Chapter 158: Another Third-Class Merit (Part 2)

"It's past six o'clock now, and there are still two hours left. How long will it take to get to the venue?" Wei Ping asked.

"If we drive there, it'll take about half an hour! If we get stuck in traffic, it might take closer to an hour. If we get stuck in traffic, it might take more than an hour and a half. Today is Monday, so there will probably be traffic!"

Yang Ke said this.

Those who drive frequently know when there will be traffic jams.

It's rush hour now and there are a lot of cars on the road.

There is nothing we can do about this.

The Magic City has developed too fast in recent years.

There are more and more cars on the road.

Although the license plate was restricted later, it was too late.

Some main roads are still very congested.

"How about taking the subway? Can we get there?"

"You can get there by subway. It should take about half an hour," said Yang Ke.

"Then let's take the subway! We'll leave at 6:30 and arrive there around 7:00. But how about we go to the cafeteria to have some food first?" Wei Ping suggested.

The reason I take the subway is because it is not congested.

Half an hour is just half an hour.

Going to the cafeteria to eat is the fastest way.

If you eat out, it might be eight o'clock before the food is served.

"Okay, everything is up to you!"

They could have gone half an hour earlier.

However, because of the stampede, they still had a lot of patients that they hadn't seen.

This caused their plans to change.

"Okay, let's go to the cafeteria and get something to eat."

"Can."

"Then let's go!"

Wei Ping turned off the computer and then stood up.

Just as they were about to go out, they saw the dean walking towards them, looking exhausted.

"Xiao Wei, luckily you are still here! I have something to talk to you about!" said Dean Zhang.

"Dean, what's wrong?!" Wei Ping was a little confused.

At this time, hasn’t the dean finished get off work yet?

Yang Ke was even more confused.

What does the dean want to see Wei Ping about at this time?

The dean has been looking for Wei Ping quite frequently recently.

The old dean was not like this before.

"You guys did a great job today. The small team rescued 33 people, and you single-handedly saved 21 of them. You also made a crucial decision, which was to activate ECMO! You saved a little girl. Based on your deeds last time, the hospital is planning to award you a Third Class Merit! I've brought you the certificate!"

After saying that, he handed over the certificate and Wei Ping took it.

The above is really a third-class merit.

There is also a reward of one thousand yuan.

But I don’t know when the money will arrive.

Wei Ping couldn't handle this.

Why would Dean Zhang do this?

Is there any reason?

"Director, regarding the activation of ECMO to save that patient, is there anything..."

Wei Ping asked.

After all, activating ECMO to save a patient is what a doctor should do.

Although the startup cost is very high, this money must be spent, otherwise people will die.

And someone must be held responsible for this kind of public event!

The city will also step in at that time.

The hospital is not afraid of not getting the money!

Saving so many people is normal, but he just saved a few more people.

But these things are not enough to support a third-class merit.

Therefore, the problem must be with ECMO.

Dean Zhang chuckled.

"You're really smart. You're right, it's related to ECMO."

"Please enlighten me, Dean!"

"Do you know what the identity of patients using ECMO is?" Dean Zhang suddenly asked.

"I don't know!" Wei Ping didn't want to know. In his eyes, there were only patients.

Nothing else.

"She is Shen Lian, the daughter of Shen Fang, CEO of Magic City Xinling Technology Company!"

"And then?" This made Wei Ping feel confused.

He didn't pay attention to these things.

But Yang Ke was paying attention.

"Modu Xinling Technology Company is the first company in China to research the localization of ECMO! And it recently said that it has mass-produced 300 units!" Yang Ke said.

Dean Zhang looked at Yang Ke with appreciation.

“That’s right!”

"And then? I saved his daughter? And for that, he gave me a third-class merit?"

"Yes!"

"Why? But isn't saving people what we should do? How can it be considered a credit?"

"You don't know. ECMO is now blocked by foreign countries. Every use costs a huge price. And the process of localization has been ongoing. You activated ECMO to save Shen Lian and made Shen Fang realize the importance of this artificial lung to patients!

So, to thank us, he decided to donate ten domestically produced ECMO machines to our hospital! He also said he would accelerate research on second-generation ECMOs and strive to surpass those abroad!

Dean Zhang said so.

Wei Ping finally understood.

That is to say, he made this happen.

If it were someone else, ECMO might not be used.

But Wei Ping did it.

Let Shen Fang make such a decision.

That is what all hospitals in China dream of.

Yang Ke continued, "I heard that the price of ECMO machines produced by their company is one-fifth of that abroad, and their consumables are only one-tenth of the foreign price! The quality is not inferior to that of foreign products at all. They are truly the pride of domestic products."

Yang Ke can accept much more levels than Wei Ping.

Also because her father works in a pharmaceutical company.
