"So, this guy is really … the world's top cardiologist?" The director of the Department of Health still could not believe it when he got the reply from his assistant.
The assistant shook his head without confidence and corrected him, "Both of them are legitimate doctors from Cleveland Heart Center. They came in through the proper channels. And they're the world's top cardiologists. That's the information I received. "
"Where did you get the information? Is it accurate?" the director of the Department of Health asked a little carelessly. At the same time, he was already planning something in his head.
When they came over, they heard some rumors, but they only thought that Lower Groove Clinic was bluffing and did not pay much attention to it. It was just like how Cao Cao claimed to have an army of a million in Chibi, and Darius the Third claimed to have an army of a million in Issus. There were exaggerated propaganda models in China and abroad.
The director of the Department of Health thought that he could be deceived and make some news to gain some popularity. He might even be able to get some material for his work report.
However, if the two foreigners in front of him were really the world's top cardiologists, it would be like Cao Cao really had a million mercenaries, and the situation would be completely different.
"I called the old leader of the hospital and asked a few friends who work in private clinics." The assistant did not mind telling the source of the information, because he did not dare to guarantee the authenticity of the information.
"Is it true?" the director of the Department of Health continued to ask.
"Some don't know, but a few people have heard about it." The assistant smiled and said, "These two were invited by an academician. They're a very good cardiologist in the country. He specially invited them to be Huo Congjun's backup surgery in Yun Hua Emergency Medical Center. "
The director digested his words and asked, "What's the point of being a backup surgery?"
"There's no point. It's just their unorthodox way of doing things. Ling Ran operated on Huo Congjun, but he was afraid that there would be problems, so he spent a lot of money to hire two American experts to protect him. I've asked several people to confirm this matter, and it should be true. " The assistant paused for a moment and said, "Also, the private clinics in our country are all connected to Cleveland Heart Center, which proves that Felix and Karen are indeed here. I have a screenshot of their photos here. "
The assistant took out his phone from his pocket and tapped on the screen. It was a photo wall.
In the photo wall, there were Felix and Karen's photos in the middle of the row. There were also some explanations and introductions in English below.
"Does this mean that Lower Groove Clinic really hired two doctors from Cleveland Heart Center?" The bureau chief was basically convinced by now.
The deputy's eyes flickered. "If it's a press release or something, this evidence should be enough."
"Well, if you want to send a press release, the evidence is definitely enough," the director repeated.
Both of them were hinting at something, but neither of them wanted to say it out loud.
The atmosphere of tacit understanding flowed between the two of them. Vaguely, their trust in each other increased.
"If you can ask a friend at the Immigration Bureau to confirm their identities, I think it'll be better." The deputy gave a suggestion.
Indeed, if they only needed to send out a press release, the evidence just now would be enough.
However, since it was rare to encounter such a thing, the two of them were obviously thinking about more than just the news.
The assistant was someone in the medical circle, and he had basically done everything he could. The director agreed with his suggestion and turned to make a phone call.
In fact, it was not just the director. Those who were quick-witted were now wandering around and making phone calls.
The Ling family's Lower Groove Clinic was only so big. A few of them walked around and bumped into each other. In the beginning, they greeted each other and smiled. But after walking around for a long time, they all lowered their heads and pretended not to see each other.
There were also two people sitting in front of the tea table on the second floor. Each of them took a corner and started making phone calls.
Tao Ping did not care what they did for a living. She treated them like neighbors. She poured tea for each of them and ignored those who did not want to drink.
After a long time, the director returned to the consultation room with a beaming face.
When the deputy saw this, he could not help but ask expectantly, "Is it confirmed?"
"Yes. I didn't expect … "The director held back his laughter. He coughed and said," I didn't expect Cleveland Heart Center to be the best cardiac surgery hospital in the world. "
"That's right. Even in the United States, Cleveland Heart Center is unique. "The deputy's hand slid to his phone. At the same time, he asked," Did you hire someone? "
That was a fact that was obvious.
They were all people in the health system. Naturally, they knew how valuable an excellent doctor was. Compared to the resources they had, the value of a doctor from the world's best cardiac center in the United States was even greater. He could create a level that they could not reach even if they stood on their tiptoes.
If they did not know about it, it would be fine. But now that they knew, there was no way they would let go of these two big pieces of gold.
The director chuckled and only said one name. He said, "Liu's mother-in-law goes in and out of the hospital two or three times a year. Her heart condition is very serious. I think he also knows the name of Cleveland Heart Center."
"He agreed?" The deputy was filled with envy.
The director nodded.
"Then, you have to ask him to bring people over quickly. Don't delay it anymore. Foreigners can't stay in the country for too long, "the deputy reminded him. When arranging beds for these people, they were often late. Doctors from local hospitals might have to wait, but doctors from foreign hospitals might not.
The director nodded again. Then, he said in a strategically advantageous manner, "This leads to the second problem."
"The second problem?"
"We have to control the quota." The director pursed his lips and gestured for him to pay attention to the large number of people queuing up.
The deputy immediately understood and said, "I'll talk to the person in charge of the clinic."
"Okay, tell them that we don't need to fight for a lot of seats, but we still need to arrange the surgery time as much as possible." The director raised his fingers and said, "I'll count three people here."
This was the base number.
The assistant understood what Ling Jiezhou meant and automatically led him to Ling Jiezhou.
…..
Zhang Tiancheng, a community health worker from the neighboring Upper Groove Clinic, could not accept it when he saw various leaders looking for Ling Jiezhou. There was even a fawning look on their faces.
He could actually understand the benefits brought by Ling Ran. A senior doctor from Yun Hua Hospital would definitely have all kinds of benefits for clinical-level organizations. But when it came to fawning, it surpassed Zhang Tiancheng's knowledge.
"What are you guys talking about?" Zhang Tiancheng rushed forward with a thick face, pretending to be a pharmaceutical sales representative.
"Old Zhang." The deputy director did not know Zhang Tiancheng very well, but his attitude was still good.
Of course, his attitude toward Ling Jiezhou was even better.
The deputy director turned around and said with a smile again, "Chief Ling, it's a deal. You have to reserve the next number for us."
"No problem. Let's make an appointment. If they come, let your people see them first, "Ling Jiezhou said with a smile," But let's also agree that if they don't come, the number will be invalid. If you want to add more people, you can only line up at the back. If there are too many people at the back and the two foreigners return to China, I won't be able to do anything. "
"Okay. We'll do as you say. "The deputy director felt that it was a good deal since he had cut the queue for more than ten people and did not have to spend much.
Ling Jiezhou was also satisfied. After all, he had to pay for the registration, consultation, and prescriptions to his clinic. For him, it was a rare experience to have someone rush to pay.
And it was a very good experience.
On the other hand, because they might need to perform surgery, the Health Bureau had to help solve the problem of operating theaters and hospital beds. This included not only the dozen people who had cut the queue, but also all the people who had consulted Felix and Karen over the past few days.
Because of this, Ling Ran agreed to the results of their discussion.
Yun Hua Hospital was full anyway. If they could use the hospital beds in other hospitals for surgery under the coordination of the Health Bureau, it would be a solution.
The deputy director felt that he had solved the problem perfectly. After the discussion, he excitedly reported to the director.
The director first nodded in agreement, then looked into the distance and said softly, "I don't know what other hospitals think."
