Chapter 1449 - 579: Tackling Challenges
"Hello, Dean Bai! What instructions do you have for me?"
Maintaining respect for leadership is essential.
"Haha, not really instructions. Xiao Zhou, I just need to update you on something."
Vice Dean Bai’s attitude towards him was exceptionally friendly.
There are no eternal enemies in this world, only everlasting interests.
Zhou Can and Vice Dean Bai had once been at each other’s throats, with their relationship deadlocked. Who would have thought that they would become close friends a few years later?
"Please go ahead!"
Zhou Can was secretly puzzled about what could be so important this early in the morning.
"Didn’t Dean Ye and I discuss arranging a position for you in the Quality Control Department last time? We recommended your information two months ago, and now the initial assessment period is over. It’s currently at the crucial final review stage. There are basically no problems with your qualifications, and the internal support is decent, but without the say-so from Assistant Dean Qin, it remains pending. I inquired about it for you yesterday; the competition is fierce, and your chances are at most around forty percent. You need to find a way to build a rapport with Assistant Dean Qin."
Vice Dean Bai must have gone drinking with someone last night.
The gathering was undoubtedly quite high-end.
The participants were important leaders within the hospital and related department heads.
That Vice Dean Bai could keep Zhou Can’s matter in mind amidst such an occasion was truly precious.
"Thank you, I really appreciate it. You’ve put in so much effort for my sake, I don’t know how to repay you!"
Zhou Can expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
"Don’t be polite with me, okay? Whether you can get into the Quality Control Department hinges on Assistant Dean Qin. Do you understand what I mean?"
Even though Vice Dean Bai is a vice dean and the deputy leader of the Quality Control Department, he’s ultimately just a deputy; this kind of crucial personnel appointment requires the head’s approval.
Assistant Dean Qin is also a hospital-level leader, and in terms of rank, is actually a bit below this administrative vice dean.
However, each hospital leader has a clear division of responsibilities, each managing their own domain.
If it’s not their area, even a vice dean can’t interfere.
The current management system at Tuya Hospital is still the old setup, with only one assistant dean, lacking effective checks and balances, leaving Assistant Dean Qin with significant real power.
"I understand! I understand! I’ll think of a way!"
Zhou Can’s mind was already contemplating how to build rapport with Assistant Dean Qin.
This task seemed quite challenging.
Mainly because he wasn’t familiar with Assistant Dean Qin, who holding this matter back, already spoke volumes.
After serving as the deputy leader of the operating room for so long, Zhou Can had gained some insight into management.
Both Vice Dean Bai and Vice Dean Ye recommended Zhou Can for the Quality Control Department, and from Vice Dean Bai’s words, it seemed that there was more support for Zhou Can than just them. This inevitably put considerable pressure on Assistant Dean Qin.
Unable to go against public opinion, yet unwilling to let Zhou Can enter the Quality Control Department, the issue was simply being stalled.
Stalling tactics are often quite effective in many situations.
As for why Assistant Dean Qin didn’t want Zhou Can in the Quality Control Department, it mostly boiled down to personal interests.
Everyone wants to place their own trusted aides or at least people close to them.
Zhou Can had overturned the previous assistant dean two years ago; Assistant Dean Qin appeared cordial towards him but was very wary at heart.
What if Zhou Can got angered by something and overturned him too?
Out of self-preservation and consideration of other interests, he certainly wanted to keep Zhou Can out.
If Assistant Dean Qin wished to cultivate a distant relative, student, or someone trustworthy, naturally the spot would be reserved for them.
So directly approaching Assistant Dean Qin would have minimal effect.
Unless Zhou Can pledged loyalty to Assistant Dean Qin, willing to be a compliant ’lackey,’ Qin wouldn’t even consider it.
If he did so, he would lose his dignity and backbone.
Zhou Can wanted to move to the Quality Control Department part-time for better future development, not to become a lackey.
He had ambitions to compete for the dean position in the future.
Before ending the call, Vice Dean Bai specifically advised, "Don’t try those direct cash, antiques, cigarettes, alcohol, or tea tactics. It’s strictly enforced now; no one would accept such blatant gifts. Plus, if you do so, it would only backfire, making Assistant Dean Qin belittle you, thinking you have a moral issue."
The law is strict; bribery and corruption are illegal.
Gift-giving now requires strategy and skill.
"Understood."
Zhou Can never considered sending money or antiques.
After ending the call with Vice Dean Bai, he began pondering how to get Assistant Dean Qin to agree.
Directly approaching Assistant Dean Qin wouldn’t work, so what other options were there?
It seemed Dean Zhu was the only one who could influence Assistant Dean Qin’s decision.
As for the secretary above Dean Zhu, he hardly dealt with these specific matters, only focusing on guiding principles.
For now, it was best to solve the Emergency Department operating room issues first.
After finishing the call, Dr. Xu had just changed into his work clothes and came out of the office.
"Xiao Zhou, time to work!"
Zhou Can was now a mainstay in the Emergency Department operating room, with Dr. Xu entrusting many important Level 3 surgeries to him.
"Teacher, there’s something I’d like to discuss with you and Director Lou."
Zhou Can seized the opportunity to say.
Dr. Xu gave Zhou Can a deep look.
"It seems this matter is significant; let’s deal with it quickly before heading into the operating room."
"Thank you, teacher!"
"Why are you still standing there? Go to Director Lou’s office!"
