Amidst the family's deep gratitude, the white old man was sent to the ICU of Margaret Hospital as quickly as possible.
One of the middle-aged white men, about 40 years old, came over, hugged Chen Xia tightly, and said with great gratitude:
"Thank you very much for saving my father's life. Let me introduce myself. My name is Robson Walton and I'm from the United States. I wonder if I would have the honor of leaving your contact information?"
Chen Xia smiled and said:
"No need to leave your contact information. I'm Chen Xia, a director of this hospital. Nice to meet you. But I think you should hurry up and go to the hospital with me."
When Robson Walton heard that the young doctor in front of him was actually a director of a large hospital, he was also surprised, and he couldn't help but look at Chen Xia with a higher opinion.
"OK, Chen, I'll contact you later."
Watching this group of white people leave in a hurry, Chen Xia was also surprised when he saw that the dock was already surrounded by people and convoys who came to pick them up. It seemed that this family was either rich or noble.
But he immediately put it out of his mind. He saved people out of his doctor's instinct, but he didn't think about how others would express their gratitude.
It has to be said that Chen Xia really didn't know enough about the economic figures and economic events of later generations. He just knew that jade would increase in price and that buying a house would not be a loss.
But he didn't recognize Qi Luoxiang's fragrance.
The next day, Chen Xia put on a white coat and followed Dr. Xiang Jiang on ward rounds to learn some of their diagnosis and treatment procedures when he was urgently summoned to the chairman's office by his aunt.
As soon as he entered the office, he saw that it was full of people. Chen Xia recognized at a glance that they were the family who were rescued yesterday.
When everyone saw Chen Xia come in, they all stood up immediately.
Chen Shuqin smiled and said, "Look, our hero is here."
Robson Walton, who had hugged Chen Xia yesterday, came up and gave her another hug, acting like a familiar figure.
"Thank you, Chen. My father is out of danger."
"Mr. Robson, I'm glad your father is okay. I can rest assured then."
Robson quickly introduced them with a smile, "This is my mother, my two brothers Jim and John, and my sister Alice. Oh, and this gentleman is Mr. Will, the American Consul in Hong Kong."
Chen Xia was a little surprised. This family was incredible. Even the American consul came. But he didn't think there was a US president named Walton.
While greeting the white people in front of her, the old lady hugged Chen Xia and kissed her on both sides of the face, spouting words of gratitude as if they were free.
Seeing her nephew's confused look, Chen Shuqin reminded him in Yuezhou dialect in a bad mood:
"Idiot, I always tell you to read the financial newspapers, but you never listen. The man you saved from sudden death yesterday was named Sam Walton. He's the richest man in America and the chairman of Walmart."
Hi wow, Chen Xia may not know the other things you mentioned, but Walmart is a supermarket chain that everyone on earth knows.
Walmart not only owns supermarkets, but also a famous Sam's Club. It is said to be the largest private enterprise in the world, with more than 2 million employees.
Chen Xia felt very proud that he had saved the richest man, and he could brag about it for the rest of his life.
Of course, it’s not necessarily true that Chen Xia wants to curry favor with them. They run a supermarket, and Chen Xia runs a pharmaceutical factory. It seems that there is no room for the two families to exploit each other.
Thinking of this, Chen Xia felt more relaxed. Having more friends is always a good thing.
"Oh, so you're the Walton family. You have the best supermarket in the world. It's a pity that my country is still relatively poor. But I believe that it won't be long before your supermarket will be able to enter China."
Robson Walton was very surprised. "Chen, you are not from Hong Kong, but you don't look Chinese at all."
Chen Xia smiled bitterly.
There is no way around this, just like in later generations, images are solidified.
The two sides sat down and did business with each other.
It turned out that Mr. Sam was invited by Hong Kong to attend an economic forum and bring his whole family on a vacation to Asia.
Old Sam already had underlying diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and coronary heart disease. This time, he suffered cardiac arrest due to excitement at sea.
In fact, if it weren't for Chen Xia's help, the old man would not have lived for many years. Historically, old man Sam died in 1992. After his death, he was relatively fair and divided his property equally among his four children.
The daughter also got a share, no less than her three brothers. In April 2021, Alice Walton ranked 17th on the "2021 Forbes Global Rich List" with a fortune of US$61.8 billion.
This shows that the old man has no idea of favoring boys over girls. Unlike some parents in China, who insist on leaving their property to their sons and cannot allow their daughters to take a penny, but must pay for their parents' support and medical expenses in the future.
If you meet parents like Fan Shengmei again, who force their daughter to be a "brother-supporting demon", it will almost ruin her life.
Ahem, I’ve gone off topic. Anyway, there is no doubt that Chen Xia is my savior now.
At this time, Robson Walton took a small gift box from the secretary and handed it to his mother.
Old Mrs. Sam grabbed Chen Xia's hand and said:
"Chen, good boy, we don't know how to express our gratitude for your help. Here is a check, please be sure to accept it."
After saying that, he opened the box. Inside was a check from Citibank. Chen Xia squinted his eyes and counted the zeros on it. It was a full 9 digits, 100 million US dollars.
For the Walton family, $100 million is nothing. They are not short of money at all. In 1985, Sam Walton became the richest man with $50 billion.
If it was in the previous life, oh no, it doesn’t have to be the previous life, just a few years earlier, Chen Xia would have been ecstatic when he saw the check for $100 million and would have become a billionaire overnight.
But now, Chen Xia, to be pretentious, really doesn't care much about this 100 million US dollars worth of "small tickets".
Not to mention the cash in overseas accounts, there are also many "small goals" of cash piled up in his space hospital.
