This doctor is already middle-aged, and he's only just started practicing medicine.

Chapter 283 Arguments!
When Lu Cheng arrived at the emergency department, Xiang Kai, who was on duty, told him to go to the director's office in the internal medicine area.

After thanking him, Lu Cheng turned and left. When he pushed open the door to the director's office, there were nine people sitting inside.

Director Huang Haibo; Deputy Directors Wu Yuxiang and Zhou Zhaofu of the Department of Internal Medicine; and Tian Zhiliang and Dai Linfang of the Department of Surgery.

Vice President Yao Xin, Xiang Kun, Director Chen Zhong of the Medical Affairs Department, and Dong Chang, who had met Lu Cheng a few times.

When Lu Cheng pushed open the door, the meeting had already begun. Lu Cheng found the last seat, gently placed the chair down, and sat down, listening intently to Yao Xin's speech.

The two vice presidents also have different responsibilities: Vice President Yao Xin is in charge of surgical matters, while Vice President Xiang Kun is in charge of administrative matters.

In principle, surgical affairs are handled by Yao Xin, but who goes to which department requires Vice President Kun's signature and is then submitted to President Huang Chunhai of the hospital.

Yao Xin explained the essence of the meeting: "The construction of the trauma center and ICU in the emergency department is a major plan for our hospital this year, and it is an important matter concerning the lives of millions of people in the whole prefecture."

"The leaders of the State Health Commission and the State Party Committee attach great importance to this matter. At present, we have also made some preparations and overcome some difficulties, including but not limited to the objective conditions such as insufficient manpower and equipment in the emergency department."

"To this end, Dean Huang, the Medical Affairs Department, and other administrative departments have held multiple meetings to thoroughly analyze the feasibility of building a trauma center and have made relatively sufficient preparations."

"The main reason for coming to the emergency department this time is to get feedback from them."

"Director Huang, please share your thoughts."

Huang Haibo stated unequivocally: "I firmly support the hospital leadership's decision to develop the emergency department. The construction of the trauma center is an important matter that cannot be delayed."

"However, I come from an internal medicine background and have limited experience as a ward director. Therefore, my understanding of the construction of a trauma center is rather superficial, and I can only provide all the necessary conveniences within my personal scope."

Huang Haibo smiled insincerely: "As for the rest, I'm powerless to do it, so I can only follow the leaders' arrangements."

"Director Tian, ​​what's wrong?" Yao Xin looked at Tian Zhiliang.

Currently, Tian Zhiliang is the director in charge of surgery and is the 'representative'!
Huang Haibo is not like Xiao Zhaoxi; he cannot shoulder both responsibilities, so power has been delegated.

Tian Zhiliang glanced at Dong Chang and Xiang Kun, his attitude firm: "Dean Yao, I still stand by my previous stance. I am not capable of serving as a leader in the trauma center."

"If the leaders insist on making this arrangement, I will have no choice but to consider not renewing the contract and part ways amicably."

When Dong Chang's plan to become the head of the trauma center failed, he decided to take a roundabout approach and set his sights on Tian Zhiliang's position.

He wanted Tian Zhiliang to go with Lu Cheng to "fight in the arena," but Tian Zhiliang wasn't stupid. If he agreed, Lu Cheng would back out, which would be like sticking his head out to be cut off.

Although Tian Zhiliang could discuss with Lu Cheng and work together properly.

But this means placing all your hopes on Lu Cheng. As an adult, how could Tian Zhiliang be willing to entrust all his reliance to someone else?
Yao Xin's tone turned displeased and cold: "Tian Zhiliang, are you threatening me?"

"Dean Yao, are you forcing a cow to drink water if it doesn't want to?"

“I have the ability, and I have an unshirkable responsibility. I know I am not capable enough. If I were to take this position, it would be disregarding human life and disrespecting patients.”

"I can't do something like that," Tian Zhiliang said, his attitude remaining clear.

You can take my place and give it to Dong Chang, but I still won't go to the trauma center.

At this moment, it seems that Yao Xin is putting pressure on Tian Zhiliang, but Tian Zhiliang knows very well that Yao Xin is just putting on a show for Xiang Kun.

Tian Zhiliang's current position as deputy director is due to his connections. He may not be as powerful as Xiang Kun behind Dong Chang, but if Xiang Kun insists on pushing things, then he can certainly stand up to him.

It's currently in the commercial testing phase, so there's no need to make any overly definitive statements.

Can't I just retreat to advance? I don't want to do this anymore, can't I just leave?

Xiang Kun clasped his hands together and said in a kind tone, "Director Tian, ​​assigning personnel to the emergency department is a normal work arrangement in the hospital."

Tian Zhiliang said, "Dean Xiang, building a trauma center is not as simple as whether to eat rice noodles today."

"This arrangement must be two-way. I need to have a full understanding of myself."

"My abilities are limited, I can't do it!"

"I won't just say these things now; I'll also report them to the hospital leadership, the personnel department, and the medical affairs department!"

"Trauma centers are about the lives of emergency patients; they are not to be taken lightly, nor can they be taken lightly."

Xiang Kun then said, "Director Tian, ​​you won't be going to the trauma center alone; you can bring people with you."

“Once you’ve chosen someone, we’ll find a way to work on their mindset.”

If Lu Cheng can't resolve the situation, there are naturally other ways.

Tian Zhiliang and Lu Cheng have a friendship, so he certainly won't refuse so bluntly, leaving room for maneuver.

At this moment, Dai Linfang suddenly said, "Dean Xiang, I'm not familiar with the emergency department either, but if there are too many personnel changes, won't it affect the normal medical order?"

Before Xiang Kun arrived, he had done a detailed investigation into the personnel of the emergency department and knew that Dai Linfang was also one of the deputy directors arranged by the hospital. Therefore, he was quite polite: "Dr. Dai, the personnel arrangements certainly cannot be changed drastically, but minor adjustments are fine."

"In the surgical area, most people will still need to stay in their original positions. We have also spoken with our surgical colleagues about this."

Dai Linfang then politely asked, "So, regardless of personnel changes, the things that the emergency room and operating room can do now will also be able to do in the future?"

"You can even write work reports and such?"

Dai Linfang's words immediately made Xiang Kun frown.

To be honest, he hadn't thought about this in depth yet. What he was thinking at the moment was to let Dong Chang go to this position first.

Dai Linfang continued, "Currently, most surgeries performed in the emergency surgery operating room are led by Director Tian and Director Zhu Yuanzhou."

"If Director Tian really goes to the trauma center, then who will perform these routine surgeries?"

"Emergency surgery shouldn't just rely on referrals, right?"

While Dai Linfang was speaking, Dong Chang didn't say a word.

He's a general surgeon, but he's always worked in the gastrointestinal surgery department. Emergency surgery doesn't involve many surgeries requiring gastrointestinal expertise.

As for the rest, although he can learn them, it still requires a certain amount of time.

"This is my opinion. If Director Tian Zhiliang is separated from the emergency surgery department, and our workload in the emergency surgery department drops significantly, who will review the reports and who will be responsible for them?"

Under the hospital's new performance model, workload and task volume are now part of the assessment mechanism and are closely related to everyone's income. In that case, it won't just affect Tian Zhiliang alone.

Xiang Kun said, "Dr. Dai, do you mean that Director Tian's position should not be changed for the time being?"

Dai Linfang said, "Not long after Director Xiao of the Emergency Department left, the workload of our Emergency Surgery Department has already dropped by nearly one-sixth."

"Director Xiao's surgical techniques are irreplaceable!"

"Of course, if the hospital leadership can find a suitable person to take over Director Tian's position, then it will be a replacement."

“If not, I think I should apply for a transfer. I can’t stay in this emergency surgery department any longer,” Dai Linfang said with a rather subtle smile.

Dai Linfang's position as deputy director of emergency surgery was obtained without any dispute.

Having a doctoral degree, receiving approval from the hospital dean, the head of the emergency department, and the leader in charge of surgery, this in itself indicates that Dai Linfang is a rather eccentric person.

Dai Linfang said, "The trauma center is in its initial stage of reopening; everything is starting anew, and there are no established standards."

“I think a better option would be to keep the original staff in the emergency department unchanged, and transfer or apply for other positions for all the staff in the trauma center.” “In this way, the workload of our emergency surgery wards and resuscitation rooms will remain the same, and the trauma center can be set up normally and smoothly.”

"This is also a good opportunity for Director Dong to showcase his talents."

Dai Linfang was the first to break through the current murky situation.

Xiang Kun didn't care that after Dong Chang was assigned a position, the people below him would be dissatisfied and outwardly comply but inwardly defy him. There might be such people in the state hospital, but they weren't many.

Making jokes about patients or work attitudes is absolutely disastrous, and no one would be that stupid.
However, he only considered that Tian Zhiliang could go to the trauma center with Lu Cheng, but did not consider the impact on the "workload" of the operating room after the two of them left.

If, in the end, very few people die from ultra-emergency cases, but the mortality rate for sub-emergency cases actually rises, then things will get interesting.

"Dr. Lu, do you have any good suggestions?" Xiang Kun looked in Lu Cheng's direction again.

Lu Cheng shook his head and smiled憨厚ly, "Dean Xiang, I'm not a leader. I don't understand administrative arrangements, and I've never been a leader. I won't meddle in things I'm not a professional at!"

Lu Cheng's words were low-key and humble, but also very sarcastic.

You, Xiang Kun, who comes from a purely administrative background, why are you meddling in the personnel arrangements of the emergency department?
Xiang Kun was also very clever and said, "Dr. Lu, it's actually quite obvious that both Director Dong and Director Tian value you very much."

"As the saying goes, a great reputation is well-deserved, and Dr. Lu, your advice is very important."

"For example, could we try to reconcile things like this?"

"Director Tian, ​​please stay where you are. Director Dong Chang and Dr. Lu, would you like to go to the trauma center together?" Xiang Kun asked, subtly shifting the topic back from the current situation.

Retreat to advance, return to the fundamentals.

Lu Cheng shook his head, his expression solemn: "I don't know. I'm just a rough guy with a technical background, and my reasoning is simple and straightforward."

"If a teacher who is more capable than me wants to lead me, I have nothing to say."

Lu Cheng didn't say anything more, but everyone understood what was going on. This scoundrel who just messes around wants to be my leader? All I could say was something like, "Go to hell."

Lu Cheng's bluntness in this situation was somewhat unexpected by others.

Dong Chang, having been called out, blushed deeply and said, "Who do you think you are? Do you think the hospital can't function properly without you?"

Lu Cheng replied sincerely, "No, I've never thought of that."

"I admire and respect countless teachers."

"But there are a few teachers I don't respect or respect. I also work, eat, sleep, drink water, and make friends normally."

"The hospital can function normally without me, and I can still eat, drink, and relieve myself normally even without a few people. Isn't that just normal logic?"

From the moment Dong Chang showed up at the door and didn't treat Lu Cheng like a human being, Lu Cheng realized that Dong Chang wasn't a person in his heart, and there was no need to give her any face.

Lu Cheng does possess logical reasoning abilities, and his method of using the opponent's own methods against them is also extremely aggressive.

Dong Chang's face turned even redder, but he didn't dare to lash out. Lu Cheng was all smiles right now, and if he were to show a bad face in this situation, he would be a complete idiot.

It will only make people laugh, and no one will think that he saved face.

Everyone has a few teachers they like or dislike, teachers they respect or don't respect.

But then again, what can you do if you don't respect those teachers?

They're just people who are outside each other's circles.

Xiang Kun took a deep breath: "Dr. Lu, so you have a lot of opinions about the hospital leadership's personnel arrangements this time?"

Lu Cheng quickly shook his head: "Dean Xiang, please don't flatter me or try to trick me with your words."

"The hospital leaders are thinking about big issues and the big picture. I am just an individual, and my personal thoughts do not affect the big picture."

"I'm willing to follow the arrangements made by the hospital leaders!"

Xiang Kun seized the opportunity to confirm everything: "In that case, this meeting..."

Yao Xin interrupted, "Dean Xiang, this matter needs to be discussed again."

“Lu Cheng said he agreed to the leader’s arrangement, right? Doesn’t that conclude the discussion?” Xiang Kun said.

Yao Xin replied with a forced smile, "Then you, Director, will submit the report. You will sign it and bear full responsibility for all the consequences."

"If you dare to sign this report, Dean, I won't say another word!" Yao Xin's smile was a little cold.

Xiang Kun immediately shut up.

The meeting ended in discord.

……

After the meeting ended, Dong Chang found Lu Cheng somewhat annoyed. He stood opposite Lu Cheng and said in a low voice, "Lu Cheng, what unresolved grudge do we have that you keep targeting me like this?"

Lu Cheng raised his eyelids slightly and said, "Director Dong, I'm not targeting you. I'm just a surgeon, and I only believe in technology."

Dong Chang's voice sounded somewhat distorted for a moment: "What? People who aren't good at it can't live? Are people who lack talent guilty even of breathing?"

"Why?"

Lu Cheng replied calmly, "Our industry is all about risking your life!"

No one's life is more precious than another's.

"The depth of technology is the only way to measure the cost of trial and error."

"Instead of resorting to any tricks."

Lu Cheng took a deep breath: "What's more, Director Dong, your methods are disgusting."

"So, I won't be going to follow any rules with you!"

Seeing this, Dai Linfang, who understood what Lu Cheng meant, added a sarcastic remark: "Exactly, it's understandable if you're looking for someone's family, but what's the big deal if you're looking for someone's girlfriend's family?"

Upon hearing Dai Linfang's words, even Xiang Kun's expression changed drastically.

In the code of chivalry, it is believed that one should not bring trouble upon one's wife and children. Within the system, even if they are mortal enemies, the worst that can happen is that they will use someone's vulnerabilities, personal ethics, or violations against them as leverage.

Dong Chang even went directly to Lu Cheng's girlfriend's house, which made the situation particularly egregious.

After a long pause, Xiang Kun coughed and replied to the official, "Director Dong, weren't you going to report to me?"

"Let's go."

Dong Chang glared at Lu Cheng and left dejectedly.

He could sense that Lu Cheng wasn't afraid of him at all. He had no more tricks up his sleeve.

Dong Chang just couldn't understand why Lu Cheng dared to be so tough. Wasn't he afraid that his lack of ability might lead to some trouble?
