Chapter 21 Translation
The First Affiliated Hospital of Lingnan Medical College, with nearly 3,000 beds and an average daily outpatient volume of nearly 8,000 visits, can be said to be the best hospital in Lingnan Province.
In the imposing inpatient building, the office of the chief of neurosurgery.
"Lao Liu, just one day, no! Even if it's just for half a day! So many years of old friends, do me a favor! Liao Shengqi, director of neurosurgery, sat on a wide chair, frowned tightly, and said on the phone almost with a slight pleading.
As soon as he finished saying these words, the other end of the phone murmured for several minutes, and Liao Shengqi's face gradually flashed with disappointment, and finally he was extremely helpless and politely said a few words and hung up the phone.
He was only forty-five years old, but the hair in the center of his head had fallen out, and the circle of hair next to him was also messy at the moment, listlessly sticking to his scalp.
Seeing that he hung up the phone, a female doctor about thirty years old next to him hurriedly asked with concern: "Director, Director Liu, can he come?" ”
"I can't come."
Liao Shengqi shook his head, leaned back in his chair, and sighed in a low voice: "They have opened a small training class in the past two days, and there will be a class tomorrow, so I really can't leave." ”
The female doctor sighed in disappointment, and her eyes involuntarily turned to the mobile phone on the table, and the room fell into a different kind of silence.
After a while, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Come in!"
With Liao Shengqi's voice, a young doctor in his thirties pushed open the door and hurriedly walked in.
Seeing the young man, Liao Shengqi's eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up and asked urgently, "How is it?" Got in touch? Can you come? ”
"If you can come, his house is near our hospital, and he will be there within half an hour!" Without waiting for his breath to even, the young doctor replied simply.
"Great!"
Liao Shengqi's right fist slammed into his left hand, and a smile finally appeared on his face that had been gloomy: "Xiao Meng, you have done a good job in this matter!" Thank you so much! ”
After receiving the praise from the leader, Doctor Meng's eyes flashed with joy, but he hurriedly said modestly: "Director, you are polite, this is what I should have done." Besides, I was also lucky that my classmate came back from the United States for a vacation, otherwise I wouldn't have done anything. ”
Liao Shengqi, who was a little more relaxed, nodded and said: "Yes, your luck is good, I hope my luck will be good after a while, otherwise, this time our department and even our hospital will lose adults!" ”
"Director, I heard that Dr. Meng's classmates are studying internal medicine, and this major seems to be a little far behind!" At this moment, the female doctor on the side suddenly said with some concern.
Although he was a little unhappy when he heard this, Doctor Meng also understood that this was not the time to be reckless, so he hesitated for a moment, and nodded: "What Xiao Li said is very reasonable, my classmate is a nephrology doctor, if it is a text translation, of course it is no problem, but if it is an on-site translation, it may indeed be a little unsafe!" ”
"I can't care so much about it at this time."
Liao Shengqi waved his hand impatiently and said, "The conference will open tomorrow, where can I find a suitable translator in such a short time?" ”
Dr. Li was stunned, shook his head regretfully, and said nothing more. As the secretary of the department, she knows the origin of this matter best, and Liao Shengqi has no other better way at this time.
It's just that she still feels that something is wrong in her heart.
Interpreting at medical conferences is definitely not something that anyone can do well. Just like this academic conference, according to Liao Shengqi's previous requirements, it is necessary to have a high level of English, be familiar with all the professional terms of neurosurgery, and even require a certain understanding of the latest research progress in neurosurgery. In fact, Liao Shengqi specially invited several neurosurgery directors from major hospitals in Kyoto, Changhai and other places to be the hosts, and they are all top domestic experts who have returned from studying in the United States or the United Kingdom.
Dr. Li knows this, but why doesn't Liao Shengqi understand it in his heart?
In September this year, he just sat down as the vice chairman of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Medical Association, and he was in high spirits. Not to mention that many old friends in the industry are coming, the leaders of the hospital are coming, and the teachers who studied in the United States will also come to give academic reports.
"I only hope that he can translate seventy or eighty percent accurately, so that at least it is reasonable." Liao Shengqi said with a wry smile.
Dr. Li had no choice but to nod with some regret, but as if he suddenly remembered something, he raised his head and asked, "Director, what about the other two people I contacted?" Do you still let them come? ”
Two other people were contacted?
When Physician Meng heard this, he was slightly taken aback.
"Let's let them come over!"
After hesitating for a moment, Liao Shengqi still nodded and said: "Anyway, there is still time, let's try it after the three of us arrive, and use which one is suitable!" ”
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
"That's the way it happened, because the director of Changhai Changzheng Hospital suddenly fell ill last night and couldn't come temporarily, so I had to find someone to be the on-site interpreter for him. As you all know, this is not a good job, and it can even be said to be very difficult, so I can only ask three of you to help. Looking at the three young people in front of him, Liao Shengqi said politely.
Sitting in the middle of the three was a young man in his thirties, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, very energetic, and said with a smile after listening to Liao Shengqi's words: "Director Liao, you are polite!" If we can help with this matter, we will definitely help, but I think Xiao Meng also told you, I am a nephrologist, and I am not particularly familiar with neurosurgery, especially if it involves cutting-edge research, it may be really difficult. ”
"Yes, I'm not a god, I'm still doing residency training, I'm afraid I'm really more than enough to be an on-site translator, Director Liao, if there is a better candidate, it's still 。。。。。。" A twenty-seven or eight-year-old woman sitting on the left also said with a frown.
The straightforwardness of the two made Liao Shengqi feel good, but when things came to this point, he really had no choice, so he had to shake his head and smile bitterly: "Since the two of you said so, I won't hide it from you, if there is a suitable candidate, I definitely don't want to invite you over!" Although there are a lot of people who come back from studying abroad in Lingnan Medical College and several affiliated hospitals, there are only three or two people who are extraordinary, and it is too late to invite people from other places, so you are the most suitable, after all, you are working in the United States now, isn't it? ”
After listening to Liao Shengqi's explanation, the young man had no choice but to nod and say, "I can only say that I have done my best!" ”
The other two also nodded at the same time, Liao Shengqi smiled gratefully, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, I happen to have a video of that expert giving a lecture at a foreign conference, wait for the three of you to try it first, how about it?" ”
The three of them nodded at the same time, although they were only entrusted to help, but after all, it was about the reputation of other departments, and it was still necessary to test it.
Liao Shengqi went back to the office to find the CD, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed.
Anyway, Liao Shengqi is also one of the bigwigs in the outside world of the domestic gods, plus his face has always been very ugly, and several young people are a little restrained, but now as soon as he goes out, several people greet each other.
Dr. Meng and the young man were classmates, and Dr. Li and the young woman were also very familiar, and it seemed that they couldn't run away from the classmate relationship, only Tian Lu sat alone on the sofa, waiting quietly.
Speaking of the process of Tian Lu and Liao Shengqi's acquaintance, it is quite dramatic.
At the beginning, the trainees in their class basically rotated between various departments in the hospital to get a general understanding of the work of clinicians. There is not much time for each department, the most is only one day, the least, or even just a turn.
And just when the neurosurgery department was taking a turn, Liao Shengqi remembered that there was a boy named Tian Lu in the seventh clinical class of the third year.
Lingnan Medical College attaches great importance to the education of students, and even such apprenticeships require the head of each department to attend classes in person as long as conditions permit. This is a formality, but the school has strict regulations, so although he is very busy with work, after checking the room that day, Liao Shengqi still came to the conference room of the neurosurgery department and gave a general introduction to the situation of neurosurgery.
Of course, there are so many classes in one grade, and if each class comes to such a time, Liao Shengqi is very annoyed, so the content of the lecture is repetitive and simple, nothing more than what the gods do, how fast the development of the gods is outside, and everyone is welcome to join the ranks of the gods in the future, some are absent-minded, but out of the corner of his eye, an ordinary boy immediately attracted Liao Shengqi's attention!
After talking about the beginning, Liao Shengqi asked the secretary to go on in detail, and he slowly walked behind the boy.
"Are you looking at it seriously, or are you flipping through it?"
After looking at it for a while, Liao Shengqi suddenly asked.
The boy was holding the original English version of "Neurosurgery (Fifth Edition)" in his hand, but he turned the pages as fast as if he was reading a Chinese book, making it hard for Liao Shengqi to believe that he was reading seriously. But the boy's preoccupied expression seemed to indicate that he understood the content!
"Of course I'm looking at it carefully."
Tian Lutou replied casually without replying.
After changing a few subjects, all he heard was almost empty content, and he had long lost interest, so he just found a book from the bookcase next to him that seemed to be very bullish and read it: in his opinion, books that dare to add their names in front of neurosurgery are all cow books! The books in the conference room were originally open to all doctors, and no one stopped him, but at first glance, Tian Lu was a little engrossed, and he didn't come back to his senses until he started lecturing. At this time, he was still tackling those basic courses such as physiology and pathology, and he had not yet learned clinical courses, so he didn't understand a lot of things in them, but those wonderful languages fascinated him.
"Oh? Tell me about the general content of this chapter! ”
Liao Shengqi couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied, and his tone suddenly became much heavier!
In his opinion, such a professional book, no matter how good he learned English, it was impossible to understand. Not to mention anything else, there are a lot of professional vocabulary that even he has to look up to figure it out, not to mention that he is a junior in college? Because of the anger of being forced to give lectures to undergraduates, it slowly rose again.
Fascinated by it, Tian Lu also heard that something was wrong at the moment, and quickly turned around to see that the director of the neurosurgery department was standing behind him, looking at himself with an unkind face.
Ye Lan's worried gaze on the side also floated over at this moment.
Although he was a little flustered in his heart, after discovering the disdain in Liao Shengqi's eyes, Tian Lu was angry in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Of course you can!" ”
"The title of this chapter is "Applied Immunology Related to the Pathogenesis and Treatment of Brain Tumors", and the main content is 。。。。。。"
In this paragraph, the author of this chapter focuses on the reality that the results of the existing research show 。。。。。。"
。。。。。。
Soon, the anger in Liao Shengqi's heart miraculously disappeared!
As a neurosurgeon who had studied abroad for three years, he only listened to a few words and understood: the young man in front of him must not be examined with the eyes of an ordinary junior student!
"Okay, let's put down this book and take a look at this one!"
Liao Shengqi pondered slightly, waved his hand to interrupt Tian Lu's explanation, took out another original book of "Neurosurgery" from the bookcase, and handed it to Tian Lu.
At this time, the secretary of the department finished his lecture, waved his hand, and took the classmates in the class to visit the ward, and in Ye Lan's worried eyes, Tian Lu was left behind.
Taking the book in Liao Shengqi's hand, Tian Lu did not open the book, but looked at the pricing on the back cover for the first time.
"Hey!"
There was a strange laugh in his heart, and the corners of Tian Lu's mouth twitched slightly.
Like "Eumans Neurosurgery" just now, the original book of medicine is really ridiculously expensive!
After seeing Tian Lu's movements and expressions, Liao Shengqi suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
That's right, the original medical book is very expensive, but it is really nothing for the neurosurgery department of the First Affiliated Hospital, Liao Shengqi bought several sets of these two books at one time, one for himself, one for the Corey conference room, and the rest for a few young doctors in Corey: for the cultivation of talents, he has always spared no effort.
Snatching the books in Tian Lu's hand, Liao Shengqi quickly flipped to a position and handed it back: "Just this chapter, if you can translate it on the spot, I will give you these two books!" ”
"Really?"
Tian Lu's eyes immediately widened!
To be honest, he was really tempted: although he didn't know much about it for the time being, among all the majors, Tian Lu was obviously the most interested in neurology, otherwise he wouldn't have been immersed in it after seeing the book "Neurosurgery of Youmans". Although there are systematic teaching materials, it is also important for Tian Lu to understand the extent to which modern neuroscience has developed.
Of course, he didn't think about buying books, it was too expensive!
"Of course it's true, what I said doesn't count!" glared at Tian Lu angrily, Liao Shengqi was looking forward to it: What are the two books? If this kid really has this ability, the graduate school quota in two years can be set in advance.
"Good!"
"The title of this chapter is New Techniques for Craniotomy and is preceded by an introduction, which focuses on several emerging techniques, including 。。。。。。"
"Compared with traditional surgery, this technique has the following advantages: first, it avoids the risk and pain of craniotomy, and second, it ,。。。。。。"
Hardly thinking, the moment his eyes fell on the page, Tian Lu began to talk endlessly.
Liao Shengqi's eyes are getting brighter and brighter!
He has read this chapter many times, and naturally he can hear it as soon as he listens to it, and there are almost no errors in Tian Lu's translation! And what is even more commendable is that in the middle of the field road, I can't help but add a sentence of my own understanding of the content!
These understandings are all in terms of basic theories, although Liao Shengqi has no introduction at all, and can even be said to be full of mistakes, but that kind of open thinking and unbridled imagination made his heart tremble!
Is this really a junior?
When Tian Lu was halfway through the translation, Liao Shengqi waved his hand very kindly, preventing Tian Lu from continuing to speak, and then happily gave Tian Lu two sets of books. didn't leave Tian Lu's phone number, just a junior, Liao Shengqi didn't plan to let the other party have any special ideas, but firmly remembered the name of the boy in the seventh clinical class in his heart.
Now that he encountered an unexpected situation, Liao Shengqi immediately thought of this medical student who had surprised him after hitting the wall many times.
