Chapter 438: Getting Things Out of Them
Chief Zhao quickly added, “I know you’re anxious, but the import drug review process is very slow. Perhaps other places will secretly open a back door for you on account of the Tang family or Lu Ming Corporation, but every decision made by our Drug Administration is closely related to the people. What if someone has irreversible side effects because of your medicine?
Are you going to drag us down with you?”
Lu Ming’s smile widened. “What gave you the illusion that you can stay out of this situation? Don’t you know how many people died from the Xingwei Preventive Medicine you approved? If this continues, your official reputation will be as good as ruined!”
He paused for a moment, took out his phone, and showed the screen to the two of them. He said, “Shi Xiong’s side is clearly a high-risk area. Why didn’t you send someone over to treat him earlier? If you could discover that something was wrong in advance, those doctors outside wouldn’t be afraid to go over now! I asked my doctors to risk their lives to save him!”
“You don’t feel anything, right? That’s right. You guys are commanding the people at the bottom in the capital. Even if an infectious disease really comes, you can receive the best treatment immediately. Sometimes… the lives of these ordinary people can be measured by benefits, right?”
What appeared on the screen was Shi Xiong in his tragic state. Doctors in protective suits were running around everywhere. Those who were sick had to lie on the floor at the door because the hospital was full. The pain caused them to give up their desire for life. Looking at their lifeless appearance, Chief Zhao and Chen Jianxin could barely breathe!
They never expected that the decision made by the higher-ups would lead to such a situation!
Anger, resignation, regret…
Mixed emotions surged in his heart. Chen Jianxin’s eyes unknowingly turned red. He forced himself to look at those photos. Because of his decision, those who should have been alive were on the verge of death. His original wishful thinking was also gone at this moment.
Chief Zhao slowly closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he said, “We’re just following orders. What the old leader wants to do is not something we can guess.”
The old leader?
Lu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not think that this was the old leader’s intention. Moreover, his adoptive father had a good relationship with him. How could he be a bad person? He often brought him to visit with the old leader. Just based on the comments he made about being a good judge of character, he did not seem like a ‘dumb ruler’ who could do such a thing!
There must be some misunderstanding!
......
“The old leader told you that himself?”
Chief Zhao shook his head and said, “Of course it’s Mr. Fang. The old leader is very busy every day. Why would he come to tell us about such a small matter personally? However, the meaning is about the same because Mr. Fang is his second-in-command. The old leader trusts him very much. Doesn’t he represent the old leader’s position?”
Chen Jianxin echoed, “Chief Zhao is right. Since it’s the old leader’s instructions, how can we not do it? We only listen to him. If he doesn’t allow us to pass the review, CEO Lu, you have to keep waiting. This can’t be helped. Who knows what the old leader is thinking!”
Given the current situation, that last sentence sounded more like self-comfort.
However, the old leader had been glorious for most of his life and had never made a wrong decision. It was precisely because of this that they trusted him so much.
Lu Ming lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought. If it was Fang Tiancheng, wouldn’t there be a lot of room for maneuver? In his opinion, the old leader and Fang Tiancheng were not the same kind of people. The other party was just deceived because his energy was not as good as before. Perhaps it was time to expose this matter.
“Thank you for your information. If you come to Shaping next time, I’ll bring you around the satellite city for a few days. I hope you can do me the honor.”
No matter what, this news was very important, so he would not be stingy.
The words ‘satellite city’ seemed to have touched their nerves. Their eyes instantly lit up. Was it the place they were thinking of?! They had long been looking forward to going there and taking a look. Now, firstly, they were busy with work, and secondly, they didn’t have that much money, because just listening to others’ descriptions made them want to buy a house in Shaping.
Unfortunately, they had been queuing for so long!
Lu Ming’s sudden invitation to stay for a few days was a pleasant surprise!
Hence, they patiently chatted with Lu Ming for a while before finding an excuse to leave. This time, it was a win-win situation. However, Lu Ming curled his lips and shook his teacup leisurely. He thought to himself,?As expected, the system’s products are all top-notch. If not for the previous reward, Query Technique, I’m afraid I would have returned empty-handed today!
In addition, he was glad that he had saved the photos before setting off. Otherwise, given how tight-lipped they were, they would probably have hidden half of what they said.
He raised his wrist to look at the time and muttered, “It’s still early. Let’s visit the old leader!”
…
Meanwhile, in the hallway of the main residence.
The leader in loose-fitting clothes was holding a cup of steaming tea in his hand. His eyes were slightly closed as he stared at the ground, looking like he was sleeping. Suddenly, a breeze blew, bringing with it a few traces of coolness. It made one want to relax and be immersed in such a scene forever.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of wooden boards creaking. The muscular young man in the black suit stood steadily beside him and said, “Fang Tiancheng has already convinced the Drug Administration. Now they all think that it’s your idea. Mr. Lu, who you asked me to keep an eye on, also asked the chief of the Drug Administration and the chief of the Imports Bureau to meet in Mr. Tang’s name. They just parted ways not long ago.”
After hearing the second half of the sentence, the old leader chuckled and said, “I thought he would be able to do something. I didn’t expect him to have such a childish side. I have to admit that this child is really smart. No wonder he told me to be careful of Fang Tiancheng after meeting him once. I think Old Zhao and Old Chen were shocked by him, right? Hahahaha.”
Ever since he was alerted last time, he had specially gotten someone to keep an eye on Fang Tiancheng. Because Lu Ming was entangled with these people midway, he also watched over his good friend’s adopted son. Therefore, he knew everything that Lu Ming had done recently. At the same time, he could not help but sigh. His good friend’s luck was really good!
“Ah Qing, what do you think of Lu Ming?”
The young man in the black suit, who was called Ah Qing, pondered for a long time and said, “… Mr. Lu is not bad. From the looks of it, everything he has done is to let people live better. At least he can still run around without giving up under pressure. Such perseverance is admirable.”
