Chapter 0565: The President's Invitation
The award ceremony finally ended with Liu Huaidong's impassioned speech as the curtain call, and everyone returned with a full load.
The comrades in China were personally awarded the Medal of Honor by the President of South Africa, and South Africa also took the opportunity to successfully bring the friendship between its country and China closer, the masses were no longer bothered by the new leaf virus, and the reporters of the major media also collected enough materials.
After the award ceremony, Liu Huaidong sat directly in the exclusive car of the South African president and was sent all the way to the local health department.
In the hall of the health department, tons and tons of medicinal materials have been stacked neatly in front of Liu Huaidong.
And what Liu Huaidong has to do is to stand directly in the pile of medicinal herbs and release his mana as if he didn't want money.
More than half an hour passed, and after every herb had indeed been nourished by his herbal mana, he finished his work and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The president and several officials of the South African authorities had quietly left ten minutes ago, after all, there was Liu Huaidong here, and they couldn't help much, and these people were the backbone of a country, and there was still a lot of official business waiting for them to deal with every day.
There were only a few people from the health department who remained, and they were ordered to listen to Liu Huaidong's dispatch at any time.
After thoroughly cultivating those medicinal materials with his own mana, Liu Huaidong asked for a room with someone, and went in alone to begin refining the Oriental Divine Pill wholeheartedly.
A batch of five minutes, a batch of 800 pills, and when the medicinal materials are not enough, people will send them in, just like that, it will take twelve hours to be busy.
Under Liu Huaidong's desperate work, Dongfang Shendan has 150,000 finished products, and the medicinal materials purchased by the South African health department have been exhausted, and the time has come to the middle of the night in the blink of an eye.
And tonight, it is the day when Liu Huaidong and others plan to return to China, after all, after solving the epidemic in South Africa, Wang Yiran has to rush back to report to the above, and there is really no reason to stay here anymore.
The people in the health department prepared a boxed lunch early, and when Liu Huaidong walked out of the room that he temporarily requisitioned as an alchemy room a little weakly, someone immediately handed the boxed lunch, and everyone bowed deeply to Liu Huaidong.
When everyone looked at Liu Huaidong, their faces showed undisguised admiration and admiration, after all, this is a hero who saved their country from fire and water, and for the sake of their South African people, they can do it for days without sleep, without a drop of water!
Yes, when they learned that their president had awarded Liu Huaidong a national medal symbolizing supreme honor, some people had a lot of complaints in their hearts.
But now, Liu Huaidong is a well-deserved hero in the hearts of each of them!
Although working for more than ten hours in a row, for a normal person, it is the intensity of work that their body cannot bear at all, but fortunately, Liu Huaidong is also a master of concentrating on the three grades now.
The physical and mental fatigue can be swept away with a little luck for a few weeks, and when he saw that these people from the health department were bowing to him from the bottom of their hearts, Liu Huaidong's heart was really warm.
While hurriedly eating a boxed lunch, Liu Huaidong turned his head to a few people around him and asked, "How many pills have I refined today?"
"Fifteen
Sixteen thousand eight hundred and seventy-two!"
One of them, a middle-aged man in a health department uniform, hurriedly stepped forward and said a number.
I don't know if I don't listen, after listening to this number, Rao is Liu Huaidong himself was almost so frightened that he choked on a mouthful of food.
"How many infected people are there in your country so far?" asked Liu Huaidong again.
The middle-aged man took out a report from the folder he carried with him for the first time, and responded to Liu Huaidong while comparing the report: "There are more than 53,600 confirmed patients and more than 79,800 suspected infected people. ”
"That's a total of 130,000 ...... Then the elixir I left behind should be enough. After Liu Huaidong learned the exact number of patients, he muttered a few words, and then went on to eat wildly to deal with the lunch box in his hand.
Seeing his vicissitudes of life, the staff of several health departments around him, both men and women, involuntarily turned red, and some people directly covered their mouths and began to sob.
The middle-aged man who answered Liu Huaidong's question also reached out and wiped the tears that came out of the corners of his eyes, and bowed deeply to Liu Huaidong again, "Thank you, thank you for your dedication to our South African people!"
Liu Huaidong raised his head, pursed his lips and smiled, chewing the food in his mouth and said vaguely: "This is not my credit alone, if it weren't for the help of the rest of our medical team, it is estimated that many patients would not be able to support me to develop a new drug." ”
"You are all heroes of the South African people, and you are all heroes of the whole world!" the middle-aged man nodded heavily, and replied sonorously.
Liu Huaidong smiled and stopped talking, and after gobbling up the lunch box in his hand, he left the local health bureau accompanied by several surrounding health department staff.
As soon as he was sent out of the gate, he heard a red flag sedan honking at himself not far away.
Liu Huaidong subconsciously turned his head to look, and just saw that Wang Yiran and Luo Yingying were both poking their heads out of the car window and waving to him.
At that moment, Liu Huaidong couldn't help grinning warmly in his heart, and after saying goodbye to several health department staff, he walked over and got into the Hongqi car.
"It's an honor, it's a great honor! How can I, Liu someone, let two beautiful women come to pick me up, and the leader himself serves as the driver!"
"Don't dare to be, you are a national hero personally recognized by the president of South Africa, and among our more than 20 people, you are the only one who has won the national medal, and it should be a little woman's honor to take a hero like you home. ”
Luo Yingying pursed her lips and giggled and teased Liu Huaidong.
Wang Yiran, who was sitting in front of the car and started the car, also nodded, expressing his deep opinion of this, "That's right, some people are now playing the role of a bridge of friendship between South Africa and China, and the international magazines of other Asian countries have published the deeds of this South African National Medal winner.
", I don't believe that without me, there will still be friendly development between our two countries?" Liu Huaidong was obviously not very interested in the soft knives of the two beauties, and rolled his eyes a little helplessly, "When will the plane take off, I will start to miss the motherland." ”
"Hehe, I think you miss your motherland
Somebody, right?"
Wang Yiran sneered, I don't know why, she found that she seemed to like to work against Liu Huaidong more and more, which was completely inconsistent with the cold and glamorous image she had erected in the hearts of those gentlemen in the imperial capital for more than 20 years......
After finding that he seemed to be a little messed up here in Liu Huaidong, Wang Yiran quickly came back to his senses, and his face couldn't help but become a little serious, "It's time for the plane to take off in half an hour, and we will pick you up and go directly to the airport, nothing will be left at the hotel, right?"
"No, the monks have no long things, they are poor and white. Liu Huaidong spread out his hands and made a bitter action, which immediately caused Luo Yingying and Wang Yiran to sneer.
The car did not return to the Hilton Hotel, but went directly to Cape Town Airport.
It didn't take long for Liu Huaidong to finish a cigarette when the Hongqi car was parked outside the terminal building at Cape Town Airport.
After handing over the car to the embassy people, Liu Huaidong and Wang Yiran got out of the car one after another.
Among the crowd were South Africans who mourned Liu Huaidong, embassy personnel and media reporters, as well as some dignitaries and officials of the South African authorities, and even the president of South Africa.
Seeing the South African president greet him, Liu Huaidong hurriedly stretched out his hands in flattery, "Mr. President, it's really hard for you to come to practice for us so late." ”
"Hehe, yes, after all, you and everyone in your country's medical team are our great benefactors in South Africa!"
The South African president held Liu Huaidong's hands and said with a sincere smile, as for Wang Yiran, he was socializing with the people from the local Chinese embassy, and others were also being interviewed by reporters from all walks of life.
Everyone was busy at this time of separation.
After the South African president simply said hello to Wang Yiran, he always grabbed Liu Huaidong's hand and didn't let go, quite a feeling that he wanted to pay a visit to Liu Huaidong as a New Year's friend.
"I said Dr. Liu, ......"
After a few words of greeting, the South African president suddenly became a little twisted, which made Liu Huaidong feel a little novel.
After all, the other party is the president of a country, and if you say something domineering, it is the king of a country, and such a person will have such a hesitant side.
After laughing a few times, Liu Huaidong couldn't help but blurt out: "Mr. President, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly." ”
"Then I'll make it clear. The South African president held Liu Huaidong's hands tightly, and after being entangled for a long time, he finally said what he had been holding in his heart these days.
"You...... Do you want to consider immigrating to our country? Rest assured, as long as you are willing to become a South African citizen, our State Department will immediately appoint you as the top leader of the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Health, and will give you $50 million a year to fund medical research.
Hearing this, Liu Huaidong couldn't help but be stunned.
Especially when he heard that the South African government was willing to allocate 50 million US dollars a year to him as a medical research fund, Liu Huaidong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
You know, the average annual GDP of the whole South Africa is only six or seven billion US dollars!
50 million is a huge amount of money, which is really not a small amount for South Africa!
