The awarding ceremony is over.
Next is the group photo session.
At this time, a small detail emerged again.
Originally, Vice Mayor Huang and Director Li of the Health Bureau were standing in the middle. Just when it was about to take a photo, Director Li suddenly waved to Ye Qiu who was standing on the outermost side and shouted, “Little Ye, come here.”
Ye Qiu walked over with a puzzled expression on his face.
”You are the youngest, so stand in the middle!” Director Li pulled Ye Qiu to the C position.
”Director Li, this… is not appropriate, right?” Ye Qiu looked embarrassed.
After all, except for the other outstanding award-winning doctors, there are also leaders on the stage. As a junior, it really doesn’t seem appropriate for him to stand in the middle.
”There is nothing inappropriate. It’s fine here.” Director Li said enthusiastically.
Vice Mayor Huang also smiled and said, “Little Ye, you are so handsome. Just stand in the middle. Let the citizens of Jiangzhou also know that our doctors not only have excellent medical skills, but also high appearance values.”
Helpless, Ye Qiu had to stand between the two leaders.
This made the other award-winning doctors extremely envious.
As for the audience, they were whispering again.
”What is the background of this Ye Qiu?”
“Not only does Vice Mayor Huang treat him differently, but even Director Li is very enthusiastic about him.”
“Could he be the son of some big shot?”
Coincidentally, an idea emerged in everyone’s mind that they must find a way to get to know Ye Qiu.
After the group photo was taken, Ye Qiu thought he could go off the stage.
Who knew that he was stopped by the host again.
“Next, please welcome the award-winning representative, Doctor Ye Qiu from Jiangzhou People’s Hospital, to give a speech. Let’s welcome him with applause.”
However, this time there was no applause from the audience, but an uproar.
“Why is it Ye Qiu who is giving the speech?”
“What virtue and ability does Ye Qiu have to be qualified to speak?”
“There are also several old experts who won the award. Even if it’s someone’s turn to speak, it should be them. Why is it Ye Qiu?”
The faces of the other award-winning doctors also looked a bit unpleasant.
Among this group of people, Ye Qiu is the youngest, has the least seniority, and the lightest weight. Now asking Ye Qiu to speak is clearly making them.
In fact, not only them, but even Ye Qiu himself was a bit stunned.
Because no one greeted him in advance and said that he needed to speak.
You know, for an important occasion like this with leaders present, generally speaking, arrangements will be made in advance. Who will speak, what to say, and how long to speak are all strictly limited.
But Ye Qiu had no idea in advance.
was getting louder and louder under The discussion sound.
At this time, Director Li stood up.
“Everyone, be quiet and listen to me for a few words.”
After the scene quieted down, Director Li said with a smile: “In previous award ceremonies for outstanding doctors, we would always select a highly respected expert to come out and speak. But this year, I have decided to change the usual practice and let Doctor Ye Qiu speak on behalf of everyone.”
“As you can all see, Doctor Ye Qiu is very young, very handsome, and has a very high professional level. He is an example for our young doctors.”
“Therefore, I would like to hear what Doctor Ye Qiu has to say?”
“Let me reveal a little secret to everyone.” Director Li said mysteriously: “Apart from me and Vice Mayor Huang, no one knows that Ye Qiu will speak on behalf of everyone, including Ye Qiu himself.”
Everyone finally understood that it was the leaders’ intention to let Ye Qiu speak.
“Well, let’s welcome Doctor Ye Qiu to speak with warm applause!”
As soon as Director Li’s voice fell, there was sporadic applause at the scene.
The host handed the microphone to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu stood on the stage, his eyes sweeping across the audience. He was a little nervous inside. This was the first time he had spoken in front of so many people, and besides, all the big shots were sitting down.
After contemplation fortenseconds.
Ye Qiu slowly opened his mouth and said: “I have a question for everyone. In this world, who is the happiest?”
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was stunned.
Everyone thought that Ye Qiu would introduce himself first and then say a few words of acceptance speech, but no one expected that Ye Qiu would not play by the rules.
The scene fell into silence.
Everyone was thinking, who is the happiest in the world?
At this time, Ye Qiu on the stage spoke again.
”Who is the happiest person in the world? In fact, there are many answers. A foreign newspaper once conducted a survey on this issue, and there are three answers: First, a doctor who has experienced great risks and finally saved the life of a critically ill patient; second, a mother who has been busy all day and bathed the baby; third, an artist who has just completed a work and is whistling and enjoying it himself.”
”I very much agree with this answer because I am a doctor.”
”The hardships and joys in the work of doctors can be understood by people, and I am very gratified to receive such high praise.”
”Doctors are a selfless profession. Humanity, kindness, concern, and love are our tenets. It is different from any other profession. We face patients with sincerity and enthusiasm, understand the condition, and gain the trust of patients. At the same time, we implement the treatment plan with a rigorous and scientific attitude.”
”If scientists pay the most in terms of reason, and artists pay the most in terms of emotion, then doctors must combine calm reason and passionate emotion, pour out a cavity of painstaking efforts to treat patients, and challenge the disease and death!”
”Who has such courage and pride?”
”I think it’s Bethune, Lin Qiaozhi, Wu Dengyun, Academician Zhong…”
”Their wholehearted service to the people and their work style of striving for excellence have set an immortal monument for us. However, when talking about their affairs, they often say lightly: Because I am a doctor…”
”Because I am a doctor, I have the responsibility to safeguard the interests of patients and care about patients!”
”Because I am a doctor, I must put the patient’s interests first and forget myself!”
”I think the ancients said that a doctor has a kind heart. Probably it is people like them!”
Ye Qiu talked non-stop.
Every pair of eyes stared at him from the audience.
From the initial disdain, it gradually turned into serious listening. Even, at this time, many people at the scene were already thinking about what Ye Qiu said.
Ye Qiu continued to say:
”We are doctors, not gods, not saviors, and of course not omnipotent. However, we are the hope of the patients.”
”No matter how young a doctor is, in the eyes of the patient, he is also an elder, and he can confide everything to us; no matter how incompetent a doctor is, in the eyes of the patient, he is always a sage, and he thinks we can solve everything.”
”Therefore, sometimes I feel that being a doctor is really difficult. In order not to be ashamed of those pairs of trusting eyes, we must work hard, work harder, study, and study harder.”
”Finally, I want to say that as a doctor, being able to taste life in ordinary work and obtain selfless happiness in the struggle with death is a thing that is hard to buy with a thousand gold.”
”Our generation should not forget our original intention and move forward bravely.”
”That’s all for my speech. Thank you!”
When Ye Qiu’s voice fell, the whole audience stood up.
Pa pa pa!
The applause was thunderous, as if it was going to overturn the auditorium.
“Good!” Doctor Ye, you said it’s so nice!
”It’s ten thousand times better than what those previous speakers said!”
”Not only is Doctor Ye young and handsome, but he is also eloquent. It’s really enviable!”
“……”
Without a doubt, Ye Qiu became the brightest star tonight!
The awarding ceremony has basically come to an end here.
Ye Qiu was surrounded by a large group of people asking for his contact information. By the time he and Bai Bing came out of the auditorium, it was already ten o’clock at night.
”Do you have anything to do tonight?” Bai Bing asked.
Ye Qiu shook his head: “Nothing.”
”Then come to my house!”
