The news of the emergency department being equipped with its own independent operating room was quite surprising to everyone!

An Yanjun and Chen Bingsheng looked at each other, eyes wide and filled with disbelief.

Having spent more than a decade in the emergency department, they had weathered many storms and understood a thing or two.

They were not afraid of troublemakers or hooligans; what they truly feared was when leadership made clear and resounding arguments!

No matter how good your reasoning might be, they could always come up with a bunch of messy reasons and noble-sounding excuses to stonewall you.

Qin Xiaoyuan took a drag of his cigarette, slowly exhaled, and mused that the situation at the provincial hospital No. 2 was rather complex. He and Tan Liguo had long past their honeymoon phase, and their discord was now out in the open.

Many directors of the hospital’s surgical system had been handpicked and promoted by Tan Liguo.

Recalling how Tan Liguo had sabotaged Chen Gang’s last selection, Qin Xiaoyuan felt uncomfortable. This time, he intended to change the hospital’s surgical landscape.

And the emergency department was the best starting point.

Qin Xiaoyuan was a heavy smoker, going through a cigarette every half a minute. He stubbed out the butt and said, “Actually, the development of the emergency department is an inevitable trend. As the lifeline for people, it is encouraged and developed by the state, and the leadership took the last chemical explosion case very seriously, saying that they wanted to promote the development of the hospital’s emergency department.”

At this, Qin Xiaoyuan chuckled lightly and looked at Chen Cang, “Speaking of which, Chen Cang, it was your merit. Your performance last time was very eye-catching. Wang Xiangjun had communicated with the leadership in his spare time, and the leadership disclosed that they want the emergency department of provincial hospital No. 2 to take on more responsibilities and coordinate with the emergency center 120.”

This means that our emergency department’s workload will undoubtedly increase. However, the number and quality of doctors must be drawn from various departments to assist in the emergency department’s day-to-day work.”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Earning merit is often hard to define; those who work in emergency services all have their merits, but you have to know how to earn it!

What does it mean to know how to earn merit?

It means that your achievements must be seen by the leadership (and here we should say 404).

Qin Xiaoyuan went on to say, “Although the specific news has not come down yet, Baoshan, you should prepare well in the meantime. Coordinate the work because it’s probably coming soon.”

Li Baoshan nodded, looking at An Yanjun, Chen Bingsheng, and Chen Cang, he said, “I’ve called you here mainly to discuss the coordination of future work, which may require some adjustments. You guys have been my reliable team for a long time, and there’s no need for us to be shy or avoid talking about certain things -we can just sit down and communicate directly.”

“Director An, I trust your skills and capabilities. I’m contemplating setting up a separate hand surgery division within the emergency department for you to lead.”

Upon hearing this, An Yanjun’s eyes lit up instantly!

An Yanjun was in his forties and his prospects were still on the rise. Being from a hand surgery background, he knew that the development of hand surgery in Dongyang Province was not good, with microscopic surgery unexplored and reattaching severed fingers seemingly a fantasy.

An Yanjun couldn’t help but ask, “Director Li, the development of hand surgery requires not only skills but also equipment. And I can’t do it all alone.”

Qin Xiaoyuan declared, “The equipment is already on its way!”

Li Baoshan’s eyes gleamed as well, “Chen will be your assistant. The two of you will work together.”

Their statements almost overlapped, causing An Yanjun to momentarily pause before clenching his fist firmly, “I will certainly do well!”

Chen Bingsheng, hearing that Chen Cang was about to be taken away, honestly first felt reluctant to let him go. Bonded over the nearly three years they had been together-a time in which Chen Cang had almost become an apprentice of his they got along very well. The sudden departure of Chen Cang would definitely make him uncomfortable.

But…

Uncomfortable as it may be,

it was an inevitable thing to happen.

And it was for Chen Gang’s future; he couldn’t hold him back.

With this in mind, Chen Bingsheng shook his head and smiled.

Yet Chen Cang suddenly fell silent. Truth be told, moving into hand surgery had never crossed Chen Gang’s mind, but… it was the most suitable option at present, considering his master-level tendon suturing skills and his advanced skin suturing. Not to pursue hand surgery would almost seem a waste of his talent.

But… with old Chen-

Chen Cang couldn’t help but speak up, “But… I belong to Big Brother Chen. What will he do without me?”

Those words made Chen Bingsheng’s face flush with a wave of red!

Inwardly, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, both angry and amused!

that kid is way too mischievous.

But still, it warmed my heart. Not bad, he has some conscience, and he still thinks of me.

Li Baoshan glared at Chen Cang, “Don’t you speak; I haven’t asked you yet.” After that, he looked at Chen Bingsheng, “Old Chen, you don’t need to worry about the wards anymore. You’ll be in charge of one of the two operating rooms, focusing specifically on various surgeries for general outpatient emergencies. If we’re going to do it, let’s be decisive. From now on, conditions like acute appendicitis, acute cholecystitis, acute… anyway, you’ll be responsible for performing those surgeries.”

The emergency department is a department, but it can also be an entire hospital.

Many large hospitals have a standalone building for their emergency department, with detailed and varied divisions.

Li Baoshan, well-traveled and experienced, has worked at many hospitals. Not to mention the current scale, even if the provincial second hospital’s emergency department was tripled, it wouldn’t be a problem.

Chen Cang, you… you won t need to worry about the wards either.”

Chen Cang was startled!

What does he mean by not worrying about the wards?

Li Baoshan continued, “From now on, you’ll focus only on surgeries. Any surgery you have time for, you go scrub in. Learn all the emergency surgeries. When Old Chen operates, you assist him, and when Director An operates, you help out there as well. Of course, you’ll be able to perform surgeries independently too.”

“I hope you become a distinguished surgeon.”

Who couldn’t understand what that meant?

It was clear they were set on promoting Chen Cang now.

The greatest fear for surgeons isn’t being busy.

It’s having downtime.

Once idle, all their skills go to waste.

I he intent behind Li Baoshan’s stance was to have Chen Cang bear the brunt.

Upon seeing this, Chen Bingsheng also smiled with relief. He knew better than anyone about Chen Gang’s talent. You could say he was a born surgeon with immense potential. AU he was missing was a stage.

An Yanjun also smiled. He had seen Chen Gang’s tendon suturing, which was nothing short of genius. With his addition, the expansion of the hand surgery department would thrive!

And now, Chen Cang was set to transform directly from a resident doctor to a surgeon in the operating room!

Upon hearing Li Baoshan entrust him with such responsibility, Chen Gang’s heart surged with emotion and excitement!

Expectant!

Extremely expectant!

Ward work was too tedious, with too much paperwork like writing medical records. Compared to that, Chen Cang much preferred surgery.

In the midst of this, Chen Bingsheng suddenly said, “Director, I have an idea.”

Li Baoshan nodded, “Let’s hear it.”

Chen Bingsheng, “I think we could let Chen Cang manage patients independently, but we could assign him a junior physician to do the paperwork and handle miscellaneous matters. After all… one cannot grow without personally managing patients.”

Li Baoshan’s eyes lit up!

Brilliant idea!

In this way, it would neither affect the surgeries nor hinder personal development.

But… who should assist Chen Cang?

That’s a problem!
