Great Doctor Without Borders

Chapter 1381 Fell

The surroundings suddenly became quiet. Gu Houyi felt his body slowly rising after falling, as if a pair of invisible hands were holding him up and floating upwards. Anxious voices came to his ears: "Dean Gu..."

"Dean Gu...can you hear me?"

Xu Chunliang learned from Gao Xinhua that Gu Houyi had suffered a sudden heart attack. After the onset of the disease, Gu Houyi was rushed to the nearest Medical University Affiliated Hospital.

When Xu Chunliang rushed to the affiliated hospital, Gu Houyi was still in the operating room, and Gao Xinhua and Gu Houyi's wife Xie Mei were waiting outside.

Seeing Xu Chunliang coming, Gao Xinhua came forward to greet him.

Xu Chunliang asked with concern: "How is the situation?"

Gao Xinhua said: "The rescue was timely, so it should be fine. Fortunately, the Medical University Affiliated Hospital is just across the street, otherwise it would be troublesome."

Xu Chunliang asked, "What's going on? Why is Director Gu here?"

Gao Xinhua simply told Xu Chunliang everything that had happened. Xu Chunliang clenched his fists in anger. Fu Guomin's behavior this time was too unkind. He agreed to talk to Gu Houyi alone, but he brought so many reporters to surround and intercept him. Gu Houyi was a man who valued his face more than anything else. Everything that happened today was simply a humiliation to him.

At this time, medical staff escorted Gu Houyi out after the interventional surgery. Several people went over and the attending doctor told them not to be nervous. The interventional surgery was very successful and Gu Houyi had passed the danger, but he had to be sent to the CCU for monitoring for the time being.

They accompanied Gu Houyi to the CCU ward. According to relevant regulations, Xu Chunliang and Gao Xinhua had to stay. Xie Mei's emotions had stabilized a little at this time. She turned to them and said, "Thank you. You have been tired for so long. Go back first. I will take care of Old Gu."

Gao Xinhua said: "Sister-in-law, do the children know?"

Xie Mei shook her head and said, "I'm busy with work and don't want them to worry."

Gao Xinhua said: "It's always bad not to talk about such a big thing."

Xie Mei sighed, looked at Xu Chunliang and said, "Xiao Xu, I have something to say to you."

Gao Xinhua tactfully went to smoke somewhere far away.

Xu Chunliang said: "Aunt Xie, please go ahead."

Xie Mei said: "Thank you for your trust and care for Lao Gu. You also saw what happened today. He is old and is no longer suitable for management work. His heart can't bear too much pressure."

Xu Chunliang said, "Aunt Xie, Director Gu talked to me yesterday and he has officially resigned from Changshan Hospital, but the formalities have not been completed yet. Now all his medical expenses will be borne by Changshan Hospital in accordance with regulations. You can just rest assured and let him recuperate for a while. When his physical condition allows, we can consider other things."

Xie Mei shook her head and said, "That's not what I meant. Lao Gu has his own medical insurance, so Changshan Hospital doesn't have to bear the expenses. He has already gained a lot from Changshan Hospital. I mean, I want him to withdraw completely, including the shares of Changshan Hospital."

Xu Chunliang said: "Auntie, owning shares does not mean that he has to continue working for Changshan Hospital."

Xie Mei said: "I know him. He can't sit still. As long as he has Changshan's shares, he will treat Changshan Hospital as his home. So, I want to completely stop his thoughts and transfer the shares."

Xu Chunliang said: "Aunt Xie, Changshan Hospital is in a stage of rapid development. It is not wise for you to transfer your shares now."

What Xu Chunliang said was true. With the current growth rate of Changshan Hospital, the value of the 10% stake in Gu Houyi's hands might increase tenfold or even a hundredfold in the future. Transferring the shares at this time would be tantamount to giving up high future dividends.

Xie Mei smiled calmly, "We are so old now, it's not like we don't have enough money to spend. The children all have their own careers, and leaving them too much money is not necessarily a good thing. Old Gu has worked hard all his life. He is too competitive and always competes with himself, but he is not young after all. This incident is a reminder to him that people cannot devote their whole lives to work. They should let go when it is time to let go. I have always wanted him to accompany me around. In the past, I would wait until he retired, but I didn't expect that he would be unable to stay idle even after retirement. Just for my own selfish reasons, I want him to retire completely."

Xu Chunliang nodded: "Aunt Xie, I understand. I will arrange for them to evaluate Gu Yuan's shares as soon as possible and complete the transfer procedures."

Xie Mei patted his arm and said, "Go and do your work. You don't need to worry about Lao Gu. Also, can you tell Fu Guomin that we have apologized. If he expects compensation in cash, we can try to satisfy him under reasonable conditions. But I don't want him to use groundless speculation to discredit Lao Gu's reputation. If I find out, I will never tolerate it. I will take him to court and fight to the end."

When Xu Chunliang came over, Gao Xinhua had just finished smoking a cigarette.

Xu Chunliang told Gao Xinhua what Xie Mei had just said. When Gao Xinhua heard that they decided to transfer the shares, he immediately became interested, but he didn't want to say it out loud. After all, Gu Houyi had just recovered from surgery not long ago. If he proposed to buy Gu Houyi's shares at this time, it would be like taking advantage of the situation.

Although Gao Xinhua didn't say anything, Xu Chunliang suggested: "Uncle Gao, how about you take over?"

Gao Xinhua said, "It's not appropriate." "What's inappropriate? It's good for the family. Don't you think highly of the future of Changshan Hospital?"

Gao Xinhua said: "If I had joined when it was first launched, I would have no hesitation. It's a bit inconvenient now."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "You are worried that others will gossip and say that you are taking advantage of the situation."

Gao Xinhua smiled embarrassedly: "It's not just this reason. Changshan is developing so well now, and the valuation is at least 100 million. Dean Gu's shares are probably worth 10 million. How can I have so much money?"

Xu Chunliang said: "Your goddaughter has money, you can borrow from her."

Gao Xinhua said, "How can that be possible? But I can think of a way to get 5%. Chunliang, how about this? I will temporarily subscribe to 5%, and for the remaining 5%, you can see what other people think. You can use this opportunity to improve the enthusiasm of the main managers of the hospital."

Xu Chunliang nodded. Gao Xinhua really couldn't come up with that much money right now, so his proposal was feasible.

At this time, Xu Chunliang's cell phone rang, and it was a call from Zhao Xinting.

After Xu Chunliang answered the call, he called her sister-in-law.

Zhao Xinting called mainly to inquire about Gu Houyi's situation. She heaved a sigh of relief when she learned that Gu Houyi was out of danger.

Xu Chunliang said, "Sister-in-law, I'm going to say something you don't want to hear. Old Fu's current behavior is very irrational. He is just escalating the situation to vent his anger, but it will eventually hurt many people, including you."

Zhao Xinting sighed on the other end of the phone and said, "Chunliang, I advised him. I didn't know he would bring reporters to meet with Dean Gu. If I had known, I would definitely stop him."

Xu Chunliang said: "I hope that what happened today can make him sober up a little."

Zhao Xinting said, "Chunliang, this incident has caused him so much stress that I don't even recognize him anymore. I'm worried that if this incident continues, it will get out of control. Can you help me persuade Lao Fu?"

Xu Chunliang said, "Sister-in-law, I tried to persuade him, but he didn't listen. Now the matter has become a big deal. It has had a huge negative impact not only on the parties involved, but also on Changxing Hospital and even the entire Dongzhou medical system. It can be said that all major hospitals in Dongzhou are facing a crisis of trust."

Zhao Xinting said, "Chunliang, I really don't know what to do. Fan Xiaopeng is my biological son, and Xuedong is also my son. I have the same feelings for them. I hope Xiaopeng is okay, and I don't want to hurt Xuedong."

Xu Chunliang said: "If you all thought so, you shouldn't have used such an extreme method to deal with the problem in the first place."

Zhao Xinting said: "Chunliang, I just want this matter to end soon. Old Fu still listens to you."

Xu Chunliang had no choice but to agree to give it a try. After ending the call, he immediately called Fu Guomin, but Fu Guomin didn't answer his call at all.

When Xu Chunliang and Gao Xinhua left the affiliated hospital, they saw several reporters downstairs in the ward. Those reporters were also trying to find out about Gu Houyi's current situation through their own channels.

Gao Xinhua sighed and said, "Bad news is flying everywhere. Someone publicly released false news, saying that Director Gu committed suicide because of guilt."

Xu Chunliang said angrily: "Let me find out who is talking nonsense, and I will slap him in the mouth."

Several reporters ran to the front, and it turned out to be Zhao Feiyang, the director of Changxing Hospital, who came to visit Gu Houyi.

Gao Xinhua could not help but frown. What was Zhao Feiyang doing here at this sensitive moment? Didn't he know that keeping a low profile was the right way to solve the problem? Coming here would only attract public attention.

Zhao Feiyang did not rush into the ward building, but stood there to accept the interview with the reporter. He looked calm and composed, and answered the reporters' questions eloquently, expressing the clear attitude that Changxing Hospital would be responsible for this incident to the end. At the same time, he also emphasized that this incident happened seventeen years ago. At that time, the leadership of Changxing Hospital had great deficiencies in management. Changxing Hospital has taken serious measures against the medical staff who were responsible at that time.

Xu Chunliang and Gao Xinhua stood in the crowd looking at Zhao Feiyang. They both felt that Zhao Feiyang's behavior was a little abnormal. He did not look like he was under tremendous pressure. Instead, he exuded an inappropriate self-confidence.

Xu Chunliang was a little puzzled. After all, the current situation did not bring any benefits to Zhao Feiyang, the director of Changxing Hospital. According to what he learned, Wang Jianming was extremely angry about the public opinion caused by this incident and had issued a death order, requiring the cadres in charge at all levels to resolve the matter as soon as possible and quell the adverse effects caused by it.

Although there is no clear evidence that Zhao Feiyang used inappropriate strategy in handling the matter, he has not yet come up with a solution to the problem.
