“I didn’t say that, Mr. Lin, please don’t misunderstand.”
Liu Baohua sneered, denying the allegations, but the disgusting hostility in his eyes was impossible to ignore.
"The cooperation between Ankang Pharmaceutical and Zhonghua Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic is just a small warning to Mr. Lin, not a threat. It is just hoped that Mr. Lin can understand what it means to be a wise man when he is in a good position."
"Currently, the Chinese Medicine Clinic has occupied one-third of the market, and its market share will continue to grow over time."
"At that time, Zhongxing Clinic will return to its previous miserable state, where not a single patient would come for several days. I don't think Mr. Lin would want to see that happen, would he?"
Nearby, Su Xiaoxiao, Ge Qingshan, Tian Zaizhong, and the others heard Lin Yang and Liu Baohua's conversation, and their expressions changed slightly.
No wonder the Chinese Medicine Clinic has been so popular lately; it turns out it has a new financial backer.
Although they didn't know why there was such a strong tension between Lin Yang and Liu Baohua, Su Xiaoxiao and the others didn't give Liu Baohua a friendly look because they trusted Lin Yang.
"I'm not available and I'm not interested. Please leave."
Lin Yang is someone who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. If Liu Baohua were to lower his stance and sincerely say a few kind words, he might reconsider. Not to mention that Liu Baohua is inherently dishonest.
Moreover, he also knew why the Chinese Medicine Clinic had become so famous.
While hormone medications can indeed speed up the onset of drug effects, they also pose significant risks to the human body.
Even if no one notices anything amiss now, the truth will eventually come out, and then we'll see how they explain it.
Besides, Lin Yang has been busy training doctors under Zhongxing Medical Center these past two days, and he really can't handle it all.
"You... Hmph, Lin Yang, you'll definitely regret this!"
After being turned away again, Liu Baohua lost face and left the clinic cursing once more.
Su Xiaoxiao and the others went to greet him and learned the whole story from Lin Yang.
"Could this guy surnamed Liu be affiliated with a foreign power?"
Su Xiaoxiao was the first to react, and her words sent a chill down everyone's spine.
Lin Yang nodded.
That's what he thought too, and that's why he rejected Liu Baohua's invitation to collaborate.
If his guess is correct, then the Chinese Medicine Clinic has become a traitor to our ancestors.
"No matter what others do, we must stick to our own bottom line."
Lin Yang felt a pang of heartache, but there was nothing he could do. After all, a person's hands, feet, and mouth are their own body. Even if Lin Yang didn't want to see this happen, he couldn't control what Director Guo was doing.
He can only manage himself and Zhongxing Medical Clinic.
The others nodded in agreement with somber expressions.
As the number of patients decreased, Lin Yang's workload also decreased, and he gradually shifted his focus from treating patients to training doctors, hoping to cultivate more outstanding successors in traditional Chinese medicine.
However, unforeseen events can happen at any time.
Within just a few days, three or four doctors successively submitted their resignations to Lin Yang.
But when Lin Yang asked them why, they all stammered and couldn't give a clear answer.
It might be a coincidence that only one person is like this.
But since several people were in the same state, Lin Yang knew exactly what was going on.
He didn't spell it out, but before these doctors signed their resignation forms, he earnestly told them one last time that as doctors and as Chinese people, they should have their own beliefs, not compromise their principles for a living, and never listen to the slander of others.
With fewer doctors and fewer patients, Zhongxing Medical Clinic suddenly became deserted.
Suddenly, Lin Yang's career was beset by crises.
Su Xiaoxiao and the others were worried that Lin Yang was under too much pressure, so they tried all sorts of ways to reassure him. However, Lin Yang didn't seem to be greatly affected and never regretted refusing to cooperate with Liu Baohua.
Life went on uneventfully like that.
That day, Lin Yang was watching TV idly in the clinic when he couldn't help but sigh.
The television screen in the lobby of the clinic was originally intended for patients waiting for their appointments. However, after only a short time, the clinic became incredibly deserted, with even passersby on the street not giving it a second glance.
Thinking back to the grand scene of a few days ago, and then looking at the scene before us, it's impossible not to feel disappointed.
If he were surpassed by a truly skilled and renowned traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, that would be one thing; Lin Yang would accept defeat wholeheartedly.
But the one who overwhelmingly surpasses them is someone like Liu Baohua!
"Hey, isn't this the famous Dr. Lin Yang? How come you don't have a single patient?"
Just as Lin Yang was deep in thought, a familiar figure swaggered in through the clinic, his mocking voice extremely grating.
Lin Yang knew who it was without even looking up.
Who else could it be but Liu Baohua?
What are you doing here again?
To be honest, Lin Yang really didn't understand the point of Liu Baohua's repeated pestering of him.
He has made it clear that he will not sell him any Chinese medicine prescriptions that he knows.
If you really want to ask for it, shouldn't you adjust your attitude and raise your requirements?
They come here every few days to cause trouble; I don't know what's wrong with their brains.
Faced with Lin Yang's indifference, Liu Baohua became even more smug.
In his eyes, Lin Yang was nothing more than a stubborn mule.
"It's nothing, I just came to inform you about the development progress of the Chinese Medicine Clinic, so you can know how foolish it was to reject my cooperation invitation back then."
"Because of its excellent medical skills and reputation, the national leadership has already taken notice of the China Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic. Soon, the five characters of the China Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic will represent the essence of traditional Chinese medicine in all of China and will appear in major newspapers and media, and even attend high-end international events."
"To put it bluntly, the Chinese Medicine Clinic is only lacking an opportunity to make a name for itself; everything else is ready."
"And look at your dilapidated clinic, tsk tsk."
Liu Baohua's arrogant and domineering manner makes him look like he deserves a beating.
He tried to use reverse psychology to make Lin Yang change his mind, but unfortunately, it backfired.
These little tricks are no match for Lin Yang.
An oppressive and eerie atmosphere permeated the air.
"We now have an urgent news briefing—"
The television screen flickered twice, and the host's resounding announcement broke the standoff between the two sides.
"According to reports from frontline reporters, a large-scale infectious disease outbreak has occurred in a small Southeast Asian country. Symptoms include fever and vomiting, with severe cases resulting in unconsciousness. As of now, more than 8,000 people have died."
"Due to limited local medical technology, no effective treatment has been found for this infectious disease, and therefore it has not been effectively controlled."
"The country's head of state appealed to international organizations for help, hoping that countries would send medical teams to assist in containing the spread of the disease and reducing the number of casualties..."
