February 6, 1991, the fifth day of the Lunar New Year
350 medical staff who resigned from Yuezhou Hospital, plus 300 nurses recruited from major hospitals in the province, a total of 650 people, were first stationed in the hospital and began preliminary preparations.
On February 10, 600 medical staff were recruited from major hospitals across the country and rushed to Yuezhou from their hometowns to become the second batch of employees.
Among them, Kang Chengtao, the recently retired president of Union Hospital, also joined Four Seasons Hospital and became the vice president in charge of clinical medicine. At the same time, Xuan Yongda was also appointed as the vice president.
In order to avoid a shortage of staff when the new hospital opened, the Second Military Medical University and Zhijiang Medical University sent half of the fifth-year interns and nurses, a total of 600 people, to Yuezhou.
This was also the agreement that Chen Xia had previously reached with the two universities. These 600 medical students were said to be interns, but in fact they were just adapting to their jobs in advance. After graduating six months later, they would be directly transferred to become regular employees.
Although the two universities were reluctant to give so many outstanding students to a private hospital, they had no choice. The salary offered by Four Seasons Hospital was too high, and the basic salary for graduates was 20,000 Hong Kong dollars.
As a principal and a teacher, you can't stop students from pursuing better jobs, right?
Moreover, both universities have certain selfish motives. If a hospital has more graduates, it can become a "group force" in the future. When these students grow up, they will have a say within the hospital.
Then it would be natural to take care of your alma mater or your fellow students in the future.
On February 16, the first batch of 200 medical workers sent by Hong Kong Margaret Hospital arrived in Yuezhou, all of whom were from Hong Kong.
Four Seasons Hospital was declared as "Hong Kong Margaret Hospital Yuezhou Branch" and this is how it was promoted to the outside world.
As a large international hospital, Hong Kong doctors are indispensable, otherwise it would be like selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton.
These days, the trend of worshipping foreign things and fawning on foreigners is very serious. Chinese people think that everything abroad is good, especially foreign doctors, who are all miracle workers.
This time, Four Seasons Hospital hung up the sign of "Hong Kong Hospital", which basically saved Chen Xia tens of millions of dollars in advertising costs.
Some domestic patients will feel a few pounds lighter in the bones when they see that they are being treated by a foreign doctor.
On February 20, 80 foreign experts and 10 teams hired by the Organ Transplant Center all reported to Yuezhou.
So far, all equipment at Four Seasons Hospital has been debugged, all medical staff are on duty, and everything is ready, just waiting to open.
The generous investment of Four Seasons Hospital also directly alarmed the Ministry of Health.
Especially, there are 280 foreign doctors coming to work in China, which is a big satellite.
These days, only a large number of outstanding domestic talents go abroad. This is the first time I see a large number of top foreign doctors coming to China.
So inevitably, it was elevated to a political level, with people asking how much importance should be attached to it, how foreign doctors should be satisfied, and how Hong Kong compatriots should be arranged.
This is a rhythm of vigorously supporting and creating a model hospital.
After all the doctors are in place, the next step is to adjust and clarify the hospital management.
This time, Chen Xia arranged all clinical departments into a "dual director system"
One department, two directors, one Chinese director and one Hong Kong director (or foreign director), the two directors have equal status
The main purpose of doing this is to show outsiders that the dean is from Hong Kong, the department head is a Hong Kong doctor, and the boss behind the hospital is also a wealthy Hong Kong man.
Of course, the person who is really in charge is the Chinese director.
Because doctors from Hong Kong are generally rotated every six months and cannot stay in the mainland for a long time, they cannot become the leaders of the department.
Chen Xia thought it would be best if these Hong Kong doctors stayed here and could serve as the department director for a long time.
In the newly built conference hall of Four Seasons Hospital
On the rostrum, Chen Defa sat in the middle, flanked by Chen Shuqin, Chen Xia, Li Zhibai, and Lin Jiahao. The first three were investors, and the last two were the presidents of the two hospitals.
This meeting was chaired by Chen Xia
Doctors in mainland China are very familiar with Chen Xia, especially his old colleagues at Yuezhou Hospital. They know that this great man has a mysterious laboratory behind him and has invented hundreds of drugs.
He once turned an ordinary regional hospital into a first-class hospital in the country. Facts have proved his management ability and medical foresight.
And everyone knows that if you follow this "great god", you won't have to worry about any research papers in the future, and studying abroad will be a piece of cake.
Therefore, everyone was convinced of Chen Xia and never dared to look down on him.
Hong Kong and foreign doctors value Chen Xia's "capital" background more. He is the boss, the boss gives you food, so of course you have to listen to the boss.
This is also the minimum professional ethics. No matter whether you accept it or not, why don’t you resign if you don’t accept it?
Is there any other hospital in Hong Kong with higher revenue than Margaret Hospital? Is there any other hospital with more "world-class" laboratories than Pumpkin Vine Pharmaceuticals?
The doctors from the mainland were convinced, and the doctors from Hong Kong were obedient, and Chen Xia's prestige was established within the Four Seasons Hospital.
"Hello everyone, my name is Chen Xia. I'm sure you all know me, so I won't introduce myself in detail. The old gentleman with white hair in the middle of the stage is my grandfather, Mr. Chen Defa, the chairman of Four Seasons Group.
The lady next to her with extraordinary temperament is Ms. Chen Shuqin, the president of Four Seasons Group. Next to her are Dr. Li Zhibai of Hong Kong Margaret Hospital and your immediate superior, Dr. Lin Jiahao of Four Seasons Hospital.
The above mentioned people are all our fellow Hong Kong people, I am the only one from the mainland. "
There was a chuckle from the audience.
“Among you are my former colleagues, old friends from Margaret Hospital and various laboratories, and the outstanding medical workers whom I recruited from all over the country on behalf of Yuezhou Hospital.
Today we are gathered at Four Seasons Hospital. No matter what our identities were in the past, we are all colleagues and family from now on.
I very much hope that everyone can work together sincerely and give their best to make our Four Seasons Hospital a top domestic and world-class comprehensive hospital.
Don't think I'm bragging. My goal is to build Four Seasons Hospital and Margaret Hospital into world-class hospitals like the Mayo Clinic. I also want you to become respected experts and professors, the kind who can sit on the podium at medical conferences."
For a moment, all the doctors sitting below were excited.
Why did they abandon everything they had and come to Four Seasons Hospital? Besides the high salary, they wanted to make academic achievements.
Doctors like Xuan Yongda and Chen Chun have become directors of international medical associations, joined textbook editorial boards, and even applied for the Nobel Prize, standing at the pinnacle of their lives.
If someone else said this, everyone might not believe it, but when Chen Xia said this, everyone was full of confidence.
