Chapter 581: Surgical Recording

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“What are you studying, Shaojie?” A voice came from behind. Gao Shaojie who was concentrating on the second-stage TIPS surgery that Zheng Ren mentioned removing the recyclable stent was in a trance for a moment.

The voice was so familiar that it interrupted Gao Shaojie’s thoughts.

Gao Shaojie turned his head and was stunned to see Chief Jin accompanied by Chief Qi who was standing behind him with a smile.

“h.e.l.lo, Chief Qi,” Gao Shaojie immediately said politely.

“This is…”

“Chief Qi, this is Zheng Ren. Teacher Zheng, to be exact,” Gao Shaojie immediately introduced. “Boss, this is our hospital’s Chief Qi.”

Chief Qi was shocked but his expression did not change. He reached out his hand and shook Zheng Ren’s hand. They could be considered acquaintances.

Boss? Usually, only those with provincial-level research funds could be addressed as boss.

Of course, many doctors in small hospitals would also address their chiefs as a boss for fun.

However, Gao Shaojie was definitely not that kind of person.

Chief Qi’s mind was racing as he began to recall the provincial-level research funds this year.

No. Could it be like Chief Lin said Department Chief Kong of Imperial Capital Hospital had contacted the national-level Natural Science Fund?

‘Boss Zheng is in his prime. I’m so envious,’ Chief Qi thought to himself but said something else.

That kind of skill was necessary for official business and Chief Qi had already mastered it.

As a senior director, there was no need for him to be so polite to a junior doctor. However, when Chief Qi caught a glimpse of Professor Rudolf Wagner standing behind Zheng Ren, he guessed that…perhaps this was the world’s top professor of interventional medicine that his cla.s.smate had mentioned.

It was better to be polite. After all, it was unlikely that they would fall out and become enemies.

“You are too polite,” Zheng Ren said with a smile.

Seeing that Chief Qi kept glancing at the scan from the corner of his eyes, Zheng Ren said, “I’m studying the technique of recycling stents for the second-stage TIPS surgery with Old Gao.”

“You guys can continue,” Chief Qi said with a smile.

Zheng Ren did not bother with pleasantries. Time was limited. He did not know when was the next time he would be at the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University.

Gao Shaojie needed to master the technique of removing the second-stage TIPS surgery’s recyclable stents as soon as possible so that he could leave with ease.

That was the difference between medical treatment and other industries.

In other industries if one resigned or changed jobs, he or she would just leave. However, the medical industry was not like that. The old patients in the past had to be entrusted to a reliable person so that they would feel better.

Zheng Ren wished that he could impart all the experience he had acc.u.mulated in the System’s operating theater to Gao Shaojie.

However, seeing Gao Shaojie’s thoughtful and confused face, Zheng Ren also knew that he could not rush things.

There were many things that needed to be honed through surgery in order for one to understand it deeper.

If Gao Shaojie could master the surgical techniques this time, his level of intervention could also be raised to the Grandmaster level.

It was eight o’clock and their shift had started early.

As the head hospital’s head chief was waiting for the surgery, the early shift ended hastily. Gao Shaojie began to send the patients to the operating theater.

Chief Qi and Zheng Ren chatted as they walked toward the operating theater.

He was very surprised that Zheng Ren was only the emergency department’s chief resident at Sea City General Hospital. He felt a little disdainful in his heart.

A chief resident did not even have the qualifications to perform TIPS surgery even though he was a doctor specializing in interventional surgery. Moreover from the conversation, he knew that Zheng Ren came from the General Surgery Department.

A small place like that really did not specialize in anything. These were all hidden medical problems, Chief Qi thought to himself.

However, he did not say it out loud. He was still full of enthusiasm.

After learning about the situation last night, he contacted his cla.s.smates in the United States and went online overnight. He saw the article published in the latest issue of The New England Journal of Medicine.

Back then, Chief Qi was also an elite in the medical field. He was a level eight English major.

Although the medical field was now divided very finely and Chief Qi could not understand all kinds of professional terms, it did not affect him from seeing the name of the first author.

It really was Zheng Ren.

He contacted the recording surgery overnight. Chief Lin of the medical affairs department had completed the legal procedures and was as busy as a dog.

However, that had nothing to do with Chief Qi. He was preparing to send the video information to his cla.s.smates after the surgery. When he heard that the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University was going to perform the latest TIPS surgery today, he could not wait any longer.

After changing his clothes, Zheng Ren went to the operating theater.

Gao Shaojie personally laid out the sheet. Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf Wagner stood in front of the film reader in the operating theater to confirm that the patient’s name was the same as the film. After that, they began to read the film one last time before the surgery.

“Boss, it’s done,” Gao Shaojie said very quickly.

The surgery today would be recorded. Gao Shaojie was a little excited, very much so.

The person who needed the video data did not need to care who the surgeon was. Moreover, Gao Shaojie smelled a hint of impatience from the matter of contacting the surgery recording studio overnight.

Gao Shaojie was very happy that he was finally ahead of them.

The professor did not go on stage. He walked out of the operating room, crossed his arms, and looked at the surgery through the lead-lined gla.s.s.

Chief Qi came over and asked, “Excuse me, are you Professor Rudolf Wagner of Heidelberg University?”

“Yes,” the professor said while laughing.

Chief Qi almost fell down when he heard the professor’s strong Northeastern accent.

What was going on?

He was in a daze. A German professor who spoke with a Northeastern accent? That kind of creature did not exist in Chief Qi’s world at all.

“Say it, what do you want?” Professor Rudolf Wagner asked.

“Uh…” Chief Qi was stunned for a moment before he forced out a smile and said, “Professor, I saw the article published in the New England Journal of Medicine yesterday.”

The professor was proud but looked down at Chief Qi.

“The new tactic can be said to be subversive.” Chief Qi did not know how to do interventional surgery, so he could only repeat the student’s words exactly as they were. “Congratulations.”

“We should congratulate our boss.” The professor said, “Since you saw the article, didn’t you see who the first author was?”

Chief Qi was stunned.

That was also what he could not figure out.

Could it be true?

“The boss created it. I just learned it along with him. Of course, I also did some work in perfecting the technique,” the professor said.

Chief Qi really did not know how to respond.

His worldview, outlook on life, and values were all shattered and he could not even put them back together.

Recalling Chief Lin’s att.i.tude when he told him a few days ago that he was going to take in a small doctor, he felt a little regretful.

If he had acted earlier, would he have been able to poach this person to the Provincial Capital?

However, he also knew that with Imperial Capital Hospital helping him, the possibility of him keeping that person was really not high either.

Moreover, it was a matter of water turning into oil over many years, so it was diligent effort throughout the years that had made him even more vigilant.

It was better to wait until the surgery was over and send the video to his cla.s.smates to confirm it.

While he was pondering in his mind, the door of the operating theater opened. Zheng Ren had already taken off his sterile gloves and walked out.

“Boss, Boss Gao is very skilled. He’s almost catching up to my speed.” The professor walked up to him with a smile. The way he spoke was completely different from when he was conversing with Chief Qi before.
