When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 1702: I Obtained... the Forbidden Surgery!



The end of the year had arrived.

The world's major journals were also beginning to release their annual editions.

So, during this time, everyone was incredibly busy.

Wu Tongpu was attending meetings everywhere.

Meanwhile, Chen Cang was taking things in stride, focusing on his own matters.

However, the Capital Emergency Center Hospital suddenly became the talk of the town!

Because the latest rankings from the "World Hospital" magazine were released.

When people saw that the Capital Emergency Center Hospital had ranked in the top 20 this year, and in the specialized field rankings, it was in the top three!

This achievement shocked the entire world.

Not to mention the hospitals within the country.

Wu Tongpu was feeling quite refreshed and invigorated.

This honor might be a number that Wu Tongpu could never surpass in his lifetime.

Seeing the clinical and research scores leading simultaneously, only Xiehe Hospital ranked 19th with a total score just over a point higher.

Yet, the Capital Emergency Center muscled its way into the top twenty.

This achievement was enough to make one stand proudly in the circle.

Old Wu was indeed extremely happy this time.

Because in the hospital specialty technology rankings:

The Capital Emergency Center Hospital made it into four rankings:

Emergency Department: Worldwide rank of third.

Gastrointestinal Surgery: Worldwide rank of third.

Cardiac Surgery: Worldwide rank of second.

Neurosurgery: Worldwide rank of third.

What does such an achievement represent?

It represents the pinnacle of industry honor!

Within three days of the magazine's release, the buzz around the Capital Emergency Center continued to rise, and this glorious figure was enough to make many proud.

But!

At this moment inside the conference room.

Wu Tongpu hardly had time to be happy before everyone convened a meeting!

The core issue of the meeting was simple!

How to resolve the loss caused by Chen Cang's departure!

Looking at He Zhiqian, Xu Ziming, Hu Chuanbang, and Yu Yonggang among others.

Everyone remained silent!

After all, your four departments entered the top three, find out for yourselves why.

What do we do after Chen Cang leaves?

There seemed to be...no way at all.

They suddenly realized that this ranking was entirely a nod to Chen Cang's reputation.

The meeting was discussed for two days!

Five hours of discussion each day.

Everyone discovered that there appeared to be...no need for discussion at all.

After Chen Cang leaves, they absolutely won't make it into the top hundred, let alone the top three.

While Chen Cang was there, the publication of papers, projects, new procedures, and the emergence of new technologies all revolved around Chen Cang.

Once Chen Cang leaves, all will vanish, attempting to break into the top hundred.

Dream on!

Perhaps relying on Chen Cang's afterglow, they might still manage to fuss a bit.

But...it basically won't be useful.

And the directors of these hospitals in the capital, upon seeing such achievements by the Capital Emergency Center, were all filled with envy.

Li Kai, director of Xiehe, truly had apprehensions in his heart, almost surpassed by this guy.

However, although their overall score did not exceed Xiehe, the four top three rankings of the Capital Emergency Center were truly impressive.

Almost in an instant, all hospitals were offering olive trees to Chen Cang!

Correct!

An olive branch wouldn't do, seemed too paltry.

It had to be an olive tree, if not a whole grove.

As long as Chen Cang can be brought back, everything is negotiable.

Now, Wu Tongpu was, in fact, not the happiest but the most worried.

After all, the greatest disappointment is raising you high and then suddenly leaving...

Yet, something unexpected happened.

Everyone noticed on the "World Hospital" rankings that Dongyang Province's Second People's Hospital, an unranked hospital, suddenly unknowingly climbed to the 100th place!

All the first hundred spots on the list were this hospital!

This alone was enough to be intriguing.

When asked about the reason, there was just one answer.

"Chen Cang!"

Could the name Chen Cang really propel a non-ranking hospital into the top hundred?

Originally!

There were still some objections about this plan led by Kong Xiangmin in Dongyang Province, but since the publication of the "World Hospital".

The leaders even made a special visit to Dongyang Province!

They personally checked out the high-tech and high-disease areas and also visited the under-preparation Chen Cang New Medicine Research Institute.

As well as the low-rent housing and newly built primary and middle schools.

This signal was clear enough!

Moreover, the leaders made directives regarding the future development planning of Dongyang Province!

They highly praised Kong Xiangmin's spirit of daring to act boldly, bringing in talent, and conscientiously conducting business.

Initially, many places were not optimistic about this measure from Kong Xiangmin.

But!

Following the visit by the leadership and their high praises for Kong Xiangmin, everyone seemed to sense an extraordinary air!

In the end, was Kong Xiangmin helping Chen Cang?

Or was Chen Cang helping Kong Xiangmin?

The question appeared simple!

Yet, it was terrifying!

Maybe everyone underestimated Chen Cang.

What could a doctor accomplish?

Mediate politics? Influence the economy? Or affect livelihoods?

This time, the future development plan of Dongyang Province was a concrete demonstration of this point.

East Yang Province!

Perhaps the future development will revolve around the medical and health sector!

As the economic and political hub of the Central Plains, a transportation junction connecting five provinces and thirteen cities, the development here has quietly been given a set tone by the state!

And this time, Kong Xiangmin has naturally taken a step up!

At this moment!

The most critical position is still vacant.

Who will be the director of the Second People's Hospital of East Yang Province?!

And who can actually do it!

At this very moment, a small third-tier hospital...

As the end of 2020 draws nearer, there's still no conclusion.

...

...

Just then, Chen Cang, who had just completed a surgery, suddenly heard the system notification sound!

[Ding! Congratulations, the Capital Emergency Center ranks: No. 1!]

[Reward received: 1. One Colorful Neurosurgery Skill Book! 2. Randomly enhance one surgical skill to perfect level! 3. Charisma +10!]

Chen Cang was stunned looking at the system rewards!

Whoa!

A great harvest indeed.

Chen Cang was truly shocked again by the rewards.

The rewards were quite stunning, especially the Skill Book radiating colorful light.

Chen Cang's heart was beating wildly in apprehension!

He directly chose to open the Skill Book!

[Ding! The Colorful Skill Book, once opened, generates a surgical skill leading this era!]

Hearing this, Chen Cang took a deep breath and eagerly opened it.

[Ding! Congratulations, you've acquired the Spinal Cord Fusion Surgery (Perfect Level!), not yet activated, activation requires completion of 100 Spinal Cord Repair Surgeries!]

As soon as Chen Cang saw this skill, his pupils locked!

This skill!

It actually appeared!

Chen Cang never imagined that such a skill would appear.

Spinal Cord Fusion Surgery might just sound like an ordinary spinal repair surgery.

But!

If you know where the core essence of this surgery lies, you'll surely be shocked!

One can say!

Anyone who overcomes the technical barrier of spinal cord fusion.

Is bound to cause a huge stir in the field of neurosurgery.

Whether in medical ethics or medicine itself, there will be an unprecedented impact!

Because!

The Spinal Cord Fusion Surgery is the core step of head transplant surgery!

Perhaps, many are familiar with head transplant surgeries.

Over the years, the hype around head transplants has emerged time and again.

Currently!

No country in the world can execute such a surgery.

It's even termed a forbidden zone in medicine!

Because, after a head transplant, who truly is the person?

No one can determine!

Since 2015, discussions on head transplant surgeries have gradually emerged around the world.

Domestically, it has been the loudest and hottest topic.

Because as it stands, except for the head, almost all other organs and tissues in the human body can be replaced, such as artificial hearts and kidneys.

If an organ fails, we can replace it.

If we accidentally break our pelvis, we can replace it with a new one.

But head transplant surgeries are incredibly challenging, requiring not just the connection of blood vessels from the head to a new body, but also the perfect integration of bone marrow and nerves to perform normal physiological functions without causing immune rejection.

Firstly, spinal fusion is a major, complex hurdle.

As, thus far, there has been little progress in neurosurgery like reconnecting transverse spinal cords, let alone severing and restoring the cervical spinal cord vital for life, especially connecting nerves from two different individuals.

This surgery also brings a huge controversy concerning ethics that need to be discussed and resolved.

If successful, what will be the identity of the patient, who should they belong to, their head, or their body? Resolving this is crucial for their social role.

For instance, if the body commits a crime in the future, how should it be judged, and should the head be subjected to the same punishment?

Moreover!

The human brain remains a forbidden zone.

We have no idea, if the surgery succeeds, to whom the memories belong!

Thinking of this, Chen Cang himself felt a tinge of fear.

He decided to keep this surgery skill concealed!

Perhaps, he might need it someday.

But definitely not today!

Of course, he could extract some methods from this technology to perform orthopedic surgeries — that's an option.

Next, Chen Cang opened the second reward!

[Ding! Randomly enhancing a surgical skill to perfect level . . . Randomizing . . .]

[Ding! Congratulations, you've enhanced Heart and Lung Transplant Surgery to Perfect Level!]

Chen Cang's eyes lit up instantly!

What's going on today?

Is Lady Luck with him?

Why are the rewards so abundant!

The last one, Charisma +10!

[Ding! Charisma +10, acquired skill: Aura of Authority!]

Chen Cang paused for a moment.

He seemed to have discovered something...

The improvement of attribute points, could it grant skills???

...

PS: Wow, finished writing haha...

Requesting a monthly ticket.

Take care, everyone.
