Healing Doctor

Chapter 462 premieres

Director Fan did not disappoint. With his extensive network of connections and the help of his financial backers, he secured the right to have sensitive actions and scenes censored to avoid being broadcast online.

This excited the entire film crew.

Working non-stop to expedite post-production editing, Director Fan kept a close eye on the process, never letting go until he approved every single frame.

At first, Director Fan thought this episode was doomed, ruining his reputation. But the offer was too much, and he couldn't refuse.

However, just one episode changed Director Fan's opinion, and the second episode, which was still in editing, completely overturned his worldview.

Six hours before the release, the editing was completed. Director Fan was exhausted and went to find a place to rest.

Before the show started at 20 p.m., he took a shower, almost changed clothes, burned incense and prayed, and then sat in the control room to watch the show attentively.

The program has started airing.

The room check was only briefly mentioned, since there was a similar segment in the first episode, and the plot couldn't be padded out.

After a brief formality, Director Yang and the interns began reviewing the medical records.

"Dr. Zhao, please take the patient's medical history."

Director Yang called out the roll first.

Zhao Mengmeng looked completely bewildered, showing no signs of having achieved outstanding results in both the written test and the interview.

……

Director Bai stared at the screen, while Director Liu poured himself a drink.

On the screen, Zhao Mengmeng is focused on writing medical records. Her figure is graceful and she is impeccable in terms of both education and appearance.

"Old Bai, what's so interesting about this?" Director Liu said. "He's just a junior doctor. He looks like he has good grades and has been a top student all his life, but you still don't know what's going on. If you throw someone like that into clinical practice, most of them will fail."

"I'm really looking forward to it," Director Bai said leisurely.

He was definitely talking about Ji Xiang, not Zhao Mengmeng; Director Liu knew this perfectly well.

"It's still early."

"Hehe, Dazhi, what do you think Ji Xiang's performance will be like?" Director Bai asked.

"Nothing special," Director Liu said seriously. "It's just routine work. This is a variety show, so just act like you're doing normal work in the hospital. Are you expecting Ji Xiang to do something special? Is he running a fever? Or are you just daydreaming?"

"I don't think so," Director Bai said with a smile.

Director Liu knew his old friend well, and judging from Director Bai's expression, he was really looking forward to seeing Ji Xiang's wonderful performance.

……

Zhao Jixiang and Zhao Tianjiao sat upright on the sofa at home, watching the program intently.

Although Zhao Tianjiao didn't want to contribute to Ji Xiang's or the show's ratings, he still watched it in the end. He was really looking forward to it if Ji Xiang's performance was mediocre, if the show received a very low rating, or even if Ji Xiang said something wrong and countless idols started criticizing him on social media.

"Dad, this top student seems quite weak."

When Zhao Tianjiao saw Director Yang asking Zhao Mengmeng to read the medical records, Zhao Mengmeng looked completely bewildered, which aroused his disdain to a great extent.

Zhao Tianjiao believed that these interns, including the one who had been working at the First Affiliated Hospital, were not as good as herself in terms of overall quality.

Zhao Mengmeng, in particular, is practically just a pretty face.

"You can't say that," Zhao Jixiang said, looking at Zhao Mengmeng who looked completely bewildered. "There are roughly two types of doctors in the department: one type does the work, performs surgeries, and manages patients. Their job is to earn money and increase everyone's performance bonuses."

"Another type is research-oriented doctors, who are responsible for conducting research and publishing papers."

"Both sides benefit; everyone earns money, publishes papers, and gets promoted. This intern named Zhao Mengmeng is clearly a research-oriented person. If you encounter someone similar in the future, don't be arrogant; try to build a good relationship with her."

"Dad, in orthopedics, I haven't seen any doctors who are research-oriented."

"That's now. We're about ten years behind the South," Zhao Jixiang said. "In the new generation of doctors, there will be similar people."

"Um... how long have you been feeling unwell?" Zhao Mengmeng stammered on the TV.

"Hahaha." Zhao Tianjiao laughed heartily upon hearing Zhao Mengmeng's diagnosis.

This is incredibly unprofessional. It doesn't resemble a doctor at all. I suspect this person hasn't even done an internship, or maybe they just casually went through the motions in the clinic.

As a result, he gave himself away as soon as he started asking questions.

Her awkward expression and tone of voice would involuntarily draw disdain not only from doctors but also from patients. This is an irreparable flaw for doctors, leading to an extremely passive clinical situation.

"You didn't ask about the past history," Director Yang said.

"Oh, oh, oh," Zhao Mengmeng quickly replied. "Have you had any illnesses in the past?"

"Dad, this level is really bad," Zhao Tianjiao said disdainfully.

"It is indeed a bit poor, but that's only in the area of ​​clinical contact with patients."

Zhao Jixiang smiled slightly.

"Keep watching, Tianjiao. You need to know that the treatment you receive when you first arrive at the clinic is different from others."

Zhao Tianjiao nodded, still somewhat disdainful, but he didn't say anything more.

……

……

Feng Yuqing laughed at Zhao Mengmeng's "clumsy" answer, "Are all young doctors bullied like this? I feel so sorry for her."

"Oh, this is nothing," Tang Yan said. "Young doctors don't get mistreated by their senior doctors."

"Then what constitutes being mistreated?"

"Nurses," Tang Yan said, "I usually get scolded by the senior nurses in the department, but the worst thing is getting scolded by the circulating nurse when I first enter the operating room. The first time I saw a circulating nurse scolding a young doctor, I was so embarrassed I almost crawled under the sterile table. It was unbearable to watch. How can I put it? It's even harsher than scolding your own dog when you get home."

"Why are you swearing?"

"The young doctors who have just come to the clinic don't know anything," Tang Yan said. "They don't even have the most basic concept of aseptic technique. They just cause trouble in the operating room. There's nothing we can do. I know that young doctors are all nervous, and they don't do a good job of applying theory to practice."

"It's okay, you'll get used to being scolded after a while. Who can be a seasoned doctor as soon as they enter clinical practice?"

Tang Yan paused for a moment after casually mentioning this.

Who can?

Ji Xiang seemed different from others from the moment he entered the operating room. He was experienced and steady, without the impetuousness of a young doctor, and he never made a single mistake.

Tang Yan had even forgotten deep down that Ji Xiang was a young resident physician and treated him as a senior attending physician.

Aside from some surgeries that Ji Xiang wasn't qualified to perform but still found reasons to perform, Ji Xiang was a highly skilled doctor.

"Yan'er, what are you thinking about?" Feng Yuqing asked.

"Ji Xiang isn't like that. It's as if he's grown up in the operating room since birth," Tang Yan said.

"The first time I worked with him, he didn't make a single mistake; he was incredibly steady. He seemed even more composed than the head surgeon who had been performing surgeries for decades. It was strange."
