The intern's lawyer wife

"Come in."

Gao Wei's voice came from the office.

Upon entering the room, Jian Yifan saw a large office with a painting of "Rising Sun" directly in front of her. Vice Dean Gao, wearing an executive jacket, sat on an executive sofa, with three directors sitting upright beside him.

Jian Yifan noticed a coffee table and a comfortable sofa on the other side of the office, but they didn't sit down.

The executive sofa is uncomfortable and hard, but it's also very comfortable because sitting on it isn't about discussing things—it's about setting the tone. A sofa can be for discussing things, but the executive sofa is definitely for listening to your report.

Jian Yifan liked sitting on a comfortable sofa in her past life because she was approachable. Therefore, it can be concluded that this Vice Dean Gao is very accustomed to power!

There's no way around it, he's a second-in-command; he likes whatever he lacks.

The three directors recognized the young man next to Wang Min as the "prestigious" intern from yesterday.

Jian Yifan was pleased to see the proposal on the table; the three old men were very efficient. As for whether it was adopted by Dean Gao, he had no idea.

Gao Wei: "Old Wang, what's up?"

Wang Min: "Vice President Gao, I have discovered a case of novel H1N1 influenza virus in my outpatient clinic. I am here to report to you."

Gao Wei picked up his teacup and smiled, "Every year when the seasons change, there are new H1N1 viruses. It's not like we haven't seen them before. Xiao Wang, you're making a fuss over nothing."

Wang Min: "Vice Dean Gao, this case is different. The child has a history of contact with foreign countries and the clinical manifestations are also very severe."

"Abroad? Which abroad?"

Gao Wei slowly put down his teacup.

Wang Min looked at Jian Yifan.

Jian Yifan keenly noticed the change in how they addressed each other during their conversation.

Wang Min addressed him as "Vice Dean Gao," while Gao Wei changed from "Old Wang" to "Little Wang," clearly indicating his displeasure.

Originally, this virus was just emerging and wouldn't have attracted the attention of the leaders. In addition, Wang Min is an honest person. Although adding "deputy" to his title is correct, he doesn't understand the leaders' minds. Now, things are even more difficult.

For leaders who like to flaunt their authority, you have to make them feel comfortable first, and things will be easier to handle.

Therefore, regarding the way Jian Yifan addresses people...

"Vice Dean Gao, I saw on a forum in the United States that there are sporadic cases of severe pneumonia of unknown cause. The initial symptoms are somewhat similar to those of the child we admitted. His father also came back from the United States, so we are worried that he may have brought the new virus back."

Gao Wei frowned slightly.

It wasn't because of the illness, but because the way I was addressed was really jarring.

The three leaders thought to themselves: Wang Min is ignorant, and you, young man, are also ignorant.

Like Wang Min, Jian Yifan couldn't flatter anyone; a deputy was a deputy.

Besides, Wang Min is already being called the deputy, so there's no point in Jian Yifan correcting her now.

Gao Wei: "Did you verify the information in the post from overseas?"

Jian Yifan: "Too lazy to verify."

"Nonsense!"

Gao Wei slammed his hand on the table, causing the teacups to jump.

The director was startled and straightened his back.

Simplified yet Traditional: ? ? ?

Slamming the table?

What an imposing official attitude!

"Vice Dean Gao, we'll go verify it right away," Wang Min said hastily, already regretting bringing Jian Yifan along.

Gao Wei angrily retorted, "Yesterday, Secretary Wu called a meeting with me and Dean Lin, emphasizing that medical staff cannot rely on hearsay and must present rigorous medical data. This is how we are responsible to the people. Your excuse of 'too lazy to verify' shows that you don't care about the lives of ordinary people!"

Jian Yifan: "It's because we take people's lives too seriously that we're too lazy to verify anything."

Gao Wei pointed at Jian Yifan: "Did you say something a medical worker would say?"

"We are doctors, not journalists. Verifying the truth of news is not our responsibility. Our responsibility is to treat and save lives."

Jian Yifan fearlessly said:

"What's the point of us verifying the veracity of a medical news story from the US?"

"So what if it's true? We've already seen a new virus here. Are you saying the US will develop drugs to treat our people?"

"So what if it's fake news? We've already seen a new type of virus here."

"We don't have time to deal with that kind of stuff in America!"

"Our focus is on the fact that a new virus has emerged here."

Upon hearing this, the three directors agreed that it made sense.

However... you've offended Vice Dean Gao right away. Given his narrow-mindedness, and the fact that new H1N1 viruses appear every year with the changing seasons, he won't take it seriously.

Jian Yifan continued, "As grassroots medical staff, when a new virus emerges, our first thought is to find the top leader. But Secretary Wu is not here, so Director Wang brought me here to find Vice President Gao as soon as possible, hoping that you would take charge of the situation."

Upon hearing this, Gao Wei paused for a moment.

I keenly picked out the key point of this statement—with Secretary Wu absent, the first thing the grassroots medical staff thought of was me, the vice president, to take charge of the overall situation; it was none of President Lin Zhen's business.

"Vice Dean Gao, we apologize for disturbing you. We'll head out now," Jian Yifan said.

"slow!"

Gao Wei called out to the two of them.

If they leave, they'll report this to Secretary Wu or Dean Lin, and won't come looking for me.

In the hearts of medical staff, Secretary Wu is number one, and I am no longer in second place.

"After some thought, I realized that since a new virus has emerged, regardless of whether it is dangerous or not, we should take it very seriously. This is about putting the safety of the people first, and as the vice president, I must take charge of this overall situation!"

Gao Wei was full of fighting spirit and felt honored to call himself "vice dean" for the first time.

Jian Yifan addressed him as Vice Dean Gao repeatedly, which made him feel comfortable.

He wanted to prove to Secretary Wu, who was away on a business trip, that when he wasn't around, who was in charge? That guy surnamed Lin was just a freeloader, nobody.

Wang Min stared blankly at Jian Yifan.

With just a few casual words, this intern managed to ignite the enthusiasm of Vice Dean Gao, who always believed that "if you don't do it, you won't make mistakes."

There is something there.

Others know how to motivate their subordinates.

Simplicity and complexity are reversed, and one knows how to motivate leaders.

Whether it's the three directors or Vice President Gao.

Gao Wei stood up, and Wang Min and the three directors took out their notebooks to listen to his arrangements.

Gao Wei raised one finger: "First, regarding the crucial issue of the new virus, we should first find the key to solving the problem!"

The group was a little confused: ? ? ?

How do I take these notes?

While taking notes, Jian Yifan said, "Oh, I understand. It means to immediately isolate and treat the sick child, and to track and observe those who have been in close contact with the child."

Several directors: !!!

One is a piece of nonsensical literature, the other is a divine understanding!

There's nothing I can do!

Jian Yifan cursed inwardly: What kind of bullshit is this, this "key issue" and "key issue"? Are you just here to eat and do nothing?

If I were to return to my former glory, the first thing I'd do is dismiss you, you old codger! All you do all day is flaunt your official power instead of doing any real work!

Wang Min tugged at him: "I told you not to talk back and to listen to the leader's instructions."

Jian Yifan: "Sorry, I've said too much again. Vice Dean Gao, please continue."

"Secondly..." Gao Wei said, "Now that we've discovered this new virus, this crucial issue, we medical staff must now define this crucial issue as the crux of the problem!"

Jian Yifan: "Oh, I see. It means collecting samples from sick children and sending them to the provincial CDC for gene sequencing to confirm the virus type. Sorry for being so talkative."

"Third..." Gao Wei continued, "In dealing with this crucial issue of the new virus, we should start with the crux of the problem!"

Jian Yifan: "Oh, I see. It means that this type of novel influenza virus may be effective against neuraminidase inhibitors, such as oseltamivir."

Gao Wei was genuinely annoyed: "If you're so capable, why don't you do it yourself?"

"No, no, boss, please tell me."

"It's alright, I misspoke, it doesn't matter."

"Okay, I was just talking nonsense, just take it with a grain of salt," Jian Yifan said. "Fourth, the hospital should activate its emergency plan, stockpile protective equipment, and train medical staff. Fifth, I suggest reporting to the Municipal Health Commission to activate the joint prevention and control mechanism."

Several directors: ? ? ?

This kid has said everything he could think of.

And it's very professional.

Jian Yifan quickly said, "I'm sorry, Vice Dean Gao, I've said a bit too much. I won't participate in your discussions of important matters, so I'll leave now."

Jian Yifan bowed and left with the notebook.

"Who is he?" Gao Wei asked, annoyed. "He talks so much!"

Director Liu: "It's that intern we were talking about yesterday, the one who gave the optimization suggestions."

"An intern?" Gao Wei asked incredulously.

This intern actually anticipated everything he had predicted!

Wang Min: "Vice Dean Gao, is Xiao Jian right?"

"Yes, absolutely right, that's exactly what I meant!"

"Is there anything else you'd like to add?"

Gao Wei thought to himself, "You brought an intern here, and he's so capable that he's said everything I wanted to say. What else do I need to add?"

Damn it, I finally wanted to get some serious work done and assign tasks to my subordinates, but I ended up being assigned everything by an intern.

Director Liu: "Dean Gao, this intern is dedicated to the hospital, and the proposal he wrote is really good."

Gao Wei: "He likes to offer advice everywhere, right?"

Thinking of that poised and elegant intern, Director Liu couldn't help but say, "Perhaps... Dr. Jian is too eager to get into the 'department'."
