Chen Xia was shocked.
He had always thought that Zhao Xiaoying was a smiling old lady who did not fight for power or profit, and was obviously there to serve as a "caretaker government."
As a result, at the critical moment, Zhao Xiaoying not only did not retreat, nor did she shift the blame to her subordinates to protect herself, but instead took the initiative to stand up and take responsibility.
This is no joke. The outcome of this incident is that dismissal is the lightest punishment and expulsion is even possible.
Didn’t you see that Xu Shuangli and Liu Changsheng both shrank their necks and didn’t say a word?
After the working group members left, Chen Xia suddenly didn't know what to say.
"President Zhao, you..."
Zhao Xiaoying patted Chen Xia's hand:
"You did the right thing. Sending the doctor to Mayo Clinic for further training is for the long-term development of our hospital. This is all for the public good. Don't worry, this is a collective decision and should not be borne by an individual."
Besides, if we really need to find someone to handle this, I'll be the one. I'm 58 years old and will retire in two years. Even if my position is revoked, at least I can still enjoy the treatment of a deputy director-level official. It's worth it. And you're still young, our hospital can't afford to lose you..."
Oh my god, Chen Xia is really about to cry. This really shows that a friend in need is a friend indeed.
"President Zhao, don't worry. If you really have leadership responsibilities, it's unfair to let you bear them alone. We are a team. Besides, I'm not helpless. I can still find some connections when it matters."
The old lady smiled and left with a relieved look on her face.
Chen Xia was left standing alone in the conference room, his face gloomy and uncertain.
He has never been a generous person. This time, Li Huayan cheated his domestic colleagues for his own selfish interests. This matter cannot be resolved so easily.
The next few days
The four directors of Yuezhou People's Hospital were dismissed and all stopped working. The hospital stopped approving all major matters and froze all financial and personnel arrangements.
For a time, people were in panic and rumors were flying everywhere.
But there is a piece of rumor that everyone thinks is the most reliable, that something has happened to the intern doctor who went to Mayo, and it is a serious problem.
Chen Xia suspended his work and took a rare break. Every day he took his son and daughter out to play, either catching shrimps in the West Garden Pond or feeding squirrels in Fushan Park.
Little Youyou really enjoys having her father by her side every day. Her two silly brothers, whom she sees as silly, can only make faces at her.
However, when Chen Xia took out a variety of fruit candies of different flavors from his backpack, the three little ones happily hugged their father and kept trying to please him.
Gu Lin saw her husband sharing candy with the baby and immediately raised her eyebrows: "Second Chen, why are you giving candy to the child again?"
"Uh, well, it's okay to eat some candy. Just rinse your mouth after eating..."
"Is this what I'm talking about? You don't want a wife now that you have a child? What about my share?"
Chen Xia rolled her eyes suddenly. Even though this girl is a mother, her thinking is still so strange. How can she not snatch candy from a child?
Mother Gu looked at the family playing not far away and said worriedly:
"Old man, can Xiao Xia pass this test? Is he going to be punished? He's been staying at home for a week."
While writing calligraphy, Gu Wei said without raising his head:
"Look at Xiao Xia, does he care about the position of vice president? If he wants to be the president, he can go to Xiangjiang Margaret Hospital. Isn't it better than Yuezhou Hospital?"
As a mother-in-law, you will definitely think too much.
"Li Yanhua is such a jerk! He's such a jerk! Chen Xia treated him so well and created such a great opportunity for him to further his studies. How could he do such a thing?"
Gu Wei put down the brush and blew gently on the paper.
"There's nothing we can do about it. It's hard to depict the bones of a dragon or a tiger, and we can only know a person's face but not his heart. This accident has somewhat disrupted my son-in-law's plans. If he's no longer at the People's Hospital, our hospital will suffer the most. Sigh..."
What happened at Yuezhou Hospital quickly spread throughout the national health system.
Originally, everyone was filled with envy and resentment. Why is Yuezhou Hospital so impressive? Why can you study abroad? Why can you secure a grant of $50 million and 100 million RMB?
Now, in their eyes, the leadership of Yuezhou Hospital is finished. Dismissal is the lightest punishment. It will be extremely difficult to send doctors out in the future.
There are always some people who can't stand seeing others do better than them.
On March 10, after coordination with relevant departments, the remaining 19 interns returned to Yuezhou after stopping in Hong Kong.
After arriving in Yuezhou, all personnel were quarantined.
Everyone was asked to explain everything about Li Huayan in detail, especially his roommate Gao Li and team leader Wu Shaochen.
Even the luggage that everyone brought back from the United States was checked and searched again and again.
People who came later simply could not understand how serious the defense against enemy spies was in the 1980s, and how high the level of punishment for defection could be.
Wu Shaochen sat in the room and watched the working group empty out all his luggage, carefully checking even every doll, and then throwing them aside.
These dolls were gifts he bought with the allowance he saved while studying in the United States, and he intended to give them to the three little babies in Mr. Chen's family.
He clearly remembers that each doll cost $50, and all of them were genuine Disney products. One doll was equivalent to his two months' salary.
At this moment, Wu Shaochen felt heartbroken and could only close his eyes helplessly. The ambition he had when he returned to China was gone in an instant.
Similarly, this feeling of despair, disappointment and loss permeated the hearts of the 19 doctors in the training group, and everyone was filled with fear for their future.
I originally thought that I would soar to fame from then on, and that I had learned real skills, so that I could go back to Yuezhou Hospital and do a great job, introduce world-class technology and treatment methods, and make Yuezhou Hospital a top hospital in the country and a world-famous hospital.
Everything is over now. Even if they can barely keep their jobs, their future political prospects are gone. They will never have the chance to become department heads or deans, and their files will definitely have the words "never reused."
How many people regret studying abroad? Only they themselves know.
On the first night after returning to Yuezhou, no one was in the mood to eat dinner. Everyone stayed alone in the room, waiting for the judgment of fate.
Suddenly, fireworks were set off on the street outside the guesthouse.
Then a large group of Yuezhou Hospital staff members were seen beating drums and gongs, cheering, and waving at the people upstairs.
The colleagues behind me also unfurled a banner: "Welcome home"
Chen Xia held her little daughter in her arms and pointed happily upstairs, while Xiao Youyou clapped her hands happily, as if telling the 19 interns upstairs that she welcomed everyone home.
All the doctors upstairs were in tears.
