Chapter 585: with translation of chapter title

Gao Shaojie was also somewhat surprised, but unconsciously, he felt an inexplicable feeling toward Zheng Ren.

Zheng Ren resolved the incident silently, and Gao Shaojie felt it was only natural. He couldn't explain why, just felt that way. As his own boss, this little thing certainly wouldn't be a problem for him.

After comforting the patient, Gao Shaojie continued to see the last two cases, then packed up and left work.

"Old Gao, how do you address Teacher Zheng as boss?" Hu Hai asked while walking down the pitch-black hallway.

"The boss will soon have his own research center and also national-level research funding; if not calling him boss, what else would you call him?" Gao Shaojie laughed: "Moreover, Professor Rudolf Wagner of Heidelberg University is also called boss, and if I called him teacher, it would feel somewhat distant."

Actually, Gao Shaojie still had something he hadn't said.

He is somewhat of an old-fashioned type, yet mixed with new culture and new thinking. Little Qiu boss, little Yu boss—just hearing those names feels cool.

However, Gao Shaojie did not voice that thought.

After all, Little Zheng boss is not in the opera trade; he deals with healing the dead and reviving white bones.

Hu Hai joked a few sentences, and everyone returned to the Intervention Department.

Li Jianguo had been swamped; to prepare for the recent large batch of TIPS surgery patients, he hadn't returned to the dormitory to sleep for three days.

With insufficient manpower, we can only treat men like livestock; there's nothing anyone can do about it.

However, as long as Teacher Gao gives a few pointers, mastering the TIPS surgery technique will guarantee a livelihood for life, and Li Jianguo knows this.

Moreover, Teacher Gao especially advocates the ten-thousand-hour rule.

Li Jianguo also agrees with this.

The ten-thousand-hour rule is a principle pointed out by writer Gladwell in his book Outliers.

"The reason geniuses appear extraordinary in people's eyes is not due to supernatural talent, but to continuous effort; ten thousand hours of forging is a necessary condition for anyone to go from ordinary to world‑master."

He called this the "ten-thousand-hour rule."

Li Jianguo knows his talent is average; if he doesn't put in great effort, leaving Teacher Gao's tutelage will quickly make him just an ordinary person.

Although he has food to eat, he still wants to eat better; who wouldn't want to swap daily radish and cabbage for mountain delicacies and seafood?

It's only ten thousand hours, Li Jianguo calculated: if he devotes ten hours a day, he could reach it in just over a thousand days.

Moreover, studying under Teacher Gao means the direction is correct, so there's no doubt about going astray.

Three plus years of time—not too long, not too short—no matter what, one must see it through.

When Gao Shaojie brought Zheng Ren back to the Intervention Department, Li Jianguo was organizing the data for tomorrow's surgery patients.

Seeing Gao Shaojie enter, he quickly rose to his feet with a solemn expression.

"Jianguo, bring the patient's films." Gao Shaojie ordered directly.

Li Jianguo promptly picked up a stack of films from beside the computer, went to the viewer, and said, "Teacher Gao, this is the first patient's films."

The films were tied with discarded surgical thread and had a label attached.

Zheng Ren nodded, and Li Jianguo then inserted the patient's pre‑admission films, followed by placing the bag of the liver's nuclear magnetic resonance diffusion films on top.

After doing all that, he began to report the patient's condition, and unnoticed, he quietly stepped back one step to stand behind and to the side of Gao Shaojie.

The films showed a typical presentation of end‑stage liver cirrhosis; nevertheless, Zheng Ren stared at them for nearly a minute before removing the patient's liver nuclear magnetic resonance diffusion film and placing it on the viewer.

Li Jianguo swiftly gathered up the films.

After all, there are many patients' films to review; if one is inattentive and mixes up the film bags, it could lead to viewing another patient's films during surgery…

Such things have indeed happened before.

Not long ago, the Medical University Affiliated Hospital of the provincial capital also had such an incident.

The urology department was preparing a nephrectomy; the surgical preparations were in order, and the lead surgeon hadn't forgotten to double‑check the films before the operation.

But… the film inserted in the viewer in the operating room was from the previous patient…

In the end, a tragedy occurred.

The incident caused quite an uproar; although Li Jianguo wasn't the party involved, he kept all the mistakes in mind.

Gao Shaojie is very rigorous; to gain his approval, one must not overlook any detail.

I may not understand the liver's magnetic resonance diffusion, but some menial tasks must be done cleanly and neatly.

Zheng Ren looked at the magnetic resonance diffusion, and after a minute asked, "Old Gao, where do you think the puncture should be made?"

"Here." Gao Shaojie took a pen from his white coat pocket and, without hesitation, marked the spot on the film.

Zheng Ren smiled and nodded.

Gao Shaojie's growth speed is truly fast.

For this film, Gao Shaojie examined it no fewer than ten times, repeatedly rehearsing and calculating the position, using dozens of sheets of A4 paper just for the calculations.

Finally, the conclusion he reached gave him confidence.

Yet, standing beside Zheng Ren and saying that point with full confidence, Gao Shaojie still felt a bit nervous.

He believed he had preliminarily grasped the calculation essentials for the TIPS surgery puncture point, although he wasn't as proficient as Boss Zheng, nor did he have that gorgeous female‑like assistant under Boss Zheng who is a prodigy and can see it at a glance; he still needs to calculate.

But Gao Shaojie knows that he has, after all, stepped into that threshold.

He feared that if he made a mistake, the blow to his self‑confidence would be too great.

However, fortunately, at the moment Zheng Ren nodded, Gao Shaojie almost burst into tears.

Success!

I really have mastered it!

Zheng Ren then briefly explained the technical points, removed the film, and began with the next patient.

All of this was, in fact, within Hu Hai's expectations.

But when he saw Zheng Ren reviewing the films as immovable as a mountain, while Gao Shaojie appeared as anxious as a junior doctor, he still felt a bit dazed.

No matter how highly one might estimate him, in the end one discovers that one has still underestimated this Little Zheng boss.

He flipped through the films one after another, and it took over an hour to finish viewing them all.

After viewing the films, he went to see the patients, comparing them one by one and committing them to memory.

All done, it's already nearly six in the Evening.

"Boss, thank you for your hard work." After seeing the last patient, Gao Shaojie said sincerely.

Actually, if Zheng Ren were to look at it himself, it wouldn't take this much time at all.

A lot of time is 'wasted' on my own study.

"It's fine." Zheng Ren said lightly while picking up his phone.

"Boss, let's go eat together." Gao Shaojie said matter-of-factly.

Zheng Ren stared at Xie Yiren's WeChat message on his phone for a moment.

【I'm waiting for you at the entrance of Inpatient Ward Three, red Volvo.】

Why is it a red Volvo again? Zheng Ren wondered. Xie Yiren didn't come by car, did she?

This feeling… it's as if I've returned to Hai Cheng, about to go to the D area of the underground.

Zheng Ren, hearing Gao Shaojie speak, felt a bit embarrassed and said: "Old Gao, Old Hu, I have something on my end, so I won't join you for dinner."

……

Yesterday, Alliance Leader ynaB gave a reward; I was afraid I'd gotten confused…… If I really mess up the order with an extra chapter, Alliance Leader, please don't blame me.

I'll note it down here.

Alliance Leader pointlessly fighting — Sect Leader origins and endings, fate self-caused — Alliance Leader Oolong Iron Guanyin — Alliance Leader self-drawn flush — Alliance Leader radish doesn't love eating you — Alliance Leader lunar_coco — Alliance Leader ynaB — Sect Leader reader 161220022737474.

Also, the Silver Grand Alliance still has two Alliance Leader rewards, which should be after Alliance Leader ynaB; please excuse me, Sir Li Yifei.

It seems…… I owe a lot of debt.
