Chapter 1173 - 1131: Being a Gracious Host
The Forbidden City, previously known as the Forbidden City, is the essence of ancient Chinese court architecture and the first stop for Lin Jie and others visiting the Capital City.Lin Jie and his group hired a tour guide to give them detailed explanations about the Forbidden City.
The number of tourists visiting the Forbidden City is truly large, even at this blazing noon.
Lin Jie, An Kexin, and others had no choice but to follow the crowd slowly touring around.
"It's really hot!"
Having already changed into casual cool clothes, Lin Jie carefully walked in the shade, gulping down several mouthfuls of water, and couldn't help but complain: "It must be over thirty-seven degrees, how is it hotter than Binhai."
"Don't forget Binhai is near the sea!" An Kexin reminded him.
She looked fearfully at the glaring sunlight outside the shade and said, "Ah Jie, with weather like this, climbing the Great Wall will tan your skin, and there's a high risk of heatstroke."
Lin Jie felt the rolling heat wave, glanced ahead at Lin Miao and Kemeng, who were eagerly listening to the guide, and decided: "If tomorrow's temperatures are still this high, let's skip the Great Wall and go shopping instead."
"Waiting till September or October when the weather is cooler to climb the Great Wall is not too late."
"Alright, we'll follow your plan!"
An Kexin replied cheerfully, took the water handed by Lin Jie, drank a few sips, and pondered before saying: "Ah Jie, I've suddenly thought the temporary measures suggested by the military for a field hospital are somewhat necessary."
"Oh, why do you think it's necessary?" Lin Jie casually asked.
An Kexin softly said: "Ah Jie, think about it, Anlin Hospital currently has close to six hundred patients, but there are over four hundred tumor patients."
"To exaggerate, our Anlin Hospital can almost be called a tumor specialty hospital."
"In this situation, there is a significant shortage of patients in departments like plastic surgery and ENT."
"Furthermore, the elite foreign doctors coming for exchanges also need patients with various conditions to provide real-time guidance and teach surgeries."
Lin Jie was stunned.
An Kexin's words woke him up; indeed, the types of patients Anlin Hospital was treating were too homogeneous.
He straightforwardly stated: "Kexin, you're right, as a comprehensive hospital, Anlin Hospital is somewhat limping. This was my oversight, only looking at patient numbers while neglecting patient categories."
"This batch of exchange doctors undoubtedly has high proficiency, as they come from different departments of renowned hospitals worldwide. Besides treating tumors, they surely excel in treating other conditions."
"Kexin, it's just that..."
Lin Jie expressed concern: "Even with military aid, building a field hospital and adding hundreds of beds, despite warnings and reminders issued in advance, it's likely that most patients coming to Anlin Hospital are still tumor patients."
An Kexin considered and said: "This indeed poses a problem."
"Refusing to admit diagnosed tumor patients is possible, but it would severely impact our hospital's reputation."
She thought for a while, brightening up, and said: "Ah Jie, see if this works?"
Before Lin Jie could ask, An Kexin continued: "Most of these exchange doctors are known individuals from famous international hospitals, bearing titles of chief and deputy chief doctors."
"In China, they could all be dubbed world-renowned doctors."
"Let's leverage their titles, heavily advertise, and say that to celebrate Anlin Hospital's opening, we specifically invited expert doctors from famous hospitals worldwide to hold expert clinic activities at Anlin Hospital."
Saying this, An Kexin's thoughts became much clearer, and she enthusiastically said: "We introduce three to five international medical experts weekly, publish their detailed resumes, and clearly state the fields they specialize in."
"Patients attracted by these ads wouldn't predominantly be tumor patients."
She excitedly said: "Why not make it grand, a joint celebration clinic by a hundred of the world's top hospitals, gathering up a hundred hospitals, wouldn't it be stylish and unique?"
"Can we gather a hundred?" Lin Jie was somewhat skeptical!
"Why not!"
An Kexin confidently said: "At the opening, over sixty medical institutions came to celebrate, plus those connecting with us during this period, getting a hundred is no problem."
"If not enough, we can find some domestic hospitals to fill in."
She chuckled: "Honestly, though our hospital's opening was grand, covered by CCTV and Binhai TV Station, we haven't held any events yet."
"Inviting expert doctors from the world's top hundred hospitals to sit for consultations could be a significant benefit for domestic patients, wouldn't it be?"
Lin Jie chuckled: "Certainly a major event, the world's top hundred hospitals are far more impressive than the top ten."
An Kexin glared at Lin Jie and proudly said: "Phoenix Mountain Hospital has been conducting free clinics, appearing in newspapers, TV news, and hiring internet ghostwriters for promotion, attracting some patients seeking treatment."
"But their activities are too petty."
"When our world's top hundred hospital clinic event kicks off, it will surely press Phoenix Mountain Hospital down hard."
Lin Jie shook his head and smiled: "Kexin, don't keep targeting Phoenix Mountain Hospital."
"Our current target is the world's renowned hospitals! Even if a few hospitals in the Phoenix Mountain District flourish and form an aggregation advantage, we are also beneficiaries."
"By the way, how's the situation with Limin Hospital's branch and Tongren Hospital West Branch now?"
Following Anlin Hospital, these two hospitals in the Phoenix Mountain District also opened and started operations.
An Kexin chuckled: "As we predicted, the patients these two hospitals are treating mainly transferred from Limin Hospital and Tongren Hospital, and direct patients are few."
At this moment, An Kexin's phone rang.
A minute or two later, after hanging up, An Kexin angrily said: "Ah Jie, we can't tolerate them anymore."
"What happened?" Lin Jie asked with concern.
An Kexin angrily said: "A doctor from Tongren Hospital West Branch was caught red-handed secretly copying videos in our hospital's video materials room."
Lin Jie immediately frowned.
Limin Hospital's branch and Tongren Hospital West Branch are close to Anlin Hospital, within a twenty-minute drive.
Encouraged by the point system, Anlin Hospital hosts genuine lectures or decent teaching surgeries almost every night, attracting doctors from those hospitals.
Given the good relations among hospitals, Anlin Hospital hasn't stopped them.
But secretly copying video materials is a bit much.
The exchange doctors agreed to record the lectures and teaching surgeries on the condition it would only serve Anlin Hospital's internal learning and not be disseminated.
Lin Jie sternly said: "Contact Director Tao Taqing and have him take the person back."
He further decided: "Tighten the access control system, ensure external doctors are not allowed to enter without permission..."
The Forbidden City's area is truly vast, and Lin Jie and others didn't leave until its closing time approached.
Upon exiting the Forbidden City, Lin Jie saw an acquaintance, Nie Yuming, approaching quickly.
As he laughed and said: "Expert Lin, congratulations on your promotion to Major General, entering the ranks of generals!"
"Expert Lin, do you have any important events planned for tonight?"
"If not, don't turn down my invitation, you must let me fulfill my duty as the host and treat you well..."
