Meng Shan frowned and returned to the hotel. He forced himself to sleep, but he could not fall asleep.
Meng Shan had not come into contact with Ling Ran for a few days in Beijing, let alone apologize or give him a gift. This was obviously not in line with Meng Shan's plan. However, Meng Shan reflected on himself while lying on the bed. He could not find what he did wrong.
Ling Ran was either busy in the emergency room, preparing for the surgery, performing the surgery, and checking the effect of the surgery … Not only was there always someone beside him, but he could not even get close to him.
When Ling Ran was in the Emergency Department, he had to have an assistant by his side. It was even more so in the operating theater. Meng Shan would be reminded if he got too close. Beijing University Sixth Hospital did not mind doctors from other hospitals visiting, but they would not let them ask Ling Ran questions. It was too time-consuming, and it was easy to make mistakes.
Meng Shan felt that he could not use all his strength. Or rather, in his current state, he had used up all his strength. He could not use any of it. However, Meng Shan was already very tired. He knew that if he persisted, something bad would happen. He could only go back to the hotel to rest.
Then, Meng Shan thought of Ling Ran, who always looked energetic.
Was the da Vinci sleep method really that amazing? Impossible. Maybe it was only useful if he was handsome. When he was about to fall asleep, Meng Shan's mind became very imaginative.
"Phew."
Meng Shan sat up with a start.
When he was dreaming, he dreamt that Ling Ran was performing manual reduction on Colles' fracture. He also dreamt of the cracking sounds he made when Ling Ran massaged his lumbar vertebrae, and the cracking sounds he made when he twisted his neck. As he dreamt, Meng Shan felt that his neck was being twisted and made cracking sounds.
"Evil." Meng Shan looked at the Nautilus on his wrist and found that it was seven in the morning again. This meant that he had slept for almost a day and a night.
Meng Shan could not help but rub his forehead. When he was an attending physician, he often worked overtime like this. Sometimes, he would perform surgeries and work for thirty hours in one go. Then, he would go back and sleep for a day and a night, but that was an extremely tired state.
Recently, Meng Shan felt that he did not have much work intensity, but obviously, his brain did not think so.
Meng Shan went down barefooted and washed up. Then, he changed into the clothes he wore yesterday and went straight to Beijing University Sixth Hospital.
There was no need to mention the traffic jam along the way. When they arrived at the Inpatient Department of Beijing University Sixth Hospital, it was already past nine o 'clock, and the surging number of patients made Meng Shan feel frustrated and envious at the same time.
Unlike the emergency department, which only catered to local residents, most inpatient departments of hospitals in Beijing were catered to patients from all over the country. Here, as long as a doctor could make a national achievement, he or she would become a top doctor in the country.
Next, with the help of the diseases caused by 1.4 billion people, it would be much easier for a famous doctor in Beijing to become a real famous doctor than a senior doctor in a local hospital.
Many doctors who became famous in the local area would rather give up all their connections in the local area and transfer to Beijing. They were also aiming for the medical resources in Beijing. Not only did they get better equipment, surgical environment, and team configuration, but they also got patients. The most important thing was always patients.
If there were enough patients, any middle-level assistant lecturer could use two to three years, or at most three to four years to become a big shot in their field.
If they performed two hundred surgeries every year, they could easily perform one thousand surgeries in two to three years. The concept of performing one thousand similar surgeries could be described as terrifying in the world.
The specialists in Europe and the United States were not competitive at all in this aspect.
However, the best thing about doctors in Europe and the United States was that they could use the most advanced equipment in a timely manner. It was very common in the United States and Western European countries to use surgical equipment that was worth millions or tens of millions of USD for a domestic surgery that only cost a few hundred USD.
There was no doubt about the advantage that advanced equipment could bring. This was just like laparoscopic appendicitis and open appendicitis. If the latter wanted to compete with the latter, the latter would need to be two to three levels higher.
Meng Shan's Eastern Science Hospital also used a similar model. However, the number of patients he could attract was too little, especially doctors who were willing to perform surgeries and major surgeries. So far, there were only a few dozen surgeries in the field of sports medicine, and those surgeries supported the Surgery Department of Eastern Science Hospital.
After staying in Eastern Science Hospital for a long time, Meng Shan felt rather complicated when he saw how crowded a public hospital like Beijing University Sixth Hospital was. In the past, Meng Shan was also a great general in a public hospital. If he had the chance to start over again … Huh?
Meng Shan stopped abruptly.
In front of him, a row of familiar figures stood in front of the elevator.
Meng Shan did not need to look at the front to recognize that the person at the front was Academician Zhu from the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center in Shanghai.
Meng Shan had seen this big shot in the sports medicine field too many times, and he had also been stopped by him too many times. If it were not for Academician Zhu, Meng Shan believed that his status in the sports medicine field in the country would be higher.
Of course, Academician Zhu was now old. Forget about personally performing surgeries, the number of times he performed guided surgeries was also reduced. But a person's reputation was like a tree's shadow. When Liu Weichen's Achilles tendon ruptured that day, Academician Zhu was the first choice in the country. Reality proved that his choice was right. Academician Zhu developed a new surgical method and selected Ling Ran to operate it. This level of skill was also among the best in the world. .
In comparison, it was normal for a sports medicine expert like Meng Shan, who was ranked second, to be taken over. This was because their customer base was actually the same. Those who had a demand for sports medicine and could afford to pay millions of RMB for treatment could always find Academician Zhu in a roundabout way.
Sometimes, when Meng Shan dreamed at night, he would think that with Academician Zhu's age, if he died of old age, or if he could not work anymore …
And today, when Meng Shan watched Academician Zhu and his group walk into the elevator, the nightmare from last night popped up in his mind. It was about Ling Ran, who broke someone's neck and made a cracking sound.
Meng Shan shook his head fiercely and thought, 'I don't want to become a nightmare.'
Meng Shan followed them upstairs and made up his mind that he would solve this matter today.
Upstairs.
Wang Anzhi personally came out to entertain Academician Zhu and his group.
Zhu Tongyi was also a person who often came to Beijing, and he had met Wang Anzhi once. At this time, he held hands, and their elbows were touching. They were so close that they looked like old friends.
"Our Doctor Ling is here. Thank you for taking care of me, Associate Hospital Director Wang. I happened to be here for a meeting, so I came to take a look and say hello. Hahahaha …" Although Zhu Tongyi was seventy years old, he still spoke with vigor.
Wang Anzhi played along and laughed. "Doctor Ling should be the one taking care of us. To be honest, before I met Doctor Ling, I really did not expect such a young surgeon to have such a high achievement. Of course, when I first met him, I did not believe it. He's too handsome, hahahaha. "
"Yes, for our Doctor Ling, being handsome might really be a medical problem." Zhu Tongyi laughed even more happily.
Xu Wen also stood by the side with his hands behind his back. He only glanced at Ling Ran.
He was a very loyal person, and he would only lick the boots of one master at a time. Moreover, although Academician Zhu was strong, he specialized in sports medicine, which was not what Xu Wen was pursuing.
However, Xu Wen was quite envious of Ling Ran. Not only was he handsome and skilled, but he also had Zhu Tongyi to take care of him. After staying in the hospital for a long time, Xu Wen knew the habits of Beijing hospitals. If a doctor like Ling Ran from other places came over to perform freelance surgery, he might be ostracized and humiliated even if he came for an exchange and learning.
Ling Ran had the reputation of Yun Hua Hospital to support him when he performed freelance surgery in Changxi Province. Besides, he was skilled, so naturally, he was unobstructed. It was just like when a staff from the headquarters went to work in a branch, the staff in the branch had to be careful even if they wanted to cause trouble.
However, when Ling Ran came to Beijing, the reputation of Yun Hua Hospital could not be used. For doctors in Beijing, there was not much difference between Yun Hua Hospital, the provincial hospital, or the First People's Hospital of Wuxin City.
In Beijing University Sixth Hospital, Xu Wen and his master, Wang Anzhi, could take care of Ling Ran. However, as Beijing University Sixth Hospital promoted themselves, the doctors from other hospitals that Ling Ran came into contact with might not be so polite.
At this moment, Zhu Tongyi came, and it was obvious that Ling Ran did not ask for help himself.
This kind of care made Xu Wen envious.
"Is Ling Ran going to perform liver cancer surgery today?" Zhu Tongyi turned around and asked.
"I've already performed two cases today," Ling Ran answered, "I'm expecting another one in the afternoon."
"It's this morning, which is equivalent to last night," Wang Anzhi added with a smile.
Meng Shan, who just entered the room, was shocked. 'Two more? What kind of progress is this? '
Academician Zhu nodded in understanding. "Are both surgeries going smoothly?"
"Yes."
"If that's the case … I'll invite a few friends over to watch the surgery in the afternoon. Is it convenient?" Academician Zhu still asked Ling Ran.
Ling Ran did not mind, and he said, "The surgery is scheduled for three o 'clock in the afternoon."
"No problem." Academician Zhu smiled and agreed.
The other doctors in the room sighed again. The friends introduced by the academician were definitely not weak.
Wang Anzhi continued to accompany Zhu Tongyi. When they entered the elevator, he asked in a seemingly casual manner, "Academician Zhu, which experts are you going to invite to watch the surgery? It'll be easier for me to make arrangements in advance."
Academician Zhu said calmly, "I met Academician Du from the Institute of Geology during a meeting yesterday. He did a physical examination and found out that he has primary liver cancer. He doesn't want to have surgery, so I invited him to take a look."
