Chapter 801 Chen Yang's Connections
Chapter 801 Chen Yang's Connections
In June in Shen City, the scorching sun mercilessly burned the earth, and the air was filled with a restless breath, as if even breathing was wrapped in the scorching temperature.
"Shen City is much hotter than our Jinjiang City."
After Chen Yang and Chen Xingwu completed the check-in procedures, they took a short rest in the hotel lobby.
The lobby was bustling with people, medical experts and scholars from all over the world gathered here, and conversations in different languages came one after another, interweaving into an international academic melody, vividly demonstrating the high-end and professional nature of this international conference on hepatic surgery.
Compared with the 6th Traditional Chinese Medicine Exchange Conference held in Lingnan some time ago, this international hepatic surgery conference in Shen City, on the surface, is undoubtedly more high-end and grand in scale.
After all, in the current medical field, there is indeed a gap in scale and influence between Chinese medicine conferences and Western medicine conferences.
Western medicine surgery conferences are especially popular because they are often supported by many medical device manufacturers. Conferences in the fields of hepatic and cardiac surgery are more commercial in nature. This Shanghai International Conference on Hepatic Surgery not only brought together the top domestic hepatobiliary surgery experts, but also attracted many internationally renowned scholars. It can be called a top medical event.
Not far from Chen Yang and Chen Xingwu, several foreign experts in neat suits were gathered together, discussing the information in their hands with great concentration, gesturing and nodding from time to time; the domestic experts nearby were also communicating in low voices, occasionally bursting into hearty laughter, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.
"Doctor Chen, this conference is really full of experts!" Chen Xingwu looked at the crowd around him, his eyes full of emotion, and couldn't help but say to Chen Yang.
This opportunity to attend the conference was thanks to Gao Tiancheng's agreement. Otherwise, Chen Xingwu's qualifications would not have qualified him to step into the door of this international event.
As a newcomer attending such a high-level academic conference for the first time, Chen Xingwu was filled with excitement and anticipation. Being in the same room with so many authoritative experts in the same field was undoubtedly a rare learning opportunity for him.
“Director Zhong, isn’t that Director Zhong!” Suddenly, Chen Xingwu pointed at a middle-aged doctor not far away and said to Chen Yang with surprise in his tone.
The middle-aged man not far away was Zhong Dongyang from the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery at Jingdu Hospital, who was well-known in the industry. The reason why Chen Xingwu mentioned Zhong Dongyang to Chen Yang was because he had heard Chen Yang mention that the two had performed an operation together.
"Xiao Chen?" Zhong Dongyang was talking to a few people beside him. After the conversation ended, he looked around inadvertently and his eyes fell on Chen Yang not far away, and Chen Yang was also looking at him at this time.
"Director Zhong!" Chen Yang immediately stood up and greeted Zhong Dongyang with a polite smile on his face. Seeing this, Chen Xingwu beside him also hurriedly stood up, looking a little nervous and reserved.
"Xiao Chen, I didn't expect to meet you here." Zhong Dongyang said with a smile, his tone sounding familiar.
Zhong Dongyang was so polite to Chen Yang for a complicated reason. On the one hand, Chen Yang was indeed very talented and showed his outstanding ability when he performed the operation with him; but more importantly, Chen Yang was Wen Xiuping's grandson-in-law.
In the academic circle, identity, background and strength are equally important. This special relationship is the key to Zhong Dongyang's initiative to greet Chen Yang. After all, as the chief physician of Jingdu Hospital, if he didn't have this connection, how could he easily pay attention to a young doctor who had just started out?
"Director Zhong." Chen Xingwu's voice trembled with excitement. He didn't expect that Chen Yang really knew this big shot in the field of hepatobiliary surgery.
"Director Zhong, this is Director Chen Xingwu from the hepatobiliary surgery department of our hospital. I am here to learn from Director Chen." Chen Yang introduced to Zhong Dongyang with a smile.
"Haha, not bad, you are young and promising!" Zhong Dongyang said perfunctorily with a smile.
In Zhong Dongyang's eyes, Chen Yang was worthy of more communication due to his special background. As for Chen Xingwu, he just responded politely.
However, even such a simple perfunctory response made Chen Xingwu excited: "Director Zhong, thank you for your praise. I mainly learn from Doctor Chen."
After a few greetings, Zhong Dongyang was called away by other experts.
Looking at Zhong Dongyang's departing back, Chen Xingwu could not hide his excitement and said to Chen Yang: "Director Zhong is a leading figure in the field of hepatobiliary surgery. He is extremely accomplished in liver transplantation and complex liver surgery. It's all thanks to you that I was able to talk to him this time!"
"You're welcome, Director Chen." Chen Yang responded with a smile. He completely understood Chen Xingwu's feelings at the moment. Zhong Dongyang's position in hepatobiliary surgery was as important as Mo Xinzhi and others in the medical field. Anyone would be excited to be able to get close to such an industry authority.
In the evening, Chen Yang received a message from Lin Yi and Xia Hongliang, and learned that they had arrived near the hotel. Chen Yang and Chen Xingwu immediately went to the hotel entrance to wait, and soon saw Lin Yi and Xia Hongliang walking quickly.
"Doctor Chen, welcome to Shen City!" Lin Yi greeted warmly from a distance with a hearty smile on his face.
"Haha, sorry to have kept you waiting!" Chen Yang stepped forward and shook hands with Lin Yi and Xia Hongliang one by one.
"Let's go find a place to have a good gathering. Director Lin and I have already booked a restaurant." Xia Hongliang suggested enthusiastically.
Speaking of which, Chen Yang has met Lin Yi and Xia Hongliang quite frequently recently. It has only been a month since they last parted in Lingnan.
Everyone came to a distinctive Chinese restaurant. When they stepped into the private room, an elegant atmosphere came over them. The antique decorations created a comfortable and cozy atmosphere, and every detail showed the attentiveness. Chen Yang secretly guessed that this restaurant should have been carefully selected by Xia Hongliang.
After sitting down, Xia Hongliang first carefully asked Chen Yang and Chen Xingwu about their taste preferences, then ordered many local specialties, and even asked for a pot of good tea - Xia Hongliang and Lin Yi both knew that Chen Yang did not drink.
"Doctor Chen, you are really a hidden talent!"
During the tea break, Xia Hongliang couldn't help but sigh, "I only knew that Dr. Chen had profound attainments in traditional Chinese medicine before, but I didn't expect that he was also involved in the field of extrahepatic surgery and could participate in such a high-end international conference. It really opened our eyes!"
Chen Yang smiled modestly and said, "Thank you for the compliment. This time I am mainly here to learn from Director Chen. I still have a lot to improve in terms of extrahepatic surgery."
"Dr. Chen is so modest!"
Lin Yi raised his teacup: "No matter what, it is fate that we can meet in Shen City. This time when we come to Shen City, Dr. Chen must stay for a few more days, so that Dr. Xia and I can show our hospitality! Let's drink tea instead of wine, cheers!"
Chen Xingwu looked at the scene in front of him, his heart filled with emotion.
Chen Yang's wide network of contacts really amazed him. Not only did he know leading figures like Zhong Dongyang, but he also had friends like Xia Hongliang and Lin Yi in Shen City who personally welcomed him.
When he entered the restaurant just now, Chen Xingwu noticed that this restaurant was of high quality. From this point, it can be seen that Lin Yi and Xia Hongliang attach great importance to Chen Yang.
