The plan for free clinic activities is excellent!"
In the conference room, Wan Yunting held a proposal and nodded, then looked at the association committee members Ding Huixiang, Meng Kang, Wei Datong, Shen Tonghe, as well as Huang Jingshan and Song Sinan, who were sitting around the office desk. He smiled and asked, "Whose idea was this?"
"Chairman Wan, it was suggested by Little Gu."
Chen Jiadong pointed to a young girl standing behind him, who had likely just graduated from university and started working at the association.
Gu Yun'er's pretty face turned slightly red as Wan Yunting's gaze fell upon her, making her appear shy but inwardly excited and nervous.
"It's very good."
Wan Yunting, noticing her nervousness, withdrew his gaze and smiled, saying, "Before the end of the year, TCM associations across the country will be holding week-long free clinic activities for the public. This not only allows us to practice but also provides free health check-ups and consultations for everyone, ensuring a healthy New Year. This is a good thing."
"Therefore, I approve this plan, and we can start today."
"Great..."
Everyone immediately applauded. Gu Yun'er was most delighted that Chairman Wan had approved it.
"Then let Song Sinan and Shen Yingrui organize the free clinic activities. Everyone else should focus on their own tasks. Let's finish our work quickly so we can go home early for the Spring Festival," Wan Yunting said with a smile.
"Understood..."
Huang Jingshan and Shen Yingrui nodded, as did Li Tiangui and Ding Huixiang with smiles...
After a few more casual remarks, they dispersed to their respective tasks. Song Sinan, Shen Yingrui, and other young people began organizing the free clinic activities, setting up several groups in various districts of the capital to conduct TCM free clinics for the general public...
At noon, at the entrance of an ordinary alley, Song Sinan, Zhang Xiaoyu, Shen Yingrui, and other young members of the association set up a canopy, put out tables and chairs, a pulse pillow, a box of acupuncture needles, and many commonly used Chinese patent medicines...
"Attention, uncles, aunties, and everyone passing by..."
Gu Yun'er and her peers, who had also just graduated from TCM university, enthusiastically called out to people entering and exiting the alley: "We are from the TCM Association, holding a free clinic event here. If anyone wants to get a check-up..."
"It's a free pulse diagnosis and consultation, no charge. Uncle, would you like to have a look..."
A young man approached an old man, took his arm, and asked with a full face of enthusiasm.
"You are TCM practitioners?"
The old man, leaning on his cane, turned his head and scanned Song Sinan and Shen Yingrui sitting there with a doubtful gaze. He couldn't help but sneer, "A bunch of young kids claiming to be TCM practitioners, huh? It seems TCM is truly in decline..."
"It's not like that, Uncle. Don't just look at Doctors Song and Shen being young; their medical skills are very high. If you're feeling unwell, you can let them check your pulse..."
"Let go..."
The old man shook off the young man's hand and said with disdain, "I'm in good health, no need for you kids to treat me..."
"Hey..."
"Alright, Xiao Zhou..."
Shen Yingrui waved to the young man, signaling him not to bother the old man anymore.
"Well, we've been here for over half an hour, and no one dares to come to us..."
Zhang Xiaoyu, who was assisting Song Sinan and Shen Yingrui, saw the uncles, aunties, and people passing by, but not even a glance directed their way. Gu Yun'er and the others' enthusiastic smiles gradually faded...
Shen Yingrui smiled and encouraged them, "It's only been a little over half an hour. What's the rush? Let's wait a bit longer..."
So Gu Yun'er and Xiao Zhou began to solicit passers-by again...
Besides their group, Huang Jingshan, Ding Zipeng, Miao Yanzheng, Wei Renxin, and others in other groups also seemed to be ignored by passers-by. Even though it was free, no one was willing to be treated by them...
Time passed until the afternoon, at the association's office.
"Sister Yuxiu, you've come at the right time..."
Wan Yunting, who was sitting at the desk organizing materials on TCM channels, smiled as Li Yuxiu entered. "These are the various channels for Chinese herbal medicine. Who do you think should be responsible for this work?"
Li Yuxiu sat in front of him, took the documents, and looked at them. "Do you have anyone in mind?"
"Yes, Committee Member Shen and Committee Member Meng."
Wan Yunting got up and poured Li Yuxiu a cup of water...
"Committee Member Shen."
Li Yuxiu took the water cup and took a sip, making a decision.
"Alright, Uncle Shen is also a businessman and his family runs an herbal medicine business. If anyone understands the industry, no one in the entire association knows it better than him," Wan Yunting leaned on the desk and smiled at Li Yuxiu. "Then let him be in charge of the herbal medicine channel work."
Li Yuxiu nodded and said, "You understand the profits involved in herbal medicine, no need for me to explain!"
Wan Yunting nodded and smiled, "Don't worry about this. I believe Uncle Shen can maintain his conscience."
"That's good."
Li Yuxiu nodded, then added, "By the way, the free clinic for Sinan and Jingshan doesn't seem to be going well. No one is willing to be treated by them."
"Oh, is that so?"
Wan Yunting raised an eyebrow and nodded. "It seems that after all the incidents our TCM Association has faced this year, the public has become somewhat disappointed with TCM."
Li Yuxiu nodded and said, "Mainly because they see how young Sinan and the others are, and they don't trust them."
Wan Yunting smiled and waved his hand, then walked back behind the desk, picking up his car keys and phone. "Let's go and see. This free clinic activity is also very meaningful for us. It's the best way to let citizens come into close contact with TCM. I need to go and have a look..."
Li Yuxiu also got up, and as she came out, she happened to meet Li Tiangui and Ding Huixiang. They had apparently also heard about the unsuccessful free clinic and were coming to ask Wan Yunting for permission to go and have a look...
Seeing that the two elders had time, Wan Yunting naturally agreed to their help...
So Wan Yunting drove Li Yuxiu towards the group of Song Sinan and Shen Yingrui to help...
The young disciples from various sects who had been secretly following Wan Yunting immediately followed suit when they saw Wan Yunting drive out...
Wan Yunting knew they were following but couldn't be bothered with them, as long as they didn't disrupt his work...
"You little girl, you say I'm sick?"
At the free clinic in the alley, a middle-aged woman slammed the table and stood up, pointing at Song Sinan and yelling, "A few days ago, my daughter took me to the hospital for a full check-up, and I was perfectly fine. But you say I have a serious illness? Are you cursing me?"
Song Sinan's delicate eyebrows furrowed. Facing the woman's accusations and scolding, she patiently said, "Auntie, let me ask you, have you been feeling unwell in your stomach recently, with a dry and bitter throat at night, and a constant urge to drink water?"
"So what if I have?"
The middle-aged woman was very hot-tempered. Pointing at Song Sinan, she shouted, "Is it a disease that I'm thirsty at night and want to drink water? You young girl, if you can't treat people, don't come out and make wild diagnoses. If I didn't see you offering free services, I wouldn't even bother sitting down to let you make random diagnoses..."
"It's not like that, Auntie, you..."
"A bunch of young people, why can't they learn anything better than to learn TCM? The hospital checked me and said I'm not sick, but here with you, I am sick. I think you all are the ones who are sick..."
The middle-aged woman walked away while muttering, causing Song Sinan, Shen Yingrui, and Zhang Xiaoyu to frown, feeling very uncomfortable.
"Well, after finally waiting for a great-aunt willing to let us check her pulse for free, we end up like this..." Xiao Zhou shook his head helplessly, watching the middle-aged woman leave while still grumbling.
"It's really meaningless..."
Zhang Xiaoyu also suddenly felt that this free clinic was meaningless.
Song Sinan also sat down helplessly, waved her hand, and said, "Don't say disheartening things. It's understandable that people don't believe us. First, we are too young, and second, our TCM has indeed given people a bad impression recently. So it's normal for them not to come to us for treatment."
Song Sinan also said, "We must be patient..."
Gu Yun'er and the others nodded and started enthusiastically calling out to passers-by again, but the passers-by still didn't even glance at them...
After waiting for another twenty minutes, still no one came to be treated, which made Song Sinan feel dejected...
"Hey, it's Chairman Wan and Vice Chairman Li...!"
Xiao Zhou saw Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu walking into the alley from ahead. Gu Yun'er, seeing this, turned to Song Sinan and Shen Yingrui and exclaimed excitedly, "Sister Sinan, Brother Yingrui, it's Chairman Wan and Vice Chairman Li!"
"How are you doing?"
Wan Yunting asked them with a smile from a distance.
"It's been half an hour since the last person received treatment," Zhang Xiaoyu said dejectedly.
Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu were stunned. Seeing Shen Yingrui's helpless bitter smile, they understood the situation.
Wan Yunting stood by, looking at the passers-by in the alley, but no one looked at their free clinic booth, which appeared extremely deserted...
"Chairman Wan, what should we do?"
Gu Yun'er was a bit disappointed. "If I had known no one would be willing to be treated by us, I wouldn't have proposed this free clinic..."
"No, this is not your fault."
Wan Yunting smiled and waved his hand at her. "It's normal for people not to trust our TCM right now."
Then Zhang Xiaoyu suddenly thought of something and suggested, "Brother Wan, try posting on Douyin!"
"Yes, Brother Wan, post on Douyin and tell netizens that our TCM Association is holding a free clinic. Perhaps people will come to get their bodies checked," Shen Yingrui also said excitedly with a smile.
"Yes, I think it's feasible," Li Yuxiu also nodded with a smile.
After all, their free clinics were held in ordinary areas, targeting ordinary citizens. It was the first day, so it was normal for people not to come for treatment.
However, Wan Yunting was different. He now had tens of millions of followers on Douyin. If he posted a message informing everyone that he was holding a free clinic here, perhaps his fans in the capital would come to support him.
Wan Yunting expressed his concern, "If they all come just to support and not for actual check-ups, it might cause a huge crowd."
Zhang Xiaoyu chuckled, "Brother Wan, don't worry about that for now. Let's get people to come first."
"Yes."
Shen Yingrui and Song Sinan also nodded in agreement. Gu Yun'er and everyone else also felt that this method was feasible.
"Alright, then I'll shoot a video and post it on Douyin..."
Wan Yunting nodded, took out his phone, and opened his Douyin. Li Yuxiu leaned over to look at his follower count and was immediately stunned, exclaiming, "One hundred million...!"
"Wow, he really has a hundred million followers..."
Shen Yingrui also took out his phone and opened Douyin to look at Wan Yunting's follower count, and was directly shocked.
Zhang Xiaoyu, Gu Yun'er, and Xiao Zhou were also surprised. They all followed Wan Yunting on Douyin. His followers were only over eighty million a while ago, and now they have reached a hundred million.
What level was this? People's Daily on Douyin also had 120 million followers, but he, Wan Yunting, had over a hundred million followers personally.
It was terrifying to think about...
