Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 672 Everyone is here for you! A plane from a thousand miles away delivers New Year's goods (Monthly ticket plus more)

What was supposed to come finally came. Fangyan had thought they had forgotten about it.

He had thought before that he might go to the gala held by the Ministry of Health or the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office.

Now it's clear where to go.

The Ministry of Health’s gala is mainly for internal use, while the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office’s gala is mainly for external use.

These days, each unit will hold a New Year's Eve gala if conditions permit, based on the nature of the unit. The Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council will invite all overseas Chinese in Beijing or surrounding areas to go to a designated place to hold a gala with Chinese characteristics.

It is equivalent to bringing all overseas Chinese together to celebrate the New Year.

Of course, Mr. and Mrs. Hu were once again specially arranged to stay away from this occasion and show up in another place.

The reason why Fang Yan was invited to go there was because many overseas Chinese still came back for him, but Qiao Shang and his friends were basically being dragged out to eat and drink these days after they came back.

Dialects are not even ranked here.

The main reason is that Director Liao did not make any arrangements. He originally planned to leave these overseas Chinese businessmen alone for the time being, which was a little bit of hunger marketing.

So far, only Chairman Li Hongyuan, who came back with them, has received treatment, while the others have all been pushed back to the present day.

It has been five or six days since I came back, and some overseas Chinese businessmen have become impatient.

So at tonight's event, Fangyan also has a very important task, which is to diagnose a group of overseas Chinese businessmen.

It was like the last day before the Lunar New Year, and all their problems were solved.

When Fangyan heard Director Liao’s arrangements, he also admired how good politicians really were at playing.

It is estimated that Director Liao has negotiated quite a few foreign investment projects in the past few days.

Perhaps the patients seeing the doctor tonight have already had these agreements settled.

Of course, for the benefit of the motherland, Fangyan will definitely cooperate with the work without hesitation.

But I'm going to the party tonight, so I won't have time to eat New Year's Eve dinner at home.

Fang Yan asked Director Liao:

"Director Liao, what time does the party start?"

Director Liao said:
“The show goes on till the early hours of the morning.”

He thought it was Fangyan who was afraid that it would be difficult to leave if it was too late, so he said:
"After the show, our people will send a car to take you home."

The dean on the side said:

"It's not far, actually. It's at the Capital Hotel at 33 East Chang'an Street. It only takes ten minutes for us to walk there. When the show is over, you and I can walk back together."

Standing here on the upper floor, you can see the Beijing Hotel building. Fang Yan nodded:
"Capital Hotel, that's really close..."

Fang Yan paused, but couldn't help asking:
"But what I mean is, can we leave earlier then?"

After hearing this, Director Liao and the dean suddenly realized that the young man just wanted to get the job done and then get away.

Director Liao thought for a moment and said:
"Okay, no problem. When the time comes, you can finish the diagnosis and then accompany me for a round of toasts. I won't stop you if you want to leave then."

"Okay!" Fangyan agreed immediately.

He was in no mood to watch the evening party. After all, the most enjoyable New Year celebration was to be with his family.

Moreover, Hu Daohu and his wife only went to Fangyan's house for the formality, so it would be no big deal if Fangyan, the head of the family, did not go back.

After the discussion, the dean and Director Liao went to visit President Li. President Li could not be discharged from the hospital today and had to stay here, so of course the leader had to come and express his condolences.

Moreover, President Li has revealed that he will donate some internationally advanced medical equipment to PUMC, and the amount will definitely not be lower than that of Hu Daohu and his wife. Such a big sponsor must be visited.

However, both of them found that President Li was still very happy today. As soon as they met, he began to thank Director Liao and the dean for their arrangements. He said that it was really touching that so many people were arranged to accompany him in the hospital for the New Year.

Director Liao and the dean were also a little confused. Isn’t this a basic operation?

Is it true that during Christmas in foreign countries, no one is left in the hospital?
Are they so inhumane?
Fixed body question!
But no matter what, President Li is now quite satisfied with their work attitude, and he just threw money at the staff, which indirectly shows that he is more than just satisfied.

Then Director Liao and the dean can be relieved.

Before leaving, he also said that the authorities had arranged for a chef from the Beijing Hotel to prepare this year's New Year's Eve dinner for Chairman Li's family.

President Li then strongly requested to have the New Year's Eve dinner with the medical staff on duty at night.

Director Liao and the dean asked Fangyan, who was standing beside them, if it was okay.

Fang Yan then said that President Li did not have any infectious diseases and could have the New Year's Eve dinner with everyone. However, President Li was in the recovery stage now and his stomach condition allowed him to eat light food, forget about eating meat or fish. Therefore, those who accompanied him for dinner tonight could only eat light food.

After hearing this, Director Liao and the dean discussed it and agreed.

The chef who came to cook the New Year's Eve dinner tonight is also a state banquet chef. Although the dishes are light, with their skills, they can make a table full of delicious food.

After finishing the work here, Director Liao and the dean left.

The other people in the hospital were also very happy when they received the red envelopes from President Li.

Even the lifeless Meng Jimin became a little more active at this moment.

Just when Fangyan thought everything was fine, at 11:30 am, the phone at the nurses' station rang again. It was Director Liao from the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office who called and said that Lao Zhou had brought some New Year's goods from Hong Kong and had them shipped over by plane.

It was specially delivered to Fangyan's home. It took only 40 minutes to deliver it from the airport to Fangyan's doorstep.

Fangyan looked at the time and saw that they would arrive around twelve o'clock.

After thanking Director Liao on the phone, Fang Yan thought that he had to write a telegram back to Lao Zhou or Zhou Zhaoqin. Although Zhou Zhaoqin sent telegrams every week during this period, Fang Yan never responded.

This time the New Year’s goods have arrived at my doorstep, so of course I have to go and buy some.

By the way, I would also like to send a New Year greeting message to Mr. Tang and Le Miao in Hong Kong.

I have free time in the afternoon, so I can go to the post office to send it.

At twelve o'clock, Fangyan got off work.

Considering that my younger brother will not be eating dinner at home today, the lunch is also quite sumptuous. Today, my second sister Fang Ning made stewed meat, fish, dumplings, stir-fried cabbage, cold dishes and so on.

Before I could taste the food, the truck that Director Liao arranged to bring the goods from the airport arrived.

He stopped at the door and honked the horn, calling out in dialect to come out and take the delivery.

When my younger brother Fangyan and his elder brother-in-law went out to pick up the goods, they found that it was a very large box.

It was marked: "Fragile items inside, handle with care."

After seeing this sign, the younger brother asked in dialect:

"Fragile items? Could it be the porcelain you sent back?"

PS: I got 100 more monthly tickets, so after updating this chapter, I still owe you 94000 words.

There's more in the afternoon.
