Chapter 650: Cheney's Cooperation
On Sunday, Professor Cheney of the Twin Cities Chiropractic Center in Minnesota, USA, led a delegation to Concorde.
The exchange team includes Cheney himself, a total of five people, and as a regular exchange, the size of this kind of team is already quite large.
Professor Cheney has made outstanding achievements in spine tumors, especially in total vertebral resection, and is also a representative of the European and American schools of this technology.
Cheney has the same strengths and weaknesses as an American, he is energetic and innovative, but at the same time arrogant and selfish in his bones.
At that time, he improved the total vertebral resection to make his new surgery the best total spine surgery in the world, and Professor Hu was very impressed with Cheney's surgical method, and he proposed that he would send someone to the Shuangcheng Crest to learn Cheney's new surgery.
But the arrogant and selfish Cheney rejected Mr. Hu, saying he must prioritize Americans' needs for further education.
But this time, Cheney actually brought the willingness to cooperate.
In the conference room of the Department of Orthopedics of Xiehe, Cheney met with Professor Hu and doctors from Xiehe, and Yang Ping was also regarded as a supernumerary doctor of Xiehe and participated in this academic exchange.
The operation does not start until 9 o'clock, and everyone meets in the conference room at 7 o'clock to exchange recent academic results and surgical experience.
That is, the two sides chatted with each other and sent some doctors to give short speeches.
"Professor Hu, it's a great honor to see you again, are you okay?" Cheney held Director Hu's hand.
Professor Hu didn't like Cheney as a person, but this did not affect the academic communication between the two teams.
Everyone sat down and had a salon-style exchange before watching the demonstration.
"Professor Cheney, we are very nice and welcome to China." Director Hu also greeted him politely.
Communication is conducted in English.
"I bring good news, around my new technique, I have designed a new set of equipment, don't you want to learn the new technique, this is an opportunity, we can fully cooperate, medicine knows no borders, we must share new technology."
Cheney was in high spirits, and he brought his new device to China for exchange, hoping to work with Concord to put the device clinical trial in China, so that he could use China's massive data to improve the device and shorten the FDA approval time.
"New equipment?"
Professor Hu had not heard of it before.
Professor Cheney beckoned, and the accompanying assistant took out a copy of the graphic materials from his bag, and Professor Cheney handed it to Director Hu: "You see, I have always kept in mind the desire for further study you mentioned last time, and if we can establish cooperation this time, we can give Xiehe a lot of training places, and I will personally teach the new surgical method of total vertebrectomy." ”
When did Cheney become so shared?
When did this noble spirit of internationalism come into being?
With questions, Director Hu took this graphic material and studied it carefully.
"Professor Hu, if we work together, our advanced technology and your abundant case resources can be combined to make amazing results."
"We're going to train you in the new procedure, you're going to use the new instrument to perform the surgery, and you're going to be the first person in Asia to use it."
"It's a coveted honor."
Cheney said proudly next to him.
Director Hu is very calm and calm, and he has no interest in being the first person to apply new technologies in Asia.
Although this is a way for many professors in China to become famous, Director Hu is not interested in this method, and he does not want to degenerate to the point of becoming the first person in Asia to use a new foreign device to obtain academic capital.
Director Hu finished reading the information and handed it to Yang Ping, who was sitting next to him.
Yang Ping took the information, just casually flipped through it, this set of devices is very immature, there are many potential safety hazards, if not improved, put it in the United States, you will not be able to get the FDA's clinical trial license at all.
However, this is a common method in European and American countries, putting immature medical devices into developing countries to do clinical trials, accumulating data, and then improving, improving to maturity, before using in their own countries.
Many of them are still under the guise of teaching advanced technology to make everyone think that they are doing good.
"How?"
Professor Liang, who was sitting next to Yang Ping, asked.
Professor Leung has retreated into the background, and usually participates in these academic conferences only as an audience, not as a leader.
"This set of devices is extremely immature, there are many potential safety hazards, and it should not be able to get a license for clinical trials in the United States in a short period of time." Yang Ping shared his opinion with Professor Liang.
Professor Liang snorted coldly, very angry.
Director Hu also heard Yang Ping's words, because everyone was in Chinese, and Cheney couldn't understand it at all.
Hearing Yang Ping's words, Director Hu was already very sure in his heart, just now he felt that this set of equipment was very wrong, very immature, and he was afraid that his judgment would be wrong, so he asked Yang Ping to help take a look at it.
"Cheney, why doesn't this device have FDA certification?" Director Hu returned the information to Cheney and said in English.
Cheney said disapprerovingly: "This is a new device, it has not yet been certified, and it takes too long to be approved for clinical trials in the United States, so it is better to put it in China." ”
"I'm sorry, Cheney, but in China, the approval is also very strict, and it is not easier than in the United States." Director Hu said coldly.
Cheney was a little displeased: "Don't you want to learn our latest tumor surgery methods, if we cooperate, we can give you a lot of places for further study, and we are doing a great cause, put it in China for clinical trials, you can add the process of device application, so that many patients in the world can enjoy the benefits of new technology as soon as possible, Professor Hu, you will also publish a lot of papers because of this cooperation, and become a leader in new technology in China." ”
"Cheney, your device has a lot of defects, it doesn't meet the standards of clinical trials at all, you may not know our China, we are also very strict with the management of these three types of devices, and your device can't even pass my level, let alone pass the audit."
Director Hu is neither humble nor arrogant, and his tone is very tough.
Not to mention that we don't need any new technology from you right now, even if we are eager to learn your new technology, we will not trade this in exchange.
Cheney originally thought that it would be easy to negotiate a cooperation, but he didn't expect to touch the dust.
"We can provide a funding, and there is no limit to the number of papers you can publish as the first author, Professor Hu, I am for the sake of our friendship, so I bring the sincerity of cooperation, to tell you the truth, the people who cooperate with us are waiting in line." Cheney's tone was very arrogant.
It seems that cooperating with you is to look up to you, and you don't know how to lift!
Director Hu smiled slightly: "Oh--- then it's simple, you ignore us and find those people in line to cooperate, we are not interested in this project, and we don't want to queue up." ”
"I don't think you understand this material at all, it contains the essence of all my new technologies, and it's no exaggeration to say that not many people can understand it, because most of them don't have the knowledge and experience to do so."
Cheney is a bit of a scoundrel thinker.
Both sides are ready to start taking turns lecturing for only ten minutes each, when the bell is over.
Song Yun asked Director Hu if he could start?
Cheney waved his hand, signaled and waited, he still had to have a good talk with Director Hu.
