Chapter 2265: Taking over more than 20 interns

As soon as he entered the lobby on the first floor, a pretty waitress walked straight up to Bian Mu and greeted him politely.

"Secretary-General Cai and the others have been here for a while. Teacher Bian, this way please!"

"Thank you for your trouble!" Bian Mu said politely, then followed the waitress toward the elevator.

"Jinlong" is a four-star+ hotel. Bian Mu had been here a few times before with Qi Yuewei, Lu Yisi and others. The decoration here is average on the surface, but the reception capacity in all aspects is comparable to that of local five-star hotels. It is low-key and luxurious, and always exudes a certain restrained and particularity.

The small elevator is a private elevator that hotel staff can only use by swiping their cards. Newcomers usually can't find it at all.

On the 10th floor, the elevator doors opened silently. The female attendant politely gestured for Bian Mu to enter the 10th floor.

"Teacher Bian! The fifth room on the left, facing south!" As she spoke, the female waitress, who was behind, rushed ahead to lead the way for Bian Mu. It has to be said that the service staff of this star-rated hotel are quite professional.

"Thank you for your trouble!" Bian Mu said politely, wondering whether he should give her a 100 yuan tip.

The private room door was even electronically controlled. Although Bian Mu frequently visited luxury hotels, this was the first time he had ever seen such a new type of door.

For some reason, as soon as the door opened, Bian Mu did not rush inside, but stood there steadily for a few seconds.

Fortunately, he had considered things further. Seeing a young waiter come out from inside, he politely made a standard gesture and respectfully invited Bian Mu to enter the banquet.

"You're welcome!" Bian Mu gave the waiter a polite bow and strode confidently into the private room.

Wow! At first glance, this private room is at least 130 square meters in size, with one large and two small rooms. It is divided in half by a sandalwood screen. If you want more space, you can remove the screen; if you want more privacy, you can unfold the screen completely. The professional-grade screen, meticulously crafted by skilled artisans, has an amazing sound insulation effect.

In the distance, a large dining table was packed with more than a dozen guests, mostly men and few women. Cai Huaixin deliberately sat in the seat closest to the door. Clearly, he had gathered the guests, and as the host, Cai Huaixin was chatting happily with two or three guests next to him with a beaming smile!
"Oh! The main guest has arrived! Everyone! This is Director Bian of the 'New Concept' Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic!" Cai Huaixin stood up to introduce him and even clapped his hands.

The other guests immediately joined in, clapping along.

Bian Mu felt somewhat embarrassed by their antics.

"Greetings, teachers! My name is Bian Mu. I am a junior student and I am late. Please forgive my rudeness!" Bian Mu looked around at everyone with a graceful demeanor, showing no stage fright whatsoever.

Cai Huaixin appeared very lively, leading Bian Mu to introduce each of the guests in a clockwise direction.

The newly appointed president of the Municipal Central Hospital... the director of the Provincial Emergency Medical Center...

Vice President of the First Affiliated Hospital of Lijin Medical University...

Vice President of the Provincial People's Hospital...

Director of the General Education Department of Lijin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine
……

They were all leaders in some aspect of the medical, pharmaceutical, or medical academic fields, but their faces were somewhat unfamiliar; Bian Mu had never met any of them before.

After the guests and hosts took their seats again, Cai Huaixin stood in front of the table and spoke very politely. Bian Mu, sitting next to him, finally understood that all the distinguished guests present, including Cai Huaixin, were planning to send one or two interns to the "New Concept" Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic.

If each of the 11 organizations assigns 2 people, then at least 22 so-called interns would be needed! Bian Mu has only opened three branches in total, which means that if each branch is allocated on average, it would need to take in 7 or more people.

"Seriously? They didn't even discuss it beforehand, acting first and informing later?! What is this Cai guy up to?! Does he not respect me at all?!" Thinking of this, Bian Mu naturally felt a surge of anger.

A seemingly very formal internship training and negotiation meeting?!
Judging from this, you two had planned this all along, and you even pretended to respect Bian Mu quite a bit, putting on quite a show of ceremony!

"If I refuse right away, won't I offend everyone on the boat?! Is that guy surnamed Cai drunk?!" Bian Mu's head was buzzing. For a moment, agreeing was wrong, and refusing was even worse. He was really in a dilemma.

"Master! Nice to meet you. I'm from the General Education Department of the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It's a pleasure to meet you! We've reviewed the internship agreements and reports of Xiao Shang and the other two students—they're all top-notch! If Secretary-General Cai hadn't reminded us in time, we wouldn't have realized it yet! This year's graduates have a pretty good theoretical foundation, but their clinical practice is lacking. For the past ten years or so, the school leaders have been quite dissatisfied with this and have been urging us to improve. Don't laugh, but we've been dedicated to researching new internship models, but unfortunately, it's been less than ideal. Now, thankfully, the 'New Concept' Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic has provided us with a very mature internship platform, and Secretary-General Cai has also acted as a go-between. We would appreciate it if you could grant us a few more spots so we can make further arrangements." Wow! That Director Gu who introduced himself was quite eloquent; he "finalized" the deal in just a few words!
Bian Mu pursed her lips slightly, but didn't say a word. She was furious inside!

"Has Cai Huaixin gone mad?! You've already discussed everything, why are you asking me for advice?! No way! I can't just agree to this." Thinking of this, Bian Mu secretly warned himself not to act impulsively, otherwise, his reputation would be ruined overnight.

"Director Gu, right? I just came from the clinic, and my mind is still a bit disoriented. Recently, the number of patients consulting us about early cancer prevention has suddenly increased by more than 30%. As you all know, our clinic doesn't have the capacity to handle that! But, everyone is so kind, insisting on making an appointment and consulting. Many people just sit there and don't want to leave. I have no choice but to patiently persuade them to leave! I can't compare to you all; I have no other options. I run this clinic purely to make a living, not even to support my family. I'm just trying to persuade you! Sigh... I've been busy for half the morning, and my mind is still a bit tense. I'm sorry... My mind is a bit muddled, and I haven't quite adjusted yet. What did you just say? Sending interns to our clinic?! Recent graduates? Or have they already interned at various hospitals for a while before returning to school and being sent here?!" For some reason, Bian Mu suddenly seemed somewhat incoherent, her words not comprehensible.

After hearing this explanation, the distinguished guests present, including Cai Huaixin, were immediately puzzled, and some even had expressions of astonishment on their faces.

Cai Huaixin never dreamed that Bian Mu would pull such a trick on him.

The private room fell completely silent.

1:11, Bian Mu made up his mind that he absolutely could not back down and would try his best to push this matter away completely in a clever way!
