Doctor Qian, nicknamed Qian the Dogleg.
The word "dog leg" is easy to understand, he is the political commissar and the dean's lackey.
On weekdays, he is unwilling to do any work and only wants to do things that will make his name remembered by his superiors.
As for the doctor Zhao next to him, he was nicknamed Zhao the Good Man and Zhao the Kind Man. He did all kinds of work on weekdays, no matter how dirty or tiring it was, as long as someone asked him to do it, he would do it.
These two people are not only the oddities of cardiothoracic surgery, but also the oddities of the entire military hospital.
One of them was well-remembered by his superiors, and the other had a good reputation within the hospital. Since the director of cardiothoracic surgery left, the competition for the position of director of cardiothoracic surgery had become fiercest between the two of them.
Others don’t want to compete and are unwilling to compete because they know their own limitations.
The position of director is not like any other position. It is very prestigious to be a director, but their skills are not good enough. They can perform basic operations, but they cannot do complicated ones.
Cardiothoracic surgery is different from other departments. Simply put, it is normal for cardiothoracic surgery patients to stay in the operating room all day.
Being a cardiothoracic surgeon not only requires having a brain in your hands, but also requires enough perseverance and ability to support your body.
Of course, these things that happened within the department were told to Xu Zhiyi by the nurses and doctors in the department after she came to work, otherwise how could she know.
As soon as the political commissar said that she was the newly appointed chief of surgery, Xu Zhiyi could clearly see the fire in the eyes of Dr. Qian and Dr. Zhao.
Sure enough, Dr. Qian arrived at that moment.
Doctor Qian retorted, "Commissar, our cardiothoracic surgery department has always performed the most surgeries. Normally, we spend a whole day on the operating table. Even men like us can't stand it, so how could a weak female comrade like Doctor Xu possibly endure it?"
Political Commissar, please stop joking."
The political commissar's face darkened. "Don't underestimate Director Xu. She is one of the best surgeons in the Capital Military Region Hospital. It is an honor for our hospital to have her here.
Besides, the Chairman has said that men and women are the same. What men can do, women can do too. Xiao Qian, don't look at people with tinted glasses."
"Yes, yes, the political commissar is right. But I'm telling the truth. I'm just worried about Dr. Xu. Don't be so boastful now. If Dr. Xu lags behind when we really need him, it will be troublesome."
The political commissar looked at Xu Zhiyi, who said, "As a soldier, I will naturally move wherever I'm needed. Doctor Qian hasn't even worked with me again yet, so it's a bit premature to worry about that."
If I, Xu Zhiyi, truly cannot be the Director of Cardiothoracic Surgery, I will resign from the Dean without you having to tell me."
Dr. Qian was speechless. Dr. Zhao, while sharing the same sentiments, was a kind and benevolent man in the hospital. How could he possibly talk about lesbians? Or even look down on them?
"Alright, Director Xu was personally invited by the dean, and her abilities are recognized by the dean. So, please stop talking and keep your opinions to yourself."
The political commissar gave Dr. Qian a few more instructions and then left, leaving a huge mess to Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi shook his head and sighed: Political Commissar, you really know how to smooth things over!
Xu Zhiyi looked at Dr. Qian and Dr. Zhao, coughed a few times, and introduced herself: "Hello, I'm Xu Zhiyi, the new director of cardiothoracic surgery. I hope we can get along well in the future."
"Wow, that's great. We finally have a female lesbian in the cardiothoracic surgery department again."
"Who says it's not true? There's no other department like our cardiothoracic surgery department, where there are only two female comrades."
The person who spoke first was Dr. Zhao. This Dr. Zhao was not the same Dr. Zhao as before. She was one of the only two female comrades in the cardiothoracic surgery department.
The next person to speak was Dr. Sun, the only female comrade in the cardiothoracic surgery department.
The next person introduced to Xu Zhiyi was Dr. Zhao (male), a good and kind person in the hospital, who had just gotten into trouble in front of the political commissar.
"Hello, Director. My last name is Zhao. From now on, you can leave anything you need to me."
Xu Zhiyi nodded and replied, "Okay." It just so happens that I like writing reports, and I would really like to let you do it.
Doctor Zhao (female) said, "Director, everyone in our department calls Doctor Zhao Doctor Zhao, and I'm Xiao Zhao. So, from now on, you can just call me Xiao Zhao."
Xu Zhiyi nodded to show that he understood.
Then, the remaining two doctors, Dr. Zhang and Dr. Li, also briefly greeted Xu Zhiyi.
Because the political commissar took Xu Zhiyi around the hospital today, Xu Zhiyi missed their ward rounds and could only wait until tomorrow to know the detailed conditions of the patients in the department.
Generally speaking, Xu Zhiyi did nothing today. He just sat in the office, waiting for the end of the day.
The main reason was that there was nothing to do in the department, so Xu Zhiyi just stretched his ears and listened to the gossip between Xiao Zhao and Dr. Sun.
But apart from anything else, there are so many things going on in the hospital.
Last night, two women came to the hospital to give birth. One gave birth to a girl, and the other gave birth to a boy. The woman who gave birth to a girl actually tried to steal the child at night. Fortunately, her family arrived in time, otherwise another tragedy would have occurred.
Xu Zhiyi sighed, shook his head, and thought to himself: There are so many strange things in this world!
Xu Zhiyi spent a whole day observing the doctors in the department. In other words, they did everything except their official duties.
Take Dr. Zhao for example, he was involved in everything that happened at the pharmacy. How could the previous director tolerate him?
As for Dr. Qian, he never leaves his seat all day long. I wonder what he is writing at his desk?
As for Doctor Zhang and Doctor Li, apart from taking time to visit the ward, they spend the rest of their time sitting in their own little space reading books.
Fortunately, they were reading surgical books and not other books unrelated to work, nor were they doing other things unrelated to work.
I have to sigh, Xu Zhiyi’s requirements are really low now!
The morning passed quickly. Xu Zhiyi, Xiao Zhao, and Dr. Sun went to the restaurant together. After lunch, they lay on the table for a while before starting their afternoon of fishing in troubled waters.
Xu Zhiyi worked a whole day without seeing a single patient or receiving a single patient. The day passed like this.
