On April 11, 2024, a news about the imminent listing of Li Lanjuan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and her subsidiary Shulan Medical Group quickly occupied major news headlines. According to reports, Academician Li Lanjuan is worth as much as 4 billion yuan, a figure that not only reflects Academician Li's outstanding achievements in the medical field, but also highlights her extraordinary vision in the business field. However, the repercussions of this news among the public are quite mixed, with some praising them, some questioning them, and some even expressing concern.
As an outstanding representative in the field of infectious diseases (infectious diseases) in mainland China, Academician Li Lanjuan is not only a pioneer of Chinese artificial liver, but also a leader of the national key discipline of infectious diseases. Her outstanding contributions to the clinical, scientific research and teaching of infectious diseases, especially in the diagnosis and treatment of various hepatitis, infectious diseases and emerging infectious diseases, have been widely recognized by her peers at home and abroad. She has not only cured countless patients, but also made major breakthroughs in the field of liver disease microecology research, and made indelible contributions to the medical cause of the mainland.
As an enterprise owned by Academician Li Lanjuan, Shulan Medical Group has won wide acclaim from the society for its advanced medical technology and considerate service since its establishment. Now, Shulan Medical is about to be listed, which is undoubtedly the best affirmation of the efforts of Academician Li Lanjuan and her team for many years. The listing will not only mean that Shulan Medical will receive more financial support, thereby promoting its further development in the medical field, but also will create more employment opportunities and economic benefits for the society.
However, the response to the news was not entirely positive. On the one hand, some people praised Academician Li Lanjuan's commercial success, believing that it was a well-deserved reward for her years of hard work, and at the same time saw the great potential brought by the combination of medical field and commercial capital. They believe that with the listing of Shulan Medical, the level of medical services in mainland China will be further improved, and more patients will benefit from it.
On the other hand, some people have expressed concerns about Academician Li Lanjuan's business behavior. They are worried that with the involvement of commercial capital, the public welfare nature of medicine may be affected. They are concerned that once listed, Shulan Medical may face pressure to maximize profits, thus ignoring the actual needs of patients, and may even lead to problems such as uneven distribution of medical resources. In addition, some people questioned the value of Academician Li Lanjuan, believing that this figure was too high and not proportional to his contribution to the medical field.
I believe that it is necessary to think deeply about these concerns and doubts. First of all, we should be clear that medicine and business are not two completely opposite fields. In fact, the intervention of commercial capital can bring more resources and innovation to the medical field, thereby promoting the rapid development of medicine. Of course, this does not mean that we can ignore the possible negative impact of commercial capital, but we should reasonably guide the development of commercial capital on the premise of ensuring the public welfare nature of medicine.
Secondly, we should look at the issue of Academician Li Lanjuan's worth with a more rational and objective attitude. The level of worth depends not only on the contribution and efforts of the individual, but also on a variety of factors, including the market environment, the size of the enterprise, etc. Therefore, we should not judge a person's worth and contribution simply by their worth.
Finally, I believe that we should maintain a supportive and encouraging attitude towards Academician Li Lanjuan and her team. As an outstanding representative of the medical field in the mainland, she has not only made great contributions to the medical cause of the mainland, but also made remarkable achievements in the business field. We should believe that she will continue to uphold the public welfare nature of medicine and provide high-quality medical services to more patients. At the same time, we should also encourage more talents in the medical field to actively participate in the business field and jointly promote the rapid development of the medical industry in the mainland.
In short, the news that Academician Li Lanjuan is worth 4 billion yuan and Shulan Medical has aroused widespread attention and discussion in the society. We should look at this phenomenon with a more rational and objective attitude, both to see the role of commercial capital in promoting the medical field, but also to be wary of its possible negative effects. At the same time, we should also maintain an attitude of support and encouragement to Academician Li Lanjuan and her team, and believe that they will continue to make greater contributions to the medical cause of the mainland.
