Chapter 493: Am I Finally of Use? (3)
The next morning, a complaint letter of thousands of words was placed on Huo Qingxiao’s desk. It not only described the harm that Tongquxing medicine had done to the children but also hoped that the Huo Corporation would come forward and settle all the children who had been deafened by the drug.
Hence, the Huo Corporation’s Board of Directors was held at the last minute.
When the shareholders were in place, Huo Shengyuan placed the complaint letter in front of him. “Is this what you told me?” he asked. “Take care of it properly?”
Huo Shengyuan picked up the letter and scanned through it quickly. In the end, he felt that these poor people were being too whimsical. Why didn’t they rob a bank instead of paying two million yuan for each child?
“You can put this letter in the Huo Family’s mailbox today, and you can also put it in the mailbox of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau another day. Have you thought about the consequences?”
“Dad, I’ll send someone to appease them and make sure they’re satisfied.” Huo Shengyuan promised.
“You have to bear the consequences of your actions. Ignoring them will only lead to a disaster.’
After Huo Shengyuan left the Huo Corporation’s meeting room, the directors expressed their latest views on Huo Shengyuan. Before Huo Jiuxiao came back, he could do things perfectly, but recently, he was always out of tune, perhaps because he was anxious.
Huo Shengyuan didn’t go back to work. Instead, he changed into casual clothes and went home to find Mu Qingya. He said to her, ‘T)ad wants us to go to the hospital to comfort the children. Pack up and come out with me.”
“If you just appease them, you might not be able to achieve the goal of appeasing them. In such a situation, money is always the key. How much sincerity does the Huo Corporation intend to take?” Mu Qingya asked Huo Shengyuan as she changed.
“That’s why we need to talk. The less, the better.”
Mu Qingya nodded. As a businessman, she couldn’t let those poor people demand an exorbitant price. If this precedent was set, there would be endless trouble in the future.
Of course, Huo Shengyuan would not just go there like that. He would find a lawyer and some parents’ representatives to state their conditions in the hospital’s meeting room.
“Hurry up and leave. We can’t let Huo Jiuxiao know about this. Otherwise, things won’t end well.”
However, Huo Shengyuan had a strong sense of destiny at this moment. He seemed to be able to feel that this incident, or perhaps everything in the future, would more or less be related to Huo Jiuxiao.
Knowing that the Huo Family was going to send someone to apologize and negotiate, the parents who were waiting in the hospital in anticipation of a miracle finally perked up. Just as Lin Wanli had said, no matter where their child’s hearing went, they could ask the Huo Family for compensation. This way, if the child’s ears had a chance, they wouldn’t be unable to fork out a single cent.
Therefore, the parents selected ten people to discuss with Huo Shengyuan.
Under the hospital’s arrangement, Huo Shengyuan, Mu Qingya, and the lavvyer team quickly took their seats. The parents’ representatives also entered the venue one after another.
It was this person who developed the new antibiotics. He did not know that it was poisonous, causing so many families to be torn apart. It was hateful.
“I deeply regret that Tongquxing medicine wasn’t able to be summoned back. The Huo Corporation has already tried its best to crack down on the unscrupulous merchants and scalpers who hoarded the medicine, but we still couldn’t prevent the medicine from being circulated. This is our dereliction of duty. I apologize to everyone.” Huo Shengyuan stood up from his chair and bowed to the crowd.
“We don’t want your apology. We just want to know how you plan to compensate us. It’s not easy to raise a child. Now that he’s deaf, does this mean that we have to drag him along for the rest of his life? Who would feel better about this?” The parent representative was a woman who weighed a little over 160 pounds. She had an afro and looked very fashionable. When she opened her mouth, it was the question that everyone was most concerned about.
“I’m sorry. The compensation is certain. The Huo Corporation has compiled some terms regarding compensation. You can take a look first.”
Huo Shengyuan asked the lawyer to distribute the documents prepared by the Huo Corporation to everyone.
“I’ll be responsible for all the treatment fees, school fees, and compensation of 300,000 yuan for mental health.” To Huo Shengyuan, this was a special treatment for these people. He felt that he had given them a lot.
However, the parents sneered.
“Three hundred thousand? Is the Huo Corporation here to humiliate me? Any child raised now would cost more than 300,000 yuan. My child is seven years old, and I’ve already invested more than 500,000 yuan in him.. How can your Huo Corporation have the cheek to say that?”
