Chapter 458 Everyone hold your breath and wait for me to continue
I arrived at Mr. Deng's place early. He took me to the tea room next door and we chatted over tea.
About twenty minutes later, Tian Dehan arrived and I went to the corridor to greet him.
After entering the tea room, I introduced them to each other.
Mr. Deng said, "Any friend introduced by Shanhong is my friend. Once you meet someone, you'll become familiar with them. Secretary, please take a seat."
The three of them sat down, and Mr. Deng said, "I'll be the tea boy, and we can chat casually."
Tian Dehan said, "Master Shanhong, can you predict how long this epidemic will last?"
I smiled and said, "I'm not a god, but the pandemic will only last three years, which is the conclusion drawn by the ancients over thousands of years. You must have faith."
Tian Dehan said, "The blueprint you originally drew for me has indeed encountered some resistance. Man proposes, God disposes. It has stagnated in the past two years."
I smiled and said, "You won't blame me, will you?"
"I don't blame you. No one can resist it."
"Some people at Rising Sun blame me, saying I'm pushing tourism. But the tourism business isn't doing well."
Mr. Deng shook his head and said, "Those who say bad things about you are ignorant. Mr. Chen is in charge of the tour. You are just offering advice."
Tian Dehan said, "Some people are saying this deliberately. There's also some talk in the village, saying I'm hiring some kind of Wan Daxian to develop a bamboo village. There's no progress. They're not attacking you, but looking for an excuse to attack me."
I don't care. Not to mention you, Master Wan, there are so many scientists in the world, who could have predicted the outbreak? Man cannot defeat nature.
Mr. Deng said, "That's right. People can only make limited efforts under the laws of nature."
After discussing the situation for a while, we got to the point.
I talked about my thoughts for twenty minutes and finally made them clear.
Mr. Deng added: "This is a relatively long-term project. My idea is to first establish an institution, which can be called a research institute or a laboratory.
We will first invest 5 to 10 million yuan, let Professor Zhang Youcheng lead his team to conduct research, then apply for a patent, and after it passes national certification, we will invest more money to turn it into a product."
When Tian Dehan heard this, he said, "Professor Zhang is a man whose wife is very strict with him. It's as if she's afraid that he'll cheat on her.
There were a lot of young women taking their children to the doctor. They often called him. So his wife usually didn't allow him to go out at night.
But I do have a good relationship with him. Whenever his brothers and nephews from his hometown come to me for help, I still take care of them.
I can talk to him first and see if he's willing. Of course, the specific communication still depends on you."
I was a little impatient and asked, "How close is your relationship? Can you do what I did to you? If I call him over and he comes over, he will come."
"Can."
"It's still early, only eight o'clock, why don't we go see him now?"
President Deng waved his hand: "The old man needs to rest."
Tian Dehan said: "I'm not old at all, I'm just fifty."
Mr. Deng said, "Oh, oh, oh, I've only heard of him but never met him. He's still very young."
Tian Dehan said, "Give it a try. He's also interested in yin and yang, the five elements, and fortune-telling. But you can't go to his house. His wife is always sullen with everyone."
After saying that, Tian Dehan stood up and prepared to go outside to make a phone call.
President Deng stopped Tian Dehan and said, "Secretary, let's not talk about cooperation yet. Since he likes fortune-telling, just say we're just chatting."
Tian Dehan nodded and walked out to the corridor.
Mr. Deng said, "So you're not that old. About the same age as me."
I said, "I haven't seen him either. Judging from his photos, he's over fifty. His hair is a little gray."
Mr. Deng said, "Being a doctor means growing old. Some diseases can't be cured, but rather by belief. Believe in him, and you'll be fine."
I laughed out loud: "That makes sense."
At this time, Tian Dehan walked to the door and said, "Promise to come right away. It will only take twenty minutes. He lives in Huaxi Lake."
The three of them sat down and started chatting about everything.
More than ten minutes later, Tian Dehan's phone rang and he immediately went downstairs to answer it.
After a while, he came in with Zhang Youcheng. I looked at him and saw that he was actually younger than his photo. He looked to be in his forties.
He didn't look like the famous doctor I'd imagined. He had a buzz cut, a broad forehead, a high nose, and thick lips. He was a little over 1.7 meters tall. He didn't wear glasses. Walking among the crowd, he looked like an ordinary person.
Tian Dehan said, "Professor, let me introduce you to two good friends. This one is Mr. Deng, the richest man in Wuxiang, who is now investing in hospitals in the Philippines."
Zhang Youcheng smiled and said, "Nice to meet you. People who support the medical profession are all good people."
Mr. Deng said, "I've heard of your great name for a long time, but I didn't know you were so young."
Tian Dehan said, "Let me introduce you to my second friend, Wan Shan Hong. He represents the first three characters of the poem 'Wan Shan Hong Bian' (Red All Over the Mountains)' by Chairman Mao. He used to be a cultural consultant for the Rising Sun Group, and now he runs a hospital with Chairman Deng."
Zhang Youcheng extended his hand and shook it, saying, "He's a good man, too."
I laughed and said, "Four people, three of them are related to medicine, and only one is a bad guy."
Zhang Youcheng smiled and said, "He's not a bad person. The Dongli Town Hospital is well built thanks to his attention. Without the leadership's attention, nothing can be accomplished. So he is a good person."
Everyone laughed. Mr. Deng asked everyone to sit down, poured a cup of tea for Zhang Youcheng, and refilled the water glasses for Tian Dehan and me. Then he said, "I'm sorry, the professor is very famous, but Shanhong and I have only heard of him."
Zhang Youcheng smiled and said, "As for me, it's best if you don't look for me. It's best if the child is safe and sound."
Mr. Deng said, "I heard you don't even have time to go to the bathroom during the day."
He sighed, “Life is good now, and I can get better with just some medicine and a few injections.
But some people are always worried. If the disease doesn't heal after a few days, they will bring it to me.
I repeatedly told them that a fever of 39 degrees Celsius was okay. Without a few fevers, how could they develop antibodies? Without antibodies, they would catch a cold again. But they wouldn't listen.
So the reason they line up to see me is not because I’m a good doctor, but because of the support of parents.”
Everyone laughed, but I actually thought Professor Zhang was a very honest person. Despite his fame, at least he wasn't arrogant or boastful.
Tian Dehan said, "You usually like fortune-telling, and this Wan Shanhong is also knowledgeable in this field. I just asked him to tell my fortune. Because he is so accurate, I asked you to come over and get together."
Zhang Youcheng said, "Really? My grandfather likes this business. I learned a little bit when I was a kid. I only know the basics."
I said, "This is easy to understand. There has always been a saying that medicine and witchcraft have the same principles. A good Chinese medicine practitioner is like a good fortune teller.
Just one look can reveal someone's internal organs and where their problems lie. Face reading is essentially the application of the "observation" of the traditional Chinese medicine method of observation, listening, questioning, and palpation.
Zhang Youcheng said: "Back when there were only green-skinned trains, I went to Beijing to attend an academic conference. On the train, I chatted with my seatmate and became familiar with him. He used a fortune-telling to predict my fortune, and it turned out to be quite accurate."
Tian Dehan said: "You want Shanhong to give you a character test to test his level."
Zhang Youcheng said, "Do you want me to test you on something specific, or anything at all?"
I smiled and said, "It's fine if you like."
He said, "It's the '行' in '随随也行' that you just said. Tell me what I've been busy with lately."
Although Mr. Deng and Tian Dehan believed in my skills, they were both curious and worried about whether I could figure out what Zhang Youcheng was busy with.
I'm curious about how I can test it. I'm worried about whether I can get it right in the middle of nowhere.
I took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and said, "Get busy with the things that matter to you most."
"What exactly?"
"Specifically, I can't tell you the name, but I can give you an analysis."
Everyone hold your breath and wait for me to continue -
