But then I figured out why he said this - maybe it wasn't me who convinced him, but he did it entirely to declare that he had no deep relationship with those pharmaceutical companies.
I didn't expect that my last sentence would have such an effect inadvertently. But I think it's no wonder, because once my measure is implemented, even if the pharmaceutical company has no choice but to accept the hospital's conditions,
There will definitely be dissatisfaction with him, the dean in charge.
I said, "Okay, it would be great if Dean Chu could come forward in person. I'm very grateful."
He took out another cigarette and lit it, then knocked the cigarette case on the coffee table in front of him a few times, "Dean Feng, maybe you have some misunderstandings about me."
I looked at him in astonishment, "Dean Chu, what did you say? I just came here and I don't understand many things. How could I misunderstand you?"
He lit a cigarette and said: "I already know what happened in the hospital yesterday, but I can use my personality to assure you that I did not do it! I, Chu Dingnan, am not that despicable."
I really didn't expect him to say such a sentence, so I suddenly became speechless, "Dean Chu, I, I didn't mean that, really."
He shook his head slightly, "Dean Feng, although you didn't completely convince me just now, I was very touched by your youth and your attitude towards your career. You know, I also came from a young age.
I once had your drive and the dream of doing something big, but I didn’t have the opportunity like you because I have been a deputy for many years. As you know, as a deputy
, my duty is only to cooperate, and many of my ideas are simply impossible to realize. Over the years, slowly, my dreams have disappeared, and my character has been smoothed. Alas!"
At this moment, I felt a sense of emotion.
He continued: "So, I told myself that I should support you. And I also know that you are a person with a background, so I must also support you. I am already over 50 years old. In this life
That's it. I used to be a very strong person, and I still can't lose that arrogance in my body, so many people in the hospital are afraid of me. Of course, I also know that many people are talking behind my back.
I am corrupt, take bribes, etc., but I don’t need to explain to them, because I know myself. This is the way society is now. When a person has power, others will always say that. Many people think that a powerful person
If a person is not corrupt, then it would be abnormal. Of course, I can’t be completely clean and tidy, and I can offer favors to pharmaceutical companies, and all these things..." He pointed to the cigarette case of Soft China cigarettes on the table, "I
I won't refuse. As the saying goes, if the water is clear, there will be no fish. I can't be spotless, but I was unwilling to spend the rest of my life in prison. It was not because of how high my consciousness was, but because there were several people in the previous team.
The fact that they all went to jail made me have to remind myself all the time and be wary of things like that."
I suddenly remembered something Deng Feng said to me, "Dean Chu, didn't something happen to the previous team of our hospital? You..."
He smiled bitterly, "I was transferred from another hospital. I was also the vice president of that hospital."
I immediately felt that my question was redundant. In the final analysis, it was still my immaturity. "Dean Chu, I'm sorry. I don't mean anything else. I just arrived at this unit and I feel too much pressure. But I am very grateful."
You, because you were sincere just now. In fact, we are both medical students and academic professionals. We have at least one thing in common, that is, we are all simple in our bones."
His face was as calm as water, "Dean Feng, I agree with your statement, but I don't think it is particularly accurate. To be precise, for me, what I yearn for most is simplicity. Because I have been complicated before,
I have also experienced a lot of intrigues, but deep down in my heart I still yearn for the simplicity of the past. Perhaps, this is what we have in common."
My eyes were a little moist, "Dean Chu, you said it so well."
The first time I used the honorific in front of him, I didn't pay attention, but this time it was intentional. My respect for him comes from the bottom of my heart.
Maybe his words were not credible, but at least what he said at this moment had completely moved me. Only now did I truly understand: This hospital is really not that complicated inside.
He looked at me and said, "Dean Feng, I admire you very much. At least you have caught my weakness, because although I am arrogant, I don't want to be misunderstood and doubted by you, so I have to go to those medical schools by myself."
Company talks.”
I also looked at him and said, "Dean Chu, I really don't have such thoughts, and I don't want anything to happen to any of our team members. What I said is the truth. Please believe me."
He shook his head and said: "I have always been very open-minded in my heart, and I don't care about the rumors outside. But it will be different after you come. I don't want to suffer the disaster of the fish pond."
I immediately heard another meaning in his words: he seemed to be saying that if I got to this hospital, someone would definitely have problems, but he didn't want himself to be affected in any way.
In other words, he has expressed an attitude: he hopes to escape innocently.
Now, I feel that these are not problems that I need to solve immediately. For now, it is enough to get his support.
So, I immediately said to him: "Dean Chu, I also hope this is the result. Now, I dare not say that I completely believe you, but at least I am very grateful to you."
He looked at me, "There's one more thing."
I have become very relaxed now," you said."
"You control the consumption of each vice president. I need you to reconsider this matter. I estimate that if you bring this matter up this afternoon, you will definitely encounter resistance from everyone. Of course, no one may directly object.
You, but this matter will definitely affect the effect of the meeting. Do you understand what I mean?"
Of course I understood, what he meant was that if I brought this matter up in the afternoon, the meeting would definitely become silent, and everyone would not express any opinions on other matters. I said: "I am in the agenda
You didn’t say you wanted to discuss this matter?”
He said: "But you have told the Finance Department your intention. I believe that several vice presidents are aware of this matter now. Dean Feng, you should know that in an institution like ours, there is no
What can be kept secret?"
I didn’t quite understand, “Well, Dean Chu, isn’t my measure wrong? Think about it, our hospital leaders spend millions a year. What does this make our employees think?”
He shook his head and said: "Some things cannot be viewed this way. Take me for example. I don't take bribes, but I always have friends in society, right? My monthly income is only so much, and it is also related to my face. The headquarters may
I pay the bills myself when I entertain guests, right? Also, according to the ideas you mentioned earlier, you will inevitably have to treat people to meals and drinks in the future. Although I know that you are relatively well-off financially, I cannot let you go to the office.
Do you pay your own money to treat guests when you are in trouble? Dean Feng, please correct what I said below: I think you are still too bookish. Think about it, if every leader must be honest on the one hand,
On the other hand, if you have to spend your own money to treat guests, what’s the point of being an official?”
I have to admit that what he said is very reasonable, and I completely agree with it. Now our protection system for officials is not perfect, and from the perspective of legal income, it is still very low. Even for the most honest officials, their last
At least you have to take care of your face.
But my idea was not what he said. He completely misunderstood my true intention. So I said: "Dean Chu, I don't think what you said. My idea is: now our hospital must do something
One of the most important things is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. The purpose of my greeting to the Finance Department was also to consider the issue of expenditure reduction, because I have already understood that the annual expenditure on administrative expenses of our hospital is too scary. What I am talking about is not
The specific number is the ratio between that number and the hospital's income. If our hospital's business volume increases more than ten times in the future, I will never think that number is terrible. President Chu, do you understand what I mean?"
He nodded and said: "Of course I understand. But this is the reality. Situations like ours are also common in other units. For example, those Qingshui Yamen in the province, their annual reception expenses are also terrible. Dean Feng, I am very
I agree with what you said about the concept of increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, but you should know that no unit is isolated from society. When leaders want to interact with society, this must be the case."
I found that this was another conceptual problem, "Dean Chu, I don't agree with what you just said. As I said before, after all, we are a unit that is responsible for its own profits and losses, so we have to consider running
cost issue. However, I understand very well what you just said. What I mean is not to completely cancel the issue of reimbursement when you have external contacts, but I think it needs to be controlled. We can no longer use public funds for reimbursement as we did before.
