After another night of cooling, the temperature outside the post-apocalyptic bunker has dropped to nearly -50 degrees Celsius.
Such extreme low temperatures were unheard of not only in the south where Zhongyang City is located, but also in the northernmost part of the entire Great Xia before the natural disaster. Such a low temperature environment is no longer suitable for human survival.
No one dared to go out freely anymore; everyone had to stay at home, covered with thick blankets, struggling to get through each day.
Chen Yu walked alone in the wind and snow, looking exceptionally lonely.
His first stop was Tianyu Hospital, where he planned to check on Zhao Ming, whom he had taken in the previous night. After all, he had put in a lot of effort, and if Zhao Ming died like this, wouldn't all his efforts have been in vain?
Upon entering the hospital, as Chen Yu passed a ward, he saw several medical staff resting on hospital beds, covered with several quilts, huddled together for warmth.
"Mr. Chen." A well-mannered young doctor greeted Chen Yu as soon as he arrived.
Chen Yu had some recollection of this doctor; his name seemed to be Wei Hongbo. Although he looked young, he was an absolute surgical genius who stayed on at the university to teach after graduation.
Before he was even thirty years old, he had already published several papers in well-known international medical journals and received recognition from many top experts in the global industry.
However, this talented doctor was suppressed at every turn in his former workplace because he had no connections, and was not even given the title of associate professor.
Don't ask why. The answer is that he is too young and inexperienced, and needs more experience.
On another occasion, he was half an hour late to class because he was treating a patient.
Unexpectedly, a "foreign friend" student filed a complaint against me.
What he found most unbelievable was that the school actually disciplined him for this incident.
The various injustices he suffered left him utterly disillusioned.
Finally, when he published his last paper, a senior professor, under the pretext of helping him polish it, wanted to be listed as an author on his paper, and even wanted to be listed before him!
This made him completely lose it, and he resigned on the spot.
Talented individuals like him are not lacking in patrons. After learning of his resignation, many well-known hospitals and universities abroad extended invitations to him.
However, having been born in a rural area of Daxia, he was still reluctant to leave the land that had nurtured him, and he wanted to wait a little longer.
After all, he thought that since so many organizations abroad had extended invitations to him, the domestic ones must be just as good. He figured that he could just find a job and at least not have to leave his hometown.
However, he ultimately underestimated the ruthlessness of the old professor who had wanted to be listed as a co-author on his paper.
He waited a full six months to find out that the old man had used his influence to blacklist him in the domestic medical industry!
This caused him to completely lose faith in this land and feel utterly disheartened.
Left with no other choice, he decided to accept an invitation from a well-known foreign university to develop his career abroad.
He had already booked his plane ticket when he unexpectedly saw a job posting from Tianyu Group.
Thinking of his elderly parents, and considering Chen Yu's own legendary achievements, he decided to give it one last try, so he submitted his resume to Tianyu Group.
After rounds of screening, he finally got hired by Tianyu Group, and at a sky-high annual salary of 12 million yuan, just as he had hoped.
This made him feel respected again, felt that he had value, and felt like a thoroughbred horse being appreciated by a discerning eye.
Furthermore, Tianyu Group also provided housing for these medical staff and stipulated that they must bring their families over after joining the company.
Such a requirement may seem very unreasonable to some people. After all, everyone has their own social circle, career and job. Isn't Tianyu Group forcing employees' families to give up everything by doing this?
But for Wei Hongbo, such a request was exactly what he wanted.
He used to worry about his elderly parents who were farming at home while he was working in another city. Now, his parents have been brought to live with him, so he no longer has to worry about them and can take care of them anytime, anywhere.
His wife was originally from a rural background, and they had been betrothed since childhood.
Unlike him, his wife was not well-educated and went out to work early after graduating from high school, using all the money she earned to support his education.
After he graduated and had a stable income, he naturally married her.
After the two got married, he originally thought that his wife would no longer suffer and could enjoy a happy life in the future, but the idea was beautiful, but the reality was cruel.
Over the years, he has been constantly suppressed at work and has hardly earned any income, let alone be able to buy a big house and bring his parents and wife to live with him.
And even if they squeeze in, he still has his father-in-law's family, doesn't he?
If a family of six were to have more children in the future, even if he worked hard for another 10 years, he still wouldn't be able to afford a big house that could accommodate so many people with his income at the time!
Fortunately, his wife was understanding and saw his predicament. She suggested that he work hard in a big city or even abroad first, while she would go back to her hometown to take care of her parents. Although he could be considered to have fulfilled his filial duty, he still felt that he had let his wife down.
The "unreasonable" request made by Tianyu Group was nothing short of a reward for him.
Zhongyang City is a small city, and his salary is so high now that one or two months' salary is enough to buy a large apartment outright.
