Capital, Sanyao Hospital.

This is a very awesome hospital, and its awesomeness is not only reflected in its medical technology, but also in its level.

The superior department of Sanyao is not the Ministry of Health, but a department with a higher level and greater power, and it also receives very special patients.

Therefore, in the Chinese medical community, Sanyao is a transcendent existence, and all parties must give it some respect.

In the 1980s and 1990s, there were generally four best plastic surgery hospitals in China: Shanghai No. 9 Hospital, Peking University No. 3 Hospital, Nanfang Hospital, and Sanyao Hospital.

Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital is a sudden rise, and it only focused on the treatment of cleft lip and palate before. It has only recently begun to develop all-round plastic surgery projects.

Therefore, although Chen Qi of Yuezhong Hospital is very famous, the plastic surgery department of Yuezhong Hospital is really not taken seriously by the domestic medical circle and is not ranked high.

The first thing that really caused a stir in the Plastic Surgery Department of the Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital was the huge donation of HK$400 million from the Ke family in Xiangjiang, which absolutely shocked all the deans across the country.

But because the patient in Xiangjiang was first treated by the burn surgery department and later the plastic surgery department was somewhat ignored by people, in fact, 200 million was earned by the plastic surgery department.

(Many hospitals in later generations merged these two departments to form a "Restoration, Reconstruction and Burns and Plastic Surgery Department")

The second time that the Plastic Surgery Department of Vietnam-China Hospital caused a national sensation was the successful corrective surgery on a patient with "true hermaphroditism".

This matter is considered gossip in other hospitals and can be discussed after dinner, but for the plastic surgery community, this is definitely big news.

Even doctors in these top hospitals have almost never encountered patients with true hermaphroditism.

Even if some doctors have encountered him before, the patients often deny it or flee secretly in order to protect their privacy, and it is absolutely impossible to stay for treatment.

Besides, even if the patient is left dead or alive by the doctor, you, the plastic surgeon, must be able to perform surgeries. Not everyone is as proficient in all surgeries as Chen Qi, and his skills are astonishing.

Therefore, all of the above have led to the fact that "true intersex malformation" is rarely discovered in China, at least not a single academic paper has been published so far.

It didn't exist before, but it exists now, so this is a big treasure.

As the only case in the world with two complete functions, Liu Chunjiao is a big gold mine.

Because you can apply for a project, even if the funding for a project is hundreds of thousands of yuan, it is still a huge sum of money for doctors in 1990, enough to be popular and drink spicy food. This is a profit.

The other is fame. Whoever becomes the first person in the country to treat hermaphroditism will become famous.

For Meng Yushu, the vice president of Sanyao, a top scientific research project may be the last stepping stone for him to be elected as a "faculty member".

Due to some special reasons, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the co-optation of academic members (formerly known as "Academicians") has always been stop-and-go, which is extremely irregular.

This has resulted in a large number of scientific researchers who were not elected as "faculty members" symbolizing the highest academic status in their lifetimes, and there was a severe talent gap.

It was not until May 1979 that the recruitment of members of the academic department was carried out, and then there was a break for ten years.

It was not until 1990 that the country started co-opting academic faculty members again, with only 50 seats. However, there were hundreds of thousands of senior intellectuals across the country, from all walks of life, and in various units with senior professional titles or above.

There are so many people competing for 50 places, which shows the value of the members of the academic department.

Not only are there a small number of overall committee members, but there are also restrictions on the number of members of academic departments in the same discipline. For example, for the same discipline, there is often one quota for the theoretical-focused Academy of Sciences and one quota for the practical-focused Academy of Engineering.

Although the division was not so detailed in 1990, this time for the co-optation of academic members, because Plastic Surgery did not have an academic member, a quota was specially set up for Plastic Surgery.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

In other words, there are so many plastic surgery doctors across the country competing for a spot.

Among them, the most qualified are Professor Meng Yushu from Sanyao Hospital, Professor Ge Minghua from Peking University Third Hospital, Professor Fang Bing from Shanghai Ninth Hospital, Professor Cao Lichun from Nanfang Hospital, etc.

Among them, Meng Yushu's strongest opponent should be Professor Ge Minghua from the Third Hospital of Peking University, because Professor Ge Minghua is the chairman of the Cleft Lip and Palate Diagnosis and Treatment Alliance of the Chinese Medical Association and is very famous in the country for maxillofacial plastic surgery.

Of course, everyone has overlooked that there is also a director of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) in Vietnam-China Hospital, Chen Qi.

But the domestic academic environment is very funny.

No matter how awesome you are abroad and how influential you are, it is of no use at home. If the country does not recognize you, are you angry?

It's equivalent to winning an Olympic gold medal. What's important in China is the National Games gold medal.

Just like Grandma Tu, who both won the Nobel Prize in Medicine and is the first person in the domestic medical field, she ran for the election four times and was ultimately unable to be elected as an "Academician".

Why?

There are many reasons. One reason is that artemisinin is a team achievement and cannot be counted as an individual achievement, so it is not Tu Youyou’s credit. Another reason is that Tu Youyou is too old.

(Ironically, among the valid candidates for the 2023 election of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the eldest candidate is 77 years old, a total of 2. Among the valid candidates for the election of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the eldest candidate is 68 years old.

4 people.)

In fact, to put it bluntly, there are already many candidates for academician election. Just like hand surgery is dominated by Yuan's hand surgery, academicians can only come from the disciples of Yuan's hand surgery.

There are also rules for the nomination of academicians, including Chapter 3 "Nominating and Determining Candidates" and Article 7: Academicians and national academic groups can nominate candidates, and individual applications will not be accepted.

Well, the difficulty lies here. Either you are popular and several academicians nominate you, or you are nominated by the National Medical Association.

If no one nominates you, it will be in vain no matter how good you are. If you want to stand for election, you must be recognized by others.

As for whether others recognize you or not, it all depends on how popular you are? Can you provide benefits to others? Are you in the same gang as me?

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! It's that simple.

The situation of Chen Qi and Tu Youyou is somewhat similar.

Tu Youyou's team discovered artemisinin in the 1980s. It has been so many years and everyone has retired. What connections do you still have in the academic circle?

Chen Qi has had almost no contact with the domestic medical community since he started working. He even had a fight with the National Society for Surgery of the Hand, and has never joined any domestic academic organization.

At the beginning, the Gastroenterology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association wanted to recruit Chen Qi and Lan Lijuan to join the domestic medical association after they were elected as WGO directors and members.

In the end, due to the opposition of some people, the matter was dropped.

Therefore, Chen Qi's popularity in the domestic medical community is not that good. Even though he is a director of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, no one nominated him as a candidate for the academic committee.

(In fact, even if someone nominates Chen Qi, opponents will definitely point to his age)

Sanyao Hospital, in the office of the vice president.

A group of people in white coats were having a meeting, and Meng Yushu was sitting behind the desk, constantly flipping through the topics published in this year's hospital employee newspaper.

Meng Yushu is in urgent need of topics, especially important topics, so the best way is to choose from the topics reported by doctors. This is the fastest, most direct and most effective method.

Any project that is favored by Vice President Meng Yushu belongs to him, and he is so domineering.

Of course, in the end, the subject still needs to be handled by a doctor below. All he needs to do is give his name to the deputy director and be signed as the first author.

But after reading for a long time, Meng Yushu didn't see a satisfactory topic:

"No, no, no, these projects are either not innovative, not sensational, or the cycle is too long. None of these meet my standards. What should I do? I will be participating in the evaluation in the second half of the year, and the projects I have now are not enough to recommend.

I will become a member of the school department."

Next to him, Director Wang Gang of the Medical Department was also looking through the catalog:

"Dean Meng, don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Good topics are rare. Let's think of other ways."

"What I need is a groundbreaking, sensational, and preferably unique topic. Do you understand? What's the point of this plastic surgery and that correction?"

At this time, Yao Wenrong, director of the Science and Education Department, made a suggestion:

"Dean Meng, I read in the newspaper a few days ago that the Vietnam Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine performed the first true hermaphroditism operation and helped a female patient remove her male organ. What do you think of this topic?"

Wang Gang nodded: "Yes, I've heard about this too."

Meng Yushu sighed:

"It's a pity that we knew it too late. Otherwise, if I had to perform this operation and take the lead on this topic, my selection this year would definitely be stable. There is no way Lao Ge could catch up with me."

Yao Wenrong said mysteriously:

"It's not too late. I've obviously heard that the Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital has just admitted another patient with true hermaphroditism. And the most exaggerated thing is, do you know what it is? This patient is male... female... functional...

I can have it all. It is said that even after giving birth to a child, I can still live a sexual life as a man and a lesbian."

"What?~~~"

All the people in white coats in the office were shocked. They were all top doctors from top hospitals, so they would not be stunned easily.

Vice President Meng Yushu was also dumbfounded:

"Real or false? Even if we look internationally, although hermaphroditism is said to have two sets of organs, male and female, we have never heard that these two sets of organs can function independently. Is this possible?

?”

Yao Wenrong chuckled: "It's impossible. Anyway, it's all coming from Yuezhong Hospital. I don't know whether it's true or not."

At this time, Wang Gang had an idea:

"Dean Meng, we can call the Yuezhong Hospital to ask. If this is really the case, then this subject will definitely cause a sensation all over the world. If this patient is in your hands, the subject is not in your hands. You

Look, isn’t this innovative subject coming?”

Meng Yushu's eyes brightened when he heard:

"Yes, although the operation is difficult, it doesn't seem to be that huge. Unfortunately, the patient is now at the Vietnam Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, and in Haidong Province, we are beyond our reach."

Wang Gang chuckled:

"Isn't this simple? It's a local hospital. Let's send an announcement and ask them to transfer their patients to us. At most, we can just give them a few training places."

Meng Yushumi raised his eyes: "Is this okay?"
