Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital Chapter 535 - 417: The Long Road of Medical Science Populari

"Director Zhao, I’ll leave the consultant matter to you. The film crew will be coming over this afternoon, and we’ll have a eting then."

Liu Xuedong, seeing that the conversation was wrapping up, said to Zhao Heng.

It’s only because it’s Zhao Heng; otherwise, with an ordinary doctor, Liu Xuedong would just directly notify them.

"Alright."

Zhao Heng nodded. He wasn’t particularly curious about the film crew’s shoot, but since the director was Old Luo, and there was so dical knowledge dissemination involved, Zhao Heng had to take it on.

At twelve-thirty noon, in a small room on the second floor of the hospital cafeteria, Zhao Heng, Xu Man Ni, and Tian Zhen were having lunch.

Even though they were at the hospital cafeteria, there were several dishes on the table. When work wasn’t busy at noon, Zhao Heng would often go with Xu Man Ni to the small room on cafeteria’s second floor to order a few dishes for lunch.

Other doctors hardly ca here because they were too busy. Usually, they would have interns carry two at and two vegetable dishes from the cafeteria and make do with a al.

Those who were more particular about food would order their favorite takeout.

If you were doing your residency, training, or interning, a good ntor would generally bring you along to eat.

"Did the dical departnt look for you this morning?"

Taking a small bite of braised potatoes, Xu Man Ni asked Zhao Heng casually.

"Is it about the public recruitnt exam?"

With Xu Man Ni’s question, Tian Zhen curiously asked as well.

"Director Liu said a film crew for a dical drama is coming to shoot, and they want as a dical consultant."

Zhao Heng took a bite of his favorite fried eggplant and said nonchalantly.

"Huh? dical drama? Filming?"

Xu Man Ni was sowhat surprised. Recently, she’d been busy competing for the head nurse position and hadn’t paid much attention to the new happenings in the hospital.

"Yeah, it’s directed by Old Luo, the Luo Ji I told you about."

Zhao Heng finished another piece of fried eggplant and said.

"Honestly, dical dramas these days are too over-the-top. All the doctors and nurses are just left dealing with love affairs."

Xu Man Ni complained.

As a mber of the healthcare staff, every ti she accidentally watched a dical drama, she’d cringe at the portrayal of doctors and nurses enough to "dig a three-bedroom apartnt" from the awkwardness.

"Yeah, so even ss up basic dical knowledge. 9% saline solution, that’s not an infusion; it’s like brining the patient raw. These scriptwriters should at least check so dical facts when writing."

Tian Zhen agreed wholeheartedly.

As a seasoned nurse, every ti she sees nurses in dical dramas chatting at the nurse’s station, seemingly only gossiping, drinking milk tea, and snacking on seeds, she feels the urge to complain.

Chatting? Snacking on seeds? Eating snacks?

At Eastern Hospital, you’re busy to the point where even finding ti to eat is hard!

"That’s why they need a dical consultant, right?"

Zhao Heng laughed and said.

"I found it. It’s called ’Young Doctors,’ right? A Noon Eye production, directed by Luo Ji, starring Ren Cong and Zhang Li."

"Why are they actors I haven’t really heard of?"

As she ate, Xu Man Ni fiddled with her phone and quickly found information on this dical drama. Clearly, Noon Eye had already started promoting it.

"I know Zhang Li, everything under the neck is all legs, famously known as ’legs essence,’ with skin so pale it’s exaggerated."

Zhao Heng hadn’t spoken yet when Tian Zhen chid in.

"You girls also pay attention to actresses?"

Hearing Tian Zhen’s remarks, Zhao Heng asked a bit surprised.

"Girls also like to look at beauties.."

Tian Zhen said.

"Current beauty standards are really homogeneous, always talking about long legs and cold, pale skin. If you ask , a little chubbiness is best."

Zhao Heng critiqued.

As tis change, public aesthetics also evolve, yet there hasn’t been a ti like now, especially in the entertainnt industry, with so many distorted perceptions of beauty.

Take, for instance, the now-popular pointed chin, prominent jaws, and European double eyelids, prompting many girls to emulate them, even reaching a highly unhealthy, sickly beauty standard.

The first impact, also the one most detrintal to health, is the notorious ’comic waist.’

The ’comic waist’ refers to a slender waist, a pursuit that has existed since ancient tis.

In the entertainnt industry, the pursuit of a slender waist among female stars has a long history. Whether mature won of the past or new generation young girls, all find beauty in an extrely thin waist. So even resort to various diets, severely damaging their health to attain a palm-width tiny waist.

Even pregnant celebrities sotis strive for slender waists during pregnancy to maintain their figure, reaching nearly pathological levels of waist pursuit.

As for breaking ribs to achieve the tiniest waist possible on the red carpet and ending up in the hospital, that’s just a small witch against a big witch.

The second issue is the obsession with whitening.

In the entertainnt industry, regardless of gender, stars strive for a glowing white complexion on cara, applying foundation aggressively and choosing the lightest shade available.

Moreover, it isn’t just actresses; so actors do the sa, applying thick foundations to mask their less-fair skin. So even whiten themselves to such an extent that they appear as lifeless mannequins, eerily bloodless and quite creepy.
