"Department director, department director …" Department Director Hou Fu called out softly, as if he was talking to a twenty-two-year-old mistress.
Department Director Liang Xue immediately sat up and looked at the familiar light blue color around him in a daze. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "I was scared to death. I dreamed that a twenty-two-year-old young man showed off his pants so much that I couldn't even find my pants …"
As he spoke, his voice became softer.
Department Director Hou Fu lowered his head and pretended that he did not hear him.
"Ling Ran …" Liang Xue completely woke up. "This dream of mine is not pure."
Department Director Hou Fu smiled humbly and said, "Dreams are always the opposite of reality."
Liang Xue looked at his subordinate, Associate Department Director Hou, and laughed. 'At least I'm still a department director when I perform surgeries in my dream. If it's the other way around, won't I be trampled on by you?'
As he thought about this, his smile became cold.
Department Director Hou Fu did not know that he had been recorded in his department director's notebook again. He still pretended to smile innocently and said, "Department director, do you want to go back and sleep?"
"Where's Ling Ran?" Liang Xue looked at the time and asked with a frown.
"He's still performing surgeries."
"Still performing surgeries?"
"Yes, it's the sixth one. I just got a new mechanical arm." The mechanical arm could be used ten times, and Taiwu Central Hospital bought it at a price of 330,000 RMB. In other words, the cost of each use was 33,000 RMB, and it was all self-funded.
For the hospital and the parent company of Da Vinci, the price of the Da Vinci Robot did not mean much. The real core was the use of the mechanical arm and the profit it brought.
A machine that cost 20 million RMB could recover its cost in half a year if it performed surgeries on its own. The Da Vinci Robot Company could naturally earn more from this. It could be seen from their strict recycling of the mechanical arm. It was pure capitalism.
At this time, Liang Xue naturally liked this kind of capitalism.
He smacked his lips, shook his head, and said, "He's a great man of his generation."
"He hasn't slept for twenty hours, and he even rushed here from another place. If I didn't know, I would have thought that he owed a huge mortgage. "
"Be careful with your words." Liang Xue's expression suddenly became serious.
There was a joke among doctors in private. They were not afraid of being seriously ill, but they were afraid of having a mortgage. It was fine for them to say this kind of thing, but if the big shots in the outer hospital heard it, it might be recorded in a notebook.
"I'll go take a look." Liang Xue rubbed his face as he spoke. He took out a wet towel and tore it open. He wiped his face casually before heading to the operating theater.
The operating theater in the early morning was much quieter.
Ling Ran's back was still facing everyone. He held the joystick in his hand, and his fingers were moving very happily.
Through the glass, the mechanical arm moved rhythmically. Up and down, left and right, front and back. It was as if an excellent dancer was getting an electric shock. It was very sensational.
"Doctor Ling, let's take a break after this surgery?" Liang Xue asked politely.
"I don't need to rest." Ling Ran had taken an Energy Serum, so he was full of energy at the moment. How could he bear to rest?
"How can I not rest …"
"Department Director Liang." Ling Ran paused for a moment and asked, "What do you think of my current surgery?"
"Alright! You did it perfectly … "Liang Xue commented helplessly. It was late at night, and he couldn't support her anymore.
Ling Ran nodded. "If there's no problem, I'll continue with the surgery."
Then, the mechanical arm in the operating theater next door continued to move, and it was moving at a high frequency like four long-distance couples.
Liang Xue was so sleepy that he could not help but yawn. When he covered his mouth and wanted to speak, he was held back by Zuo Cidian, who had just gotten up.
"Department Director Liang, Doctor Ling likes to perform surgeries to his heart's content. So, there's no problem with the surgery, right? "Zuo Cidian asked a little solemnly.
Liang Xue was also afraid that he would misunderstand, so he quickly said, "No, no, I'm just afraid that Doctor Ling will be tired."
"It's okay. Doctor Ling likes this kind of thing." Zuo Cidian paused for a few seconds and said, "You don't have to worry about other things. Doctor Ling is very dedicated to surgeries. He won't force himself to perform surgeries, and there's no need for that. You just need to make sure that there are patients who need surgeries coming in."
"Haha, that's easy …" Liang Xue laughed.
"That's good. We only have one request." Zuo Cidian also laughed and said, "Go back and rest. Just send someone here to contact them. Doctor Ling will directly initiate the surgery based on the consensus of the experts. Once we figure it out, we'll send the invitation letter over. It'll only take a few days. "
"Okay, okay. Sigh, then I won't stay up … "Liang Xue really could not take it anymore. He had indeed endured to become a department director, but over the past few years, he had more time to rest, and his energy was even worse, especially when he had to stay up late on non-surgery days. He did not have the motivation to stay up late.
After he left the operating theater, Liang Xue yawned so hard that a pigeon's milk could fit in his mouth. He just wanted to go back and sleep.
"Department director." Department Director Hou Fu stuck to Liang Xue like a little chick.
"You should go back and sleep too. Just arrange someone to watch over the second half of the night, "Liang Xue said with a relaxed expression.
Hou Fu shook his head and said, "Just now, Doctor Zuo said that we need to make sure that there are patients coming in …"
"Just do as you see fit …" Liang Xue said and paused for a moment. He looked at Hou Fu, who was a little dumb.
"If Doctor Ling carries out surgeries like this, I'm afraid that we won't be able to make up for it." Hou Fu said what Liang Xue was worried about.
Department Director Liang Xue frowned. "How is that possible? He only performed six surgeries. "
"There were so many people who watched the surgery yesterday. Many of them went back and performed additional surgeries." Hou Fu sighed and said, "Moreover, we can't just count it as six surgeries. With Doctor Ling's speed, he can finish one surgery in slightly more than an hour. If he doesn't rest, he will have to perform at least six or seven surgeries by tomorrow afternoon. There aren't that many patients who are prepared."
Usually, preparations had to be done before elective surgeries. They had to be reminded about fasting, blood pressure, blood sugar, and other routine tests. They also had to be screened for infectious diseases, and scans had to be prepared …
It could not be helped if they performed emergency surgeries when they came. Take abdominal surgeries for example. Most of the time, exploratory laparotomy was performed directly. As a result, the surgical scar was very large, and the patient recovered slowly.
If the conditions were right, they naturally could not do it this way. This was especially true for some special groups of people, such as patients with basic diseases. If they could not control their blood pressure and blood sugar well before the surgery, there would definitely be a lot of trouble when they needed medication to recover after the surgery.
The General Surgery Department of Taiwu Central Hospital was a large department, so they could easily get a double digit number of patients waiting for surgery. This number was already very large, and it would not be easy to increase it further.
"At this time …" Liang Xue looked at his watch and said helplessly, "Let's start calling tomorrow morning."
"Okay."
"He can't even last one night, right?" Liang Xue frowned. He had just made a promise to Zuo Cidian. If he went back on his words in the blink of an eye, he would be embarrassed.
Hou Fu nodded and said, "I can only guarantee that he can last until tomorrow morning. I can see that Doctor Ling is performing faster and faster …"
He said to himself, and paused.
The department directors of the General Surgery Department had never complained about the speed of a clinician's surgery …
"The weather is bad. I'm not going back. I'll sleep in the on-call room." Department Director Liang Xue glanced out of the window, turned around, and went to the elevator.
Hou Fu looked back. The moon was bright outside the window, and the stars were sparse. It should have been a rare good day.
"The weather is quite bad. I'll also sleep in the on-call room." Hou Fu sighed and turned around.
