Chapter 2677

2579.2480 Documentary (Part 2) (Alliance Assertion Lin Min extra chapter 3)

The picture became clear again, and the person appearing on the screen was Liu Xu zhi.

"I am Liu Xu zhi, a radiology doctor in the remote Xilin Town. Now I work in hepatobiliary surgery in Di Du..."

Liu Xu zhi was obviously not used to speaking in front of the camera; he gave a brief self-introduction, then scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

He lowered his head, then, after a reminder from the cameraman, raised it again.

"The first time I met Zheng Lao Ban was during the earthquake relief, at Pengxi Township Hospital. I used to watch surgery live broadcasts; at first it wasn't Zheng Lao Ban performing, but later the broadcaster disappeared, and Xinglin Yuan began contacting Zheng Lao Ban."

"Never mind that, never mind that. When I first saw Zheng Lao Ban, I always thought his surgery was poor. Actually it was just a preconception; back then I especially admired the doctors at Xinglin Yuan who did the surgery live broadcasts."

"But my skill wasn't enough to assist Zheng Lao Ban; a surgery took fifteen minutes, and I just stood there watching. Later I went to another operating room to assist Professor Mu and Yun Ge'er."

"Well, put it this way, Zheng Lao Ban's surgical skill is very high—how high? I don't even have the qualifications to assist him."

Liu Xu zhi spoke frankly and sincerely.

But whenever facing the camera lens, he always felt a bit embarrassed, his head slightly lowered, like a shy child.

"Well, I don't have much to say. I'm just an ordinary doctor; when I was in Xilin Town, my greatest daily pleasure was watching surgery live broadcasts."

"I learned surgery from watching live broadcasts; then one day a patient with intestinal bleeding needed a hospital-wide consultation. I thought, I'd seen this in the surgery live broadcasts, so I collaborated with the General Surgery Department doctors—first embolize, then resect—and the patient was saved."

"My skill is lacking; compared to the earlier broadcast surgeons or Zheng Lao Ban, I'm far behind."

"The most I can do now is a gastric fundus and left gastric artery embolization procedure. This surgical technique was improved with the help of Zheng Lao Ban and Yun Ge'er, and it was recently published in the Willow Leaf Blade journal."

When Liu Xu zhi said this, an introduction to the Willow Leaf Blade journal appeared below the screen, silently doing science popularization.

World-class major academic journals, when Liu Xu zhi says them out loud, are like street tabloids. If it weren't for the introduction, probably many people wouldn't think anything of it.

The competition also seems to include a medical team from Johns Hopkins Hospital; their level is definitely higher than mine, but not as high as Zheng Lao Ban and Yun Ge'er. I'm just the one up front doing the work—if we really compare academic ability, it definitely still has to be Zheng Lao Ban and Yun Ge'er.

You ask me what my impression of Zheng Lao Ban is? Let me think for a moment.

The impression? At first, he was young and in good health. In the two Shujian in Pengxi Xiang, Professor Mu, Yun Ge'er, and I three of us took turns resting. But Zheng Lao Ban, by himself in one Shujian, did Shou Bing for three days and three nights.

Not easy, not easy—just transporting patients in Pengxi Xiang gave Director Jiang a heart attack.

Later I invited Zheng Lao Ban to my side… right, besides in Pengxi Xiang, the deepest impression I have is when I had a heart attack, and Zheng Lao Ban and Yun Ge'er treated me via video.

It was still a bit cold then; I wanted to quit my job and go to Di Du. Possibly due to the weather plus emotional fluctuation, I suddenly had a heart attack. I thought that if I just lay down, the earliest I'd be found would be tomorrow morning. My hometown isn't like Di Du—there's always someone around, no matter the time. It's sparsely populated, desolate, and a bit remote.

I wasn't afraid, just regretful. But in between life and death I suddenly thought of Zheng Lao Ban and gave him a call.

I wasn't wondering whether, if we did a live-stream emergency rescue, Xinglin Yuan might get a subsidy. My family is poor; if we saved a little money, my wife's life could be easier. The tuition for my eldest child…

As he spoke, Liu Xu zhi seemed to return to that cold night.

His voice sounded a bit stiff, as if even now the memory could still let him feel the breath of death.

Back then Zheng Lao Ban told me not to rush; hearing his voice, my emotions eased a little. I desperately walked into the interventional operating room, then I directly got onto the operating table.

No, no, interventional surgery requires consumables; we originally had an interventional doctor, but later he went to a private hospital in the city. Does our town's Hospital pay little? Making a living isn't easy.

Oh oh, I went off topic. When I lay on the operating table, I followed Zheng Lao Ban's instructions to perform self‑emergency care, including doing the catheter‑thrombolysis Shou Bing on myself.

Later the livestream became Yun Ge'er's; I lay dazed on the operating table in the operating room, and I can still remember his singing voice.

It wasn't lacking solemnity—Zheng Lao Ban rushed over to perform Shou Bing on me, and Yun Ge'er had to soothe my emotions. As I said before, my Shou Bing skill is quite average; the catheter‑thrombolysis procedure is also a makeshift solution, and in the end I still had to wait for Zheng Lao Ban to come.

Well, after Zheng Lao Ban came, the Shou Bing was done. Look, I now wear Lead clothing every day to do Shou Bing, and my body is fine.

Speaking, Liu Xu zhi gave a simple, honest laugh.

Zheng Lao Ban will definitely win the Nobel Prize—there's no doubt about that. Liu Xu zhi answered Sun Zeli's question with considerable confidence.

The picture gradually faded, the figure became blurry, but Liu Xu zhi's simple, honest smile seemed to linger in everyone's hearts, hard to forget for a long time.

【The medical industry is very tough, but interventional doctors bear even greater pressure than other doctors. Compared with colleagues in other departments, interventional doctors' incidence of skin damage increases more than fourfold, neck, back, and knee ailments increase nearly sixfold, and cataracts increase nearly fivefold.】

The clacking of the keys was clear and heavy; each number was so shocking.

【What we see is the numbers and records of each Shou Bing, while the doctors who complete the Shou Bing are treating patients with their lives. The heavy lead clothing gradually damages the doctors' cervical and lumbar vertebrae; radiation erodes their bodies.】

【They are angels, while bearing the heavy workload they also continually strive to make Progress.】

【Zheng Ren Doctor Zheng is one of them; he silently performs the heavy Shou Bing. Such things happen every day in every corner around us.】

【This is the first episode of the Hua Shi TV documentary series "Story Behind the Nobel Prize." Thank you for watching. In the next episode we will interview more people, from different angles recounting the legendary experiences of Zheng Ren Doctor Zheng.】

The camera focuses on a chair in the 912 interventional doctor's office; Zheng Ren sits on it, and the afternoon sunlight streams in, as if it had cast a thick halo around him.
