Chapter 1571: This Guy Has Good Luck! (First Update)
Who doesn't want to be a salted fish?
Especially a salted fish that's not too salty!
For the first time, Xu Ziming realized that life doesn't always go as planned.
Professor Chen's words were really life-threatening!
To go and run for academician myself?
How can I be so shameless?
Thinking about it over and over again, Xu Ziming couldn't find any part of himself that resembles an academician!
After his morning shift, Xu Ziming locked himself in the office, thought to himself for a long time, and still couldn't find anything outstanding about himself!
He even wrote down on paper every skill he has, including his childhood skill of peeing accurately from a distance.
But!
Along with prostate enlargement, his only outstanding skill has been worn out by time.
Nowadays, only his lumbar disc protrudes!
What should be done?
Thinking about it over and over again, Xu Ziming called Liu Quan.
"Liu, come over here for a moment, I need to discuss something with you!"
After receiving the call, Liu Quan remained silent for a long time, and said with grievance: "Director, you asked me to come to check the past medical records..."
To be honest, he really didn't know whether he should come, or what he should say if he did come over!
Xu Ziming directly said, "Just hurry and come over!"
Three minutes later, Liu Quan stood in the office, trembling.
"Director, you go ahead!"
Xu Ziming sighed: "This year, regarding the academician nomination, do you think I have a chance?"
Liu Quan was stunned!
Thinking of Director Xu's situation, this was clearly a life-or-death question!
However, after hesitating for a moment, Liu Quan spoke truthfully: "Director, I think you do have quite a chance!"
Xu Ziming was taken aback: "What do you mean?"
Liu Quan suddenly asked: "Director Xu, think about why you're worried about this question first!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Ziming immediately fell into contemplation.
Seeing this, Liu Quan felt encouraged!
Good!
This question was well-asked!
Straight to the heart!
After much deliberation, Xu Ziming realized that he actually... wants to become an academician too; after all, it's the greatest honor for an academic researcher, representing the academic hall of fame.
Yet, the reason for his reluctance might be because he can't find any notable highlights?
After all, his academic achievements... are quite average.
Overall, there doesn't seem to be anything outstanding.
Suddenly, Xu Ziming was stunned!
No way!
It seems this year he actually received quite a number of honors.
Upon thinking this, Xu Ziming looked at Liu Quan with satisfaction.
Not bad!
Finally grown up!
Resolute, Xu Ziming candidly said: "Stay here and help me organize a personal profile, and also check online how many papers with impact factors I have this year. Find out which journals they're in and print them out for me!"
As he spoke, he took out a thick pile of documents from the cabinet, all containing information.
"2020 Master's Degree Mentor Selection Material"
"Appointment Letter for President of the Heart Valve Society"
...
After taking out various materials.
Suddenly, Xu Ziming was stunned!
Because he found that he didn't know, but unknowingly, he actually had so many materials?
Impossible!
How did his honors and awards suddenly increase so much?
So many appointment letters from society presidents and honorary presidents.
There's even a director appointment from the European Medical Society?
This is...
AATS membership certificate!
This is the 2020 AATS Conference Award Certificate!
This is the Capital's Best Contribution Award for Emergency Cardiovascular Surgery?
This is...
The more Xu Ziming looked, the more shocked he became!
Even having an epiphany-like feeling...
Turns out, I, Xu Ziming, have unknowingly become so outstanding!?
Upon organizing everything, Xu Ziming was somewhat floating.
Suddenly, he realized that he was actually quite excellent.
At this moment, Liu Quan had organized the papers collected online as well!
Somewhat surprised, he said: "Director, you published 3 SCI papers as the first author this year, with an impact factor of 31 points, 8 papers as the second author, with an impact factor of 60 points, and as a supervising teacher... Oh, two papers, with an impact factor of 9 points."
"This year, your impact factor reached 100 points!"
After saying that, Liu Quan was shocked by this number!
Xu Ziming was even more stunned.
Turns out, I, old Xu, am actually quite excellent?
After some preparation, Xu Ziming was still somewhat uneasy.
He himself... ultimately lacks any major awards!
The three major awards, not even one.
Is being an academician not likely?
Generally speaking, at least to be an academician, one should have the value of an academician!
Either fill a gap in a certain field in the country, or... be a particularly renowned academic heir, or win a major award...
I seem to be none of these?
In the afternoon, Xu Ziming tidied up the organized materials and went to the emergency department.
Upon seeing Chen Cang, Xu Ziming was just as nervous as Liu Quan.
"Professor Chen, I'm here!" Xu Ziming smiled obsequiously.
Chen Cang raised his eyebrows.
"What's up?"
Xu Ziming gave an awkward smile: "Well... Professor Chen, I've been thinking for a long time, I feel about the academician nomination..."
"Hmm! If I don't do it, someone else will, right?"
"I feel that having followed Professor Chen for so long, I can't let down Professor Chen's prestige, I must compete."
Actually, Xu Ziming wasn't wrong!
Among the group of people in the emergency center doing cardiac surgery, it's really only Xu Ziming who's qualified!
If there was anyone else slightly attentive.
Chen Cang wouldn't bother fighting on this guy's behalf.
Chen Cang said thoughtfully: "Hmm, at least you have some ambition."
Actually, Xu Ziming does have ambition.
After all, when learning clinical skills and surgery with Chen Cang, he never fell short.
But for these awards, honors, titles, and such, he doesn't care at all.
Others are uniformly at the top second-tier level, he's still at the top third-tier.
And moreover…
The key is, this guy isn't worried at all.
This makes Chen Cang somewhat feeling that iron can't be forged into steel.
However, Chen Cang forced himself, he can't always focus on his shortcomings.
Actually, Xu Ziming's greatest strengths are loyalty, practical work, and love of learning!
Maybe such people are more suited for research and clinical work, not so much being a director!
Yet, Wu Tongpu somehow made Xu Ziming a director.
Really blind!
But, Wu Tongpu actually isn't stupid, Dean Wu himself is from the cardiovascular surgery field, being extremely familiar with it.
When the emergency center was first established, he personally led the cardiac surgery.
Afterwards, handed it over to Xu Ziming.
It's clear, Dean Wu Tongpu is quite accurate in judging people.
Over these years, the cardiac surgery, although not emerging suddenly, is definitely steadily progressing.
The year with the fastest growth is actually this year.
But this is also riding Chen Cang's coattails!
Upon careful thought, Chen Cang suddenly realized, Xu Ziming's greatest advantage is: good fate, many benefactors!
