Surprisingly, his conversation with Du Fancheng had indeed sparked many new ideas. He was very happy during dinner and spent the rest of the evening lost in thought.
Later that night, he visited Yanyan's ward again. The rash on her body had significantly improved. It wouldn't be long before she could have the tube removed and switch to oral dication. This was the advantage of symptomatic treatnt; the effects were very clear after administering the drugs directly.
After a good night's sleep, he had breakfast with Xu Yino and Miao Rui the next morning, and then cheerfully "pushed" them both into the "fire pit."
"Comrade Liu Yiqing, please co over."
After returning to the Ergency Center's lobby, Liu Banxia beckoned.
"Teacher Liu, what's up?" Liu Yiqing skipped over.
"You seem to be in a very good mood. What were you and Qiaoqiao up to yesterday?" Liu Banxia asked, feigning seriousness.
"You can ask your wife, can't you? Isn't it just a phone call away?" Liu Yiqing also asked with a straight face.
"Oh, co on, isn't she busy? Just tell . I always feel like Qiaoqiao is hiding sothing from . Is she planning to give a gift or sothing?" Liu Banxia asked.
"No, I don't think so? I don't know. We just had fun eating and drinking with Qiaoqiao, and by the way, helped Tang Dou set up the delivery room and stuff," Liu Yiqing said.
"Teacher Liu, I think even if Qiaoqiao *is* preparing a surprise for you, shouldn't you not know in advance? Otherwise, wouldn't her efforts be wasted?"
"Although you make a lot of sense, I'm still very curious. Anyway, I won't tornt you anymore. Go work hard," Liu Banxia said.
"Okay." Liu Yiqing responded and scampered off.
She also breathed a sigh of relief. Teacher Liu's instincts were too sharp; how did he know Qiaoqiao was planning a big surprise for him?
Liu Banxia was also mulling it over. Liu Yiqing had seed a bit guilty; Qiaoqiao really might be planning sothing big behind his back. Was she secretly planning to buy a house? But buying a house would require him, wouldn't it? Could she do it without him? Without his signature and all that? It wasn't his fault for wondering; he genuinely didn't know the process. He'd never bought a house in his life.
"Teacher Wang, co over here. I need to discuss sothing with you." Seeing that Wang Chao had finished with a patient, Liu Banxia called out again.
"You know?" Wang Chao asked in surprise as he hurried over.
"What do you think? Our policy has always been: leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist," Liu Banxia said calmly.
"That can't be right. The news shouldn't have spread yet," Wang Chao muttered.
"What's wrong? Is there really sothing going on?" Liu Banxia felt a little unsettled.
Wang Chao rolled his eyes. "Were you trying to trick ? You're terrible. What do you want?"
"Let talk about this first; it's definitely work-related. Regarding fecal transplantation, what are your plans exactly?" Liu Banxia asked.
"Anyway, in my opinion, although this patient hasn't been completely cured yet, the chances of recovery are high. Once the news gets out, patients with relevant indications will definitely co seeking treatnt."
"Then the problem arises: if we accept them, it will involve more manpower and resources. If we don't, it's tantamount to inflicting a secondary injury on the patients."
"So, what will you do then? After all, this concerns you directly, so I want to hear your thoughts first before I submit the materials to the director."
"Huh… you're already considering this? Did the director ask?" Wang Chao asked.
Liu Banxia shook his head. "I brought it up with the director yesterday, and he asked to talk to you. He was worried you wouldn't feel comfortable speaking your mind."
"On this matter, our Ergency Center doesn't have any specific quotas or tasks. It all depends on your inclination. After all, you initiated this, so we have to respect your opinion."
"Sigh... President Liu, what if I told you I still haven't made up my mind? What are your thoughts?" Wang Chao sighed.
"That's perfectly normal. That's why I'm talking to you today, to give you a heads-up. Ultimately, it's up to you; follow your own inclinations," Liu Banxia said.
This wasn't an attempt to fool Wang Chao; his personal opinion would genuinely be fully respected in this matter. Whether or not he wanted to lead this project, his consent was necessary. They usually got along very well, and this matter was related to Wang Chao's future career developnt, so it had to be considered carefully.
"President Liu, you're full of bright ideas. Help think this through, will you?" Wang Chao said after so thought.
Liu Banxia rolled his eyes. "What do you an, 'full of bright ideas'? I call it being resourceful and strategic. If you don't offer any of your own thoughts, how am I supposed to help you analyze?"
"It's precisely because I'm hesitating and still considering it that I'm asking you to help analyze," Wang Chao said.
"Sigh... if you want my opinion, I think you can fully take charge of this project, the kind that gets officially established," Liu Banxia said.
"I don't need to elaborate on the benefits; you're well aware of those. As for the downsides, it would certainly take up so of your ti in general surgery, but not necessarily a huge amount."
"Patients needing fecal transplants will definitely register under your na. Most of it involves lab tests, right? So you'll still be able to participate in admissions at the Ergency Center."
"However, it's still two separate jobs, and you'll need to set up a dedicated ward. Plus, assembling the dical team—these are all things you'll need to manage."
"It will be very demanding in the initial stages. Although the Ergency Center seems profitable now, it's because current expenses aren't particularly high. Later, when all departnts are fully staffed, the monthly salary expenses alone will be a significant amount."
"But ultimately, it's up to you and what you think. This therapy is still in an exploratory phase, so you'll undoubtedly face many challenges."
"Alright, I've said what I needed to say. Now, isn't it your turn? Any explosive news? I haven't heard much these past couple of days."
Wang Chao glanced at him. "The upcoming deputy director positions might be filled through a competitive selection process. It's already been discussed in the hospital committee eting."
"Isn't that normal? After all, it's a key position. Have they decided how many will be appointed?" Liu Banxia asked.
Wang Chao held up two fingers. "Only two. One overseeing dical operations, and the other managing the rest. However, there might be three candidates competing."
"aning, besides you and Old Chen, there's a third person. This individual is a chief physician in plastic surgery, recruited from outside, apparently with Vice Director Shen pulling the strings."
Liu Banxia frowned. A chief physician from plastic surgery carried a lot of weight. What about him? At best, he'd only just have secured his attending physician contract by then. If it weren't for his status as Zhou Shuwen's disciple, he wouldn't even be qualified to be involved in this, rely a spectator eating lon seeds on the sidelines.
"Apparently, the condition Vice Director Shen put forward was that he must be given a deputy director position, otherwise he wouldn't co," Wang Chao added.
"However, our Chief Director and the director have different opinions on this, which is why the idea of a competitive selection ca up. As for whether they'll ultimately appoint three deputy directors, that's probably still under discussion."
"After all, our Ergency Center isn't that large yet. Appointing three deputy directors directly doesn't seem quite right."
"Although the Chief Director intends to groom you, not everyone will support you. Especially since Vice Director Shen has brought in such a heavyweight. To quote my Old GrandMaster, she actually thinks it would be better for you to follow the hospital's standard promotion track."
"The work is pretty much the sa anyway, assisting our director. And that path offers a position with no less prestige and a broader scope of experience."
"The only downside is that you wouldn't be able to ride the coattails of the Ergency Center's upgrade. Our Ergency Center's upgrade is just a matter of ti. No matter how the assessnt goes, as long as the mandatory criteria are t, it's a done deal."
"Sigh... now I understand why the director seed a bit tired yesterday. He said a few things to then, but I didn't think much of it at the ti," Liu Banxia sighed.
"Personally, whether or not I get promoted to deputy director, I don't really care that much. Even as a regular attending physician, without any other titles, shouldn't I still be helping the director?"
"It's natural for a disciple to shoulder burdens for their master. The director has given so many opportunities and so much help; I really shouldn't let him worry about this because of ."
"Is that really what you think?" Wang Chao asked, smiling.
"Yes, that's exactly what I think. You know my situation better than anyone. You could say I'm only still doing this job out of interest," Liu Banxia said frankly.
"Unfortunately, not everyone thinks that way. This deputy director position is very important, you know," Wang Chao said.
"There's a lot involved here. Many people aren't happy with the Chief Director treating the Second Hospital as his personal fiefdom. The Ergency Center is too prominent nowadays, so it naturally attracts a lot of attention."
"And you're the one being championed by both the Chief Director and the director, so you naturally draw even more scrutiny. That's why things have turned out this way," Wang Chao continued.
Hearing Wang Chao's words, Liu Banxia was stunned. He hadn't expected such intricate politics. Why did the world have to be so complicated? Wouldn't it be better if life were simpler?
"The director probably didn't tell you because he didn't want to distract you. But with things as they are now, you have no choice but to give it your all, right?" Wang Chao continued.
"People often say, 'In the martial world, your fate is not your own to decide.' Whether you like it or not, you've already been labeled. Your work in teaching and training has beco even more crucial now."
Liu Banxia nodded. Wang Chao was right.
Now, this was no longer a matter of whether he was willing or not. He was committed to doing this job well anyway; now he just had to do it even better.
