Back to 1999: From operating surgeons to becoming a top doctor

"I found it."

Faced with the inquiry, Xiao Chenguang said truthfully.

This kind of thing cannot be concealed.

There were so many people present at the time, and they all heard the conversation between Dean Li and them.

In fact, Xiao Chenguang thought that Wang Jingang would ask, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

Looking at the little old man who was performing surgery on the stage, Xiao Chenguang vaguely felt guilty.

During this period, Lao Wang's sincere efforts for him were all real.

But for some things, Xiao Chenguang had set higher goals a long time ago and needed to achieve them.

The atmosphere was a bit dull. Just when Xiao Chenguang was about to say something, Wang Jingang nodded with satisfaction after hearing the answer.

"It's good that you found it."

"???"

This made Xiao Chenguang unable to deal with it.

I thought that Wang Jingang would say something to retain him, so that he would continue to contribute to the general surgery department and cultivate talents.

During this period, everyone has seen Lao Wang's efforts for the department.

But now, what is Old Wang doing?

"I've said before that I won't use emotional cards to restrict you to the department." (Refer to Chapter 39)

"If one day you have a higher platform, better development, and choose to leave, I won't stop you."

"After all, as a doctor, as long as you can help patients relieve their pain, it doesn't matter where you see a doctor."

After Wang Jingang sutured the small intestine, he covered it with warm saline gauze, squinted his eyes, and carefully checked whether the wounded had intestinal fistula.

Looking at the old man who was over 50 years old, he still insisted on performing surgery on the stage.

Xiao Chenguang had an indescribable feeling.

"Xiao Xiao, help me check again, this man is old, his eyes are easily blurred, and sometimes he sees things blurry."

Straightening up, Wang Jingang vaguely heard the lumbar spine creaking.

Recalling that when he first came to Shengli Hospital, he followed the old director and performed surgery all day long.

It didn't seem to feel very tired.

But now, I need to take a break in the middle of just one operation. To be honest, I am really old and can't do it anymore.

He looked at Xiao Chenguang who was checking the intestinal anastomosis. Every move was full of energy.

He looked like him back then.

Especially after the emergency treatment of a large number of injured people, Wang Jingang discovered one thing.

His previous impression of Xiao Chenguang was still at the stage of good medical skills and strong technology.

It can be said that no one can beat him in the treatment of a single patient.

But now, a major car accident and the treatment of multiple injured people have completely refreshed Wang Jingang's cognition.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chenguang's organizational ability and on-the-spot response ability are even more powerful.

This is a natural leader.

It's really a waste of talent to be just a small doctor who performs surgery.

Perhaps, it's time to let go...

After the operation, Wang Jingang found Xiao Chenguang after transferring the patient back to the ward.

"Xiao Xiao, actually Dean Li has already talked to me."

"About the director of the emergency department?"

Xiao Chenguang looked up and looked at Wang Jingang in surprise.

As a veteran, Xiao Chenguang knew the process of appointment very well.

Whether it was a transfer or appointment, the hospital needed to ask the director's opinion first.

After all, the county magistrate was not as good as the current manager. Before the appointment was made in the hospital, no discordant voices were allowed.

If even the director of the department strongly opposed it, it would be unlikely to succeed.

So in the department, the director's right to speak was very important, and it was not an exaggeration to compare him to a local emperor.

This is why many doctors are trying their best to be the director of the department.

After all, the power is there.

"Yes and no."

Wang Jingang suddenly laughed.

Xiao Chenguang was startled. He seemed to see some cunning in Wang Jingang's eyes.

What's going on?

He suddenly felt like he was hooked, and the emotion and admiration that had just risen up were hammered to the ground.

Seeing Xiao Chenguang was a little dazed, Wang Jingang continued.

"You also know that the hospital is investigating the candidate for the director of general surgery some time ago."

"I have a long history and have been on the investigation list."

"Today, Dean Li came to me to discuss this matter, and of course, it is also about your bid for the director of the emergency department."

This sentence contains a lot of information. Xiao Chenguang was stunned for a long time before he reacted.

"Director, you are about to be promoted to the director of general surgery?"

Xiao Chenguang felt that this matter had a big impact on him.

The director of general surgery is responsible for assisting the hospital in managing the entire surgical system. It can be said that he has half a foot in the category of senior leaders.

If Shengli Hospital develops in the future and builds a surgical building, Wang Jingang will be the director of the surgical hospital.

But in this case, how should the general surgery department be managed?

Xiao Chenguang suddenly raised his head, with disbelief in his eyes.

This old Wang, can't be...

Sure enough, when Xiao Chenguang raised his head, Wang Jingang had already spoken.

"Xiao Xiao, general surgery will all depend on you in the future."

Xiao Chenguang was struck by lightning when these words came out.

Oh my god, Wang Jingang is planning to retreat in order to advance.

Xiao Chenguang's appointment as deputy director of general surgery has been made. At this time, if Lao Wang is promoted to director of general surgery.

He will temporarily leave the clinic because of the overall planning of the entire surgical system.

Then the management of general surgery will naturally be handed over to Xiao Chenguang, who has just been promoted to deputy director.

"Director, is this okay?"

"Of course, don't worry, Xiao Xiao, Dean Li said that the director of the emergency department is also yours."

"Because the procedures for appointing department directors are cumbersome, it may take some time, so you are allowed to manage general surgery first and adapt to the functions of department directors in advance."

At this point, Wang Jingang was filled with emotion.

In the final analysis, his position as director of general surgery is thanks to Xiao Chenguang.

If it weren't for his participation, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so smooth now.

After all, the director came to talk in person just to make room for Xiao Chenguang. Such a great opportunity is hard to come by.

Being the director of both the general surgery department and the emergency department, even Xiao Chenguang was a little surprised.

Although there are precedents for this kind of thing in some hospitals, they are all temporary deployments, or part-time jobs.

For example, the deputy director of the medical department is also the director of the general surgery department.

The deputy director of the business department is also the director of the general surgery department, etc.

It is not common for people like Xiao Chenguang to actually control two departments across disciplines.

"Director, can I ask if there has been such a precedent in our Shengli Hospital before?"

"No."

Wang Jingang continued with a smile: "Not only that, people of your age are the department director, and they are also the directors of two departments. Not to mention in our hospital, I think it has set a precedent in the entire Yingcheng and even the provincial capital."

"However, those who are capable should work harder. I believe you can do it, Xiao Xiao."

"I will work hard..."

Xiao Chenguang felt a bit amused when he heard this.

I originally thought that Lao Wang's emotional words were a prelude to his departure.

But I never expected that with just a few words, Lao Wang would become a hands-off boss, and even handed over the entire general surgery department to him.

This letting go is really thorough...
