Chapter 2820: with translation of chapter title
Zheng Ren and Su Yun walked home under starlight; the starlight in Di Du is not as good as that in the desert, and the brilliant Milky Way of that desert trip is a great enjoyment in life.
Regarding Zhou Litao's matter, Zheng Ren had nothing to say.
"Boss, I have a bad feeling." Su Yun's voice was low, as if wearing three layers of masks.
"Huh?" Zheng Ren didn't understand why Su Yun, who was lively and jumping in front of Zhou Litao, would suddenly feel down now.
Moreover, a bad feeling? Will Manager Zhou get into trouble because he can't let go? Zheng Ren found it a bit strange.
"If this continues, Manager Zhou will eventually have to resign." Su Yun said in a low voice.
Resignation, this topic is heavy. For an individual, almost all Hospitals are not as good as 912. Here, whether social status or income, it's quite good, better than many Hospitals nationwide.
It's also hard to find a better place elsewhere, but doing the Inpatient Chief's job for a long time really makes one prone to sudden death. Even someone as tough as iron might not withstand it; the choice between life and death is clear—what Zhou Litao will do is obvious.
"There's nothing we can do." Zheng Ren also sighed.
"I'm talking about the whole, not the individual." Su Yun said, "You say everyone will go to private hospitals later; when a public health event occurs, who will rush to the front?"
……
Su Yun's words were like a cold wind in a deep autumn night, blowing through Zheng Ren's heart.
Since medicine entered the market, due to its huge scale, the old order has been slowly collapsing.
Public health events……in the past, doctors from public hospitals were always the first to go into action, with nationwide support; each time there was danger but no mishap.
But with increasingly frequent medical violence incidents and stronger invisible forces pushing doctors toward private hospitals, the dominoes have already been tipped.
The future direction, Zheng Ren couldn't say clearly, but the public health event Su Yun mentioned—for example, during earthquake relief.
Equating medical care with service, children entering the medical field in the future will surely see it as a transaction, just like Fugui'er who just came to the country.
In the beginning, Professor Rudolf Wagner had to leave work on time every day; the rest was his private time, which was sacred and not to be infringed.
That's correct, Fugui'er is also correct, nobody is wrong.
For the Nobel Prize, Professor Rudolf Wagner could work himself to death, becoming an important part of the roaring machine that is the Medical Team. But once he got the Nobel Prize, he simply didn't want to come back.
Professor Rudolf Wagner always said he would come to Di Du, but he never actually came; the meaning behind that is worth pondering.
Zheng Ren remained silent, walking among the lights of Di Du, he looked up at the sky and saw hardly any stars. The world was full of mortal dust and fireworks, full of prosperous flourishing.
"What should we do next time? What should we do from now on?" Su Yun asked.
"Don't think too much." Zheng Ren said after pondering for a long time.
"Huh?"
"Thinking too much won't make you grow." Zheng Ren said.
……
"We are just individuals; nobody can reverse the big trend. Let's take it step by step; nobody finds it easy." After Zheng Ren said these two mismatched sentences, he immediately fell into endless silence.
Su Yun also knew that such a matter fundamentally has no conclusion.
Decades of accumulation and change have gradually formed a qualitative shift. To shake the great and destroy the firm, start small and proceed gradually. Now it's already riddled with holes; sincerely, it's not something one person's strength can salvage.
He blew a breath, his black hair in front of his forehead fluttering.
Passing the Community Hospital, Su Yun smiled and said, "Boss, will this place also become part of a private hospital in the future?"
"Don't think about this, think more about Xiao Shitou." Zheng Ren said, "Do what we can; society as a whole is unconscious, and if each person can handle their own tasks well, that's already quite good."
"Tch, after saying it ten thousand times, you're just an ostrich. Whenever something happens, you just want to brush it off." Su Yun said contemptuously.
"You think too much; many things don't need contemplation, just need to put your head down and forge ahead. Because the current environment, and even a few years, months, or days later, will change; the big environment is different, so what you say is useless."
The two still have disagreements about this matter, but they also clearly understand the root of the disagreement.
Walking home in quiet silence, Yi Ren and Chang Yue were still awake, the TV playing a drama. Zheng Ren felt that the mortal world's fireworks were not bad either, exuding a sense of joy, peace, and health.
Su Yun thinks too much; this is not good, thinking too much won't make you grow.
"Yi Ren, we're back." Zheng Ren said with a smile upon entering the house.
Xie Yiren sat on the sofa, hugging a plush toy bear, turning her head, her eyes narrowed into a crescent moon.
Heizi poked his head out from between the coffee table and the sofa, a smell of alcohol wafting from afar.
Sigh, there are two drunks at home, they've led Heizi astray, Zheng Ren thought to himself. Since becoming allergic to tonic water, Zheng Ren has reached the point where talking about alcohol makes his face change.
"Zheng Ren, have you set the dates for going to Germany? I told the Head Nurse, she said it counts as a business trip, not leave. Just let me know once the dates are set; she needs to schedule a day ahead." Xie Yiren said with a smile.
Zheng Ren glanced at Su Yun.
"Ke Li is contacting the flight schedule; after a night's sleep, we'll have news tomorrow." Su Yun's emotions hadn't settled; he remained immersed in his own "constructed" future, unable to pull himself out.
Zheng Ren patted his shoulder to offer comfort. But any comfort had no practical effect; in the great wave, even a Big Pig Trotter is just an insignificant little ripple, utterly unable to go against the current.
Better to focus attention on Xiao Shitou; Zheng Ren has thought about similar matters many times and also pondered them alone.
Zheng Ren is like a stone: he doesn't think about what he doesn't understand, doesn't try to change what he can't change, and only does what he is capable of. Like his current days, they seem alright as well.
Day by day, let's just get by for now.
Zheng Ren sat beside Yi Ren, slightly turning toward her. Xie Yiren put the plush bear aside and hugged Zheng Ren's shoulder as if embracing a large doll.
Strands of hair lightly brushed, Zheng Ren felt like a child.
However, this feeling is not bad either. In the Operating Room and the consultation room, he is the king. He looks mighty and imposing, but only Zheng Ren knows how much pressure he bears.
Every decision is crucial; every decision must not be wrong.
He rested his head on Xie Yiren's shoulder, slowly closed his eyes. A few seconds later he felt uncomfortable, his head twitched slightly, this movement exactly like Heizi's.
Su Yun hung up his clothes, and when he came back he stared wide-eyed.
"Holy cow! Can't you stop throwing dog food in public!"
