Transforming a person completely inside and out into another person tests one's solid basic skills and exceptionally rich plastic surgery experience.
However, from the perspective of surgical technique, the requirements aren't particularly high.
For these two points, basic skills and experience, Lin Jie, who is inundated with vast amounts of knowledge, is truly not lacking.
To ensure the best postoperative results, Lin Jie was personally involved throughout the entire surgery process.
The assistants were really just assistants this time and didn't do much work compared to Lin Jie.
This resulted in Lin Jie being utterly exhausted by the end of the eleven-hour surgery.
By nearly seven in the evening, after getting in the car to go home, Lin Jie was so exhausted that he didn't even want to move his fingers, feeling like he could fall asleep right away.
"Lin Jie, Hu Yuanqing held a press conference this afternoon."
Hearing Qin Gang's voice, Lin Jie was too tired to speak and just hummed in response.
"At the press conference, Hu Yuanqing, along with the entire Hu Family, not only kneeled in public to apologize, but also promised that the Hu Family will not shirk responsibility or evade it; they will assume all responsibilities."
"Hu Yuanqing announced that in the past five years, patients from Binhai or other regions who received treatment for cardiac and cardiovascular diseases at Kangning Hospital can undergo detailed physical examinations at five tertiary hospitals, including Binhai University Affiliated Hospital, Donghua Hospital, City First Hospital, Tongren Hospital, and Limin Hospital."
"Kangning Hospital will cover all examination costs."
"If any discomfort is identified during the examination, Kangning Hospital will bear all or part of the costs according to the correlation of the medical experts' diagnosis."
"As for the compensation issue..."
"Hu Yuanqing stated that after the judicial authorities make their final decision on this incident, they will actively compensate."
"He also promised that even if it means selling all the Hu Family assets, they will provide satisfactory compensation to all victims."
Lin Jie yawned, humming lightly: "Anyone can talk, but let's see if they can truly deliver."
By this time, the car had already driven out of the Armed Police General Hospital.
After getting the car onto the elevated highway, Qin Gang continued: "Hu Yuanqing also said one more thing during the press conference..."
He glanced at Lin Jie through the rearview mirror and said, "He apologized to you."
"Hu Yuanqing said they will publish an apology announcement in the name of the Hu Family in major newspapers like Guangming Daily and Binhai Evening News tomorrow to express their deepest apologies to you formally."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jie couldn't help but recall the condition he agreed upon with Hu Yuanqing back then for treating his arm's nerve damage.
One of the conditions was requiring the Hu Family to make a public apology statement in major media.
Thinking of this, Lin Jie narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Hu Yuanqing is still hoping to recover his arm, it seems."
"He might not understand that times have changed."
"Moreover, some things cannot be resolved just because of Hu Yitong's death..."
Upon returning home, Lin Jie was surprised to find not only An Kexin but also An Weize present.
"Uncle An, are you here because of Hu Yuanqing's press conference?"
"Partly,"
Seeing Lin Jie's fatigue, An Weize asked with concern: "Are you tired?"
"How about this, you rest first, and we'll talk tomorrow. Some things don't need to be rushed."
"No need, Miaomiao can give me a massage, and I'll be fine."
Lin Jie stopped An Weize, who was about to leave, and smiled: "I'm curious now, and if Uncle An avoids talking about it, I won't be able to rest well."
At this time, Lin Miao came over, supported him, and said with concern: "Brother, just lie on the sofa first, I'll give you a massage!"
Following her words, Lin Jie lay down on the sofa, and Lin Miao began to massage his neck and shoulders.
An Kexin started massaging one of his arms.
Sitting on the sofa opposite Lin Jie, An Weize quietly said: "After Hu Yuanqing finished the press conference at noon, he acted quite swiftly."
"He transferred ten million funds each to the University Affiliated Hospital, Donghua Hospital, and the other three hospitals for the preliminarily advanced payment for patients' physical examination costs."
With a significant tone, An Weize asked: "A-Jie, would you like to guess where this money came from?"
Lin Jie curiously asked back: "With the Hu Family's strength, taking out fifty million shouldn't be an issue, right?"
"Alternatively, if they used something as collateral to borrow fifty million from the bank or friends, it should be relatively easy."
"After all, the foundation of Kangning Hospital and the Hu Family is firmly established."
An Weize nodded in agreement: "You're not wrong to think this way."
"In this critical moment, anyone willing to lend the Hu Family such a significant amount of cash must have an extremely close relationship with them."
"A-Jie, what if I told you that the money came from Wantong Group, which doesn't have a particularly close relationship with the Hu Family?"
"The Han Family told me that, apart from lending the Hu Family one hundred million cash today, Wantong Group is actively arranging a ten-billion fund."
Lin Jie suddenly asked with some understanding: "Has the Hu Family reached a private agreement with Luo Wantong to transfer Kangning Hospital to Phoenix Mountain Hospital?"
An Weize sighed and said slowly: "That's what I think, otherwise, Luo Wantong wouldn't be so generous, proactive, and agile."
"With the strong strength of Wantong Group paired with the excellent location of Kangning Hospital..."
With a tone of concern, An Weize said: "A-Jie, this competition next year will be incredibly intense!"
Taking a moment, Lin Jie chuckled lightly: "Uncle An, if not for this counterfeit drug event, Kangning Hospital would have been our direct competitor."
"And Phoenix Mountain Hospital, because of Luo Wantong, is also a fierce competitor against us."
"Now, Wantong Group taking over Kangning Hospital successfully just means merging the two hospitals into one."
"Uncle An, while this isn't good news for us, it's not the worst."
With confidence, Lin Jie said: "Our long-term goal is an internationally renowned medical center, pitting us against international medical institutions of the caliber of the Mayo Clinic and Massachusetts General Hospital as direct competitors in the future."
"Regarding the likes of Phoenix Mountain Hospital, to be blunt..."
"Though during the initial stage of Anlin Hospital, we need to pay attention to the competition from them,"
"they are not yet qualified to be real competitors of Anlin Hospital."
Upon hearing such an ambitious statement, An Weize's first feeling was that he has truly grown old, no longer having any bursts of ambition.
With a thoughtful grin, he said: "Right, compared to our goal, an institution like Phoenix Mountain Hospital is negligible, merely a small hurdle we need to overcome."
"We need to strategically underestimate our opponents. I was too cautious and overcareful."
The worry on An Weize's face lessened significantly, and he continued: "Hu Yuanqing also mentioned in the press conference that he would publish an apology announcement in tomorrow's newspaper to apologize to you."
"A-Jie, what are your thoughts on this matter?"
Lin Jie considered and then said: "He's attempting to prompt me to perform surgery for his arm's nerve damage repair?"
With a satisfied smile, An Weize said: "That was my thought as well."
"Up next, perhaps a wave of people will seek leniency for him by visiting us."
"A-Jie, how do you perceive this?"
Lin Jie snorted: "Hu Yuanqing seems too eager, too utilitarian, not sincerely apologetic."
"After his father's death, instead of thinking about handling the aftermath or quickly dealing with the massive issue of counterfeit drugs, he immediately thought of his own arm injury."
Mockingly, he said: "The Hu Family's selfish nature seems to be passed down from generation to generation!"
"During that time, by choosing to become the director of Kangning Hospital and following his father's will, he, as an adult, must take responsibility for that choice."
With a soft sigh, An Weize said: "I understand now."
"I will spread your thoughts through some channels."
"Given the Hu Family's current situation, those willing to take the risk of offending you to plead for him might exist, but there certainly won't be many..."
Suddenly, Lin Jie remembered something and asked: "Uncle An, Old Master Fu should have been prepared for this; how did Luo Wantong outmaneuver him?"
An Weize shook his head: "That's what puzzles me too."
"Maybe the terms offered by the Fu Family didn't align with the Hu Family's preferences as much as those from Luo Wantong."
