Check-in at the Hospital: The First Surgery Shocked the Nation!

"Yu Peng, isn’t your viewpoint a bit too absolute?"

At this moment, a professor seated next to Liu Guofeng spoke up.

As soon as he spoke, quite a few people nodded in agreement.

Although Western medicine is now the most widespread globally, that doesn’t mean other forms of medicine don’t exist, right?

"And who might this be?"

"This is our clinical graduate advisor, Professor Chen."

"Ah, Professor Chen, got it, thank you!"

Upon hearing the host’s introduction, Yu Peng nodded and looked at Mr. Chen,

"I have a question for Professor Chen. Do you know why modern medicine surpasses all other forms of medicine?"

With that, he smiled and looked at Professor Chen, waiting for an answer.

"This is a profound question, one that would take a long time to explore."

"No need! I can tell you right now!"

Hearing the other party’s words, Yu Peng raised his hand and interrupted, speaking loudly,

"Because other forms of medicine are too outdated, while Western medicine has completed its dissection, even modification, of the human body!"

As his words fell, the murmurs in the audience subsided into silence with a few chuckles.

The response seemed quite reasonable, prompting some students to nod in agreement.

However, Qin Feng’s frown deepened.

To Qin Feng, Yu Peng’s words seemed like a distortion of concepts!

Since no one pressed further, Yu Peng quickly moved on from the topic to explain his research on cardiac surgery.

But soon, Qin Feng noticed a problem.

Glancing at the time— just over 15 minutes had passed— the students behind him were starting to show signs of restlessness.

He turned his head and saw confusion and bewilderment on those young faces.

They couldn’t understand!

Exactly.

Qin Feng had already realized that the topic Yu Peng was discussing was far beyond what they could think about or even understand at this stage of cardiac research.

Even Liu Guofeng beside him occasionally showed a perplexed expression, yet he listened with keen interest.

After all, he was the deputy director of cardiac surgery at Peking Union, which matches his expertise.

"Teacher Liu, Teacher Liu."

Qin Feng thought for a moment, then lightly tapped his shoulder, whispering.

"Hmm? Qin Feng, what’s up?"

Liu Guofeng snapped out of it and looked at him curiously.

"The content he’s discussing isn’t quite suitable, the students can’t understand it— it’s too advanced."

Qin Feng explained.

Upon hearing this, Liu Guofeng was taken aback, then looked back at the students and glanced at the content on Yu Peng’s PPT.

It indeed exceeded their level!

This seemed to have reached the realm of PhD-level and beyond, not something students still learning the basics could understand.

The preceding speakers did slightly go beyond the scope, but overall it was still within range.

Yu Peng, however, completely let himself go and couldn’t stop, delving deeper into the subject.

He thought for a moment, got up, walked to the side, and gestured at the host below the stage.

They talked in a dark corner for about two or three minutes before returning to their seats.

"Thank you for the reminder, Qin Feng. I was so engrossed, hahaha~"

"No worries, Teacher Liu."

Qin Feng shook his head, but he noticed that Liu Guofeng seemed a bit unhappy,

"Teacher Liu, is there something on your mind?"

"You noticed, eh? It’s actually not a big deal."

Liu Guofeng forced a bitter smile and waved his hand, indicating he didn’t want to talk, while his gaze on Yu Peng on stage was complex.

"Is it related to him?"

After a few moments of silence, Qin Feng pointed up and asked quietly,

"Yu Peng is from cardiac surgery, as are you. Could it be..."

"Hahaha~ You’re really sharp. Nothing gets past you."

Hearing this, Liu Guofeng shook his head helplessly and exhaled a long breath,

"Well, you’ll find out sooner or later, so let me just tell you the truth.

Our hospital has already been in contact with Yu Peng. The hospital board wants to hire him to join the cardiac surgery department at Peking Union as the deputy director."

"Deputy director? Aren’t you the deputy director?"

Surprised by this, Qin Feng blurted out instinctively.

He then quickly regained his composure, realizing the implications, and held his tongue.

"Yes, indeed, hahaha~"

Liu Guofeng nodded,

"Yu Peng is young, with top-notch credentials and work experience. Honestly, appointing him as the deputy director at Peking Union’s cardiac surgery is not out of the question.

He’s a returning elite talent, deserving special consideration.

You get it, right?"

Qin Feng nodded; he understood.

So all along, the guy on stage had become Liu Guofeng’s competitor.

And by the looks of it, he was quite formidable!

Most importantly, he was young!

Liu Guofeng was already over forty, while Yu Peng was only in his early thirties, at least ten years younger.

A thirty-something deputy director at Peking Union’s specialty department!

Such a position would be enough to make anyone across the national medical community green with envy.

Qin Feng himself was merely hired as an attending physician in the ICU on an exceptional basis, while Yu Peng’s starting point was even higher!

This showed just how much emphasis was placed on him...

"Can’t understand? Hahaha~"

At this moment, on the stage,

Yu Peng was interrupted by the host, and after listening to what the host said, he couldn’t help but laugh, lightly scanning the audience,

"If none of this is understood here, then there’s no need to continue with the rest— it’s completely pointless.

I don’t like to waste my breath; turn on the lights."

After saying so, he turned off the slide show.

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions froze.

This guy!

He’s really so arrogant.

"Alright, how about this— you have 15 minutes left, you can ask me three questions."

Yu Peng glanced at his watch and gestured at the professors in the audience,

"Any questions about cardiac surgery, feel free, don’t hold back."

With those words, he even smiled at Liu Guofeng.

Noticing this, Liu Guofeng clenched his fist, his eyelids twitching.

Qin Feng, observing the situation, thought they were in for a rough ride!

"Senior Yu! I have a question!"

At this moment, a girl’s voice suddenly came from behind.

Qin Feng was startled since the voice came right from behind him, almost shouting into his ear.

Quickly, the host passed on the microphone, placing it in the girl’s hand.

Hearing this, Qin Feng turned his head to look at the girl behind him and found she was quite a beautiful young woman.

She wore a white dress, and her long hair fell elegantly, making her look gentle and charming.

"Alright, what’s your question?"

Yu Peng on stage also noticed the girl’s beauty, lowered his voice a bit, and smiled.

"Senior Yu, you just said there should only be Western medicine globally, so what do you think of our ancient medicine?"

The girl asked with a serious expression.

"Ancient medicine? Hahaha~"

Hearing this question, Yu Peng laughed immediately, subconsciously straightening his posture,

"Young lady, you’re talking about Chinese medicine, aren’t you?"

"Yes."

The girl nodded.

Hearing this question, Qin Feng was also taken aback, unable to resist taking a careful look at the girl behind him.

He hadn’t expected anyone to ask such a question here, given that hardly anyone cared about Chinese medicine these days.

Moreover, Peking Union is one of the top institutions for modern medicine in the country, making the question all the more abrupt.

"I can responsibly tell you that so-called ancient medicine is merely a group mixing herbs together to achieve so-called curing effects.

Compared to modern medicine, it’s like child’s play."

With a nonchalant expression, Yu Peng arrogantly stated,

"As for the other aspects of Chinese medicine, not even the most basic rules of medicine have recognized them.

The legendary ancient great doctors were, at best, quacks who were only slightly acquainted with minor ailments.

The question has no meaning, hahaha!"

As his words concluded, the audience buzzed with chatter.

Qin Feng’s expression, in particular, changed, his gaze becoming notably colder.

He couldn’t listen to it any longer!

This was nothing less than an outright insult to Chinese medicine, a complete negation of ancient medical practices.
