Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 850 Using an Anti-Aircraft Gun to Kill a Mosquito: An Invitation to a Private Hospital Consultant (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)

Inside the banquet hall, under the crystal chandelier, the crowd was bustling. Fang Yan greeted the returning overseas Chinese businessmen in a friendly manner, and many of them couldn't wait to tell Fang Yan why they had come back.

These are all overseas Chinese businessmen who have been ill for quite some time.

Actually, Fang Yan knew before he came that if these people could get their illnesses treated abroad, why would they possibly come back to China?

Just from their brief introductions, I heard several different kinds of ailments in their dialect.

Now they all see dialects as their last lifeline, and they wish they could be on the spot right now so that dialects could quickly diagnose them.

But the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and the Ministry of Health both had specific tasks in mind.

Fang Yan came here today just to meet them, to let them meet Fang Yan first, and then we'll talk about other things later.

The previous process was that some people saw a doctor first, and others lined up. Today the policy has changed.

Director Liao first set the rules, addressing everyone as follows:

"Tomorrow, we will first arrange treatment for Mr. Situ's family and Mr. Huo's family. In the following days, we will arrange treatment for everyone in an orderly manner according to your specific situation. In short, please rest assured that we will definitely take care of everyone."

The reason is actually quite simple: the Situ family and the Huo family, like the Zhou family, had been donating things to China for a long time and were old friends with close ties.

As for others, if they want treatment, they must first express their sincerity.

What sincerity is has already been demonstrated by the previous group of people, so there's no need to teach them.

Dialects are now a trump card.

It's a trump card that can attract a lot of people. Although Director Liao has never said that dialect can cure all diseases, the fact that he claims to have a 100% cure rate was done by the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office.

It's practically telling everyone that when you come back and see Fang Yan, as long as he takes action, he can cure any illness that couldn't be cured abroad.

Now it's up to you to demonstrate your value and get an appointment with his clinic.

Everyone here is a seasoned veteran in the business world, and they immediately understood what was going on.

The Situ and Huo families stood happily to the side, their presence now quite impressive.

Everyone else looked at them with envy.

At this moment, Ding Pei suddenly realized that her promise to help with the acting for free seemed a bit far-fetched.

The cost of seeking treatment from Fang Yan far exceeded her expectations.

These people who were even more powerful than her could only obediently wait in line, even the Huo and Situ families. Yet, she met Fang Yan as soon as she got off the plane at noon, had a meal at his house, and immediately received treatment.

This is more important than the face of everyone present.

Fortunately, she didn't say it out loud, otherwise this matter would have been impossible to explain.

Thinking of this, Ding Pei's forehead broke out in a sweat.

I glanced at Fang Yan and saw that he was talking to a representative of the Huo family.

The other person adjusted their gold-rimmed glasses and whispered something in Fang Yan's ear.

Although she has a good status now, she is still inferior to the Huo family in Hong Kong.

That's a real elite family.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Fang Yan was having a brief discussion about the illness with the representative from the Huo family, and then received an invitation from them:
"Dr. Fang, we plan to hire you as an honorary consultant for our Hong Kong private hospital."

Fang Yan was taken aback:
"Me, a consultant? Mr. Huo, I can't go to Hong Kong right now."

The Huo family representative said:
“You don’t need to go to Hong Kong, you just need to be registered. We will send you money regularly every month, and when you need treatment, we will bring people to Beijing.”

“This…” Fang Yan glanced at Director Liao, who was talking to other people.

The Huo family representative said to Fang Yan:

"Oh, we've already discussed it with Director Liao."

"Please treat us like family. We've hired you as our private health consultant and will pay you a monthly fee."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yan responded:

"Then I'll check with my superiors. After all, I'm following orders now, so I can't just agree to anything."

We need to confirm the dialect with Director Liao.

After all, it's always better to be careful with these kinds of things.

The Huo family representative said:

"Yes, of course. We'll go and confirm with Director Liao together later."

He wasn't angry because of Fang Yan's caution; after all, they had already agreed, and he wasn't lying to Fang Yan.

Fang Yan nodded in agreement.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Director Liao announced to everyone that everyone had arrived and could take their seats.

Today, everyone's seat has a name; Fang Yan and Director Liao are sitting at the same table.

Besides the Huo family and the Situ family, Ding Pei was also at the same table.

The reason is quite simple: it was because of her maternal uncle, Zhang Xueliang.

That's how Director Liao introduced it.

It did not mention the Xiang family's daughter-in-law.

It seems that in the eyes of the people here, the young marshal is still more important. Also at the table was another woman, reportedly the widow of a Singaporean shipping tycoon, who had come back specifically to bring her daughter for heart treatment.

Fang Yan figured it out: the people sitting at this table were all people whose families or relatives had made contributions to the country. Ding Pei being able to go to Fang Yan's courtyard for treatment right after getting off the plane was also tacitly approved.

Next, one exquisite dish after another was served.

Director Liao announced the start of the banquet, welcoming the overseas Chinese who returned to China at noon today.

Having learned from his previous experience, Fang Yan started eating as soon as he heard Director Liao talking to the others at the table.

He had only taken a few bites when, sure enough, Director Liao called him.

Follow the leadership team to offer toasts.

First, toast the people at your table, then go to other tables to offer toasts.

In order not to affect the dialect, they specially served him yellow wine.

This stuff has a low alcohol content, and you drink it in tiny little cups, so it's like you haven't drunk anything at all.

Director Liao and his colleagues used baijiu (Chinese liquor).

He toasted each person individually, and by the end, Director Liao's face was slightly flushed, but his thoughts were still very clear.

You really need to be really capable to get this position.

During the trip, Fang Yan got to know everyone who had come this time all over again.

This time, everything will be introduced in a specific order.

Everything in such an important occasion is particular and nuanced; one only truly understands the nuances of dialects after experiencing them once.

After the toasts were finished, Fang Yan and the others returned to their seats.

At this moment, Fang Yan saw the dean pull Director Liao aside and whisper to him.

After saying only a few words, Director Liao looked at Fang Yan.

Fang Yan immediately understood that the dean was talking about Gu Mingyuan.

After the dean finished speaking in about a minute, Director Liao called his secretary over and gave her a few instructions before addressing everyone again.

Meanwhile, the dean nodded to Fang Yan, the meaning of which was clear: the matter had been settled.

A task that was considered quite troublesome in the dialect was accomplished so easily.

It didn't even cause a ripple.

Director Liao didn't seem inclined to confirm with Fang Yan either.

The saying "using an anti-aircraft gun to kill a mosquito" is absolutely true.

At this moment, the Huo family representative, seeing that Director Liao had finished his business, said to him:
"Director Liao, our family would like to invite Dr. Fang to be a consultant for our private hospital in Hong Kong..."

He hesitated for a moment before offering a reminder to Director Liao.

Upon hearing this, Director Liao smiled and nodded, getting straight to the point:
"Of course, that's no problem. We agreed on that beforehand."

Upon hearing this news, the Huo family representative smiled with satisfaction.

Then he glanced at Fang Yan, his eyes clearly saying:

'See? I already told you it was all agreed upon! You're being overly cautious!'

Fang Yan smiled. It wasn't that he was being overly cautious; it was a necessary process, and confirming with the leader was an essential step that couldn't be skipped.

If this step is involved, then it's officially certified; if it's not, then it's something they did privately.

The nature of these substances can be completely different.

Once this is settled, Fang Yan's task for the day is considered complete.

Now I'm focused on cooking; tomorrow I'll prepare to treat the Huo and Situ families.

Just then, someone suddenly asked:

"Director Liao, I would also like to hire Dr. Fang as a consultant for our Chinese Chamber of Commerce Hospital. Is that possible?"

Then another person said:
"Our British Chinese Health Sanatorium would also like to hire Dr. Fang as a consultant!"

"And us!"

This caused quite a stir at the scene. Several overseas Chinese businessmen from different places, as long as they had access to hospitals, immediately stood up and extended their invitations.

For a moment, Director Liao and the leaders from the Ministry of Health were also stunned.

I never imagined that these people owned so many private hospitals.

Just then, they heard Fang Yan suddenly ask:

Are all of these traditional Chinese medicine hospitals?

P.S.: I still owe you 59000 words after finishing this chapter.

That's all for today, please come early tomorrow.

Lao Feng is working hard to write tomorrow's code.
