I Can Hear the Heart's Voice of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Chapter 42: Top-Level Design Determines Everything


Fourth Floor.

Dean's Office.

Hu Meiqiao worked later than usual today. On one hand, she had already arranged to discuss the future development of the Traditional Chinese Medicine department after work with Lu Xuan, and on the other hand, she received a resume on her phone, making her reconsider her plans to go home.

What surprised her the most was that the applicant was a graduate student from Zhijiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which made Hu Meiqiao take it very seriously.

Talents with such high educational qualifications were usually recruited by major traditional Chinese medicine institutions. The likelihood of them coming to a health center was extremely low. In recent years, apart from Lu Xuan, who was sent to the health center after offending someone, no other graduate from Zhijiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine would come to this grassroots medical institution.

In fact, they might not even give it a second glance.

Hu Meiqiao carefully reviewed the submitted resume and became more satisfied as she read through it.

A top graduate from Zhijiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, even without any experience, is undoubtedly an ideal choice as an assistant.

Although Su Kenan would be interning in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department for two months, considering the current busy situation, it was necessary to have two assistants.

However, what made Hu Meiqiao curious was why a graduate student from Zhijiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine would consider coming to the health center as an assistant.

Curiosity prompted Hu Meiqiao to pick up the phone beside her and dial the number on the resume.

Perhaps because evening had already fallen, the phone rang for a while before someone answered. A young and polite voice came from the other end:

"Hello, who is this?"

Hu Meiqiao asked with a smile, "Is this Mr. Ji Xiuwen?"

"I am Ji Xiuwen, and you are...?"

There was a hint of confusion in Ji Xiuwen's voice. If it weren't for the pleasant tone, he might have thought it was a scam call. The economic environment is getting worse, and every day the number of scam calls exceeds those from previous years.

In the past, getting a couple of scam calls a week was considered a lot.

These days, he gets at least two or three scam calls a day.

Hu Meiqiao quickly said, "My name is Hu Meiqiao, and I am the Dean of the Health Center on Qiu City Street. I saw your resume and wanted to discuss the job opportunity with you in advance."

Dean of the Qiu City Street Health Center?

Ji Xiuwen was momentarily stunned, then immediately responded respectfully, "Hello Dean Hu, I am Ji Xiuwen, you can just call me Ji."

As he spoke, Ji Xiuwen's face clearly showed surprise.

He had just submitted his resume shortly after returning, thinking the health center would at least contact him the next day, but now they reached out to him immediately, and it was the dean herself who called.

Although the dean of a health center cannot compare with those of large hospitals, reaching this position is never simple.

The position comes with authority, and overseeing many people; even district hospital doctors would find it challenging to become a dean of a health center without sufficient skills and connections.

"Then I'll take the liberty."

Hu Meiqiao laughed and said, "Ji, I've gone through your resume. To be honest, I was a little surprised, almost incredulous."

Ji Xiuwen laughed bitterly in his heart. He could imagine the surprise of Hu Meiqiao.

A graduate student from Zhijiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine going to a health center to be an assistant seems unbelievable. Even he found it a bit astonishing, let alone Dean Hu.

If he hadn't attached his diploma, Ji Xiuwen thought the resume might have been discarded without a second glance.

Why?

Who would think of going to a health center as a joke, right?

After all, if one were to go to a health center for consultations, it would be understandable. After all, in major hospitals, recently graduated Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors don't have the chance to see patients independently. Going to a health center is different, where sometimes you might even be directly in charge if the department is idle.

"Dean Hu, how should I put it? I'm in a bit of a predicament."

Ji Xiuwen thought for a moment and decided to share why he applied to the Qiu City Health Center, "When my parents initially mentioned the health center to me, I was surprised. After all, I am a graduate student from Zhijiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Wouldn't it be better to stay at the County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine?

But on second thought, my parents were right. Staying in the pharmacy at the County Hospital may offer better benefits, but I wouldn't learn real skills or accumulate clinical experience. My career might just end there.

To be honest, I don't want to spend my life dispensing medicine in the pharmacy. I heard from my mom about a skilled Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor at the health center, who has saved many people, is very capable, and besides, I heard you urgently need staff. I thought…

It's better to go to your Traditional Chinese Medicine department to gain clinical experience and skills, which is better than spending a lifetime as a pharmacist."

Upon hearing this, Hu Meiqiao sighed inwardly. It was just as she had speculated.

Nevertheless, she could understand the situation; it's the reality for Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners.

For newly graduated students, regardless of their high qualifications, in large hospitals, it's almost destined to be in the pharmacy, unless there's a family connection to become an assistant to a Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor.

After all, with so many graduates each year and just a few skilled doctors in hospitals, naturally, those with connections get ahead.
