After leaving the hospital gate, Li Quan finally managed to stop a taxi.
We rushed to Dongfang International Airport at full speed.
Huier Hospital is located in the center of Shanghai, more than 30 kilometers away from the airport. Shanghai has two airports, and Dongfang International Airport is the earliest one in operation.
The passenger throughput is very high.
In addition to domestic flights, there are also a large number of international flights.
In some first-tier cities, if you see a foreigner, you might find it strange. If you meet a blonde and blue-eyed foreigner in a third- or fourth-tier city, you might be treated like a monkey in a zoo.
But at the Shanghai International Airport, blond-haired and blue-eyed international friends are everywhere.
There are countless black people, white people, and returnees.
Even when sitting in a taxi, Li Quan still did not forget to read.
Heaven will not fail those who work hard.
In order to save Sophie, he read Qian Yi's medical books day and night. Then, with his sincere and kind heart, he moved heaven and earth, and finally, in less than 20 days, he successfully accumulated 100 points of favorability.
Finally, I got the special treatment for childhood blood disease.
This time he will continue to work hard and learn the Five Animal Exercises that are essential for treating leukemia.
In fact, learning the Five Animal Play techniques also brought great benefits to Li Quan himself.
After practicing, even if you don’t become a super master like in martial arts novels and TV dramas, at least you can prolong your life and strengthen your body.
The journey was relatively smooth.
They took the expressway and arrived at the exit of the expressway in less than 20 minutes. However, the cars in front of them were already lined up in a long queue, all waiting to exit the toll booth.
"Now playing a traffic news report, there was a car accident at the highway exit leading to China Eastern Airlines, causing a traffic jam at the toll station. Currently, 120 and traffic police have arrived at the scene to deal with the emergency..."
The latest traffic news was being broadcast on the taxi's in-car radio.
Li Quan took out his cell phone and checked the time. It was now 8:41, and there were only more than 40 minutes left until 9:25.
I hope the traffic accident ahead can be dealt with quickly and the road cleared.
Otherwise, he might be late.
What I am most worried about is that I won't be able to get to the airport in time to pick him up, and that some well-informed people with ulterior motives will abduct Professor Axen first.
"Master, how about I pay the fare and walk to the airport by myself! I'm in a hurry to pick someone up!" Li Quan watched the time pass by little by little, and the long queue of vehicles stuck in front of him did not move at all.
"Oh, that won't work. We're on the highway here, pedestrians are not allowed to get off the bus, and it's also very dangerous. Besides, it's still several kilometers from here to the international airport. If you walk, it will take at least half an hour."
The taxi driver quickly dissuaded him.
"Isn't this blocked? I'll walk on the shoulder next to it. It shouldn't be dangerous."
Li Quan was really anxious.
"Young man, I know you must be very anxious, but there are cameras all over the highway. I really can't get off the car, otherwise I will be fined . My family depends on the money I make from driving a taxi. Can you please be patient and wait a little longer? I can even not charge you for sending you to the airport."
The taxi driver was in his forties, almost fifty.
Men of this age have a very difficult life, with elderly parents to support and children to support in school. Generally speaking, when a man reaches this age, his parents are at least 60 years old or older.
When the elderly are over sixty years old, they will be plagued by various diseases.
It costs money to be hospitalized for treatment.
The cost of my children's education is also not small. There are also various household expenses, and I wish I could split every penny in half.
This taxi driver is at an age in his life when he faces the greatest financial pressure.
This is also the reason why he begged Li Quan not to get off the car.
If you get points or fined, your day’s driving will be in vain.
"Okay, Master, I won't make things difficult for you!" Li Quan did not mention getting out of the car again. He simply sat in the car and waited patiently for the road to return to normal.
The taxi driver thanked him profusely.
Do you ask in the taxi driver sharing group from time to time about the road conditions ahead?
Half an hour later, good news came from the front that the road had finally been cleared.
The traffic began to move slowly forward.
Li Quan felt helpless as he watched the time approaching nine twenty-five.
When the taxi drove out of the toll booth, it was already 9:25.
Li Quan couldn't help but sigh, man proposes, God disposes, and he would definitely be late for the airport pick-up.
Or the preparation work is not sufficient.
I originally thought that if everything went well, it would only take half an hour at most to get from the hospital to the international airport.
He left the hospital a little after eight.
I thought that I had about an hour and a half, which would be enough even if there was a traffic jam. Who would have thought that there would be a traffic jam. And it lasted for more than 40 minutes.
He took out his cell phone and quickly called Aixen.
"Sorry, the number you called is powered off..."
Li Quan was speechless for a while.
The phone number that Aixen left him was a US number. When he called it, it was turned off. He didn't know whether it was because he had to turn off his phone on an airplane or because Aixen's phone was out of battery.
It’s really a headache that I can’t get in touch with them.
But Li Quan was late.
Finally, the taxi sped all the way and took Li Quan to the Eastern Airlines Airport.
"Master, how much is it?"
"Young man, I'm very sorry that you were late for picking me up at the airport because of the traffic jam. You don't have to charge me for the taxi fare, just go and pick me up as soon as possible." The taxi driver apologized.
"Hey, you rely on this to support your family, how can I ride in your car for free? How much? Tell me quickly, I'm really in a hurry." Li Quan naturally couldn't take advantage of the taxi driver for free.
"Really? You should leave quickly. I'll go get the next customer."
The taxi driver was quite determined.
"Then I'll pay you two hundred yuan. If it's more, I'll treat you to tea. If it's less, it'll be your compensation to me." Li Quan took out two hundred-yuan bills and threw them into the passenger seat, then turned and ran.
"Hey, young man, come back, come back. Even if you really want to give it, you won't need so much." The taxi driver shouted loudly from behind.
"Master, it's easier for me to make money than for you, so keep it!"
A smile appeared on Li Quan's lips.
This is the first time I have given a tip to someone since I was a child. This is the first time I have been a "tycoon". I feel very happy just thinking about it.
It is true that he makes money more easily than a taxi driver.
In addition, the driver's kindness and honesty also made Li Quan particularly generous when paying the fare. In fact, he knew that the price for 30 kilometers should be around 100 yuan.
Highway tolls are extra.
The actual total fare might be around 110.
It is equivalent to giving the taxi driver a 90 yuan tip.
Li Quan was happy to do so.
In the future, when he has money, if he encounters some behavior that he thinks is kind or honest, or behavior that promotes positive energy, he will be very happy to give the other party some monetary rewards.
Looking at the people coming and going in the airport, Li Quan was confused.
He has never seen Exen, so who knows where Exen is?
Hurry up and call He Youlong to ask.
"Brother He, I was stuck in traffic on the way to the airport to pick him up, so I just arrived. Axen's phone message says it's turned off. Do you have a photo of Axen? Also, which flight did he take?"
Li Quan asked after dialing He Youlong's number.
"Okay, I'll send it to you via WeChat right away." He Youlong's efficiency is top-notch. Within two minutes after he hung up the phone, the photo was sent to him.
These are the photos of people that He Youlong obtained when he applied for visas and booked air tickets for Aixen and others.
There is also flight information for air tickets.
Aixen brought a total of twelve people this time. In other words, including Aixen, there were thirteen people in total.
Li Quan looked through all thirteen photos carefully.
Then I quickly ran into the airport terminal and checked the flight data on the electronic information screen in the lobby.
It showed that Axen's flight arrived on time at 9:25 am and was at Exit 3.
It's already past nine forty.
Nearly twenty minutes have passed, I hope Axen and the others have not been taken away yet.
Li Quan quickly ran to Exit 3 to look for someone.
Exit 3 was crowded with people, including some acquaintances of Li Quan.
Vice President Min was also here.
In addition to Vice President Min, Ma Wangcai, who had a grudge against Li Quan, was also present with Secretary Wang and two white-collar girls.
Li Quan still had some vague impression of the two white-collar girls.
When he went to Ma Wangcai's Hangu Group to sign an endorsement contract, these two white-collar girls were criticizing him from behind when he came out, saying that he was a relative and got into the company through the back door.
There was another group of people from Yuanyang Hospital. Among those people, Li Quan only knew Xu Tiangao and Sun Dasheng. He didn't know any of the others.
Standing next to Xu Tiangao was a tall beauty with a cold temperament, outstanding appearance and figure.
She wore a white suit, black high heels, an intellectual and elegant yellow leather strap watch, and light makeup. She looked very pleasing to the eye.
She stood there, a beautiful sight.
I didn't expect that there would be such a beautiful lady in Yuanyang Hospital. Unfortunately, this lady is a bit cold and her eyes are particularly arrogant.
It was like an ice beauty standing there.
It can only be viewed from a distance and not played with.
Sun Dasheng's eyes kept glancing at the icy beauty, and he almost drooled.
I wonder who that icy beauty is?
Looking to the other side, people from the Provincial People's Hospital also came over.
Although there are young women in the Provincial People's Hospital, they are nothing compared to the tall and slender ice beauty in the Ocean Hospital.
Li Quan's eyes moved and he found another group of people. The man in the lead had a big beer belly and looked very majestic. The people following behind him all looked like official figures.
"The officials from the Health Bureau are here too?"
When Li Quan saw the sign held by the person behind the man with a beer belly, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"It's quite interesting. The three top-level hospitals in the province all sent people to pick us up at the airport. The head of the Health Bureau also came in person to pick us up. Who is this big shot?"
Li Quan's gaze moved again and fell on the central circle surrounded by these groups of people.
There were more than a dozen blond men and women, looking at these groups of people with vigilant eyes.
The expressions on both sides are very interesting.
The dozen or so foreign friends treated these people as if they were tigers and wolves and were on guard. However, these people were all shameless, with flattering smiles, and tried to talk to the dozen or so foreign friends in obscene language.
It's a pity that no matter whether it was the leader of the Health Bureau who personally stepped in, or the well-known expert Xu Tiangao who personally took part in the battle, they even used the beauty trap.
It was of no use for the ice beauty to come forward and talk to him.
It may also be that aesthetic values ​​vary from country to country.
The Americans may not like the women that their own countrymen think are beautiful. In the eyes of these foreigners, the beauty of that iceberg beauty may only be 70 or 80 points.
Of course, it is also possible that foreign friends are afraid of being "trafficked", so they dare not trust anyone easily.
Just sit here quietly and wait for the real person to pick you up to arrive.
This group of foreign friends looked pitiful.
When Li Quan saw their faces clearly, his eyes suddenly lit up and a happy smile appeared on his face.
The originally tense god-level relaxed a lot.
Fortunately, we arrived in time and were not intercepted.
"Make way, please make way!"
Li Quan tried hard to squeeze in.
"Where did this beggar come from? Why are you squeezing here?"
Someone looked at Li Quan and found that he was wearing cheap clothes, which was in stark contrast to the passengers in the airport. He looked like a poor person at the bottom of society.
Those who called Li Quan a beggar were from Ma Wangcai's side.
"I'm here to pick someone up, please make way!" Li Quan suppressed his anger and shouted again.
Upon hearing this, the others all turned around to look at Li Quan.
"Hey, why is it this guy?"
Xu Tiangao's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect to see Li Quan everywhere.
This time, several major hospitals received exciting news through their own channels: the most famous blood disease research team in the United States came to China as a group.
How could the directors of major hospitals miss such a good opportunity?
As long as we invite these famous American expert teams to our hospital, even if it's just for a cup of tea or a visit, we can also publicize it to the outside world and immediately raise the popularity of our hospital to a higher level.
Therefore, early in the morning, all major hospitals sent specialists to pick up the patient at the airport.
No matter what method we use, we must bring the people back.
The leaders of the Health Bureau are also well-informed. With such a large group of important American experts visiting, the authorities must give them a good reception.
As a result, several groups of people sent people of high status to pick up the plane.
It can be considered a high-level reception.
Unfortunately, we arrived at the airport early and waited for the foreign experts to get off the plane. We wanted to take them back, but they were very alert and treated them like thieves.
These waves of people were very helpless.
I definitely can't bear to leave, I can only wait.
Everyone was scratching their heads and thinking of ideas.
When Xu Tiangao thought about how Huier Hospital cured several patients with cerebral hemorrhage who could not be cured by Yuanyang Hospital a while ago, his expression became a little unnatural.
And the real master who cured those extremely difficult cerebral hemorrhage patients was the young man in front of him who was dressed in cheap goods and had an unprepossessing appearance.
"Ah...this, isn't this Secretary Wang's relative?" The two female white-collar workers from Hangu Group couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing Li Quan's appearance clearly.
Secretary Wang was at the scene at the moment and looked at Li Quan when he heard this.
Then, his face twitched, and he shouted at the two female office workers, "If you don't know, don't talk nonsense. He and I are not related. I just wanted to ask him to be the spokesperson last time."
After saying this, Secretary Wang secretly looked at his boss's expression.
These two female white-collar workers didn't know that Ma Wangcai and Li Quan had a falling out, but Secretary Wang knew it very well.
If Ma Wangcai really thought that Li Quan was Secretary Wang's relative, misunderstanding would definitely arise.
This is also the reason why Secretary Wang hurriedly spoke up to clarify.
"It turns out that Secretary Wang personally invited this young man to the company last time in order to ask him to be the spokesperson! I thought he was a relative of his!" The two female white-collar workers stuck out their tongues and couldn't help but feel a little curious about Li Quan.
When Hangu Group hires someone to endorse their products, shouldn’t it invite top celebrities or well-known experts from top hospitals?
Why hire an ordinary-looking young man as the spokesperson?
They didn't dare to make any more noise, but just watched quietly.
When Ma Wangcai saw Li Quan, his eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of coldness flickering in them.
"Doctor Li, how are you?" Ma Wangcai took the initiative to greet him.
"Well, thanks to Mr. Ma, I am still living well for the time being. I guess Mr. Ma is also living a very good life recently. I can see the advertisements of Han Gu Group's weight loss drugs all over the streets. Tsk tsk, this is a hot business. I guess Mr. Ma can make hundreds of billions of dollars a year from it easily."
Li Quan didn't even look at the white-collar man who called him a beggar.
He directly confronted Ma Wangcai.
The male white-collar worker who had just scolded Li Quan only realized at this moment that the "beggar man" whom he looked down upon actually knew his boss.
And it sounds like the two of them are having a conversation with bosses of the same level.
But this young man doesn't look like a billionaire at all.
"Haha, Doctor Li's words are sweeter than honey. Then I will lend you my good words." Ma Wangcai is really shameless. He actually accepted it like this.
Li Quan sneered in his heart and thought, don't be anxious, wait until the weight-loss drugs he and He Youlong collaborated on are on the market. Ma Wangcai has high hopes for this and wants to make hundreds of billions from the drugs, so just keep them all for Ma Wangcai himself.
"Li Quan, why are you here when you don't work in the hospital?" Vice President Min had always had some conflicts with Li Quan.
Now seeing Li Quan openly absent from work and running to the airport, his face darkened.
Scold Li Quan in public.
"I have asked for leave from the hospital and will come to the airport to pick someone up," Li Quan explained.
"How can you take leave at will while at work? The person you are going to pick up is not a three-year-old child. Can't he go back by himself? Really." Vice President Min glared and continued to scold Li Quan majestically.
"Vice President Min, are you sure you don't need me to pick those people up at the airport?" A sarcastic expression appeared on Li Quan's lips.
He had already discovered that the people Vice President Min was going to pick up were Axen and others whom he had invited from abroad.
Aixen only recognizes Li Quan.
Only Li Quan could receive it. It would be useless even if Vice President Min knelt on the ground and served as a slave to Axen and others.
"You talk too much nonsense. What does the person you are going to pick up have to do with me? I order you to return to the hospital and work immediately. I will definitely deal with you again after you return."
Vice President Min said coldly.
This time he thought he had caught Li Quan's weakness, so he really showed no mercy.
"Haha, you still want to punish me? How about Vice President Min call President Tan right now and tell him that I took time off during work hours to do private work, and punish me severely."
Li Quan said with a smile.
"Don't be so playful in front of this dean. Do you think that I won't dare to punish you just because Dean Tan is protecting you?" Vice Dean Min took out his cell phone and took two photos of Li Quan.
This is collecting evidence.
There was no panic expression on Li Quan's face. Instead, he looked at Vice President Min with a mocking expression that made people want to slap him to death.
"Have you finished filming?" Li Quan asked with a smile. "Remember to keep the evidence. When you get back to the hospital, you must show it to punish me."
This time, everyone present understood Li Quan's identity.
It seems that this young man is a doctor at Wheeler Hospital.
But this young doctor was too arrogant. He even dared to go against the vice president.
The icy beauty couldn't help but look at Li Quan. She felt that this young man looked familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was.
"Wait." Vice President Min's face turned blue with anger.
Li Quan was too disrespectful to him. He shouted at him openly in front of so many people, showing his arrogance.
His authority as the vice president was completely destroyed.
Li Quan ignored Vice President Min and squeezed in, walking straight towards the thirteen foreign friends.
"Hey, Professor Axon! Lester Mitsu!"
Li Quan's spoken English is average, but he has no problem with simple communication.
At least I'm an undergraduate.
"You, you are Li?"
Professor Aixen actually knows some simple Chinese.
This surprised Li Quan very much.
And as soon as they met and greeted each other, Professor Aixen actually recognized him.
"So you can speak Chinese. Sorry, I was late because of a traffic jam when I came to pick you up. You're welcome!" Li Quan looked at all the foreign friends and welcomed them with a smile.
The foreign friends who came this time included both men and women, old and young.
"Li, your Chinese medicine skills are amazing! Can you show us a little bit?"
A blonde foreign female expert looked at Li Quan expectantly and asked.
Foreigners are very direct and not polite at all.
Li Quan prefers dealing with such people.
"OK!"
Li Quan smiled and nodded, confidently and gracefully.
Even if he was wearing shabby clothes, so what? The leaders around him were all dressed more glamorously than him. But what was the use?
Aixen and others ignored them.
On the contrary, as soon as Li Quan appeared, they started to have a friendly and enthusiastic conversation with him.
