Episode 386. Hospital Director Election (5)

“You’re crazy. If you’re crazy, you’re crazy as hell.”

Documents handed over by the head of the rehabilitation medicine department.

The absent-minded person who had thrown it away twitched his cheek.

Overseas hospital acquisition.

This is ridiculous.

This is unprecedented.

Those who were watching his reaction also raised their voices belatedly.

“This is ridiculous.”

“That’s right. Taking over a hospital overseas. I guess they’re determined to destroy the hospital.”

“Should I submit a complaint to the foundation? To take over a hospital that is running at a loss! This is reckless management! Reckless management!”

“We have to stop it! This is an agenda that can’t be passed at the operating meeting anyway!”

Continued condemnation.

Actually, it was called a nursing home, but it was a fairly large hospital.

There are 488 hospital beds.

Every year, the deficit is in the tens of billions.

Success stories for the future.

So, it was an acquisition that was considered a great example of overseas hospital expansion, but there were people who did not know about it.

Professor Oh In-ji, who had just interviewed Jin-hyeok, also raised his voice.

“Normalization after acquisition. It’s difficult. I don’t know how much effort it will take. It’s nonsense.”

“Yes. That’s ridiculous.”

“Oh, and you’re even helping me get a medical license in the US! Doesn’t that cost money too?”

Jae-il Bae nodded slightly and looked around while drinking tea.

Those who condemn in a strong tone.

And the head of the rehabilitation medicine department handed me the documents.

I didn’t like it at all.

perhaps.

Yeah, maybe.

You might be secretly welcoming it.

If it’s a geriatric hospital, the internal medicine department will also be a mainstay.

Circulatory, respiratory, and endocrine systems.

The increasing number of TOs and those seeking professorships are visible at a glance.

so.

‘Why is it in a place where there are a lot of Koreans? These things… … .’

Even doubts are beginning to arise.

Anonymous elections.

It’s an election where you don’t know who’s voting for whom.

Jae-soo-il, who had been trying hard to suppress his doubts, put down his teacup.

“Countermeasures. Let’s discuss countermeasures first.”

* * *

“A countermeasure? None. Well, it’s actually a good thing.”

Jinhyuk stated it clearly.

Takeover of the infertility clinic that was proposed to the head of the obstetrics and gynecology department.

And the overseas expansion of Korean-style postpartum care centers.

The new unit’s business was kept entirely secret, but the head of the rehabilitation department was tight-lipped.

I wanted to put this on the scale.

He threw it at the absentee, demanding more conditions.

Woo Yong-man said with a smile.

“A counteroffer to acquire a larger hospital.”

“That’s ridiculous. If it were revealed that it was an infertility clinic, they would be able to make a counteroffer, but this is because Gucci is big.”

“Yes, that’s ridiculous.”

“But it’s difficult to just blindly oppose it.”

“Because the rehabilitation medicine department will be separated.”

Woo Yong-man, who took a moment to catch his breath, continued speaking.

“That’s not all. There must be some people in the internal medicine department who secretly welcome it… … . This is, for example… … . Yes, it’s a stroke of genius.”

“He’s a general.”

“Checkmate.”

“Whatever it is… … .”

“Yeah. Whatever it was. It’s over. It’s over.”

Only Jinhyeok and Wooyong smiled at the same time.

As expected.

As several days passed, the absence did not move.

NCND strategy.

This is to pretend not to know without confirming or denying anything.

* * *

It’s already the day before the election.

Woo Yong-man broke the plastic surgery clinic.

Four interviews.

And tuning.

The negotiation process was tedious.

There’s only one thing he wants.

Takeover of the Gender Clinic.

That was also a hospital in Thailand.

Gender surgery.

So, it is not easy to coordinate providing total care, from face-to-face treatment to gender reassignment surgery.

They say that starting at Anam Hospital first will guarantee profitability.

Limited resources were a problem.

He had to persuade and persuade the plastic surgeon for a long time to listen to his own demands first, as it could have been an empty promise.

Only Woo Yong-man, who had completed all the missions, tied his tie again.

The saying goes, “A true person is like a thousand angels.”

Lee Jin-hyuk said that was the word he hated the most, but now he has done everything he could.

The only thing left is the real election.

All that remains is voting.

* * *

Again.

Again.

The sound of the heel of a shoe hitting the floor.

At first glance, it sounded like the sound of a guardian wearing high heels going back and forth to the hospital room.

But the target is Han Dong-soo.

He entered the conference room, leaning on a cane, no matter what.

At that sight, right away.

“Hey, Professor Han. It’s time to put down the cane. Why were you walking around just fine without it last time?”

“You were limping even back then?”

“No, that’s what I mean.”

“What do I mean?”

“I’m saying this because I feel like I’ll be swinging my weight around if I have to. And you weren’t originally supposed to attend. If you don’t participate in the election, you’re abstaining. Abstain.”

“Isn’t that something that was sorted out last time?”

“There was a lot of controversy.”

“But it changed.”

Discussion on whether or not to allow the participation of the general manager, such as at the monthly management meeting.

So, these were the people who fought countless times over election rules.

The surgical department considered itself entitled to vote for the sergeant major because it was unknown when the surgery would take place.

Because the internal medicine department claimed that it was against the regulations.

The head of the cardiovascular department brings up a matter that has already been resolved.

Han Dong-soo took out a [+16 round] hexagonal bat.

“How is your son?”

“what?”

“You’re going to school in LA now, right? And so is your wife. Being a goose dad. It’s not easy.”

“Why now… … .”

“Oh, well. That’s just it. If you take over the hospital, someone will have to leave. For some reason, I think Manager Jang is the most likely candidate.”

“What? Me?”

“No, I guess he wants to go to America since he’s a goose dad. Well, otherwise, I guess not.”

After saying something completely unexpected, Han Dong-soo twitched his ear.

Let’s get other people’s attention right away.

The head of the cardiovascular department blushed.

“I don’t have a USMLE (US medical license). I have nothing. I don’t care about America.”

“You don’t necessarily need to see a doctor.”

“… … !”

“Someone has to run it. Have you seen the hospital director treating patients?”

“what?”

“You don’t necessarily need a license.”

“… … !”

In an instant, the head of the cardiovascular department’s eyes widened.

Han Dong-soo, who was picking at his left ear again, flicked his earwax with his finger.

“We need to choose a new hospital director. We need to choose a new operations manager. We need to choose a new vice president. Wow. There will be a lot of hats.”

“that…….”

“Why? It’s not like only the rehabilitation department is benefiting. They’re suturing it after the election. Isn’t that an obvious procedure?”

A statement close to the truth.

The head of the circulatory department turned his head when he heard that if Oh Ji-ho were to be re-elected, he would adopt a policy of compromise.

Undeterred, Han Dong-soo continued swinging his [+16] hexagonal bat.

Of course, the target is other managers.

Stimulate your inner, secret desires.

It stimulates me again.

And then.

“This is when anonymous voting is great. Just, oh! You don’t even know who voted for whom. Just, slap! You just stamp your seal!”

“Ah. There’s no way a surgical department would go to a geriatric hospital. Someone would be nice. That would be nice!”

He grabbed his staff after finishing his wide-area provocation.

* * *

The voting ended in an instant.

Now all that remains is to announce the results.

Oh In-ji approached Jae-soo-il, who had an anxious expression on her face, thinking that he might not be able to help her.

“Vice President. Thank you for your hard work.”

“Ah, Professor Oh, you’ve worked hard too.”

“no.”

“Yeah. Did you calculate the table?”

“I think we will win by a narrow margin of two votes.”

“Hmm.”

“I met with Manager Seo and had a firm discussion. I also made another promise with the head of the plastic surgery department.”

“Are you sure?”

“I am sure.”

The absent day quietly nodded its head.

Although they were greatly shaken by their opponents’ last-minute pursuit, they also believed that they had thoroughly cracked down on votes.

obstetrics and gynecology.

Department of Radiology.

Plastic surgery.

There is a reason why all of them withdrew their support.

There is no reason to support Oh Ji-ho again.

Jae-il, who had been catching his breath for a moment, gathered his composure.

After the election, the person who received the most votes became the hospital director.

Ji-ho Oh, who is next in line, will become vice president.

The foundation will nominate the person with the most votes as the hospital director.

As soon as they received approval, they planned to start the reform work right away.

Everything is according to the system.

Just like the old days.

The plan is to transform it into a great hospital where tradition lives and breathes.

But we went back into the conference room.

When Professor Mo, who was the head of the election committee, announced the results, Bu Jae-il’s eyes trembled slightly.

I definitely thought I would win.

We deserved to win.

I lost just like that.

And by the largest margin of votes.

* * *

“Congratulations, Dr. Hospital.”

“Haha, it’s thanks to Professor Seo’s help.”

“I ask for your continued support in the future.”

“Oh my. I have something to say… … .”

“Director, I sincerely congratulate you!”

People standing in line in front of Oh Ji-ho.

The cheekbones of the absent days trembled.

I thought it would be a success.

Lost by the largest margin of votes.

And it’s not even two votes.

There was a difference of five votes.

It means that all those who decided to betray him are now supporting Oh Ji-ho again.

It was clear that a departure sign had also appeared.

So that’s what a loser should do.

Although he had to declare defeat, Jae-il Bae stood up from his seat and staggered, unable to keep his balance.

The one who approached that scene was Han Dong-soo.

He asked.

“Can I borrow your cane?”

I’m not saying this to joke around, I’m just saying this because I think it’s really necessary.

* * *

[Wow, awesome. What is this?]

[Did you hear that too?]

[Wow. Another reappointment.]

[This is awesome. Seriously.]

[The managers who turned away. Why did they all turn away again?]

[I don’t know. Was it the power of Manager Woo Yong-man? Did he persuade them through long interviews?]

[Anyway, long live the surgical field. Long live!]

[Hey. Next time you get a call from the internal medicine department, make sure to answer the phone.]

[ㅋㅋㅋ. I’m just changing it.]

[Yeah lol.]

A conversation that goes on for a long time.

Those in the surgical department were constantly laughing.

On the other hand, the internal medicine department used the atherosclerosis.

The third consecutive day of defeat in an election.

Someone mustered up the courage to speak up.

[At this point, shouldn’t we change the player?]

[Hey. Hahaha.]

[why.]

[It’s a secret that you said that to me.]

[Are you scared? As long as you don’t leak anything, that’s fine.]

[Oh, I don’t know. Well, I’m just pretending to win. Anyway, you know what?]

[what?]

[They even prepared the vice-president’s personnel plan.]

[I drank a lot of water lol.]

[ㅋㅋㅋㅋ He must be tearing it apart right now.]

[Let’s do some work. Let’s do some work. What’s the point of caring about the elders? But we still have to change the players. Nothing will work as a vice-president.]

Growing distrust.

It was something that would have calmed down by tomorrow, but today it was noisy.

Then, Kim Moo-sung sent a messenger to his classmate.

[ㅇㄱㄷ ㅇㅈㅎ ㅅㅅㄴㅇ ㄱㅎㅎㄱㄷ, ㅇㄱ ㅁ ㅎㅅㄷ ㅇㄱ I’m really so frustrated.]

A messenger sent to be interpreted.

My colleague, who had experienced Kim Moo-sung’s bullying more than once or twice, answered right away.

[That’s it? What’s next? Hey. Just shut up and do your job!]

[Ahhh ddh jggn yjh ssnw h grlnk!]

[What the hell. You crazy bastard. Hey. Did you hear that?]

[what.]

[The vice president didn’t even declare his acceptance of the award. The hospital director asked to shake his hand, but he just ignored him and walked away.]

A colleague who has to say that Lee Jin-hyeok planned everything, but only says nonsense.

Kim Moo-sung closed the messenger window with a frustrated expression.

* * *

Jinhyuk, who heard the news late, immediately made an international call.

The opponent is Jang Hyuk-jun, who will be in Germany.

I was thinking of informing him of the situation, as he was known as a genius doctor in Germany.

Click.

“I won.”

[Wow! Is that true? Is that true? Oh, I don’t think I would lie in this situation. So, am I going to become a professor?]

“Well, it depends on how you do it.”

[The hospital director knows, right? Do you know that I’ve come back to Germany and am being treated like a dog?]

“You wouldn’t know?”

[Why don’t you know?]

I was worried that I would lose at some point.

Jang Hyuk-jun has transformed.

Jinhyuk said after a while.

“Well… …. Because the kids told me to get out?”

[Wow. Seriously. Comrade Ramen. This is really going to happen!]

“But the operations manager knows. Tell him I’m grateful.”

[Ugh. He’s someone I don’t want to be close with!]

“Let’s get to know each other on this occasion.”

[Ahhh! What interview do you have to do?]

Jang Hyuk-jun shouted in horror.

Woo Yong-man, operations manager.

She only shows her relaxed side in front of Lee Jin-hyuk.

He was always cold, indifferent, and a cold-blooded person who only cared about money. No, he was like the last bastion protecting Asin Hospital.

I’m saying that the operations manager would like that.

It was natural to be terrified.

* * *

Meanwhile, Oh Ji-ho is on the top floor of the west wing.

So I was looking down at the whole scene from the hospital director’s office.

On the left are the Cancer Center and Clinical Practice Center.

And it was a dormitory ward.

Again, Oh Ji-ho turns his head to the right.

Then I saw a road along the embankment in the distance.

The embankment road looks a bit scary rather than charming because the streetlights are dim.

Cherry blossoms will be in full bloom when spring comes, but there is no sign of that yet.

He looked at the view for a while and then smiled.

Woo Yong-man reports that it would have been difficult if Lee Jin-hyeok had not helped.

He must have moved to avoid his own eyes.

I’m going to find this son of a bitch right now and break his legs with a club…

No, no.

I thought that since it had come to this, I could just tap him on the shoulder.

You’ve worked hard.

Thank you.

Thanks to that, I was able to continue in the surgical field for a few more years.

But Oh Ji-ho continued to look at the scenery without showing his feelings.

Seriously.

Yeah, it was a really beautiful night.
