11. Thousand Waves (I)
The acupuncture sealing technique is not a great secret technique, and Zhou Xing and Ma Ba can easily master it with a little practice
It's just that Mr. Snell is in a special situation, and with his fragile physique, he can't withstand the real acupoint sealing technique, so he can only use a workaround technique like a golden needle to close the acupoint
What Zhu Tong is doing now is to hang a chart on the veins of the human body and teach the golden needle closure technique to Zhou Xing and Ma Ba
Of course, they didn't quite understand Zhu Tong's intentions, they could be fine, why did they force Snell to sleep? Zhu Tong didn't explain, and they didn't want to ask, the boss's approach always made sense, especially Ma Ba, who had some ideas about the beautiful Mrs. Snell
Zhou Xing and Ma Ba left, Zhu Tong went to the wine cabinet and poured a glass of red wine for Mrs. Snell, held a glass of white wine himself, and raised his glass: "Madam, we should make a toast I think, we have found the best way to rescue Mr. Snell, the discussion just now is fruitful"
"It's really happy good news, I always thought that 'Divine Doctor Li Xiang' is the best" Mrs. Snell vaguely felt that something was not right, and what "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" said did not seem to be true
She couldn't understand Chinese, but the discussion just now ...... Is there a discussion? It seems that most of the time it is "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" who is talking alone, and the other three people are listening even if there is a speech, but it is like asking for advice, not expressing their own opinions
However, Mrs. Snell decided to keep her doubts to herself and listen to what Zhu Tong had to say next
Zhu Tong drank half a glass of wine and said: "Since Mr. Snell was admitted to Wanghai Hospital, the hospital has not received a penny, you know, maintaining the treatment of Mr. Snell is an expensive and risky work, based on the trust in Mr. Snell, we have not made any requests related to this before, but Mr. Snell is in trouble now, and the next rescue will also cost a lot of money, I want to discuss the cost with Mrs.
"How much does it cost? Is $500,000 OK? "Mr. Snell's face was slightly red, and he looked embarrassed;" I mean, I can only come up with half a million dollars right now, and Mr. Snell's assets have been taken care of by Anthony, and I can't pay more without his cooperation."
Zhu Tong nodded, expressed his understanding and frowned for a moment, and said: "500,000 US dollars should be Madame's private money, Madame's affection for Mr. Snell is very touching, but ......" Zhu Tong shook his head and made a very embarrassed look; "Those were more than enough to pay the bills, but not for the salvage work that was about to take place...... Not enough, we must use some very precious drugs, such as bezoar, which Mr. Snell needs to calm the mind and stop spasms, enhance the contractility of the myocardium, and speed up blood circulation; For example, ginseng can replenish Mr. Snell's Yuanyang, and Mr. Snell needs one or more 100-year-old wild ginseng, and the current market price is far more than 100,000 US dollars."
"But now I can come up with half a million dollars of my trust fund, but ......" As the spouse of a billionaire, Mrs. Snell has never been forced into such an embarrassing position because of money, and she removes a diamond ring from her finger: "This is a gift from Mr. Snell to celebrate our third wedding anniversary, and the price at that time was three million three million dollars"
Zhu Tong stared at the diamond ring, and a trace of laughter appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Madam, that is completely unacceptable, if Mr. Snell knows what you are going to do now, he will definitely blame us for being unkind, rest assured, we are very confident in Mr. Snell's ability to pay, and the cost of rescue will be paid by the hospital for the time being, but Madam, you should let the outside world know your embarrassing situation"
Just then Shaw came in to inform him that Lord Hamilton had returned, and that he was outside the door, asking to join in the discussion of Mr. Snell's condition
At 11 a.m. on September 10, Mrs. Snell, accompanied by Lord Hamilton, held an urgent press conference and announced a piece of news that shocked the whole world: in order to pay for Mr. Snell's huge medical expenses, she decided to auction off a precious souvenir of her third wedding anniversary with Mr. Snell, a diamond ring from a top jewelry designer
Lord Hamilton was then interviewed by several media reporters in the lobby of Wanghai Hospital, and he regretted that he had offered to temporarily buy the ring for three million euros to help Mrs. Snell through this "short and embarrassing" period, but Mrs. Snell refused Lord Hamilton said that Mrs. Snell believed that Mr. Snell had never owed any person or organization, and that there was a minor technical problem in communication with Snell Asset Management. I believe that it will be properly resolved soon
Although only two media attended the press conference, namely Miss Sako Kawakami from Japan and Miss Anna from a channel of Shanghai TV, this news still occupied the headlines of the world's major media for the first time
Anthony got the news at 11:15 a.m. when he was preparing to attend a luncheon at the European and American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai
The moment he saw this, Mr. Anthony, who was sitting in the most luxurious presidential suite of the Jin Jiang Hotel, was stunned, and he did not receive any request for payment from Wanghai Hospital or Mr. Snell, and no one told him that Wanghai Hospital demanded the reimbursement of Mrs. Snell's medical expenses
"Conspiracy, it's all a conspiracy" Anthony roared and rushed out to the door, only to be hugged by two gentlemen beside him, who were Anthony's hired lawyers, and his current assistant and adviser
"There are reporters outside, there are many reporters coming to Mr. Anthony, you can't show up now, you can't explain, no one will listen to any explanation from you, all the questions they ask are traps, any answer you give will only make your image worse" A lawyer said in horror: "Oh my God, Anthony, I reminded you that you can't use financial control as a means of restraining Mrs. Snell, this is the woman's revenge, she wants to take this opportunity to destroy you, No one can speak for you to get rid of Mr. Snell completely, unless Mr. Snell is God, he is in Wanghai Hospital, and it is he Anthony who needs the money, what have you done? Anthony, you should have paid a bond to Wanghai Hospital before Mr. Snell arrived, tell me, did the money give them? ”
"He didn't sign the agreement you had prepared," Anthony sat down on the heavy carpet
"So......" The two lawyers looked at each other, no need to ask, of course the money was not paid, otherwise Anthony would not be so embarrassed
Damn "Miracle Doctor Li Xiang", he had already thought about it, and from the moment he refused to sign that agreement, the wheels of conspiracy had already begun to turn
At that time, Anthony was carrying a cash check for $1 million in his arms, and as long as "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" agreed to sign it, he would immediately hand the check to Zhu Tong as Mr. Snell's treatment deposit
But until now, the million-dollar check is still in Anthony's pocket
Anthony regretted that if he had listened to Senator Lehman's advice and chose to cooperate with the hateful "miracle doctor Li Xiang", why would he have been so miserable
Now, let alone trying to do anything else, how to live in the future is a problem, even if Mr. Snell suddenly wakes up, he will not listen to his explanation, as a housekeeper who has followed Mr. Snell for many years, Anthony has a very clear understanding of his habits of thinking and the way of dealing with problems
Mr. Snell's most common remark in the face of the anger or pleading of the opponent he defeated is: the loser has no right to explain, and failure itself is the best explanation that you are not good enough to expose your weaknesses to others; Even if I don't take advantage of it, someone will take advantage of it
He messed things up, let the other party seize the fatal excuse, and now it is useless to send money to Wanghai Hospital immediately, Mr. Snell does not like losers, this matter is a major damage to his personal reputation and the image of Snell Asset Management Company, especially in a critical period when his life and death are at stake, Anthony made an unforgivable mistake
According to Mr. Snell's habit, even if Zhu Tong doesn't seize this opportunity to make a fuss, others will not let him go after they know about it
At 11:30 a.m., Robert. Snell, accompanied by two lawyers, appeared on the television screen
He held a press conference not far from Anthony and said that he would immediately remit the first million dollars of medical expenses for his father to Wanghai Hospital. Mr. Snell can get the best treatment, Robert said that Anthony should be responsible for all this, he has always been the housekeeper by his father's side, and all the expenses related to treatment are his responsibility, but during the critical period when Shanghai was hit by a typhoon and his father's life was being tested, Anthony left Wanghai Hospital and lived in the presidential suite of the Jin Jiang Hotel, which was an unforgivable dereliction of duty, and Anthony betrayed his father's trust
"This fool, brute, does he know what he's doing? He got on the 'Divine Doctor Li Xiang' when you get rid of me, what's in it good for you" Anthony was about to be and spat at Robert on the screen
Robert. While Snell's press conference was underway, a sensational text appeared at the bottom of the screen: Executive Director of the Board of Directors of Snell Asset Management, another heavyweight of the Snell family, and Mr. Snell's cousin, Van Gaast, the president of the oil company. Mr. Snell held a press conference in London, saying that the Snell family was in good financial condition and that there were no problems, and hoped that investors would give him 24 hours to buy stocks and securities related to Snell Asset Management, including oil companies
Van Gaast. Mr. Snell said that he had asked the board to initiate an investigation into the matter, and that he would personally fly to Shanghai to meet with Mr. and Mrs. Snell before suggesting that the board urgently discuss a temporary motion by telephone to suspend all rights of Mr. Anthony, a member of the supervisory board of Snell Asset Management
The temperature in the presidential suite was strictly controlled within the range required by the guests, and Anthony pulled off his tie and unbuttoned his shirt: his well-dressed suit was soaked with sweat
The two lawyers were gone, and everyone could see that Anthony had finished the luncheon of the European and American Chamber of Commerce, which he had barely attended, and now he had become an unattainable existence, so far away that it seemed to be an existence in another world, and it had nothing to do with people like him
Over the years, Anthony has really offended many people, he is not a member of the Snell family, as long as he falls without the capital to fall, there is no possibility of getting up, even if Mr. Snell still trusts him, Anthony will not be able to stand up
He suddenly felt that he not only should not offend the "miracle doctor Li Xiang", but that he had been wrong from the moment he served as the supervisory committee member of Snell Asset Management Company, at that time, he was still grateful to Mr. Snell for his trust in him, and now that he thinks about it, he is just being used by the cunning old fox to the bone and becoming a dog in his hand, as long as Mr. Snell gives a hint, he will not hesitate to pounce on it and bite a few bites; Among them is Van Gaast. Mr. Snell
What Anthony did certainly established Mr. Snell's unquestionable position of authority, and also made him a character that everyone feared Now, "Doctor Li Xiang" kicked the first kick, and former enemies such as Robert and Van Gaast immediately jumped out
"Jingle Bell ......" Anthony was awakened by the landline ringing in the presidential suite, and he raised the microphone weakly and asked, "I'm Anthony, which one, may I ask?" ”
"Honey, I'm Smith and do I have time? I thought, we should find a quiet place to have a drink."
"Smith, don't try to come and see me, don't think you're going to get away with it, as long as Mr. Snell wakes up, they'll know I'm good," Anthony forced himself to hold on
"Of course I believe that you Anthony is the most trusted person of Mr. Snell, so I will call Anthony at this time, there is a small question, even if Mr. Snell wakes up, the first thing he will see will only be Mrs. Snell and Lord Hamilton, or Van Gast or Robert Do you think, Mr. Snell will give you a chance to explain? Or could you put it this way, do you still have a chance to meet Mr. Snell? Smith teased in a flirtatious tone; Forget Anthony, it's not interesting to hold on, if I were you, move out of that luxurious presidential suite now, leave the Jin Jiang Hotel, find a small hotel to stay, and wait for the opportunity"
"Wait, Mr. Smith, do you think I still have a chance?" Anthony seemed to have caught something, and Smith was clearly hinting that he still had a chance to meet Mr. Snell
"Who knows? Anthony, someone asked me to tell you a word: if you think about it, you can find me, you have my mobile phone number, if you haven't lost it."
"Tell me, Mr. Smith, and I'll think about it," Anthony asked hurriedly
"I've already told you, it's just those words: If you think about it, you can find me Anthony, I don't think you were dazed by something that happened suddenly and became a fool?"
"If you think about it, you can find me" Anthony muttered twice, asking, "Tell me Smith, is it 'Divine Doctor Li Xiang'?" ”
"Anthony, your idea is so weird, hehe, it's also very creative," Smith laughed twice and hung up
"It must be him, it must be that nasty fellow," Anthony yelled into the microphone, though there was only a beep inside
Got it thought about? What was thought about? What to consider? Anthony fell into deep thought
For a long time, he stood up and silently packed up his things, no matter what, this presidential suite was uninhabitable, he was really dizzy by the "miracle doctor Li Xiang" at that time, how could he live in such a luxurious room?
When checking out, Anthony was hit by his own stupidity again, and the room money had already been paid, which was obviously another pit that had been dug a long time ago, and the family paid cash, but it was him who moved in
In this way, surrounded by a group of reporters, Anthony walked out of the Jinjiang Hotel without saying a word and with a grim face with a simple luggage, jumped into a taxi and left
