I guarantee no one in the family will hold you back."

Wang Shuxiang grabbed Lao Lin's ear with one hand, put her other hand on her hip, and held a microphone to her shoulder, saying in a loud voice, "Don't care what others say, it's just 50 yuan, our family can afford it! When making friends, you either give money or effort. What's the use of just saying you're sincere if you don't give a penny or put in any effort?"

Old Lin grimaced in pain, muttering under his breath, "Comrade Wang Shuxiang, your thinking is very dangerous. All you talk about is money."

Wang Shuxiang sneered: "Back then, if you hadn't been a cadre, hadn't had a job, hadn't brought me food and drink every day, and hadn't done farm work for my family for a year straight, would I have dated you? Would my dad have allowed me to marry you? Even sparrows know to build a nest when they're courting a mate. If our girl wants to do something big, doesn't she have to invest first?"

Lin Xiaohe on the other end of the phone smiled, her eyes crinkling.

Wang Shuxiang's transformation is truly delightful.

If everyone else could support me as steadfastly as Wang Shuxiang, wouldn't I be able to easily control this pivotal world?!

August 1st arrived quickly. As the wheels rolled over every inch of the bumpy road in the Tienan District, Chen Guang's notebook was filled with more and more text.

When he appeared in Lin Xiaohe's office, unshaven and looking like a wild man, the notebook was already completely filled with writing.

At the same time, the research and planning tasks that Lin Xiaohe had assigned to his subordinates were also due for final review.

Having served as Lin Xiaohe's assistant for so long, Chen Guang, through his observation and experience, accurately identified a fatal flaw in the Tienan District.

That is, the density of enterprises in the Tienan District is almost the highest in the country, crowded like sardines, with industrial land and residential land interspersed, narrow and congested roads, making it difficult for large trucks to enter and exit, and logistics costs remain high.

More importantly, most of the infrastructure in the Tienan District was built with Soviet aid decades ago. The underground pipelines are corroded and aging, with serious leaks and drips, and the power load cannot meet the needs of modern industrial production.

The problem went unnoticed by the public simply because most factories were shut down. Electricity could supply the 21 pilot enterprises, and road transport capacity was prioritized for them. Goods from other struggling factories had to be put on hold.

However, once the third batch of pilot programs is launched, the above problems will erupt all at once, restricting the production and sales of enterprises.

This is no small matter.

Lin Xiaohe sat up straight, her expression solemn, and carefully reviewed the report submitted by Chen Guang.

To be honest, that was something she overlooked.

Whether in the Black Hole Interstellar Federation, on Earth, or on Blue Star, she doesn't need to worry about power lines or land planning.

The Interstellar Federation has countless planets, most of which have less than half of their land utilized, and many are even barren.

Earth and the Eastern countries on Blue Star have long been infrastructure powerhouses, generating hydroelectric, wind, and solar power, among other types of electricity, enough not only for their own use but also for export.

As she pondered, Chen Guang's eyes were bloodshot, and he summarized in a hoarse voice: "Leader, the problem in Tienan District is not just with enterprise development, but with the entire city's planning! The industrial layout has reached its limit, and the entire social structure is failing. Relying solely on pilot enterprises cannot drive the overall situation."
