Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital

Chapter 303: Reinforcing the Team—An Old Acquaintance Li Yang


"I have no issues on my end."

Zhao Heng thought for a moment. Since Liu Shangming, as the hospital director, had already said so, and Li Yang was indeed an outstanding and highly experienced attending physician, he felt there was no need to refuse. Besides, his department did need such an experienced senior doctor for handling critical conditions.

Li Yang had been in the emergency department for many years, and was also greatly nurtured by Song Siming. Naturally, there was no question about his skills and professionalism.

However, Zhao Heng still found it strange that such a talented person would leave the emergency department for the inpatient department.

Because Zhao Heng knew Liu Shangming well, he wasn't someone who would forcibly arrange personnel changes, which indicated that it was either unfavorable for Li Yang to stay in the emergency department or he had expressed a similar desire. Thus, Liu Shangming was just going with the flow this time.

"Hmm, Xiao Zhao, you should go see Professor Li Hongwei later and try to start the nano-treatment for the patient as soon as possible. As for personnel, I'll talk to Director Liu in the medical department, and it will be arranged shortly."

Director Liu Shangming said to Zhao Heng.

As the director, supporting a young doctor like Zhao Heng to this extent was as much as he could do within his authority.

This also showed how much he valued Zhao Heng.

This regard even exceeded that for Li Haiyang, whom he had personally nurtured in the oncology department.

"Okay, Director."

Zhao Heng nodded again. As a young doctor, he couldn't help but feel thrilled being valued by the director, and he was no exception.

After all, being recognized by Liu Shangming, the director of the top-tier hospital in the country, and having the backing of his mentor Gao Jun, practically meant Zhao Heng could walk through Eastern Hospital unchallenged.

Nonetheless, Zhao Heng didn't actually want to be unchallenged like a crab; the biggest advantage was that many inexplicable troubles would be considerably reduced, and conditions for accomplishing things would quickly be in place, with resources far beyond what was available before.

After wrapping up their discussion, Zhao Heng and Gao Jun left the director's office together.

As soon as they left, Gao Jun, who had been silent, solemnly said to Zhao Heng, "Xiao Zhao, the director values you a lot right now, which is a good thing, but you need to be more cautious on the other hand. The director has just risen to his position, and as you know his character, he is not someone who likes to band together. So, there are many people in the hospital who are watching him and trying to get closer to him."

"Therefore, more and more people will be paying attention to you."

"Yes, I understand, teacher."

Hearing Gao Jun's words, Zhao Heng was deeply moved. From the beginning, Gao Jun had always been so supportive of him.

Moreover, Gao Jun's efforts behind the scenes were crucial to the director's recognition of him now.

"Teacher, why would Li Yang want to leave the emergency department? If he didn't want to or hadn't mentioned it to the director, the director wouldn't have forcibly transferred him from emergency, right?"

After hesitating, Zhao Heng asked with some confusion.

This question arose when the director mentioned transferring Li Yang to his department. However, Zhao Heng didn't feel it appropriate to directly ask further once the director had said not to worry.

"Xiao Zhao, I know what you're thinking. Everyone thinks that Li Yang, nurtured single-handedly by Song Siming in the emergency department, would surely be greatly favored. But Xiao Zhao, you should know Song Siming is not the director, and Li Yang doesn't receive the same treatment as Li Haiyang."

Gao Jun said meaningfully.

The implication was clear: choosing the right person to follow is crucial.

Li Yang had been with Song Siming since he was a deputy director.

But now, Song Siming had been a director for many years, while Li Yang remained in a stagnant position as an attending physician. In other departments, given Li Yang's credentials, experience, and dedication, he would have been promoted to deputy director long ago.

In a hospital department, the director's say is significant in determining whether an attending physician can become a deputy director.

To move up from attending to deputy director, the director's strong support is essential.

"No way, when I was in the operating room, I felt Director Song really relied on Dr. Li."

Hearing Gao Jun's profound words, Zhao Heng said in disbelief.

There was also an unresolved matter between him and Song Siming.

Song Siming had seen potential in Zhao Heng and had told him he was just in time as Song Siming was in need of a director's assistant, encouraging Zhao Heng to strive for it.

But everyone knew the result; at the time, Yin Lifeng had already spoken to Song Siming, and the position was destined for Yin Jian, Yin Lifeng's nephew, with Zhao Heng as a runner-up.

To put it bluntly, Song Siming had just been painting a rosy picture for Zhao Heng.

"Relying on and valuing are different. One is about utilizing human resources, the other is about genuine appreciation."

Gao Jun shook his head slightly, indicating that the difference between reliance and valuing is something new workers can't recognize, and they are often drawn to the enticing prospects leaders paint.

"I really didn't realize this."

Zhao Heng said with some emotion, reflecting on his time in the operating room, though he hadn't become Song Siming's assistant, he had gained Gao Jun's value.

It was Gao Jun's support and full help that led him step by step to his current position.

If Song Siming had assisted Li Yang the same way Gao Jun did for him, Li Yang would have long been an emergency deputy director, not stagnating for so many years, and wouldn't need to leave the emergency department and come to Zhao Heng's department now.

"Li Yang, professionally and capability-wise, is undisputable, and he's easy to get along with. You were familiar with him before, so having him in your department is excellent. I had also thought about having him help you in the department before, but Song Siming wouldn't let him go, and without Li Yang's own willingness, it was difficult to achieve. Now, with Li Yang requesting the transfer from the director himself, it's become a natural transition."

Gao Jun said.

For Zhao Heng as his sole student, his network and resources, in a way, were also Zhao Heng's.

Moreover, every achievement Zhao Heng made reflected positively on him, so he kept considering how to make Zhao Heng's current department better and better.

Gao Jun had always appreciated Li Yang's competence, and now that Li Yang himself requested a transfer, it was the perfect opportunity.

"Teacher, you think so far ahead."

Zhao Heng said with some admiration, realizing that although he had surpassed Gao Jun in technical skills, he was still far behind in understanding interpersonal and professional dynamics and had a lot more to learn.
