Devon isn't exactly honest. He tries to hide doubts about himself and relationships with words about the high vocation of a doctor. He didn't have such a successful device, there are only 2 subjects so far, everything is in the process. It is still unknown whether the bracelet will survive to mass production and whether it will make a profit. It is premature to build plans for the future around one prototype. Besides, it was a joint development and not a personal achievement. The student loan must be paid monthly..And then there's another sympathy, the engagement may get upset.
So he doesn't want to go to Flint Valley to promote the device. He spoke, just the opposite, about the vocation to be a doctor and work in a hospital. "I wouldn't trade the worst day in Chastain for the best day in Flint Valley."
Should I write something about Mina and Dr. Austin? I think everything is clear as it is. What I really liked was that they began to be revealed from a new side. Mina's story is very sad, it was interesting to find out what tempered her character so much. And I fell in love with this strong girl even more. Austin with his heart up his sleeve 💓 I hope they have a future, because I can imagine how this chemistry translates into a relationship
I feel insanely sorry for Mina, I can't imagine how she lives with this at all. But it was strange that she opened up to Austin so easily. Usually she doesn't talk about personal things, she's all so closed, and then bam - yes, yes, I'll tell you right now, make yourself comfortable.
@vk389952: I think she told him exactly, because she knew that he would never talk about it again. Because both Mike and Conrad and the others are all too compassionate, they would throw anxious looks at her and constantly ask how she was doing, and she doesn't need pity. She's wonderful, and God, what a beautiful actress.
Well, you can't do without not kicking China. As if if the device were manufactured in the USA, it would somehow guarantee the absence of further problems or side effects.
@vin: what to do if everyone knows who is to blame) as soon as the production of something is transferred to China, you can put an end to the quality. Because there, unfortunately, even a simple T-shirt according to European patterns under the name of a well-known brand cannot be neatly sewn ( Of course, there are productions where personnel are very carefully selected and trained, but to the chagrin of the consumer, the quantity and cheapness of labor rarely translates into the quality of the product. In addition, as in any other industry, the manufacturer is interested in increasing sales, and not in the fact that 1 device would serve properly for 20-50 years. Therefore, smartphones and telecoms become obsolete more often than they can break down, and if they fail later than the warranty period, it is often cheaper to buy a new one.. People need regular salaries, corporate heads need regular bonuses, boards of directors need percentages of profits..how to reduce the cost of production as much as possible and at the same time maintain the quality at the highest level)))? Do you know the answer to this question ? I recommend you to look at YouTube - Jacques Fresco, "On unemployment and hard work"
@doruma: It would sound more convincing if: a) iPhones would not be made in the same China. b) there would not be many cases when things produced in the USA or in Europe would not turn out to be defective. (Volkswagen, for example, and their falsification with diesel engines.)
It's just that now the United States and China are at loggerheads, and TV series makers are holding their noses to the wind and shoving bad Chinese, spies, hackers, and so on everywhere.
@vin: a great reason to do a little research within your household)
I am not ready to enter into a discussion with you on the issue, and there is probably no point, but a) my phones from Taiwan, the Philippines and the oldest from Hungary still work fine. The washing machine is European - there were nuances, but in principle the masters praise and complain that the brothers from the Middle Kingdom are not suitable for her.
Chinese: Philips camera, unfortunately, the most fragile of the small devices failed before all others. Dell's monitor is holding up perfectly. The computer from the Chinese components went to the service in the first 6 months of operation - replacement of HD and disk drive. Since then, external and internal hard drives have to be updated every 1.5-2 years, they die like flies. I remembered the centenarian in our farm made in prs :) hair dryer - gave my mother about 18 years ago) called to inquire about the fate of the old man and offer a new one, blowing regularly) mom is happy - a new one is not needed.
b) I did not claim that the production of small/large household appliances and/or cars outside of China did not have in the past and now has no disadvantages. At the same time, I typed: "There are certainly productions where the staff is very carefully selected and trained" apparently the best of the best are chosen for the iPhone assembly plants)
Therefore, I do not see any contradictions between the views on the problem. Returning to the plot of the series - the events from the subsequent episodes leave me right .. But this does not discredit iPhones, of course)
By the way, the replacement of the battery for the European Nokia was required at the 12th year of life ;) But the Chinese Philips smartphone unfortunately lasted only 4 years..although the optics in it are wonderful and the photos turned out wonderful.
Aren 't iPhones an image acquisition ? How often do owners change their models, and for what reasons?
@doruma: So I don't write that everything Chinese is super. It is clear that we need quality control and so on. It's just that they made such an accent here that, like, if from China, then everything, hang yourself patients. It overlaps too much with the current trade "war" with China.
@vin: I have no war with any country) I am peaceful and benevolent. But I am an active buyer and pay attention to the tags ..to my own chagrin, everything that is made in China except for the wonderful Monica Dell and the hair dryer is not so hot and is rather a temporary, budget solution to an urgent problem. And how good it would be) to buy goods cheaper, but not to throw them away as often as you buy) and use without fear that it is about to light up with a clear flame right in your hands..
Again, in order not to spoiler, in the perspective of the storyline of the series, this conclusion is justified. But this does not exclude a political order. After all, Americans also probably like to support their own manufacturer, and the current president is pushing the line of import substitution, and this is very good from the point of view of their local domestic business and the population, or am I confusing something?
I hope everything will be fine with the baby who was given the QuaVadis device. It was hard to look at the death of his brother, I hope that the writers are not so cruel.
how predictably it turned out with the head of Kuavadis, who at first was all a good guy, and now it turns out that he doesn't care about patients. which is strange, is his reputation really so cheap? at the same time, I would not be surprised if the products are actually of high quality, and the only thing is to reduce the cost of production. and why were the Chinese shown in the workshop? if they are produced in China, then the packers are why the Chinese)) funny blunder
