Chapter 906: Preparation Before A War

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The academic hall of Yun Hua Hospital was a meeting room in Yun Hua Hospital with the greatest specifications. Although it was named an academic hall, due to its spacious area, large tables, and comfortable seats, it was suitable for long debates. Therefore, the academic hall played a role of providing a place for multiple departments when they were required to hold discussions with each other to work together, in other words, it was a place for them to argue.

Huo Congjun was extremely familiar with this place. He led Ling Ran into the hall early, looked for a position that was diagonal to the door and had their backs to the window. He sat down comfortably and crossed his leg over his knee before he said happily, “Ling Ran, look, meetings also need to be held at a suitable place and time. A meeting is a battlefield for people to fight for their interests. A medical meeting is a field for doctors to fight for their interests and fame. Every meeting should be taken seriously.”

Ling Ran sat next to Huo Congjun and said, “So we have to arrive at the meeting room before anyone else?”

“Yes, coming to the meeting room in advance is basic respect in a battlefield,” Huo Congjun looked at Ling Ran like he was a promising and worthy man to be taught and then passed down his experience. “It’s like fighting in your own customized battlefield, where you have the upper hand. When we come to the meeting room for a meeting, we should prepare in advance, do research in advance, and as you can see, my seat…”

Ling Ran looked at Huo Congjun’s seat without his expression ever changing.

Huo Congjun stood up, waved his arms, pointed at Ling Ran, and said, “Sitting here means that you can see every movement outside the door, but you’re not at the main position either, meaning you won’t be the target for public criticism. The windows at the back are also tightly closed. You won’t be blown by the wind or air conditioner. They are comfortable to sit in, and you can fight for a long time. If they are to hold a meeting for a whole day, you won’t easily compromise with them just because of your bodily discomforts.”

Ling Ran observed, agreed, and nodded.

“In addition, the location of the drinking fountain is very important. If you’re too far away, even when the hot water is ready, you can’t get it. So, it will be taken away by other people. You can only drink cold water. It’s easy to get hungry when you drink cold water, right? These are all small details which are not usually applicable. However, if there is a thirty-hour meeting, it is very significant,” Huo Congjun said and laughed out loud.

Ling Ran stared at Huo Congjun, and he was puzzled by what he said.

“Well, if Zuo Cidian is here at this time, he will surely ask, what have you thought of, department director?” Huo Congjun shook his head and said, “I remember that when I took over the Emergency Department, we used the meeting room in the old building. I kept a hot water bottle with me, and when I came over, I would pour water for the people on my side. As for the rest, I wouldn’t hand it over to my enemies even if that meant forcing myself to drink it, and those people were so thirsty when they watched me… When I was young, my kidney functions were really good…”

Huo Congjun sighed and helped Ling Ran choose a seat. He concluded, “You like operating theaters, and this is okay. But in a hospital, meetings can’t be overlooked, especially when they are important meetings like this. If you really have no idea how to prepare in advance, come earlier and sit in this chair. Visualize the scene where they become speechless when you scold them. Your thoughts will start running by then.”

Ling Ran said, “That’s why you got yourself the key to the meeting room?”

Huo Congjun’s high-spirited expression calmed down instantly.

However, who was Huo Congjun? After a few seconds, he said calmly, “I don’t have to bother others for the key, and it’s convenient for me as well. Isn’t that good?”

As he spoke, he put his nameplate wherever he wanted and put Ling Ran’s beside his.

The staff members who heard about the meeting came in and stood by the side. They could only pretend not to see the nameplates. Although there were rankings and so on when it came to the positions for the participants in meetings like this, no one could say anything when Huo Congjun moved the nameplates himself.

Five minutes later, the meeting room was gradually filled.

Doctors were very busy. Just got off the plane, about to fly, about to immediately participate in a surgery, and almost finishing a surgery were their usual modes of work. Doctors who could barely make it for the meeting were already considered very punctual.

Huo Congjun surveyed the doctors who came in coldly.

He had also changed the positions of the nameplates across him, especially the one opposite Huo Congjun. The nameplate over there clearly stated He Yuanzheng’s name. When He Yuanzheng himself arrived, Huo Congjun stared at him, and his cold sweat dripped on the ground.

“Most of them are associates.” Huo Congjun watched for a while, and his expression softened.

There was a huge gap between a department director and a chief physician of a hospital. For a strong department such as the General Surgery Department, if the department director came in person, Huo Congjun really needed to sort out his thoughts and criticize the department director in order. But if they were just a few associate department directors or associate chief physicians, he did not have to pay too much attention to them. He could argue however he wanted.

As Huo Congjun thought about this, the smile on his face also gradually became wider, just like a spider plant that was watered too much, so much so that its petals would start to drop to the ground.

He Yuanzheng sat on the opposite side. He looked at Huo Congjun and Ling Ran. Annoyance surged up his heart, and his mood was just as sour as pickled vegetables.

“Young He, you don’t have to wear so many layers in the hospital. I can see the sweat on your forehead,” Huo Congjun chuckled as he said to He Yuanzheng. It was as if Huo Congjun cared about him.

He Yuanzheng showed a very reluctant smile. How many clothes was he wearing? He only wore a scrub beneath his white coat. If he were to wear less, he would be shirtless. But the situation in front of him was not that much better than if he were to come to the place shirtless.

As He Yuanzheng was thinking about it, he heard Huo Congjun ask another question. “What’s your opinion on this case? Do you support Ling Ran, or do you have another idea?”

Wei Qing, the associate chief physician of the General Surgery Department, hurriedly interrupted Huo Congjun. In a half-joking tone, he said, “Department Director Huo, the meeting hasn’t started yet. You can’t have a private mini-meeting here.”

Huo Congjun pursed his lips. “Isn’t the purpose of this meeting for communication and coordination? Besides, even if I don’t say it now, I can still say it during the meeting? And I can say it even after the meeting? People’s opinions are opinions. Let others say whatever they want. What are you afraid of?”

In the order of relationships between the people in the General Surgery Department with the Emergency Department, Wei Qing’s relationship with the Emergency Department was not quite, which meant he was at the lower portion of the order. On one hand, this was due to each person’s personality. On the other hand, it was because the intestinal surgeries Wei Qing often did overlapped with a lot of the surgeries the Emergency Department did. Over the years, there was some discord between Wei Qing and the Emergency Department.

Meanwhile, the General Surgery Department was one of the major departments of Yun Hua Hospital, and because of it, they had a natural need to resist the expansion of the Emergency Department. If the General Surgery Department were to be divided into factions based on their attitude toward the Emergency Department, Wei Qing could be considered the leader of the anti-Emergency Department in the General Surgery Department.

However, today’s Emergency Medical Center was not vast enough for the General Surgery Department to be divided into factions just yet.

Wei Qing confronted Huo Congjun casually. “Since we’ve decided to hold a meeting, then we should let the meeting decide this matter. It’s just an MDT, is there a need for you to ? Is it there a need for you to make connections in private for it?”

“You’re right.” Huo Congjun agreed with Wei Qing, which was a rare sight to be seen. He said, “This is Ling Ran’s MDT.”

“Now that everyone is here, let’s start.” The chief physician of the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology arrived last. He looked as if he rushed here. For him, he did not care about who and how the surgery should be done. No matter what, it had nothing to do with the Department of Internal Medicine.

“Ling Ran, please introduce the patient’s condition.” Huo Congjun did not intend to exchange pleasantries.

Several surgeons who did not know the intentions of the Emergency Medical Center just smiled as usual. They only treated this as a regular surgical discussion.

Huo Congjun gave them looks as if he was looking at weaklings, and he thought, ‘You have already lost at the war preparation stage.’
