If they won, they would receive a high reward. The reward money would be funded by the government and a reputable company, and it would be very substantial, so the association's members were very concerned about this matter. A lot of people rushed over from the outside, all for the chance to participate in the summit.
Zhong Wentao would naturally not miss it, as for whether or not Zheng Yu wanted to go, had nothing to do with him.
He jumped off the bed, changed his clothes, and prepared to leave.
Zheng Yu stood up crookedly from the ground, unexpectedly wanting to go with him.
Looking at Zheng Yu's clothes, Zhong Wentao actually felt a bit of disdain.
Even when he was in the most miserable state, it hadn't reached this extent.
"Don't worry, I will leave with you. I won't let others think that I know you …"
This kind of self-awareness made Zhong Wentao feel that it was a little strange.
Zhong Wentao nodded his head slightly, he was satisfied, so he quickly went to the meeting hall, it was already packed full of people, Yang Hao was seated in the front, on stage, there was a famous television host hosting the program.
Sitting at the back, Zhong Wentao decided to observe the situation quietly.
The reward money was indeed attractive, but he wanted to find a disciple of the Vastheaven Sect to see if there was anyone who was using the Vastheaven Sect's secret technique to compete with them.
If he met such a person, he would have seen through it immediately and grasped the situation within the Vastheaven Sect.
Thus, no matter what, he had to participate in this summit.
Even if Yang Hao wanted to stop him, he had to get Yang Hao to agree.
As the principal of the First People's Hospital, Wang Zhanhai was also seated in the first row, to the left of Yang Hao. He was this time's guest of honor as well as a few other respected veterans had all come to the scene in order to choose the most suitable candidate to honor the Pine City.
This was not only related to Chinese Medical Association's face, it was also related to Pine City's face.
Thus, this time, all the Chinese medical doctors would work hard together. This also proved that this summit was a very powerful existence.
The meeting started and Zheng Yu came in from the outside.
There was an unpleasant odor on his body that attracted the attention of many people.
However, the venue was very big, the people at the front did not know what was happening, and only people near Zhong Wentao were able to sense it, causing a small disturbance.
After an entire night of eating and drinking, Zhong Wentao was already used to this smell, so he didn't feel anything special. He just sat at his original position and watched Yang Hao speak up on the stage seriously.
He was very curious as to how Yang Hao would punish him, and whether she would let him join his.
There were a lot of members in Chinese Medical Association, so only fifty of them would be participating in this summit. Twenty of them would be eliminated in the first round, while the remaining thirty would be participating in the next round.
There were a lot of associations participating in the competition, and it was almost like a sports competition.
No matter who was the first to be eliminated, the fifty spots would be famous in the Pine City. If one was lucky, they might even become famous in China.
Being able to enter the top 50 was already an affirmation of one's capability.
No matter what, he had to become one of the fifty people here.
Wang Zhanhai sat on a chair with a list of fifty people in his hands. He looked carefully and sure enough, Zhong Wentao's name was not there.
"Principal Wang, what do you think of this list?"
Yang Hao asked with a smile. He purposely said this to Wang Zhanhai in order to let Wang Zhanhai be the first to see the reaction of the list.
"That's right, they are all the elites of the Chinese Medical Association. This year's summit will definitely bring honor to the association."
Wang Zhanhai laughed and said, as though he was extremely satisfied, and did not notice that Zhong Wentao was on the list.
Yang Hao also smiled and nodded his head, he was sure that something bad was happening between Wang Zhanhai and himself, and that Wang Zhanhai was not speaking up for him.
Zhong Wentao's Qi had already run out, if he lost his shield,, what else could he be other than a poor brat?
"Eh, why isn't there any new members on there? I heard that those two aren't ordinary people, and that your Chinese Medical Association doesn't want any of it."
The older man opened his mouth, obviously paying close attention to the youngsters around them. He knew that Chinese Medical Association had joined two new members who had good qualifications.
This kind of opportunity was to train the new members and let the new members show their capabilities. It was indeed inappropriate for Chinese Medical Association to not allow the new members to join them.
"They are too young. They still need to go through some training."
Yang Hao said coldly, he was extremely calm.
No matter how these people tried to persuade him, he would not let Zhong Wentao fight with Zheng Yu.
Neither of them were his people, and unless he was crazy, he would never agree.
His ancestral treasure, the Thousand Years Snow Ginseng, was still in Zhong Wentao's hands. He still hadn't gotten it back, so how could he give Zhong Wentao any more chances?
"This …"
The old Chinese doctor spoke softly, his expression a little unsightly.
He spoke up for the development of the Chinese Medical Association. As a member, couldn't he participate?
Yang Hao's expression softened a little, and he knew that his tone just now was a little too much.
"This is also a matter of helplessness. They will naturally participate in the next summit."
These words were a form of comfort to the old Chinese medical doctor, but the old Chinese medical doctor's expression was not very good.
This respected old member was part of the old president's faction, and did not like Yang Hao's younger style. Now that the old president had stepped down, these old members were very unsatisfied with Yang Hao.
Fortunately, there were some people who objected during the last vote, otherwise, when Yang Hao became the President, these old members would not even come to the Chinese Medical Association to participate in any meetings.
Yang Hao was very clear about this point, so he did not care about these senior members at all.
They were all a bunch of old geezers. If they didn't stay at home and get disgusted by others, they would be taken care of by the heavens sooner or later.
In the back row, Zheng Yu finally sat together with Zhong Wentao.
"Wang Zhanhai is your backer, why didn't he ask you to go to the front?"
Zheng Yu gloated as he spoke, but Zhong Wentao did not mind.
He had not been in contact with Wang Zhanhai for a while, but he believed that with his relationship with Wang Zhanhai, he wouldn't need any fake contact to be able to continue.
Outsiders didn't know the situation between them, so he was very clear about it.
The Five Elements Needling Technique was what Wang Zhanhai wanted to learn the most.
He had only taught Wang Zhanhai a little bit of his skills, and in order to continue learning, Wang Zhanhai had no way of being estranged from him, unless there was someone else who knew how to use the Five Elements Needling Technique, which was impossible.
Zheng Yu was very unsatisfied with how Zhong Wentao only smiled without speaking a word.
However, he was currently too weak. Any additional words would consume quite a bit of his strength.
Zhong Wentao didn't have the slightest intention to explain, and only quietly looked at the situation in front of him.
He was waiting, waiting for an opportunity that Yang Hao had no choice but to let him go up on stage … This was luck and opportunity, he wasn't in a hurry.
As long as the summit didn't begin, there was a chance for someone else to come.
The whole meeting lasted two hours, and Zhong Wentao's expression was very calm from beginning to end, as if he was not at all bothered by this summit.
But Zheng Yu knew, this was just Zhong Wentao's concealment.
He had some understanding of Zhong Wentao, he could tell from this.
After the meeting ended, Zheng Yu's condition was slightly better, but his face was still thoroughly red and swollen, and riddled with injuries.
Those who met him all tried to avoid him as quickly as possible, as though they didn't want to provoke him.
Zhong Wentao was quite a distance away from Zheng Yu, so he didn't want others to think that they were very close.
"Wen Tao."
Wang Zhanhai's voice came from behind as he stopped in his tracks and nodded with a smile.
Wang Zhanhai walked up and said a few words to Zhong Wentao. Then, the two chatted as they left for the association's dining hall.
After ordering a few delicious dishes, Zhong Wentao was indeed a little hungry.
Wang Zhanhai watched him eat merrily, but he did not even touch the chopsticks.
"Dean, if you have something to say, just say it, don't look at me like that."
While eating, Zhong Wentao opened his mouth, as he was somewhat unaccustomed to it.
"You must attend this year's summit."
Wang Zhanhai requested seriously, everything had been planned.
When Zhong Wentao became famous in the Pine City and even in China, he would find himself an heir. No matter if Zhong Wentao was willing or not, he still hoped that Zhong Wentao could come to the First People's Hospital to work.
Even if he wasn't on duty, he still had to have a title.
This was a unanimous decision from the hospital's internal meeting. However, Zhong Wentao was still too young right now, and without the gold-plated summit, there would be no right and wrong way to enter the hospital.
Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have participated in this meeting.
He and Yang Hao hated each other so much that they naturally didn't want to have anything to do with each other.
"My name isn't on the list."
After eating a mouthful of the house, Zhong Wentao smiled and said.
Wang Zhanhai had definitely seen the list before, could it be that he wanted to help him now?
He had not even opened his mouth to make a request, but Wang Zhanhai had already taken the initiative?
"Don't worry about that, I can always let you go onstage. One out of fifty people will be interjecting you. It's nothing."
Even though the words were spoken very easily, Zhong Wentao merely smiled and did not mind.
He was a little worried that he wouldn't be able to get what Wang Zhanhai wanted, so how would he be able to repay the favor?
Zhong Wentao was noncommittal, he did not say yes but he did not reject either.
Wang Zhanhai muttered in his heart: Stinking brat, you managed to see through his thoughts again.
"Don't worry, I definitely won't harm you."
With that, Wang Zhanhai wiped his mouth with a tissue and got up to leave.
The conversation between the two was seen by Zhang Yu, who was eating lunch from afar. He was taken down by the camera using his phone, and passed the information to Yang Hao dutifully and dutifully.
With Zheng Yu's matter, Yang Hao did not trust him at all. He could only win back Yang Hao's trust bit by bit.
The people there had yet to contact him, so the plan was temporarily suspended. He had to peacefully return to the life of a secretary and try his best to do the best he could.
Sensing the gazes of someone looking at him, Zhong Wentao did not mind.
He did not accept Wang Zhanhai's suggestion, so it was fine even if he was discovered.
"He's not eating any of this, is he?"
As he was thinking, Zheng Yu had already appeared and sat at the place where Wang Zhanhai had just sat. He was eating Wang Zhanhai's leftovers in huge mouthfuls, and he didn't seem to mind at all.
"You …"
