Chapter 399: Let's Go Out and Talk
"Don't!"
When He Chang saw the volume he had looked at a few days earlier surrounded by flames, he let out a shout.
He then lunged forward.
Fortunately, he was immediately held back by his companion.
"These are ancestral treasures; they must not be burned!"
He Chang knelt on the ground, face flushed with anger, and shouted.
The camera was aimed at He Lao...
Mr. Lü and Zhongcun Yejun were already stunned.
Especially the surnamed Lü, who was so frightened he lost his wits.
Of course, besides him, several others present were also like that.
They suddenly realized they had fallen into a trap.
"Lin Feng, you are Guo Jia's culprit!"
Mr. Lü pointed at Lin Feng and shouted.
This was his final struggle.
Unfortunately, the reporters on site did not cooperate, and the cameras were not aimed at him.
Lin Feng said calmly: "I've said it before, these are fake! I'm burning a pile of waste paper at home—is that illegal?"
Mr. Lü had no reply.
Lin Feng turned and left.
Everything that followed had already been arranged.
That night, the matter of burning the great classic appeared in the news.
Of course, the Lin Feng appearing on camera was mosaicked.
Lin Feng also accepted an interview.
The reporter asked: "Mr. Mu (pseudonym), how did you obtain this set of the Yongle Dadian?"
"The mosaicked Lin Feng said: 'This set of books is actually something I obtained overseas, spending over 5 billion US dollars, from a person of Deguo nationality.'"
"Reporter: 'Do you think it's genuine?'"
"Lin Feng: 'I'm not sure either, since no experts have authenticated it. However, several experts in the Chinese medicine field examined the medical sections and found many lost medical techniques. For example, there is Willow Branch Bone Setting, Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles, and methods for treating cancer, etc.'"
"Reporter: 'It's so precious; why would you burn it?'"
"Lin Feng: 'There's no choice; after the news spread, many people come knocking every day. The old Chinese medicine practitioners are fine—I welcome them, hoping they can master more lost medical techniques. But some people…… let me be blunt: they just want to steal, just like a century ago, to take our things and claim them as their own.'"
"What upsets me most is that some of these thieves even openly help them; the waters run deep here, and I won't divulge it."
"Lin Feng's interview video did not appear in the news because it was sensitive."
"But it did appear on Great Flag Media's video site 'Xiaoqi Video'."
"Related news reports also appeared there in succession."
"With Great Flag Media's promotional power, after going all out, within just a dozen hours, everyone knew about it."
"For a time, the online hot searches were all about this incident and the term 'Yongle Dadian'."
"After the incident had fermented for several days,"
"Mr. Lü and his gang received serious punishment."
"The disheartened Zhongcun Yejun returned to his country."
"The 25th."
"Lin Feng's study was full of people."
"Shu Jingya, He Chang, Huang Lian……"
"They all had their heads down, looking at the volumes of the Yongle Dadian."
"He Lao only found out the next day that Lin Feng had burned a fake."
"Then came an awkward moment."
"Because he actually ended up on the news."
"His pained expression was even better than that of a Guo Jia–level actor."
"Lin Feng walked in, smiling, and said: 'Everyone, please pause for a moment; I have something to discuss with you.'"
"An old man gave a wry smile and said: 'Lin Lao Di, go ahead and speak! But please don't torment us old folks anymore—our old arms and legs can't take your torment.'"
"Lin Feng chuckled and said: 'Everyone knows my purpose in doing this: first, to deter those flies; second, to hype things up. Essentially, I'm still a businessman, thinking about how to make money.'"
"Now the heat is up; tomorrow the Yongle Dadian will be officially released, issued in volume form, with each volume priced at about 200 units, and the deluxe set will be more expensive……"
"Alright! \".."
"Before he finished speaking, He Lao frowned and said: 'You'd better talk about what we're interested in!'"
"Lin Feng gave a hehe laugh and said: 'Everyone here is a luminary in the Chinese medicine field; I'd like to ask you all to join forces and compile a complete Chinese medicine teaching system, evaluation system, medical system, pharmaceutical system……'"
"Right! Let's set up an organization right here! How about calling it the Xinghua Medical Association?"
"Once the theory is ready, I will invest in building at least ten Chinese medicine universities and a thousand Chinese medicine hospitals, with total investment no less than 200 billion!"
"After Lin Feng finished speaking, everyone present widened their eyes."
"200 billion—this is no small sum."
"But soon, He Lao and the others understood Lin Feng's idea."
"Western medicine's medical system, with foreign authority."
"Lin Feng is going to spend a large sum of money to establish a complete Chinese medicine system."
"If it's actually built, the profits won't be just 200 billion!"
What a big appetite!
But from another angle, this is also a great undertaking that benefits the country and the people.
For such an investment, no need to guess—Guo Jia will fully support it.
Seeing no one speak, Lin Feng said in a tempting tone: "Everyone, the textbooks you write will be read by countless students, your photos will be hung on university walls, and your names will go down in history..."
Huang Lian sighed, "All right! Stop talking—I'm getting numb all over. As long as you're willing to spend the money, we'll take on this task without hesitation!"
Lin Feng laughed, "Don't worry, everyone! In the future, public opinion won't be dominated by Western medicine; Great Flag Media will cooperate with us, and when you have free time you can go on shows to popularize Chinese medicine and health knowledge for the public."
Lin Feng finished speaking and waved his hand.
Yun Luan walked over and bowed to Elder He and the others, saying, "Seniors, I will take charge of the matter Mr. Lin entrusted; please look after me!"
The money left behind by Yun Shen is entirely in Yun Luan's hands.
After signing an investment agreement with Guo Yanru, there's still a large portion of the money left with nowhere to spend.
During this period, Lin Feng discovered that Yun Luan not only has management talent but is also extremely meticulous, making her well suited for this work.
Lin Feng turned and left.
Afterwards, there are still many things to do.
The task entrusted to Yun Luan also cannot be completed in just a day or two.
It will take at least ten years, possibly even longer.
Bai Ying has arrived.
Although the Sihe Courtyard is large, it's not suitable for discussing matters.
Previously, not living in the Sihe Courtyard, I could study acupuncture knowledge every day.
Now there are too many people.
At home, Liu Cangyun, Yang Caiwei, and Yun Luan—three women—regularly reside.
On weekends, the clever Song Jiaren will run around everywhere in the courtyard.
Han Xiang occasionally comes back for a visit.
Shu Jingya also lives here now.
In the evening, everyone sits together to eat, and afterward there's always an awkward atmosphere.
Shall we flip the cards?
That's too disrespectful.
So during this period, Lin Feng is no different from a monk living in the mountains.
Lin Feng got into Bai Ying's black SUV, saying, "Let's go out and talk!"
