Chapter 1600: Veteran Bootlickers!
Ji Jianye, as the wealthiest academician in the medical circle.
It's naturally impossible for him to just be someone who seeks fame.
Jianye Pharmaceutical Group's liver protection medicine is indeed quite good, one of the best-selling domestic options.
However...
Differentiating between different matters is crucial.
Precisely because of this, Ji Jianye is even more unwilling to give up his academician status, as he deeply understands the impact it brings.
"Jianye, did you also read this book?" An elderly academician reluctantly placed the book he was holding on the table, sighing, "Truly a talented person, what a pity!"
"This person insisted for ten years, allowing our liver transplants to reach the world!"
Ji Jianye also acknowledged, "Yes, I've read this book."
"But... evidently, Chen Cang has directly helped Zhou Hongguang."
"The supplementation to biliary reconstruction and surgeries on the intrahepatic bile ducts and liver ducts have greatly improved the success rate of liver transplants, likewise reducing the complications significantly!"
"It's clear that this should be Chen Cang's contribution!"
Several academicians nodded in agreement.
Regarding Chen Cang, there really isn't much more to say.
In fact, to speak from the heart, everyone... doesn't really know how to evaluate Chen Cang.
Everyone clearly understands Chen Cang's current status.
It's quite possible that next year, Chen Cang will be nominated as an academician.
Moreover!
This academician nomination can't be stopped by anyone.
Once Chen Cang is nominated, he will surely advance, and the older generation must make way.
However!
Not everyone is fixated on these positions, and many are thinking about retiring.
This is ultimately a stage for the young; those with ability should stand here.
Instead of the old folks resting on their laurels.
Younger people should move forward.
The elderly should appropriately make way.
This is beneficial for the "metabolism" of talent!
At this time, an old gentleman suddenly spoke: "This year, we are all preparing to step down; Jianye, why don't you consider it!"
"Zhou Hongguang is excellent, with no lack of influence, having won two second-class scientific awards, and now as the director of the liver transplant center. With the release of this book, his international influence has also risen. If you ask me, it might be better to make way!"
Ji Jianye remained silent.
The elderly man beside him noticed and frowned, "The state is also urging us to retire soon. You… have suppressed others for quite a few years. If you don't give an opportunity this time, in the future… well, you decide for yourself!"
That's how the selection of academicians for the Academy of Engineering works!
In such a small field, there is only one academician.
Zhou Hongguang and Ji Jianye have come into direct competition.
Ji Jianye is also a character, shaking his head directly, "It's not that I'm holding on and won't let go. If Zhou Hongguang is doing well now, can operate and persist, I wouldn't say anything and make way directly!"
"But we need an academician with a future, not one who's retired!"
"Tan Feiyue doesn't have enough qualifications, lagging far behind me and Zhou Hongguang."
"Rather than having Zhou Hongguang come up to retire, I think I can still do one more term. Possibly, when Chen Cang comes up, I can voluntarily step down, doing him a favor."
Everyone is an old friend, and Ji Jianye is just being straightforward.
This group of people belongs to the old-school academicians.
Quite a few are retiring this year.
Hearing Ji Jianye say this, everyone became silent.
After all, it's his own business.
Besides, Ji Jianye has a large family and business connections, which makes it easy to navigate.
It's known that Ji Jianye has a nickname, Ji Baiyi.
Zhou Hongguang really doesn't have the ability to contend with Ji Jianye.
At least relying on this book alone is not enough!
If Zhou Hongguang were healthy now, then it might be different.
After all, Ji Jianye's point is valid here.
Whether it's about being selected or not, a reason is needed.
Zhou Hongguang has already met the requirements in various aspects. Currently, Ji Jianye holds firmly that Zhou Hongguang coming up would mean retirement, as he no longer holds the surgical capability!
...
...
Day by day, time passed by.
The academician election was fast approaching.
The competition reached the boiling point.
Xu Ziming has now become a celebrity, basically on a smooth, winning path!
Meanwhile, Zhou Hongguang finally fully recovered and was discharged from the hospital!
After Chen Cang performed a final detailed physical examination on Zhou Hongguang in the ward, he smiled and said, "Director Zhou, congratulations, you're once again capable of being a surgeon!"
Zhou Hongguang was overjoyed!
His wife and children came today.
Seeing their father standing there excitedly, everyone was delighted.
Zhou Hongguang sighed emotionally and took a long breath, "Professor Chen, I really thank you."
"Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today!"
"Standing here, I have nothing more to say, but to bow to you, thank you!"
Chen Cang waved his hand, "No need for formalities."
No one can understand the excitement of losing something and getting it back.
When hope is incredibly close, and then suddenly shattered, that feeling of fear engulfed Zhou Hongguang, and now... when everything passed like a nightmare, the ray of morning light was so mesmerizing!
All of this was bestowed upon him by Chen Cang!
A while later, Zhou Hongguang said to his wife and children, "Remember, Professor Chen is a benefactor to our Zhou family!"
After that, Zhou Hongguang led his family to bow and express their gratitude to Chen Cang.
In the past few days, Zhou Hongguang learned that after the release of the internal publication, it went viral!
Now his influence is increasing day by day.
Whether it's his healthy body or his burgeoning reputation, all these are inseparable from Chen Cang.
Therefore, this bow was worth every bit!
Zhou Hongguang's discharge meant, for Chen Cang, the successful completion of the first Parkinson's surgery case collection.
Wu Hui also hurriedly began gathering various indicators.
Meanwhile, the pace of literature searching was accelerated.
On Chen Cang's end, he was not idle either.
He was thinking about how to refine the surgery.
After all, this operation utilizing traditional ventriculography plus stereotactic techniques was somewhat challenging.
The risk was too high!
Even Chen Cang himself wasn't very confident.
How to reduce risks, increase operational space, minimize uncontrollable factors…
Etc.!
Such is often needed to perfect a surgery.
At this moment.
Hu Chuanbang and Zhao Furun came knocking.
Inside the office, the two of them stood there awkwardly, not speaking, just smiling awkwardly!
Chen Cang also remained silent, simply reading, until after a long pause, the two finally began to speak.
"Professor Chen… haha, congratulations! The Parkinson's surgery could be completed!" Hu Chuanbang remarked, "It's the first time I've heard of such great results from a surgical treatment for Parkinson's!"
Zhao Furun nodded and smiled, "Indeed, Parkinson's is a global challenge. Should it be successful, Professor Chen, both the Lasko Medical Award and the Nobel Prize in Medicine could be hoped for!"
As seasoned sycophants, they were quite aware!
