Chapter 558: Earning extra money legally, every family has its own problems
To do this, you first need to overcome some of your own psychological barriers.
Everyone has independent thinking, not a machine.
As long as there is independent thinking, there will inevitably be selfishness, arrogance, self-priority, etc. Even if you use reason to suppress these thoughts and fully cooperate with the surgeon, it will still appear stiff and unnatural.
And there will be a lot of oversights.
For example, if you try to please someone deliberately, first of all, you will feel wronged. Secondly, you will appear artificial in many ways and cannot be natural.
When it comes to some details or unexpected situations, it is easy for people to lean towards their own side.
This black director is like the legendary angel, without any selfish thoughts at all.
After the operation started, they provided Zhou Can with their wholehearted service and full cooperation.
To put it a little more exaggeratedly, even if she didn't know Zhou Cansu, she would sacrifice her life without hesitation if she was asked to do so during the operation.
It was precisely because of her extremely high ideological awareness that Zhou Can felt extremely relaxed throughout the operation.
It's really like there's no need to worry about anything.
What is it like to be able to do whatever he wants during the operation and have a dedicated senior anesthesiologist as a partner? It's like fighting the enemy on the battlefield, with someone specifically responsible for helping Zhou Can clear the way, defend, and block bullets for him.
If Zhou Can were to perform some major surgeries in the future and be able to work with such an anesthesiologist, his surgical abilities would definitely increase by at least 20 to 30 percent.
Unfortunately, Director Hei is an anesthesiologist at the First Hospital, and the two are not in the same unit.
"Doctor Zhou, you've worked so hard tonight. Would you like to come to my office and have a cup of tea and rest for a while?" Victoria Song invited him.
"It's already late today, please come and bother me another day!"
Zhou Can declined her invitation.
The operation was successful and the patient's disease was well resolved, which made everyone very happy.
The atmosphere is also quite good.
"My boss is a well-known husband who loves his wife. He is in a hurry to go home to be with his girlfriend!" Jiang Wei praised with a smile.
"Oh! Really! Nowadays, it's hard to find a man who is successful in his career and loyal to his wife! Doctor Zhou not only performs beautiful surgeries, but he is also so loyal to his wife. It's really admirable. If that's the case, then I really can't be the bad guy and keep you for tea."
Song Qian looked at Zhou Can with a slightly reverent look.
Zhou Can felt very happy to be looked at like this by a beautiful elite lady of high status.
A gentleman carries the world with virtue.
A man’s moral character must reach a certain level before he can be respected.
"This is a small token of my appreciation for inviting you three to come and see the patients. Don't think it's too little. Just treat it as inviting you to a cup of tea. I really appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to come and help today. Thank you."
Victoria Song gave three red envelopes to three people respectively.
Zhou Can’s red envelope is the thickest, and Jiang Wei’s is also quite thick, estimated to be around one thousand.
Zhong Ming's red envelope was the thinnest, and it was hard to guess how much was in it.
The First Hospital is a Grade 3 hospital after all. If you hire someone to make a house call and the surgery he performs is a secondary surgery that requires a lot of cleaning, it will be difficult to hire him again next time if you don't pay him more generously.
Since Jiang Wei was the one who introduced the matter, it's normal to give an extra two or four hundred yuan.
The visit fee of an instrument nurse is usually around 400 yuan, and if it is a more advanced one, it is about 600 yuan. If it is higher, it will be a loss.
Because the surgery is performed by our hospital's instrument nurse, the stand fee is usually only around thirty yuan.
For a more serious surgery, you might be given fifty dollars.
It is a secret how much the surgeon gets paid, but it is at least four to five times what the nurse gets paid.
Therefore, the First Hospital gave Jiang Wei a red envelope of over a thousand yuan, which was very generous. At least 400 yuan of it was an extra thank you for the matchmaking fee.
Zhong Ming was just here to learn, and although he served as a medical assistant to Zhou Can during the operation, the First Hospital did not care about his contribution. Because the position of medical assistant was originally prepared for Zhou Can.
Now it's basically equivalent to paying double the wages.
The red envelope given to Zhong Ming was probably only two or three hundred yuan.
After all, if I only give a hundred yuan, it's a bit embarrassing. Maybe the other person's travel expenses are several dozen yuan.
When Zhou Can accepted the red envelope, he simply declined it with a few polite words.
Holding it in my hand, I felt that the red envelope from the other party was quite thick, at least more than two thousand.
"Sissi, we're leaving. Goodbye!"
Jiang Wei waved at her.
"Walk slowly!"
Victoria Song waved back from beside the car.
Looking at the car Zhou Can drove, Victoria Song's expression did not change much. Because with the surgical skills Zhou Can showed tonight, even if his position was very low, he could still get a lot of private work.
I earn 2,000 yuan for each operation, and my gray income is at least tens of thousands a month.
In fact, when it comes to taking private jobs, there is a very magical phenomenon.
Doctors with high medical skills, especially those who are good at surgery, are overwhelmed with private work and cannot keep up with the orders. For those with average ability, even chief physicians, it is considered very good if they can receive two or three private jobs a month.
Various academic lectures invited by medical device manufacturers or pharmaceutical companies are not included in this scope.
Because when someone invites you to give a lecture, it is just a transfer of benefits. This kind of transfer of benefits is legal and is most prevalent abroad. Officials of various positions often accept empty positions given by some companies, or invite them to give lectures.
An ordinary professor might earn just a few hundred dollars for a lecture, but it is not uncommon for a retired senior official to earn more than fifty thousand dollars for a lecture.
Bribery abroad is a felony, but paying through invitations to lectures and other means is completely legal.
The domestic situation has also followed suit and borrowed many of the methods for making gray income.
"Let me take you two home! Doctor Zhong, where do you live?"
"It's in the Taohuayuan neighborhood on Jiangbei Avenue. If it's not on your way, I can just take a taxi back."
Zhong Ming came over to help, not for the reward, but to get closer to Zhou Can.
It can also be regarded as a kind of repayment to Zhou Can.
"It's hard to get a taxi at night, I'll just give it a ride. Jiang Wei, how about you?"
"I live in District B of Century New City, which is quite far from here."
She replied.
"Then let me take Dr. Zhong home first, and then I'll take you home."
The two people's residences are in opposite directions, so I can only send the one who is closer first.
"I'm fine."
"Thanks."
Both agreed.
Zhou Can first sent Dr. Zhong to the entrance of Taohuayuan Community, and then to Jiang Wei.
Taohuayuan Community is a very old community, about 40 to 50 minutes' drive from Tuya Hospital . Zhong Ming is at least an associate chief physician, and he is already 38 years old. He bought a house in such a remote old community. This is the real income level of an ordinary doctor.
Of course, if he had money, he would not have been easily poached by the Third Hospital last time.
Basically, the senior medical staff who were poached were capable but short of money.
Clinical doctors really start to make money after they are promoted to associate chief physician. This is an important watershed.
Resident doctors are struggling at the bottom, barely making ends meet. Attending doctors will see a big increase in income, but it is still only a medium income.
You can only really start to earn a considerable annual income after being awarded the title of associate senior professional.
At this time, one has some power and a certain academic status. Teaching in a medical school is the most common. The hospital's income will also be much higher than when it was the attending physician.
When all aspects are added together, the income is quite considerable.
Many doctors start moving into bigger houses and cars two or three years after being promoted to associate chief physician.
If it is a male doctor, cheating and changing wives basically starts from this time.
Men become bad when they have money. This is the most true portrayal of men.
After Zhong Ming got off the car, only Zhou Can and Jiang Wei were left in the car, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing for a while.
"Did you buy your house in Century New City?"
Zhou Can took the initiative to break the dullness.
Because a single man and a single woman are in a closed space, silence for a long time can easily lead to awkwardness or create a bad atmosphere.
This is not what Zhou Can wants.
“I bought it with a loan, and the area is still very small.”
She said with a little bitterness.
"It's great to be able to buy a house at such a young age! Most young people buy houses with loans, and many even empty six wallets to make a down payment! You have surpassed more than 90% of your peers."
Zhou Can feels that neither a house nor a car represents anything.
When you are young, the .
With her ability, buying a villa in the future will not be a problem.
"Thank you for your comfort. Sometimes I feel like a real failure!" Her voice was still bitter.
"Not only have you not failed, but you have been very successful. Really, I am not saying this to comfort you, but I am stating the truth. Being able to be as young as you, with such a high level of professionalism and academic qualifications, and having outstanding abilities, is already very, very good. At least I am far inferior to you."
Zhou Can didn’t understand why she thought so?
Logically speaking, she has a high level of education, and her knowledge and understanding should not be bad.
You should know the planning and pursuit of life.
If you are not yet 30, there is no need to compare your wealth with others. As long as you have the ability and education, why worry about not making money?
"You're not trying to comfort me! You're the best young doctor I've ever seen. Your surgical and diagnostic abilities are no less than those of professors and experts in their 50s and 60s. Your pharmacology skills are a little inferior, but I feel that you're improving very quickly. In today's surgery, the medical advice you gave the patient, and the use of some antibiotics, really impressed me."
The way she spoke at this moment was completely different from how she usually spoke at work.
It seems more real at this moment.
It was also the first time that it was pointed out that Zhou Can's level of pharmacology was weak.
This woman is really amazing. After only one or two days of contact with Zhou Can, she has observed Zhou Can's strengths and weaknesses from his work. She just hasn't said it out loud.
In addition, Zhou Can's pharmacological diagnosis had just been promoted to level six not long ago, and this matter was extremely secretive.
But she keenly observed the great progress.
The fact that she could discover these things shows that her level must be at least similar.
But her pharmacology is indeed very powerful.
It is entirely possible to reach level six.
This also illustrates a problem. Three thousand roads all lead to Rome.
She is so young, but her ability in pharmacological differentiation has reached level 6, which is certainly not entirely accumulated through clinical experience.
This shows that by reading and studying, one can quickly improve various medical skills.
Zhou Can has no idea what the teaching model is like abroad.
She was able to reach level 6 in pharmacological diagnosis before she was 30. In addition to her hard work in domestic medical schools, this was definitely related to the knowledge and experience she acquired while studying abroad.
"Jiang Wei, are you satisfied with your current salary? Do you think it's too low?"
Zhou Can asked her.
Because he was sitting in the front driving, he couldn't see her expression at all.
It is very impolite to observe female colleagues in the back seat through the rearview mirror.
It is more likely to make people nervous.
"I'm quite satisfied! I feel very fulfilled when I perform surgery with you. I can feel the improvement of knowledge, experience and skills every day. The income is quite good. For nursing talents, even if I am at Zhongyuan University, the monthly salary is only about 20,000 yuan."
Unlike doctors, nurses’ salaries are difficult to increase once their income reaches a certain ceiling.
A nurse who can earn 25,000 yuan a month is already at the pyramid level in any hospital in the country.
Because she has academic qualifications, she can engage in teaching and scientific research, which can also earn her some extra income.
Generally speaking, it cannot be compared with the income of doctors.
Especially for a monster like Zhou Can, academic qualifications are like waste paper in front of him. The Third Hospital directly offered an annual salary of 5 million to poach him, and it was full of sincerity.
One year's income is equivalent to a senior nurse's income for more than ten years.
“Do you have a high pursuit of material life?”
Zhou Can asked her.
"No, I won't! For clothes, working-class brands are fine. Anything worse will only affect your image and health. As for food, I'm never picky. As long as it's clean and hygienic, I put my health first. I never yearn for big fish and meat, or delicacies from land and sea. The house I live in doesn't need to be too big, as long as it's cozy. But you know, nine out of ten women are vain, and the other one is just vain to a different degree."
"It's impossible to say that I don't feel disappointed when I see others driving nice cars, carrying brand-name bags, and wearing watches worth hundreds of thousands of dollars."
She was honest and spoke frankly when she said these things.
"Haha, you are quite straightforward! If you are willing to work with me, I can't make too big a promise, but in five years, it should be no problem for you to earn a million dollars a year."
This was the first time that Zhou Can realized that he needed to earn better income for his doctors and nurses.
Because they have families and various expenses.
Everybody wants to live a good life.
If their income does not reach the level they need, no matter how high their enthusiasm is, it will be extinguished sooner or later.
If you want to increase the income of team members, you must find ways to cheat patients' money. Zhou Can is not that kind of wicked person.
The only way is to advance to difficult diseases, specialize in major surgeries, and specifically challenge various difficult diseases.
