Li Baoshan and Li Jianwei, along with others, rushed out of the emergency room when the police car stopped.
Through the window, Yuan Fan saw this scene and muttered to himself, “What’s happened now?”
With that thought, he quickly stood up and ran outside.
He saw a young officer in uniform hurry down from the police car and promptly opened the rear door.
On seeing this, Li Baoshan pondered for a moment, “Could it be a leader? What are they doing at the hospital?”
When the officer opened the door, out stepped a man—it was Chen Cang?
This startled Li Baoshan!
You see, there are only two possibilities for someone getting out of a police car when the door is opened for them: one is a leader, the other is a criminal!
Chen Cang was obviously not a leader…
At this thought, Li Baoshan’s expression changed, and he hurried forward, only to be pulled back by Li Jianwei’s grasped arm: “Wait a moment.”
Li Baoshan noticed that Chen Cang seemed to be uncontrolled after he got out, right?
Could it be that little Chen has committed a crime?!
Therefore, Li Baoshan walked straight up to him.
But then he saw another person get out of the rear seat, and upon closer inspection, it was Tan Zhonglin?
Why was he in the police car with Chen Cang?
Li Baoshan was utterly confused!
Li Jianwei also looked bewildered.
The surgical field in Anyang City wasn’t vast, revolving just around those few people, especially since Tan Zhonglin was quite unique.
After all, in Dongyang Province departments specializing in hand surgery weren’t that common—Provincial People’s Hospital and East University Second Hospital were among the few, and naturally, Tan Zhonglin was highly sought after by various hospitals, regularly invited for consultations or to perform surgeries.
Seeing Tan Zhonglin getting out, Li Jianwei took the initiative to greet him: “Director Tan? Hehe, long time no see. What brings you to the Provincial Second Hospital?”
Tan Zhonglin smiled, stepped forward, and after shaking hands with Li Jianwei and Li Baoshan,
he joked, “Today, I’m here to apologize!”
Li Baoshan immediately became curious, “Ah? Apologize? For what?”
The rest of the people also pricked up their ears and widened their eyes.
Only then did Tan Zhonglin explain, “This morning, there was an emergency surgery. I invited little Chen to help out at Provincial People’s!”
Li Baoshan’s eyes widened, “Little Chen? He went to your place to perform surgery? How could he help? With so much talent at Provincial People’s Hospital, how could you be short of talent?!”
Hearing this, Tan Zhonglin immediately shook his head; it seemed Li Baoshan was still unaware of Chen Cang’s expert tendon suturing technique!
So he said, “That’s right! I called little Chen for help. Today’s surgery was quite challenging, and there were some small steps 1 wasn’t confident about. After a lot of thought, there was only one person who could help me—that was little Chen.”
This statement astonished everyone present.
What a high praise that was!
Anyang City’s leading hand surgeon Tan Zhonglin was saying that Chen Cang’s work was better than his!
Such an honor—who else could claim it?
The several directors around were equally astounded, wondering what surgery Chen Cang was a master of to earn such praise from Tan Zhonglin.
Yuan Fan, back in his place, was also staring wide-eyed in disbelief.
This Chen Cang… how could this be… It’s impossible!
But the reality was right in front of everyone, leaving no room for doubt!
Could it be that someone as reputable as Tan Zhonglin came along with Chen Cang just to put on an act?
At that moment, the young officer in uniform escorted Chen Cang, then stood up across from Chen Cang and saluted seriously,
“Dr. Chen! Thank you for saving our captain. I have to head back now, there are still matters at the station.”
Chen Cang nodded, “Thank you, drive safely.”
The young man drove away.
Leaving everyone dumbfounded.
This is real?!???
At this moment, Li Baoshan, seeing more and more onlookers gathering, said, “Little Chen, come to my office with me!”
That’s when everyone returned to the director’s office.
After listening to Chen Cang explain the whole situation, Li Jianwei and the others were momentarily unable to accept it!
This kid is too demonic, right?
Even Li Baoshan really wanted to pull Chen Cang aside and ask earnestly, “What exactly else can you do?”
Tan Zhonglin’s admiration for Chen Cang grew as he watched him, his eyes filled with appreciation, almost wishing he could take him away immediately.
The hand surgery department at Provincial People’s Hospital was experiencing a gap, as the new generation of young people had not yet grown up. If Chen Cang could join and be given key training, he might lead the hand surgery department of Provincial People’s Hospital back to its former glory!
Thinking of this, Tan Zhonglin turned to Li Baoshan, “Director Li, 1 apologize for bypassing you and directly asking Chen to help today due to the emergency.”
After a smile, he said to everyone, “I came here today mainly to discuss some matters with Dean Qin, so I won’t disturb you all any longer.”
“Chen, well talk more when we’re free…”
With that, Tan Zhonglin turned and left.
Seeing this, Chen Cang also quickly got up, “Director, I’m leaving too… You all take your time chatting.”
Just as Li Baoshan was about to nod, Li Jianwei suddenly waved his hand, “Don’t rush, Chen. I came to find you today because I wanted to discuss something with you.”
Chen Cang nodded, “Please speak, Dean Li.”
Li Jianwei smiled, “It’s not anything big, just about the minimally invasive research for the endoscopic surgery technique you improved. The hospital pays great attention to it and believes it’s a very promising research. You could apply for a project, and the hospital will support you to refine this technique and promote it,”
“So we want you to be the person in charge of this project! What do you think?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Cang quickly shook his head, “This… Dean Li, I’m afraid to sound ridiculous, but I’ve not been involved in research since graduating with my bachelor’s degree and starting work… so I’m not good at research. I can treat patients and perform surgeries. I can strive to improve surgical techniques, but doing research… I’m afraid I would mess it up!”
Li Jianwei heard this and immediately laughed and shook his head, “There’s specialization in every art, don’t worry. Let Director Li Baoshan be the project leader, but you just need to be the second in charge as the technical supporter and provider. You won’t have to deal with the rest, with Director Zhang Youfu being in charge of the clinical work.”
“Regarding your educational background… there’s no need to rush. This year, our hospital is cooperating with Dongyang Medical University to train graduate students. We ll contact the school to see if we can take this opportunity and get you a direct recommendation to start your master’s degree with this year’s batch of students. After all, graduate students are now being trained in the hospital. We will solve these issues for you.”
“You just need to focus on working with Director Li and Director Zhang on this project’s research! What do you think?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Cang’s face lit up with surprise!
Could such good things happen?
Could he directly follow and pursue a graduate degree?
Chen Cang couldn’t refuse, he quickly said, “Thank you, Dean Li!”
Li Jianwei nodded, “You go and get busy then!”
After Chen Cang left, everyone looked curiously at Li Jianwei, as none of this had been mentioned before!
It was even different from the results of the discussion with everyone.
Not to mention the graduate studies.
Li Jianwei saw everyone’s curiosity and sighed, “You must be wondering why I promised so much?”
Everyone nodded.
Li Jianwei smiled bitterly, “I hadn’t thought about all this at first, including promising Chen a graduate position, it was all a spur-of-the-moment decision!”
“But… didn’t you see Tan Zhonglin’s expression just now? He seemed like he was about to kidnap Chen!”
“To put it bluntly, no matter if Chen stays in emergency, or in cardiac surgery, or general surgery, as long as it’s our hospital, that’s all fine! Even I won’t interfere with these.”
“However, Tan Zhonglin’s visit has sounded the alarm for me!”
“As you’ve seen, Chen is only 27 years old, and with so many talents at such a young age, even Tan Zhonglin from Provincial People’s has his eye on him, not to mention others?”
“So, the question is, can we keep Chen?”
“To be honest, don’t you know the level of our Provincial Second Hospital’s surgery department? Our surgical department can only be considered mid-level in An Yang City, and the young people, unlike you, are looking for a future.”
With this, everyone sighed.
Li Jianwei continued, “So, whether we rely on our hardware, funding, technology ceiling, or future prospects, we have no advantages! To keep Chen Cang, we can only rely on one thing!”
“That’s to use the resources at our disposal to nurture Chen!”
“When he is in most need of development, we can lend a helping hand to aid his progress, and if so…”
“Even if Chen leaves our hospital later on, this place will always be his foundation, and when our hospital needs help, Chen will extend a helping hand!”
This made everyone fall silent.
It could be… the harsh truth!
After Li Jianwei finished speaking, he smiled, “Of course, I might be overestimating him a bit since it’s still too early to tell anything, but after all, he’s our employee and we should still make an effort to foster his growth.” ps: Damn… I originally planned to update at 12:00, but 1 accidentally released a chapter early….
