C429 Difficulties in Managing Traditional Chinese Medicine
If he was fired, it would be hard to find a job, and the other hospitals wouldn't hire him to be their president. At this age, people want a stable and well-paid job, and no one wants to be fired.
Especially for those with a higher position and a higher income, they would not want to be expelled even after the age of 40 or 50. This was because people at this age could not withstand any setbacks or losses and no longer had any ambitions.
"You really don't want to fire me." The old dean asked curiously.
"Yes, I had never thought of expelling you before, and now that I've seen you, I definitely won't expel you, because I know you are a practical, intelligent, and capable person." Wang Xiao said.
"But I'm not one of you." The old dean said.
He was not a member of the Divine Monarch Sect, so it was very difficult for him to be valued by Wang Xiao.
"You weren't a member of our Divine Monarch Sect in the past, but from now on, you are a member of my Divine Monarch Sect." Wang Xiao said.
"But there are probably a lot of people in your sect who want to take the position of dean, right?" the old dean asked.
"Those people in our sect are all barbarians. They are good at killing and fighting, but the hospital is managed by you." Wang Xiao said.
The experts of God's Gate were indeed not good at managing hospitals. If this large hospital was given to them to manage, it would only take a couple of months to turn this hospital into a mess. So no matter what, this hospital must not be handed over to those people.
Sigh!
The old dean sighed.
"Why do you sigh?" Wang Xiao asked.
The old Headmaster said, "I have never pursued anything in my life. I only hoped that I would have some attainments in the art of medicine, but never thought that …"
After saying that, he did not want to continue, but Wang Xiao did not want to ask any further.
"Old President, I want to turn this hospital into a Chinese Medical Hospital." Wang Xiao said.
"My name is Zheng Defu, you can call me directly by my name or you can call me by my name." The old Headmaster politely replied.
"Alright, then I will call you Lao Zheng." Wang Xiao said.
"Absolutely, if you wish." The old dean nodded.
When he found out that the other sects had taken over the hospital, he was very worried about getting fired, but now, it seemed that his previous worries were all unnecessary, because Wang Xiao did not intend to fire him. Instead, he would continue to use him.
Wang Xiao continued to speak: "Lao Zheng, I want to change this hospital into a Chinese Medical Hospital, I wonder what ideas you have?"
"It seems a bit inappropriate for you to tell me such an important decision when we have just met." The Lao Zheng said.
"No doubt about it, no doubt about it. If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't continue to use you. " Wang Xiao said directly.
Di Loong did not speak, he just sat beside Wang Xiao, because he did not know a thing about medicine. Even if he wanted to manage it, he would have no way to do so.
"This may be a little troublesome." Lao Zheng said in a serious tone.
"I'd like to hear more about it." Wang Xiao said.
"Because this hospital has always focused on western medicine, the doctors and nurses inside all only know western medicine, and they don't know anything about Chinese medicine. If you want to reform, then you can't use all of the people inside, not to mention there are so few who know about traditional Chinese medicine, and in such a short period of time, where did you find so many Chinese doctors? In the entire country now, very few Chinese doctors are truly capable. Most of the people here are people who swindled the world. "
The old Headmaster's words were very reasonable, there were very few people who truly knew Chinese medicine, and most people only knew a little bit of it in order to earn some money, yet they were able to help the world, making it seem like Hua Tuo was still alive and a small magpie was reborn.
Although Wang Xiao understood the medical skills of traditional Chinese medicine, he couldn't do everything by himself. He had to do everything by himself.
"..."
Following that, the old Principal continued to give Wang Xiao many suggestions. His analysis was very clear, and he was very serious about Wang Xiao's current situation. Maybe it was his first time meeting Wang Xiao, and he got such attention from him, which was why he had a lot of face.
Furthermore, Lao Zheng was a very honest person, he did not have the slightest hypocrisy. If an ordinary person were to encounter this kind of situation, even if Wang Xiao wanted to urge them to stay, the other party would intentionally ask for leave, and then have Wang Xiao urge him to stay repeatedly. Because only in this way would there be a way out. But the Lao Zheng did not do so. From this, it could be seen that he was very direct and honest.
After offering some advice to Wang Xiao, Lao Zheng then said: "This world is really strange. Chinese medicine originated from within the country, but the people there do not believe in Chinese medicine.
What the Lao Zheng said was all true, because Wang Xiao had gone to those developed countries in the West before. The citizens of those countries were more interested in Chinese medicine, especially the rich people of those countries, almost all of them using Chinese medicine.
It was because they knew that using western medicine would cause great harm to the body and its side effects. The harm to the body caused by using traditional Chinese medicine is very small, even negligible. Many wealthy people in the West believed that using traditional Chinese medicine not only did no harm to the body, but also had certain benefits.
However, in the country, whenever Chinese medicine was mentioned, there would be many people attacking, cursing and swearing at all sorts of scams. The effects were bad, and so on. However, one could not blame these people. Instead, it was the unscrupulous Chinese medical experts who had ruined the reputation of the traditional Chinese medicine. As time went on, most of the people in the country lost faith in Chinese medicine.
However, it was different in the West. As long as one went to the West to manage Chinese medicine, they would have superior medical skills. Furthermore, those people wanted to be able to establish a foothold abroad, so they had to be more attentive. If those unscrupulous people in the country continue to disregard the reputation of traditional Chinese medicine for the sake of benefits, over time, traditional Chinese medicine will fall into an irrecoverable situation.
However, a person's power was limited, and Wang Xiao's reputation in the Chinese medical community was not that big, so to be able to save the entire Chinese medicine with his own strength was just a pipe dream. This was how many people believed that a single person could become a doctor in their own right.
The Lao Zheng continued to speak to Wang Xiao. "Sect Leader Wang, if you want to develop Chinese medicine within the country, the results are not ideal and are very difficult. Because most of the companies in the country have to work overtime, and most of the families in the country have to have many children, those parents, for the sake of their family's few children and their wives and parents' lives, wish that they could work seventeen to eighteen hours a day and earn a bit more money every month. And the speed of Chinese medicine treatment is not as obvious as Western medicine, so they would rather choose Chinese medicine. "
Wang Xiao also deeply felt that the Lao Zheng's words were logical. It was true that the speed of Chinese medicine treatment was inferior to that of Western medicine. If a patient had a malignant tumor in their body and was treated with traditional Chinese medicine, although there were no side effects and the damage to their body was not great, it would take at least one month, or even three to five months, to completely remove the malignant tumor in their body. However, the majority of the family members were many. Once the patient became the main force of the family, how could they have the time to slowly recuperate? Everyone wished that they could recover tomorrow and continue to earn money.
If he used western medicine, he didn't need to recuperate slowly nor did he need three to five months. As long as he performed an operation, he would be able to recover in at most a week. Although the side effects were great and were not good for the body, most patients did not care about such things. They would never consider the consequences, and only pay attention to the effects in front of their eyes.
"From your point of view, can't you really change this hospital into a Chinese Medical Hospital?" Wang Xiao asked.
Lao Zheng said: "It's not impossible, but we can't rush it. If we are in a hurry to make quick progress, the reforms that we've gone through will affect the business here and our income. The hospital has so many people on it, so the annual expenditure will be quite large and it won't be a small amount."
"What do you propose?" Wang Xiao asked directly.
Di Loong was bored to death, and was too lazy to listen to the discussion between Wang Xiao and the Lao Zheng. He was not interested in handling such matters in the hospital at all.
When Wang Xiao asked the Lao Zheng what good suggestion he had, he became spirited, as though he wanted to display his ability and talent in front of Wang Xiao. After all, Wang Xiao was his new leader. Thus, in front of his new leader, he had to make a move and make a valuable suggestion. He did not want his new leader to feel that he was mediocre and mediocre.
In order to attract more patients, if we want to achieve the purpose of promoting the spirit of Chinese medicine, as well as making money, we can make a new rule, as long as we go to a patient in the Chinese medicine department, we can reduce the treatment fees and so on. "In the future, when the reputation of the Chinese medicine department increases, I will cancel these rules …"
Wang Xiao felt that the solutions proposed by the Lao Zheng were not bad, so he decided to follow his suggestion.
"Sect Leader Wang, what do you think of my suggestions?" Lao Zheng asked.
"Good, not bad. I'll do as you say. I'll leave these matters to you in the future." Wang Xiao nodded.
"Leave it to me. Are you going to send someone to supervise it?" Lao Zheng asked.
"No need, I'll leave everything to you. I trust you, I can see that you have the ability." Wang Xiao said.
"Thank you, Sect Leader Wang, for your trust, for handing over such an important mission to me. Don't worry, I will do my best to handle this matter."
Wang Xiao thought of something, then asked: "Was the boss behind the scenes very unlucky before, and raised the treatment fees here very high? And as long as it's a list written here, other than the amount of money, no one would recognize any of the other words, right?"
Lao Zheng smiled awkwardly: Yes, but you can't blame him, because this is the market. The current market is as such, not just us, almost everywhere else is the same.
That was true, Lao Zheng was a real person, what he said was indeed the truth. In all the hospitals now, which one was not, and which hospital had a fee slip, the patient would recognize what was written on it, the name of the drug, and so on.
Wang Xiao said: "Tell the people below that from now on, all the fonts on the list must be written in block letters, so that all patients will be able to understand the contents."
