Surgery Godfather-Chapter 370 - 0351: Ready to Go

Chapter 370: Chapter 0351: Ready to Go

In the large conference room of the Orthopedics Center at Nandu Affiliated Hospital One, doctors were seated solemnly in tidy white gowns.

This was not a case discussion, but rather the team debut for the Golden Knife Award competition.

Affiliated One sent five teams to compete, all led by young Associate Senior Doctors under the age of 35. Only Nandu Affiliated One could muster so many young Associate Senior Doctors.

The most dazzling among them were Su Nanchen and Lin Hao, who, owing to their excellent educational backgrounds and strict specialist training routes, could hold their own despite their young ages.

They both graduated from the eight-year program at Xiehe, which represented the highest level of medical education in China, and was more difficult for high school students to be admitted into than even Tsinghua or Peking University.

Thus, to be admitted into Xiehe’s eight-year program from the South meant that they were academic overachievers. Su Nanchen gained admission with his status as the top science student in Nandu Province, while Lin Hao, who was in the same year as Su Nanchen, was also admitted with one of the top provincial scores.

The other competing chief surgeons, Chen Ge, was a bachelor, master, and doctorate graduate from Nandu Medical University; Su Fengyu graduated from the eight-year program at Beijing Medical University; Cao Qian graduated from the eight-year program at Huaxi Medical University.

For Professor Su’s recruitment of the younger generation, the eight-year program has become the standard. To maintain team vitality and prevent inbreeding, Professor Su did not solely favor graduates from Nandu Medical University, instead retaining many positions for other top medical institutions such as Xiehe, Huaxi, and Beijing Medical University.

These years under his advocated 3+5 system, the new generation quickly grew. This 3+5 system was by no means a formality – with 3 years of surgical rotation and 5 years of specialist training, the training was extremely rigorous.

The training plan specified when they could be the chief surgeon in what surgeries, how many cases they had to lead, and required at least one year of further study at world-leading orthopedic centers.

With this formidable team, they represented the highest level in South China, competing against Beijing, Shanghai and the Western region for the Golden Knife Award.

Professor Su had not arrived yet; Professor Zou, the deputy director and actual manager of the Orthopedics Center, was leading the team in waiting for him.

As Dean and also focusing on research, Professor Su was not very much involved in clinical practice now. He was currently very busy, participating in the election for academicians. With his academic achievements, unless there were unforeseen circumstances, becoming a new academician should not be a problem.

Su Nanchen, Lin Hao, Chen Ge, Su Fengyu, and Cao Qian all sat together.

Lin Hao and Chen Ge sat next to each other. Lin Hao took part in the competition for a bit of a personal reason – he wanted to prove his own strength.

At that banquet, he was deeply affected. The girl he had been pursuing for many years had shown interest in Yang Ping, which was intolerable for any man.

Defeating Yang Ping and proving his own strength had become his necessary choice.

He had carefully analyzed Yang Ping and found that while he had high talent in microsurgery and arthroscopy, he had serious shortcomings in his overall skills.

Compared to Nandu Affiliated One, Sanbo Hospital was insignificant. Yang Ping, who had grown on the platform of Sanbo Hospital, had at most only these two specialized strengths.

He himself had spent three years at a special orthopedic hospital in New York, the world’s number one ranked orthopedic hospital, learning from several masters in trauma orthopedics, sports medicine, joint replacement, spine surgery and orthopedic oncology.

Then he had worked at Affiliated One for many years, gaining a wealth of surgical experience, which Yang Ping could not have obtained at Sanbo. Yang Ping was just a specialist student and couldn’t compete with him comprehensively. Just the upper cervical spine and bone tumor surgeries alone could firmly suppress him.

“If it were a knockout competition, we could have knocked that little guy out of the southern competition zone as soon as we met him. It’s a pity that it’s now a points competition. As long as he makes it into the top three, he still has a chance to reach the national competition. I heard that Wen Rentao from Mo Sixth is quite powerful and is a hot favorite to win this time.” Chen Ge discussed with Lin Hao, while Su Nanchen was chatting with the other two.

“My Xiehe classmates mentioned Wen Rentao and they all seemed a bit less confident. This time, Wen Rentao clearly intends to help Shanghai reclaim the Golden Knife Award. During his master’s degree, Professor Hong Zhigang started teaching him surgeries personally. This guy is highly talented and Professor Hong devoted a lot of effort to him. He has studied at several of the world’s top orthopedic centers, in the United States, Europe, and Japan. His study content touched on all subspecialties of orthopedics. Additionally, each study period was generally one year long and he was learning from master-level professors.” Lin Hao had many classmates who stayed to work at Xiehe and every time they discussed the Golden Knife Award, the person they feared most was Wen Rentao.

A person who even the doctors at Xiehe’s main hospital feared, was certainly extraordinarily powerful.

When Yang Ping’s five-section replantation was live-streamed online, without mentioning the hospital and the chief surgeon, many doctors guessed that Wen Rentao was the chief surgeon as the Trauma Orthopedics Online Conference that year was hosted by Mo Sixth.

Later, Sanbo Hospital voluntarily released the news, only then everyone knew that the surgery was not led by Wen Rentao, but was a case of Sanbo Hospital.

You can see that when people see such a high-level microscopic operation, the first person they think of is Wen Rentao. Only he has this kind of ability.

Wen Rentao is the representative figure of the young generation in the orthopedic field of Shanghai, followed by Yue Zhengming from Huashan Hospital. Compared with the two, whether in terms of academic achievements or surgical operations, Yue Zhengming is slightly inferior.

All of these doctors are elites in the medical field. Making it past entrance exams into these key universities, then successively cutting through their master and doctorate degrees, and finally entering key hospitals for key training, these achievements are all thanks to a combination of wisdom and sweat.

“That’s why you must also work hard, strive for our hospital to secure the top three places. This way there will be no room for others.” Lin Hao was still confident about his own hospital’s teams, sweeping the South China zone wouldn’t be too stressful.
