Chapter 520: Our Temple Is Too Small
At the Provincial Capital in the hospital attached to the dical University and at the Director’s office.
Chief Lin of the dical Affairs Departnt was trying to coax him.
“Director, this young doctor in Sea City is really impressive.” Chief Lin said with a sad face. “The preferential policies that our hospital has issued to invite more talents in the past are really not enough.”
“What do you an by not enough?” The director responded angrily, “What do the housing prices look like nowadays? A doctor who hasn’t even advanced to deputy director and you want to give him a 100-square-ter house in the Provincial Capital! What are you thinking!?”
Chief Lin felt bitter in his heart but could not say anything.
“Director, Dr. Zheng casually helped us with a big favor. This kind of talent...”
“Old Lin, don’t think so much about stuff like this.” The director sat on his reclining chair and crossed his legs as he said, “He’s not the only one who needs to be considered. If we give an attending physician such good conditions, what will happen to the others? Throughout the years, we haven’t been able to keep our own doctoral students. It’s already a stroke of luck for a junior attending physician who graduated from an undergraduate program to be able to get in. Do you still want a house?”
Chief Lin really had nothing to say.
Normally speaking, what the Director said was right.
Once he relented, graduate students and doctoral students who graduated from the Provincial dical University would plead for more opportunities and benefit, quoting Zheng Ren as an example.
See, even a small attending physician from Sea City can enter this hospital, so why can a doctor hailing from generations of doctors not be able to do the sa?
Such words would simply wear down one’s ears.
Chief Lin felt helpless and he refuted helplessly a few tis. In the end, he could only walk out of the Director’s office resentfully.
Perhaps, a spot in the Provincial Capital’s interventional departnt would be enough?
He had expectations in his heart.
As the dical Services Chief, personnel matters had nothing to do with him. He did not personally know Zheng Ren.
He only cherished talents and felt that it was a pity for such a promising young doctor to stay in Sea City.
That was all he could do to redy the situation, Chief Lin thought to himself.
He had not planned to give Zheng Ren a house in the Provincial Capital. This condition was only a bargaining chip.
It would not be difficult for him to get him a spot if he rejected it.
However, Zheng Ren’s education was not considered of a high enough quality and he was also very young. Should he lead a group? Or would he need to be under an expert doctor’s tutelage for a few years?
Chief Lin walked out of the office building, a smug smile appearing on his face.
He wanted to poach Dr. Zheng over. Not only would he repay the favor he had done for him, but he would also guarantee him a spot in the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital dical University.
It was the best of both worlds.
Chief Lin was very happy. It would all be worth it.
He fished out his phone and dialed a number.
“Old Gao, I just ca out of the Director’s office.
“No, I have so good news to tell you. Guess what I went to do?
“You only know how to perform surgeries. Were you stunned after watching Teacher Zheng’s video?
“Yes, I just finished talking to the Director and asked if he could be added as a staff mber. Yes! A staff mber. It’s official!
“What?
“Wait a mont, I’ll go to your place.”
After saying that, Chief Lin hung up the phone.
The smug expression on his face just now disappeared without a trace.
Was it not enough if he was a staff mber that was able to enter the Provincial Capital’s faculty of dicine? What was going on in Old Gao’s mind!
Soon, Chief Lin rushed over to the intervention departnt and found Gao Shaojie who was studying the video.
“Gao, did you not understand what I said?” Chief Lin asked him.
“Chief Lin, I know you want to poach Teacher Zheng.” Gao Shaojie’s eyes were dark. He stayed up all night studying the ‘course’ that was Zheng Ren’s TIPS surgery recorded on his phone.
It was as if he had returned to a ti when he was still a teenager, fighting for his future and his ideals.
“But...” Gao Shaojie smiled bitterly. “Chief Lin, it’s just as a staff mber. I don’t think it’s enough.”
“Huh?” Chief Lin was confused.
“I’m not sure about the details but it’s just a feeling.” Gao Shaojie was very careful not to ntion that Zheng Ren had published a paper and was going to apply for the Nobel Prize in dicine.
What if Zheng Ren agreed?
He only cared about surgery and academics. If he spent too much ti on other things, it would make him ‘impure’.
“Working at the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital dical University and changing your status in life isn’t enough?” Chief Lin was puzzled.
However, looking at Gao Shaojie’s expression, it did not seem like the other man was joking with him.
“Our temple is too small. I’m afraid it won’t be able to accommodate a Bodhisattva as big as Teacher Zheng,” Gao Shaojie said as he pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose.
Speechless, Chief Lin felt as if countless alpacas were running around in his mind.
Was Old Gao joking with him?
The ‘temple’ of the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital dical University was small, but Sea City General Hospital was considered big?
That was utter bullsh*t!
“Chief Lin, it just so happens that I’m going to Sea City. Do you have ti? I suggest that you have a face-to-face talk with Teacher Zheng on such matters,” Gao Shaojie said.
Chief Lin was displeased before he realized that Old Gao seed to be trying to express sothing to him.
He was also very curious that a young man and a middle-aged scholar like Gao Shaojie could co up with a new surgical thod even though he did not know what TIPS surgery was.
Dr. Zheng was definitely not soone simple.
Should he follow him to Sea City?
He had countless things to do on his side there were his responsibilities. It was really difficult to leave.
Chief Lin thought about it for a few seconds and said, “You go first. I’ll find ti to go to Sea City later on my own.”
“Thank you, Chief Lin.” Gao Shaojie expressed his gratitude sincerely.
Chief Lin waved his hand. “It’s nothing.”
He had already expressed his sincerity. Why was it still not enough?

In Sea City, Zheng Ren did not know that so many people were busy trying to get him to work for them.
He changed his clothes and sent a WeChat ssage to Xie Yiren. After making an appointnt for dinner, he returned to the ergency ward.
The pre-operation instructions of the three patients were typed out one by one. It was only after Zheng Ren was done did he receive a call from the departnt to get the patient’s family mbers to co and sign the form for him.
The young female patient in the ergency ward had a very intelligent fiancé who was also a very good doctor.
He knew all the complications such as nausea, vomiting, pain, and fever that would possibly occur after the liver cancer interventional surgery. He had even studied less common complications such as diarrhea and flatulence.
He also asked Zheng Ren if the Traditional Chinese dicine Departnt in Sea City General Hospital would be able to perform acupuncture to solve such problems. (Note 1)
It seed that this young man did not only have a good mory, but he also had a preliminary understanding and had done research on the disease as a whole.
This so-called dical treatnt made sense to him.
Many patients usually had a deep understanding of their disease, which put most interns to sha.
Zheng Ren answered and gave details explanations for all his questions in the half an hour tifra until the next patient’s family mbers arrived at the doctor’s office in the ergency ward. It was only during their arrival that he reluctantly left Zheng Ren alone.

Note 1: Chinese dicine does make sense. Many patients with liver cancer will experience abdominal distension after liver cancer intervention. There has been scientific research done on this in collaboration with the Chinese dicine Departnt. Aiming at abdominal distension after the operation, Chinese dicine will use acupuncture to solve these issues. Its effectiveness is not too bad.
