Facing the media, Tang Xiaobao spoke freely.
His English is fluent and authentic.
This made many reporters admire it.
After half an hour, the reporters still did not leave.
From this competition, to the Nobel Prize in Medicine, to new products, the topic gradually extended to his personal love life.
Other things can be discussed, but personal feelings are Tang Xiaobao's forbidden area.
So, when faced with similar questions, he refused to answer without hesitation.
A man and a woman suddenly appeared in the crowd.
The man is McGrady, the president of the World Association of Western Medicine. He is probably in his sixties, with gray hair and a rosy complexion. He looks quite healthy. His personal assistant Karen is very beautiful, with blue eyes, white skin, long golden hair and a hot body.
As soon as McGrady arrived, the reporters actually recognized him, and many of them immediately changed their interview subjects to him.
"Dear journalists, thank you for recognizing me. It's an honor for me. But I'm sorry, I can't answer your questions today because I'm here to greet Mr. Tang Xiaobao. He's our rival, that's true, but he's also a member of our medical community, a colleague and friend. Please make way, okay?"
Kailin smiled and patiently explained to everyone.
Finally, the reporters made way.
Maddie and Kailin came to Tang Xiaobao.
"Welcome, Mr. Tang."
Maddie held out her hand, a hint of contempt in her eyes.
Tang Xiaobao also extended his hand and said with a faint smile: "Hello."
"I'm Maddie, the president of the World Association of Western Medicine, and one of the experts you'll be challenging this time. This is my assistant, Ms. Kailin. We're here to take you to the hotel to rest."
"Thanks."
"Mr. Tang, please follow me."
Karen politely led the way and soon got into an extended Bentley on the side of the road.
The driver in front was driving, and McGrady was chatting with Tang Xiaobao in the back.
Soon, we arrived at the hotel.
After entering the room, McGrady smiled and said, "Mr. Tang has come from afar, so he's naturally a guest. Don't worry, our Western Medicine Association knows how to treat guests. We've opened the hotel for a week, and you can use the restaurant downstairs for free. All expenses will be covered by our Western Medicine Association. In three days, the competition will be held at the nearby St. Mary's Hospital. Hundreds of reporters from dozens of countries around the world will be reporting on the event. I hope Mr. Tang eats well, drinks well, and rests well these few days so that he can perform at his best during the competition. Our Western Medicine Association also hopes to have an exchange and learning experience between Chinese and Western medicine. Don't let us down."
"Okay, I won't let you down then."
Tang Xiaobao laughed.
Maddie added, "I won't bother you these days. Kailin will be in charge of contacting you. If you have any needs, you can contact us through her."
"No need. I will rush to St. Mary's Hospital in three days. I have also prepared 10 billion US dollars this time. You should be clear about the bet at that time. If I win, you can admit in front of the media that Western medicine is inferior to Chinese medicine." Tang Xiaobao reminded.
McGrady's eyes lit up and he laughed heartily, "Mr. Tang, your courage is commendable. In that case, I must first thank you, Mr. Tang. With this money, we can launch many more scientific research projects. We really need this funding."
Money makes you blind...
Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "Then you have to work hard. The money is here. Whether you can earn it depends on your ability."
"Please rest assured, Mr. Tang, we are sure to win this money."
"Haha, see you on the field then."
As the two of them talked, tension began to build.
Maddie and Kailin left the hotel.
After getting in the car, Kailin said excitedly: "Oh, God, is he really crazy? That's 10 billion US dollars. Does he have so much money?"
McGrady was also very excited. "Ten billion US dollars, he can definitely come up with it. I've had someone investigate him. He not only owns the Shenlong Group, but he also has a number of other businesses, including some jade mines in Myanmar, in which he also has shares. Ten billion US dollars is just a fortune. Haha, as the Chinese say, this is a real blessing. With this ten billion, our association will be more than ten times stronger."
"I'm afraid he won't fulfill his promise and he's just hyping it up," Karen reminded.
McGrady waved his hand. "I used to think so, but today at the airport, I saw that he's truly confident in himself. Of course, this kind of confidence is useless. Games still have to be won by strength. So, tell the media right away and disclose the $10 billion. He won't be able to refuse when the time comes!"
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
…
The hotel's standards are not low.
The Western Medicine Association is still very generous.
Tang Xiaobao took a nice bath.
In the afternoon, Tang Xiaobao and Wanru went to a restaurant to eat together.
The restaurant had indeed been informed in advance, and an oriental chef who was proficient in all major Chinese cuisines was specially invited from outside.
When you are in a foreign country and can eat the food from your hometown, the taste will naturally make you feel extraordinary.
After dinner, it was getting dark, so Tang Xiaobao and Wanru went back to their room to sleep.
Tang Xiaobao got up early the next morning.
He's kind of used to his bed.
The time difference hasn't been reversed.
After breakfast, the two returned to the room and were about to go out for a walk when they heard someone knocking on the door.
When Tang Xiaobao opened it, he was shocked.
It turned out to be an old acquaintance.
Liu Jun, Vice Minister of Health, and his secretary Liu Yan.
Tang Xiaobao had no ill feelings towards Minister Liu Jun, but as for Liu Yan... he really didn't like him very much.
Fortunately, Liu Yan was much more low-key today than last time, with a humble and flattering look on his face.
Tang Xiaobao welcomed the two of them in and said with a smile, "Minister Liu, why are you here?"
Liu Jun smiled and said, "I'm here for your competition. You represent Chinese Traditional Medicine. How could I let you fight alone? Let me tell you, I'm personally leading the team here under orders from the highest level. My sole purpose is to assist you in the competition. The commander also said he'll be waiting for your triumphant return."
Tang Xiaobao was a little surprised: "Chief?"
"Yes, the biggest chief."
Liu Jun blinked. "He asked someone to call our minister, and then we had a meeting and decided that I would lead a team to meet you. Oh, and there's another friend who should be coming to visit you soon."
Before Tang Xiaobao could say anything, someone knocked on the door again.
Just like opening the door in the past.
Soon, a middle-aged man in his forties was brought back.
Chinese.
He has a square face, a resolute and tough look, and you can tell at first glance that he used to be a soldier.
"Hello, Minister Liu, and Mr. Tang."
He shook hands with both of them and said hello, then sat down.
