Zhang Tao wasn’t actually very clear either.
But she had talked with her professor yesterday and learned a little bit. "I heard from the professor that those big shots in the Expert Group don’t see patients; they only stay at the same hospital for half a month each year, mainly to help the hospital’s doctors tailor surgery plans for uncertain cases, as well as to solve surgeries that other doctors are unsure about or dare not undertake."
Su Niannian understood what this meant. In plain terms, the opportunities for those doctors from the Expert Group to serve in the hospital were too precious for the hospital to waste on such trivial matters as seeing patients.
She couldn’t help but exclaim, "I think I must have saved the Universe in my past life."
Otherwise, she couldn’t be this lucky in this life!
Zhang Tao quite agreed with this.
In the morning, two surgeries were performed, both ending quickly and smoothly.
Su Niannian had gotten somewhat used to this, no longer as shocked and brain-fried as she had been yesterday.
But after eating lunch and during rest time, she couldn’t help but ask Chi Gui, "Sister Chi, you said yesterday that you couldn’t perform too delicate operations. What exactly constitutes a delicate operation?"
The positioning of the tumor in the second surgery that morning was particularly tricky; a single millimeter mistake could cause permanent damage to the patient’s brain.
To Su Niannian, this was already an extremely delicate operation, but Chi Gui didn’t seem to be under any pressure at all.
Hearing this question, Chi Gui thought for a moment, then said, "Do you know about that skull surgery that shocked the world a couple of years ago?"
Chi Gui’s statement was vague, but Su Niannian instantly knew.
It wasn’t for any other reason but that the surgery at that time was too sensational, being called a global hot news was not an exaggeration.
The patient had a rare brain neural disease with a global incidence of less than one percent; the location of the disease was particularly tricky, and even the surgical tools had to be customized because the common tools were too thick to reach the affected area.
Even so, there was no room for error allowed for the surgeon; even a slight tremor could lead to the patient’s death or permanent coma.
The disease was so rare, and the doctors had no reference guide; the difficulty of the operation was so high that, for a while, no doctor in the world dared to undertake it.
Out of helplessness, the patient’s family asked the media to publish their story and seek help. As soon as it was released, it completely exploded around the world, touching countless hearts.
In the end, the surgery was successfully completed by a Huaxia doctor leading a team, without causing any harm to the patient.
This news was hot worldwide for half a year and even hotter in Huaxia for over two years!
Because, that was the first time that Huaxia’s medical skills had shocked the world!
That Huaxia doctor and the team members severely smacked the faces of those who ridiculed Huaxia’s medical skills, saying Huaxia doctors could only handle small colds.
Even after that incident, the International Medical Alliance itself added more spots for Huaxia doctors.
Before that, all Huaxia medical scholars, including veterans like Wu Zhiyuan, had struggled their whole lives just to crack open the International Medical Alliance’s review qualifications for Huaxia medical scholars.
As for whether one could get in, they still had to go through rigorous assessments.
The emergence of that doctor back then could be said to have directly pushed Huaxia’s medicine forward a big step!
However, the country was very protective of that doctor’s identity, never revealing any information. Everyone guessed it was Academician Wu Zhiyuan, given that he was the leader in the field of Huaxia’s brain neural diseases at the time.
Su Niannian had always thought so too.
But at this moment, hearing Chi Gui’s question, she couldn’t help but widen her eyes, shaking with emotion as she looked at Chi Gui and asked, "Sister Chi... that doctor back then... it couldn’t be... you, could it?"
