Vice Dean Bai and Vice Director Ye advise Zhou Can on pursuing a future in hospital management, focusing on quality control. They arrange for him to become the Assistant Chair of the operating room, a stepping stone that will allow him to pursue further education and eventually enter management.

Do not underestimate the position of deputy leader; for Zhou Can, it signifies a substantial advancement.

Sometimes, an action that appears minor can represent a monumental leap in one's life.

Regardless of Zhou Can's past accomplishments, he was merely a 'foot soldier.' Now, assuming the role of deputy leader in the emergency operating room is akin to being promoted to an 'officer.'

There exists a fundamental disparity in standing between officers and foot soldiers.

Officers possess authority and certain prerogatives, whereas the duty of foot soldiers is to follow directives.

Upon learning of Zhou Can's appointment as deputy leader, Jiang Wei and the others in the operating room were greatly uplifted and sincerely rejoiced for him.

Zhou Can is their leader, the true chief surgeon guiding this surgical team.

Their destinies and futures are closely intertwined with Zhou Can.

Witnessing Zhou Can's promotion means they too can anticipate reaping benefits, hence their genuine happiness.

This convergence of mutual interests and emotional solidarity solidifies them as Zhou Can's most unwavering allies.

After concluding the day's work, Dr. Xu convened a brief meeting for all doctors and nurses in the operating room within the conference chamber.

Everyone attended, irrespective of whether they were on duty.

The emergency department's operating room has undergone significant growth and development, now boasting twenty-two surgical doctors, six ward physicians, and thirteen surgical nurses.

This constitutes a rather substantial surgical contingent.

The surgical nursing team comprises thirteen individuals, with three assigned to Zhou Can's team.

However, this arrangement faces no opposition.

This is because Zhou Can's team has consistently executed approximately 60% of the emergency department's total surgical procedures. In the preceding two months, Zhou Can deliberately reduced his caseload, yet the revenue remained stable.

Presently, the majority of surgeries he undertakes are classified as Level 3 procedures.

Unless they present exceptional complexity, he typically delegates Level 1 and Level 2 surgeries to others.

His surgical proficiency has reached the Director level; engaging in tasks alongside interns, resident trainees, fellows, or residents would be beneath his caliber.

"Thank you all for promptly attending this meeting. I understand your time is valuable, so I will be concise. We have two primary announcements today."

Dr. Xu seldom calls meetings for the operating room personnel.

Previously, with a smaller staff, any necessary communication could be handled verbally during work hours.

With the current larger team, meetings have become the most efficient method of dissemination.

Furthermore, an expanded staff necessitates formal procedures and a sense of occasion.

Informal verbal exchanges can sometimes appear too casual.

Maintaining the rigor and standards of a major hospital is challenging without structure.

Utilizing meetings to relay important directives from upper management, announce departmental decisions, and confirm significant appointments lends an air of implicit authority, rendering them seemingly definitive and unalterable.

"First, our emergency department operating room is flourishing, with performance consistently on the rise, a testament to everyone's collective efforts and dedication. The hospital is currently navigating multifaceted reforms at an accelerated pace. We must all elevate our awareness, persistently enhance our professional standards. Additionally, the reinforcement of safety and service consciousness is imperative. In accordance with the latest directives from departmental leadership, we will continue implementing a merit-based system: greater work yields greater reward; lesser work results in lesser reward. Individuals whose professional standards consistently fall short risk dismissal."

The emergency department, having evolved from modest origins with Zhou Can at its operational core, and through the combined endeavors of all, is now taking definitive form, finally resembling a proper emergency department.

"Moreover, the department may emphasize specialized individual skills in the future. For instance, individuals with exceptional diagnostic abilities will primarily handle consultations. Provided their qualifications suffice, even training doctors may participate in consultations. Those with strong surgical capabilities will focus on performing surgeries and reduce their consultation load, much like Zhou Can, who dedicates only half a day per week to consultations. Naturally, he is an exception, and you cannot directly compare yourselves to him. Limiting consultations to a mere half-day weekly is a privilege afforded to chief physicians."

This final remark elicited laughter from the assembly.

Zhou Can indeed benefits from preferential treatment in numerous aspects.

Rules are not immutable; the hospital's administration is pragmatic and, when encountering exceptional talent, they appropriately relax constraints.

It is precisely the emphasis and cultivation of talent by Tuya Hospital's administration that has propelled Zhou Can to his current standing.

In reality, he represents just one instance among many talented individuals at Tuya Hospital.

Numerous others have received comparable developmental opportunities, though perhaps not to the identical degree.

To illustrate, at the outset, the hospital poured exceptional resources into cultivating the PhD graduate Du Leng. Initially, Du Leng received far more benefits than Zhou Can. However, Du Leng's own lack of effort led the hospital to sideline him. Concurrently, they ramped up their support for Zhou Can, who was merely an undergraduate. Now, Du Leng struggles immensely to keep pace with Zhou Can. Both joined the hospital simultaneously. Back then, Du Leng shone brightly like a celestial body, while Zhou Can was as insignificant as particles of dust. Zhou Can's personal journey serves as a testament to Tuya Hospital's excellence in nurturing and identifying promising individuals. It is crucial to remember that, even presently, Zhou Can's academic qualification remains at the undergraduate level. Once the hospital's higher-ups recognized his potential, they did not obstruct his career progression. On the contrary, they amplified their backing and resources, showcasing the astute leadership of the institution.
