From small clinic to medical empire

Chapter 69 Sunshine City
Afterwards, the crew asked Zhang Zifan to fill out a detailed information form.

A few years ago, it also happened on domestic flights that crew members were required to ask doctors to fill out forms.

In fact, this was to facilitate the distribution of bonuses and surgical fees to the doctors who saved lives later. However, at that time, due to the unfamiliarity of the flight crew and their simple and rude language, passengers and parties misunderstood that the airline was trying to clear up medical risks.

Such news was disseminated through the media and had a wide impact.

After all, during that time, stories about helping the elderly and real incidents were overwhelming on the Internet, and many people worried that enthusiastic doctors would be blackmailed and held accountable.

Nothing like that happened this time. After fully understanding the purpose of the filled form, Zhang Zifan wrote down the address of Haoran Clinic.

About four and ten minutes later, the plane landed at Los Angeles Airport.

Before parting, the American reporter Wallace looked at Zhang Zifan gratefully and made a "cuckoo" sound.

Zhang Zifan returned a polite smile.

……

Since the two flights did not belong to the same airline, the three of Zhang Zifan and Mr. Nie's family had to go to the transfer counter to go through the procedures for the follow-up flight.

At the same time, you also need to check in your checked baggage.

After about two hours, Zhang Zifan and others boarded the plane again and took a small Delta Air Lines plane to San Diego.

Los Angeles and San Diego are very close to each other. The straight-line distance is less than [-] kilometers. It takes less than three hours by car and about an hour by high-speed rail.

However, although the California government wants to build a high-speed rail on the west coast, it has not laid a single nail because of all kinds of arguing.

Now there is only one old sea-view train line between the two cities, which is good for traveling, but it seems a bit slow to travel.

Surprisingly, there are airlines between the two cities.

The U.S. is the most resource-rich country in the world, and it is also the most extravagant waste of energy. The Paris Climate Agreement, the global warming crisis, and environmental protection girls are all bullshit in the eyes of the U.S. rulers.

It was the first time for Zhang Zifan to take this kind of small plane, and it felt like he had traveled back to the last century.

There were no more than 30 people in the whole plane, including the package crew, and Zhang Zifan and Mr. Nie accounted for half of the passengers.

Due to the short distance, the plane landed at San Diego Lindbergh Airport in less than an hour.

When landing, the small plane bumped violently, making Zhang Zifan a little nervous.

However, he observed the locals around him, and they all looked very calm. A black aunt even ignored the requirements of the safety manual and ate her sandwich.

After getting off the plane, the old man felt a little depressed, and Yuan Qiang vomited on the spot. He said that he would rather kneel on the high-speed rail than take a small plane like this.

From Terminal [-] to downtown San Diego, there is no subway, only one bus.

But Zhang Zifan and his party don't need to be so troublesome, because the children of Mr. Nie's younger brother have all driven over to pick them up.

Although Professor Zhu had hinted before that Mr. Nie's nephews didn't seem to care much about their father's illness, they still cared about Mr. Nie, the God of Wealth.

"Uncle, welcome to the United States of America!"

The eldest brother, Peter Nie, and the third child, Roy Nie, all stepped forward to welcome Mr. Nie.

The two spoke authentic southern American, which made Mr. Nie curl his lips.

My younger brother has always admired Western culture, and even deliberately did not teach his children Chinese after immigrating.

Grandpa Nie asked Nie Xiaohui to perfunctory them a few words before getting into his nephew's car.

Nie Xiaohui also accompanied her daughter.

Brother and sister Nie Xinhua and Nie Meifang got into Roy Nie's car.

The three of Zhang Zifan were arranged to ride in the car of the second sister Susan Nie.

Although she has a foreign name, in terms of appearance, Susan is a very ordinary Chinese aunt in her 40s.

It seemed that because of the recent fatigue, Susan looked very haggard, and there was no makeup on her face.

"Excuse me, are you a doctor from China?" Susan asked, starting the car.

To Zhang Zifan's surprise, Su Shan was different from her two brothers, she could speak stumbling Chinese, and her level of English was about the same as Yuan Qiang's.

"Yes, entrusted by Mr. Nie Yuanping, he is in charge of assisting your father in matters related to surgery." Zhang Zifan said truthfully.

There were probably a few unfamiliar words that appeared. Su Shan spent some time thinking while driving, and finally understood what Zhang Zifan meant.

She said: "My father's condition is very bad. Neither my father nor I can accept the plan given by the doctors here. We want to go to Los Angeles for medical treatment, but we need my uncle's help!"

Nie Yuanping was her uncle, but as a native American, it was a bit difficult to understand the difference between uncle and uncle, and Zhang Zifan didn't intend to correct her.

It is a big taboo to talk deeply about people in the world. Zhang Zifan still doesn't know the situation of this family, so he keeps silent.

However, it is obvious that Mr. Nie is no longer worried about his two nephews. The previous $70 was a lesson learned.

This time he came in person to ask Zhang Zifan to help evaluate the hospital's surgical plan and medical level. If the level was not satisfactory, he would find a way to transfer him to another hospital. He knew that his brother's condition could not be delayed any longer.

Once the cancer has spread, nothing matters.

……

The sunshine in San Diego is very good, and it has the reputation of the city of sunshine.

Looking through the car window, Zhang Zifan saw the blue sky in the outskirts of the city, and the beach on the seashore glowed golden under the sunlight.

It is indeed an excellent sun, but it is also the sun that is too good, which will increase the chance of skin diseases.

Mr. Nie's younger brother, lived in the water town of S City for the first half of his life, and came to San Diego for the second half of his life. He was somewhat unacceptable.

Although there were no skin problems, actinic cheilitis developed.

This disease occurs on the red lips. If not treated actively, it may become malignant and become lip cancer.

It can be said that he is not blessed to enjoy the sunshine in Sunshine City.

……

When the car drove into the urban area of ​​San Diego, the sense of astonishment just now gradually disappeared.

As a Chinese who grew up listening to Jin Kela's advertisements, Zhang Zifan has special feelings for the phrase "San Diego, USA".

However, when he actually saw it, he could only shake his head and smile wryly.

Yes, Sunshine City is still beautiful, but it doesn't have the feeling of looking up to you when you were a child.

This reminded him of the descriptions of his relatives who had been to Taiwan Province when he was a child, as well as the descriptions of his colleagues and classmates who had been to Taiwan Province in the past two years.

20 years ago, we went to Taiwan Province to experience the luxuries of capitalism, developed cities and advanced technology.

Today, we go to Taiwan Province to appreciate the natural scenery and experience the cultural customs of the island.

This is how Zhang Zifan feels in San Diego now.

I’m used to seeing the urban architecture of S City and Magic City, so it’s hard to be amazed by a small city like San Diego.

Just as Zhang Zifan was observing the old Mos who could be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, the car stopped.
