“Doctor Felix, do you feel that the equipment is satisfactory?”
“Are you used to the equipment?”
“How is the cooperation of the young doctors on our side? Their English may not be very good, right?”
The director left the hospital and went to the operating theater. Naturally, he was full of greetings, and he was still using standard American English.
When he hid in the meeting room to watch the live broadcast, he already had a full understanding of Felix and Karen. Now that he had come out to meet them, he naturally had higher expectations.
Asking the two of them to teach young doctors was only a basic requirement. If he could maintain a semi-official or even personal relationship with the Cleveland Heart Center, that would be even better.
For a top local hospital like Yun Hua Hospital, whether they could get in touch with the top hospitals in the world, especially their specialties, was the key to getting to the next level.
It was very difficult for them to grow bigger than the leftovers from those super hospitals in Beijing.
Felix did not seem to mind. He was performing the surgery, he said casually, “Yun hua hospital’s conditions are good. I’ve been to many places with terrible conditions, but it doesn’t affect the operation. It doesn’t even affect the success rate of the surgery. “Many people think that heart surgery requires a lot of very high requirements, but in fact, they don’t. “The Argentinian is an example, right?”
The hospital director felt a little helpless when he was compared to places with terrible conditions, he also said a little self-deprecating, “Our Heart Center hasn’t been updated for some time. Next, we will consider introducing equipment and instruments in this area…”
“Your heart surgery department is not a Heart Center.”Felix shook his head and smiled. “I don’t know how much it will cost to rebuild a heart center. In short, it will be very high. Moreover, there must be a large amount of expenditure every year. It is unlikely that you will even have Ling ran…”
The hospital director thought to himself, ‘you are not tactful at all.’.
However, compared to the frankness of the Chinese, the hospital director was more receptive to the frankness of the Americans. He laughed out loud, then, he said, “At least we have Ling ran. “Moreover, we also have many young doctors like Ling ran. “If we send them to the Cleveland Heart Center to study for a period of time, they might be able to become the backbone doctors of our hospital’s heart surgery department in the future.”
When he said this, most of the young doctors in the operating theater looked at Felix with burning eyes.
Those who had not seen the past were also remembered by the director. This meant that they were children who did not understand English very well. It would be too hard for them to study in the United States. Most of them would not be able to become the backbone doctors of the future. If they were not careful, they might not even have a future.
Felix also understood the director’s voice-over. The director used the American style to emphasize what he said.
Felix thought for a moment, then looked at the director and said, “I heard that the Chinese heart surgery department is losing money.”
“It can’t be forever losing money. “The Chinese people always need to have heart surgery. Moreover, once we become a hospital for the head, the number of surgeries we can attract will also increase by a large margin.”The director was full of confidence, he then said, “China’s economy is developing very fast. Oh right, when we have time these two days, we have arranged a visiting program…”
“I just want to watch Doctor Ling’s surgery.”Felix did not seem to be interested in visiting at all. After saying this, after a long while, he said, “Moreover, I’m pessimistic about the development of the heart surgery department in China.”
“Huh?”
“The development of cardiac surgery does require a good economy, but the relationship between them…”Felix shrugged and did not make any more conclusions, he said directly, “For example, the number of patients with cardiac malformations in children is more necessary in the poorer and more backward places. Because of the screening during pregnancy, a large number of related diseases have been eliminated…”
“Then we will go to the poor and backward places to perform surgeries. China is far from the level of all developed countries.”The hospital director was immediately enlightened.
Felix was stunned. “Then you will continue to lose money.”
“We can afford to lose money,”the hospital director replied calmly. At the same time, he made a similar decision in his heart.
To be a hospital that made money or a hospital that did not make money was always a topic of suspense for a hospital manager.
However, as the director of a hospital, he really had the right to choose whether a hospital earned money or not in China today.
Moreover, he had a good reason for any choice.
His finances had long been free, and he did not have many thoughts about his official career. The internal personnel relationship in the hospital was also information that he was very familiar with..
Under such circumstances, unless a higher-up department was involved, he had a lot of administrative means and could make political choices.
Especially on the premise that he did not randomly come up with political slogans.
Felix was a little surprised by the director’s straightforwardness. The hospital directors in the United States were not willing to talk about losing money easily.
“Cleveland has a lot of places for advanced doctors from all over the world. If you’re interested, you can fight for it. I can also help you with your tutoring.”Felix was relieved, and he was willing to give up some precious time.
The hospital director immediately thanked him. “That’s enough. That’s all we want. Thank you, Mr. Felix.”
Of course, he had more requests, but he was not in a hurry to bring them up.
Felix became happy as well. He sped up a little and said, “I’m almost at the fixed position. What was Ling ran’s previous position like?”
Felix moved his body slightly. He performed the surgery here because he wanted to learn Ling ran’s skills. It was too detailed and complicated, and he could not do it. It would not be a problem for him to copy it.
The hospital director chuckled and made way for him. He watched as Felix and the others tried their best to imitate Ling ran under the reminder of the video and his assistant. He did not say anything else.
Felix’s surgery was done very slowly. Sometimes, he would have to stop and think about it before he could start operating again. Even so, there was not a single person missing in Felix’s operating theater.
As one of the world’s top heart surgeons, Felix’s skills were much better than department director Kang’s and the others. His brand name was even more powerful. Even if he explained that he was learning Ling Ran’s skills.., there were still too many doctors who came to watch.
As the saying went, the more you know, the stronger the fear in your heart. Only people who could not even draw a still life would despise oil paintings. Only people who could not even write properly with a pen would lash out at cursive script. Only people who barely graduated from three books would look down on the Cleveland Heart Center, only people who barely graduated from three books would look down on the Cleveland Heart Center.
If humans were considered as a group of products, a heart surgeon like Felix was definitely a product other than Six Sigma. He was a data point with a huge standard deviation.
Meanwhile, the doctors in the heart surgery department of Yun Hua Hospital already knew that they were within the range of the curve.
However, there was still a chance for them to advance in the curve when they watched the surgeries of doctors like Felix.
The hospital director quietly waited for Felix to finish the entire surgery before he invited him to dinner.
Felix rejected him without hesitation and said, “I want to watch Doctor Ling’s surgery.”
After he said that, he took off his surgical gown and prepared to leave.
Department director Lei, who was beside him, quickly said, “Doctor Felix, Doctor Ling is resting today.”
“That’s impossible.”Felix smiled. “I’ve watched Doctor Ling perform surgeries for a few days now. He doesn’t rest at all.”
Felix was not surprised by Ling ran’s desperate actions. If Ling Ran’s skills were so strong, how could he have done it if he did not put in a long period of effort? Moreover, it was normal for young doctors to be desperate in hospitals in the United States. There were plenty of doctors who worked 110 to 130 hours a week, so much so that various unions urged them to issue a restraining order.
Department director Lei could only say helplessly, “The three of you have performed so many surgeries in a row over the past few days. The ICU and the intensive care unit are all full. Even if Doctor Ling wants to perform surgeries, he won’t have any beds left.”
In fact, even without Felix and Karen, these few days were enough for Ling ran to fill up all the hospital beds. According to the normal procedure, he could have gone out to perform freelance surgeries at this time. However, even if the entire hospital knew about this, department director Lei did not dare to lose his obedience.
Felix understood, but a disappointed expression flashed across his face. He said, “I want to discuss the medical records for the past few days with Doctor Ling.”
He was naturally not interested in the director’s dinner invitation.
Department director Lei and the others could not stop him. They followed behind Felix, and then, they saw Felix Blocking Ling ran in the waiting room.
“Doctor Ling, do you have time to discuss the case?”Felix’s attitude was so pious that he looked like an over-aged primary school student.
“Is there a problem?”Ling ran sat and put on his shoes. He raised his head and looked at Felix.
A young intern nurse could not hold it in any longer. She rushed to Ling ran’s side with a whoosh and squatted as high as him. She said, “I’ll help you tie your shoelaces.”
“Take her away!”An older nurse who passed by waved her hand, and a few people went forward and dragged the young intern nurse away.
Felix heaved a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, “There’s no problem with the surgery, but I have some ideas that I want to share with you.”
“I’m going home now. If you want to talk, you can take a car with me.”Ling ran nodded and agreed. He still gave a plan that did not waste time.
Felix quickly agreed and walked to Ling ran. He stopped a little cautiously and maintained a relatively safe distance before he followed Ling ran.
The people present watched the two leave and discussed among themselves:
“This Felix is actually quite stylish. He should be quite rich too.”
“It’s quite good to look at him alone.”
“Yeah, Doctor Ling thinks highly of me… Eh, they’re going out together at this time. They’re going to have a meal together, right? And they’re going home for a meal. This… doesn’t conform to the group rules, right?”
“Yeah, even if they’re men… I heard that foreign men are all perverts! We should follow them and protect Doctor Ling.”
“Are we going to lower groove clinic? Aiya, I’ve wanted to go for a long time.”
A few nurses disappeared as they discussed among themselves. However, the director’s expression changed slightly. He muttered to himself, “Right, Ling ran’s family even opened a clinic.”
