Surgery Godfather

Chapter 86: Chapter 0084: Heart-to-Heart Trust

In the evening, Dean Xia hosted a banquet in the hospital’s private restaurant to welcome Tan Boyun.

Before attending the banquet, Director Han called Tan Boyun to his office and poured him a cup of tea.

“Thank you, Director, you’re too kind!” Tan Boyun took the tea with both hands.

“Sit, sit!” Director Han grabbed his own Yixing teacup and took a sip.

“This is decent tea!” Sitting down, Tan Boyun also took the time to taste it.

“Brother Tan, honestly, in Fuer, whether it’s surgery or research, you’re first-rate. What you lack is just a platform, a platform where you can showcase your talents. After you’ve joined Sanbo, I’ll completely hand the micro-injury orthopedics to you. You can do as you wish, and I’ve got your back. As long as it’s in line with the larger orthopedics strategic plan, I won’t interfere. You have complete freedom and unless it’s strategic issues, you don’t need to report to me. Ouyang, Old Bai, and Old Ding, I’ve spoken with them, they’ll be offering you their complete support. Unity and progress are our cherished traditions at Sanbo. However, there’s always an adjustment period. If they display any discontent in the short term, please be understanding.”

Director Han spoke candidly.

Hearing these words, Tan Boyun was filled with mixed feelings. He couldn’t help thinking how over the years at Fuer, he had no place to vent. Why didn’t he come here earlier? Han Jiangong is indeed talented and charismatic, no wonder all of his subordinates follow him devotedly.

“I definitely won’t let you down!” Tan Boyun said emotionally, “A scholar living in purity and contentment, being respected and having the freedom to showcase his abilities, that’s enough!”

“Did Tian Yuan take you for a tour of the operating room?” Director Han asked.

“Yes, I have seen it. I also checked out the surgical robot, our equipment is top-notch,” Tan Boyun replied.

“That’s nothing. Right now, your Micro-Injury Orthopedics Department is the main force. Without proper equipment, how can you fight a battle? The Tianji, prioritize it in your department, I plan to buy another one for the other Orthopedics Departments to share. If there’s anything else you need, make a list and I will get Dean Xia to approve it.” Director Han said energetically.

“At the end of the year, we’re planning to host an Orthopedics Academic Conference. Initially, I was going to be in charge, but now that you’re here, you will take over. Tian Yuan will assist you. We will have Fuyi, Fuer, Provincial People’s Hospital, and City People’s Hospital in attendance, and we’ve also invited a few foreign professors. You can work out the details with Tian Yuan,” Director Han continued.

“That’s not right! It can’t be. Director, you should take charge. Tian Yuan and I will assist you,” Tan Boyun refused.

“We’re family here, no need for dilly-dallying. You’ve just arrived, you need the conference to raise your profile. The academic conferences at Fuer, you’ve always been a sidekick, this time you’re the leading role,” Director Han insisted firmly.

Tan Boyun was extremely touched. Director Han was indeed a visionary and open-hearted. He was nothing like someone who was always afraid of being overshadowed by his subordinates, always confining him.

Any more refusals would appear unappreciative.

“Director, I’m flattered that you think so highly of me. I will give it my all to achieve results and repay you,” he said.

The two of them had a heart-to-heart in the office. They hit it off well, drinking cup after cup of tea and laughing heartily. It was only when they were urged over the phone to go to dinner that they ended their conversation and rushed off to the hospital’s private restaurant.

Yang Ping got off work and rode in Little Five’s car. Half an hour was half an hour. He could take a nap in the car.

“Senior, that Zhong guy was much less arrogant today. You didn’t see how cocky he was at the beginning,” Little Five said while driving.

Yang Ping commented, “Didn’t he submit in the end? The law of the jungle applies everywhere, there’s nothing to discuss!”

“Is Tan Boyun really that great? Director Han gave him the position of director of the Trauma Orthopedics Department?” Little Five also liked to ask these questions.

Yang Ping replied, “He definitely has strength, otherwise why would Director Han have chosen him? We just need to do our own jobs, Director Han knows what he’s doing with these arrangements.”

Little Five nodded, “I was just chatting idly with you.”

“Ding-dong, because of the host’s good performance, after system evaluation, the timing consumption of the library has been reduced. Each point can now purchase one hour of learning time,” the system announced.

The system was pretty decent. It seemed that it pays to work hard, the system rewards those who make the effort. If you don’t work hard, the system will probably leave you behind.

Now, with thirty thousand points in hand, he felt at ease. One point can now buy one hour of study time in the system library; this price was practically a steal. Yang Ping decided to move all his studying into the system space. In preparation for his doctoral exams next year, there was a lot to learn, from medical theory to English.

English wasn’t about flattering foreign ideas. Modern medicine originated from the West, and many achievements are recorded in English. If you want to surpass others, you must first learn from them. Sticking to one’s old ways and preserving the remains will only result in being left far behind.

Yang Ping’s foundation was good to begin with, so now that he can learn in the system space, his learning progress was naturally much faster than others.

In the car, Yang Ping entered the system space and studied for a week, but it only cost him a hundred and sixty-eight points.

When he exited the system space, his phone rang.

It was a call from Huang Jiacai. Now, there’s an odd one.

“Hello, Doctor Yang, this is Huang Jiacai, do you have time to meet up?”

“Bro, you don’t have to bother, I’ve told you, I won’t go to that Orthopedics Hospital.” Yang Ping found this man a bit too persistent, almost stubborn.

The other party was silent for a while: “I didn’t mean that, I have a personal matter and I need your help. If it’s convenient, can we meet at a nearby cafe?”

“Now?”

“Is it convenient?”

He might have been waiting already. Why not go meet him, for the sake of the ice cream.

“Alright!” Yang Ping agreed.

“Get me to that cafe near the hospital,” Yang Ping said.

“Are you inviting me for coffee?” Little Five was delighted.

“Some weird guy wants to chat with me, I’m going to check it out,” Yang Ping said.

Little Five didn’t ask further, dropped him off at the cafe and said, “Call me when you’re done, I’ll pick you up.”

“It’s just a few steps; you don’t need to pick me up, you can go back,” Yang Ping closed the car door.

As expected, Huang Jiacai was already there, with a young girl with short, pretty hair sitting next to him.

Was he really taking my joke about introducing a girlfriend seriously?

It was a booth for four people. Huang Jiacai and the girl sat side by side, while Yang Ping took a seat across them.

“Doctor Yang, sorry for bothering you after you’ve finished work. But this is the only time you’re free,” Huang Jiacai was always polite and humble at all times.

“No worries, what is it?” Yang Ping took the hot coffee from the waiter and took a sip.

“It’s nothing much, I want to introduce someone to you,” Huang Jiacai said.

He really was introducing a girlfriend. This guy is quite something. Yang Ping looked at the girl across him, who was slightly shy. He decided to let him finish his words.

“Huang Jiahui, my sister,” Huang Jiacai introduced.

The girl stood up, extended her hand, “Looking forward to working with you.”

“Looking forward to working with you.” Yang Ping shook hands with her, not quite understanding what he was supposed to be looking forward to.

“Who is she?” Yang Ping asked Huang Jiacai.

“Oh, Doctor Yang, Jiahui just started working at Tianji company as a technical specialist, you might be working together in the future,” Huang Jiacai said.

“Isn’t Tianji the company that makes surgical robots? Our hospital just bought one, we haven’t started performing surgeries with it yet. I’m afraid there’s not much I can do in terms of ‘looking after’ her,” Yang Ping was still unsure what he was supposed to look after. He was just a doctor after all.

“It’s alright, just getting to know each other. You can look after each other in the future,” Huang Jiacai said.

“That’s all?” As long as he wasn’t introducing a girlfriend.

There wasn’t much to chat about, so the three of them just drank coffee.

Huang Jiahui introduced some recent developments in surgical robots and took out a stack of documents from her bag for Yang Ping to look at.

This was valuable information. Although he has access to a vast amount of data in the system space, they were all public publications, books, and published papers.

This kind of internal information from medical equipment companies was not available, and Yang Ping was very interested in it.

After all, surgical robots were considered the third generation of surgical technology, following traditional surgery and minimally invasive surgery.

He was bound to come into contact with it and master it eventually.
