Chapter 584: Not Helping Someone in Danger
After eight o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming received another visit from a guest at his residence in Zijinyuan Community.
Kong Xiaoyan from the Beijing Women's Club, and her brother, Kong Xiaoguang, an associate chief physician who is a doctor.
The two of them gave quite a lot of New Year gifts, including boxes and gift boxes. It took two trips to move them, and there were more than a dozen of them.
After some polite exchanges, Yu Zhiming accompanied the brother and sister from Beijing to drink tea in the living room.
Yu Zhiming picked up the teacup, found it was too hot, and put it back on the coffee table.
"The money that was defrauded?"
Kong Xiaoyan took over the conversation with a smile on her face and said, "The scammer who pretended to be Dr. Yu was caught and the money was compensated."
"Thank you very much for this."
"If you hadn't discovered that scammer, we might not have been able to recover our nearly two million yuan loss."
Yu Zhiming smiled gently.
Although the Hua family actively compensated Shi Hao, who impersonated Yu Zhiming, for all the defrauded money, they also hired a barrister to defend him.
However, because the amount of money defrauded was huge and he was identified as one of the main culprits of the scam, Shi Hao was sentenced to ten months in prison for fraud by the court last month.
Kong Xiaoguang said softly, "During this period, I have heard my colleagues in Beijing mention your name, Doctor Yu, several times."
"We successfully collaborated to perform a difficult skull base tumor radioactive source implantation surgery. We also diagnosed heart disease based solely on the sound of a heartbeat."
"And, and..."
Kong Xiaoguang said with a smile, "You easily discovered the cause of a Chinese man's fever, which several famous doctors in Beijing couldn't diagnose."
Yu Zhiming laughed and said, "Doctor Kong, this definitely wasn't mentioned by a colleague. It must be you who specifically inquired about it."
Kong Xiaoguang said solemnly: "Doctor Yu, I am not lying. I really heard it from my colleagues."
Kong Xiaoyan also echoed, "Doctor Yu, your deeds are not only spread in the medical circles in Beijing, but every day, friends, both familiar and unfamiliar, ask me when they can arrange another physical examination with you."
Yu Zhiming smiled faintly and did not continue the topic.
Kong Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment, then spoke up, "Doctor Yu, after your last physical examination, all the members went back and were not dissatisfied. They all said you were a miracle doctor."
"Everyone is looking forward to it and hopes to organize another physical examination this year."
After a pause, she added, "Doctor Yu, we can still negotiate the medical examination fee."
Yu Zhiming said frankly: "Ms. Kong, this is not a matter of money. You can imagine that I am not short of money anymore."
"Besides, my work will become increasingly busy."
"It's hard for me to spare so much time to do physical examinations for so many people."
Kong Xiaoyan knew that Yu Zhiming was telling the truth.
She has been closely following Yu Zhiming's recent situation.
Yu Zhiming's cooperation with the Central Health Bureau, the expansion and relocation of his center, the purchase of a luxury house, and his average working hours of more than ten hours a day, etc.
Kong Xiaoyan knows all of this.
To be honest, she also felt that Yu Zhiming was indeed working hard.
However, for her own benefit, Kong Xiaoyan still tried to persuade him: "Doctor Yu, if we can think of a more appropriate way to cooperate, and you happen to have some free time, can we still work together again?"
Yu Zhiming replied vaguely, "As long as I have enough free time, everything is fine."
After chatting for a few more words, the Kong brothers and sisters politely said goodbye and left.
After seeing off the guests, Yu Zhiming, Qingning and Fourth Sister started the unboxing game with great interest.
There were eight New Year gifts from the Kong brothers and sisters.
A box of white wine called Juhuabai.
Yu Zhiming took a look at the instructions and ingredients and found that it was not only the royal wine from before, but also a medicinal wine with many benefits.
You can take it home and give it to your dad.
A box of high-end-looking Erguotou.
A box contains ten pieces of good quality twenty-year-old forest ginseng.
A box of deer antlers.
A cloisonné pen holder.
A calligraphy work by a famous calligrapher who is known as "miracle doctor".
Two boxes of palace cakes.
Two vacuum-packed roast ducks.
After looking at the gifts one by one, Yu Xiangwan sighed and said, "The gifts they prepared are quite thoughtful."
Yu Zhiming glanced at his fourth sister and said, "If I'm busy after the New Year and don't have much time, there's nothing I can do about it, no matter how much effort they put into preparing their gifts."
At this time, Yu Zhiming's cell phone rang.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from Qin Qiushi from the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Beijing Union Hospital.
After the call was connected, Dr. Qin told him that he had discussed cooperation with Mr. Ye Huazhang. Mr. Ye also wanted to send a student to accompany him to collect patient information.
Yu Zhiming said frankly that he had no objection as long as it did not affect his work.
At the end of the call, Dr. Qin said that a patient his father had taken over was likely to have health problems, and asked if he could check to confirm.
Yu Zhiming also agreed happily.
After ending the call with Dr. Qin, Yu Zhiming said happily, "Now that we have a close working relationship with these two great masters of traditional Chinese medicine, it should be easy to ask them to take my pulse and prescribe medicine in the future, right?"
Qing Ning chuckled and said, "Of course it's easy. It's a matter of reciprocity. If you help them, they will help you in return."
Yu Zhiming said happily: "After the New Year, my parents and eldest sister will come to Binhai. I will find an opportunity to ask them to take the pulse of my parents, eldest sister, and eldest brother-in-law and prescribe a prescription for nourishing the body."
"In terms of nourishing the body and replenishing Qi, Chinese medicine is broad and profound, far ahead of Western medicine."
At this time, it was already past 8:30 in the evening.
Yu Zhiming felt sleepy and said, "Sister, Qingning, you guys take care of these gifts. I'm going to wash up and get ready for bed."
He sighed again and said, "I obviously feel that as I get older, my body is not as good as it used to be."
"Before, as long as I could sleep three or four hours a night, I would have enough energy for the whole day."
"Now, I need to have a good rest the next night before I can recover."
Gu Qingning felt a little distressed when she heard this.
"Tomorrow, all random activities and personal work will be rejected unless absolutely necessary."
"Making sure you get enough rest is our top priority."
Yu Zhiming reached out and pinched the tip of Qing Ning's nose, then smiled and said, "If you can control yourself and come to see me less than once or twice a week, it will also give me more energy."
Qing Ning snorted, "Don't fool me."
She said confidently, "I've consulted an expert in this area. In your case, three or four times a week isn't too much."
"What's more important is that it's good for your body and mind."
Yu Zhiming raised his hand and flicked the guy on the forehead, saying, "You're getting more and more shameless. You don't have any sense of shame at all."
Qing Ning snorted softly, "This is the principle of human relations. Why are you shy? If you are shy, you won't be able to eat meat."
Yu Zhiming finally realized that if a girl acts like a hooligan, a man will have no choice but to retreat.
He quickly went to wash up...
After nine o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming, who was lying on the bed in the bedroom and trying to fall asleep, received another call from Zhou Mo.
"What's the matter?"
"Hey, Doctor Yu, I just saw a short video accusing you of not helping someone in need."
"Watching someone in need without helping? What does that mean?" Yu Zhiming couldn't help but feel confused.
Zhou Mo replied on the call, "A middle-aged man said in the video that last Saturday morning, he was walking on the street when he suddenly felt very unwell and fell to the sidewalk due to dizziness."
"After a while, he came to."
"A kind passerby told him he was unlucky today and said you were driving by and you must not have seen him."
"If you had seen him collapse, you would have stopped the car and checked him out."
"The middle-aged man said that the passerby's words suddenly gave him an idea. He wanted to verify whether you are truly a compassionate doctor who will save people in need, or whether your noble medical ethics are just hype!"
"So, three times in a row, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, he collapsed as you drove by."
"But you didn't stop once to help."
"The man even had someone record a video of him falling down and you driving by without stopping."
After a pause, Zhou Mo continued, "There are quite a lot of comments on this video right now, and many people are criticizing the man for using this kind of probing method to verify a doctor's professional ethics."
"But some people also criticized you for not helping others."
"Doctor Yu, do you want to respond?"
Yu Zhiming snorted coldly and said, "No need to respond. The more you respond, the more excited and motivated the keyboard warriors will become."
"If this video can help me reduce the number of patients seeking medical treatment, I will thank him."
Yu Zhiming sneered again, "That man is also a weirdo. He was not feeling well and fainted in the street, but instead of going to the doctor to recuperate, he still had the interest to test me!"
Zhou Mo chuckled and said, "Doctor Yu, I guess he just wants you to stop the car and give him a physical examination for free."
"But he kept falling over and over again, and he didn't even notice you stopping the car. This made him angry and embarrassed, so he went to the internet celebrities to complain about you."
Yu Zhiming thought about it and chuckled, "What you said is a possibility."
He pondered again and said, "This is indeed a problem."
"In the future, if a patient follows my example and comes directly to me and falls to the ground, should I save him or not?"
Zhou Mo chuckled and replied, "Of course I'll save him, but after that, I'll give him a hefty bill to pay."
"For emergency rescue, the cost will naturally be doubled."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "High fees are indeed an effective way to prevent this kind of rogue medical treatment behavior."
"Talk about high medical bills."
Zhou Mo continued on the call: "I also saw a video raising funds for medical treatment."
"A six-year-old boy has a genetic mutation that causes hereditary retinal disease. They say an American pharmaceutical company has a cure for it."
"They say one shot will be effective and can restore the child's sight."
“It’s just that this medicine is very expensive.”
"One small vial costs over $400,000. Two vials are needed for each eye, so that's $900,000."
"Doctor Yu, is there really such an expensive medicine?"
Yu Zhiming replied: "Drugs for rare diseases are very expensive, mainly because the research and development costs are high, and the number of patients is small, so the drug costs cannot be spread out."
“There are drugs that cost millions of dollars.”
Thinking of the six-year-old blind boy, Yu Zhiming couldn't help but feel sympathy.
"Zhou Mo, please send me the video of the little boy raising money for medical treatment..."
Soon, Yu Zhiming received a video link.
He clicked on his phone, which redirected him to a video playback page and started playing it.
After the video started playing for a while, a little boy and a haggard middle-aged man appeared on the screen.
As soon as the man opened his mouth, Yu Zhiming sat up in shock.
That big liar...
