On the image, it cannot be seen whether the puncture needle has entered a branch of the portal vein inside the liver.

But we must use the glossary term for puncture needle. Also maybe "portal vein" is portal vein (not in glossary, translate). "branch inside the liver" -> branch inside the liver.

Let's produce: "On the image, it cannot be seen whether the puncture needle has entered a branch of the portal vein inside the liver."

Check: "cannot be seen" -> cannot be seen. "whether it has entered a branch of the portal vein inside the liver" -> whether it has entered a branch of the portal vein inside the liver. Good.

Su Yun, however, had an inexplicable feeling; Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf's cooperation this time was seamless, hitting the mark perfectly.

Translate: "But Su Yun had a strange feeling; Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf Wagner's cooperation this time was seamless, hitting the mark perfectly!"

We need to use glossary: Su Yun, Zheng Ren, Professor Rudolf. Actually glossary has "Professor Rudolf". So we should use "Professor Rudolf". The Chinese: "Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf". So "Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf". Use "Professor Rudolf". Good.

"seamless, hitting the mark perfectly!" -> seamless, hitting the mark perfectly! Could translate as "seamless, a perfect shot!" but keep meaning.

Let's produce: "But Su Yun had a strange feeling; Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf's cooperation this time was seamless, hitting the mark perfectly!"

Thereafter, Zheng Ren began advancing the membrane-covered stent along the guidewire, confirming Su Yun's judgment.

Translate: "Afterwards, Zheng Ren began to advance the membrane-covered stent along the guidewire, confirming Su Yun's judgment."

Use Zheng Ren. "membrane-covered stent" -> membrane-covered stent. "guidewire" -> guidewire. "confirmed" -> confirmed.

Does this count as success?

Translate: "Does this count as success?"

It looks strange. If TIPS Surgery were this simple, it wouldn't even be considered the crown jewel of interventional procedures.

Translate: "It looks quite strange. If TIPS surgery were this simple, it wouldn't be considered the crown jewel of interventional procedures at all."

We need to use TIPS Surgery glossary. So "TIPS Surgery" -> TIPS Surgery.

"crown jewel of interventional procedures" -> crown jewel of interventional procedures.

Let's produce: "It looks quite strange. If TIPS Surgery were this simple, it wouldn't be considered the crown jewel of interventional procedures at all."

He glanced at his phone timer: 15 minutes 26 seconds.

Translate: "He lowered his head and glanced at the phone's timer: 15 minutes 26 seconds."

We need to keep numbers exactly. "15分26秒" -> "15 minutes 26 seconds". Could also keep as "15分26秒"? The instruction: reproduce numbers exactly as written. But we need to translate Chinese characters; numbers remain same. The Chinese "分" means minute, "秒" second. Should we translate? The instruction: "Render onomatopoeia / sound effects... as English sound words. Render numbers, dates, quantities, and measurements exactly as written." So we should keep the numbers as written, but the units are Chinese characters; we need to translate them? The instruction says numbers, dates, quantities, and measurements exactly as written. The units are part of measurement; they are Chinese characters representing units. Should we keep them as Chinese? Probably we should translate them to English because they are not numbers but words. However the instruction says "exactly as written" for numbers, dates, quantities, and measurements. The measurement includes the unit; but the unit is a Chinese word. Should we keep the Chinese characters? Usually we translate units. But the instruction says exactly as written, meaning we should not change the numbers themselves, but we can translate the unit words? It's ambiguous. In prior tasks, we usually translate the whole phrase, converting "15分26秒" to "15 minutes 26 seconds". I think that's correct.

Thus: "He lowered his head and glanced at the phone's timer: 15 minutes 26 seconds."

Su Yun quietly turned off his phone.

Translate: "Su Yun quietly turned off his phone."

Before, I thought Zheng Ren was the sort who could do TIPS surgery, but not very skilled—more a matter of luck.

Just give him 1000-2000 and that'll do.

But now I see, their reputation is huge; not to mention their surgical skill, even their assistants are damn top‑notch professors worldwide.

See what they say after the surgery, having the German professor help move patients.

If I hired a German professor to do the surgery, wouldn't I have to treat him like an ancestor and worship him? And still have him move patients—how could I dare say such a thing.

The situation has already surpassed Director Zhang's expectations, completely out of control.

As for how much money to give appropriately, he still wants to hear Director Xia's opinion on this matter.

「Give money? 」 Director Xia furrowed her brows; she also had no similar experience, after all, internal medicine rarely gets chances to invite professors for consultations, unlike surgery, where professors often come for Flying Knife.

「Yeah, you say how much money should I give Chief Zheng appropriately? 」 he said, and Director Zhang suddenly realized he had made another mistake.

「Right, if Chief Zheng goes to Eryuan for surgery, he wouldn't bring Professor Rudolf Wagner along, would he? 」

Bringing the German professor as an assistant……

Good heavens, Director Zhang never even dreamed of such a thing.
