Chapter 3135: line with translation of chapter title
Facing the live broadcast program, Director Pan, who was staying up late watching videos, heard the interpretation of the program guest in the live broadcast, took a sip of alcohol, and burst out laughing.
"It's so late, why aren't you sleeping?" Director Pan's lover shouted, "And you're drinking, even after being told not to."
"Zheng Ren this kid really dares to say that." Director Pan laughed, "Seeing the kids grow up always makes me happy; tonight, I'll quit drinking right away, quit drinking!"
"You always say you'll quit drinking, but when Zheng Ren and the others come back tomorrow, you'll definitely still be drinking!"
"It's different, do you know what Zheng Ren this kid said?"
"What can I say? From top to bottom, thanks all around; mainly it's the leader's support, otherwise we wouldn't have achieved today's results. Did he mention you? Director Pan, if he mentions you even once, that also shows Zheng Ren this kid has a conscience. But be honest, don't let your heart condition act up."
Director Pan curled his lip, "If he could talk like that, he wouldn't be my soldier."
"What did he say?"
"Zheng Ren said, it's meaningless, then later said it has supreme significance. This interpretation…… I think there's no problem."
"The significance of the Nobel Prize? You still say that nonsense?" Director Pan's lover shook her head.
"It has nothing to do with the Nobel Prize, it's about medicine. For people with the same income, our country's medical care is the best." Director Pan interpreted this from the perspective of a grassroots doctor.
"Can you stop bragging? Foreign countries all have free medical care. I heard that in India and Thailand, heart disease surgeries can be free."
"Hey! Just listen to them brag, brag hard."
"It sounds like you've been there yourself."
"Even just sitting at home I can guess that there's no place in the world that does better than us." Director Pan said.
"You'll work yourself to death, you old thing!"
"It's tiring, but I feel good inside. What free medical care? As long as they have breath, they won't treat you; their medical care mainly targets the elite. Under capitalism, money makes you the big boss; this certainly exists domestically too, but the benefits ordinary people can get are the greatest globally."
"And there are still so many medical disturbances."
"What to do? Everyone wants the best medical conditions, who doesn't want to live? Zheng Ren this kid is one, he's the most capable person I've ever seen! Earthquake relief……"
"Don't mention those, they're just free, with exceptionally good medical conditions. Just tell me, how many top-tier hospitals does our country have?"
"Domestically, hey! Those old capitalist countries are paper tigers; after a serious illness, only we can hold up." Director Pan said confidently.
"Don't talk nonsense, if another earthquake relief situation like this happens and you dare go to the front lines, I'll sell the house and go retire in Sanya. You old immortal, if you die outside it'll be peaceful, but if you come back you won't even have a home."
"Hehe." Director Pan wouldn't believe his lover's threat; he's been arguing all his life and won't take it seriously.
He poured himself another cup of alcohol, leisurely said, "Just now the host interpreted that Zheng Ren and the king said the Nobel Prize is fundamentally meaningless, but what he did has infinite significance. Winning the award, researching the most awesome drug, can ordinary people afford it? This kind of Tips Shou Bing, targeting the masses, has been ignored by the Nobel Prize for many years."
"This is the victory of ordinary people." Director Pan finally said firmly.
"It has nothing to do with you, hurry up and get ready to sleep! At your age, Zheng Ren said your illness from eating bamboo rat is just saving your life; you at least need to rest properly for half a year! Not allowing you to drink but you still do, you're the most disobedient patient."
Director Pan didn't refute either, he couldn't refute, just hehe laughed and gulped down the freshly poured alcohol.
……
Mu Tao was also watching the live broadcast.
Not getting the robotic arm can be said to be quite a regret. But Mu Tao isn't anxious; there will still be opportunities later. As for fame and profit, Mu Tao views them quite indifferently.
Zheng Lao Ban won the Nobel Prize, Mu Tao felt happy from the heart. During the earthquake relief in Pengxi Xiang's operating room, that was like a trench; seeing a comrade-in-arms who fought together win the Nobel Prize, Mu Tao was naturally happy.
Just……
Zheng Lao Ban's award ceremony seemed to have some minor glitches.
The Swedish king stood at one corner of the cursor, but Zheng Lao Ban turned and walked away; from his lip movements, Mu Tao seemed to see Zheng Lao Ban say "everything."
What does that mean?
Soon, the supporters and guests in the live broadcast room gave an explanation.
After understanding what they said, Mu Tao had his own thoughts. It was nothing like the experts' interpretation; Mu Tao's gaze fell on each real patient.
Medical treatment, success or failure, is a probability issue. Even the most skilled doctor won't be 100% successful, but now society demands doctors be 100% successful, which is undoubtedly absurd.
But this absurdity, from the patient's perspective, is so easy to understand.
Everyone hopes to be the lucky one, able to leave the hospital quickly, well, and inexpensively, and never have to go back.
Therefore, for those failed patients, all medical means are meaningless. This is what Zheng Lao Ban meant by "meaningless," something only a true clinical doctor would say.
And that final sentence with supreme significance means that all treatment methods are of great significance to patients who recover and leave the hospital.
Not to mention anything else, just during the earthquake relief I performed dozens of pelvic fracture interventional embolization surgeries; if those dozens of patients hadn't received treatment, even with plenty of blood products, they likely wouldn't have survived.
Embolizing the bleeding artery, stopping the blood, then proceeding with treatment elsewhere—that's where the significance lies.
Zheng Lao Ban simply expressed the two layers of meaning—meaningless and supremely significant—through two words; this is a clinical doctor's understanding of the term "saving lives and healing the wounded."
Mu Tao thought and thought, then smiled slightly.
Zheng Lao Ban appeared honest and aloof, but inside he was overly sympathetic. How could he say it's meaningless? His standards for himself are simply too high; there are many patients he can't cure, otherwise there wouldn't be deaths in the world.
Yet he thinks those medical means are meaningless; only Zheng Lao Ban would dare say that, I wouldn't.
Recalling every scene in the Apricot Grove Garden Surgery Live Broadcast Room, recalling learning Tips Shou Bing with Zheng Lao Ban, he truly performed surgery without any mistakes.
Mu Tao thought and thought, then rewound the video to the moment Zheng Lao Ban turned around.
He held a certificate in one hand and a box in the other, both hands making a fist gesture, corners of his mouth slightly raised, everything!
What we do has supreme significance! Mu Tao felt he could clearly sense what Zheng Lao Ban meant.
