Sent to the countryside, I turned the health center into a top-tier hospital.

The chubby man carrying the camera hoisted the equipment onto his shoulder and pointed the lens at the entrance of the health center.

Wang Tao was standing at the door when he saw the camera pointed at him. He quickly leaned the mop against the wall, straightened his chest, tugged at the hem of his white coat, and was about to grin when Li Fang pulled him aside from behind.

"You're blocking the camera! Move aside, move aside."

Li Fang pulled him to the edge of the flower bed, but while the cameraman turned the lens, she quickly smoothed her hair, ran to the pharmacy entrance, and pretended to look at the medicine list, keeping an eye on the camera lens to see if she was in the picture.

Old Zhou carried his video camera and filmed the entire health center, from the outside to the inside.

The newly replaced large characters "Siping Township Health Center" on the gate, the crooked locust tree in the courtyard, the few newly blooming roses in the flower bed, the gleaming floor tiles in the corridor, the neatly arranged medicine shelves in the pharmacy, and the newly replaced examination bed and dazzling white sheets in the examination room—everything was there.

Wherever the camera pans, people straighten their backs and hold their breath, only daring to secretly relax once the camera moves away.

After photographing the environment, we began interviewing the people.

Liu Wei was the first one pulled over.

Reporter Lin handed him the microphone and asked, "How long have you been working here?" Liu Wei's face turned red instantly, his parted hair reflected the sunlight, and his lips trembled several times before he managed to squeeze out, "More than a year." After saying that, he didn't know whether to look at the camera or the reporter.

Finally, Chen Ping whispered, "Just say whatever you want, like you're having a casual chat," and he slowly relaxed, saying a few words about how much the health center had changed and how many more patients were coming.

Immediately afterwards, Li Fang was summoned.

Li Fang didn't need anyone to teach her. As soon as the microphone was handed to her, she smiled at the camera like a flower. Her newly permed curly hair was fluffy in the camera lens, and one button of her rose-red coat was undone, revealing the collar of her snow-white lab coat underneath.

"Our pharmacy now has a full range of medicines and is well-managed according to national standards. Since Dr. Chen came, the number of patients has increased several times over, and I've had to replace the medicines on my shelves time and time again..."

It took Lin a lot of effort to "snatch" the topic back from her, and she said with a smile, "This pharmacist is really eloquent," before asking about Wang Tao.

Wang Tao couldn't wait any longer. Before the microphone was even handed to him, he started talking, "I'm Wang Tao, an intern doctor. I'm learning acupuncture from Dr. Chen. Dr. Chen's needling technique is amazing. Last time, he used the Seven Stars Chasing the Moon technique to force out the venom of the five-step snake. I saw it with my own eyes. Oh, wait, I wasn't there that time, but I was there when she had amniotic fluid embolism!"

He spoke so fast that he almost got himself confused, and Zhou Jie and Sun Xiaoyan next to him couldn't help but smile.

Chen Ping was the last person interviewed.

Reporter Lin invited him to the door of the clinic and had him stand under the locust tree. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, dappling his shoulders.

Old Zhou set up the tripod and steadily aimed the camera at Chen Ping's face.

"Dr. Chen, could you please briefly describe the situation regarding the rescue of the woman with amniotic fluid embolism that day?"

Chen Ping briefly recounted the rescue process, from the moment the mother coughed, to his diagnosis of amniotic fluid embolism, his arrangement of medication, his administration of acupuncture to stop the bleeding, and finally, the mother's recovery.

He spoke plainly, without embellishment or deliberate modesty, as if he were writing a medical report.

After listening, reporter Lin handed the microphone back to him.

"Given the limited resources in the operating room at the time, did you consider the possibility of failure?"

"I've thought about it."

Chen Ping nodded, paused for a second, and said, "But we can't give up just because we're afraid of failure. We can buy equipment gradually, and we can train people gradually, but patients can't wait. I'm here, so I have to do my best."

Reporter Lin put away the microphone, made a few notes in his notebook, and then waved to Zhang Jianmin, "Secretary Zhang, please give a concluding speech."

Zhang Jianmin had already made preparations.

He stood in front of the locust tree, straightened his collar, and then spoke, his voice louder than when he usually spoke in meetings.

"First of all, on behalf of the Siping Township Party Committee and Government, I would like to thank the county television station for its attention to our grassroots health work."

"The reason why Siping Township Health Center was able to create such a medical miracle under limited conditions is due to Dr. Chen Ping's superb medical skills and high sense of responsibility, as well as the hard work of Director Zhao and all the medical staff."

"This is the pride of our Siping Township, and a microcosm of the county's grassroots healthcare services."

He then changed the subject, his expression shifting from serious to somewhat proud, "At the same time, I also want to take this opportunity to let more people know about our Siping Township. Although Siping Township is located in a mountainous area, it has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and is rich in resources."

"The wild chestnuts on the back mountain, the red persimmons in autumn, the azaleas covering the mountain in spring, and the little river flowing down from the mountain are all beautiful sights that are hard to find in the city."

"It's a pity that the mountain roads are difficult to travel, making it hard for outsiders to get in and for the good things inside to get out. Our township party committee has been working hard to improve the infrastructure, and we welcome attention and support from all sectors of society for the development of Siping Township."

Reporter Lin quickly jotted down notes in his notebook. Upon hearing this, he looked up and nodded approvingly. He probably hadn't expected a deputy secretary of a township to speak so eloquently in front of the camera, both addressing the interview's topic and subtly undermining the township's reputation.

After the interview was over, reporter Lin wound up the microphone cord and put it in his bag, while Lao Zhou closed the tripod and carried it back to the car.

Wang Tao quickly ran over to help carry the cables, asking Lin, his voice brimming with barely suppressed excitement, "Reporter Lin, when can we broadcast this news?"

Reporter Lin took the cable from him and put it in the trunk, smiling as she replied, "When we get back, we still need to edit, dub, and submit it for review. The normal process will take about a week."

"However, your case is very typical. Our station leaders said that it will not only be broadcast on the county TV station, but also pushed to the city TV station and the provincial TV station."

"Now that we're in the era of converged media, even if TV stations are slow to schedule, official accounts on short video platforms will post it first. Follow the 'Cangyang Media Convergence' WeChat official account and Douyin account, and you should be able to see it in the next few days."

When everyone heard the words "city TV station" and "provincial TV station," their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Wang Tao stared wide-eyed for several seconds, then turned around, grabbed Liu Wei's arm, and shook it violently. "Provincial TV! Liu Wei, did you hear that? Provincial TV! My mom can see me on her phone!"

Liu Wei's glasses were tilted by his shaking, but he didn't break free, and his mouth stretched to his ears.

Li Fang had already started making phone calls, holding the phone to her ear and speaking loudly enough for the whole yard to hear, "Mom! You'll be watching TV next week, yes, the county TV station, and the city and provincial stations too, make sure all our relatives watch it! Your daughter's on the news!"
