Great Power

Rao is that Zheng Jianguo had known the truth from Yang Na before, but now when he confirmed the fact from Kemit, the whole person was also involuntarily stunned at the door, staring at the school secretary and opened his mouth. : "This is graduation——"

"Yes, Zheng, if you pass the Step2 exam, even if you pass the assessment of the Education Committee, of course this is something that only happens because you have an excellent foundation, and other medical students need to earn enough credits to participate in USMLE. Until now, no one has passed the Step2 exam without taking enough credits."

Looking across Zheng Jianguo’s stunned Guazi face, Amy Ashby said in her slightly low smokey voice. The former looked at her slightly darkened skin and he recovered, and immediately piled up a smile and let go Doorway: "Sorry, I was so surprised. It was a surprise to me. Please come in, Mr. Kermit, Ms. Belinda, Mr. Val, Ms. Amy, welcome-but I just finished the exam today. "

"We have confirmed with the test center, Zheng, your grade is A, only 5 people are higher than you."

Belinda looked at Zheng Jianguo when he got to the coffee machine and picked up the disposable cups to pick up coffee for several people. Kemet couldn't help but glanced at her, then smiled: "Zheng, what are your plans after graduation? Do you apply for residency as other medical students for further studies, or do you plan to enjoy your life?"

"Then your previous research will be wasted, Zheng, I am also a director of the Society of Gastroenterology, but we have not met before. Well, the hospital is too busy. I want to invite you to join the Digestive Center of Massachusetts General Hospital. Of course it starts from the resident doctor, you need to go through the shortest training for five years—"

Before Zheng Jianguo spoke, Amy said that as the director of the Digestive Center of Massachusetts General Hospital, the largest under Harvard Medical School, she can say that she has been paying attention to this young student who has long heard of his name.

The reason why the Kafran executive director recruited Zheng Jianguo as a special director is also because she strongly recommends them, but these are not known to outsiders, but she is very dissatisfied with the behavior of opening the back door of the hospital: "This is ACGME regulation. If you want to continue to be trained as a specialist in the future, you only need to spend another two years—"

"In 7 years, I will only be 25 years old."

Zheng Jianguo put the coffee in front of a few people and said, turning his head to look at Val Fairbanks, who is more like an elite in suit and leather than Komit, and said: "Mr. Val, if I want to apply to Massachusetts General Hospital The resident doctor in the emergency department, I wonder if I can apply?"

"Well, Zheng, are you going to give up research on digestion?"

The plastic cup in his hand almost crumbled, Kermit quickly put it back on the table with a shocked face, and subconsciously glanced at Amy and said, "Well, Zheng, your previous research was favored by many people—"

"This is not to say that I have to give up research on Helicobacter. It is just that in the current American medical system, my resident must be studying for the purpose of studying after entering the hospital, so that means I will not have too much Even when I get to the digestion center, I don’t have much free time, let alone a patient who can bear my name."

Carefully speaking out the language of the organization, Zheng Jianguo was a little unhappy with this Amy's arrogant attitude. He didn't know if this was intentional or by nature. Fortunately, he had made a decision beforehand not to go to the digestive department of the internal medicine department. Go: "Next, my research will focus on the molecular characteristics of Helicobacter pylori, its pathogenic mechanism, its DNA, and these aspects that have little to do with patients—"

"Well, this is also a direction—"

Val turned his head and looked at Amy, and then listened to Kemit next to him and said: "But Zheng, you said to go to the emergency department before—"

"It's been less than half a year since the emergency department was admitted. I feel that this subject will be a hot subject——"

When Zheng Jianguo subconsciously said some far-fetched reasons, Belinda, who hadn’t spoken since entering the house, quickly interrupted him: “Zheng, you just don’t want to lose your scepter. You are in the Helicobacter pylori domain. Wand, I took a look at the lessons you have taken in the past year and a half, most of which focused on the non-digestive system.

And you only took a class related to the digestive system, and your attention was still focused on recording and camera-Zheng, and clinical medicine is a discipline that emphasizes overall collaboration. Your attitude is to suffer when entering the emergency department. The proportion of collaboration there is more important than the digestive center."

"Ms. Belinda, it is because of these that I want to study in the emergency department—"

Looking at Belinda, it was obvious that he had analyzed himself, Zheng Jianguo continued to pick up these as an excuse: "I also found this problem, so I wanted to take this opportunity to learn and exercise. The emergency department deals with all departments. A place is also a place where you will come into contact with all kinds of people. After all, residents are also for the purpose of learning, and at least they have the opportunity to re-select the direction of specialty before the end of the training."

"Well, Val, how do you feel?"

Kemet scratched his forehead and did not serve coffee. Instead, he turned to look at the serious-faced dean next to him. He saw that he ignored his question but directly addressed Zheng Jianguo and said, "Zheng, this is your choice. It may waste many years of your time—"

"But I can learn a lot—"

Zheng Jianguo did not agree with the dean’s statement. The dean of Massachusetts General Hospital is an administrative post. Like the secretary of Harvard University, the director of the Digestive Center among the four people in front of him is also a Administrative staff, Yang Na said that this kind of position has nothing to do with professional ability, but it tests the organization and coordination ability, and the organization and coordination ability has nothing to do with specialist medicine: "It can not be said that it is a waste of time, after all. In terms of research, failure is also a gain."

"Well, yes, are you sure you want to go to the emergency department?"

Unexpectedly, it was not Kemet and Val who asked this question, but Amy, who always seemed to look at him as if it was not pleasing to his eyes. Zheng Jianguo looked at her and nodded and said: "Yes, I plan to go to the emergency department to adapt. Two years, if it doesn’t work, I’ll change to a specialist course later."

"That's good, now the emergency medical inpatient training programs are organized by hospitals."

Val showed a serious smile on his face. He did not expect to persuade Zheng Jianguo in such a simple way, and the rest is the treatment issue: "Zheng, the hospital will pay you 3.5 dollars an hour and weekends every week. There are paid vacation and health and occupational insurance every year.

In addition, the food subsidy is 500 US dollars per month, and the journal subsidy is 200 US dollars. Since you have not yet got a family, the childcare subsidy is included in other benefits, which is about 3,000 US dollars per month. It is only 50 hours of work per week, of which the proportion of work and scientific research. It is 3.5:1.5."

For an hour of 3.5 dollars, working more than 50 hours a week, the monthly salary is less than 1,000 dollars, but with a subsidy of almost 4,000, Zheng Jianguo received an annual salary of 60,000 dollars in his first year as a hospital doctor.

Because of the relationship between Yang Na and Kasana before, Zheng Jianguo is no stranger to the salaries of American doctors at this time. After decades, the whole world will know that American doctors have the highest salaries, often hundreds of thousands. There are even millions of them, and they are still US dollars.

But few people know that after graduating from a normal university, it will cost more than US$10,000 a year to study for another 4 years to become a doctor. However, at this time, doctors are only approved residents, and the hourly rate is lower than that of ordinary people. Hourly wages mean that they need to continue to invest in costs, and depending on the selected department, after 3 to 7 years of experience, they can become highly paid specialist doctors.

So unless there is full help from the family, every new specialist will be burdened with a student loan of 50,000 to 100,000 US dollars, and if the medical school is in a top college like Harvard, this number is still Will double--

Zheng Jianguo knows that he is not an ordinary resident, and this salary will not be the salary of an ordinary resident, otherwise he would not have to come to talk to him with Kermit. As for the subsidy that is higher than the salary, it is a bit weird. Of course, he has no idea about the salary now, and the work content arrangement of 3.5:1.5 is also more reasonable: "Are there restrictions on working hours and research time?"

"No, you can use it together for 3 hours a day or together—"

It was discovered that Zheng Jianguo did not talk about remuneration but talked about the arrangement of research time. Kemit and Val both smiled brightly. Although today's goal was a bit twisted, it was finally achieved. The person could not help but said: "The emergency department is relatively idle in the morning, and as far as I know people are the clearest in the morning, you can also do the research in the morning, and then go to the emergency department to work in the afternoon to night. Of course, you can make specific arrangements. , And we hope that you can keep your treatment confidential and don’t disclose it to others—"

"This is no problem, this is also the content of job responsibilities."

When Zheng Jianguo nodded in response, Val's posterior molars were exposed: "Then you are welcome to join the Massachusetts General Hospital. I will have someone come over and sign the contract tomorrow. By the way, the inpatient report is in June. , There is still some time before June, do you hope to arrive as soon as possible or wait until June and other residents—"

"As soon as possible, early contact can start early, and it can end early."

Zheng Jianguo did not have the idea of ​​waiting any longer. Since he is now in the state of graduation, the three-month period from now to June is a bit wasted. So he talked with Kemit and the latter He got up to say goodbye and took the three of them away.

Watching a few people leave the window, Zheng Jianguo put the four cups on the table and put them in the trash can. When he reached the phone, he began to dial. He hadn't finished talking with Yang Na before, so he called a few people after the call. As I said, Yang Na’s voice came clear: "They found someone at the test center to confirm your grades. You graduated in less than two years-I remember you don’t need credits, right? "

"You can take the test without taking credits—"

Zheng Jianguo confirmed again, and Yang Na said: "Each school makes its own study plan for students to obtain credits, and then meets the standards to take the USMLE exam according to the standards of the Medical Education Committee. After passing the promotion and graduation, I want to say that you have good luck. , You will not be angry, will you?"

"I have said it, I was lucky in the first place—"

Pulling the phone and falling on the sofa, Zheng Jianguo looked at the lamp on the ceiling and smiled: "This is the case with Helicobacter, the graphite layer, and so are others. They gave me the leader of the self-study series, Chai Zhigang, and Wei Jianran and Ye from Qi Provincial Medical College. Professor, these are the people I met only when I was lucky."

"Now Kemit and Belinda are added."

Hearing Zheng Jianguo talk about his former "noble person", Yang Na had already heard about this from Zheng Donghua during the Chinese New Year. Just thinking of her current identity, she couldn't help laughing: "This matter is also likely to be you. Because of his identity, which hospital the Harvard MD who discovered Helicobacter would go to be a resident.

In case of winning the Nobel Prize in a few years, the honor it brings to the hospital is huge. Rebecca’s current salary is only US$2.1 per hour, and it is less than US$1,000 in a month. She said that if it were not for the past The painstaking effort has long since stopped—did you choose the emergency department for me?"

"Well, it's for you. Have you ever listened to the singer? It's like Liu Caichun—"

Zheng Jianguo ran the train with a smile on his face, but didn’t want Yang Na’s voice to rise abruptly, “It’s because you’re still a doctor of medicine, so don’t talk about such self-deprecating status in the future. Then Liu Caichun is an actress and her husband is an actress. Wonful Han Yuanzhen fancy, you just use Mandarin Duck to describe the two of us are much cleaner than this. By the way, do you know what happened to the plane we booked?"

"This is Yang Na changing the subject--"

Unexpectedly, what he said casually caused such a big reaction from Yang Na. After Zheng Jianguo returned to his mind, he continued with her topic: "The plane we booked, what did the British Aerospace company say?"

"After I got home, I was a little annoyed about staying, so I thought of our plane and ran to take a look. They didn't expect that I would come over suddenly. Someone took me to visit and found that it was almost the same— —"

Yang Na’s voice was a bit whispering. Zheng Jianguo lay on the sofa and pricked his ears, and then listened to her to speak: "After I finished reading, the sales department director of British Aerospace Company came to explain. It was just before he came. I just inquired about it. It turns out that not only do you have such exaggerated requirements for speed and range in this world.

Before you, the prince of a certain country ordered this aircraft from British Airways. The requirement was also to have a range of 15,000 kilometers and a speed of more than 2,150 per hour. Unfortunately, the whereabouts of the prince who wanted to take this aircraft from Doha to Washington was unknown. So the plane that only paid the deposit lost its owner—"
