Chapter 76 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack
But the Talent Strengthening Plan? I can't believe people are actually applying for it? It's a plan that can't be implemented, I don't know what's the point of applying for it.
Like in previous years, it will probably stop after less than two months.
Dean Lin thought to himself, without much hope.
As luck would have it, the Han-Shao City Hospital assigned two students to participate in this program, one more than in previous years. This way, the two students will have company and won't be all alone with no one to talk to.
These young people are not like they were back then; they can do anything on their own.
The doctor who would mentor them was Dr. Zheng Ruili, who had been chosen long ago. He was the most famous surgeon at Hanshao City Hospital, and he could safely complete almost any surgery.
However, due to his advanced age in recent years, he has gradually reduced the number of surgeries he has undergone.
Whether it was Dean Lin or anyone else, they all knew that he was old. No matter how rich his surgical experience or how senior he was, his body and hands could no longer support such a difficult and demanding surgery.
While some common surgeries may have no successors, it would be a great pity if no one were to carry them on. However, some more difficult surgeries and procedures would be a great loss if no one were to follow in their footsteps.
Unfortunately, no one has been able to meet his requirements yet. Thinking this, Dean Lin sighed, actually hoping that someone would finally be able to meet his standards this time.
But what skills could a fresh recruit who's just started clinical practice possibly have? It would be good enough if he didn't cause trouble; what skills could he possibly learn in just one or two months of internship? In Dean Lin's view, the country's establishment of this talent development plan was nothing short of wishful thinking.
Geniuses do exist, but to expect them to reach their level of genius is simply wishful thinking.
However, even if they had no hope, Dean Lin still gave an order to have an attending physician meet them at the door on the day they arrived to report for duty.
The attending physician was somewhat unhappy about this. "I haven't even written the medical records yet, and those patients are still waiting to be admitted. Can't I send someone else? Even a nurse would be fine." He, an attending physician, actually had to come and pick up two students.
In his office, that's what he thought, but when he said it aloud, it wasn't so straightforward; it was just tinged with a hint of complaint.
Other doctors comforted her, saying, "It's alright, they'll leave in a while." This happens almost every year, and this doctor had only recently settled into the department, so she was unaware of this.
Because of this, Ding Hong couldn't help but ask a few more questions, and then he learned about the talent development program and what these two students were there for.
He became somewhat interested. The Talent Strengthening Program? He wanted to see how they differed from the senior students who came for internships.
On the day of the report, Lin Wei arrived right on time. She saw someone holding a sign waiting at the door, and a person who looked like a student walking directly towards them. "Hello, I am Lin Wei, a participant in this Talent Strengthening Program."
Upon seeing her, Ding Hong glanced at another contestant who had arrived beside him. One was very young, while the other's face was already etched with the marks of time. He couldn't help but ask, "Excuse me, how old are you?" She looked so young; he would believe she was still in high school.
If it weren't for the fact that Dean Lin had given him this name, he really wouldn't have believed that she was the person he was supposed to pick up.
Lin Wei paused for a moment. To be honest, she had really forgotten how old she was. "I should be almost 18, right?" she asked uncertainly. "Does that have anything to do with our mission today?"
Unlike the quiet and obedient students who arrived earlier, she asked in return, showing no fear of the doctor and not feeling that because he was older and more experienced, she should be subservient to him.
This surprised Ding Hong; the man was quite quiet, while the woman was quite bold.
He shook his head. "It's okay, I'm just a little surprised." He was already in clinical practice before he was even eighteen. How many grades must he have skipped? He couldn't even figure it out for a moment. Was it five or six years?
The person next to her, who was also a participant in this talent development program, looked at her in shock. He thought he was already very capable, but he didn't expect there to be someone even more capable than him.
Most importantly, he envied her ability to speak freely in front of the teacher, something that those who only know how to study by rote cannot do.
On the way, Yang Mingjie noticed that the teachers ahead of him didn't seem to care about their actions and were just walking ahead on their own. He deliberately slowed down and walked up to Lin Wei, introducing himself, "Hello, I'm Yang Mingjie from the Medical School of Yuncheng University. Which school are you from?" Wasn't she the only other participant in the program around him? Since no one else spoke, he could only talk to her.
Don't even mention it, at least he had a companion, while everyone else at his school was alone. Thinking of this, Yang Mingjie felt lucky.
If he were alone, he wouldn't know how he would get through the rest of the time.
After hearing this, Lin Wei glanced at him and replied, "I'm Lin Wei from University A. It's nice to meet you." She also wanted to know his abilities, and since they would be working together for a while, she didn't mind building a good relationship with him.
Because of this, the two quickly started chatting. "Are you nervous?" Yang Mingjie asked.
Lin Wei: "I'm fine." Actually, she wasn't nervous, but she could tell he was, so she comforted him, "It's okay, we've only just gone in, and the doctors and instructors won't let us do anything too difficult."
"Of course, as for the future, I don't know."
Yang Mingjie felt ashamed that he was not as calm as a girl younger than him. "You're too calm. Aren't you afraid of the upcoming test?" The professors made it sound so difficult. He was really afraid that he would leave after only two days.
Lin Wei: "Being afraid is useless. Even if we're going to leave, we should learn something before we go, right? Learning is a gain."
Hearing the voices behind him, Ding Hong wasn't actually annoyed by the two people who came to pick him up. Even the most obnoxious person couldn't be truly hated for saying such things. However, if what his other colleagues said was true, it would be difficult for them to stay.
Ding Hong led them to two white coats, then gave them a brief introduction to the hospital before leading them to the cardiac surgery floor.
"You will be taught by Dr. Zheng Ruili, but because he is currently out of town and cannot return immediately, you may have to stay with me or another doctor for a while." This period of time may be one or two days, or it may be a week; we don't know yet. However, before he returns, we should let the two of you know the general situation in the department.
Some things still need to be taught.
Lin Wei was a little disappointed, but she quickly adjusted her mindset. If she didn't even know some basic knowledge, she could imagine what it would be like to face her supervising doctor. So it was good that he hadn't come back yet. It was perfect, as she could familiarize herself with the department, the cardiac surgeons, and common cases.
It's just a pity that what she learned before couldn't be put to use. Rather than operating in the system space, she would prefer to practice in real life.
Ding Hong, unaware of her thoughts, said with a hint of envy, "Sometimes I envy you guys for being able to receive his guidance." He was just a junior attending physician, often working in the operating room and sometimes not even getting a chance to be an assistant, let alone having a good relationship with Dr. Zheng.
They're big shots, they don't even remember him, a nobody doctor, yet Lin Wei and the others are still getting his guidance. They must have been incredibly lucky.
Lin Wei just smiled and didn't say anything, because he was just rambling on and didn't need anyone to comfort him. Yang Mingjie glanced at her, not knowing what to say in the first place, and seeing that she didn't speak, he followed suit.
I don't know about the others, but I feel that this companion is much better at handling interpersonal relationships than I am, so following her is the right thing to do.
At that moment, he was once again relieved that he was not alone.
Upon arriving at the office, Ding Hong briefly introduced the number of doctors in the department and their daily work, then asked two people to put on their white coats.
"Now I'll be following the deputy director on his ward rounds."
His previous complaints stemmed from the fact that he was an hour late for rounds today while waiting for them. By the time he came to pick them up, his colleagues had already started admitting patients, while he hadn't done a single thing. How could he not be angry?
But since things have already come to this, there's nothing that can be done. What can he do when he's so unlucky? He thought to himself as he prepared to make his rounds.
Lin Wei and Yang Mingjie quickly followed at the back of the group of doctors, wandering from ward to ward. There was nothing they could do; they were the lowest-ranking people in the department. If their supervising teachers were there, they could approach them, but they didn't know anyone.
Lin Wei watched him typing on his phone and asked, "What are you doing?"
Yang Mingjie: "I was chatting with a junior from my school. He was also a participant in the Talent Strengthening Program, but he was assigned to another hospital."
At this moment, the person on the other end broke down and said, "You have no idea how awkward it is for me to be alone in the department. Nobody talks to me, and I don't know what to do. I can only hold the medical records and flip through them."
"They're so busy. My mentor asked me a few questions today, and I answered them haltingly. I'm doomed."
Just as Yang Mingjie was telling his junior that his teacher was away and such a thing wouldn't happen, the deputy director of the department started questioning everyone one by one.
What are the symptoms and signs of patent ductus arteriosus?
The doctors in front of us gradually moved on to the doctors behind us.
At that moment, his heart skipped a beat, and he whispered to Lin Wei, "We're not doctors here, so they shouldn't ask us anything, right?"
Lin Wei exchanged a glance with the deputy director of the department in front of her. "Well, I think you might want to be prepared." She had a bad feeling. But she wasn't exactly panicked; it was just asking questions, right? She was good at that.
However, she also had a slight suspicion in her heart that this might be the kind of care that Elder Wei mentioned? Just thinking about the postponement of the ward rounds, she knew that it was impossible to let them stand there dumbfounded, especially since they were not ordinary interns, but participants in the Talent Strengthening Program.
So soon, the problem fell on their side.
"Who can answer this? What is Tetralogy of Fallot, and what are its clinical manifestations?" Deputy Director Liu asked the two people at the back of the table.
When doing practice problems, Yang Mingjie could usually come up with something by making things up, but when examined by so many doctors, he genuinely couldn't remember anything.
Tetralogy of Fallot, that sounds familiar, but what exactly is it? The harder he tried to recall, the more nervous he became, only vaguely remembering a few things.
"The symptoms of Tetralogy of Fallot are cyanosis, hypoxia, and a tendency to squat," Yang Mingjie stammered, as these were all he could remember.
Deputy Director Liu was somewhat dissatisfied. "Anything else?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Mingjie immediately turned his gaze to Lin Wei. "Anything else?"
Help! He admitted that he rushed to answer because he was afraid that the other person would ask even more difficult questions. Tetralogy of Fallot, does anyone know what that is? He vaguely remembered that it was a heart defect, but he couldn't explain it.
The main problem is that this knowledge comes from a few years ago. Although he had taken the exam on the definition of terms, he had forgotten it after so long.
This brings us to his year of college. Yang Mingjie will be a senior this year, but because he participated in this program, he went straight to clinical practice. The subjects he took the exams for were only from the second semester of his junior year and the entire senior year. As for the knowledge that had been tested in previous years, he certainly didn't remember it very well.
At least I remember it was not as good as Lin Wei's.
Seeing his gaze, she finally answered in a gesture of goodwill.
