Back to 1999: From operating surgeon to becoming a top doctor

He knew Xia Tao. He was very arrogant and looked down on everyone.

After all, anyone who could be the director of surgery had to be good at it.

Surgery was all about skills. Even if you had a strong background, if you couldn't perform surgery, you would still be looked down upon.

As the director of the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Xia Tao was one of the first people who dared to perform lung resection, esophageal and heart surgery.

Now, he was considered the face of the surgical system of Shengli Hospital.

But such a person actually said that his suture was not as good as Xiao Chenguang's.

Such certainty really shocked Wang Jingang.

I didn't expect that Xiao Chenguang's suture skills were so superb.

Wang Jingang recalled the scene when he performed surgery with Xiao Chenguang. After thinking about it, he really didn't know about his skills in this area.

It seems that his understanding of Xiao Chenguang is still not solid enough.

Just when Wang Jingang was lost in thought, Xia Tao and Shi Cong looked at each other.

It seems that Director Wang doesn't know much about Xiao Chenguang.

Come to think of it, Xiao Chenguang has just come to the hospital and has only been in the general surgery department for a few months.

Even if he is Wang Jingang's apprentice, they are not very familiar with each other.

Moreover, judging from his current appearance, it is still unclear whether Wang Jingang is Xiao Chenguang's master.

Since everyone is in the position of director, they naturally see more than just the present.

As Wang Jingang's expression changed, Xia Tao felt that his chance had come.

"Director Wang, I want to discuss something with you."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jingang looked at Xia Tao with a vigilant expression like a cat with its fur blown up.

This guy usually calls Lao Wang Lao Wang, but this time he suddenly said Director Wang, there must be something wrong.

We are all turtles who have practiced for thousands of years, and we all know each other's thoughts.

"Xia Tao, I tell you, don't try to make a bad idea. Xiao Chenguang is a member of our general surgery department, and it is impossible for you to poach him." Wang Jingang said firmly.

Seeing this, Xia Tao smiled slyly:

"Look at you, you're anxious again, how can I snatch the person from you?"

"I just want you to help me, let Xiao Chenguang come to our department to guide the work. We are all brothers in the department, we will always help each other, and we can always exchange experiences and experiences together."

The more high-sounding Xia Tao said, the less Wang Jingang believed it.

This guy actually poached people in front of me, which is really a bit too much.

But Wang Jingang was angry, but he was still confident.

He looked at Xia Tao and suddenly smiled: "Old Xia, actually you don't have to worry about it, Xiao Chenguang is impossible to go to the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery."

"How do you know if you don't try it?"

Seeing that Wang Jingang directly put the matter on the table, Xia Tao simply stopped pretending.

The two people confronted each other openly and secretly, and refused to give in to each other.

The atmosphere around them immediately became tense, and even the air they breathed was frozen.

Shi Cong was in the middle, looking awkward. She looked left and right, trying to adjust the atmosphere, but she didn't know how to start.

After all, the two of them were senior in Shengli Hospital, and many of the students they brought up were at the same level as Shi Cong.

As a newly promoted deputy director of obstetrics, how could she dare to be sandwiched between the two and pretend to be submissive?

She could only lower her head, like an ostrich, and try to dig her neck into the ground, pretending that no one saw it.

At this time, Wang Jingang said something lightly, which not only shocked Shi Cong, but also surprised Xia Tao, who wanted to snatch him.

"What did you say? Your department is now going to develop laparoscopic technology, and this Xiao Chenguang is the person in charge appointed by the dean?!"

Xia Tao said in disbelief.

He never thought that a person who can rescue, operate, and is proficient in suturing technology would eventually become a pioneer of laparoscopic surgery.

The actual operation level of that thing is much more difficult than operating a big knife.

Although the thoracic and cardiovascular surgery department managed by Xia Tao did not have laparoscopic equipment, every time he went out for meetings and studies, there were always big names in the industry actively promoting laparoscopic technology.

He was also fortunate to have seen laparoscopic surgery in a hospital in the provincial capital. Two "guns" could be operated in the human body through small holes.

Even now, he was still amazed.

But this technology has only been seen in the provincial capital. In a small third- or fourth-tier city like theirs, even surgery needs to be considered, so how can laparoscopic technology be developed?

You know, Wang Jingang also made efforts in this regard some time ago, but the result was...

"Old Wang, are you serious?"

"This technology, to put it nicely, can relieve the patient's pain, but if it is not done well, it will be fatal."

Xia Tao suddenly became serious. He didn't want Wang Jingang to repeat the same mistake, nor did he want a rising star to end up with his career because of this laparoscopic technology with extremely high operating risks.

Seeing that Xia Tao had changed his usual behavior and advised Wang Jingang sincerely, the latter's attitude gradually softened.

"Old Xia, we are about to enter the millennium. Hong Kong will return to China, and Macau is about to come. Soon, the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places will become one family. The whole era is progressing. How can we medical students stick to the old ways and remain unchanged?"

"I believe that laparoscopic technology can benefit our people. Why can foreign countries enjoy the benefits of this technology, but we can't?"

"Old Xia, some things, although difficult, have to be done by someone. What do you think?"

Wang Jingang said earnestly that at this moment he was no longer the director of general surgery, but more like an old friend, speaking his mind to Xia Tao.

"You are so stubborn. You haven't changed at all in all these years."

Xia Tao said helplessly.

Having said that, Wang Jingang at this moment, in Xia Tao's eyes, was like a thousand-foot light, shining on him.

Seeing that Xia Tao said no more, Wang Jingang also fell silent.

In fact, there was one thing he didn't say. Once upon a time, he was also deeply trapped in the quagmire and couldn't extricate himself.

Until that night, a ray of light appeared, which completely changed Wang Jingang and made him unswervingly start to choose the path he would take next.

As he thought about it, the light came in front of everyone.

"Directors, are you still chatting?"

Xiao Chenguang came over with a smile on his face.

"Is the interview over?"

Wang Jingang saw that the machine in front of the ICU door was put away.

"I guess so. Reporter Liao wants to follow us to capture some more scenes, so I came to ask you."

"Oh, is that so." Wang Jingang glanced at Liao Changgong who was following Xiao Chenguang, and said casually: "Xiao Xiao, in the future, you don't need to ask me about this kind of thing, just make your own decision."

"How can that be possible..."

"Why not."

Before Xiao Chenguang finished speaking, Wang Jingang said bluntly: "You are now the chief resident of the department. According to hospital regulations, your position is second only to the department director."

"In the future, apart from me, you will be the most senior in the department. You decide on this matter."

As soon as these words came out, Liao Changgong who was following Xiao Chenguang was stunned.

Xia Tao, who was about to speak, was stunned.

Shi Cong, who was still pretending to be an ostrich, was also stunned.

For a moment, the whole air seemed to be still, lonely and silent.
