The grass responded and then fell silent.
Then Lin Yao turned on his phone and returned several calls as instructed in the text messages. These were all calls from his mother, Lin Hongmei, his girlfriend, Xia Yuwen, and Ge Yong, who were asking him about the Nanchang incident.
Interview videos of Zhao Yunlong have begun circulating online. While the public has grown fond of this down-to-earth veteran, the criticism and pressure on Min Hong have increased dramatically. This incident, which the public considers to be Min Hong's "first special treatment," has attracted widespread attention.
The first special treatment announced by Minhong Charity Foundation was for Ding Xia in Taiyuan, Shanxi. However, netizens did not agree with this, because the special treatment was only obtained after Ding Xia's husband, Qiu Yong, donated 100 million yuan. Although the recipient of the donation was the Minhong Charity Foundation, the public did not see it that way. They do not believe anything related to money is pure, so Zhao Yunlong received more attention.
At 9 p.m., the media reporters were asked to leave Minhong Hospital so that patient Zhao Yunlong could have a quiet environment to rest.
Jiang Yi personally used a transparent steel frame to secure Zhao Yunlong, and added a piece of sponge wrapped in cotton cloth to Zhao Yunlong's right palm to make him more comfortable and not affect his finger movements. Then, with Lin Yao's tacit approval, he took Zhao Yunlong and a group of subordinates to a street food stall for a late-night snack, and also let Zhao Yunlong solve his dinner problem. This scene was still secretly filmed by several reporters, causing a great uproar.
The next day, the national public opinion regarding Minhong changed. No one pressured or condemned Minhong anymore; instead, people were amazed by her miraculous medical skills.
Photos and videos of Zhao Yunlong before he received treatment from Min Hong had already circulated online. Although his right wrist was injured by an explosion, the simple bandage clearly revealed that Zhao Yunlong's right hand had indeed been completely severed.
Then, an interview video of Zhao Yunlong after receiving treatment was uploaded to the internet again. Photos taken by reporters with professional cameras also showed that the hero who fought against the criminals was cured by Min Hong. Not only was his severed hand successfully reattached, but he was even able to start moving around. All of this happened in just a few hours.
This is like an April Fool's Day news story. If it happened to any other company, no one would believe it, but because it came from the convincing Minhong Pharmaceutical, everyone immediately believed it.
It turns out that Minhong really can create miracles!
It turns out that Minhong's medical skills are so amazing, they can even be called a miracle!
It turns out that Minhong's special treatment is truly a rare opportunity and honor! In the past, there were only a few reports and test reports from a few hospitals regarding the Ding Xia incident, so people didn't have a direct impression. But the regeneration of the severed hand and the joyful movement of the fingers are vivid examples. This is the first public demonstration of Minhong's medical skills.
This display is shocking and unbelievable.
"Yao'er, how did the reporters manage to capture such a detailed scene? Jiang Yi said you instructed us to let the reporters take pictures as they pleased."
After seeing the videos and photos online, Lin Hongmei immediately dialed Lin Yao's mobile phone, choosing a special number, as this type of one-time-use number allows her to speak freely without worrying about being eavesdropped on.
“Mom, since many people want to make things difficult for us and make me their full-time doctor, let’s just make the conflict public and let everyone know that Minhong has this kind of medical skill. Anyway, it’s no secret anymore. It’s good for the people to know, it will benefit Minhong.”
Lin Yao smiled and answered his mother's question, "I have good news for you. The money problem is solved. It's not 12.4 billion US dollars, but 16 billion. You should go to Citibank in Chengdu and open an account. The funds will be transferred to your account soon. Most of it is money from the United States, so it will be more convenient to transfer it through Citibank. In the future, we won't have to let A Long's company handle it. Anyway, everyone knows what's going on."
"So much money? What do we need so much money for? Didn't you say that we don't need to deal with those closed hospitals for the time being? The hospitals in the four southern provinces are also temporarily closed. As long as we pay off the bank loans, our family doesn't need so much money to do anything. The more money we have, the more interest we'll pay."
Lin Hongmei's primary concern wasn't opening an account at a foreign bank, but rather the interest rate. Although her son Lin Yao earned enough foreign exchange each year to cover the interest, the loans still needed to be repaid. Minhong didn't have much profit to begin with, and while Long Yihun's Longcheng Company had some of the highest profits in China, in US dollar terms, it was still far from enough to repay those loans.
Therefore, Lin Hongmei, who had been frugal all her life, immediately thought that Lin Yao had borrowed too much money and should have borrowed less.
"Mom, it's okay. Only 1.2 billion of this will accrue interest; the rest is all free. You'll only have to pay a small handling fee. Go open an account at Citibank, and while you're at it, open one at HSBC or Standard Chartered Bank as well. If the Americans want to distribute our medicines, they might have to go through Hong Kong in the future."
Lin Yao smiled and told his mother, Lin Hongmei, all his future plans. The gloom he felt that morning had long since vanished.
"Become an agent for our medicine?"
Lin Hongmei hesitated on the other end of the phone, "Our family doesn't even have enough medicine to sell ourselves, how could we possibly have any stock to sell to America!"
"Let's expand the scale. We have some extra money, so let's sell a few hundred more acres of land, build a factory and expand the production line at the same time."
Lin Yao offered a suggestion, which his parents already knew without him saying it: "By the way, I'll only let them distribute the 'Children's Cold Remedy Powder.' If you can manage the production, let them distribute the 'Whitening and Skin-Nourishing Powder' as well. The profit margin is higher, and we need to earn more money to pay off the loan."
...
Zhongnanhai, the Premier's Office.
Looking at the report in his hand, the Premier sighed.
"This Xiaolin, he really won't give up until he hits a brick wall. Now that he's revealed his medical skills, he's clearly going against those people. He's probably solved his loan problem too, but doesn't he know the importance of moderation? Why does he have to be so drastic?"
"Young man... sigh..."
Putting down the documents in his hand, the Premier rubbed his temples to dispel his fatigue.
The report deeply shocked the Premier. Although he already knew that Lin Yao was a skilled doctor and that some foreign patients could recover their health in a short period of time while staying in Beijing, the fact that a severed limb could be reattached and immediately become mobile was still astonishing.
The Premier sighed, reflecting on how he had suppressed Lin Yao's request to treat and recuperate for the national leader in order to maintain a balance of power and accommodate the feelings of those not in core positions, yet this still resulted in such a confrontational situation.
"Never mind them fighting. If we give up the help of a capable person we could have just to save face, it's not good for the country or its people. It's time to let Xiaolin help us old folks take care of our health..."
The Premier picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number.

[Regarding the update]
To be honest, the subscription situation for this book is really bad, so unless there are extremely unusual circumstances or I give prior notice, I will try my best to maintain an update of 10,000 words per day under normal circumstances (for the perfect attendance bonus, haha). If I don't reach 10,000 words, I will still update that day; if I exceed 10,000 words, there will be very few new chapters.
In addition, since I still haven't successfully saved up any chapters, I'm posting each chapter as soon as I finish writing it, so the update time is uncertain. I apologize for this and ask for your understanding!

The first special treatment case at Minhong Hospital had a significant social impact. Although Minhong Hospitals across the country now have almost no doctors or nurses, the public's superstitious belief in high-ranking figures still caught Minhong somewhat off guard.
Just as a martial arts master can attract many followers and worshippers with a wave of his arm, the public believes that the medical team at Minhong Hospital will definitely develop in the future.
