Chapter 422: As Long As You Want It, I Have It
The surgery was done very quickly. The second-stage surgery for eight patients went without a hitch.
Under Zheng Ren’s hands, TIPS surgery was just as worthless as cabbages.
It was the same, regardless of whether it was the first or second-stage surgery.
After the surgery, Zheng Ren firmly refused the invitations from Ren Haitao, Director Ren, and Director Zhang. He said that he needed to go back for the surgery, getting into Feng Xuhui’s car as he prepared to leave.
Before he got into the car, Director Zhang stuffed the black bag he was carrying into Zheng Ren’s hand.
The black bag was heavy as if it had bricks and tiles inside.
“Chief Zheng, this is the labor fee for the two surgeries. The hospital has decided to pay you twenty thousand yuan in professional fees. It’s a round figure from a hundred thousand yuan, so it’s considered more auspicious. “This… This is the Secondary Hospital’s gratitude to you, ” Director Zhang whispered into Zheng Ren’s ear with a smile.
This was the biggest sum of money Zheng Ren had ever received in his life. However, he did not care. He smiled and said, “Director Zhang, if possible, I’d like to trouble you in helping me find some patients who require TIPS surgery. ”
Director Zhang was stunned for a moment before smiling bitterly. “Of course, of course.”
Previously, when Zheng Ren asked how many patients he could get at the General Hospital, Director Zhang boasted that he could get as many as he wanted.
However, he had not expected that when Zheng Ren performed the TIPS surgery, it would be as easy as performing a liver cyst puncture under an ultrasound. It was simple and effortless, with no difficulties at all.
Even if he had tears in his eyes, he had to make up for it.
Director Zhang had on a bitter face as he said, “Director Zheng, I’ll try my best on my end. However, the next patient’s condition might not be as stable. ”
“That’s fine. ” Zheng Ren smiled, full of confidence.
“Okay, ” Director Zhang said, gritting his teeth.
Zheng Ren bid farewell to everyone in the second people’s Hospital and got into Feng Xuhui’s car.
As soon as he got into the car, two people exited from the crowd. One of them was a middle-aged man in his forties. He smiled gently and said, “Director Zheng, sorry to bother you. I’m Gao Shaojie who’s been told to visit the hospital and study under you.”
In the operating theater, he had been wearing a hat and mask, so Zheng Ren could not remember exactly who was who.
When Gao Shaojie introduced himself, Zheng Ren suddenly remembered that there was indeed a doctor who had conversed with him then.
He was going to the General Hospital together with him?
Zheng Ren was stunned. Gao Shaojie smiled and said, “Chief Zheng, I guess we’ll be working together then.”
After he said that, he opened the car door and sat inside.
Wang Qiang was not that thick-skinned, feeling embarrassed in front of the director and deputy director.
He had no choice but to drive himself.
Teacher Gao…was quite an unexpected person.
Feng Xuhui was a little surprised, but he did not want to offend anyone. He glanced at Zheng Ren and used his eyes to ask Zheng Ren for his opinion on this.
Zheng Ren did not mind. He was in a hurry to go back and experiment with radiofrequency ablation, so he quickly let Feng Xuhui drive back to the General Hospital.
On the way back, the atmosphere in the car was a little awkward. After all, Gao Shaojie was a stranger. It did not matter how much Gao Shaojie spoke, Zheng Ren just continued humming away. His indifferent attitude was simply too obvious.
However, he was very talkative when Professor Rudolf Wagner was around. Also, today’s TIPS surgery had gone quite smoothly. Not only had Zheng Ren improved, but the professor had also accumulated experience points. His excitement was beyond words.
He could not have been any purer. Nowadays, not many people spoke in a Northeastern dialect to Gao Shaojie as they traveled back all the way back to Sea City General Hospital.
The professor had Gao Shaojie dumbfounded. As a Northeasterner himself, Gao Shaojie doubted his own identity as they got out of the car.
Judging from his accent, the professor was the true Northeasterner, while he was a foreigner.
However, Gao Shaojie had learned a lot along the way.
He knew that Professor Rudolf Wagner came from the Heidelberg University Medical Center.
The Heidelberg University Medical Center was famous. The Columbia University Medical Center that Gao Shaojie had graduated from was considered on par with it.
He also knew of Professor Rudolf Wagner by name but had never had the chance to meet him until now. He did not expect to meet this world-class professor in Sea City to be helping his own disciple in surgery. Moreover, their relationship was strange too.
Soon, he arrived at Sea City’s General Hospital emergency building.
Zheng Ren had already contacted Zheng Yunxia who was ready and waiting for him at the operating theater so that the surgery could begin.
It was not that Zheng Ren was anxious. However, the radiofrequency ablation needed to be performed under a CT…
During the day, the CT room was packed with people. How would they have enough time to perform the surgery? This was not a Class-Three Grade A Hospital in Imperial Capital or Sorcery Capital. Their interventional department had specialized CT machines.
If they wanted to perform radiofrequency ablation, they had to rush to the CT room immediately after regular work hours.
However, there was one thing that saved them from worry. Whether it was Zheng Ren or Su Yun, both of them knew how to operate the CT machine. There was no need to leave a doctor alone in the CT room.
Zheng Ren let Su Yun handle this matter. He believed that Su Yun could manage it. At the very least, there was still Director Pan.
After getting out of the car, Zheng Ren suddenly remembered something that made him break out in cold sweat.
It was such a sudden thought that Zheng Ren almost forgot about it completely.
“Manager Feng, do you have the radiofrequency ablation machine and puncture needle with you? I remember…that I seemed to have told you about them, ” Zheng Ren asked, a little embarrassed.
If he did not, there would be a blunder in the situation.
He only wanted to perform surgery. If he did not have the necessary equipment… Zheng Ren complained to himself many times in his heart.
He could not just think about surgery. Currently, the General Hospital of Sea City was considered to be doing quite poorly when it came to interventional surgery. Therefore, it was very much different from Director Kong’s side in the Imperial Capital as they would not have much to work with.
Feng Xuhui smiled and said, “Director Zheng, think about what you’ve said. You’ve given Changfeng your full support so I definitely can’t drop the ball on my side. Of course I remember what you’ve told me.”
Zheng Ren heaved a sigh of relief.
“The machine is in the trunk. I’ve brought twenty puncture needles with me, and the rest have been placed in the operating theater. As long as you need it, and as long as China Changfeng has it, I’ll definitely give you my full support, ” Feng Xuhui said, a determined look shining through his pimply face.
“Changfeng? Is it the one made in China?” Gao Shaojie asked from the back seat.
“Yes, Teacher Gao. We’re the company with the most advanced equipment and technology in China,” Feng Xuhui said proudly.
“I see,” Gao Shaojie did not respond as he began to ponder.
It seemed that Director Zheng and Changfeng were very close. As Director Zheng was young and these big, multinational big manufacturers and companies were like giants, they did not realize the Director Zheng’s importance. He reflected on this for quite some time before realising the amazing opportunity that Changfeng was giving.
Should he use Changfeng’s equipment too?
To be honest, Gao Shaojie was not willing to use domestic equipment.
Compared to equipment from a multinational company, the usability of domestic equipment was much worse. If 10% was considered the standard, using domestic equipment meant that one would only be able to perform 70% of the surgery.
However, the advantages were that domestic equipment was cheap. After all, expensive technology was not something that everyone could afford.
Gao Shaojie thought of a backup plan for himself. If Chief Zheng’s surgery was impeccable, Gao Shaojie would definitely invite him to the Medical University’s affiliated hospital to conduct surgery.
When the time came, Zheng Ren would definitely have to make a request for equipment.
Gao Shaojie had thought far ahead. He was already planning to invite Zheng Ren to do the surgery.
