University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 777 - 564: A School Doctor and an Exorbitant Penalty Clause!

Sponsored

Unlike Su Bingbing, who was obviously shocked in her tone,

the voice of the show’s director was clearly much more frustrated than Su Bingbing’s.

Sitting in the car with a gloomy face, he spoke: "When we first contacted Hai City University to do this show, the president of Hai City University had already mentioned to us that the school had only one school doctor, and once the recording of the program started, this school doctor, no matter what, wouldn’t be replaced."

"They even wrote this into the contract."

"And they made us sign a huge penalty for breach of contract."

"At that time, I didn’t take the requirements of Hai City University seriously at all."

"The protagonist of our school doctor season is a school doctor, so there’s no problem if there’s no change."

"I used to think this was just an insignificant piece of information, but now I realize how deep this president’s thoughts are!"

"He probably knew about the issues with Chen Mu long ago, but at the beginning of the program recording, he didn’t explain clearly to us, which has led to our production team being caught in a dilemma now!"

"In the past, if there was such a scandal, it was just an amateur involved, and we could just change the person we’re recording."

"But now, with a contract binding us, we only have two options: either pretend as if nothing happened, or pause the program."

Su Bingbing also snapped out of her earlier shock.

Pondering, she looked at the chief director in front of her, who was still gritting his teeth, and gently curled her lips: "But the initial effect of our season was so good, if you really pause the recording, you might be unwilling, right..."

The chief director gritted his teeth: "But if we continue broadcasting, not to mention whether this kind of scandal will affect the subsequent program effect, having a protagonist like Chen Mu, our production team might even face the risk of being pulled off the air and corrected."

"We are now!"

"Totally being held down by Hai City University!"

In the end,

the chief director’s face even became somewhat distorted.

In the entertainment circle,

he is also one of the top variety show directors, always in a position where only artists and sponsors speak nicely to him.

When,

could he ever be played so badly by a "partner" he never took seriously?!

The director just thought about it and felt an unprecedented grievance.

Su Bingbing looked up from her phone and at the director: "But... the premise of everything you said is that Dr. Chen really made a mistake back then, and not that Dr. Chen was the one who was wronged. If Dr. Chen was indeed falsely accused at the time, then our production team should stand on the same side as Dr. Chen."

"This way, when people in the industry talk about you, director, they will admire you even more."

"Is that not so?"

Admire?

Listening to Su Bingbing’s words,

the director scoffed, and even his gaze at this leading female host turned somewhat unfriendly, "Su Bingbing, you wouldn’t have developed feelings after doing the show with Chen Mu for so long, right?"

"The incident back then made such a big fuss."

"If he Chen Mu didn’t do anything wrong, he would have already come out and cleared things up, wouldn’t it have happened by now?"

"Moreover, ever since Chen Mu’s father was exposed on a live stream, everything has become clear."

"The patient’s family was indeed wronged back then, but since Chen Mu’s family was wealthy and powerful, they forcibly suppressed the scandal of the year, but now, times are different, did you know?"

Without a table in the car,

the chief director slapped his thigh so hard it echoed.

"Times are different now!"

"Because of the massive publicity our production team has brought to Chen Mu, it’s not so easy to suppress this matter now!"

"Even if Chen Mu has an influential father!"

As the chief director’s voice grew louder,

the others in the production team also spoke.

"Actually, I think the best way is to change the protagonist now."

"Doesn’t the Hai City University of Traditional Medicine have so many intern doctors? Those intern doctors can also serve as school doctors."

"Yeah, I saw that the intern doctor named Mu Yao is currently very popular on the internet, the protagonist of the school doctor season can totally be changed to this Dr. Mu."

"But didn’t the director say that when signing the contract, Hai City University set a huge penalty for breach of contract?"

"What about the penalty, the premise of the penalty is that there is no scandal on Chen Mu, he has such a huge scandal now, even if our production team switches people, they won’t win the lawsuit against us later!"

"Exactly, it has affected our production team, we wouldn’t even ask Chen Mu to pay, he still expects some huge breach penalty."

Su Bingbing had been in this circle for a long time.

Though she was already accustomed to the flattery and backstabbing in this circle,

hearing these confident discussions now,

still made her feel angry.

Taking a deep breath,

forcing herself to appear somewhat calm, "Everyone... do you really know what you’re saying now..."

"The relationship between our production team and Dr. Chen could be considered as a partnership."

"If we, at a time like this, switch the protagonist without distinguishing right from wrong, perhaps the blame will really fall on Dr. Chen."

With that,

Su Bingbing opened the live stream page on her phone.

Turned off the barrage full of doubts and scoldings.

Asked: "Dr. Chen himself is still treating and saving lives right now, isn’t it inappropriate for us to add insult to injury at this time?"

Sensing the heavy atmosphere inside the car,

Su Bingbing continued: "Of course, if it is confirmed that Dr. Chen did indeed cause a medical accident in the past, then I also agree with your idea of canceling the partnership, but I hope to give Dr. Chen a chance to explain."

"At least wait until Dr. Chen finishes treating this patient, bring him here, and ask about the specifics of what happened back then."

"We were not the parties involved, only Dr. Chen himself is more aware of the cause and process from back then."

"Besides..."

Su Bingbing closed the program’s live stream page on her phone.

Opened another page.

Looking at her colleagues who were silent, she continued to ask: "Have any of you seriously looked at the statements about the so-called patient’s family defending their rights?"

"The hospital and relevant departments have intervened in the investigation regarding that medical dispute before."

"The conclusion given by multiple departments was that Dr. Chen was not responsible."

"As for Dr. Chen leaving Renmin Hospital later..."

Su Bingbing nodded at her phone page, "It was also Dr. Chen’s voluntary resignation, not that the hospital expelled him. All of you have been in the workplace for a long time, you should understand that being expelled and resigning voluntarily makes a substantial difference, doesn’t it?"
