Chapter 297 -0281 Spokesperson

The production crew began to settle into the Orthopedics department, aiming to capture some aspects of the Orthopedics team’s work, such as morning handovers, reading films, rounds, and more importantly, surgery.

This documentary will fully showcase how a young team dares to scale the heights of surgery. Yang Ping had read the script of the documentary. The first episode covers five-section replantation, the last episode covers paper publication, and in between, there is five-link reconstruction, Academic Conference surgery, and Fang Xiaoyun’s dural arteriovenous fistula.

Each case, from pre-operative decision making to surgical operation and post-operative recovery, will be shot panoramically, showing the difficulty, heart-stopping moments, and precariousness when doctors solve tough problems.

The high-quality papers are used to wrap up in the end, showcasing the team’s excellent professional ability and status in the academic world.

The last episode is labeled as “To Be Determined!”, meaning that the papers haven’t been published yet, so it seems that the documentary will continue filming until the papers are published.

Obviously, this manuscript has been modified by Director Han, and possibly written by him personally, as the professionalism has exceeded the knowledge of the media personnel.

...

After Yang Ping submits his paper, according to the normal process, it takes three months for paper review and some more time for the publication. However, Director Han still included the paper in the last episode of the documentary.

The paper is the best summary and proof of the team’s work. In fact, a solid academic reputation in a discipline can only be established with high-quality papers.

Otherwise, stories wouldn’t happen where a professor who raises rabbits becomes the head of Internal Medicine, and a professor who doesn’t perform surgery becomes the head of Surgery. The mixing of research and clinical work, is it good or bad?

The answer is obvious. Top hospitals need to solve medical puzzles and must conduct research, which is reasonable. However, for ordinary hospitals, forcing promotion and professional title requirements to have projects and papers is purely nonsense.

This makes papers and projects become a business and this business is growing. Anyway, there are often agents selling papers secretly dropping their business cards in various hospitals, looking for potential customers who need promotions.

Morning teaching, reading films, rounds, a day of surgery, the production crew has been following. When working, the camera pointed at oneself. At first, everyone felt awkward, but after getting used to it, it didn’t seem like a big deal anymore.

In the afternoon, Luo Jin, the soccer boy, came for a review. The young man was sunny and handsome, he showed white teeth when he laughed: “Doctor Yang, hello, sorry for the interruption.”

Yang Ping took him to the treatment room for an exam, he asked in detail about the post-operative rehabilitation process. The physiotherapy department of the First Affiliated Hospital helped him with the rehabilitation, as did team doctors. He himself bought several books about sports rehabilitation, aiming to understand the purpose of each rehabilitation exercise.

Yang Ping found that the muscle atrophy of the operated limb has significantly recovered. There was no significant difference in thigh and calf circumference on both sides. He further examined his knee. Forward, backward, lateral, and rotational are all very stable. Checked the ligament stability with KT2000 knee stability tester, the ligament is not slack, stability is very good. Currently, three months post-operation, at least he is very satisfied with the early stability.

“How is it? Doctor Yang, I feel good myself.” The boy worriedly asked.

Yang Ping let him get up from the examination bed: “No matter if it was a manual check or an instrumental check, the post-operative effect is very good, your knee is very stable, congratulations, at least for now, after three months, you can return to the field.”

“Yeah! I knew I could make it!” The boy excitedly clenched his fists, just like when he finally passed a game level.

“Rehabilitation must be carried out in an orderly and progressive manner, not too much or too little. The surgery used allogeneic tendons, which vascularize much slower than autogenous tendons. Therefore, you cannot suddenly increase the amount of training and must let it gradually adapt and remodel itself.”

Yang Ping is worried that he is anxious and eager to get ahead, which backfires and can easily lead to rupture of the transplanted tendon.

“I understand, I have enough patience, don’t know if I can take part in this year’s competition in June?” The boy is eager to participate in the match.

“Based on the current progress, you should be able to.” Yang Ping estimated the progress of his recovery for him.

The boy got off from the examination bed, and put on his shoes, the treatment room was already surrounded by people, Zhang Lin, Little Five, and Fatty, all of the standardized training students and interns were there.

“What, observing the knee examination?” Yang Ping didn’t call them at all, he was puzzled by why so many people were crowded around him, their enthusiasm for learning was commendable.

Fatty squeezed to the front and pulled out a white autumn T-shirt: “Brother Jin, please give me an autograph.”

“Brother Jin! Please sign this.”

“Brother Jin! Please sign this.”

“Brother Jin! Please sign this.”

Oh, I see. These guys.

Yang Ping only treated Luo Jin as his patient, completely forgetting that Luo Jin is a rising star in the Chinese Super League and is extremely popular. If it wasn’t for this injury, he reportedly could have gone to Europe to play soccer.

Unfortunately, during the match, he was advancing with the ball and about to score a goal when he was aggressively fouled. The tackle sent him flying, and he fell just as he was about to take a shot at the goal. Tempers flared among the players from both sides and they almost came to blows. Thankfully, the referee and coaches intervened in time, averting a brawl on the field.

Underneath Fatty’s white gown, his bare chubby chest could be seen. Yang Ping tugged at his gown: “Mate, this outfit of yours? Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for kids?”

“Bro, forgive me, Luo Jin came so suddenly, I had no time to prepare. I took off my shirt, I’ll put it back on as soon as I finish signing.” Fatty handed his shirt and a black marker to Luo Jin.

“Queue up, one by one, no rush, Luo Jin will definitely sign for all of you,” the team doctor helped maintain order.

Luo Jin readily agreed: “Register your names and numbers. Next time I come, I’ll give each of you a team jersey with my signature on it, how does that sound?”

Hearing that there would be signed jerseys, everyone cheered instantly. After getting his signature, Fatty promptly prepared to register the details: “Luo Jin, you better keep your word.”

Honest as ever, Luo Jin signed one by one. One guy, who hadn’t brought anything to sign, extended his palm. Realizing the signature would wash off, he quickly stripped off his gown and turned around: “Luo Jin, sign directly on my back!”

Left with no choice, Luo Jin signed his name on the man’s shirt.

Taking pictures was inevitable. First, they took a group photo, then they took turns to take individual photos with Luo Jin. Luo Jin didn’t have the air of a football star and showed no signs of impatience. He was very cooperative, which made everyone quite satisfied.

“Alright, that’s enough, hurry up anyone else who needs a signature or photo, he’s here for a medical checkup,” Yang Ping scolded the crowd.

Luo Jin laughed and said, “It’s fine, I appreciate the attention.”

“Luo Jin, fight on! We hope to see you back on the pitch soon. Without you, the games are boring. It’s not interesting to watch foreign imports who just play aggressively.”

“Luo Jin, I heard you’re considering joining a European Club?”

“Luo Jin, do you have a girlfriend?”

“Luo Jin, we love watching you play. You’re like lightning, a leopard… ”

The autograph signing session suddenly turned into a paparazzi interview. Luo Jin simply laughed. He was very disciplined: he didn’t have a girlfriend, he didn’t drink or smoke, his diet was strictly controlled by a nutritionist. Everything he did was to maintain his athletic condition.

If China had more players like Luo Jin, the state of Chinese football wouldn’t be so dire—

No more talking about that. Yang Ping felt very emotional. He doesn’t watch the Chinese Super League anymore. It’s not good for his heart to get too worked up, one needs to take care of their health.

“I just saw a TV crew shooting here, are they shooting a TV show?”

Luo Jin, who is only 20 years old, was curious about a TV show being filmed in the hospital.

Yang Ping explained, “The TV station is making a documentary about our department!”

“A documentary? How about I endorse your sports medicine for free? Truly free, no endorsement fee.”

This was a great surprise. Given Luo Jin’s popularity, a promotional video featuring him would surely be effective. Especially if his inspirational story was used as the main theme.

With this idea popping into his head, Yang Ping felt they’d found what had been missing. Sports medicine had many patients, but something was lacking—now it seemed they had found it.

“Really?”

“Yes, you can make a short film about my surgery. I’ve got some free time recently, and I won’t charge a fee.”

“We’re so grateful, we’re indeed looking for the protagonist for our sports medicine promotional video.”

“Well, give me that protagonist’s role. I’ll perform for free, I’d love to do a favor for Dr. Yang.”

Luo Jin understood that the success of his surgery played a pivotal role in his recovery. Despite his dedication to rehabilitation, all would have been in vain had the surgery not been successful.
