009 Gambling
Beijing Beicheng Hospital is a Grade A hospital in Beijing and the venue for this traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine competition. It is only a street away from the hotel chosen by the old Chinese medicine doctor. The walking distance is no more than 500 meters, so after breakfast, everyone chose to walk.
When I walked out of the hotel, it was already eight o'clock, but the sky was still as gray as when Wang Zhengyu just woke up. The heavy haze embellished the capital like a fairyland.
"I used to hear that the haze in the capital was heavy on the Internet, but today I finally experienced it myself!" Wang Zhengyu looked at the confused area fifty meters away and couldn't help but sigh.
"Little brother rarely goes out, do you?" Dr. Liu next to him answered.
"Yes! It's still a student. If there is no long vacation, you can only stay in Jiangcheng every day!"
"That's it! In fact, this haze is really the most delicious in the capital. The haze in your Jiangcheng is moist and elegant, but it is not as rich as the smell in the capital. The haze in Beihe is rough and bold, but unfortunately it lacks the foundation of haze in Beijing. I personally think that this haze also needs to be accumulated. The old haze in Beijing is thicker than the new haze in the south, softer in the nose, but not mellow. If you taste it carefully, you will be slightly sweet. So, it is absolutely right to come to the capital city to taste haze more in the future!" Dr. Liu joked.
"Brother Wang, don't listen to Lao Liu talking nonsense. I want me to say that the haze in the capital is hidden from the outside, and it will be blinded by people's eyes when it is absorbed into the body. Otherwise, how could the experts in the capital be so hard? Today's genetic modification is good, tomorrow's traditional Chinese medicine pseudoscience, and the ancestors left a little thing, they will ruin it!" Old Zhang said more and more angrily.
Wang Zhengyu smiled and said nothing.
Mr. Zhang's words were obviously directed at Chen Jian, the initiator of this arena competition and the director of the internal medicine department of Xicheng Hospital.
Although Wang Zhengyu was not concerned about the dispute over traditional Chinese and Western medicine, as a hot topic on the Internet, Wang Zhengyu, as a hardcore netizen, naturally learned about the whole thing from the Internet.
In fact, Xicheng Hospital is also well-known in Beijing, especially the internal medicine department of the hospital, which is ranked among the country. Therefore, as the chief physician of the hospital's internal medicine department, Chen Jianxia is also a celebrity.
Especially when Dr. Chen Jian was working, he liked to play with **. Over the years, he had accumulated more than one million fans. So this guy claimed on ** that traditional Chinese medicine is pseudoscience and claimed that he had given out 100,000 yuan to call traditional Chinese medicine for a competition to diagnose pulses and test pregnancy.
As soon as these words were said, they were naturally hyped up by the media who were afraid of chaos in the world. So the Chinese medicine practitioners could no longer sit still and began to conquer and support. After a few years of competition preparation and fermentation, there was even a trend towards national entertainment.
So in this situation, the time was determined and officially started. The selection was made during the National Day Golden Week, so that traditional Chinese medicine practitioners who were interested in signing up had time to come to Beijing.
...
In just a few words, the group had already arrived at Beicheng Hospital.
Wang Zhengyu thought their group was already early enough, but when he came to Beicheng Hospital, he realized that they were not early. Although there were many shadows, there were crowds of people at the entrance of the hospital, and the media's long spears and short cannons could not even block the smog.
"Such a big battle?" Wang Zhengyu suddenly felt a little nervous.
"It's been like this these two days! The organizing committee took two days to discuss the competition procedures, and these media were here for two days. If you came two days earlier, you would have to be blocked by reporters at the hotel door for interviews every day!" Zhang Datong explained.
"Hehe, yes! As the vice president of our Chinese Medicine Association, Lao Zhang also accepted an exclusive media interview! Brother Wang, Lao Zhang praised Haikou in front of reporters, especially today's competition, including the Central TV station. Several media broadcast live broadcasts. You must take it seriously and make trouble elsewhere, otherwise Lao Zhang's old face would not be put out!" Dr. Liu quipped.
"There are also media live broadcasts?" Wang Zhengyu was stunned. He really didn't know this.
Since he failed to confess his love at school, he has not been online much. During the National Day holiday, Huo Guangbo was directly dragged to travel, and he had no time to pay attention to online news. So although he knew about this ring match, he really didn't know that this match would be on TV, so he couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Okay, don't be nervous, let's go in!" Zhang Datong glared at Dr. Liu beside him, comforted Wang Zhengyu, and then walked towards the gate of Beicheng Hospital first.
At this point, although Wang Zhengyu felt relieved, he could only follow Mr. Zhang like a duck to put it on the shelves, and hide in a group of people, trying to keep a low profile and follow everyone towards the hospital gate.
Perhaps it was the smog that covered Wang Zhengyu's figure, or perhaps it was because he was too young and obviously had a difference from the image of traditional Chinese medicine in people's minds. No one was embarrassed by the media people guarding the door. However, Mr. Zhang and Dr. Liu were pestered and answered many questions. With the help of security guards, the group of people broke through numerous obstacles and walked into the hospital from the outpatient department.
The hospital has already made preparations, and the emergency room and the outpatient department are completely separated. Not only are the red carpets laid on the outpatient department, but signs leading to the competition position are also set up along the road. There are also beauties in etiquette clothes to greet him.
However, what made Wang Zhengyu feel much more relaxed was that there were obviously fewer reporters in the hospital at this time, and these reporters had obviously interviewed this group of people, but they just greeted him politely and did not come to pester them.
"Come on, Brother Wang, go ahead!" Mr. Zhang suddenly and sincerely invited.
"No, don't! You are respected, so you should always lead the way!"
Although Mr. Zhang said sincerely and obviously wanted to create momentum for Wang Zhengyu, Wang Zhengyu hurriedly refused. Just kidding, he was too late to be low-key at this time, so he didn't want to show off such a limelight.
Old Zhang, who was a mature man, obviously saw Wang Zhengyu's mood, and was no longer shirked at the moment, and walked in front first. He was the etiquette beauty responsible for leading the way. When he heard the two of them answered, he looked at Wang Zhengyu strangely.
The competition venue was set up in the conference room on the sixth floor of the hospital. When Wang Zhengyu stepped into the venue, he looked around and saw an ordinary conference room that could accommodate about 200 people. The front row of the rostrum was filled with glass signs with names written on it, and there were still no one there. There were dozens of people scattered behind him.
The rostrum was obviously specially arranged, and the back of the rostrum was separated by a thick curtain. It was obviously a curtain that separated the Chinese medicine doctor from the patient. A diagnosis and treatment table was placed on the left side of the curtain. On both sides of the rostrum, many people were nervously debugging various recording equipment.
"Please, everyone!" The etiquette lady bowed slightly, stretched out a hand, and pointed to the left position under the rostrum. This is the place reserved for traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.
"President Zhang, Director Liu, I came here very early today!"
Everyone was about to sit down one by one, but suddenly hello came from behind. Wang Zhengyu turned his head and saw a middle-aged man in his forties walking into the gate of the venue.
This is a very particular person.
My hair was neatly combed backwards, and there was no wrinkle on the gray suit, and even the tie joints were meticulously tidy.
"He is Chen Jian, the director of internal medicine here. Today, this grandson caused this incident!" Doctor Liu whispered to Wang Zhengyu.
Speaking of which, Wang Zhengyu had no good feelings for Dr. Chen Jian at this time. If this guy hadn't made trouble, he should have been staying in the school dormitory and discussing with Huo Guangbo how to make a fortune in silence. How could he still need to come to this muddy water? So by the way, Chen Jian's fat face that looked kind and Zhou Zheng seemed particularly disgusting in Wang Zhengyu's eyes.
"How can we not get early? If Director Chen makes such a fuss, why don't we get early, we shouldn't let people with ulterior motives think that we Chinese medicine doctors are afraid? That's wrong with Director Chen's wish?" Mr. Zhang was too lazy to be slandered and said bluntly.
"The more you argue, the more you become clearer. Since everyone is so confident in traditional Chinese medicine, it is just right to show it out, so that those of us who do not believe in traditional Chinese medicine will also gain insight. If traditional Chinese medicine wins, isn't it better to promote national culture!" Chen Jian was not angry, but seemed quite well-educated.
"Oh? So, we should also thank Director Chen for his kind support?" Old Zhang said sarcastically.
"Old Zhang, you are so old that you don't have to worry about such people who forget their ancestors. If you dogs bite people, we can't bite them back, right? When the competition is over, it's not too late to see how this person performs." Wang Zhengyu suddenly interrupted.
Although Wang Zhengyu was really upset at this Chen Jian, he really didn't want to interrupt at this time. If Tian Shu, who had not been silent, suddenly made a request at this time.
Wang Zhengyu's words immediately stimulated the pretentious doctor. Chen Jian, who had just piled up a hypocritical smile, began to look ugly.
"Old Zhang, is this young man..." Chen Jian asked in his voice, his tone even colder.
"This is my little brother, and his ancestors are also Chinese medicine practitioners. To be honest, we will unanimously discuss and decide. Today, this little brother will take over us!" Old Zhang said vaguely.
"Oh? You are not always on the battlefield in person? I said to Mr. Zhang, you are not afraid of not being able to afford to lose. You just want to find a young boy to fool him, right?" Seeing that he had broken his face, Chen Jian was too lazy to be polite and said sarcastically.
"Haha, since Director Chen thinks so, how about we take a private bet?" Old Zhang turned his eyes and said.
"What are you betting on?" Chen Jian asked back.
"My old bones have made some money by practicing medicine over the years. I don't save much, and there are 500,000 or 600,000 yuan. You say that traditional Chinese medicine is a pseudoscience, and then all the things we make in love over the years are all deceptive money. Since that's the case, it's too hot for me to take it out, so why don't you take it out and bet with you! Let's bet with 500,000 yuan. If traditional Chinese medicine loses and loses this money to you, I will be completely clean and wash my hands and return to the field from now on! Of course, if our traditional Chinese medicine wins today, I will be able to take this money with peace of mind! How about it?"
"Old Zhang said it well. I don't feel at ease with the money I got from cheating. It's better for me to take out 100,000 yuan and gamble with Director Chen! I just don't know if Director Chen dares?" Doctor Liu, who was on the side, also said immediately.
"Yes, why don't you add me one too? I'll pay 200,000! But Dr. Chen is not a liar, I'm afraid he can't cheat so much money and dare not take over!"
"Everyone is so happy, I don't seem to be sociable, right? I pay 300,000! Director Chen is afraid of even a young man, right?"
