Chapter 925: Chapter 803 Fontan Surgery Chapter 925: Chapter 803 Fontan Surgery In a room at the Sanbo Hotel, Xia Shu found his ntor and senior ntor, as everyone gathered ready to head back to Beijing.
“Xia Shu, we are planning to assign you to Sanbo Hospital for a few months to learn heart surgery under Professor Yang. Are you willing?” Professor Xin asked for Xia Shu’s opinion.
Xia Shu was a doctoral student ntored by Professor Xin. After graduation, it had been difficult for him to stay at Fuwai due to the limited positions available, so he had continued his post-doctoral research work at Fuwai, waiting for another opportunity to find work or possibly stay at Fuwai.
When his ntor asked if he was willing to co to Sanbo Hospital for further training, he certainly was not. He had just decided to work at Sanbo Hospital, having already inquired at the Human Resources Departnt and finding that he t the current hiring criteria.
As a Doctor of Heart Surgery from Anzhen and Fuwai, which are as prestigious as Xiehe and the First dical, he was in high demand, representing the highest level of technical expertise.
“Professor Xin, I want to work here!” Xia Shu directly expressed his thoughts.
“Work? You want to work here? Your postdoctoral research isn’t even finished, and we were preparing to send you to the United States as a visiting scholar,”
Director Xin was very surprised by Xia Shu’s thoughts.
“Can you explain your thoughts?” Academician Wang wasn’t as shocked; he was eager to hear what this unique student was thinking.
Xia Shu was honest, “I’ve read Professor Yang’s papers and now having seen his surgeries, I am certain he is the best heart surgeon in the world. I don’t need to go anywhere else; I just want to work here now and learn under Professor Yang for five or eight years, and then I will beco one of the top heart surgeons in the world.”
No one had seen such an honest student boldly declaring in front of his ntor and senior ntor that an outsider was the best heart surgeon in the world and that he could beco one of the world’s top heart surgeons.
Professor Xin was a bit anxious inside; this fellow’s words were sowhat offensive to the senior ntor.
Academician Wang showed no displeasure at all; in fact, he appreciated this student’s confidence, considering Yang Ping to be top in the field.
“Not even the United States?” Academician Wang deliberately asked.
Xia Shu shook his head, “Nowhere.”
“You don’t want to stay at Fuwai either?” Academician Wang asked again.
Xia Shu emphatically replied, “I won’t stay at Fuwai.”
“You need to think this through. Your chances of staying at Fuwai after returning from the United States are great. The cardiology departnt at Sanbo Hospital isn’t yet independent; it only has a Thoracic Surgery Departnt, which basically ans it’s starting from scratch,” Academician Wang said, half-closing his eyes.
Xia Shu calmly stated, “That’s only for now. In a few years, the cardiology departnt here will beco world-class. It’s precisely because their cardiology departnt is just starting out that there’s a place for to apply my skills. Fuwai has too many talents, but Sanbo is different; they lack cardiology talent. I am a doctoral graduate from the eight-year program at Xiehe, which ets their priority recruitnt criteria. I’ve made up my mind; I will stay and work here.”
“A blank canvas is best for painting,” Xia Shu added.
“You have a great vision, and I support your thoughts. Let’s proceed with your plan. Weicong, this is good news. Prepare for it. Old Cao, could you please help by recomnding him to Sanbo Hospital?”
Academician Wang said happily.
Xia Shu, by seniority, was already Academician Wang’s grand-student. It was rare for young people to have such insight, and having a student from his lineage learning cardiac techniques under Professor Yang was a good thing. Since they could not bring in Professor Yang, learning his techniques was the next best thing.
“I’d be glad to recomnd him; no problem at all. Xia Shu is a doctoral graduate from the eight-year program at Xiehe, and in our hospital, unless there are special circumstances, graduates from the eight-year program are given priority in recruitnt without any need for additional procedures,” Professor Cao was quite familiar with the recruitnt process at Sanbo.
Academician Wang thought for a mont and said, “Weicong, I have an idea. We have many doctoral students, including those from the eight-year program. Check if there are any willing to co to Sanbo Hospital. If there are more students like Xia Shu, send several here. It solves the employnt issue and allows young people to learn top-level skills. Even if they aren’t from the eight-year program, encourage them to participate in the recruitnt.”
“What do you an?” Professor Xin was a bit puzzled by Academician Wang’s sudden proposal.
Academician Wang took a deep breath and said, “Xia Shu has foresight. The cardiology departnt at Sanbo Hospital will definitely beco world-class. If he can shadow Professor Yang for five to eight years, he’ll quickly grow into one of the top heart surgeons in the world. If I weren’t old, perhaps I’d want to study here for a few years myself. The world is for the young, learn well and learn boldly.”
“I admit to having a personal interest; it would be better to have more students here. I hope my students can learn the best techniques and hope that this batch of people co from Fuwai,”
Now understanding Academician Wang’s intentions, Professor Xin said, “I’ll handle it. Xia Shu, when we get back, we’ll start working on this. Prepare your resu.”
“I’ve already submitted my resu,” Xia Shu was quick to act.
Professor Xin had not expected the student to be so eager, “Then, Professor Cao, please help with the recomndation.”
Professor Cao readily agreed, indicating it was no problem.
Academician Wang checked the ti and asked Professor Chen to book flights to return. Professor Cao said, “Professor Yang is still in surgery. He’s reached out to to invite you to dinner tonight and will take you to the airport tomorrow.”
“Why make it so complicated? Professor Yang is so busy. Let’s keep it simple and avoid any hassle. We’ll rest a bit, then head over to that bakery to grab sothing to eat and head back. Yue Liang, make sure you book the tickets.”
