I've been battling on, par for the course in the internet industry. I
seem to remember you're in healthcare?

You seem to be very much in the loop.

 I think that investing in healthcare is a good choice. Think about it, as
health reform gathers steam, there will be so much opportunity for
development for China's healthcare industry, with the transition
towards a service-orientated market.

B: 是啊。而且人们的健康观念也在不断进步，从原来的有病治病转变为预
防和治疗并重，这也为健康医疗的发展提供了更广阔的空间。

shì a。 érqiě rénmen de jiànkāng guānniàn yě zài bùduàn jìnbù，

cóng yuánlái de yǒubìng zhìbìng zhuǎnbiàn wéi yùfáng hé zhìliáo
bìngzhòng， zhè yě wèi jiànkāng yīliáo de fāzhǎn tígōng le gèng
guǎngkuò de kōngjiān。

Yes. People's awareness of health is continually advancing, from the

original notion of getting treated for an illness when you get it,
there's been a move towards treating preventative medicine and
treatment with equal weight, which has provided more room for the
development of health treatments.

A: 我是搞医药的，你是搞互联网的。我们要整合现有的资源。互联网对整
个医疗行业的改革是必然的趋势。传统的医疗保健机构工作效率非常低
，浪费了大量的时间和成本。

wǒ shì gǎo yīyào de， nǐ shì gǎo hùliánwǎng de。 wǒmen yào
zhěnghé xiànyǒu de zīyuán。 hùliánwǎng duì zhěnggè yīliáo hángyè

gōngzuò xiàolǜ fēicháng dī， làngfèi le dàliàng de shíjiān hé
chéngběn。

I'm in pharmaceuticals and you work in the internet sector. We

should pool our resources. Use of the internet in the reform of the
healthcare industry is an inevitable trend. Traditional healthcare
bodies are very inefficient and they waste a lot of time and money.

B: 我们可以考虑做一个手机APP，通过移动互联方式改变排队就医的问题
。比如说开发一个产品，能实现线上挂号、缴费、查看检查报告等等功
能。

wǒmen kěyǐ kǎolǜ zuò yī gè shǒujī APP， tōngguò Yídòng hùlián

 děngdeng gōngnéng。

We could think about making a mobile app, using mobile internet to

resolve the issue of having to line up at the doctor's office. For
example we could develop a product that could make an
appointment online as well as allowing people to pay fees and see
the results of the health checks online.

A: 这个主意不错！

zhège zhǔyi bùcuò！

That's a good idea!

B: 嗯，不过我们需要和医院达成合作意向，因为需要将医院的系统接入我
们的产品。

ng4， bùguò wǒmen xūyào hé yīyuàn dáchéng hézuò yìxiàng，

yīnwèi xūyào jiāng yīyuàn de xìtǒng jiērù wǒmen de chǎnpǐn。

Yes, but we'd have to get the hospitals to agree to it, because we'd
have to connect the hospital system to our product.

A: 这个我来想办法，毕竟我在医药行业待了这么多年，还是有点关系的。

zhège wǒ lái xiǎng bànfǎ， bìjìng wǒ zài yīyào hángyè dài le zhème
duō nián， háishì yǒudiǎnr guānxi de。

I can deal with that, given that I've been in the pharmaceuticals
industry for so many years, I have a few contacts.

B: 好，那我就负责产品和吸引客户。

hǎo， nà wǒ jiù fùzé chǎnpǐn hé xīyǐn kèhù。

OK, then I'll take responsibility for the product and for attracting
users to register.
