Night.

Four Seasons Hotel New York.

Banquet Hall.

It has long been set up as a high-class drinking party.

Uniformed and good-looking male and female waiters walk through the crowd to provide the most intimate service to the guests.

Guests in suits and leather shoes and bright dresses, holding champagne, gathered together in twos and threes, talking and laughing.

"Adam, let me introduce you, this is James Mulder, a professor at Columbia University School of Medicine. ”

Leonard took Adam to a black professor and introduced them to both sides: "James, this is Adam Duncan, my good friend, best-selling author, and future Columbia University medical student. ”

"Hello, Professor Mulder. ”

Adam greeted politely.

"Hello, Mr. Duncan. ”

James laughed: "I'm curious about Leonard's stinky temper, even we old guys can't stand it, how did you become good friends with him at such a young age?"

"Damn it!"

Leonard laughed and scolded, "I have a bad temper? Who was going to do it with people at every turn?"

"Who?"

James was 'dazed': "Isn't that you?"

"It's me!"

Leonard threatened, "Do you want to try again now?"

“ok，ok。 ”

James shrugged his shoulders and looked at Adam: "Leonard and I were medical school classmates, but then I chose to go back to my alma mater to become a teacher, and he stayed on the front line of the hospital. ”

"Come on. ”

Leonard said with disdain: "I was barely a hero back then, you?"

Adam smiled and watched the two bickering, in a good mood.

It can be seen that Leonard has a very good relationship with this James Mulder professor.

Also, whether in the East or the West, the feelings between classmates are special and one of the purest feelings.

At that time, everyone had not yet made a career, and there was still a trace of idealism in their hearts, and when they graduated and went into society, desperately earning money to climb up, after seeing all kinds of struggles, they cherished the simplicity more and more.

Of course, medical school is special, and the profession of doctor is full of competition from the beginning, which is a professional need.

Because you don't have the competitiveness and self-confidence of the second and third children, how can you control the life and death of patients in the future?

In many cases, the slightest hesitation can lead to the death of a patient.

The impact of life disappearing in one's own hands cannot cope with it without a strong enough psychological quality.

So the doctors, especially the top handful, are all self-confident to the point of being conceited, and they don't trust anyone but themselves.

This is the innate character that was screened out from entering the medical school, coupled with the hard work of the day after tomorrow, and finally charged towards the highest level of 'I am the best, and everyone here is garbage'.

Of course, in this process, the strength must also keep up, otherwise it will not be the most awesome, but the most stupid.

However, who is the most awesome and who is the most stupid, after a major operation, it is clear at a glance, and there is no self-deception and group deception at all.

I think I'm the best, that's really awesome.

The strong competitiveness required for growth makes medical students unique, but it does not mean that classmates are all strangers.

Compared with the competition for important positions with so many doctors in the future and the whole country, once the competition fails, most of them will choose to leave and start over in a new place.

This kind of exclamation was not obvious when he was a student, and when he was at an age like Leonard, he failed to compete and was depressed and could not get to the top of the position, and the competition for learning technology in the medical school days was like a beautiful fairy tale.

However, looking at the interaction between Leonard and Professor James Mulder, their relationship was very good in medical school, otherwise even if it was because of the close relationship between classmates, it was definitely not so close.

Also.

Although the competition in medical schools is much greater than that of ordinary schools and majors, friends also have to look at each other's eyes, and once they have the right eyes and become good friends, the competition is more like a goodwill game competition between friends.

Fun comes first.

After all, in the huge New York, with so many hospitals, can't you still accommodate yourself and a few good friends?

"So, Adam, you're a best-selling author, how do you think about going to medical school?"

James and Leonard argued for a while, and at the right time put their attention on Adam, and Leonard's intention to bring Adam on this occasion was self-evident.

"I like the nobility of a doctor to save lives. ”

Adam half-truthed: "This is incomparable to how much money you make." ”

"These are not empty words. ”

Leonard assisted: "Adam has had this dream since he was a child, when he graduated from high school and applied for college, he chose Columbia's biology department, and he also volunteered at New York University Medical Center, and now he has taken the MCAT, and is ready to apply for Columbia Medical School this year, step by step with a clear goal, at that time he was not a best-selling author." ”

"Rare!"

James nodded.

"And that's not all. ”

Leonard adds, "After becoming a best-selling author, he also spent money on medical equipment and practiced surgery in advance by hunting for three years, and I'm sure Adam was the best of the students in this class." ”

"It's amazing. ”

Now James really looked at Adam differently.

Dreaming from a young age, step by step, and clear goals, this can only be said to be a regular resume, the income and status of doctors are known even to children, and there are many more people who aspire to be doctors than those who aspire to be scientists.

Not at all.

But after making money, in order to get familiar with it in advance, I spend a lot of money to buy medical equipment and practice surgery by hunting, which is really rare.

Well, don't think about it if you don't have money.

Money once again blooms with its unique brilliance and weight at this moment.

As soon as James heard it, he knew that Adam's mouth was about saving lives and helping the wounded, which was really a dream to save lives.

It's not all ideas in words, it's business in mind.

No matter how nice it sounds, it's actually just for a higher income and status.

Even if the United States does not shy away from top to bottom that everything is about making money, sometimes the light of real dreams can still move people.

"I can't say Adam is the best in this class. ”

James praised, "But I believe Adam is definitely one of the best. ”

"Huh?"

Leonard was curious: "Is there anything better than Adam this time?"

He was too familiar with this old classmate, and after he exaggerated Adam so much, this old classmate still didn't echo his evaluation of Adam, and there was definitely a reason.

Thinking that this old classmate is a professor at Columbia University School of Medicine and one of the members of Columbia University School of Medicine who is responsible for the admission of new students, the news is far more well-informed than him, the attending doctor who is struggling in the front line of the hospital, he must have gotten some news......
