"Well……"

Dean Xia was stunned, seemingly not expecting him to ask that question.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "So how do you define it?"

"I only aim for first place!"

Lin Fan spoke calmly.

The sound wasn't loud, but it was like a thunderclap from a clear sky.

Dean Xia stared at the young man's face, his mouth agape for a long time.

A man who isn't wild won't last long!

A true strongman is one who is both powerful and arrogant!

"Haha, okay, let's aim for first place!"

Dean Xia patted him on the shoulder and laughed heartily.

The heavy burden in my heart can finally be lifted for a moment.

No matter what tomorrow brings, please allow me to be a little wild today!

The hotel was decorated in a very dignified manner, and the hostesses and waiters warmly welcomed everyone.

People who knew each other gathered together and chatted, creating a very lively atmosphere.

"Old Xia."

"Come on, let's chat for a bit."

"..."

When Xia Yuliang and Lin Xiao arrived, they ran into some acquaintances and were pulled away.

"Eat and drink whatever you like."

"Let's go chat with our old friends for a bit."

After giving instructions to a few people, Zheng Chaofeng also greeted them.

Although everyone is an opponent during the competition, these big shots also need to integrate into their own circles.

"Is a dinner party really this casual?"

Zhang Lanyu picked up a piece of cake and looked around.

"I thought someone was going to host and say something."

Liang Shaoqing pursed his lips.

"Yes, it will. This is just the initial unveiling."

"At six o'clock, someone will start organizing everyone."

Xu Qiuyue checked the time. "There are still more than twenty minutes left. Let's take this opportunity to eat something to tide us over."

Lin Fan held a glass of sparkling water, his gaze sweeping across the crowd.

The people in the photos in the materials also made their appearance, each of them acting like a star.

They were surrounded by a large group of people, clearly indicating that they were very popular.

"Brother Lin, these pastries are quite good, you should try them."

Liang Shaoqing handed over a plate of dessert.

The desserts, each a different color, are placed on top, making one's appetite whetted.

"Thanks."

Lin Fan took a piece and tasted it.

"I'll have one too."

Zhang Lanyu also took one.

As they were enjoying their meal, there was a commotion on the platform directly in front of them.

There were two spotlights focused on the center of the stage.

An elderly man dressed in a red and blue Tang suit walked onto the stage. His hair was gray, his face was ruddy, and he had a kind smile on his face.

"Look!"

Xu Qiuyue gently nudged Lin Fan. "This is Professor Wu Hanlin, the chairman of this National Medical Exchange Conference."

He is a leading figure in the domestic medical field, possessing profound expertise in the medical community.

Lin Fan followed her gaze.

Wu Hanlin was waving to the audience, showing no airs whatsoever.

Good evening, fellow medical professionals!

Wu Hanlin cleared his throat and picked up the microphone.

"Hello, Chairman Wu!"

"Hello, Professor Wu."

A chorus of responses erupted from the audience.

"Welcome everyone to Suzhou and Hangzhou to participate in this National Medical Exchange Conference."

"It is no exaggeration to say that this exchange meeting is the largest and most prestigious one we have ever held."

With a hint of pride on his kind face, Wu Hanlin said, "At this conference, we have gathered all the top medical teams from all provinces, municipalities and special administrative regions across the country."

"Adding you all together makes a total of thirty teams!"

Thirty teams?

"I remember the most teams I ever had were nineteen."

Some people in the audience started discussing it, and it was clear that this number far exceeded that of previous years.

"That's right, thirty teams!"

Wu Hanlin nodded affirmatively and said proudly, "Each team is selected from the elite of their respective regions. You represent the highest level of medical expertise in your area."

Our team includes not only top medical talents from home and abroad, but also experienced participants from previous years.

Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you will cherish this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The next few days will be an opportunity for you to exchange ideas and learn from each other.

The competition is just a process; mutual progress is the essence of this exchange conference.

"Chairman Wu is right!"

We must learn from each other!

"..."

These words resonated with everyone.

As soon as Wu Hanlin finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

Thank you for your support.

Wu Hanlin smiled and gestured for everyone to be quiet. "In addition, such a grand exchange conference cannot be separated from strong support behind the scenes."

I would like to introduce to you a distinguished guest, Mr. Zhou Zhiqiang, who is also the exclusive title sponsor of this exchange meeting!

All the operating expenses for our exchange meeting were generously funded by Mr. Zhou's group company.

After saying this, he gestured towards the steps.

Everyone's gaze shifted to the other side, where they saw a slightly overweight middle-aged man.

He was wearing an Armani suit and walked with a slight limp, so he was using a Dunhill cane.

After he went on stage, he walked to Wu Hanlin's side and nodded to the crowd below.

"I heard that the Zhou Group has recently made some big moves in the field of biomedicine."

"A company that can sponsor such a large-scale medical exchange conference must be very powerful."

"..."

The people in the audience began to whisper among themselves.

"Everyone, please be quiet."
