Chapter 2563: with translation of chapter title

Zhou Chun Yong quietly watched television.

Inside the television screen, a flashlight shone on Zheng Ren's face, casting an unusual glow.

"Chunyong, you'd better not say it, but Boss Zheng actually won the Nobel Prize. If you're talking about this guy, he's just talented." Zhou Chun Yong's lover said while chatting, "Aren't you going to congratulate him?"

"There's nothing to congratulate about." Zhou Chun Yong said, "These days, the people around Boss Zheng are definitely swamped."

"Doing nothing at all seems not right."

"How can you do nothing at all?" Zhou Chun Yong said, "Boss Zheng is a sensible person; he knows what I, Old Zhou, have done. People say he doesn't tolerate nonsense, appears honest and simple, but is actually quite shrewd."

"What have you done?"

"Is the Nobel Prize that easy to win? Boss Zheng got Lanke's support, cast a net worldwide, and sent him ready-made doctors. But before anyone else moved, I pulled out all the stops to rustle up doctors for him—my efforts were faster than even Director Kong of 912."

"For such a big deal, your little favor probably isn't enough. Besides, we still owe Boss Zheng a favor."

"Not owing a favor isn't scary; what's scary is losing touch forever. I went there a few days ago; Boss Zheng likes quietness, so I'll go see him in a few days to see if we can meet for a meal or something."

"If you come to my place for a meal, I'll rustle up a few of my signature dishes."

"Hey." Zhou Chun Yong shook his head. "Come to my place for a meal? I can't manage it, not even Director Yan likely could. In the whole capital, only Director Kong and Liu Xu zhi from the opposite ward could."

Just thinking about Liu Xu zhi makes Zhou Chun Yong furious.

Boss Zheng too—what's the point of throwing Liu Xu zhi over to Zhu Liangchen's side? It would be better to have him on our side; it's just a staff position, not a big deal.

To be honest, Zhu Liangchen only got where he is thanks to Director Kong's patronage; I need to figure out how to lure Liu Xu zhi over.

He quietly watched the television screen, pondering matters concerning Liu Xu zhi.

"Chunyong, what are you thinking about?"

"Boss Zheng is righteous; during the earthquake relief, he met a young doctor from Xilin Town. The last time he inserted a urinary catheter for a child, they had just returned from performing surgery in Xilin Town."

"And then?"

"This isn't just Zhu Liangchen riding on Director Kong's coattails; that young doctor came to the capital, and Zhu Liangchen got him a staff position, so he stayed on Zhu's side."

"..." Zhou Chun Yong's lover stared for a moment, "When did staff positions in the capital become as worthless as cabbage?"

It seems a doctor connected to Boss Zheng isn't satisfied with just a staff position.

We shouldn't dwell on this; the more we think about it, the scarier it gets.

"I'm just thinking about how to turn this around," Zhou Chun Yong said resentfully, "We can't let Zhu Liangchen's smugness last too long."

"Haven't everyone gone to the opposite ward?"

Zhou Chun Yong said nothing, watched the brief news segment on TV end and return to the previous program, his mind preoccupied with thoughts.

Having dealt with Zhu Liangchen's scoundrel, we absolutely cannot let him stay so smug!

…… -> none.

…… -> none.

Modu, Pei Yingjie sat silently in the hotel private room watching the TV screen.

Today, Lan Ke's manufacturer invited guests, and Pei Yingjie brought Han Guang Zhi to attend the banquet.

Just as they were halfway through eating, Zheng Lao Ban's news of winning the Nobel Prize spread in various WeChat groups. By the time they turned on the TV and found the news channel, the special broadcast had already ended.

Fortunately, it's all internet TV, so finding a news segment isn't difficult.

The manufacturer's Manager immediately called the waitstaff to start looking; for this few-minute broadcast, Pei Yingjie went back and forth, watching it for a full half hour.

"Teacher, you..." Han Guang Zhi asked softly.

"Little Zhi, earlier I said to let you go to Zheng Lao Ban's place; you have the same temper as Yao Wu." Pei Yingjie sighed and said.

Han Guang Zhi lowered his head slightly, not speaking, but after all he's young; the stubbornness of a youth is fully evident.

Pei Yingjie knows what temper these few favored disciples of his have, and he didn't bother to persuade them much.

"Teacher, I think the project that Wu Ge is doing at Hopkins has good prospects." Han Guang Zhi said softly, "When he returns, once the Shou Bing matures, he'll also have his own domain."

He didn't say the rest, but Pei Yingjie knew that having his own domain meant he wouldn't have to rely on others.

"Prospects... I asked today, his paper was rejected by the Willow Leaf Blade." Pei Yingjie said lightly.

"Ah?" Han Guang Zhi raised his head, somewhat surprised.

"Do you know why?" Pei Yingjie asked.

"Is it because the number of Shou Bing cases isn't enough? Or because the post-Shou Bing effects still need observation?" Han Guang Zhi frowned, asking in confusion.

"Not." Pei Yingjie said: "It's because someone domestically is doing a similar project, comparing them, Yao Wu... I read the latest Willow Leaf Blade, Yao Wu's article is inferior across the board by one tier."

"..." Han Guang Zhi was stunned; he couldn't believe everything the Teacher said was true.

Pei Yingjie also didn't speak, but was watching the interview footage on the internet TV, his gaze somewhat complex.

"Teacher, impossible." Han Guang Zhi insisted: "Domestically, no one is heard of doing this Interventional Surgery project; even if someone does, besides Zheng Lao Ban, no one would do it better than Wu Ge. Moreover, Wu Ge is at Hopkins, where the technical strength is strong."

"Indeed, not someone from the mainstream medical circle." Pei Yingjie said: "It's a doctor from a cosmetic medical hospital who did it."

"..."

This time Han Guang Zhi was even more sighing and speechless.

Cosmetic medical hospital, does that even count as a Hospital? Perhaps there might be one in the future, but currently over 90% of domestic cosmetic medicine is fraudulent.

"I inquired a bit; it's that cosmetic medical hospital where Director Kong of 912 holds shares."

"Director Kong did it?"

"Not, it's a doctor from the Radiology Department that Zheng Lao Ban found in the remote Xilin Town..." Saying this, Pei Yingjie couldn't help but sigh.

What the hell is all this!

Zheng Lao Ban is strong, that's undeniable. At this time last year, when I went to Hai Cheng, I could see he was a piece of unpolished jade.

Regardless of whether Zheng Lao Ban is strong or weak, they plucked a Radiology Department doctor from a small hospital in the outskirts, and from the academic field they crushed his favored disciples.

This gap is all-around.

Han Guang Zhi lightly moved his lips, not speaking. His white teeth bit his lower lip, as if thinking about something.

"Xiao Zhi, you look at Wen Shun, actually your heart is too stubborn, more stubborn than Yao Wu." Pei Yingjie said: "Put it this way, last year I gave Zheng Lao Ban an opportunity; now I see that without me, I can't suppress him. This is more or less a favor; in the future, you should think carefully about how you will proceed, then come find me."

Han Guang Zhi watched the screen, where Zheng Lao Ban in an isolation gown was outlined by rings of light from the flash, and gradually he fell into a daze.
