2602.2503 Academician's Arrival (Alliance Leader Instant Noodle Airplane Bonus Chapter 5)

Lin Ge nodded, glanced at Feng Xu Hui, then walked out of the Shujian and came to the operation room.

He looked around, not watching the Shou Bing, but picked up a chair, silently walked outside the operation room, and silently sat down.

The technician stared dumbfounded.

When Lin Ge worked in the Medical Department before, although he presented himself as a kindly old man, whenever clinical matters required seeking Lin Ge, it was always when a mistake had been made—guilty and nervous, even a good temper was useless; no one dared to look him straight in the eye.

Just like an ordinary official facing the Embroidered Uniform Guard, this is a natural attribute.

Once upon a time, seeing Lin Ge dragging a small stool to sit outside and watch the door, Zheng Lao Ban's mightiness came to mind for the technician.

……

……

Two hours ago.

When the Surgery live broadcast was about to begin, at the Xinglin Yuan headquarters, Peng Jia stood anxiously at the company gate welcoming the experts who had come today to oversee the Surgery live broadcast.

Although the Xinglin Yuan he founded himself had its control forcibly taken away, Peng Jia felt little resentment, knowing this was something one must endure to survive.

The core Technique is in people's hands—that's the hard truth. The forum model is no longer suited to the times and will be gradually phased out.

Cliff Uncle, who once brought the forum to its peak, failed to go public due to an unclear profit model and has now declined into a sorry state.

Xinglin Yuan in Peng Jia's hands also cannot escape this predicament.

Regarding the Surgery live broadcast, I can see the business opportunity but cannot act on it—that's what "eyes high, hands low" means.

Peng Jia agrees with this point; although his equity has decreased, his dividends have increased a lot, which is already enough.

Especially as Zheng Lao Ban won the Nobel Prize, the paid viewership of the Surgery Livestream Room has kept rising; if this trend continues, Xinglin Yuan's survival will be no problem within one to two years.

As for what comes after that, Peng Jia feels he can't see clearly and is too lazy to think about it.

But since yesterday, when he learned that Zheng Lao Ban really intended to operate on that late-stage cancer patient, Peng Jia has been in a state of anxiety and unease.

Zheng Lao Ban performing a Shou Bing is quite ordinary and nothing special. But when Peng Jia saw the uploaded medical records and images, he was utterly stunned.

He contacted Ning Shu and solemnly expressed his opinion on this matter.

Regarding the Shou Bing treatment and live broadcast for late-stage cancer patients, Peng Jia firmly does not approve.

But his request was rejected by Ning Shu.

Zheng Ren is a doctor; he knows in his heart which Shou Bing should and shouldn't be done. Don't let laypeople interfere with professionals—just do the Surgery live broadcast well and prepare a contingency plan for how to handle Shou Bing failure.

These were Ning Shu's exact words; upon hearing them, Peng Jia felt a chill run through his heart.

I have no say—this is exactly because I lack authority. Do you not know how difficult the Shou Bing is? Zheng Lao Ban can do whatever he wants; without supervision or regulation, he's free to perform whatever Shou Bing he pleases.

However, Peng Jia also has no better recourse; the work that needs to be done must still be done, after all, for Peng Jia this job is not merely a way to earn money but also a career.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have had his eyes light up at the sight of the Surgery live broadcast, and directly after the Earthquake Relief effort ended, he would have invited Zheng Lao Ban to do the broadcast.

The discrepancy in concepts is merely a minor issue; Peng Jia consoles himself thus.

To expand publicity and influence, Xinglin Yuan invites relevant experts to attend whenever there is a major Surgery live broadcast.

But as Zheng Lao Ban won the Nobel Prize, it has become easier to invite people, and the caliber of the invited experts keeps getting higher.

This time the invitees include experts from endocrinology, vascular surgery, and Orthopedics Department.

A single Shou Bing involving three different fields—how reliable is that? Peng Jia keeps worrying about it.

Ning Shu said not to let laypeople interfere with professionals; if it were a different Shou Bing, Peng Jia would definitely agree that this statement is correct.

But now Peng Jia holds a reserved opinion on this.

The heads of endocrinology and vascular surgery arrived first; behind Peng Jia, a vice president escorted the two directors to the meeting room.

Peng Jia anxiously awaited the arrival of Director Yang from the renowned Orthopedics Department hospital in Modu.

Ten minutes before the Surgery live broadcast began, a Mercedes-Benz pulled up steadily at the door. Peng Jia immediately put on a smile, understanding that internal company conflicts must not affect the company's overall image.

He smiled as he prepared to open the car door.

But before he could reach the car, the front door opened and Director Yang stepped out himself.

"Director Yang, you've arrived." Peng Jia greeted him with a cheerful smile.

Director Yang nodded but ignored Peng Jia's outstretched hand; instead, he respectfully opened the rear door, shielding it with his right hand to prevent anyone inside from bumping their head when getting out.

Peng Jia's heart skipped a beat; seeing this, he sensed someone more important was present. But Director Yang is a leading figure in domestic Orthopedics Department—who could command such respect? Could it be…?

An elderly, frail old man stepped out of the car; Director Yang supported his arm and told Peng Jia, "Teacher takes a keen interest in Zheng Lao Ban, having heard that Xinglin Yuan has a Surgery live broadcast today, he came to take a look."

"Academician Shen!" Peng Jia hadn't expected such a great scholar to show up uninvited; he was momentarily stunned.

As it turns out, whenever Xinglin Yuan holds any event, they invite doctors from the relevant departments to attend—this also counts as a form of publicity. However, only department heads are usually invited; those of higher rank are rarely persuaded to come.

This Shou Bing, riding on the prestige of Zheng Lao Ban's Nobel Prize, encounters almost no resistance when inviting people. Upon hearing that the Shou Bing to be broadcast is of such high difficulty and that the operator is Zheng Lao Ban, who just won the Nobel Prize, the invitees all readily agreed.

But Peng Jia truly never expected to have Academician Shen of that stature invited, let alone that he would come uninvited.

He wasn't flattered; instead, the instant he saw Academician Shen, it felt like a bolt of lightning striking his head, leaving him completely dazed.

Peng Jia knows the difficulty of today's Shou Bing. But if he botches it in front of Academician Shen, how will he ever face anyone again?

While he was still dazed, Academician Shen walked over, smiling and extending his hand: "Manager Peng, hello."

The old man was very amiable, like a spring breeze, not arrogant like some department heads.

"Shen Lao, Shen Lao, I didn't expect your august presence; I was momentarily taken aback, sorry." Peng Jia hastily bowed, clasping Academician Shen's hands and gently shaking them twice.

"I'm an uninvited guest, no need for such courtesy," Academician Shen said amiably, "I've looked at the case—Zheng Lao Ban is pushing the limits. Young man, you have courage."

In an instant, Peng Jia didn't know what to say. He hadn't expected Academician Shen to be so amiable, seeming like an elder of the household. He could only rely on instinct to utter a couple of polite remarks, lowering his head as he ushered Shen Lao into the company building.
