Chapter 561: A Chance to Become Famous in One Battle!

Tong Bo cursed inwardly!

Dean Zheng had thrown a difficult problem at him!

However, as a doctor at a Grade A Tertiary Hospital in the province, Tong Bo still had some connections.

He hurried to his office, pulled out his chair, retrieved his address book from the drawer, scrolled down the list with his finger, locked onto the experts currently in Qiongjin, and dialed them one by one.

The first few either didn't pick up or simply refused.

"Professor Qiu, I'm sorry to disturb you so late."

"Little Tong, is there an emergency?"

"Yes, our hospital just admitted a patient with acute cerebral hemorrhage. The situation is extremely critical, and I would like to invite you over to help provide guidance!"

"Send the patient's condition to my email first. I'll take a look at the situation and then get back to you." Professor Qiu did not refuse outright.

Tong Bo apologized with a smile: "I will send the data to your email right away."

After waiting for about ten minutes, Tong Bo received a reply from Professor Qiu.

"Little Tong, the patient's condition is very bad. There is so much blood in the cranium, and the bleeding point is very deep. Even if the surgery is successful, the patient may become a vegetable."

"I share your opinion. However, the patient's family still wants to try. Also, I know the National Neurosurgery Conference is being held in Qiongjin."

"I can understand the family's feelings, but even if I go to the scene to see the patient, the conclusion will likely be the same. There is no need to make this extra trip." Professor Qiu politely refused.

"I've troubled you. I will explain the situation to the patient's family and do my best to counsel them," Tong Bo said with regret. "I wonder if you have time in the next two days? I would like to invite you to our hospital to perform a few teaching surgeries."

Professor Qiu smiled and said: "My schedule is too full. Let's talk about it later; there will be opportunities!"

After hanging up on Professor Qiu, Tong Bo called several other titans of the field, but they all gave similar answers in the end.

For a surgery with such high risk and such a low success rate, the average person would not take it.

It was a pity his mentor was not attending this academic conference; otherwise, he wouldn't have had to arrange for the Chief Physician below him to attend it.

His mentor was thousands of miles away, and the patient's surgery was imminent...

Helpless, Tong Bo found Dean Zheng with a bitter face and told him the truth: "Dean Zheng, I have contacted several top domestic experts. After reviewing the patient's case, they all gave the same reply: the surgical risk factor is too high, and they do not recommend surgery."

Dean Zheng stroked his chin and sighed helplessly: "The patient's eldest brother is a leader in the Provincial Military Region; we still have to find a way to serve them well."

Tong Bo said helplessly: "Dean Zheng, birth, old age, sickness, and death are things everyone must face. They won't change just because you are a wealthy person or a high-ranking official."

Dean Zheng sighed helplessly: "Fine, I will go report the truth to Leader Xiao."

Dean Zheng found Xiao Guangyi again and, in front of others, said with regret: "Director Tong just contacted several national experts, and they all stated that the difficulty of this surgery is too great to perform."

Xiao Guangyi glanced at Chen Lan: "The hospital has done its best!"

The flame of hope that had been ignited in Chen Lan was instantly extinguished, and she covered her mouth and wept bitterly.

Shen Mingcheng looked at Tang Ye with disdain and said sarcastically: "Some people are just self-righteous. After running around in circles, it was all for nothing!"

Chen Lan wiped her tears and said softly to Tang Ye: "Don't take his words to heart. I am very grateful that you are helping us find a way. With the replies from those experts, I have recognized the facts, and I have no regrets."

Xiao Qin defended Tang Ye: "Don't be discouraged. Tang Ye just contacted his father. His father is also trying to find a way to see if he can invite a top surgeon."

Shen Mingcheng sneered, thinking to himself: If even the Provincial People's Hospital can't invite a top expert, what can Tang Ye's father—a Vice President of a City Hospital—do? It's nothing more than a bit of psychological comfort.

"Why not just let Tang Ye's father perform this surgery! If he can perform this surgery, the surgeons at the Provincial People's Hospital would be outdone by him, and wouldn't he become famous in one battle!"

Shen Mingcheng mocked him mercilessly, but Tang Ye couldn't be bothered to pay attention to this petty person.

At this moment, his phone rang.

Tang Ye answered the phone: "Dad, we are at the entrance of the neurosurgery operating room. Where are you?"

"I have already arrived at the hospital. I will meet up with you in a moment." Tang Yu's tone was as serious and cold as ever.

A moment later, Tang Yu appeared in the Long Corridor, walking in front. Behind him followed several people, one of whom looked very old with sparse hair. Tang Yu's attitude was very respectful when he spoke to him.

Tong Bo saw the other person's face clearly, a look of surprise appearing in his eyes. He hurried up to meet them, a warm smile on his face, and took the initiative to reach out his hand: "Professor Cheng, why have you come?"

Professor Cheng was the Vice President of Yanjing Chang Geng Hospital and a world-renowned top scholar in neurosurgery.

The key was that Professor Cheng had a rather reclusive personality and rarely participated in various academic activities.

Now that he appeared at the Provincial People's Hospital, it truly felt like the place was honored by his presence.

"Little Tang said his relative is currently being rescued in the hospital due to an acute cerebral hemorrhage, and the difficulty is very high, so I came over."

Tong Bo said excitedly: "You are the number one person in the country in the field of acute cerebral infarction. If you are willing to perform this surgery, the success rate will definitely increase greatly."

Professor Cheng couldn't be bothered to waste words with Tong Bo and waved his hand: "Saving lives is urgent. Use the shortest time to hold a meeting and formulate a plan."

Tong Bo realized what was happening and said hurriedly: "I will immediately notify people to prepare the data, and I will take you to the conference room."

A group of doctors then entered the conference room.

Tong Bo muttered to himself, however, that given the patient's condition, even if they had brought Professor Cheng, it probably wouldn't work!

Dean Zheng found Xiao Guangyi and said with deep emotion: "Leader Xiao, Professor Cheng has brought a group of nationally famous experts to the hospital and is already discussing the surgical plan in the conference room. I didn't expect you to be so capable."

Xiao Guangyi was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself: This isn't his own capability, but rather that Tang Ye's father is a neurosurgeon and just happened to have this connection.

However, even though many experts had come, his sister was still lying on the hospital bed, her condition uncertain.

Xiao Guangyi suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

The Xiao Family could be considered a prominent family in Huai Province, but even with power and influence, one would still feel a deep sense of powerlessness in the face of illness.

Inside the conference room.

Professor Cheng presided over the meeting.

The medical circle is like this; it has always respected the strong. Sometimes, a surgery you think is as difficult as ascending to heaven might be trivial in the eyes of a master.

Professor Cheng's academic ability might not be as good as Professor Qiu's, but in terms of practical ability, he was at the same level as Professor Qiu, and perhaps even slightly ahead.

The discussion of the surgical plan concluded.

Professor Cheng said softly: "I will be the lead surgeon for this operation. Tang Yu will serve as the First Assistant, Zhan Bowen as the Second Assistant, and Tong Bo as the Third Assistant."

Tong Bo was somewhat surprised.

For a surgery of this level, one could tell the weight the lead surgeon placed on someone just by the arrangement of the assistants.

He had not expected that Tang Yu held such significant weight in Professor Cheng's heart.

It was only after Tang Yu began publishing some academic papers starting last year that he gained attention from the outside world.

A video of a skull base tumor surgery he performed had once received recognition from Professor Cheng.

Tang Yu's participation in this national academic conference was also by Professor Cheng's personal invitation.

Professor Cheng intended to use this surgery to test Tang Yu's on-site practical ability!
