Chapter 1372: Chapter 1041: The Beacon Fire Reignites

Li Gaoyang’s surgery was extremely successful; it was purely a lifesaving surgery. Without Yang Ping as the chief surgeon, Li Gaoyang wouldn’t have survived for more months, but now the ticking time bomb inside his skull has been removed by Yang Ping.

A few days later, the post-operative pathological examination results came out: the tumor was benign. It was only its perilous location that had endangered his life. Given that the tumor was benign, this surgery was a permanent fix because the chance of such tumors recurring is very low.

This made Li Gaoyang feel incredibly reassured. He decided that as soon as he was discharged, he would immediately launch a retaliatory strike against Ruixing Medical. Huang Jiacai had demanded too much in the negotiations; now, he must crush Huang Jiacai’s Ruixing to quench his anger and to prevent it from becoming his strongest competitor in the medical field.

If he had been wary of Yang Ping before due to needing surgery, Li Gaoyang now had no reservations whatsoever; no longer needing to rely on Yang Ping, he could act freely in executing his revenge.

Indeed, he had already begun strategizing from his hospital ward, laying plans to press Ruixing Medical down until it collapses, to strike down the enemy before it could grow strong.

When Li Gaoyang made such a decision, even Rolf felt it was inappropriate, but Li Gaoyang had no sense of guilt. Instead, he felt that Yang Ping performing the surgery for him was a given, a necessary humanitarian act, a duty doctors are obligated to fulfill. Since this was Yang Ping’s duty, why should he feel grateful? Therefore, he shouldn’t harbor any gratitude due to the surgery; such feelings shouldn’t serve as moral shackles in his business decisions.

Listening to Li Gaoyang’s explanation, Rolf found it very reasonable, thus supporting Li Gaoyang to start the plan now, launching a surprise attack on Ruixing Medical.

This news reached Huang Jiacai’s ears, and everyone felt that Li Gaoyang was inhumane, ungrateful, immediately turning around to target Ruixing right after his surgery.

Huang Jiacai had long seen through these people. In dealing with them, one must possess no kindness; any trace of kindness is cruelty towards oneself.

Thus President Huang never harbored any illusions about Li Gaoyang at that time. The benefits that should have been gained had already been secured. In dealings with these people, interests come first and morals are worthless; any moral demands are but ropes binding oneself.

"How did you know Li Gaoyang would betray us?" Huang Jiahui was extremely impressed by her brother’s precise judgment.

Huang Jiacai pulled out a copy of "The Thick Black Theory" from the bookshelf and handed it to his sister: "I suggest you read this book more."

"I’ve read it many times already; I simply can’t accept its ideology. How can one behave like that, thick-faced and black-hearted?" She had read the book many times because her brother had recommended it.

"How about this one?" Huang Jiacai then handed another book, "The Analects," to Huang Jiahui.

"How many times have I read it? It’s too pedantic," Huang Jiahui said.

"You haven’t understood my intentions. You’ve only learned half from either of these books, possessing only half a character. Use ’The Analects’ with your own people, and ’The Thick Black Theory’ with enemies. However, people often fall into a misconception. Using ’The Analects’ with enemies is like a sheep walking into the tiger’s mouth, and using ’The Thick Black Theory’ with your own people is utterly inhumane. Only when these two books are combined does it constitute a complete study on how to live. Look at the three books I frequently read on my desk---’Tao Te Ching’, ’The Analects’, ’The Thick Black Theory.’ ’Tao Te Ching’ is philosophy, telling us how the world operates, ’The Analects’ tells us how to interact with family and friends, ’The Thick Black Theory’ teaches us how to deal with enemies and the wicked," Huang Jiacai, sitting in his executive chair, earnestly lectured his sister.

"I understand now!" Huang Jiahui seemed to have an epiphany.

"Regarding people like Li Gaoyang, I will be worse than him, darker hearted, and more thick-skinned... otherwise, how could I possibly win? He has no bottom line, and if you have one, you’re bound to lose. If he has no bottom line, neither should you, so we could compete on the same level," Huang Jiacai stated.

Huang Jiahui worriedly said, "What shall we do?"

"No need to worry, I’ve already prepared everything. Regardless of what plan Li Gaoyang adopts, we will absolutely not compromise. Please remember a grand quote---’Seek peace through struggle, peace shall live; seek peace through compromise, peace shall die.’ We fear no struggle, no matter how long it lasts; who’s afraid?"

The company most needed by Li Gaoyang in his efforts to suppress Ruixing is Giant Medical. This company has deep operational roots in China and possesses sufficient strength to suppress Ruixing Medical. Gan Fengyi, the new CEO of Giant Medical Asia, will serve as the vanguard in this battle against Ruixing.

Compared to Han, who was parachuted in previously, the locally promoted Gan Fengyi is more familiar with the domestic market conditions in China and is always known for being sagacious and vigorous in execution. She is an exceptional talent within the Giant, and after being recommended by the Giant’s senior management, Li Gaoyang has decided to entrust Gan Fengyi with this critical task.

At a high-end restaurant, one could see the river view of Nandu outside the window; Huang Jiacai and Gan Fengyi were sitting face-to-face dining.

"Storm clouds are gathering, and a great battle is about to begin. Are you ready?" Gan Fengyi asked with concern.

Huang Jiacai spoke with ease: "Right now, I’m worried about nothing except whether your words hold true."

"What words?" Gan Fengyi asked.

"You said that if Ruixing isn’t defeated and wins this war, you’ll marry me," Huang Jiacai said, looking intently at Gan Fengyi.

Gan Fengyi blushed: "Of course, my word is my bond. It all depends on whether you have the capability."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

"If you lose, you can no longer cling to me afterward."

"The consequences of losing this battle seem quite severe, but rest assured, I will win! After all, this victory is related to my future happiness."

"Don’t underestimate me; I know you best and know where your weaknesses lie, so whose prey will fall is not yet known," Gan Fengyi reminded Huang Jiacai not to be careless; she wouldn’t go easy this time, but would go all out.

"They say spouses are the closest competitors; this saying isn’t false for us," Huang Jiacai sighed.

"Stop, we are not spouses yet."

"It’s just a matter of time."

"Depends if you have the capability."

"If I win, you’ll have to bring some dowry if you marry me, right?"

"Dowry?"

"The dowry is you bringing your entire team to join us at Ruixing, becoming my capable assistant, helping us to expand our market."

"What about your bridal gift?"

"Shares in Ruixing and my bank cards---."
