Chapter 211 Level 5 Ultimate Skill! (Please Subscribe)

"It's alright, senior. It's only May 2nd. We just submitted our previous research paper and only just received the first draft of the response."

"Even if the basic data analysis model for this fracture is completed now, we don't have time to write the paper. We'll have to wait until the minor revision stage before we can have time to publish it."

“Then finding someone to help with the data in advance is just a waste of money.” Lan Tianluo also knew how to be thrifty.

No matter what, Luo Tingzhu is his sister. Although Lan Tianluo can't fully understand what Luo Tingzhu went through in the research group, he can at least try to be lenient with her.

"Senior brother, aren't you going home for May Day? I thought you went home," Lan Tianluo asked casually.

Fang Ziye lives in Enshi, his hometown. If he doesn't go back during the May Day holiday, that would be a bit too much.

"I'll go back this afternoon. Anyway, it's close by, and as you know, the group I'm in now is a newly established group."

"Brother Tao was temporarily promoted to the position of head of the team. He was so nervous that he was on edge. He kept asking about the patients' conditions before and after the surgery in the group chat every day. If I went back right after my vacation, no one would reply. I was afraid he would stay in the ward..." Fang Ziye replied with empathy.

"Is the pressure of leading a group really that great? I always see Professor Deng smiling and cheerful." Lan Tianluo didn't feel much about it.

“Enshi Central Hospital and Zhongnan Hospital are definitely different. Right now, Tao Ge’s group consists of just me, Wang Zhongxing, Mao Mao, and two others. There are still twelve beds available for our patients, thanks to the help of the other two directors.”

"Besides, Professor Deng has Associate Professor Xie Jinyuan under him, his mentor, Qin Geluo, and a group of PhDs including Senior Brother Wang. They're all pretty capable, aren't they?"

"But?" Fang Ziye didn't continue.

Although they are in the same group, Xue Tao, who is currently the group leader, may not be as capable as his teacher Yuan Weihong in terms of overall ability.

But he was the head of the team, in charge of patient surgical safety, surgical quality, patient screening, and so on, all of which required his personal involvement.

In particular, a surgery before the holiday caused Xue Tao to panic for two or three days due to the patient's unstable blood pressure.

If someone dies during the surgery, there will be no one to take the blame for Xue Tao!

Most importantly, Xue Tao also has to worry about the number of his surgical patients.

If he doesn't perform enough surgeries and doesn't have enough patients, he's afraid his income will decrease. Since Director Wu Guonan went to lead Director Zhang's group, the number of patients in the group has been decreasing!

He and Wang Zhongxing, who worked in the outpatient clinic, didn't dare to admit patients; at most, they would just cut up pieces of meat.

Currently, most of the patients in the group are relying on the assistance of Director Hong Du and Director Wu Guonan.

However, such assistance certainly cannot last. If Xue Tao cannot make a name for herself in the future, then her group may become a mere shell of its former self.

If the technique is not good and something goes wrong, then it's all over. Who would dare to have surgery here? If they end up in the hospital, they'll all have to go to Hongdu and Wu Guonan.

He seemed to be unworthy of his position and lacked the ability to fulfill his duties.

Naturally, this was the first time Fang Ziye had experienced the immense pressure and tension that comes with being a team leader.

Xue Tao still lacks sufficient experience. If he had reached the level of a full professor and then led a team, there would have been other people in the team helping him, which would have made things much better.

"That's true, but there's nothing we can do about it."

"Is this how hospitals in prefecture-level cities are?!" Lan Tianlu felt a sense of fear.

Perhaps imagining himself, if he were to be assigned to perform a fracture surgery alone, Lan Tianluo would definitely not be able to sleep for a week, and he wouldn't even know where to start cutting the skin.

Not to mention the quality of the surgery.

Clinical medicine is, after all, an empirical medicine.

"How's Master doing lately? Have you all eaten together?"

"How about we treat Master to dinner together tomorrow night?" Fang Ziye had a few coins in his pocket and was thinking about how to spend them.

This is necessary. Yuan Weihong is an excellent mentor, and occasionally inviting him to a meal is a way of returning the favor.

Fang Ziye plans to go home today and then go to Wuhan tomorrow night to see his two masters. Even though he's been taken to a prefecture-level city hospital, he still needs to let them know that he's still alive.

"Okay, senior brother."

“Exactly, you’ve only been back for a day and you’re already back in Han City. Won’t your uncle and aunt have any objections?” Lan Tianluo asked.

He wanted to see his senior brother.

After Fang Ziye left, Lan Tianlu felt that neither he nor Jie Han were as relaxed in the experimental group, as if they had lost their pillar.

Although Sun Shaoqing and the others were also senior brothers, the differences between them could be seen in daily life.

“I went back home once before the holiday, and the next Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, isn’t it?” Fang Ziye didn’t mention his family affairs.

There was no need to tell Lan Tianluo that his parents would come to Enshi to stay for a while when the family business slowed down, so they could have some fun. Fang Ziye could also spend time with them when he went home.

Anyway, the rented house belongs to a distant relative, so my parents won't have any objections when they come to visit.

But there's no need to explain these things to my junior brothers.

"Okay, Tianluo, then have Jiehan contact Master. Let's have dinner together tomorrow," Fang Ziye typed with a smile.

"Okay, my second senior brother and I recently checked out a new restaurant. The food is pretty good. I just don't know if Master has been there."

“But I don’t think so. My mentor hasn’t been in a good mood lately!” “Moreover, recently he has been coming to the lab frequently to conduct experiments himself, and the direction of those experiments is different from our current research direction. I guess he wants to explore a new path as a direction for next year’s research grant application,” Lan Tianluo said.

"You and Jie Han are helping each other?" Fang Ziye's heart stirred.

Yuan Weihong, in other words, is a boss, but small business owners like him often have a very difficult time, and are often not in control of their own lives.

I thought that with so many preliminary research results this year, I could easily get funding for general research projects.

Unexpectedly, they suffered a crushing defeat, and my senior uncle even specifically summoned Yuan Weihong to explain the situation.

Although his senior brother's approach might be a bit wrong, it was actually a form of guidance for his master. If Yuan Weihong still wanted to apply for research projects, he would have to choose a different direction.

Because my mentor is definitely not working alone; he also has a research group. If another person from his research group were to compete against Yuan Weihong again next year, Yuan Weihong would still lose.

Therefore, we have no choice but to find a new path.

"Yes, I helped you, senior brother."

“But Master said that we don’t need to worry about this. He is the teacher and he is responsible for paving the way. We are responsible for repairing the road and extending it forward.”

"Master is so kind," Lan Tianluo said sincerely.

Yuan Weihong is indeed a good person; what he did is what a teacher should do.

If a graduate supervisor can't even determine the research direction or secure funding, the students won't complain, and the university will revoke their supervisor status.

In other words, if you can't make any money, what are you doing sitting in this position?

Holding a position without performing its duties?

A volume within a volume, a king among kings!
……

After ending the chat, Fang Ziye went out to pick up his takeout first.

It was a spicy hot pot. Fang Ziye had been eating a light diet to recuperate for a while, but he, who was used to strong flavors, found his mouth almost tasteless.

After finally feeling like four or five days had passed, I had to reward myself with a really spicy meal.
The spicy hot pot tastes pretty good.

For Fang Ziye, who isn't a picky eater, anything spicy is considered a suitable food.

While eating, he continued to look at the materials Luo Tingzhu had sent him, organizing and pondering them.

This was a very enjoyable process, solely for learning and exploration, taking my time to think things through, without rushing...

Fang Ziye actually knew that his current identity needed to be slightly changed.

I need to take on the tasks that I'm supposed to, but I also need to gradually strive to become a small business owner.

What is a "little boss"?
Master Deng Yong is a big boss, Master Yuan Weihong is a small boss, and Fang Ziye can only be a tiny boss.

During his doctoral studies, Fang Ziye learned to ask for money on his own, to pave his own way, and then to give money to others and spend it. In the process, he accumulated his own wealth while completing the tasks assigned to him by his two mentors.

You could say that a single tree cannot make a forest, a single thread cannot make a line, and even if you're made of iron, you can only hammer a few nails.

It's impossible for you to go to the forefront all by yourself.

Behind every outstanding researcher is a powerful team that propels them forward, and they happen to be a good leader of that team.

No matter how awesome you are, if you do the experiment all by yourself!
They have a team of a hundred people; they could easily wipe you out.

Before Fang Ziye, he had already maximized all his operations, squeezed out time, and made the most of his research funding.

So what? Associate Professor Hong Zili's team can still be on par with Fang Ziye's.

Moreover, Associate Professor Hong Zili's team has maintained this level of efficiency for many years. At the same speed, Fang Ziye would be at a disadvantage if he didn't have his own team.

You can only follow behind him and keep smelling his farts and eating them.

In essence, the accumulation of workload is simply the sum of efficiency and time.

After finishing his meal, Fang Ziye was engrossed in watching the show, so he hadn't even thrown away the trash yet.

After more than twenty minutes, Fang Ziye thought for a moment and decided that no matter what, taking the first step was more important than reaching the finish line.

Even if it's just to learn methods, spending money to accumulate proficiency and experience is worthwhile.

My junior colleagues Jie Han and Lan Tianluo are both able to use research grants to practice experimental procedures, so why can't I, Fang Ziye? Am I the only one of my kind in the world, and therefore I have to crush everyone else?

There is no such saying.

With 5,000 knowledge points, the result of this overwhelming effort was that the basic animal experiment operation experience was directly pushed to level 5. However, it brought more than just an improvement in experimental operation skills.

Rather, it possesses a kind of qualitative leap, where everything is interconnected!

The name of the skill has changed.
