Free Web NovelChapter 576: Chapter 263: Tied for First, Focus of the Whole Venue
He was more interested in the correct answers.
As for the rankings, he remained calm and indifferent to fame and disgrace.
Dean Jin never expected that the doctors from his hospital could achieve ranking in the first round of the competition. Because the Second Hospital is indeed weak in the area of blood diseases.
One’s own people know their own situation.
Apart from General Surgery and Bone Setting, the Second Hospital has no other medical fields that can be presented.
"The results are out!"
"Oh my! There’s got to be a mistake! How did Li Jingsheng’s name come up?"
"And ranked first, tied with Professor Wang Zhenghai from Qiaobang Hospital, my goodness!"
The doctors and the dean of the Second Hospital were almost collectively fainted when they saw the rankings on the screen.
Because it was too unbelievable.
It was not surprising that Professor Wang Zhenghai ranked first.
Not because this is Qiaobang Hospital’s venue and the judges favored them. But because Professor Wang Zhenghai is very well-known in the field of blood diseases, being one of the top blood disease experts in the country.
Many authoritative textbooks have Wang Zhenghai’s involvement, even as the main editor.
He is one of the leading experts at Qiaobang Hospital, among the top name experts at Qiaobang Hospital.
Shao Bing, the doctor recruited by Li Jingsheng into the clinic, was previously a well-known internal medicine doctor at Qiaobang Hospital, but he is in no way comparable to such top-name experts.
At Qiaobang Hospital, doctors who are a bit older, as long as they haven’t been eliminated, are basically all distinguished doctors.
But very few can reach the level of Wang Zhenghai, entering the ranks of top-name experts and getting nominated as academician candidates.
Many speculate that Wang Zhenghai is likely to be elected as an academician this year.
Of course, Professor Wang Zhenghai himself feels quite awkward about this.
Because ever since he entered the list of academician candidates, every year there are such voices and speculations.
Yet, he has been unsuccessful for two consecutive years.
The quota for academicians is limited, and only those with major contributions in every aspect have a chance to be successfully elected.
The competition is hundreds of times fiercer than for senior professional titles.
Many name experts from major hospitals and famous professors have notable achievements in academia, research, and medical skills, but do not even qualify for the candidate list.
It is clear how difficult it is to become an academician.
Those who are, are all giants and authorities in their fields.
At this moment, Li Jingsheng actually tied for first place with such a giant, causing a stir in the hall.
Almost everyone began looking in the direction of the Second Hospital.
Everyone wanted to see who the doctor was that could tie with Professor Wang Zhenghai for first place.
Some doctors from other provinces who were unfamiliar with the Second Hospital began to inquire around.
How is Lijiang City’s Second Hospital so strong?
Never heard of it before!
Is Lijiang City’s Second Hospital stronger than Lijiang City People’s Hospital?
This remark was heard by the dean and doctors of the People’s Hospital, and they all pulled long faces.
Damn, the People’s Hospital is a top-tier major hospital, and in Lijiang City, only Qiaobang can outshine it. Yet someone elevated the Second Hospital above the People’s Hospital.
This is simply a humiliation to the People’s Hospital, an utter disgrace.
Everyone knows that the numbered hospitals in Lijiang City have seriously declined. When patients have difficult-to-treat major illnesses, who goes to the numbered hospitals?
They all squeeze into the People’s Hospital and Qiaobang Hospital.
No bed? People would rather queue for a few days.
The Second Hospital didn’t even get ranked as a top-tier hospital, yet it has taken a head over the People’s Hospital.
The leading vice dean was so angry that his nose was crooked.
This is all because of the anger!
Dean Wang of the First Hospital looked at the rankings on the big screen and couldn’t help but take off his glasses to wipe them.
Could it be that I’ve been indulging too much lately, and my old eyes are getting blurry?
How did a doctor from the Second Hospital get first place, and tie with Qiaobang Hospital’s Wang Haizheng for first place?
"You two, take a quick look, is there really a Dr. Li Jingsheng from the Second Hospital as one of the first-place winners?"
He said to the young beauties sitting on either side of him.
A young female doctor, a young female nurse, both very pretty. This Dean Wang truly knows how to enjoy himself!
"Yes, you are correct. It’s Dr. Li Jingsheng from the Second Hospital, with a score of 53 points."
The two beauties confirmed in unison.
Upon hearing this, Dean Wang’s expression instantly changed.
"The total score is 55 points, and this Li Jingsheng managed to score 53 points, which means only two points were deducted. This requires consistently correct diagnosis direction and only using routine examination opportunities twice. When did the Second Hospital produce such an outstanding doctor?"
Dean Wang realized these two female medical staff could not provide any answers.
They are just two blossoms, only for enjoyment.
Dean Wang then turned his gaze to other doctors in his hospital.
"Old Lin, have you ever heard of this Dr. Li Jingsheng?"
"Don’t mention it; he’s a doctor who left our First Hospital."
Director Lin shook his head with a sigh.
"What?"
Director Wang almost dropped his glasses in shock, but fortunately, the quick-witted nurse beside him caught them and thoughtfully helped put them back on.
"Li Jingsheng worked in our Pulmonary Medicine department for several years; I definitely wouldn’t mistake him. I noticed him when he entered just now."
Director Lin lowered his voice and spoke seriously.
"Such a strong talent, how did he end up leaving? You, you, now he’s gone to the Second Hospital, making them proud."
Vice Dean Wang, upon hearing that Li Jingsheng had fled from the First Hospital, lamented and scolded Director Lin on the spot.
"You wronged me terribly. Normally, I treat doctors under me well. Li Jingsheng had an average performance before, and later his promotion to attending was held back. You know, the spots are limited, so they must be prioritized for more outstanding doctors. He later resigned directly. I heard he opened a clinic, and somehow he ended up at the Second Hospital and became this strong.
It’s true, life changes in thirty years.
If I had known he had such promise, I surely would have found ways to keep him."
Half of Director Lin’s regret was feigned.
An official one level higher can crush you.
Vice Dean Wang’s authority far surpassed his. If he thought Lin had sabotaged Li Jingsheng and forced him away, could he let Lin off the hook?
"I see! Let’s focus on the competition first!"
Dean Wang’s expression slightly softened after hearing this.
He turned and spoke to the two beautiful women beside him, "Find a chance to approach Li Jingsheng and if you can bringing him back, I promise a grand reward."
"Dean Wang, what kind of grand reward?"
The nurse asked coquettishly.
"I’ll promote you to head nurse within three years."
"Really?"
The nurse perked up and immediately became interested.
This type of woman, to climb the ladder and get a raise, would willingly accept Dean Wang’s unspoken rules. Given significant benefits, there’s nothing they wouldn’t do.
Becoming a head nurse is what countless nurses dream of.
"When have I ever made a promise I didn’t keep?"
Dean Wang said with a touch of pride.
"Hehe, that’s true. I’ll go and try to touch base with him later. Which doctor is he? There are so many male doctors at the Second Hospital, I don’t know any of them."
"Old Lin, which one is Li Jingsheng?"
"He’s the first on the right in the fourth row."
Director Lin replied.
"Still so young! Looks like he’s not yet thirty. How could his skills in diagnosing blood disorders be so impressive?"
Dean Wang tilted his head to have a look.
Discovering Li Jingsheng was unexpectedly young.
A bit of doubt crept into his mind.
"I haven’t paid attention to the exact age, maybe around thirty. He worked in our hospital for six or seven years. He rotated through quite a few departments; you could also ask other department directors."
"Since Director Lin mentioned him, I actually have some impression of this person. Back then, during his standard training in our General Surgery department, in the operating room, he was as clumsy as a pig, I didn’t even dare let him hold the retractor."
Spoke a doctor from General Surgery, who was over forty.
"Performed so poorly in our hospital? Then let’s wait and observe further before trying to poach him."
Dean Wang’s last words were directed at the two beauties beside him.
Using seduction tactics to win over Li Jingsheng, they underestimated him.
This kind of charmed-out woman from older men, even if offered to Li Jingsheng, he wouldn’t want.
At this moment, looking at the rankings on the big screen, he felt both surprised and delighted.
It seemed his diagnostic skills were indeed stronger than before.
His doctor rank had risen to associate chief physician, which was pretty impressive.
Additionally, he had developed good habits in everyday clinical work, never ordering too many tests for patients and being extremely responsible for each one, finally yielding fruitful results.
Now possessing multi-disciplinary diagnostic skills also provided him with a solid foundation for diagnosing these complex cases.
Landing directly in first place unexpectedly made him the star of the event.
Professor Wang Zhenghai winning first place was expected; no one was surprised.
If he hadn’t taken first place, only then would people be astonished.
Li Jingsheng, a young unknown doctor, as a dazzling dark horse, emerged out of nowhere. Rising directly to first place, indeed shocked everyone.
"Congratulations to Qiaobang Hospital’s Professor Wang Zhenghai, Second Hospital’s Dr. Li Jingsheng, for winning first place. Congratulations to People’s Hospital’s Professor Mo Lanlan for second place. Congratulations..."
The host emotionally announced the top three names.
"Doctors whose names were just read, please come to the stage, and Chairman Jin from the Western Medical Association will personally present your trophies and certificates of honor."
So quick was the speed.
Perhaps the list had hardly been released before the on-site staff began hastily preparing.
Presumably also to encourage the physicians present to actively participate.
Otherwise, they could have uniformly handed out trophies and certificates of honor after the competition ends in three days.
"Xiaoli, well done! You’ve really brought pride and glory to our Second Hospital. After returning to the hospital, we will certainly commend and encourage you heavily. Other doctors should also learn from Dr. Li and aim to secure a good ranking."
Vice Dean Jin’s excitement had him slightly flushed.
This achievement was indeed a significant one.
First place, this was something he didn’t even dare to dream of.
