Chapter 1146: The Answer in Two or Three Thousand Words

"Did Professor Yang say anything else besides this topic?" Director Meng asked.

Xiao Wu shook his head: "He just said that if we figure out the answer, we should go find him."

“They didn’t say anything else,” Zhang Lin added.

"What was your expression when you raised the question? Were you serious, or smiling, and did you seem deep in thought?" Director Meng tried to obtain as much information as possible.

Zhang Lin shook his head; Xiao Wu was already focused on watching Dr. Shi solve the problem.

"Should we ask for outside help? Wen Ruzheng from the pathology department? Wen Zhong from the spinal surgery department?" someone suggested.

These two are considered prodigies at Sanbo Hospital and have a certain reputation. There are also Song Ziming and Xu Zhiliang, who are from the research institute. They definitely can't be invited. Who would invite the question setter to teach them the answers?

External assistance? Even if we bring in external assistance and they can answer the question, it won't demonstrate the strength of the radiology department.

Director Meng made a quick decision: "No, we must be independent and self-reliant in our updates. We can't call on outside help, lest we lose face for our radiology department."

"Director Meng, to answer this question, we must search all the current papers to see if we can find the counterexamples I just mentioned. We also need a thorough understanding of the history, current status, and cutting-edge developments of X-ray imaging technology. Otherwise, it will be difficult to provide an answer. To provide a solution, we must conduct rigorous argumentation, either positive or negative. Both approaches are acceptable, but we need certain materials." Dr. Shi felt that he had completed the analysis of the question and was confident in his ability to solve it.

"Professor Zhang, is your research institute short of radiologists?" Dr. Shi couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Lin, unaware of his intention, replied, "I haven't heard of it."

"Oh!" Dr. Shi was a little disappointed.

This problem is indeed very complicated. Director Meng almost made a fool of himself. He just dismissed the two brothers with a few words. Fortunately, Dr. Shi came over immediately, otherwise it would have been extremely embarrassing. This topic requires a paper to rigorously demonstrate, and he dismissed them with just a few words. What a close call.

Is there a time limit for answering the questions?

"Dr. Shi asked."

Xiao Wu shook his head: "No." "Teachers, please go back first. It will take at least a week to answer this question. I need to consult a lot of literature, and I estimate that the argument will need to be two or three thousand words, and that may not even be enough. I will notify you to come and pick it up after I have finished answering the question, how about that?" Dr. Shi said to Zhang Lin and Xiao Wu.

Since there's no time limit and someone can help answer the questions, why not?

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news."

Xiao Wu and Zhang Lin were about to leave, leaving the task of answering the questions to them. However, they hadn't expected the radiology department to take their questions so seriously, nor had they expected that the questions would require a paper of several thousand words. It seemed that their skills were still a bit lacking.

After thinking about it for several days, Dean Xia finally figured out the wolf pack management model proposed by Yang Ping. He decided to emulate Yang Ping's management model to manage the Clinical Medical College, and even to copy it.

After careful consideration, he convened a meeting with the deans of several affiliated hospitals to discuss the establishment of a clinical medical college. Before officially launching the plan, they needed to meet and exchange opinions, which would be beneficial to the progress of the plan.

At the meeting, apart from Dean Zou of the First Affiliated Hospital who had a smile on his face, the other vice deans all had serious expressions and a hint of hostility on their faces. The meeting was already full of tension before it even started.

They were clearly the presidents of the affiliated hospital of Nandu Medical University, who were independent in their own right. But now they were to become vice presidents in effect, and would be under President Xia's leadership from now on. They would lose their independence in both personnel and finance. They were somewhat dissatisfied, and this dissatisfaction was written all over their faces.

"These bastards, all so arrogant. If it weren't for my wolf pack management style, I could have easily subdued them all." Dean Xia glanced at the deans and muttered to himself.

Dean Xia had sharp eyes and a loud voice. Coupled with his tall and burly physique, he completely overwhelmed the other deans with his presence.

"Gentlemen, thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this meeting. I'm sure you've all received the resolution to establish the Clinical Medical College, but this is the first time we've officially met. Before we officially launch the establishment plan, I think it's necessary for us to sit down together and discuss how to do it. This isn't just my business; it's everyone's business. I know some of you are unhappy about this. Whatever your thoughts, communication is very important. If there are any issues, put them on the table and discuss them together to find a solution. Today's meeting is for discussing and solving problems. We can debate, we can argue, we can even bang on the table. If you don't speak up during the meeting and then complain afterward, I'm sorry, but even the biggest complaints are meaningless; they're just your own grumbling."

Dean Xia didn't want to use any bureaucratic language. We're all colleagues and deans, so let's be straightforward. Today we're here to discuss and solve problems.

Everyone was familiar with Dean Xia and knew his capabilities. Sanbo Hospital had made rapid progress under his leadership, even producing a Nobel laureate—a top-tier institution nationwide. In terms of achievements, if he said he was second, no one dared claim to be first. So, after this down-to-earth opening, everyone looked at each other, unsure how to proceed. Should he offer some polite, official pleasantries, or truly speak frankly? They were unsure, worried that Dean Xia was just using this as a pretext to elicit information from them.

Seeing that everyone remained silent, Dean Xia surveyed the room: "What? Did you think I, Xia Changjiang, was setting a trap for you? Don't worry, I, Xia Changjiang, always do things openly and honestly, and I never resort to underhanded tactics. If you have something to say, just say it. If you won't say it, I'll say it for you. Nandu Medical University and its affiliated hospitals, Sanbo Hospital, and Sanbo Research Institute are about to undergo a radical reorganization. Sanbo Hospital and your affiliated hospitals will form a group called the Clinical Medical College. As you all know, I will be the dean of the Clinical Medical College. This has already been officially appointed. You're all thinking to yourselves that you were all deans with great power before, but now, with this change, you are nominally deans, but in reality, you've become vice deans. This is a huge difference. Before, you had personnel and financial power, but now you have nothing. The pen is in my hand. So your worries are written all over your faces, aren't they?"

I've met straightforward people before, but I've never seen anyone speak so bluntly at this level. Is this something that can be said in public?

The hospital directors blushed with embarrassment at what they were told. These words struck a nerve. The director of the Fourth Affiliated Hospital, holding back his anger, said, "We are all here to serve the development of the hospital and the medical profession. Don't talk about power. It's as if we're here to fight for power. We're here to fight for the vital interests of thousands of employees and for the future of the hospital."

Dean Xia hated this kind of person the most, who was two-faced, so he immediately said, "Well said. If that's the case, then it's easy to handle. Let you, the thousands of employees, decide the future of the hospital and their interests. After the hospital is established, the hospital's president and vice presidents will all be elected by the hospital employees. I will personally lead a team to organize and supervise this vote."
