As July approaches, the candidates for the Endoscopy World Cup from each country have been determined and announced on the official website.
It instantly attracted the attention of gastrointestinal surgeons around the world. Players from major medical countries such as China, Eagle Country, Sakura Country, and Europa had their surgery videos with more than 50,000 views in one day.
Most of these contestants have become successful and come from top hospitals, and many are even chief physicians.
Therefore, members logged on to the website one after another and started lively discussions under the video.
However, the style of comments under the Chinese player’s surgery video is a bit strange.
Some comments in English and other languages are admiring.
"OMG, the Chinese doctors do such a great job, I can't take my eyes off them."
"The wound is very clean, and the amount of bleeding is surprisingly small. Forgive me for asking? Is this an operation performed on a living person?"
"Wow, he comes from Haishi Ruiji Hospital, the famous Zhou's Hospital. He seems to be another outstanding student."
"I was the only one who noticed that he used a very special surgical knife?"
"The common electrosurgical knife was abandoned. No wonder the surgical field of view is so clear."
"Holy shit, it turned out to be an ultrasound scalpel. I have only seen that familiar blade in the patient's stomach. I never expected it to appear in the esophagus."
"It's so infuriating that he operates like Mozart serenades, and I operate like a carpenter pulling a chainsaw."
"Guys, my patients' wounds always inevitably become charred during surgery. I urgently need to know the model of this ultrasonic scalpel."
"Brother, don't worry, relax. It's 80% likely to be a new model launched by Johnson & Johnson. Just give the Johnson & Johnson salesperson in your hospital a call and he will run towards you like a dog that sees a Frisbee."
"Great, I'll make a call right now."
The Chinese comments are very neat, and everyone is asking the same question in unison.
"???Who is this?"
“I’ve never heard of it, but it’s awesome.”
"Shengcai He? This name is completely unimpressive."
"Is there such a person at Ricky Hospital?"
"If it doesn't say he's the chief physician, then he's the deputy senior physician. Maybe he's new?"
"Probably from a lower-level hospital for further training."
"Professor Zhou has a lot of students studying there every year. It's normal for some of them you don't recognize."
"That's the deputy director of endoscopy at the top three in a provincial city?"
"With such good skills, most of them are here for short-term training to prepare for promotion to director."
"I'm envious. I can represent the country in such a grand event. I will definitely be an endoscopic expert in the province when I go back."
"Tsk tsk, I don't know how long this big guy has been studying to reach such a superb state. It's really enviable."
“Professor Zhou is the number one endoscopist in China, and the students he teaches are truly amazing.”
"If you were a Nascent Soul master before further training, and after further training you will be a great master in the Mahayana stage. If you can win the ranking, wouldn't it mean that you will be promoted immediately and become a god-like figure."
"You are obsessed with reading upstairs. It's not like we haven't won any rankings. Unless we are champions, there's nothing special about it."
"Hey, you don't even care about the runner-up and third runner-up? What if you win the championship?"
"After winning the first championship in history, I will admit that he can become a grandmaster."
"Everyone, stop arguing and look at this? An ultrasonic scalpel that can be used in flexible endoscopic surgery!"
"This is strange. I wonder which equipment manufacturer the equipment is from?"
"It must be imported equipment. Do domestic products have that level?"
"Don't say that, there are also very high-level domestic equipment, such as Sanqing."
"That's true, but they don't do ultrasound surgery either."
"It's hard to tell. I remember they did endoscopy, etc. I'll call and ask."
"Don't ask, I'm pretty sure this is Sanqing's equipment."
"Why?"
"Because we have such a Sanqing prototype in our hospital."
"Which awesome hospital do you belong to?"
"He is the director of the Department of Gastroenterology at Su City People's Hospital. We should be considered first-come-first-served, haha."
"It's awesome, it's awesome. It seems like our hospital must contact Sanqing's sales as soon as possible and ask for a trial of the prototype."
"Haha, I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. As far as I know, this device has not been officially launched yet, and the hospitals with clinical trials are very limited."
"It's okay. I just asked the sales team. Zhou Qing, who specializes in digestive diseases, will definitely come to the exhibition. Everyone can see it then."
Since the participating doctors were too mysterious and no one knew who they were, everyone’s discussion turned to this magical ultrasound scalpel.
After thorough communication, everyone finally figured out the origin of the equipment and returned home satisfied.
However, since domestic doctors only choose the Chinese version of the website, they do not see those English comments.
The same scene also happened on the English version of the website. Overseas doctors thought hard for a long time, but they didn't know anything except guessing that this mysterious Chinese doctor was Zhou Ruping's student.
As for the new ultrasonic scalpel equipment they most want to know about, many people still found nothing after asking around.

Eagle Country, NJ, Johnson & Johnson Medical Devices Corporation Headquarters.
"Oh, you said you've received calls from dozens of hospitals?"
President Gray suddenly turned around from the large floor-to-ceiling window, stared intently at the sales director in front of him, and said:
"Those surgical directors, who are usually very arrogant, all took the initiative to call and ask about an ultrasonic scalpel that can be used in the digestive tract and can be bent at will?"
"That's right," the sales director said with a puzzled look on his face. Then he seemed to remember something, and his face instantly brightened: "I remembered that the company has indeed conducted research in this area before, but it has never yielded any results. Could it be that there has been a new one recently? A breakthrough?"
There was a trace of confusion in Gray's eyes, but he quickly covered it up well.
He shook his head and said with a very certain tone: "As far as I know, the company does not have such a new project, nor does it have any relevant output that can be clinically implemented."
"As for the research you mentioned, it is indeed the case, but due to the lack of results, it was suspended three years ago, and the relevant researchers are no longer in the company."
The sales director spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "This is the worst news. How should I explain it to those distinguished customers?"
Gray said slowly: "I can only tell them that we are still researching this ultrasonic scalpel and cannot disclose relevant information at the moment."
"However," his eyes sparkled: "Since they can see it in the endoscopic surgery video, it means that such an ultrasonic scalpel has already been used clinically. This equipment manufacturer must be found, whether it is acquisition or cooperation. , we must take action as soon as possible, otherwise we will be passive."
As a large pharmaceutical giant that started out by producing the first batch of sterile surgical supplies during the Civil War in Eagle Country, Johnson & Johnson undoubtedly has unique confidence in surgical instruments.
In the company's long life of more than 100 years, it has experienced countless ups and downs, defeated countless competitors, and devoured countless small innovative companies before it achieved its current standing position.
When it smells a hint of danger, it immediately knows how to respond.
The sales director nodded, pondered for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Mr. Gray, I noticed something unusual. The doctors we asked about this time are from all over the world, but there are no doctors from China. This seems a bit strange."
"Combined with the fact that the surgery video comes from China, maybe doctors in China know something."
Gray's eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes, you observed very carefully. I will call Song, the president of China District, immediately and ask him to concentrate on this matter."
He immediately dialed the number of the president of China District, but unfortunately the other party knew nothing about it. He could only tell him to pay more attention and notify the headquarters as soon as possible if there was any new news.

Kunming City, First People's Hospital, Dean's Office.
There was a knock on the door.
Director Zhu walked in with a smile on his face and handed a document.
"Dean, I have already made the staff allocation list for various departments of general surgery that you asked me to make."
"Look, these are the lists of doctors from the first department of general surgery, the second department of general surgery, and the third department of general surgery. They are all prepared according to your instructions. Their names, ages, personalities, length of service, surgeries they are good at, etc."
"Okay, you sit down first and I'll take a look." Dean Fang nodded and picked it up to read through.
He read it very carefully, almost word by word, line by line, and even took out a pen to circle around everyone's surgical procedures.
It took almost ten minutes to read this thin five-page paper.
After reading it, Dean Fang stared at Director Zhu for a long time, with a half-smile but not a smile on his face, which made him feel nervous.
Director Zhu twisted uncomfortably in his chair and asked cautiously: "Dean, what is your opinion?"
Dean Fang stopped smiling and slowly said four words: "No, do it again."
Director Zhu was stunned for a moment and asked quickly: "Dean, is there something wrong? Please explain it clearly so that I can rearrange it."
Dean Fang picked up the tea cup, took a sip, shook his head and said: "Lao Zhu, in the past, all matters in your general surgery department were all internal conflicts, so I didn't bother to take care of them. But this time, they are all divided into departments, general second and third years. But it’s not your business, so don’t make it too obvious.”
He gently poked the file with his finger and said: "There are currently 19 people in the general surgery department, including 1 chief physician, no deputy chief physician, 7 attending physicians, and 11 residents."
"Look at you, you only assigned 5 attending doctors, and the remaining two are one on each side. There are 11 residents, all of whom you kicked out to the second and third general students. Now the director I invited is here. Don’t you want to reason with me?”
"Oh, this is all my fault. I didn't explain it clearly to you." Director Zhu quickly said, "That's right. In fact, half of the 11 residents have reached their seniority and will be promoted to attending physicians by the end of the year. Some of the 7 attending physicians will be promoted to attending physicians by the end of the year." Three of them need to be promoted to vice-high level.”
"Look, I'm not biased. I divided two of the three attending doctors who were going to be promoted to associate professors into general second and third general doctors, leaving one for myself."
"That's reasonable." He looked at Dean Fang with a smile: "After all, Puyi is responsible for gastrointestinal surgery, and has the most patients among the three departments. The business is usually busy, and I am older. With so much work, I have to do it. Choose some more senior subordinates?"
"Ahem," Dean Fang was so angry that he almost choked on his tea. He didn't expect that this old Zhu was so thick-skinned and was simply incompetent. He could be so weird because of his seniority.
He looked solemn and said coldly: "It doesn't make sense if you say that."
"The two attending doctors you threw out, this Lao Wang is yours, right? Did you send them out specifically to confront the people I invited?"
"The other Huang Jiafu, he has connections in the Health Committee. You can't deal with him anyway, so you might as well kick him away and keep out of sight."
"There's only one left, forget it, I'm too lazy to take care of the rest."
"Anyway, take your love back to Lao Wang and replace him with someone else." Dean Fang pondered for a moment and said, "Well, let's replace him with He Shengcai."
"This is not possible," Director Zhu said hurriedly: "He Shengcai is a loner, doesn't like to be gregarious, doesn't get along well with his colleagues, and has a bad personality. He goes his own way and is difficult to manage.
"Didn't he go to a higher-level hospital for further studies? He was supposed to come back last week, but he refused to come back when I asked him to. He even talked back to me. This guy lies a lot and has a bad character."
Director Zhu shook his head like a rattle as he spoke.
"Haha, since his character is not good and you don't like him, wouldn't it be better if I transferred him away." Dean Fang sneered.
"This, this, is not impossible." Director Zhu hesitated.
"I know about the further study. It's just that you are too small-minded. Don't blame him." Dean Fang continued with an unfazed expression.
"Xiao He called me specifically to make it clear that Professor Zhou from Ruiji admired him and wanted to take him to the International Digestive Disease Weekly Conference. He originally wanted to report to you, but you lost your temper and dragged him away. If it goes dark, he can’t contact you at all.”
"Xiao He, I think, has a pretty good personality. How else could he get along well with Professor Zhou at Ruiji Hospital? He is also down-to-earth and hard-working, so he is appreciated by both Dr. Jian and Professor Zhou. The two of them look at people It’s definitely not wrong.”
Director Zhu's face suddenly darkened, and then he remembered that after hanging up the phone that day, he was so angry that he blacklisted He Shengcai.
He was angry and anxious, and wanted to scold He Shengcai, but seeing Dean Fang's admiration for him, he could only swallow all the curse words.
Dean Fang tapped his fingers on the table and fell into deep thought.
"He Shengcai came back from Ruiji Hospital for further training. His skills should be passable and he is honest. He can help the new director of Pusan. He has been in this hospital for a long time and knows everyone. If he does well, he will be given the position of deputy next year. Gao, there should be no problem.”
"Huang Jiafu is enough for the Second Department of General Education. He has good skills in hepatobiliary surgery, is smart, and has a sense of proportion. The most important thing is that the new director of the Second Department of General Education is too obsessed with technology and doesn't care about things. He can help."
Almost instantly, Dean Fang made the final conclusion: "That's it, Huang Jiafu will go to the second level of general education, and He Shengcai will go to the third level of general education."
"Change it as I just said and submit it again."
He waved at Director Zhu and laughed: "Just hold your two precious little ones and make trouble in Puyi."
Director Zhu nodded and stood up, and said with a smile: "No problem, leader, change it. Isn't it okay for me to change it? I will definitely satisfy you."
