Developing new surgical methods was something that high-ranked hospitals were willing to do, and it was also something that they must do.

New surgical methods meant new instruments and equipment, new projects and funding, new training and advanced studies, new allies and representatives…

Developing new surgical methods could eliminate old surgical methods, then the hospital could progress according to the research direction recognized by the new leader and department director. It did not only reduce the impact of old-school doctors but also lower the burden on old surgical methods to be successful.

For patients, new surgical methods were not necessarily the best choice, because they were basically something that was considered inferior. However, when compared to other surgical methods that were even more inferior in level, there were still some benefits to them. Overall, new surgical methods were good, but it would be different when a person was really particular about specifics.

In short, developing new surgical methods was politically and profitably correct. The only disadvantage was that it was slightly troublesome and hard. However, doctors and leaders who worked in tertiary Grade A hospitals were not bothered by this.

Take Donghuang Regional Hospital as an example. They happily sent two doctors to drive and pick up Ling Ran. They actively engaged him in conversation, and they were also very sweet with their words.

Zuo Cidian exchanged pleasantries with them. Then, he turned around, smiled, and said to Zhang Anmin, ”This regional hospital is a tertiary Grade A hospital. The district hospital in Yun Hua behaves like the dead. Abdominoscopy has been developed for years, and they still can't differentiate between the different minimally invasive surgeries. Their microsurgeries are even worse, as if they are afraid of patients going to them to get their hands reattached. ”

Zhang Anmin calmly said, ”The Bazhaixiang hospital branch is in worse condition.”

”As if you haven't seen the town hospital before.” Zuo Cidian pursed his lips, and he regarded Zhang Anmin in contempt, who had only gone to a town hospital branch for freelance surgery.

Zhang Anmin smiled. ”When you were in the town hospital, you did not perform any surgery. Now, when I go over there for freelance surgery, one surgery will pay me several thousands of RMB. I just fear that the condition of Bazhaixiang is not good and can't pay me that amount.”

Zuo Cidian felt so angry that he fumed with anger. He knew Zhang Anmin was poor and tired, and his wife was also very fierce, but being able to earn money with freelance surgeries was already amazing. That was truly impressive!

Zuo Cidian could imagine that Zhang Anmin, who was poor, tired and had a fierce wife, would soon become Zhang Anmin who was not poor, but still tired and had a fierce wife, while him, Zuo Cidian… still did not have a wife…

Zuo Cidian rubbed his eyes while thinking, 'I should learn a special skill.'

When he was thinking, he received a call from the 222-pound resident doctor brought by Zhu Tongyi. ”Academician Zhu's meeting is ending soon, so he's asking where Doctor Ling will be heading for surgery today?”

”Oh, today, we'll go to Donghuang Regional Hospital. They have sent a car over.” As Zuo Cidian spoke, he nodded to the doctors from Donghuang Regional Hospital, while he moved his lips, and said, 'Academician Zhu.'

Over the past few days, Academician Zhu appeared by Ling Ran's side frequently, so the doctors from Donghuang Regional Hospital knew who Zuo Cidian mentioned after they thought about it for a short while. Then, they also smiled and nodded.

On the other end of the phone, the 222-pound resident doctor held a bottle of water, drank, and smiled. ”That's just right. We will go to Beijing University Sixth Hospital first, then we'll go to Donghuang Regional Hospital with you. We're not familiar with the road.”

”Oh, alright, let me ask.” Zuo Cidian then clapped his hand over the bottom of his phone, smiled to those two doctors from Donghuang Regional Hospital in front of him, and asked, ”Academician Zhu says he wants to take a ride with your car, is it okay?”

”Oh… Okay, sure…” Two doctors looked at each other, and they were unable to turn down his request.

Zuo Cidian continued to talk through the phone, while the doctors discussed in a low voice.

”We're driving a Buick GL8, it can't accommodate so many of us, right?”

”Should we ask the hospital to send another car over?”

”Let's go to the department director and have him ask a pharmaceutical sales company to send another car over.”

Two of them were also doctors who always worked in welcoming and sending off other doctors. They finished their discussion quickly before they started making calls.

On the other hand, Zuo Cidian put down his phone before he picked it up again.

This time, it was Professor Feng Zhixiang.

A few sentences later, Zuo Cidian clapped his hand on the phone again and said to the two doctors from Donghuang Regional Hospital. ”Professor Feng Zhixiang has also come over. He drove here, and he has just parked his car. He heard that we have a car going together, so he asks if he can take a ride with us…”

”Of course. ” The two young doctors dared not reject Professor Feng Zhixiang. Besides, they were just adding another person.
