Xu Chunliang, although he had never studied Western medicine in the past, had been at the hospital for some time and had gained some knowledge of certain medications. Alidra's scientific name is Sildenafil Citrate, which helps with erectile function. Zhou Wenbin had kept his secret well; in the past, Xu Chunliang had no idea he was so passionate about life. Looking at Zhou's complexion, it was clear he had some qi and blood deficiency. Using Western medicine to aid erectile function only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. To thoroughly improve this, traditional Chinese medicine would be necessary.
To ease the awkwardness, Zhou Wenbin quickly changed the subject: "Xiao Xu, you go ahead and get busy. I'll finish up soon. Once I'm done, you can move over." He still had a high opinion of Xu Chunliang's abilities. Since he was leaving anyway, he might as well do a favor. His office was the best in the Medical Affairs Department.
Xu Chunliang nodded. He felt uncomfortable with Zhou Wenbin around, and just then, someone from the Personnel Department came to ask him to come over.
The head of the Personnel Department, Ma Hongmei, called him to inform him of a personnel change. The hospital leadership, considering the busy workload of the Medical Affairs Department, had decided to add two new staff members. One was named Yang Zhenggang, 32 years old, a former chief technician in the Radiology Department. He was known for being a troublemaker and had conflicts with almost all his colleagues in the Radiology Department. Two months ago, he was put on hold due to a patient complaint. The Radiology Department sent him to the Personnel Department, refusing to take him back. Yang Zhenggang himself did not want to return to taking X-rays. Through connections, the hospital assigned him to the Medical Affairs Department.
The other was Dr. Huang Lide, a 43-year-old attending physician in the Orthopedic Department. He had applied for a deputy senior title three times but failed each time. Seeing his juniors surpass him in the department, he knew he had no future there. More importantly, his surgical skills were poor, and he was marginalized in the department. Rather than stay in the orthopedic department at the bottom, he decided to seek opportunities elsewhere.
Xu Chunliang knew these two were connections and their purpose for coming to the Medical Affairs Department was very clear. Everyone knew that the current head of the Medical Affairs Department was not yet determined, and they were likely eyeing the position.
Xu Chunliang had a clear understanding of his current situation. Gao Xinhua had also analyzed it for him. Although the hospital had temporarily assigned him to lead the Medical Affairs Department, it did not mean he would become the head. After all, he was too young and had only been working for less than half a year. Even if Zhao Feiyang was radical, he would not put him in such an important position. If a more suitable candidate came along, Xu Chunliang would have to step down.
The Personnel Department said they were seeking Xu Chunliang's opinion, but in reality, it was a notification. Even if Xu Chunliang opposed it, it would have no effect.
Ma Hongmei, the head of the Personnel Department, was a good friend of Gao Xinhua, so she was very considerate of Xu Chunliang. Worried that he might have concerns about the arrangement, she added, "Xiao Xu, you are in charge of the Medical Affairs Department, so these two new members are your responsibility."
Xu Chunliang smiled, "They are not new; I am the new one."
Ma Hongmei said, "No matter how long they have been at the hospital, they are new to the Medical Affairs Department, and you are their leader."
Xu Chunliang thought to himself that his leadership was not legitimate, and he didn't know who would be leading whom. It was possible that the hospital would announce one of these two as the head of the Medical Affairs Department in a few days, which would make him a laughingstock.
He didn't really care about the title of head of the Medical Affairs Department, but the hospital's actions made him feel uncomfortable. Was he just a tool to be discarded once used? The problem was that he was still pulling the millstone.
Back in the office, Zhou Wenbin had already left, and Cheng Xiaohong was tidying up his desk. Since Zhou Wenbin was the former head of the Medical Affairs Department, his desk was in the best spot.
Cheng Xiaohong reminded Xu Chunliang to move his things over, acknowledging him as her leader in her mind.
Xu Chunliang told her about the two new members, and Cheng Xiaohong was immediately upset: "What's going on? Who are those two? Is our Medical Affairs Department a shelter now?"
Xu Chunliang asked, "Is it that big of a deal?"
"You just got here and don't know the situation. Yang Zhenggang is a notorious troublemaker. Go ask anyone in the Radiology Department who hasn't been offended by him. He's arrogant and causes trouble all the time. As for Huang Lide, his surgical skills are poor, and he spends all day playing mahjong. They were both kicked out of their departments. Do you really want them?"
Cheng Xiaohong complained, but she soon realized that Xu Chunliang had no say in personnel matters. Even though she called him "Director Xu," the hospital had not officially appointed him.
Cheng Xiaohong had been in administrative work for four years and understood the many unwritten rules. Whether someone was promoted depended not on their own abilities but on the leadership's recognition of those abilities. Even if everyone thought you were incompetent, if the leadership believed in you, you could still be promoted.
The former head, Zhou Wenbin, had no real skills and just coasted through his days, but because he was a fellow townsman of Gu Houyi, he became the head of the Medical Affairs Department.
Xu Chunliang, although capable, had no degree or experience, but because the leadership liked him, he could lead her.
Once she understood this, Cheng Xiaohong's sense of imbalance disappeared. She even felt some sympathy for Xu Chunliang. Everyone thought he would be promoted to head of the Medical Affairs Department, but now that it had changed, he must be very disappointed.
Cheng Xiaohong kindly warned him, "Director Xu, you need to be more cautious. You should start building relationships."
Xu Chunliang understood her meaning and smiled, "Director Cheng, let's work together."
The opening ceremony of Ting Mei Breast Enhancement was grand. On the opening day, they invited a Hong Kong has-been female singer to cut the ribbon. Although she was a third-rate singer, she still had some fame and could still benefit from her popularity in mainland China.
Thanks to the thorough pre-opening publicity, hundreds of loyal fans and onlookers crowded the scene, making it extremely crowded.
The entrance to Huichun Hall was blocked, and the old man was quite helpless. He decided to close the shop for the day. He had hoped that after Ting Mei Breast Enhancement opened, he would be free from noise, but he never expected that they would force him to close on their opening day.
It was Saturday, and Xu Chunliang was not working. Seeing that the old man was in a bad mood, he suggested he go for a walk in the park to avoid the noise from next door.
Pei Lin had sent him an invitation in advance. Out of politeness, Xu Chunliang ordered two flower baskets to be sent over. He wanted to sign them as "Huichun Hall," but the old man refused. In the end, Xu Chunliang had to sign his own name.
Pei Lin and Pei Yu were dressed beautifully, standing on either side of the has-been female singer. They looked even more beautiful than the female star. Today, all three were dressed in a sexy style, with their chests tightly bound. After all, it was a breast enhancement clinic, and as the owners, they had to set an example. If they themselves had flat chests, customers would doubt the effectiveness of the treatment.
Suddenly, I realized it's Old Octopus's birthday today. If you have a monthly ticket, please send your blessings! Let's see how many people still remember me.
