When Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China, Germany shipped a lot of medical equipment and hired Dr. Baolong, who was quite famous in Shanghai at that time, to help set up the wounded hospital in Shanghai. After the Germans returned to China, they gave all the medical equipment of the wounded hospital to Baolong to express their gratitude.
