Dean Gu smacked his lips after hearing this and couldn't help asking:
"Chen Xia, I have a big question. Where did you learn how to perform appendectomy surgery? Is the infectious disease department now also performing surgery?"
Dean Gu was really a little curious, because he was the one who recruited Chen Xia personally, and he knew his background and level best.
"Well, ahem, it's because I'm humble and eager to learn. I spent the mornings in the infectious disease department and the afternoons in the operating room, watching the surgeons operate. Then I watched and asked a lot, and that's how I learned appendectomy surgery. It's actually not that difficult. I was just being pushed around, there was nothing I could do."
Dean Gu was really surprised when he heard this. He agreed with this statement because it was impossible for him to learn surgery otherwise.
But he could perform surgery just by watching from the sidelines. It has to be said that Chen Xia is really a medical genius.
"Alright, this is a blessing for the patient, and it's also a blessing for you. Here, this is the hospital's appointment document. Based on actual needs, the organization has officially appointed you as Deputy Chief of the General Affairs Department. I hope you can maintain your clinical work while also ensuring logistical support."
Chen Xia stood up at once and said, "Please rest assured, Commissioner Zhang, I will definitely live up to Country D's trust."
After a while, the people nearby saw Chen Xia quickly jumping out of Dean Gu's office, followed by a teacup flying out.
Chen Xia is still a little confused now. If you want to reward me according to my merits, I should at least arrange him to be the deputy director of a clinical department.
In his two lifetimes, he never thought that one day he would be sent to the General Affairs Department.
The General Affairs Department is responsible for the canteen, security, water and electricity maintenance, and the distribution of labor protection supplies.
No wonder those people were talking about year-end benefits this morning. It turns out I was “exiled to the frontier” and became the deputy chief steward of the Imperial Household Department.
Damn, Old Man Gu is so mean. I have to seek revenge on Gu Lin next time.
The General Affairs Department has an independent office building in the southeast corner of the hospital, next to a small dock. It also manages a large material warehouse.
When Section Chief Luo Jiacheng saw Chen Xia coming, he was as happy as if it were New Year's Day.
"Hey, Chen Xia, you're finally back. Come on, comrades, stop what you're doing for a moment. You should all recognize this guy. He's the eldest son of Director Chen Bingkun of the Infectious Diseases Department. He's now our new deputy director. Welcome everyone."
Regardless of whether it was sincere or fake, everyone applauded enthusiastically.
"Comrade Chen Xia is a talent that provincial and regional leaders have focused on cultivating. Our superiors sent us this young leader after careful consideration. Today, I'm putting this on notice: from now on, Deputy Section Chief Chen's opinions are my opinions, and Deputy Section Chief Chen's instructions are my instructions. I will follow Deputy Section Chief Chen's command in everything."
The staff of the General Affairs Department all gasped. What happened to the Section Chief?
Others were eager to give the new deputy section chief a warning and let him know who is the boss here.
But this Section Chief Luo not only does not fight for power, but instead gives all his power to the new deputy section chief. What is going on?
This time, the old fox Luo sincerely transferred power to Chen Xia. The General Affairs Department of this era was not the General Affairs Department of later generations where one could take advantage of others and make a lot of money.
Now it’s all public to public, who will give you kickbacks?
Not only are there no kickbacks, but if you want to buy something in short supply, you have to ask for help from everyone. Take pork for example, everyone is short of meat now.
Although the hospital is rich, it is a weak institution and the state-owned pig farms will not pay any attention to you.
If you ask for 10 fat pigs and someone gives you half of them, it means that he, as a section chief, has strong business capabilities.
It's already the end of October in the lunar calendar, and the Chinese New Year is only two months away. The most important task of the General Affairs Department is to prepare New Year's goods and benefits for employees:
Pork, rice oil, cotton cloth, melon seeds, peanuts, apples, pears, etc., anyway, everything is needed.
In the 1970s and 1980s, there was an unspoken rule in public institutions like hospitals: you can give out things, but you can't give out cash, and giving out money is considered a mistake.
The Fourth Hospital is located in a rural area, 20 kilometers away from the nearest big city, Yuezhou.
Due to historical reasons, although the Fourth Hospital has the strongest technical strength, it is a "stepson" because the predecessor of the Fourth Hospital was a military hospital. The biological sons of the regional health bureau are the "First Hospital and the Second Hospital."
Just by listening to the sequence ranking, you can tell that they are the "First and Second Courtyards" and they are only the "Fourth Courtyard", not the Fourth Prince who made a comeback from the Pigtail Dynasty.
This also leads to the fact that the Fourth Hospital is not loved by your uncle or grandmother, and your superiors let you fend for yourself. They will only think of you if something bad happens, such as epidemic disaster relief.
They will forget about you when there is a benefit, for example, when they allocate a batch of scarce materials, the Fourth Hospital will never get a share.
Last year, Section Chief Luo only managed to get 10 pigs with a bag of cash. Each person got two kilograms of pork and half a kilogram of peanuts. That was it, nothing else.
In the end, he was scolded by his employees and he didn't want to do the job anymore.
It's time to prepare holiday welfare supplies again this year, and Luo Jiacheng is so worried that his hair is falling out in clumps.
So when he heard that Chen Xia had certain relationships with provincial and regional leaders, and that he was assigned to be the deputy chief of the General Affairs Section, Luo Jiacheng immediately started to make plans.
Anyway, the logistics work has been done well. At most, you will be praised by the leaders and staff, and it will not be a political achievement. I have never heard of a general affairs section chief being promoted to dean. Such good things only happen in clinical departments.
Since there is no money to be made and no political achievements, what else is there for him to covet?
As soon as Chen Xia arrived, he was put on the throne and allowed to make all the decisions. If things went well, everyone would share in the profits. If things didn't go well, he, the deputy section chief in charge, would take the blame.
Luo Jiacheng just needs to be a peaceful "emperor", how nice it would be.
Chen Xia also had his own plans. He came to the General Affairs Department just to make a cameo appearance, put his name on the list and not have to do anything. He would then go back to the Infectious Diseases Department and continue to be a nobody.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he appeared, he was immediately crowned with a yellow robe.
The key point is that the person who put the yellow robe on him was the real section chief, which made him confused.
"Section Chief Luo, Uncle Luo, please stop joking. I'm just here to transition to the General Affairs Department. Why are you handing over all the power to me? This is making people laugh at me. They think I'm ignorant and I'm fighting for power and profit right after arriving at the General Affairs Department."
"Ah, Chen Xia, you don't know, my heart hasn't been feeling well lately. Old Liu from the Internal Medicine Department said I need to rest well or I'll die suddenly. So I'm leaving the General Affairs Department to you. I'm going to take sick leave. Yes, I won't be back for two months. I'm leaving everything up to you."
After saying that, Luo Jiacheng seemed to have thought of something. He left the General Affairs Department as quickly as possible and went to the dean to ask for sick leave, leaving Chen Xia with her mouth twitching.
