When the Doctor Uses A Hack-Chapter 2019 - 2025: The Grand Finale!

"What’s Professor Chen doing?"

"No longer participating in the awards?"

"Yeah... what happened?"

"Was he subjected to unfair practices? Outrageous!"

"We demand justice! Transparency!"

"We can’t let the hero be wronged!"

...

Soon!

With the release of this news, online public opinion exploded.

Many people started questioning why such a thing happened.

At this time, the Health Commission was helpless.

Director Deng had just taken on the position, only to face such an issue, to be honest, it was a bit frustrating.

Moreover, to put it bluntly, in today’s world... who can impose unfair practices on Chen Cang?

Who dares to tarnish Chen Cang’s name?

You can count them on one hand in China!

When a person’s influence is so great, they’ve already transcended their realm.

Moreover!

Now, the Dongyang Province Medical Consortium is spreading across the country!

And as the core, who can shake Chen Cang’s position!

Even the leaders of various provinces have to consider Chen Cang’s stance, is this an exaggeration? No, not at all!

Because Chen Cang’s influence is immeasurable.

Setting aside this intangible influence.

Just talking about the industry!

Worldwide, there are over one hundred thousand research institutes named after the Chen Cang Institute!

Involving millions of people!

Similarly!

Chen Cang has established different branches in Mexico, Brazil, South Africa... and more than a dozen other countries, protected by local government forces.

Domestically!

Anxu Pharmaceuticals leapt into prominence, becoming a world-leading pharmaceutical company.

After all, the introduction of antibiotic alternatives, painkillers, AIDS vaccines, and various new drugs had an enormous impact on the market!

Forbes and other ranking agencies all sought out Chen Cang, promising not to include him in their calculations, thus sparing him the trouble of being labeled the richest man!

After all, as a top medical scientist, pharmacist, philanthropist... and more, Chen Cang doesn’t belong in a wealth ranking!

However, every country and financial group in the world knows!

There is a giant in this world that they simply cannot provoke now!

Who knows how many lives Chen Cang holds in his hands!

Buffett, the Rockefeller family, the Rothschild family... and other giants all approached Chen Cang, hoping to establish friendships with him!

Money, to a certain extent, can be exchanged for invisible energy and status, even power!

However!

It can never be exchanged for life!

At this moment, if there’s one person in the world who holds the key to life’s secrets, it’s possibly only Chen Cang!

Faced with the olive branches offered by these enormous families.

Chen Cang did not refuse.

But he also did not promise.

At this time, he was no longer the young, naive boy he once was.

The development of medicine, and even technology, doesn’t actually bring happiness to humanity, nor does it bring peace to the world!

Quite the opposite!

If we lose basic reverence, behind human nature lies not paradise, but an abyss!

Thus, Chen Cang chose the best approach, hoping to return the world to its proper course. He wished to promote the development of medicine but not to let science entirely surpass moral and legal integrity.

In the past, Chen Cang heard a saying!

The end of science is philosophy, metaphysics, theology... everyone has something to say about it.

Chen Cang has never seen the end of science, nor can he judge the accuracy of this statement.

But now he feels that what the end of science is doesn’t matter. What matters is, philosophy should walk alongside science.

The development of science cannot be separated from the progress of thought, morality, law, and humanity... and so on!

When scientific development advances too quickly, it doesn’t bring the benefits of science, but rather the disasters of science!

Just like the appearance of the atomic bomb!

No one can clearly judge its right or wrong!

One might say that the atomic bomb brought humanity more contemplation and caution.

Similarly, Chen Cang truly doesn’t want to see the medical empire he built with his own hands, even the medical world, committing mistakes because of himself!

Medicine can save humanity!

But it can also make people forget many things!

Initially, Chen Cang had the potential to perform more head transplant surgeries.

But he didn’t!

He didn’t even continue to care for the brother who had undergone the head transplant.

Because he didn’t dare to.

Because in this world, many people are above morality, law, and order.

The only thing they don’t have is immortality!

Chen Cang didn’t dare to do it!

So he straightforwardly declared the uniqueness and unrepeatability of the surgery.

Even if there were another one, Chen Cang would deliberately fail.

Human nature can never withstand the test.

Because humans are full of variables.

This is both an advantage and a flaw!

Chen Cang doesn’t want to gamble.

He only hopes to make some rightful contributions to humanity.

So, he chose to retire!

Moreover, "Emergency Medicine" is different, requiring Chen Cang to carefully refine it, needing serious contemplation to write this book.

He needs to settle himself.

And also hopes to settle the negative impacts of the rapid advancements in medicine.

These things all require time to digest.

If there’s only one thing in the world that’s both merciless and compassionate, it’s time!

However, no matter what, Chen Cang’s sudden announcement left the world somewhat stunned.

In the prime of his career!

And at the prime age of his life!

Why the sudden withdrawal?

This news caught many people off guard.

At this moment, Director Deng of the National Health Commission had no choice but to ask Chen Cang to come out for a press conference-like event.

Otherwise, he really couldn’t get past this hurdle!

It’s not just the public’s protests!

Even the leaders above are asking him why!

Deng Gaoyuan felt very wronged about this.

He really didn’t dare!

Just look at how many people in the National Health Commission are Chen Cang’s people now?

How many people in the entire medical system are Chen Cang’s students!

In the two academies, how many academicians have to call Dr. Chen Cang teacher!

What qualifications does Deng Gaoyuan have to set rules for Chen Cang?

However, at this time, Chen Cang also realized this matter.

The press conference was originally just a small meeting.

But it topped countless media outlets and trending searches.

"Hello, everyone, my name is Chen Cang. The reason I am stepping back is to give more opportunities to younger people and also to give myself a chance to reflect."

"For an extended period, I might not attend any conferences or competitions... I hope to spend the upcoming days seriously doing research, earnestly summarizing some of my experiences, and turning them into a book!"

"Thank you all!"

Chen Cang’s words were brief, but they left many unsettled for a long time.

In the days that followed.

Chen Cang really seemed to have vanished into thin air.

He and Qin Yue moved to a quiet and unfamiliar city.

They began the simplest, most unpretentious way of life.

Qin Yue took care of the family’s daily needs.

Chen Cang read books and wrote books every day.

Little Chen Yang also gradually grew and matured.

Life is not just about brilliance.

It also requires finding bits of genuine emotion and touch in the mundane.

This was something Qin Yue and Chen Cang had seriously considered.

They also wanted to give Chen Yang a complete family and life.

Actually, regarding retirement, Chen Cang had thought about it for a long time.

He instead felt that this was the best choice.

As for safety issues... actually, there was no need for Chen Cang to worry.

This life was peaceful and comfortable.

Daily bickering with Qin Yue, occasionally letting off steam by teasing the kids.

However, it also had its benefits.

For instance, during this period, Qin Yue gave birth to twins for Chen Cang again!

When the children were young, the parents came over frequently to help.

As time went on, Qin Yue could manage on her own.

Apart from writing books, Chen Cang occasionally went to some impoverished areas to provide free medical consultations.

It has to be said...

These years, the changes have been rapid indeed.

And even though Chen Cang wasn’t in the hospital, he could still grasp various matters accurately.

Moreover, with the system in hand, Chen Cang could quickly formulate the latest guidelines.

Just like that, the years passed by year after year...

Until those familiar old leaders slowly grew old as well...

Chen Cang attended some farewell ceremonies for the old leaders.

Time flies.

Those old predecessors, teachers, and old professors were slowly leaving this world.

Chen Cang bid them farewell.

But!

They were very happy.

Seeing the country’s medical field flourishing so much, they were genuinely happy.

...

The Spring Festival of 2032.

Chen Cang was forty years old.

A lot happened this year.

Deng Ming became the president of the World Emergency Surgery Association.

He finally got married and had children.

Chen Cang attended his wedding, and he didn’t look for the bride but held onto Chen Cang, crying his eyes out, crying for a long time, calling out, "Teacher, where did you go..."

Chen Cang patted his shoulder and said, "You’re in your forties, crying for me at your wedding, people will laugh at you!"

Deng Ming shook his head, tears streaming as he laughed.

Wang Yong became the director of the General Surgery department, taking over from Zhang Youfu.

Zhang Youfu came.

But he was still the same person who loved posting about good food and showing off his love on social media the most.

During the New Year, Chen Cang visited him with some good food.

Sister-in-law Yang Tong cooked the meal herself. Chen Cang ate it, and it tasted just the same as it did over a decade ago, unchanged.

But... Zhang Youfu had aged.

He was getting old too. When leaving, he gave out three packets of New Year money for the kids.

Then he went to have a drink with Li Baoshan.

Li Baoshan drank too much.

He laughed and said that if it weren’t for Chen Cang, he would have died with regrets.

He also said, knowing this, he would never have let Qin Xiaoyuan and the others drink.

...

Summer of 2037.

Chen Cang was forty-five.

Little Chen Yang went to middle school and became a grade control freak, wasting not even 1 point.

Qin Yue finally learned to knit sweaters for the kids.

But Chen Yang never wore them, complaining about the many knots in the yarn inside.

Because of this, on Chen Yang’s birthday, Qin Yue hit Chen Cang, leaving him speechless. He hit Chen Yang to vent his frustration, while the younger siblings stood there laughing.

Chen Yang, helpless, helped his mother with knitting.

And that year, Old General Qin passed away.

Chen Cang didn’t go, but sent a eulogy.

Over the years, Chen Cang attended more funerals than weddings.

He naturally had many friends from different generations.

Therefore, such occasions were unavoidable.

Perhaps as people age past forty, they start to become more cautious and reflective.

This year.

When Chen Cang went to a place called Xiao Ao Village to provide medical aid, he met a woman who suddenly burst into laughter upon seeing him.

Chen Cang saw the woman wearing a casual, smart outfit with a white coat over it.

Chen Cang couldn’t help but laugh: "Teacher, the clothes are too small. If you keep laughing, they’re going to burst!"

Yet, tears glistened in Meng Xi’s eyes as she continued to laugh.

After they exchanged a glance, they hugged for a moment.

"Long time no see!"

"Are you married?"

"Get lost!"

"Haha... Don’t be so rude!"

"I’m not married, but I’ve adopted a child."

"Oh? Where is the child? What’s the name?"

"I’ve adopted over a hundred!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"..."

That day, Chen Cang and Meng Xi talked for a long time.

Meng Xi had resigned from the hospital long ago; Meng Wanrong left her a large inheritance, enough for a luxurious life, but over the years she dedicated herself to teaching and medical aid, starting to support those children.

Although he remained unmarried for life, he felt fulfilled.

This year, Chen Bingsheng’s child got married, and Chen Cang attended the wedding.

Old Ma was also present and insisted on matchmaking his second child with Chen Cang’s daughter.

Chen Cang looked at Ma Erhan and declined, leaving Old Ma furious.

He accused Chen Cang of bullying, and Chen Cang nodded in agreement, afterwards, Old Ma was silent for quite some time... and sold his courtyard home in the capital.

This year, Chen Luo won his first Oscar for Best Actor, and his long-term love finally culminated in marriage.

However...

The bride turned out to be Dou Xin.

Chen Cang vaguely remembered that girl whose face was half scarred in the sunlight.

She had now become the most popular diva in the entertainment industry.

Time flies; what remains unchanged, what’s been changed, all must transform.

Chen Cang congratulated the couple on their marriage.

...

...

This year, Chen Cang turned fifty.

"Emergency Medicine" was finally completed!

After years of effort, Chen Cang diligently pondered and completed "Emergency Medicine."

This consisted of fifteen volumes.

Each disease was written in detail with treatment methods and techniques.

Every possibility was taken into account by Chen Cang.

When the book was released, it caused quite a sensation!

Because Chen Cang had been missing from the scene for a long time.

The release of this book made many wonder if it might be outdated.

Who spends over a decade writing a book!

Indeed!

Nowadays, experts are more interested in garnering honors, taking on titles of chief and editor-in-chief, writing books more frequently than eating.

However, Chen Cang genuinely recorded a lifetime of insights and reflections in this book.

This was a book that could serve both as a reference and a guide!

Many were shocked upon seeing it!

Because it was practically an encyclopedia of emergency medicine!

At this moment!

The world was once again astounded by Chen Cang!

Yet, Chen Cang did not reappear.

This time, he seemed to have truly disappeared...

...

...

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve successfully published "Emergency Medicine," achieving perfect completion, and earned the ultimate reward: Family Legacy System!]

Chen Cang rolled his eyes.

He glanced at Chen Yang, who had just been accepted into college and looked bored.

Chen Cang suddenly thought, this guy probably doesn’t need it.

[Family Legacy System: Activates automatically when your family is in decline, and descendants face a crisis, making it impossible to continue the lineage!]

Chen Cang sighed.

So that’s it?

He thought it would grant immortality!

But...

If I really were immortal, would I be happy?

Honestly, with the secret of this system, it’s better to keep it hidden.

Thinking of this, Chen Cang smiled indifferently.

...

...

This year!

Chen Cang had already been gone for so long!

Many had almost forgotten Chen Cang, the young man who once saved the world.

The great legend who led medicine into a new era!

He now only existed in history books or legendary tales.

Little was mentioned of him in day-to-day life.

This year!

On December 31st.

The WHO African regional office learned from the Pretoria Health Commission’s website about reports of "viral pneumonia" cases in South Africa.

The African office reported the situation to the WHO Western Pacific Regional Office’s International Health Regulations contact point and provided translations of the Pretoria Health Commission’s report on these cases.

The WHO’s Epidemic Intelligence Open Source (EIOS) platform also received media reports from ProMED (a project of the International Society of Infectious Diseases) on the same cluster of "unknown cause pneumonia" cases in South Africa.

Health authorities from around the world contacted the WHO, hoping for more information.

January 1, the following year.

The WHO requested that the South African authorities provide information regarding the reported cluster of atypical pneumonia cases in Pretoria.

The WHO activated the Incident Management Support Team (IMST) under the emergency response framework.

This framework is used to coordinate activities and responses to public health emergencies across the three levels of the WHO (headquarters, regional, national).

Immediately after...

January 2, the situation was released.

January 9, the World Health Organization held multiple teleconferences with global expert networks.

January 31, the WHO Director for the Africa Region issued a guidance document to all countries in the region, emphasizing the importance of preparedness and early case detection.

February 4, the outbreak exploded in Pretoria!

February 10, South Africa went into lockdown!

The world entered a severe phase of epidemic prevention and control.

February 9!

Many countries in Africa successively saw a sharp increase in infectious diseases!

By the end of February!

A certain great country condemned South Africa’s actions...

Early March!

A certain great country went into lockdown!

The epidemic entered a new stage!

The unknown pneumonia continued to spread, continued to expand!

April!

Europe began to experience the epidemic.

...

May!

As the epidemic was about to reach the nation’s borders.

People around the world were in panic!

All the research organizations, virus institutes, all the scientific institutions were unable to solve this problem!

Just as people globally began to struggle in despair.

When all they knew was to pray, at a loss for what to do.

"Please, Professor Chen, step forward!"

The central government issued an emergency order and found Chen Cang.

And at this moment!

An elderly man, tasked with a crucial mission at a high age, hunched over, moved against the wind!

At this moment!

Those old folks suddenly became emotional, tears shimmering in their eyes: "It’s him! It’s him!"

"Professor Chen is here! We are surely saved now!"

At that time, many young people didn’t even know who Chen Cang was!

But those old folks began to tell Chen Cang’s story!

That year...

That year...

Those years...

...

At such a moment!

When everyone was filled with fear towards the epidemic zone!

Chen Cang gathered his old comrades.

"Deng Ming!"

"Present!"

"Wang Yong!"

"Wang Yong present!"

"Luo Zhou!"

"Luo Zhou present!"

"Chen Yang!"

"Chen Yang present!"

"Who else?"

"Present!"

"Present!"

"Present!"

...

In our grand country!

How can we say there are no doctors!

Together with you as comrades!

White robes as armor!

Advancing against the tide!

This group of old-timers once again donned their battle armor, leading the young soldiers, embarking on this path...

This journey!

We will surely triumph!!!

...

(The end of the series)

...

...

December 31, 2020.

We have walked through the toughest roads.

Met the most lovable people.

This book was written in 2020, witnessing our greatest doctors and warriors during the epidemic.

I!

In our grand country, how can we say there are no doctors?

Together as comrades, protecting our rivers and lands!

This is a vocational book, also a joyous vocational book, accompanying everyone through the toughest days, also the most memorable ones.

Thank you all!

Thank you!

For allowing me to write a story I wanted to.

Gentlemen, let’s meet again if fate allows!

(As I wrote the last few words, these old hands felt... already powerless, and the heart was empty. Reflecting on completing the book someday.)

By the way, those interested can take a look at the Easter egg Chapter of 2000-2024, which contains relevant precautions regarding the new *vaccine.
