Chapter 162: Got Money With Nowhere to Spend?
Queuing up, getting called, taking X-rays.
After finally getting the X-ray film, Chen Fan pushed Wen Wan back to the orthopedics department.
"Minor bone fracture. But the problem is not too serious."
The doctor gave his assessment after looking at the film.
"However, to enable a quick recovery, I suggest putting a plaster cast on."
Upon hearing this, Wen Wan became a bit flustered.
"Putting on a plaster cast would affect walking, wouldn't it?"
The doctor laughed, "Miss, not putting on a plaster cast would affect your walking even more, and there's also a possibility of secondary injury."
"Putting on a cast will help you recover faster. Besides, don't you have your boyfriend to help you walk?"
Wen Wan blushed and looked at Chen Fan, feeling a bit awkward.
Chen Fan, however, simply spoke up with a smile.
"We'll put on the cast."
"Alright then. I'll write you a prescription. You go get the cast put on next door first, then go downstairs to get the medicine."
Chen Fan thought for a moment and reminded, "Doctor, please also prescribe a crutch for us."
The doctor glanced at Chen Fan.
"Our hospital doesn't sell crutches. If you want to buy one, you can go to the medical equipment stores outside the hospital entrance. They sell them there."
"Understood, thank you doctor."
Chen Fan pushed Wen Wan out into the hallway, and Wen Wan immediately became anxious.
"I don't want to get a cast or use crutches..."
Chen Fan frowned, "Teacher Wen, why are you acting like a child? Don't you want to recover quickly?"
Wen Wan lowered her head, not knowing what else to think.
But Chen Fan didn't give her a choice. He pushed her to get the cast put on, and then took her to get the medicine.
"You wait here for me, I'll be right back."
Chen Fan rushed out, running to the medical equipment store at the hospital entrance and buying a crutch before returning.
"Come on! Try it out and see if it works?"
Wen Wan looked at the young man in front of her, with beads of sweat on his forehead from running too fast.
Her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
"What's wrong? Give it a try."
Chen Fan encouraged with a smile. Wen Wan hesitated for a moment, then stood up.
With Chen Fan's help, she tried walking with the crutch.
"No problem."
"Thank you."
Wen Wan felt a bit embarrassed, as she had taken up quite a bit of Chen Fan's time from the morning until almost noon.
"I'll pay you back when I get home."
Chen Fan waved his hand with a smile, "We'll talk about that later. You should go upstairs first. I know you still have things to do."
Wen Wan hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "My mother is in the inpatient ward, not in this outpatient building."
"Then I'll walk you over."
This time, Wen Wan refused Chen Fan's support.
"No need. You go ahead with your business. I can manage on my own."
Seeing that Wen Wan insisted, Chen Fan could only nod.
"Alright then, be careful. I'll go first."
"Oh, and what time will you be back at school this afternoon? Remember to give me a call, and I'll come pick you up."
Before Wen Wan could say anything, Chen Fan waved his hand.
"It's settled then."
With that, he left by himself.
Watching Chen Fan's figure leave, Wen Wan remained silent for a few seconds before turning and slowly making her way towards the inpatient building with the help of her crutch.
Chen Fan didn't return to school. Instead, he took a taxi to the west city area.
At the construction site, Ding Dian asked Chen Fan if he had thought of a name for this place.
They could put up the club's name in advance, which would serve as an advertisement.
Chen Fan hadn't really considered this. After thinking about it for a moment, he casually came up with a name.
"Medal Club."
"What?" Ding Dian didn't catch it.
"I said, let's call it Medal Club."
Ding Dian frowned, seeming unsatisfied with the name.
"This name... it's too masculine. Don't forget that this club will also include a badminton court and a tennis court. Your future customers won't just be men."
Chen Fan laughed, "It's alright. Who says women don't need medals?"
Ding Dian shook her head, "Whatever, you're the boss after all."
Chen Fan immediately leaned over with a smile, "Do you know anyone who does advertising billboards? Can you get someone to make a sign and hang it up?"
Ding Dian was instantly angered, "How are you even more shameless than Huang Shiren?"
"I'm not even an official employee yet, and you're already exploiting me like this..."
Chen Fan quickly backtracked, "Okay, okay, I take back what I said."
"This small task, I can just have Old Feng handle it."
Chen Fan thought for a moment and then leaned over with a smile to ask.
"Let me ask you something, aren't you a college student who has just returned from overseas? Do you know any friends in the entertainment industry?"
Ding Dian frowned, staring at Chen Fan, unable to follow his train of thought.
Weren't they just talking about the advertising billboard? How did it suddenly shift to the entertainment industry in the blink of an eye?
Chen Fan explained, "Here's the thing, this club is about to be completed, right? Next month, once we've hired enough staff, I plan to do a trial opening. By then, I'll need to find some celebrities for endorsements."
Upon hearing this, Ding Dian suddenly laughed.
"I'm telling you, Big Boss Chen, you really think you're a big boss, don't you?"
"For such a small club, it's not worth getting celebrity endorsements. If you really think you have too much money with nowhere to spend, you might as well give me a raise."
However, Chen Fan looked dead serious.
"I'm just trying to grow and expand, you know? Besides, didn't we make a bet? I have to think of ways to make this club famous."
"You've got quite a few little schemes."
Ding Dian pursed her lips. Although she mocked him verbally, deep down, she actually admired Chen Fan.
This young man not only had financial resources but also vision, capability, and the ability to think ahead when doing things.
Ding Dian appreciated people like that.
Now she somewhat believed that Chen Fan's venture into this place might not just be relying on his family's wealth.
"Are you sure you want to go through with this?"
Chen Fan nodded, "I have to at least try. I've invested my entire fortune into this."
Ding Dian pondered, "Celebrity endorsement fees in the entertainment industry can be very expensive."
"For some big celebrities, their endorsement fee alone might be higher than the amount you've invested here."
Chen Fan waved his hand, "Who said I was going to get a big celebrity for the endorsement?"
Ding Dian frowned, "A second-tier celebrity? In that case, the effect would be discounted, and the money invested might just go down the drain."
"By the way, who exactly are you planning to get?"
Faced with Ding Dian's curious gaze, the words Chen Fan was about to blurt out suddenly got stuck in his throat.
He realized he had made a mistake.
The three targets he had initially considered, whether it was F4, S.H.E., or Jay Chou, none of them had debuted yet, let alone become famous.
If he signed all three of them, and they later became hugely popular nationwide, Ding Dian would definitely become suspicious.
How could a student know which stars from Taiwan would become a hit?
And signing three different ones, all of whom became a hit. That would be too uncanny, right?
Realizing this, Chen Fan nearly broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
That was a close call, he had almost become too carried away.
Seeing Chen Fan remain silent, Ding Dian couldn't help but mock him.
"Don't tell me you haven't decided on the candidates yet?"
Chen Fan smiled and shook his head.
"Of course not, I actually have a few candidates in mind, like Richie Jen, Liu Ruoying, Sun Yanzi, or Dongli Huoche..."
Upon hearing these names, Ding Dian exaggeratedly opened her mouth wide.
"Wow, they're all the hottest singers right now."
"Do you know how much their endorsement fees are? I think you've given up on living..."
