In the office.
Huo Congjun walked past the small window with spider plants and devil's ivy. He smiled and said, "Everyone, I want to announce something. The Medical Affairs Department has confirmed that we have received four applications. In the next few days, there will be four patients from Kenya, Ecuador, and Jamaica coming to the department for treatment. Everyone, please be alert."
Everyone clapped their hands.
"They came from abroad. Not bad."
"This is a bonus."
"The Hand Surgery Department doesn't have many patients who come here specially, right?"
"Department Director Jin Xi used to do a few, but he doesn't anymore."
Huo Congjun smiled like a fox that only knew how to wear a scarf. He said, "The four patients came for Doctor Ling. I have to say that Doctor Ling's Achilles tendon repair technique is world-class."
As he spoke, Huo Congjun clapped again.
Everyone in the department cooperated and clapped again.
Huo Congjun smiled faintly. "We're now at an important juncture in upgrading the Emergency Medical Center. Once we succeed, everyone here will have more opportunities to be promoted, receive advanced training, get a raise, and get bonuses …"
The applause became sincere at this time.
"So, now is the time to seize all the opportunities we can seize. I would also like to remind all of you here that Kenya and Jamaica are both big countries in track and field. The three patients who came here for medical treatment are their pathfinders. If we can provide satisfactory medical services, we will have the chance to get a longer-term cooperation … "Huo Congjun said very solemnly.
Chief Physician Tao, who was also a chief physician, also stood up at this time and gave an irrelevant reminder, "Department Director Huo, when you talk about medical services, it doesn't just refer to surgery. It also includes all aspects of the perioperative period. Everyone, please brainstorm and improve the competitiveness of our department …"
Department Director Huo waited for his sidekick to finish speaking before he called out Ling Ran and said, "Doctor Ling, tell us about the cause and effect of our international medical case."
"Oh." Ling Ran stood up as if he had been called by a teacher. He said, "I met some foreign doctors when I was attending the International Sports Orthopedics Conference in Shanghai. I've already operated on a few foreign athletes and sports enthusiasts in the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center …"
"What a waste." Department Director Huo sighed heavily, waved his hand, and said, "Take your time, I won't interrupt you."
Ling Ran then continued, "This time, I received replies from six doctors. They intend to send their patients to Yun Hua Hospital for surgical treatment. I replied to their exam emails and related requirements. Two patients failed the exam and expressed that they were not willing to continue the exam, so … "
"Wait, wait …" Huo Congjun's expression changed. "You rejected two foreign athletes from coming to our hospital for treatment?"
"One athlete. The other should be a non-professional amateur athlete," Ling Ran answered seriously.
"Department Director Huo, take a deep breath."
"Department Director Huo, please sit down and drink some water."
"Don't worry, Old Huo. Let's talk this out."
They were afraid that Huo Congjun would fail before the Emergency Medical Center was established.
"Ling Ran …" Huo Congjun panted for a while before he said, "You mentioned the exam before. Didn't you say that you'll take the exam after the patients are admitted to the hospital? Is there a need for a pre-admission test? "
Ling Ran thought about it and said, "It's necessary."
"Hmm … And then? What's the reason? "
"They came all the way here. If they fail the exam after they're admitted and are forced to return, isn't it even more unreasonable?" Ling Ran's words were rhetorical.
Huo Congjun was stumped by the question. He was really confused.
Doctor Zhou said by the side, "Ling Ran, show everyone the exam questions you came up with."
"Okay." Ling Ran turned in front of the computer and opened the exam questions in the email.
Huo Congjun and the others subconsciously moved closer.
As expected, they were all very simple questions.
[Achilles tendon repair surgery can remove the fixation after three weeks, correct or incorrect?]
[Achilles tendon repair surgery requires strict bed rest after the surgery, correct or incorrect?]
[Achilles tendon repair surgery requires painkillers when the pain is severe, correct or incorrect?]
The English questions were slightly difficult to read, but they were not considered difficult.
Huo Congjun roughly looked at the questions and frowned. "How could someone not be able to answer such questions?"
Doctor Zhou also said, "Can't you just fill in all the answers with yes?"
Ling Ran nodded.
"So, there are two athletes who did not even answer such questions correctly? Do they not understand English? "Huo Congjun asked.
"Their attending physician translated for them."
"Then why can't they answer it?"
Ling Ran said, "The attending physician's feedback is that they are probably unwilling to abide by the hospital's rules and regulations. They think that it is a personal restriction …"
"Can I see your emails?" Huo Congjun was worried that Ling Ran might have said something wrong.
Ling Ran then showed them the emails they exchanged.
Huo Congjun quietly read it, stood up, and thought for a moment before he said, "I think we can implement the patient examination system well."
"Yes, people who do not abide by the doctor's advice will only ruin the hospital's reputation, and we even have to pay for it."
"It'll be even worse if they are sued. They can forget about promoting their brand in the future."
"As expected, it's better to have a strict person like Doctor Ling in the international market!"
Ling Ran quietly listened to everyone's praises. For him, the scene in front of him was really child's play. The highest number of compliments, praises, and flattery he received was at the Great Hall of the People … At that time, thousands of people participated in the child star selection. Ling Ran received a record-breaking applause when he appeared, another record-breaking applause in the middle of his performance, and another record-breaking applause at the end. In the end, when Ling Ran announced his withdrawal from the selection, he received several times more applause.
In comparison, the praises from more than ten doctors in a small office in front of him were really not magnanimous enough.
The next day.
The first athlete from Kenya arrived at Yun Hua Hospital.
Huo Congjun held a low-key but profound promotion. Ten chief physicians and hospital leaders who were selected rushed into the largest Operating Theater 1 to watch Ling Ran's Achilles tendon repair technique on a foreign patient.
Unlike the hospitals in Shanghai, which often obtained foreign human bodies for cutting, there were not many foreigners in Yun Hua Hospital, and the number of foreign patients who were willing to stay in Yun Hua Hospital was especially low.
Of course, this did not include the various Vietnamese and Burmese pregnant women. They did not have identity cards, and they only came to the hospital when their due dates were near. They did not have China's medical insurance, and they could not prove that they were foreigners. If they did, they would only be deported, so both the doctors and the patients pretended not to know.
No matter what, for the Emergency Department of Yun Hua Hospital, the Kenyan athlete was a very good gimmick. It was more meaningful than the Vietnamese bride.
The hospital leaders were also very optimistic about the subject that Huo Congjun found. Only the director of the Orthopedics Department was slightly unhappy. But it was just pure unhappiness.
The Orthopedics Department of Yun Hua Hospital had long given up on Achilles tendon repair. If it were not for the fact that the patient's face was involved, they would not even bother to perform such a small surgery. As for sports medicine, it was a little difficult.
A cameraman from Changxi Province Television Center was also invited over to record this exciting and epoch-defining scene.
The cameraman set up the camera a little lazily and watched the doctor use the instruments to gently trim the plastic sheet covering the camera to form a frame. He already felt extremely bored.
This was an extremely important moment for the Emergency Department of Yun Hua Hospital, but it was obviously nothing for Changxi Province. If it were not for his personal relationship, he would not have come at all.
The cameraman adjusted the machine, took out the camera, and said, "When it's an important moment, remind me."
"No problem." Department Director Lei of the Medical Affairs Department paid more attention to the reporter than Huo Congjun. He winked at a few department directors to avoid missing the opportunity.
"Are you ready?" Ling Ran crossed his arms in front of his chest and entered the operating theater.
"Yes, we can start the surgery." Ma Yanlin and Yu Yuan appeared as the first and second assistants respectively. Both of them chose Achilles tendon repair as their main focus, so they took over all the assistant positions for Achilles tendon repair.
Ling Ran nodded and asked the nurse to help him put on a sterile surgical gown before he stood in front of the operating table.
The height of the operating table had been adjusted according to his habits, and the tray was full of surgical instruments.
"Let's start the surgery now." Ling Ran grabbed a pen and drew a line on the patient's leg. Then, he grabbed the scalpel.
The scalpel shone, and it looked like a divine weapon.
Ling Ran focused on the patient's leg, and his eyes shone like stars.
The cameraman was so shocked that he trembled. His fingers trembled as he held the DSLR camera hanging around his neck. He pressed the shutter, and a series of clicking sounds could be heard. He even mumbled in a tone that others could not understand, "Handsome, handsome, handsome, handsome …"
He was so nervous, just like when he was young, he went to a safari and photographed a male deer mating for the first time.
"Um … it's not an important moment yet." Although Department Director Lei had left the operating table for a while, he still had basic judgment.
The cameraman did not even look at him and continued to snap the shutter countless times. He had been a photojournalist for many years, and he also had basic judgment.
