Wang Lan, the chairman of the jewelry company, used to be a standard businessman, but recently she has become a hot spot for more than a dozen domestic and foreign media, because she has been a volunteer in the SARS hospital for one month. However, if she is not a female boss, but a female worker or a small clerk, will society still pay so much attention to her?
-the director of the nursing department shouted, "It's really coming! I thought it was a joke! "
Wang Lan, the chairman of Daxiong Jewelry Company, devoted himself to business. I'm so busy that I don't even have time to read newspapers and TV. She has great courage. In February and March of 2003, Guangdong and Hongkong were already talking about SARS, but Wang Lan still flew to these two places frequently to discuss business and order goods. It was not until one day that her specialty stores in all major shopping malls in China suddenly became deserted that she realized how much the epidemic had affected China's social economy.
She began to pay attention to the news about SARS. She saw the medical workers fighting in the front line of fighting against SARS, forgetting their lives and working very hard. These reports often upset her.
On April 24th, 2003, her husband, Ma Jian, a hematologist in the 304th Hospital of China People's Liberation Army, came home from work and told her: "Today, our hospital held a mobilization meeting for the whole hospital, and medical staff should be sent to support Xiaotangshan Hospital. I also signed up for the war. " An idea flashed through Wang Lan's mind, and she immediately said, "All right, I'll go if you go!" The husband smiled and said, "You know nothing about medicine. What can you do? " She said, "I can copy it for you." Her handwriting is very good. When she graduated from high school and was unemployed at home 20 years ago, she studied calligraphy with a teacher. Seeing her husband's silence, she added, "I can also clean and take care of the patients."
The next day, the list of the first batch of people supporting Xiaotangshan Hospital in 304 Hospital was published, and there was no husband of Wang Lan. Husband is a little depressed. Wang Lan said to her husband, "Then let's donate some money to the hospital."
She and her husband went to the 304 hospital to meet the political commissar. After the donation, Wang Lan asked the political commissar to volunteer at Xiaotangshan Hospital. The political commissar is grateful for her support for the military medical workers, but she can't satisfy her desire to be a volunteer.
Wang Lan won't give up. She is such a person: she often decides something in a very short time, and once she decides, she will unswervingly put it into practice.
On April 28th, she read a message from the Beijing Times: a nursing worker in ditan hospital resigned for fear of contracting SARS. Her mind flashed: Maybe I can go to ditan hospital. She picked up the phone and called ditan hospital. After the phone call, she felt uneasy. She called Xiaotangshan Hospital, You 'an Hospital and a donation hotline respectively. The operator of the donation hotline told her that we only care about donating money and materials, and volunteers had better go to Beijing Youth Daily. She also called Beijing Youth Daily, which said that we only accept organized volunteers to sign up. She was so anxious that she even said I was organized.
After more than an hour, the phone at home rang. "Is that Wang Lan? I am the nursing department of You 'an Hospital. Come to work at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, and pay 50 yuan one day. " Wang Lan couldn't help laughing: "I don't want a salary ..." "What?" The other party obviously did not expect it.
Putting down the phone, Wang Lan immediately told her husband: "Ma Jian, I will go to You 'an Hospital to be a volunteer tomorrow!" With excitement and excitement, her face turned red and she spoke quickly and loudly. She smiled: "Are you kidding? The hospital doesn't seem to believe that I don't want money! " The husband said, "You must be too excited to say clearly. Let me explain something to you. "
Wang Lan's husband hung up. As soon as he announced his name, the other party said, "Oh, Wang Lan's lover, if you don't support her, she can't come tomorrow ..." Wang Lan's husband quickly said, "I fully support her. I just want to tell you that we really don't want money. Wang Lan doesn't work in a hospital to earn money. She is the boss of the company! "
Early the next morning, Wang Lan's husband drove Wang Lan to You 'an Hospital. As soon as I saw them, the director of the nursing department shouted, "It's really coming! I thought it was a joke! "
The dean and the party secretary of the hospital also came to the nursing department. The secretary asked Wang Lan again, "Are you ready? Really not afraid? " Wang Lan said, "I have made up my mind. Arrange for me to work in the ward. " The dean said: "People who don't know medical treatment can't easily enter the polluted area. It is enough for you to work in the clean area. We are very grateful. We will protect you! "
The director of the nursing department immediately assigned Wang Lan a task: "Today, 30 nurses from the Chemical Engineering Hospital came to our hospital to change their posts. Your main task is to take care of their lives. "
Relevant personnel explained the knowledge of disinfection and isolation protection to Wang Lan in detail. These, her husband had told her the night before, but Wang Lan wrote them down carefully. She understands that the teaching in the hospital and her husband's advice are different in meaning.
Wang Lan got a big black and blue overalls, got a shot in the arm and entered a new role. -Wang Lan, who has been smelling French perfume, smelled garbage on this day.
The head nurse took Wang Lan to a row of rooms on the second floor and pointed out to her, "You are responsible for these five rooms."
The house used to be used by doctors studying AIDS, and some things haven't moved yet. Wang Lan sweeps the floor first, and then cleans the windows and bedplates with the rest of the things. The toilet in the corridor was dirty, and no one told her that the bathroom was also in her charge, but she thought it must be her own business, so she brushed the bathroom.
According to the instructions of the staff of the hospital logistics department, she went to an old worker to clean up the garbage in the corridor. The old man took a look at her and took her as a new temporary worker. "Take out the garbage? It's not my job. If it were mine, I wouldn't do it I only get 500 yuan a month. " Wang Lan said, "Grandpa, don't stop. At this special time, everyone is tired. Otherwise, I will supply you. " The old man was happy: "Are you still making money here to supply me?" Wang Lan said, "I'm here to do my duty." The old man was surprised: "Are you on duty? Ok, just rush here, girl, I'll do it with you! "
Wang Lan, which always smells of French perfume, smells of garbage rot on this day.
Near the afternoon 10, I went back to the dormitory arranged by the hospital for myself. About seven or eight square meters of big hut, concrete floor, with an iron bunk bed, two bedside tables and a chair.
Close the door and look around, Wang Lan suddenly felt sad.
She asked herself: How did I come here to live?
The company employee called her: "Sister Lan, what are you doing? What if ... so many of us are pointing at you! " The little girl sobbed as she spoke.
Late at night, she called her husband: "Ma Jian, I can't sleep ..."
The husband said, "Are you too tired? Be sure to sleep well. Insomnia can lead to decreased immunity. I'll send you valium tomorrow. "
She said, "Ma Jian, what will you do if I get SARS?"
The husband said, "You won't catch it."
"What if it is contagious?" She asked stubbornly.
Obviously, this problem was unexpected by her husband. The husband thought for a long time before answering her: "Then I will stay with you and take care of you."
"What if I die?"
My husband really can't answer. The husband just kept saying, "No, no ..."
She lived in the hospital dormitory for five days, and every night, her husband came to see her in You 'an Hospital. Can't go in, they are chatting at the gate.
Every night, she has to take sleeping pills to sleep.
At dawn, she woke up as long as there was a little noise in the corridor.
She cleans the temporary living environment of nurses in chemical hospital every day and collects all kinds of daily and work supplies for them.
She ate a box lunch with the nurses. Sometimes when lunch is not enough, she quietly walks away and asks her husband to bring her rice. I also asked my husband to buy a lot of cucumbers, tomatoes and fruits for everyone.
She queues up with the nurses to wash clothes with the washing machine every afternoon. One day, she happened to know that nurses needed paper underwear, so she asked the company employees to purchase more than 10 thousand pieces in bulk and send them to the hospital.
Suddenly one day, it was reported that two nurses in the hospital had a fever. One of them lived across the street from Wang Lan, and her five roommates were immediately quarantined. Wang Lan heard about it at lunch, when her heart thumped.
Those days, the atmosphere in this two-story building was particularly dignified, and Wang Lan's spirit was a little nervous. She asked herself: Do you want to go on?
She chose to move on.
On the sixth day of volunteering in Wang Lan, You 'an Hospital made a decision: this two-story building for medical staff to stay on duty will also be transformed into an SARS ward, and all medical staff will live in the nearby business hall. Wang Lan doesn't have to take care of the life of the medical team in the chemical hospital. She was transferred to the disinfection department to help.
Before moving home, she cleaned the room where she lived and found that the hospital had replaced her with a new quilt core.
-Wang Lan, who seldom shed tears, cried several times in more than ten days.
The new job is to spray disinfectant to the office area on the first floor of the hospital and hepatitis clinic twice a day, using peracetic acid with a concentration of two thousandths.
In the evening, on the way back after spraying disinfectant, she met an elderly couple, who asked her where to deliver meals to patients. After telling the story, she asked, "Who did you send it to, aunt and uncle?"
"Give it to that prostitute." The old lady said, "Her name is Cao Lei, and she is a doctor at Factory Bridge Hospital. She caught it to save three SARS patients, and she is out of breath ... Let's send her some jiaozi, which is her favorite food at ordinary times. I know that I am working, I am 26 years old, and I have no object yet. "
"Which ward does she live in?"
"Senses 2."
"Feel two," Wang Lan breathed a sigh of relief: "Aunt is fine. The second feeling is underage patients. Your daughter will be fine. "
She didn't expect that for her words, the old man bowed again and again: "Thank you for your kind words! This prostitute is too important to our family! "
The old couple snuggled up to each other and walked to the delivery room, carefully holding the lunch box from Wang Lan's eyes. Wang Lan saw a note posted on the lunch box: "Cao Lei, you must hold on, your parents are waiting for you to go home."
Tears welled up in Wang Lan's eyes. She wears rubber gloves and a 40-layer gauze mask, so she can't wipe herself. She ordered herself to stop crying, but she couldn't. Smell makes the mask covering the nose and mouth shrink, and soon, the thick mask is soaked with tears.
From that day on, this young female doctor who had never met before became Wang Lan's concern.
She asked Captain Li of the chemical hospital in charge of the "Gan Er" ward about Cao Lei's illness. Captain Li told her that although she lived in the "Gan Er" ward, Cao Lei was a serious patient.
She froze for a long time.
After returning home in the evening, she wrote a letter to Cao Lei. She felt that her whole body was heavy, especially her head, and she couldn't lift it, so she put her left elbow on the table and held her chin in her left hand and insisted on writing the letter.
She chose to give this letter, a carefully selected mascot and a box of cooked jiaozi to Cao Lei on the day of Nurses' Day.
When she sprayed medicine in the clean area, her cell phone rang.
She put down the sprayer, ran to the entrance of the building in three steps and two steps, took off her gloves and isolation suit, and took out her mobile phone from behind the innermost clothes and put it to her ear.
She heard a weak and panting female voice: "Sister Wang Lan, this is Cao Lei. Letters and mascots have been received. Jiaozi is delicious. Thank you, I will definitely visit you when I leave the hospital. "
"Cao Lei, why are you breathing so fast?" She asked.
"I'm so excited. I didn't expect people in our small hospital to care about doctors. " Wang Lan heard that, Cao Lei sobbed.
"Cao Lei, I'm not a person who cares about you. There are so many people. You must be optimistic! Only optimism can defeat SARS. When you are ready, I'll introduce you to someone ... "Wang Lan said a series of words in one breath until Cao Lei laughed.
Turn off the phone, Wang Lan himself cried again.
Wang Lan seldom shed tears, because she doesn't believe in doing business. But since she volunteered at You 'an Hospital, she cried several times in just over ten days. Even she doesn't understand how her feelings have become so fragile.
Some medical staff struggling in the front line of fighting SARS have children under one year old. When it comes to missing children, Wang Lan cried. The husband is also an army nurse, suffering from severe rectocele. Seeing her lying in bed for a long time after work, Wang Lan cried.
One Sunday afternoon, she went to the western suburbs on business. Private cars are parked everywhere on both sides of the road leading to Xiangshan. Many families are playing happily on the grass with yellow flowers. This reminded her of the medical staff and patients who struggled with the disease under difficult conditions, and she shed tears again.
-she is holding big trouser legs, pushing a car with disinfectant in front, followed by Wang Lan who often sighs in her mind.
She also cried for section chief Yu of the disinfection department.
The section chief, Lian Congcong, is only 48 years old this year, but his hair has lost half. She had a half-white short hair, and strangers often thought she was a man at first glance.
Her voice is loud, pungent, capable, outspoken and informal. Since the first case of SARS was admitted to You 'an Hospital, she has been working for more than 60 days without a day off, often working for more than ten hours a day.
There are *** 14 people in the disinfection department, including the elderly and patients. During the SARS period, the workload of disinfection department doubled, but the number of personnel did not increase. She took Cory's people and disinfected several wards a day; More than ten or twenty kilograms of a barrel of disinfectant stock solution were shipped 100 bottles in one day.
For people in the disinfection department, the hardest job is to disinfect the ward. Disinfect the ward, and the concentration of peracetic acid should reach five thousandths. Wang Lan can't forget the smell of disinfection in the ward with the section chief for the first time.
Heavy protective clothing makes every step of the leg very laborious. The nose and mouth are panting hard behind the 60-layer mask, and the protective glasses are full of their own exhaled breath. The high concentration of liquid medicine filled the room with white fog, and sour gas got into Wang Lan's nostrils through the 60-layer mask. Every time I spray a room and close the door from the outside, I hear the door click. ...
This wait is three or four hours.
I have high blood pressure. Every day before putting on protective clothing and going to the ward for disinfection, she takes a antihypertensive drug. Sometimes when she comes back from work and sees someone sitting in the office, she pretends to be angry and shouts, "You want to kill my mother!" " Those who took time to catch their breath slipped out of the office, took the sprayer and left.
The people under her privately said to Wang Lan, "Working with old people is the most tiring!" But whether they follow the "old-fashioned" or not, no one is ambiguous at work. This probably corresponds to an old saying: "A strong general has no weak soldiers under him".
After work, Wang Lan likes to chat with Yu Liancong.
Yu Liancong said to Wang Lan, "I have never been a woman in my life." She entered You 'an Hospital at the age of 17 and worked here for 3 1 year. "When I entered the hospital, I was wearing this work clothes. I wear it all day, all year round. "
She is wearing a pair of 10 yuan shoes and carrying a bag from 5 yuan. She doesn't have any indispensable clothes that all fashionable women like.
People who have never been women have the softest hearts.
She saw from the Dabao True Love Interactive Program on Beijing TV that a husband donated one of his kidneys to save his wife suffering from uremia, which made him lose his ability to work and raise children, so she took out 200 yuan from her limited salary every month and sent it to the unknown teenager.
She read in the newspaper that the director of the respiratory department of China-Japan Friendship Hospital was critically ill and needed the serum of O-type SARS patients, so she wanted to find a place to test her blood. She said, "I have type O blood. After working in the polluted area for so many days, maybe I have antibodies in my blood ... "
She told Wang Lan: "Reducing the hospital infection rate is the goal of our work. My happiest thing at the moment is to watch SARS patients recover and leave the hospital, which is also my life value! "
Wang Lan has been a competitive person since he was a child. In today's society, people regard wealth as a symbol of success. Wang Lan never served anyone when fighting for power and profit. But in this place far away from money, she envied the section chief of disinfection who had no wealth. Sometimes I go to work with Yu. He walks in front of me with a big trouser leg and pushes a car with disinfectant. Wang Lan who follows me often sighs in his mind. When she told the reporter the story of Disinfector, she was so excited that she used the word "great".
However, none of the reporters who came to You 'an Hospital like a merry-go-round interviewed the disinfection department and the disinfection section chief.
Wang Lan couldn't help thinking of his most familiar gem.
Hundreds of millions of years of stratum pressure and tens of millions of degrees of high temperature burning make this ore have unparalleled luster and hardness. Some of the jewels made from them are priceless. But before they were buried in the ground and not mined, polished and carved, they did not have bright luster, clear texture and charming form.
People only praise and support jewelry made of precious stones, but seldom pay attention to those precious stones in their original state, which is called "original stone" in jargon. There are also many people who don't know the intrinsic value of the original stone because of its rough shape.
However, people in the jewelry industry appreciate the gem deposits buried deep underground most, because that is the source of their wealth. The people who have the greatest wealth are those who own gem mines.
She further thought of herself.
Since May 1 day, Beijing Evening News has published the first news of her volunteering in You 'an Hospital. Over the past half month, more than ten media at home and abroad have interviewed her. When making this decision, she and her husband didn't expect the result at all.
However, if she is not a female boss, but a female worker or a small clerk, will society still pay so much attention to her?
Is it true: if a country, a nation and a society pay attention to elites and stars, they should not forget to pay attention to the living conditions of the masses; While praising heroic epic feats, we should not forget to praise those ordinary but equally arduous and noble contributions, so that this country, nation and society will have stronger cohesion and stronger power to resist disasters?
People are deeply moved by Wang Lan's behavior these days, and Wang Lan is grateful for his experience these days.
In a few days, Wang Lan will end her volunteer life and return to the company. She gave the tape recorder to Captain Ali and asked her to help record the touching story between medical staff and patients. She wants to give them to the media when she has a chance, so that they can spread them later.
It's getting hotter every day, and my family prepared watermelons and cherries for Wang Lan to get rid of the fire. Eating a meal, Wang Lan thought of the patients in the isolation ward. With the consent of the hospital, she asked the employees to buy enough watermelons and cherries so that every patient could have one.
What she did touched many people who knew or didn't know her. In early May, Zhang Yue, a well-known host of CCTV, found a guest for the live program "The Road to Health", and a screenwriter recommended Wang Lan. He said to Zhang Yue, "I despise businessmen the most, but Wang Lan changed my mind."
Volunteer life has changed Wang Lan.
She comes from an ordinary worker's family. With her wisdom and hard work, she finally achieved commercial success. Since then, she has been divorced from her original life and away from ordinary workers. In the past, what she cared about and devoted herself to was mainly her own career. She has never cared about the living conditions, joys and sorrows of society and ordinary people as much as she did in these days of voluntary service. She also understands many people she didn't understand in the past, including her husband who is a doctor.
They are both very busy at ordinary times, and she once complained that her husband cared too little about herself. But now she knows that a responsible and caring doctor is sometimes really busy when he devotes himself wholeheartedly to saving lives. It is this conscientious investment that can also be said to be a kind of contribution, which constructs the professional ethics of doctors.
She said gratefully, "It was fate that brought me to You 'an Hospital! "
Being able to help others and society is a kind of happiness; Putting this ability into practice is a kind of beauty.
The jewelry industry she is engaged in also adds beauty to the world.
But the beauty of jewelry can only be better highlighted under the mapping of spotlight; The beauty of good deeds can be the light that illuminates the world.
