Chapter 671: Chapter 602: Talent Scout Chapter 671: Chapter 602: Talent Scout Setting up a “branch” in the 301 aligns with Yang Ping’s idea. It would facilitate the rapid promotion of new technologies, thus allowing more individuals to benefit from them.

This aligns not only with his initial intent of being a doctor but also with the system’s reward mechanism, achieving two objectives at once.

The system rewards new technologies with points, the most critical factor being the magnitude of the technology’s contribution to medical science. Where is this contribution reflected? It’s manifested in how much medical advancement can be directly or indirectly advanced, and how many people can be directly or indirectly treated.

Yang Ping’s next research topic–cloning muscle, requires a tremendous amount of points for support.

Therefore, he readily accepted Professor Qin’s invitation. He doesn’t mind flying to Beijing often to promote the new technology as soon as possible.

Professor Qin Shi, dressed in his neat military uniform, his assistant carrying his document bag, toured Sanbo Hospital accompanied by Director Han.

If the previous tour was rather brisk, this one was very thorough. He was examining Sanbo Hospital up close to prepare for a future possible acquisition.

Sanbo Hospital’s most significant advantage is its expansive space, which provides immense room for development.

The current accommodation provided for Yang Ping is an independent eight-story building, a luxury that other hospitals could not afford.

Moreover, Sanbo Hospital has a flexible system. Yang Ping’s Comprehensive Surgery Department, an innovative composite of research and clinical practice, is a rarity among other hospitals in the country.

Yang Ping’s Comprehensive Surgery Department also has a great degree of autonomy in financial and personnel matters.

In terms of professional rankings, Sanbo Hospital has always given Yang Ping the green light. His exceptional promotions to deputy chief physician and associate professor were rare for a person under thirty in the nation.

Additionally, the foresight and courage shown in identifying and nurturing such a promising individual are precious.

Professor Qin Shi and the 301 began to take notice of Yang Ping when his talents began to emerge. His winning the Golden Knife Award and his remote surgery for astronauts in the United States drew attention from upper-level authorities, and consequently from the 301.

However, when Director Han and Dean Xia of Sanbo Hospital discovered Yang Ping, he was still a wild seedling.

Professor Qin Shi inevitably held Director Han and Dean Xia of Sanbo Hospital in higher esteem.

Just observing the eight-story building from the outside wasn’t enough, Director Han took Professor Qin Shi into the Comprehensive Surgery Department to visit the laboratory.

The laboratory spans three stories and is equipped with very advanced equipment, with several machines worth over ten million.

Upon further examination, it was discovered that Sanbo Hospital is supported by a corresponding charity foundation. This charity foundation has a fund specifically for supporting Yang Ping’s research. The largest contributor is the Anning Group, demonstrating how versatile and dynamic the sources of research funding can be.

Standing in front of the eight-story comprehensive surgical building, Professor Qin Shi furrowed his brows. Yang Ping agreeing to his invitation was definitely giving him, and the 301, a lot of face. With the current conditions, Yang Ping did not necessarily require those ten beds.

“The research fund account currently holds several hundred million, and there are also several hundred million waiting to be deposited,” Director Han explained without concealing anything, revealing all details to Professor Qin.

Professor Qin didn’t say anything for a long time, his face looking slightly flushed.

In the investigation into Yang Ping, much emphasis was on his family and educational background. But Professor Qin Shi had no idea about the research fund specifically serving him.

Professor Qin rubbed his temples. Things were far off from what he had imagined. He had to revise all his plans. If he really wanted to bring in Yang Ping, he would need to match or exceed the conditions of Sanbo Hospital, which wouldn’t be easy.

At this point, Professor Qin felt quite uncomfortable, he had severely underestimated Sanbo Hospital.

“Professor Qin–” Director Han called out.

Professor Qin Shi was a little slow to respond. Director Han had to call his name several times before he finally responded, “I’d very much like to know why these companies are willing to generously fund Professor Yang’s research. As far as we know, Professor Yang has not yet received any research awards. His spinal external fixator is still underway and in clinical trials.”

While some scientists can attract large donations, there’s precedent in the country. However, it’s usually after they’ve made a name for themselves. Yang Ping hasn’t made a name for himself in research yet. So how did he manage to attract such a high amount of donations? To attract donations exceeding one hundred million, one would at least need to be an academician, and even then, not many can pull such significant research funds.

“You’d have to ask the bosses themselves. Even I can’t answer that,” Director Han didn’t want to delve deeper.

Professor Qin Shi fell into deep thought. If he wanted to successfully bring Yang Ping onboard, he had to become a talent spotter. How could he achieve this, like Director Han and Dean Xia did? Professor Qin Shi had no idea.

Ten beds and one team were far from being enough.

——
Upon hearing that Yang Ping and August were going to Germany, Robert and Takahashi requested to accompany them. As foreign students of Yang Ping’s, they wouldn’t want to miss such a highly complex spiral spinal surgery.

Besides, being seen with their professor often was a good way to maintain their visibility in front of him.

Although they are now renowned international doctors, they still can’t compare to their professor. They may count as world-famous boxing champions at most. However, with their professor, it felt like joining a secret superhero alliance, which operates on a different dimension.

Takahashi postponed his return to Japan. Since their passports allowed them visa-free travel to Germany, it was an excellent opportunity for brownie points with the professor.

“Professor, the Germans must be very unfamiliar with this type of surgery, right? Positioning the patient before surgery is a big challenge.”

Robert, instigated by Takahashi, went to persuade Yang Ping. Yang Ping replied indifferently, “They have specialized positioners. I will instruct them myself.”

“Professor, how could you assume the task of positioning the patient personally?” Robert shook his head.

“August is able to do it as well,” Yang Ping said.

“He won’t be enough by himself, ” Robert shook his head again.

Yang Ping looked at Robert, wondering what he was trying to say, to which Robert touched his red nose:
“What I meant to say is, we’re just sitting idle. If you take us to Germany, your workload will be considerably reduced. For instance, you won’t have to worry about positioning or maneuvering the patient. We’re more professional than anyone else in this. Plus, we can also assist during the surgery. We’re all-rounders.”

Robert flexed his pectoral muscles while talking.

Turns out they just wanted to tag along for the ride. Well, that could be helpful, considering Kori’s busy and Song Zimo can’t leave. Bringing them along could certainly be of some help, especially Robert with his large physique.

“Get ready. Once Dr. Ao notifies that they are prepared on their end, we’ll depart.”

“Yes, Professor!”

Robert walked out of the office, gesturing success to Takahashi who was waiting outside.

The two hugged in celebration.
