Chapter 271 I Am the Successor of Socialism!
"If you want to refuse me, just say it straight. Stop trying to fool me with such ridiculous claims!"
"Fifty million? Why don't you just tell me it's 'five little targets'?" Dai Zhengguo's expression stiffened for a few seconds before his eyes squeezed together menacingly.
The excuse Gu Yu came up with was really too far-fetched!
Did he really think he, an old man, was a fool that could be easily deceived?
Fifty million! That was half a "little target"! How old was Gu Yu to have the wealth to prop up such a big company?
He didn't need to use his brain to know that it was impossible.
Unless Gu Yu's father was Wang Moulin, if that were the case, then even five billion would not make Dai Zhengguo have the slightest doubt.
Stay updated with empire
But Gu Yu's surname was Gu, not Wang!
He looked at Gu Yu with eyes filled with resentment and scrutiny, "If you don't want to come to the Affiliated Hospital, just tell me! I, Old Dai, am not some man-eating tiger. I won't make things difficult for you!"
Dai Zhengguo was somewhat angry in his heart. He felt that Gu Yu was a bit dishonest.
Such a habit of talking big was not good at all!
Seeing Dai Zhengguo's appearance as if he was about to burst with anger, Gu Yu knew that the man didn't believe what he said.
And rightfully so, no normal person would.
If it weren't for the system backing him, he wouldn't believe it either.
But this was the truth!
"Old Dai, I'm really not fooling you. Everything I've said is true. It's just that my company is currently in a development phase, and I really can't spare the time to stay at the Affiliated Hospital," Gu Yu said in a gentle and appeasing tone.
"I know you want me to improve my medical skills, but sometimes things don't go as one wishes, you know!"
Gu Yu tried to soothe Dai Zhengguo in a calm and collected manner.
Dai Zhengguo looked at him skeptically. Though he was still quite angry, he could sense that Gu Yu's tone was serious and didn't seem like he was talking nonsense.
But still, who would believe that a twenty-one-year-old owned a company with fifty million in assets?
Even if Gu Yu spoke earnestly, Dai Zhengguo wasn't very convinced.
"You really have the capability to run such a big company?"
Despite his disbelief, Dai Zhengguo still took the initiative to ask.
Since Gu Yu dared to say so, then he had to present some evidence!
"What's the name of your company? Where is it located?" Dai Zhengguo thought for a moment and then added two more questions.
Good! If what Gu Yu said was true, then the company must have a name and an address, right?
A company with assets of fifty million might not be very large in Modu, but if it were in Haidong, it should have a notable reputation.
Dai Zhengguo, who had treated many of the big business owners in Haidong District, knew a thing or two about large companies there.
"My company is called Ideal Paradise Network Technology Company, and our office is currently located in Haidong University Innovation and Entrepreneurship Park!"
"If you don't believe me, I'm actually on my way back to the company now, would you like me to take you to see?"
Upon hearing Dai Zhengguo's questions, Gu Yu responded straightaway.
If it was someone else, he might have hesitated a bit before naming his company.
But since it was Dai Zhengguo who was asking, he spoke openly and without reservation.
"Ideal Paradise...? Haidong University Innovation and Entrepreneurship Park?" Dai Zhengguo mused, his brows furrowed, as if trying to recall whether he had ever come into contact with anyone from this company.
However, after thinking it over, he couldn't find this company's name in his memory at all.
So this company might be very recent.
But could a newly operating company really have fifty million in assets?
Dai Zhengguo remained highly skeptical.
But the next second, Gu Yu handed over his mobile phone to him. The screen showed a business inquiry interface.
Legal representative Gu Yu, Chairman Gu Yu, actual controlling person Gu Yu, 100% shareholding, registered capital fifty million, paid-in capital fifty million!
Seeing the information displayed on the app, Dai Zhengguo's eyes widened as he grabbed the phone from Gu Yu's hand.
He read through the entire business credentials over and over again, even exiting and re-entering the app to make sure it wasn't a fake business inquiry tool.
No matter how he checked or looked at it, the fact remained that this was real business information!
Fifty million! Gu Yu was the chairman! 100% shareholding!
For the first time, Dai Zhengguo felt his mind was overwhelmed.
```
It seems he underrated Gu Yu's score!
If he previously rated Gu Yu a nine, he now felt that even a perfect ten was not enough—it should be ninety-nine!
As for why it was missing one point, that was to prevent Gu Yu from becoming arrogant.
Dai Zhengguo felt like he had lived more than half his life, and suddenly he found the world somewhat incomprehensible.
Could it really be that someone excelled in every aspect?
Rich, good-looking, and capable, and damn good at everything to boot!
A genius? This was a monster!
He didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings.
A long-term distinguished contract with Haidong University Affiliated Hospital?
A salary of five hundred thousand a year?
Please, that was just one percent of Gu Yu's company's revenue!
No wonder Gu Yu disdained working at the Affiliated Hospital, he had the capital!
"Ah, I underestimated your strength."
"It seems this long-term invitation contract is no longer necessary."
Dai Zhengguo fell silent for a while, then silently took out the contract from the inside pocket ready to tear it up and throw it into the trash can.
Just as Old Dai was about to tear up the contract, Gu Yu suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Don't, Old Dai! I'm just not interested in money, but if my medical skills can help the patients of the Affiliated Hospital, I'd be very happy!"
Gu Yu snatched the crumpled contract from Dai Zhengguo's hand, then placed it against the wall to smooth out the creases.
He briefly scanned the contract's content, finding nothing out of order—basically, it stated that he needed to help out at the Affiliated Hospital when they needed him, and if he had the time.
Moreover, he could decide his own schedule.
Of course, there were fixed clauses, too, stipulating that he must be present at the Affiliated Hospital for at least half a day each week.
The Affiliated Hospital would also pay him a corresponding salary.
The amount was unexpectedly substantial—three thousand yuan per visit!
Furthermore, there was a corresponding bonus at the end of the year.
Essentially, aside from not being a permanent doctor at the Affiliated Hospital, all other benefits were complete!
He could sign!
Just then, a nurse was going around with a medical order form to get a patient's signature, and Gu Yu called her over to borrow a pen.
He clicked the pen's cap and, without hesitation, signed his name on the contract.
"Thank you!"
Gu Yu thanked her with a smile, and the nurse almost didn't move.
"You really signed?" Dai Zhengguo asked in disbelief as Gu Yu handed over the contract.
"Of course, it's real. How could this be fake? My name is written right there, in black and white."
Gu Yu curled his lip, finding the old man far too flustered.
Why was he always so shocked? It's not like Gu Yu was some kind of monster.
"Good... good, since you have the heart to contribute to the medical field, that's naturally for the best!"
Checking Gu Yu's name on the contract, Dai Zhengguo stuffed it into his pocket like a treasure, looking as careful as if afraid Gu Yu would regret it and snatch it back.
"Marx once said: Only when a man works for the perfection and happiness of his contemporaries, of his fellow men, can he achieve his own perfection."
Gu Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and said something Dai Zhengguo could never have anticipated.
"You..."
Dai Zhengguo found himself at a loss for words, not expecting Gu Yu to utter such a statement.
"Haha, I am a socialist successor!"
Gu Yu laughed heartily. Although his tone sounded joking, Dai Zhengguo's eyes got misty.
If the youth are like this, why worry about the prosperity of the home and country?
That was their older generation's belief.
