After being ignored by Qin Yue once again, Jiang Tao was somewhat baffled!
What... what on earth was going on?
Did I say something wrong again?
Jiang Tao sighed helplessly!
Alas, compared to surgery, he really wasn't good at dealing with women.
However, just at that moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Jiang Tao hurriedly picked up the phone, and seeing it was his teacher, he immediately felt much relieved!
The teacher still thought of me!
After picking up the call, he instantly heard a familiar voice: "Hello? Xiao Jiang, I have something to ask you!"
Jiang Tao saw his teacher was in such a hurry and quickly said, "Teacher, what is it?"
Gu Hongmei said, "Where did you get that tendon guide you posted a few days ago!"
Jiang Tao was stunned for a moment: "What tendon guide?"
Gu Hongmei: "The one you sent on WeChat, saying it was a rehabilitation guide for tendons made by the doctors in your department, was it really made by your department?"
It was only then that Jiang Tao remembered; he had forgotten about this!
He hadn't expected the teacher would ask about this.
"Yes, teacher, it was indeed made by a doctor in our department."
Upon hearing this, Gu Hongmei got a bit excited, "Xiao Jiang, let me tell you, after you sent it over last time, I had the patients who just finished surgery try it, and guess what? The effect was significant!"
"It had a better effect than the tendon rehabilitation guide we used at our hospital, noticeably shortening the recovery period! It improved rehabilitation effectiveness, and it seems to even significantly reduce adhesion sequelae!"
"But... I feel this guide isn't complete!"
"Could you introduce that doctor to me?"
Gu Hongmei's words had already dumbfounded Jiang Tao!
Why do I feel like the teacher is teasing me?
Gu Hongmei said, "Xiao Jiang, you have a good eye, and this attitude of being willing to share is good, but... won't your workplace mind that you're sharing such confidential material?"
Mind, why would they mind?
Share, what did I share?
Was I supposed to share?
Jiang Tao swallowed nervously!
Was this really my intention?
And... with stacks of tendon rehabilitation guides on the emergency nurse's station, were they really departmental secret material?
Could it be that the Second Provincial Hospital was so casual as to place what the teacher saw as precious rehabilitation guides at the nurse's station in the emergency hall, as if they were mere brochures?
Thinking of this, Jiang Tao felt somewhat surreal — was the teacher misunderstanding something about this tendon rehabilitation guide?
"Teacher, it's all right, our hospital's rehabilitation guide isn't confidential."
Jiang Tao cautiously said this without mentioning that in actual fact, his hospital treated those tendon rehabilitation guides like brochures, haphazardly lying on the nurses' station, free for anyone to take.
He worried that if he were to say this, the teacher might not be able to cope with it all at once...
After hearing what Jiang Tao said, Gu Hongmei paused for a little while, then, with a sigh, spoke with some emotion, "The person who made this is truly great, and they're not seeking any rewards. This kind of tendon rehabilitation guide could definitely be classified as departmental secret material, yet they chose to make it public!"
"This is precisely the professional quality a true clinical researcher should have!"
In Gu Hongmei's words, there was admiration!
Mixed with her admiration was a feeling akin to inferiority!
This left Jiang Tao not knowing what to say.
This Chen Cang... is he really as amazing as you're saying?
Right then, Jiang Tao was somewhat lost.
Gu Hongmei suddenly said, "Xiao Jiang, if it's convenient, could you give me Dr. Chen's phone number? I'd like to have a detailed discussion with him about this matter when I have time."
Jiang Tao was momentarily stunned with embarrassment, "Teacher, please wait, I don't have his number right now. I'll talk to him when I get back and ask him to give you a call."
Upon hearing this, Gu Hongmei nodded, that would be fine.
However, she didn't forget to caution a few words:
"Xiao Jiang, you have talent, but you are a bit arrogant. Remember, you must be humble and devout! When facing knowledge and scholarship, you must maintain a heart of humility."
"And honestly, you are lucky to be able to work in such a hospital and department. I used to think how strong could the emergency orthopedics department at the second provincial hospital be, but now it seems I was wrong!"
Jiang Tao sighed, Teacher, you are not wrong, our department's orthopedics is really poor, we have only two and a half orthopedic surgeons in total.
Director An counts as one, I count as one, and Dr. Chen... is quite versatile, so let's say half an orthopedic surgeon, since he does everything!
"You must learn well from that Dr. Chen! If he can create such a tendon rehabilitation guide, it shows that his understanding of tendons is far above both you and me. Study hard!"
After giving her instructions, Gu Hongmei hung up the phone.
Jiang Tao was left standing there, utterly bewildered.
Could it be… that I'm just too low-level and haven't realized how formidable Dr. Chen really is?
At this thought, Jiang Tao went silent.
Even if he didn't believe what others said, he couldn't not believe his own mentor.
Following his mentor from his master's to his doctorate, his understanding of orthopedics over the past six years came entirely from her.
Jiang Tao couldn't help but sigh.
Perhaps... maybe I am indeed a bit arrogant.
Underestimating everyone in the world.
Just then, An Yanjun hurried into the office and said to Jiang Tao, "Xiao Jiang, I have an assignment for you."
Jiang Tao quickly stood up, "Director An, what's the matter?"
An Yanjun spoke hastily, "I've just received news from Nantong. Professor Tang is coming to the second provincial hospital, his flight is at twelve o'clock tomorrow night. You go and pick up Professor Tang!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tao was momentarily startled, "Director An… I don't know which Professor Tang you're talking about!"
An Yanjun also slapped his forehead!
Right, how could he have overlooked this detail?
Too excited, too excited!
But, which doctor in the field of hand surgery isn't familiar with the name Professor Tang!
The founder of the Tang method, the creator of the world-renowned "Tang's Zones"... A giant in China's field of hand surgery, a reviewer for the European Journal of Hand Surgery...
In short, he's endowed with many accolades and honors.
When it comes to hand surgery, one has to mention Professor Tang.
An Yanjun quickly said with a smile, "Which other Professor Tang could it be? It's the Professor Tang of the Tang suture method! In hand surgery, we only have that one Professor Tang!"
Hearing An Yanjun's words, Jiang Tao instantly stood up, eyes widened in disbelief, and looked at An Yanjun, "Director An… Is it that Professor Tang?"
An Yanjun nodded with a smile, "Of course!"
After getting confirmation from An Yanjun, Jiang Tao became excited.
Professor Tang, his idol!
Thinking that he was going to pick up his idol in person, Jiang Tao suddenly felt a surge of excitement and anticipation.
An Yanjun looked at Jiang Tao and asked with a smile, "You're free tomorrow night, right?"
Jiang Tao nodded, "Yes! I'm free!"
"But… Director An, why don't you go to meet him?"
An Yanjun shook his head, "I'm swamped with surgeries tomorrow; they're all important clients who want Chen to do the surgery personally, so I have to help out!"
Jiang Tao nodded excitedly, "Director, don't worry, leave it to me!"
An Yanjun hummed in response, "Okay, I'll send you the details later, make sure to check them!"
