A heated discussion was going on in the room.
“Let me translate it to layman terms. The expert’s opinion is total bullsh*t.”
“The bullsh*t is not dirty, but the experts are the ones dirty, right?”
“Doctor Ling’s speech has two main points. First, I’m really good, and second, Old Ji is a piece of sh*t.”
The doctors who sat under the stage used only thirty to forty seconds to escalate from whispering to shouting boldly.
The young doctors who were sitting at the back of the meeting room even took this opportunity to say something they usually dared not say.
The hospital system in the country treated young doctors badly, particularly the young doctors from the Department of Surgery of tertiary Grade A hospitals. It could be said that their lives were plain torture.
Even if the department director hugged his sixth mistress and looking at his fourth mistress fight with his current mistress, or even when the associate chief physicians had no time to spend his money and could only increase their efficiency by squeezing in time for threesomes and foursomes., for normal attending physicians, they only earned just enough to feed their families, and resident doctors only earned just enough for themselves.
It could be said that doctors below forty years old could only work hard but would gain nothing. And doctors above forty years old could only gain something if they were lucky.
The wealth gap in hospitals would be more apparent in hospitals with higher grades. Most importantly, any doctors who were ranked lower than associate chief physicians would not have their account and password at their workbench. Therefore, they could only use the account of their senior doctors to prescribe medicine. Thus, all the drug commissions belonged to the senior doctors, and it all depended on the senior doctors whether they would give the junior doctors commission for the medicine.
When the hatred accumulated in such an environment burst out even just a little, that would be enough to make the people at the front reel.
The Digestive Diseases Research Center of the General Surgery Department was built a long time ago and had taken up many opportunities. Hence, it also offended many people. So, if two or three people started venting their hate, these people high up in the digestive diseases research center would feel uncomfortable.
Old Ji indeed felt uncomfortable.
Today should be his important day.
The expert opinion article had been produced after much effort. He could not just write down some casual words and be done with it. He had to combine opinions from many people and obtain a decent conclusion before publishing it.
In terms of the standard operating procedures and publications, when the expert opinion article was released, it would just be a simpler version of an expert consensus article.
Old Ji was ready to publish it and go back for a celebration.
When Old Ji looked at Ling Ran on the stage, his anger could be seen from his eyes.
If Old Ji were braver, Old Ji would stand up and challenge Ling Ran right now. Both sides would raise their opinions, and after their argument, they would go back and continue their arguments through their articles.
Even if Old Ji arrived at that point, he could still avoid bringing shame to himself.
However, when Old Ji thought deeper, he felt that he was not that bold.
After all, the next step of arguing with each other through publications would require materials and evidence.
Good materials and evidence could be examined in an academic aspect. This meant that the expert opinion article written by Old Ji would be investigated carefully by the jackals of Yun Hua Hospital.
Certainly, Old Ji would not allow that.
That was because the titanium clips were not the only oversight in his expert opinion article.
In order to form this opinion, it was “unavoidable” for Old Ji to make some compromises.
Since he had done many compromises, his expert advice article could not be examined too carefully by others…
Besides, Old Ji still needed to prevent the personal attacks from the doctors of Yun Hua Hospital.
Old Ji certainly had no doubt that this would happen. That was because each year, Huo Congjun from Yun Hua Hospital would pick someone and scold them. And Huo Congjun never delivered personal attacks when scolding someone.
Old Ji was more than willing to see someone get scolded fiercely by Huo Congjun, but he was not willing to be watched by others if he got scolded.
Old Ji could not help but think, if he did not compromise for the sake of the manufacturer…
When he thought about this, he could not help but stare at the representative from the manufacturer.
The manufacturer representative from Duco was sweating and noticed Old Ji’s stare, and he immediately gave an ugly smile. He looked like a rat who had its entire stock depleted, and he felt a chill from the depths of his body. There was despair shining from the depths of his eyes, and there was a stiff look about him as well.
The manufacturer representative stared at the host awkwardly.
The host was even more troubled.
Although his role was to control the situation, how could he control such an occasion?
The situation had turned into a battlefield of arguments.
“Okay, then I’ll continue…” Ling Ran’s voice could be heard again from the speaker. He seemed like he wanted to continue his speech.
Even the host was surprised. ‘How could you continue in such a situation?’
But he did not know that Ling Ran was used to messy situations like this.
When he was in kindergarten, elementary school, high school, and even in university, whenever Ling Ran joined such events, regardless of whether it was a public speaking event or debate, there was always an audience who would descend into frenzy.
So, would the event be cancelled just because of this sort of situation? Of course not. It took a lot of time to write the speech, how could he give up so easily?
Ling Ran lowered his microphone, looked at his speech, and continued his speaking.
He was talking about hepatectomy, and he never expected many to understand him. Although the scenario was a bit chaotic, it did not bring much changes to the meeting.
Furthermore, Ling Ran even deliberately lowered his voice when he read his speech, as though he was worried that he would disturb his audience.
Just as everyone expected, Ling Ran’s voice did indeed disappear in the chaotic and noisy room.
At this moment, a soft voice could slowly be heard from the outermost layer.
“Lower your voice please.”
“What is Doctor Ling saying…?”
“Take it outside, you clowns.”
The objections from the crowds gradually disappeared from the chaotic situation.
Ling Ran’s voice could be heard clearly in the room again.
“The main goal of hepatectomy is to remove the targeted lesion as much as possible, but at the same time, optimize the function of the remaining liver and try to minimize surgical invasion. The main goal is to maximize the benefits of the surgery for the patient…”
Chief Physician Ji sat back against his chair quietly. He was thinking about the upcoming arrangements and how he should respond to this.
Ling Ran’s voice did not change and he continued to say, “The remaining liver is the main issue here.
“Hemostasis mainly relies on bleeding control and vascular reconstruction…”
“Regarding nursing care during the perioperative period …”
Chief Physician Ji felt that something was wrong as he listened to this.
“This man is acting as if he’s giving out an expert opinion.” Chief Physician Ji frowned, lowered his head, and muttered.
“Expert opinions are not something just spoken by experts. They can’t publish it just because they want to.” The chief physician beside him smiled.
“He may not have this thought, but try to listen to his speech. It has the beginnings of an expert opinion article.” Chief Physician Ji was incredibly sensitive about it, as he was the one who wrote the manuscript for the expert opinion article from the start to the end.
The chief physician beside him could not help but tremble. “So, he came over here today to…?”
“Not necessary. We’re not standing in his way, after all.” Chief Physician Ji recalled diffidently.
“Is it because we talked about hepatectomy?”
“He’s already meddling with everything. Now, he wants to meddle with other people’s hepatectomies?”
“Then why is he doing this? Could it be because we did not mention this to him earlier? Or maybe it’s because we did not pay him a visit a few days ago?”
Chief Physician Ji kept shaking his head, and he had a headache as he thought about this.
As he thought, he suddenly thought of a question. “We are the ones who were tortured by Ling Ran just now, so why are we constantly thinking about whether we offended him right now?”
