Chinese medicine: from rural hospitals to top three hospitals in Kyoto

Chapter 802 Hidden Mission

The next day, eight o'clock in the morning.

The spacious conference hall was packed with hepatobiliary experts from all over the world.

The scale of this international conference on extrahepatic medicine was indeed larger than the Lingnan Traditional Chinese Medicine Exchange Conference, with nearly 200 doctors in the extrahepatic field gathered at the venue.

Except for the first few rows with nameplates, everyone in the back can sit anywhere they want.

Those who are qualified to be displayed with nameplates are authorities in the domestic hepatobiliary field and chief physicians of nationally renowned tertiary hospitals.

Naturally, Chen Xingwu and Chen Yang were not qualified to have nameplates, so the two found a place to sit in the back row of the conference room.

Even so, Chen Xingwu still seemed very excited. He looked around and whispered an introduction to Chen Yang.

"That should be Director Tang Minxue from the Shanghai Jiaotong University Hospital... That one over there is Director Deng Bomin from the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department of Xihua Hospital..."

Following Chen Xingwu's introduction, Chen Yang took a look at several big names on the scene. Those mentioned by Chen Xingwu were all top figures in the industry, like Zhong Dongyang.

In other words, you have to at least rank in the top 20 in the field, otherwise you won’t be that famous.

If a doctor is known by his peers in other provinces and cities, his level must be extraordinary.

"That person should be Professor Borg from the United States."

As several middle-aged men surrounded a white middle-aged man and walked into the venue, many people looked over, and Chen Xingwu also introduced him to Chen Yang.

This time, the Shen City International Conference on Hepatobiliary Surgery was hosted by the Shen City Hepatobiliary Surgery Academic Research Center and sponsored by the Orson Group, a multinational medical device company.

Kemu Borg is the foreign expert invited to this event.

Modern medicine is also known as Western medicine in my country. Precisely because modern medicine originated in the West, for hundreds of years, my country's modern medical level has always lagged behind that of developed Western countries.

Although my country's medical level has developed rapidly in the past three decades, and many fields have reached or even exceeded the international level in some areas, it has to be admitted that in many fields, there is still a certain gap between my country's medical level and that of Western developed countries.

Borg was invited by the Orson Group to demonstrate Orson's latest medical equipment.

The reason why so many authorities in the field of hepatobiliary surgery were invited to attend the international medical conference in Shen City this time was somewhat related to Borg.

At the beginning of the opening ceremony, the host introduced the leaders and experts who came first. Then the leaders of the organizer and several authoritative figures in the industry delivered enthusiastic speeches, expressing warm congratulations on the convening of this conference and welcoming the participants. At the same time, they also hoped that everyone could actively communicate and discuss in depth during the conference to jointly promote the development of the field of hepatobiliary surgery.......

When the host introduced him, Chen Xingwu couldn't help but envy: "When will I attend a meeting of this level and be introduced by the host? It means I am at the top of the field."

"I believe that there will be such a day, and then Director Chen will be like Director Zhong." Chen Yang said with a smile.

Chen Xingwu smiled and said, "I think it's difficult, but it's possible for you, Doctor Chen."

Chen Xingwu really couldn't imagine being the top expert in the country.

After the opening ceremony, the academic report session began.

The first person to take the stage was Professor Borg from the United States. Borg shared their team's latest research results in the early diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer and put forward some novel ideas and methods, which attracted widespread attention and heated discussion from the audience.

Next, several domestic experts took turns to take the stage and gave in-depth explanations on hot topics such as minimally invasive treatment of liver tumors and technical improvements in liver transplantation surgery, demonstrating my country's research progress and technical strength in the field of hepatobiliary surgery.

......

At Shen City Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, Xia Hongliang was obviously a little absent-minded.

"What's wrong? Are you worried about something today?" Lin Yi asked Xia Hongliang with a smile.

"Director Lin, don't you have any worries?" Xia Hongliang asked Lin Yi with a smile.

Lin Yi smiled slightly and said, "How about we take a day off tomorrow?"

Xia Hongliang immediately laughed: "Then I have to follow Director Lin. I am a deputy director, how can I have the freedom that Director Lin has."

Lin Yi glared at Xia Hongliang. As Xia Wenyao’s grandson, what status did he have in the hospital? Needless to say?

The status of the Xia family in the medical world of Shen City is much higher than that of the Han and Li families in Lingnan. After all, there is only one Xia family in the entire Shen City, while there are several aristocratic families in Lingnan.

"I wonder."

Xia Hongliang was puzzled: "Chen Yang is so young, where does he get so much energy to be so outstanding in so many aspects?"

"Shocked?"

Lin Yi said unhappily: "You should know that I was also puzzled before. You spend your days drinking and partying, why haven't you fallen behind......"

Xia Hongliang: “….”

For a moment, Xia Hongliang was a little speechless. Maybe in the eyes of others, he was a genius, but now in his eyes, Chen Yang was a genius.

It is true that there is always a mountain higher than the other.

As he was speaking, a call came in on Xia Hongliang's cell phone which was placed on the table.

Lin Yi took a look and saw a profile picture of a beautiful woman.

Xia Hongliang reached out and hung up.

"Why don't you go on dates with beautiful girls recently?" Lin Yi asked with a smile.

"It's boring." Xia Hongliang replied calmly: "I'll go to the ward to take a look."

Watching Xia Hongliang go away, Lin Yi couldn't help but smiled and shook his head.

Finally, someone was able to tame this young eagle of the Xia family.

......

[Hidden tasks, unlock modern surgical skills! ]

Chen Yang and Chen Xingwu were listening to the experts' sharing on the stage when they suddenly noticed a system prompt.

"Activate modern surgical skills?"

Looking at the system prompt, Chen Yang was stunned for a moment.

"Is the hidden mission going to start now?"

This system is somewhat of a simulation of the game mode. You can open treasure chests, increase experience points, and complete tasks, but it does not actively issue tasks. Instead, just like playing a game, certain conditions are required to unlock tasks.

Moreover, Chen Yang is not the kind of person who likes to do tasks, so he rarely pays attention to tasks.

However, this hidden mission aroused Chen Yang's interest.

If traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine are counted as two professions respectively, it means that Chen Yang chose the traditional Chinese medicine profession in the game at the beginning, and the current hidden task allows Chen Yang to unlock the modern surgical skills in the Western medicine profession?

This means that a warrior can learn magician skills!

Well, that's about right.

【Participate in a surgery during the event and get a certain degree of recognition! 】

The task description is quite simple and quite "clear"!

Chen Yang looked at the hidden tasks given by the system, and ripples appeared in his heart. It was really like someone giving him a pillow when he was sleepy.

If the modern surgical skill can be unlocked, then Chen Yang may be able to draw a skill book on modern surgical skills when he draws a treasure chest in the future.

Although it is easier for Chen Yang to learn surgery than other doctors with the current system, it would be even better if he could draw treasure chests.

However, the difficulty of this task is not small.

Participating in the operation and gaining recognition may seem like a simple requirement, but it means that he must demonstrate impressive strength at this international conference full of experts.

First of all, it is quite difficult to participate in surgery in such an event.

Even though Chen Xingwu told Chen Yang when they came that he might be able to get a chance to observe the surgery, the possibility of this is actually about the same as the possibility of winning five million in the lottery.

The main reason why Chen Xingwu came this time was to broaden his horizons. The reason why he brought Chen Yang with him was actually to get closer to Chen Yang.

At a meeting of this level, Chen Xingwu was a young man with few acquaintances. Where did the opportunity come from?

Not to mention Chen Xingwu, even if Gao Tiancheng came, he might not have a chance. If it were that easy, Gao Tiancheng would not easily give the opportunity to Chen Xingwu.

The surgical demonstration will be tomorrow, so there is no rush today, but Chen Yang has to find a way to participate in the operation.

During lunch, Chen Yang asked Chen Xingwu: "Director Chen, you said that it is possible to participate in the observation of the operation. What is the situation?"

Chen Xingwu was stunned. He thought that Chen Yang would not ask again after that. Unexpectedly, Chen Yang would still ask. This made Chen Xingwu very embarrassed.

"Tomorrow's surgical demonstration will be divided into two parts. First, Professor Borg will demonstrate laparoscopic surgery, mainly to showcase the new equipment of the Orson Group. The difficulty of the surgery will not be too high..."

Chen Xingwu said: "Of course, it won't be too low. This surgery should be the most common routine surgery performed in major hospitals. This is also the reason why many people are willing to come and learn."

This is like doing a question. If it is too difficult, most people will not be able to get access to it, or cannot understand it, and can only watch it for fun. In fact, it is not very meaningful. On the contrary, it is easier to grasp the problem by letting the teacher explain it if the level of difficulty is high enough that everyone practices frequently.

“Other experts should be given opportunities later.”

Chen Xingwu smiled bitterly and said, "Although a few surgical spots will be opened for participating doctors to perform practical demonstrations, interested doctors can apply to the organizers, but with so many people, unless you have some special features, it will be very difficult to be selected."

Chen Xingwu said embarrassedly: "Actually, I just want to come here with you, Doctor Chen, to see the world. This kind of opportunity is rare for me."

Chen Xingwu seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, Doctor Chen, Director Zhong will be performing a liver transplant surgery tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Chen Yang asked.

"Correct."

Chen Xingwu said: "The liver transplant surgery has been scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. Director Zhong will perform a public surgery at that time. We can watch the live broadcast of the surgery at the venue."

Chen Yang's heart suddenly moved.

If it were other surgeries, such as laparoscopic minimally invasive surgeries, Chen Yang really wouldn't dare to participate, as Chen Yang currently has limited experience in this area.

But if it is a liver transplant, Chen Yang can participate. Liver transplantation is an open abdominal operation. Chen Yang only needs to participate in it. With his current level, it is definitely enough.

Chen Xingwu also meant this: "Doctor Chen, if you go to see Director Zhong, maybe you can get involved. With your level, it will definitely be no problem."

"Okay, I'll go ask Director Zhong this afternoon." Chen Yang nodded.

The afternoon meeting ended at half past five. After dinner, Chen Yang went to the door of Zhong Dongyang's room and rang the doorbell.

Soon, the door was opened and a young doctor in his thirties opened it.

"Hello, I'm looking for Director Zhong." Chen Yang said politely.

"Do you have something to talk to Director Zhong about?" The young doctor half-opened the door and blocked Chen Yang's way, not letting him in.

Chen Yang looked too young and didn't look like an expert attending the meeting. The young man was afraid that some people would disturb Zhong Dongyang.

There are many experts attending conferences of this scale. Some patients or their families come here to try their luck, or they learn in advance that a certain expert is coming and come here in person.

The profession of doctor is a relatively special one. People like Wen Xiuping, Song Luojun and others are national masters. It is naturally extremely difficult for ordinary people to see Wen Xiuping and others for treatment. But once they meet them in person, it is difficult for Wen Xiuping, Song Luojun and others to refuse.

It is actually the same with Zhong Dongyang. Generally, if patients want to find Zhong Dongyang to perform surgery, they can either go directly to Kyoto Hospital, but whether they can get an appointment depends on luck, or go through some channels, which also depends on luck.

But if I come to the hotel and meet Zhong Dongyang and beg him, it will be difficult for him to refuse. If I go too far and make a big fuss, it will not be good for the doctor.

Therefore, many experts will bring assistants with them when they go out. When encountering some emergencies, the assistants can step forward to stop them, and then the experts can make decisions based on the situation to avoid being put in trouble.

Yesterday, Zhong Dongyang had spoken to Chen Yang, but the young doctor went to get his luggage and did not see him, and he did not know Chen Yang either.

"I'm Chen Yang. I know Director Zhong and I'm also here to attend this meeting." Chen Yang didn't think much about it when he came, but now he had to explain it with a stiff upper lip.

"You wait."

The young doctor closed the door, and after a while he came back and opened it: "Doctor Chen, come in."

Chen Yang followed the young doctor into the room. Inside the room, Zhong Dongyang was chatting with a middle-aged doctor in his fifties.

In the morning, Chen Xingwu introduced several famous experts to Chen Yang. The one chatting with Zhong Dongyang was Tang Minxue from the Affiliated Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University.

"Xiao Chen is here."

Zhong Dongyang greeted Tang Minxue with a smile, and introduced him: "Chen Yang, currently working at the Affiliated Hospital of Shanzhou Medical University, grandson-in-law of Mr. Wen Xiuping, and he is here to attend this extrahepatic meeting."

"Xiao Chen, this is Director Tang Minxue from the Shanghai Jiaotong University Medical Affiliated Hospital." Zhong Dongyang introduced to Chen Yang again.

"Hello, Director Tang." Chen Yang hurriedly greeted Tang Minxue.

"Haha, it turns out he's Mr. Wen's grandson-in-law. He's really young and promising."

Tang Minxue smiled and said, "Why didn't Xiao Chen learn Chinese medicine?"

"Uh......"

Chen Yang was stunned, and said a little embarrassedly: "I am studying Chinese medicine."

Tang Minxue: “…”

Are you studying Chinese medicine and are here to attend the extrahepatic conference?

For a moment, Tang Minxue was stunned.
