As the name suggests, a department meeting is a small academic meeting held in a certain department of the hospital, which is equivalent to a product introduction meeting.
The format of the meeting is that medical representatives bring PPT to give lessons to clinicians, introduce their own products, and obtain medication feedback through Q&A, etc.
But in the context of Zuo Jing’s announcement, it seemed to be just a formality to let the doctors know: “Our new drug has been approved by the boss of your department. We will find a way to include it in the patient’s prescription in the future. Let’s sell the land!”
This puts Ren Erdong into conflict.
He is not afraid of talking about products in meetings. He has been training for a whole month. He has tried PPT presentations on related products countless times and can pick them up easily.
However, lamicoxib is expensive. If doctors overprescribe it and prescribe two boxes to any patient, Ren Erdong's performance will improve, but many innocent people will suffer.
He fought with heaven and man for a long time, and finally decided to bring the medicine shop into the hospital first, and then find a way to collect evidence of the doctor's illegal use of medicine in the future.
When he returned to the company that day to report the news, Qiao Jianbin was overjoyed and proudly showed off his experience: "Thanks to me, right? You have to understand that this era does not belong to the post-90s generation or the post-00s generation, but to those who are thick-skinned!"
Ren Erdong was too lazy to talk to him about these fallacies and immersed himself in preparing the content of the lecture.
Qiao Jianbin called Sister Juan and Zhu Jingshu over and asked them to give them some advice. This was Ren Erdong's first department meeting and it must be done without fail.
The two women shared their experiences, and Sister Juan mentioned it: "There is a sentence at the end of the PPT that you must not read. It is the sentence 'My sharing ends here. Teachers are welcome to ask questions and make corrections.'"
Ren Erdong didn't understand it at all: "That's how the training template ends. Shouldn't every department meeting have a question and answer session?"
Sister Juan was angry and funny: "Hey, are you sure you understand this medicine 100%? What should you do if you can't answer the questions asked by the doctor?"
Zhu Jingshu also advised him: "Yes, this kind of meeting is just a formality anyway. You don't have to follow the script exactly. Just end with 'end of report, thank you for listening' and don't give them a chance to ask questions."
Ren Erdong scratched his head: "Did you always hold department meetings like this before?"
Sister Juan replied casually: "Hey, do you think they will really listen carefully? Sometimes you set up a question and answer session, and no one asks questions."
Zhu Jingshu's answer was even more outrageous: "Let me tell you a personal experience. A few years ago, there was a department meeting for Naibao extended-release tablets. I won't say which hospital. We booked a hotel and invited people from all departments. When After I finished my presentation, I casually asked, ‘Do you have any more questions?’ and someone actually raised their hands. I was so panicked, and guess what?”
Ren Erdong gave her face and asked reluctantly: "What's wrong?"
Sister Juan covered her mouth and smiled: "You didn't answer?"
"That's not true!" Zhu Jingshu rolled her eyes at her and suddenly couldn't help but laugh: "The doctor asked...when will the meal be served...hahaha..."
The two of them burst into laughter, but Ren Erdong only felt embarrassed and sad. The department would introduce the indications and contraindications of drugs, and every word was related to the patient's life and health. This is obviously a very serious matter, how could it be such a joke?
Qiao Jianbin's eyes were sharp. Seeing that Ren Erdong didn't smile, he knew that this kid was "bookish" again, so he immediately enlightened him: "It doesn't matter, we will all be at the scene. Just follow the formal procedures. No matter how big the bug is, we can fix it." Come back round."
Ren Erdong remained silent and opened the training manual. He still planned to review the drug-related literature and data and put the information at the end of the slide in case of emergency.
Fortunately, he made these preparations.
Zuo Jing scheduled the department meeting during the lunch break the next day. The doctors from the Second Department of Orthopedics of the Municipal Hospital were very generous and all attended the meeting.
Perhaps in order to avoid suspicion, Zhang Houlian introduced the background of the meeting with a straight face: "I went to attend an academic conference a while ago, and several colleagues in the industry talked about the drug Lamicoxib, saying that it has remarkable effects and the patients responded extremely well. Excellent. Other hospitals have used this medicine, and some patients have even come to us for consultation with this medicine. As a result, we have not heard of it and do not understand it at all. This is not good and we will fall behind! So today I specially I have invited the business team of TPC Company to come over and tell you about this product. Everyone is welcome!"
Ren Erdong went up to talk, and soon he discovered that these doctors were not as irresponsible as he thought.
Including Zhang Houlian and Zuo Jing, every doctor, whether young or old, was listening carefully. Some of them took notes, and some used their mobile phones to take pictures of the key points of the slides and study them repeatedly. Their enthusiasm for careful study did not seem like they were just going through the motions.
Ren Erdong was in a good mood and talked a lot about his own understanding during the explanation. He used the pharmaceutical knowledge in the university to demonstrate the clinical data. The content of the lecture was novel, professional and interesting.
His professional level was recognized by the doctors, so there were a lot of questions during the Q&A session. Ren Erdong tried his best to answer the questions based on the frequently asked questions, but he still got stuck on one question.
He did not go to Qiao Jianbin to smooth things over, but answered directly: "This is the first time I have encountered this question. I don't know how to talk nonsense. I will go back and check the information and reply as soon as possible."
It can be heard from the warm applause that his frankness has won a lot of goodwill.
Sister Juan, Zhu Jingshu and Qiao Jianbin also applauded below. On the way back to the company, they were full of praise: "Well said, he is born to be a representative." "This guy can do it, he has two brushes." "We will contact each other in the future. I’ll leave all the department meetings to you.”
Ren Erdong was very indifferent: "It's nothing. I think this is what the department should be like. I just did what every representative should do."
What he said was not high in emotional intelligence. He was obviously talking about how good everyone was in the previous department, and he immediately chatted to death.
The atmosphere in the car was awkward for a while, but Sister Juan broke the dullness by finding something to say: "By the way, manager, what's the policy here?"
This is nonsense, but everyone understands it, it’s just a rebate!
Ren Erdong listened to the conversation attentively and quietly touched his watch. This was the closest opportunity he had so far to get closer to the sensitive core issue.
But Qiao Jianbin looked at Zhu Jingshu and Ren Erdong and answered very cautiously: "What Lao Liu decided before, what he still has to do now. This is the basis of trust and cannot be changed casually."
Sister Juan understood and immediately changed the subject: "Tsk, my cancer hospital has to hold such a department meeting, Xiao Ren, you have to help me."
