Chapter 366: Chapter 0347 Sa Frequency
Ten cups of tea, cigars from Cuba.
Bribe? It’s a blatant bribe!
Teacher Zhang is hardly soone who can be bought. Who are you trying to embarrass?
Zhang Lin sneered inwardly. He had fought hard to secure his position in the team. Would he destroy his future for such a trifle?
If one lacks such insights, how could they serve as the secretary of education for the Departnt of Orthopedics?
Initially, he thought this Arican was much more spirited than the Japanese man, but now it seems they’re much of the sa sort.
“Doctor Robert, you should have a righteous heart. If you want to join, learn from Takahashi. et the required criteria, and the opportunity will arise. Unfair practices aren’t going to work here,” said Zhang Lin, patting Robert’s sturdy shoulder before turning to leave.
Throughout his life, Teacher Zhang had never been this noble. It felt good.
Robert was left alone in a corner, staring blankly. Director Gao was heading his way.
Director Gao had just finished watching a surgery and was looking to greet Robert. He had learned under him before, and now that Robert was here, it was only polite to greet him warmly.
He had seen him and Zhang Lin conspiring in a corner, and it didn’t seem proper to intrude. He waited from a distance.
Upon seeing Zhang Lin leave, Old Gao approached and greeted him in English, “Doctor Robert, it’s indeed an honor to et you here. I’m Gao Yuan. I studied sports dicine at the New York Special Surgery Hospital under Dr. George. Do you rember ?”
Robert was taken aback for a mont, then opened his arms for a warm Arican-style hug: “Gao? How could I forget! I’ve missed you, why didn’t you keep in touch? Are you working at this hospital now?”
Who is Gao Yuan? There are countless visiting doctors worldwide every year, how could Robert rember each one.
However, at this ti and place, encountering a Chinese person who could possibly help him out was a good thing, even if he had to pretend to know him.
Robert’s enthusiasm was overwhelming. Old Gao was left breathless from the hug and slapped on the back before being released.
“I’m currently serving as the director of the sports dicine center here.” Director Gao stated confidently.
Robert’s interest was imdiately piqued: “Gao, are you familiar with Doctor Yang Ping? I see you’ve also been studying his surgery.”
“Of course, I am. We are colleagues at work, but technically, I learn a lot from his guidance,” boasted Old Gao.
He felt no sha in admitting to being ntored by Yang Ping, but rather felt proud.
In Gao’s understanding, Yang Ping, a gifted individual, would be world-renowned sooner or later, and it would be beneficial to share his “school of thought.”
However, even if he maintained this connection, Yang Ping might not acknowledge it. Currently, the only recognized trainee of Yang Ping was Song Zimo, and stuttering Xu Zhiliang seed to be trending in that direction.
“Impressive stuff, Gao. I’ve got sothing to discuss with you. Do you think you could help?” Robert, quick on his feet, felt he had found a reliable individual who could aid him.
“What is it? Just tell .” Old Gao was generous; if he could help, he would. In a way, Robert was even his ntor.
“Doctor Yang’s surgical skill needs no praise. My reason for being here is to learn from his surgery. The ti I have is just one week, three days of which have already passed. I’m eager to work closely with Dr. Yang in the operating room. Could you help? Na your conditions. How about a mbership in the North Arican Arthroscopy and Sports dicine Society? I can recomnd you at any ti.”
Indeed, this was appealing. Being part of that society had prestige, and locals would buy into it, essentially gilding your reputation.
If visiting the New York Special Surgery Hospital as a scholar was gilding one’s credentials, then becoming a mber of the North Arican Arthroscopy and Sports dicine Society would be equivalent to encrusting diamonds.
Director Gao was quite familiar with the integrated orthopedic surgery departnt. In any other hospital, Robert’s situation would make him a big shot.
He would undoubtedly be assisted by the departnt director, entertained by the hospital director, and welcod with banners for days. How could they possibly have issues with letting him operate?
However, sadly, the integrated orthopedic surgery departnt at Sanbo was a bit different. What with having Yang Ping pushing boundaries, even the brightest individuals would see their glow fade upon arrival.
Was Takahashi an influential figure? He may have a grand reputation in the trauma surgery world, but he was still relegated to making tea, thanks to Yang Ping’s self-assud superiority. As for Robert, he’d probably end up transferring patients in the ward.
“I assu you would have extensive experience in shoulder and knee ligant reconstruction and opportunities to speak at the large North Arican sports dicine conferences?”
Seeing Director Gao not imdiately responding, Robert further sweetened the deal.
Director Gao stroked his chin, finding the situation sowhat tricky. If he were to seek Yang Ping’s approval, he would most likely end up dealing with Zhang Lin.
Zhang Lin, despite having worked with Yang Ping for quite so ti, hadn’t made much progress in his skills, even though his attitude suggested otherwise. He felt he could compete with even the President of the United States, and couldn’t care less for the likes of Robert. This could prove to be awkward.
“Visiting Professor at the Sports dicine Departnt of New York Special Surgery Hospital?”
The stakes were raised again, and Robert gritted his teeth.
The conditions were quite appealing to Director Gao. If he could indeed secure these titles, his reputation would absolutely skyrocket.
“Alright, Doctor Robert, I’ll try to work it out. We can’t get you on the table directly here, but I’ll try to get you in with , following Doctor Yang’s surgical procedures at my place. You did say your previous conditions are valid, correct?”
Old Gao wasn’t sure how reliable Robert’s word was – would he go back on his promises once they have served their purpose? Either way, even if Robert didn’t keep his promises, there was no loss to Gao.
“Deal!”
Robert high-fived with Director Gao, his intelligence had solved his problem.
The next surgery must have started. Robert and Director Gao slipped into the operating room again.
Yang Ping was explaining the essentials of the surgery to Fujiwara Miyuki.
In fact, since Fujiwara Miyuki is a specialist in sports dicine and had a good command of Chinese, Yang Ping was willing to explain it to her.
On the other hand, Robert didn’t know Chinese. Even though Yang Ping’s English wasn’t bad, he was not particularly keen to speak in English.
As expected, this Japanese beauty has a special relationship with Doctor Yang; she gets special treatnt regularly.
“Can I feel the rough surface of the ligant attachnt area you ntioned on the table using a probe?” Miss Fujiwara also strives for technical excellence.
“In the next surgery, you follow up to the table, and I’ll let you feel how easy it is to find the anatomical center of the ligant footprint just by the difference in the bone surface.” He had taught Takahashi in the last surgery, this ti he would specially teach Miyuki.
In the three months of further studies, Yang Ping wanted them to learn the anticipated techniques.
Unlike Robert who had a week of observational learning, which had no prior expectations, and was purely of an observational nature.
She was personally taught by Doctor Yang, while he couldn’t cross the yellow line from the podium.
Now it was not ti to consider what you lacked, but what you could do with what you have.
There were four days left; he had to find a way to get on the operating table and learn from Doctor Yang’s personal experience.
Telling Doctor Yang straight up about his wish was hardly hopeful. In a specialty surgical hospital in New York, if a short-term observer asked to get up on the table, Robert wouldn’t bother to answer, but would hand it over to the teaching secretary to resolve it according to the rules.
Clinical dical practice involves safety, ethics, etc., and requires a strict system.
In the United States, a consulting doctor, along with a Chinese refresher doctor, would ask the patient before the check-up, “This is my refresher doctor from China, do you mind him watching from the side?”
If the patient refuses, the refresher doctor would be asked to leave the consultation room or the ward. If the patient agrees, the refresher doctor could watch from the side.
Robert also considered using his status in the field of sports dicine to get so special treatnt, but it seed impossible. This young doctor gave him a bland treatnt without seeing him as a leading figure in sports dicine.
Being a leading figure can only be seen in the eyes of others. In the eyes of this young doctor, Robert is nothing.
“Takahashi had ntioned in Yu Shuilian’s pre-op discussion that reconstructive surgery is a simulation of function, a principle that also applies to this type of surgery. Still, it’s not a superposition of multiple ligant function simulations, but a simulation of the complex functions constructed by several ligants. Therefore, we must discard the thinking of single ligant reconstruction and treat balance issues from the perspective of the complex,” said Yang Ping, his words as precious as gold.
Old Gao’s little notebook was writing non-stop; the entire notebook was almost filled, ready to be replaced with a new one.
Takahashi and Miyuki were also next to him, taking notes on their portable tablets.
Zhang Lin and Little Five have already completed the pre-surgery preparation for the next patient, and it was Song Zimo’s turn to perform a knee arthroscopy. After the examination, Yang Ping would be up for surgery, and he would take Miyuki up to the theatre to scrub in.
Outside the yellow line, Robert was very envious, his toes kept moving forward, getting as close as possible without crossing the yellow line.
This ti, he didn’t dare to squeeze Old Gao, and he kindly invited Old Gao to stand in the best position with him.
“Doctor Robert, we have a surgery over there tomorrow. We’ve invited Doctor Yang to be the Chief Surgeon. Would you be interested in coming to observe?”
When Director Gao put this news out there, Robert was thrilled with excitent, he voluntarily moved aside, leaving the best place to Old Gao alone.
After several surgeries and a break for lunch, Robert was still following Yang Ping.
Yang Ping wanted to lie down for a while in the resting room. Robert also followed him in there, and the two of them sat side by side on the bench.
He wanted to chat with Yang Ping to get closer, but he couldn’t find a common topic for a while.
Suddenly, Robert had an idea, n full of love! Nothing could be a better common topic.
He couldn’t do it in Chinese, so he had to resort to English.
“You have good taste; she’s aweso! She is an Eastern Scarlett Johansson. She has Scarlett’s peak body, beautiful face, charming eyes, her whole body exudes sexiness, which could make your hormones explode, and I dare to assure you, she’s only interested in you—”
Yang Ping looked at the Arican guy and then around him, they were the only ones in the rest room, he was not talking on the phone, was he talking to himself about won?
This guy was quite interesting, suddenly talking about won, was this the unrestrained Arican humor?
