"Commander Gu, it's like this: Comrade Jiang Tiecheng has not received systematic medical training; he is only self-taught."
"so what?"
Gu Tinghui thought there was nothing wrong with what he said.
Upon hearing this, Li Shucheng stared at Gu Tinghui with wide eyes in surprise.
"Commander Gu, didn't you understand what I said?"
This Comrade Jiang Tiecheng was not a medical student at all, nor did he receive any systematic training. He was self-taught and had no teachers.
"I understand."
He had no teacher; he was self-taught. What's wrong with that? Is it impossible to be self-taught?
Gu Tinghui looked at the people in front of him with a sullen face. He wondered if these people had something wrong with their brains.
"If it weren't for Commander Gu, you probably wouldn't understand. Self-taught talent can be useful in other fields, but it doesn't exist in the field of medicine."
"In other words, there is a lot of practice required in medicine, and there are many things that need to be taught by a mentor."
It's impossible for Jiang Tiecheng to have achieved this solely through self-study; in other words, this surgery was a lucky accident, a stroke of pure luck.
You absolutely cannot let Comrade Jiang Tiecheng continue treating patients like this; doing so would endanger their lives.
Li Shucheng felt he had made himself clear enough.
Unexpectedly, Gu Tinghui burst into laughter upon hearing this.
"Dr. Li, I understand now that I've heard what you've said."
Don't worry, Jiang Tiecheng was originally one of my soldiers. He's a soldier, and the chances of him treating others in the future are extremely slim.
“He’s a promising talent. I’m going to focus on nurturing him so he can become an outstanding soldier, not a doctor.”
"Besides, even if we let him treat patients, we can't cure difficult and complicated diseases in our small town. If we can't cure them, we can only go home and wait to die."
Even if it's just a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse, I believe these local patients don't care whether Jiang Tiecheng is a blind cat or not!
"For most people, all they want is a glimmer of hope. They're willing to try even if there's only a one percent chance."
Li Shucheng became anxious upon hearing this.
"Commander Gu, you can't ignore this matter."
Jiang Tiecheng's skills are completely inadequate; this could really lead to a major disaster.
"You doctors from the city are making a mountain out of a molehill, especially for people from our area."
Even a common cold can be fatal, let alone serious illnesses.
It's already a miracle that someone can treat your illness. How many people do you think would be willing to come from a place like ours?
Would you, with your superb medical skills, be willing to come here?
"Can you endure this hardship?"
These words immediately left Li Shucheng and the dozen or so others speechless.
For them, they would never have come here if it weren't for this successful case of cardiac surgery.
The conditions in this countryside are too harsh, especially since this isn't even considered a proper countryside.
They persevered through just one week.
The conditions in the military reclamation area here are worse than in other places; the food and accommodation are not good.
Having them come here to be doctors is something they never even imagined.
Looking at the expressions on their faces, Gu Tinghui smiled.
"See, you all don't want to come."
We can only try our luck, like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse. Whoever that blind cat is, everyone is willing to give it a shot.
As long as there is hope of survival, who wouldn't want to live? And if there were good doctors available, wouldn't we all want to see them properly?
Li Shucheng and his dozen or so men were instantly rendered speechless.
What are the conditions like here?
They understand better than anyone else how scarce equipment and medical supplies are here.
These days they have also seen the longing in the eyes of those patients.
Those patients wanted to live, they wanted to live a good life.
Just then, someone shouted.
"Report!"
"Come in!"
Xiao Liu from the sanitation team walked in excitedly, holding an application report.
"Commander, Dr. Jiang has agreed to operate on Wang Xiaohu, our team member."
"This is a family member of one of our team members. I'm here to get your signature. If you sign it, our team can reimburse 50% of their medical expenses."
"That will finally put Company Commander Wang at ease."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shucheng grabbed Doctor Liu's hand in a hurry.
They snatched the application report, which also included medical records.
After reading the detailed explanation of the illness, Li Shucheng became anxious.
"Isn't this ridiculous?"
Commander Gu, you can't agree to this. Even if it's just a lucky guess, you can't just do it recklessly!
The heart disease this child currently has is something that no cardiac surgeon in China can treat.
Currently, no one in China has successfully performed such a surgery.
"Jiang Tiecheng actually used a child for experiments, that's too vicious."
The other dozen or so doctors also passed around the case file, and when they finished reading it, everyone's face showed an expression of anger that looked like they wanted to tear someone apart.
"Commander Gu absolutely cannot do this. This is simply too childish."
“This child can live for another six months if he doesn’t have surgery, but if he has surgery now, it will kill him.”
"Commander Gu, you can't do this."
"This is simply morally bankrupt."
Dr. Liu snatched the application report back, his face showing a resolute expression.
"You've gone too far."
Comrade Jiang Tiecheng has personally told me that there is a high chance of successful surgery in this case.
Last time, our Company Commander Li had a 5% chance of success and could still make the surgery a success. Moreover, this time Comrade Jiang Tiecheng also said that the success rate is as high as 80%.
The success rate is much higher than that of Company Commander Li Jinhu's heart surgery.
How can you doubt Comrade Jiang Tiecheng's intentions?
He genuinely wanted to save people and also had the ability to do so.
Xiao Liu glared angrily at the people in front of him.
Looking at the serious expression on Xiao Liu's face, Li Shucheng understood that every doctor wants to cure diseases and save lives.
"Dr. Liu, it's not a matter of how confident we are right now, but Jiang Tiecheng himself said that he is self-taught."
He hasn't received systematic training. Would you dare let a doctor like that go into surgery?
Aren't you just playing with this child's life?
We all want to save lives. We are doctors, and when we see patients suffering, we also want them to live.
But this is not an excuse to use others as guinea pigs.
Xiao Liu answered very firmly.
"Dr. Li, I know you are a well-known surgical expert in the province, but that does not affect my trust in Jiang Tiecheng."
Because he stepped forward and took on this responsibility during our most critical moment.
He did not seek fame or fortune.
He was also saving people.
