A Valiant Life Chapter 900 – Can’t afford to offend him!

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

When the netizens saw the news, they couldn’t quite understand it.

To them, it was a little strange. Zhao Ming Qing had followed Master Lin in developing the leukemia prescription and he had made a large contribution. If he wasn’t promoted, that could still be forgiven but instead, he actually got demoted. Now, he had been forced to retire. This was f*cking ridiculous.

“F*ck! This is way too corrupted.”

“Jingchuan is so far from Shanghai, just look at the map! Then, take a look at Director Zhao’s age. Go and read up on what kind of school that Jingchuan Chinese Medical Academy is while you’re at it. F*ck, they’re trying to kill Director Zhao!”

“According to my knowledge, all the previous directors of that Chinese medical academy have all been infuriated by the students so much that they had to be admitted to the hospital before. It wasn’t because the students didn’t study properly, but because they caused trouble every day. If it isn’t about getting into a fight, it’s about impregnating someone. These kinds of problems occur every day there. It’s mentally and physically draining to work there.”

“No need to think about it, I’ve already seen through this. There’s too much corruption going on here, it’s scary.”

“Master Lin is too 6. He didn’t give them any face with his words. He was just flaming them. The person who made this decision must have sh*t for brains.”

“Isn’t that obvious? Master Lin is definitely pi*sed. This is an attack on his student. Master Lin must be thinking, ‘If you have the guts, come and mess with me instead.’”

“Hehe, to find trouble with Master Lin, those people must be mentally challenged.”

When the leader who had made the decision saw this news, his facial expression turned ugly. He immediately called for a conference to criticize this Master Lin.

Of course, this criticism was only within their organization. They didn’t have the guts to publicly criticize him.

“Look at this, what the heck are they saying? I have sh*t for brains? Does that Lin have no morals?”

Listening to the leader whine, the rest could only sigh helplessly. That was just how Master Lin was. In the past, when he had flamed others, all kinds of vulgarities would burst out. This was all expected.

However, what they had not expected was for Master Lin to have enough guts to flame them.

They were a national organization. This was completely and bluntly offending them.

“Leader, was this order given by the higher-ups?” asked one of the officials curiously.

He was actually a little curious. Anyone with a normal brain wouldn’t give such an order.

This Zhao Ming Qing was the Director of Shanghai Chinese Medical Academy and he was well-qualified, having made huge contributions to the development of Chinese medicine. Now that the order had been given to demote him, it didn’t make sense.

Especially now that the leukemia prescription incident was still drawing so much attention, they were simply disregarding everything and inviting carnage by doing that.

The leader glared at him. “What’s wrong with that order? This is a complete lack of discipline and lack of organizational behavior. That Lin doesn’t belong to any organization but how could that Zhao Ming Qing not understand this?”

“This isn’t a demotion. If he has the ability, then he should do more to help. That’s the faith that the organization has in him, not a ‘demotion’ as they say.”

The leader was furious. The public opinion was out and all the blame had been put on them. They definitely had to voice out, otherwise, if they continued drawing misunderstanding from the public, it would be troublesome to deal with.

Everyone was cursing in their hearts. Did the leader think they were all idiots? To be able to phrase a demotion so nicely, it was indeed an ability gained from talking in official jargon all the time.

However, it was true that sometimes, when making public statements, speaking in such official jargon could help to confuse some people.

By speaking ambiguously and mysteriously, one could speak for a long time without making any important points. It would be the same as not speaking at all but all this was to appease the public and make the public fill the gaps with their own imagination.

“Now that Zhao Ming Qing has applied for retirement, it would probably cause an even greater misunderstanding amongst the citizens,” said one of the officials.

The leader pondered for a moment. “Pass down this message: Think of ways to resolve this issue.”

Everyone felt helpless. The leader had screwed things up and had no way out, so they had to help him resolve it.

Not long after.

The official statement was out.

“Regarding the transfer of Comrade Zhao Ming Qing, it was a decision made after discussions. This represented the organization’s faith in Comrade Zhao, as well as a test for him. We hoped that Comrade Zhao would be able to carry the essence of Chinese medicine over to Jingchuan. Now that Comrade Zhao has applied for retirement, it is a shame. After much discussion, we’ve come to the following conclusion. We accept Comrade Zhao Ming Qing’s retirement request and his retirement benefits will be upgraded to…”

After the long statement had been publicized, it drew many people’s attention.

It had given the matter a conclusion.

For some citizens, after seeing the statement, they filled up the gaps with their imagination. They felt that it was reasonable. Capable people had more responsibilities. Since Zhao Ming Qing was so amazing, sending him to somewhere else was actually not a bad idea.

But to other citizens, this was simply shameless. For them to be able to phrase a demotion so nicely and even say it as if it was perfectly reasonable.

However, it didn’t matter. This matter couldn’t be settled with words anymore. Since a conclusion had already been reached, nothing else could be done.

…

Cloud Street!

When Lin Fan saw the statement, he laughed. This response had been really quite quick.

“Brother Lin, Director Zhao is really retiring?” asked Zhao Zhong Yang.

Lin Fan nodded. “Yeah, he has retired.”

Zhao Zhong Yang felt that it was a shame. They knew the truth behind this matter but there was nothing they could do about it. He was just a commoner, there wasn’t much that he could do.

“Brother Lin, the construction of the teaching block of the Welfare Institute is about to be completed,” said Zhao Zhong Yang.

Lin Fan was taken aback. “How do you know?”

“When I was coming here in the morning, I decided to make a detour to the Welfare Institute. I had a chat with the construction workers over there and they said that it would be finished in about half a month. Have you found teachers?” asked Zhao Zhong Yang.

Lin Fan slapped his own head. “Ah, d*mn. I’ve been troubled with so many things recently that I haven’t done many preparations. I have to hurry and contact some people.”

Ever since the new year, Lin Fan hadn’t been involved much with the Welfare Institute, mainly because he had been too busy. Now, he had to use his connections to find some teachers.

“Oh right, you’ve been a broadcaster all this time. Do you have any online friends that teach? Go and contact some of them and call them over for me. Work benefits are negotiable, as long as they are reliable,” said Lin Fan.

Zhao Zhong Yang patted his own chest reassuringly. “Don’t worry. I have online friends from all over the country. If they know that Brother Lin is hiring, who knows how many people would be willing to come? I’ll do a live broadcast right now to make this announcement.”

Lin Fan nodded. “Alright, then I’ll leave it to you. I’m going out for a while.”

He was going to go fishing. Since getting the angling class of knowledge, he hadn’t done a proper test yet. Today, he had to check it out properly and see just what kind of things he could fish up.
