As the two were speaking, the leader of the assessnt team, Dong Changhao, ca to visit. The Hua Nian Group had just set up a new Big Health Business Departnt, with Dong Changhao as the head of this newly established departnt. Previously, he was the assistant to Hua Nian Group's Vice President Duan Yuanhong. A graduate of a prestigious North Arican Ivy League school, at thirty-three, he could be considered a business elite. However, this elite had no experience in hospital managent.
Dong Changhao had just taken a tour of the Weishan Island Branch and also felt that there wasn't much to assess about this hospital; any evaluation would lead to a negative asset. The real value lay primarily in the land, which had suddenly appreciated due to policy changes.
Changxing proposed the idea of dical care for the elderly, planning to build a nursing hospital here. Dong Changhao found this idea very forward-thinking. However, as a partner, their purpose for visiting wasn't to offer praise but to be critical. The more flaws they found, the more advantageous Hua Nian Group would be in future equity negotiations.
On the way here, he learned through conversation about Tan Haiyan. Tan Haiyan, this woman, lacked ability and had just beco the secretary. Her understanding of Weishan Island Hospital was not as deep as his own, even as an outsider.
Rather, it was Xu Chunliang, the deputy dean, who caught his attention. The first ti he heard Xu Chunliang's na was because Xu had struck Hua Nian Group's Young Master Tang Tianyi.
This incident had a significant impact within Hua Nian. Tang Tianyi was the cherished son of Chairman Tang Jingwei, spoiled and indulged from a young age, and still reckless when grown up. Though he often caused trouble for Tang Jingwei, it was usually him bullying others. It was unheard of for him to be bullied; this ti, in Dongzhou, it was said that he was attacked, and eventually, the matter fizzled out.
Internally, Hua Nian found the incident unbelievable, thinking that Tang Tianyi must have encountered soone with an even stronger background. It was later discovered that the one who taught Tang Tianyi a lesson was a Changxing employee, without a significant background, just the grandson of a local old Chinese dicine doctor.
Zhao Feiyang's handling of this incident was also intriguing. Although he expressed sympathy to Tang Tianyi, he didn't take action against the aggressor. Dong Changhao and Duan Yuanhong discussed this privately, and from this event, it was evident that Zhao Feiyang had principles. Furthermore, he seed to have seen through their cards, revealing that Hua Nian Group had a stronger desire to cooperate than Changxing.
Chairman Tang Jingwei remained silent throughout the incident. His brother, Tang Jinglun, did make a few comnts but primarily to prevent this matter from affecting the company's stock price.
Yet everyone was aware that among Hua Nian Group's two listed companies, Hua Nian Real Estate had already beco an ST-listed company, and the other, Jiayue Departnt Store, was barely surviving. If they weren't deeply troubled, they wouldn't be setting up anew and expanding into the big health industry.
Dong Changhao even believed that the stabbing incident involving Tang Tianyi in Dongzhou had a significant impact. It was through this event that Zhao Feiyang saw through their cards, recognizing their urgency to cooperate. From then on, Zhao Feiyang beca increasingly assertive in negotiations.
Tan Haiyan introduced the two people, and Xu Chunliang smiled and extended his hand to Dong Changhao, "Hello, Mr. Dong."
With a smile on his face, Dong Changhao shook Xu Chunliang's hand and said, "I've long heard of you, Dean Xu."
Xu Chunliang said, "Good news travels fast and bad news even faster. Mr. Dong, have you heard of my incident of hitting soone?"
Dong Changhao was taken aback, never expecting him to ntion it so directly. Wasn't the normal approach to avoid it?
Quick to adapt, Dong Changhao laughed, "So it was you who had the misunderstanding with Young Master Tang. It truly is like the great flood washing over the Dragon King Temple, family not recognizing family."
Xu Chunliang let go of Dong Changhao's hand and said, "Mr. Dong, you're insulting . Soone like Tang Tianyi, a pampered brat, is garbage. We're not family."
Tan Haiyan was dumbfounded. She had only heard that Xu Chunliang was difficult, but now she was witnessing it firsthand. After all, Dong Changhao was a guest, and directly insulting the boss's son in front of him, was that really appropriate?
Dong Changhao laughed, "Dean Xu, you're truly straightforward."
Xu Chunliang smiled, "I have a bad temper, and I'm very clear in my likes and dislikes. If I like soone, I'll be extrely good to them. If soone offends , I'll make them pay tenfold. Mr. Dong, it's not about you, have a seat."
Tan Haiyan finally snapped back to reality and invited Dong Changhao to sit. The atmosphere was too awkward; they said Xu Chunliang was good at conversation, but he had just ended this one abruptly.
Tan Haiyan underestimated Dong Changhao's strategic thinking.
Dong Changhao didn't feel awkward at all; he simply found Xu Chunliang intriguing. This guy was likely a master of open tactics, putting issues on the table from the beginning to attempt to overshadow him. The assessnt team had just arrived, and he was already trying to pull a power move. Unfortunately, you're not Zhao Feiyang, and you are not in the sa league as .
Dong Changhao accepted the Junmin Spring mineral water Xu Chunliang offered, thanked him, and thought to himself, with the weather so chilly, shouldn't you offer sothing warm? He had stomach issues, a problem that developed during his overseas studies. The doctor specifically advised him to avoid cold foods and drinks. Dong Changhao took the mineral water and placed it on the coffee table. Xu Chunliang had no intention of making him tea.
The primary reason Dong Changhao ca to see Xu Chunliang was to discuss work. He hoped that Xu Chunliang could coordinate with the branch's finance and equipnt departnts to support their assessnt work. Following the typical approach from Changxing, they planned to stay on Weishan Island for a week, arranging for mbers of the assessnt team to be stationed in the finance and equipnt departnts, including the billing office. They wanted to gain a detailed understanding of the hospital's financial situation.
Xu Chunliang didn't create any artificial obstacles. He called in the Chief Financial Officer, Li Jinxia, and asked her to cooperate with the inspection team as much as possible without violating principles. As for the equipnt departnt, the branch hospital doesn't have this departnt.
Out of courtesy, Xu Chunliang still exchanged pleasantries with Dong Changhao and proactively offered to host a welco dinner for them in the evening. Dong Changhao politely declined, stating they were there for work, emphasizing that private and public units have different working styles.
Dong Changhao stated that in the following week, their inspection team will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, trying not to disrupt the normal operations of the hospital, and ensuring that the branch hospital continues to follow the previous work procedures.
After seeing off Dong Changhao, Xu Chunliang called Zhang Haitao over. He felt that the people from Huayuan Group had no good intentions, and instructed Zhang Haitao to pay attention to the inspection team's movents during this period and report any anomalies to him promptly.
He also had a word with Li Jinxia. So accounts could be shown to them, so could not. If any issues arose, she would personally bear the responsibility.
Upon hearing this, Li Jinxia imdiately understood his intention. She didn't know which ones should be shown and which should not, so to avoid taking responsibility, she simply chose not to show any.
Xu Chunliang initially planned to invite i Ru Xue to dinner, but heard that she was to entertain the inspection team from the Da Heng Group that evening. Xu Chunliang thought to himself that the Da Heng Group seed very determined to secure the project on Weishan Island, having co at least three tis that he knew of.
i Ru Xue asked if the property transfer had been completed. Xu Chunliang told her he planned to go to the county town to handle it the next day.
i Ru Xue happened to have a eting in the county the next day, so she offered to go with him, considering Xu Chunliang might not be familiar with the departnts. She could act as a free guide for him.
i Ru Xue was actually worried that Xu Chunliang might overthink. She really couldn't free herself from work that night and didn't an to refuse him. Inviting him to go together the next day was sowhat of a compensation gesture.
Xu Chunliang understood this well. Town Mayor i was indeed considerate. Generally speaking, when a girl consciously considers your feelings, it at least proves she has a favorable impression of you.
The two agreed on a departure ti, and Xu Chunliang hung up the phone contentedly.
In the afternoon, Wang Xiaofeng and Cao Jing ca to see him. They were the younger generation of Changxing and had heard about the public-to-private reform pilot project in Changxing. By their generation, they hadn't even caught up with personnel agency work; they were all on regular labor contracts. Nonetheless, they were very concerned about Changxing's future reforms.
Both Wang Xiaofeng and his wife worked in Changxing, and if Changxing were indeed to transition from public to private as rumored, they would have to consider the future, such as one of them transferring away, which was a form of insurance. Not putting all their eggs in one basket, in case Changxing's reform was unsuccessful, they would at least still have a steady inco for security.
Cao Jing also wanted to leave Changxing. Ever since the misdiagnosis incident, she had been reassigned to the Weishan Island Branch, and harbored considerable resentnt towards Changxing. However, unlike Wang Xiaofeng, the ultrasound field was now in high demand, with many private hospitals in need, offering much better pay than Changxing. Since Changxing was also turning private, she might as well prepare earlier.
Both of them wanted to get so inside information from Xu Chunliang. He told them that nothing was finalized yet and that the cooperation between Changxing and the Huayuan Group was just a proposal. As long as there wasn't a signed contract, there was still uncertainty.
Cao Jing said, "There's no uncertainty; they've already co to assess. Once the assessnt is over, we'll be sold off."
Wang Xiaofeng nodded in agreent.
Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "It's impossible. The transition from public to private isn't that simple. You don't have to worry, and being anxious won't help. There are far more people in the hospital worried than you, and many more capable than you. If you two have better opportunities, I won't stop you, but if you don't have any, you don't need to rush to make a decision. Anyway, when the sky falls, there are taller ones holding it up, it's not your concern."
Wang Xiaofeng felt he was right and decided to observe the situation first.
Cao Jing said, "Although you say that, it's always good to prepare early. I heard that many doctors in our hospital are finding connections to transfer, and Fu Juan from the cardiology departnt has already gone to the Central Hospital."
Wang Xiaofeng said, "Her uncle is the dean at the Central Hospital. She ca to Changxing initially to avoid suspicion. We can't compare."
Both of them were aware that they couldn't compare to Xu Chunliang. Who's ever heard of soone getting a position in a top-tier comprehensive hospital with just a high school diploma, and within a few months, becoming the deputy dean of the Weishan Lake Branch, becoming their leader? Wang Xiaofeng held a master's degree, and Cao Jing had studied five years of undergraduate imaging. Compared to Xu Chunliang, they felt their university education was for nothing.
