Through this small program, we received help information from more than 400 overseas Chinese in just over twenty hours. Of course, we naturally quickly grasped the general situation. At the same time, we also set up a help patient WeChat group, these overseas Chinese who asked for help, according to the information provided by our "online shelter", invited them to the group, so that we solved the problem of face-to-face consultations between experts and patients.
[Commentary] Talking about the original intention of building an online hospital, Zhu Jinliang said frankly that everything will begin in mid-March when the second batch of Chinese experts in the Italian anti-epidemic medical team arrived in Milan.

When the expert team arrived, we urgently convened a meeting. The expert group asked us to help provide information on the current status of overseas Chinese infections. Because there are nearly 200,000 overseas Chinese living in the northern territories, the area is relatively large, and it is difficult for us to count. In order to solve this problem, we, together with Director Zhou Jianhuang of the China Help Center and several young partners of the China-Italy Business Association, as well as the young partners of the Milan (Overseas Chinese) Youth (Union) Association, also formed a temporary emergency team to plan Through a small program, we have temporarily launched an "over-line cabin hospital" for Italian overseas Chinese.
[Commentary] The "Online Fang Cabin Hospital" was jointly prepared by the Milan Overseas Chinese Regiment, and the Chinese aid Italian anti-epidemic expert group provided medical services. Up to now, the platform has accumulated more than 1,000 overseas Chinese and foreign students who have registered for consultation. Medical experts consulted overseas Chinese through video connections and prescribed symptomatic prescriptions. Zhu Jinliang said that on the first day of the launch of the mini-program, the expert team was busy until three o'clock in the morning and prescribed hundreds of medicines. In Italy under the epidemic, courier companies have ceased operations, and overseas Chinese do not dare to go out at home. How can so many medicine packages be delivered to overseas Chinese?

It was difficult for us to find a suitable solution for a while. Later, the heads of several overseas Chinese groups volunteered to be the "human flesh" to deliver medicine, especially Li Xiutong, our honorary chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, he said, I ’ll deliver the patient ’s medicine. ”After saying this, everyone was boiling blood. It was really urgent for the overseas Chinese. Several colleagues soon took the task of delivering medicine with human flesh. What moved them was that they often needed to be hungry. Because all the restaurants are closed during the day, running around in the hardest hit areas, sometimes it takes a few hours to go back and forth. When we finished the medicine for the overseas Chinese, we heard the message from the overseas Chinese the next day, saying that I was better after last night. , Then our hearts are very comforting.
[Commentary] When asked about how the Chamber of Commerce in China can help Chinese businessmen overcome difficulties, Zhu Jinliang said that the current Italian epidemic situation is still severe and the Chinese businessmen are facing tremendous pressure. The Chamber of Commerce of the Overseas Chinese Association in Italy is calling on the Chinese businessmen to help each other and help each other to warm up. Maintain communication with the local government and strive for more overseas Chinese policies for Chinese businessmen.

At present, I think the most important thing for Chinese business enterprises is to ensure the safety of the lives of all our employees and the health of employees. Of course, our chamber of commerce will certainly also establish some WeChat groups for mutual assistance among Chinese businessmen. We will share some good information, we will share each other, support each other, will encourage each other, and will hold each other. There are also many overseas Chinese groups and chambers of commerce in Milan. Everyone can send these difficulties to the group. The chamber of commerce also provides some support and help as much as possible. We will definitely have a very good communication with the local government. Well, when it comes to some tax reduction and subsidy policies, the Italian government has now begun to do so. I believe that in the future, Chinese companies should be treated equally with Italian companies.
