Chapter 354: Accidental Throwing Knife Surgery

Dewey and Chen Qi came out of the hotel, their expressions relaxed.

One is to complete a request for help from a subordinate, and the other is to complete the appearance at the World Society of Hand Surgery, and no one can snatch the title of the inventor of foster replantation from then on.

The two walked the streets of Bonn, walking and chatting casually.

"Professor Dewey, what's next for the Surgical Conference? Isn't it too casual to have only 3 days of plenary sessions in a week, and 4 days to group discussions or free time for each society? ”

In Chen Qi's concept, it is not easy to go abroad to participate in a world-class surgical conference, which of course should be a race against time, listening to reports and lectures every day, and listening to the latest technology of others.

In this way, I can constantly improve my knowledge, improve the clinical level of my specialty, and not waste everyone coming from all over the world.

How can there be a time similar to free scheduling?

Could it be that those foreigners are sleeping in hotels like the Chinese delegation? Isn't that a waste of life?

Who knew that Professor Dewey smiled when he heard this, and said a little proudly:

"Chen, you don't understand why the General Assembly of the Surgical Society does not have a fixed place, but is held in turn among countries, which is actually a benefit to the host country."

"Benefits?"

In Chen Qi's concept, such world-class medical conferences are generally closely related to major pharmaceutical companies.

For example, those pharmaceutical giants sponsor conferences, and all conference expenses, transportation expenses, and accommodation expenses are all covered, such as the previous ICPF Han. City Conference.

In the same way, doctors or major medical associations that cooperate with the giants will help to promote a certain drug or device, and everyone will benefit each other.

But why is it related to "welfare"?

Because of the local hotel, transportation and other service industries?

Dewey knew that Chen Qi was just a doctor from behind China, and that he had been elected to the board of directors for less than a year, and he didn't understand many unspoken rules, so he took the initiative to explain:

"Chen, do you think that holding a global academic conference in a certain country, gathering the world's top doctors, and many experts and professors who can't usually be invited are coming in person, is it a good opportunity for patients?

Therefore, many rich and powerful people will come from all over the country to ask these top doctors for treatment. If a top doctor has an operation that he can't handle, he can take out the case, and there are many top doctors to discuss and operate together.

If you think about it, is this a great opportunity? For example, when we are meeting in Bonn now, the sick rich people in West Germany have already contracted all the major hospitals, and even many from neighboring countries, just waiting for the top doctors to fly knives. ”

Oh~~~

Chen Qi understood, no wonder the schedule of the meeting was not tight, and he deliberately set aside 4 days to arrange it freely.

It turns out that these four days are for the doctors to go out and earn extra money.

Thinking of this, Chen Qi was a little lost, thinking that he was a little doctor from Huaguo, who wanted no name and no money, no wonder he didn't receive an invitation.

Professor Doon didn't see the change in Chen Qi's expression, but was very interested, and leaned closer and said:

"Chen, you know what? You had a cleft lip and palate repair combined with rhinoplasty in the country of sticks, and the results were very good, and now it has long been spread among celebrities around the world, so this time you came to Bonn, there are already 15 surgeries waiting for you. ”

Before Chen Qi could be pleasantly surprised, Professor Doon complained again:

"Chen, you don't know how difficult it is to get a visa in your country, and it is almost impossible to apply for a private jet route, so those rich people can't come to China to ask you to help, this time I knew that you were coming to Bonn, and I had already made an appointment with you."

Chen Qi now understands why Professor Doon is so enthusiastic to help him introduce the people of the FSSH Society today, it turns out that he played the role of pimping.

Foreigners are still very realistic, favors belong to favors, and business belongs to business.

Then Chen Qi thought of the repair technique he did in the country of sticks, and the chaebol gave 200,000 US dollars in one go.

So if 15 surgeries are performed in West Germany this time, each for $200,000, then there will be 3 million US dollars?

Is this the rhythm of making a fortune?

Sure enough, although plastic surgery and those top cardiac surgery, brain surgery, and liver surgery are not at the same level in terms of technology, they are definitely better than each other in terms of income.

After all, everyone loves beauty, especially for the appearance and future of their children, so they are more willing to invest.

Think about the female celebrities, female Internet celebrities, and female billionaires in later generations for plastic surgery, the banknotes they put down are sky-high, and it is not uncommon for any beauty injection to be hundreds of thousands, or even millions.

Chen Qi was about to salivate when he thought of so much money, so he asked weakly embarrassedly:

"Professor Doon, are these rich people generous?"

Professor Dewey laughed:

"Chen, you are different from other Chinese doctors I know, Chinese people don't seem to like money, and when they talk about money, they feel like they are insulting them, but I don't see this kind of nobility in you."

Chen Qi pouted: "Eat with your own skills, there's no shame in not stealing or robbing, I have to fight for my own interests, right?" ”

"Very correct, Chen, your logical thinking is very Westernized, I really doubt that you studied in Europe and the United States. Since there is a director of the ICPF Society who personally takes charge of the operation, the labor fee is naturally the top, according to the rules of flying knives, it should be about 50,000 US dollars. ”

Chen Qi was still a little disappointed when he heard that it was $50,000, thinking that these European big-nosed shots were not as bold as sticks.

However, even if it is 50,000 US dollars, it is definitely a huge amount of money in 1985, even in developed countries in Europe and the United States, the per capita income is only 1~20,000 US dollars.

The income of Huaguo's employees is even worse, even if the salary is increased several times, Chen Qi, the vice president who enjoys the treatment of the main department, has a legal income of only 2,500 yuan a year (not counting subsidies).

For a small worker like Lan Lijuan, there is no subsidy in internal medicine, and her annual income is about 1,500 yuan, which is only 500 US dollars when converted into US dollars.

But then, Chen Qi smiled again, because after 15 surgeries, he could personally get at least more than 700,000 US dollars.

Not to mention that he is the richest man in Yuezhong, at least he is the richest man in his hometown of Xingtang Township.

It's no wonder that those medical talents are going abroad, it's too easy for foreign doctors to make money.

Ordinary doctors earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, and well-known doctors earn millions of dollars.

If it is a top doctor, it is not a legend to earn tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars a year.

In European and American countries, doctors are not only rich, but also have a fairly high social status.

For example, in English, both doctor and doctor are called doctor.

Look at Chen Qi again, he did 15 cleft lip and palate repairs a day in the Fourth Hospital of Vietnam, and the subsidy was at most more than 10 yuan, about 4 US dollars, which is already the highest salary in China.

In comparison, the gap is huge.

Thinking that he could count the money until his hands cramped, Chen Qi was a little impatient:

"Mr. Professor, when will these surgeries start? I want to serve the little sick right away. ”

"Hahaha, Chen, you are really funny, the operation is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, you will see the patient first tomorrow, and all the preoperative information checks are ready. But can you afford 15 surgeries a day? One thing I want to tell you is that the surgery must be of the perfect level. ”

Chen Qi patted his chest: "No problem, I am a well-known fast rusher, I have no less than 300 surgeries per month in Huaguo, and there has been no mistake so far, so I am confident!" ”

Suddenly, Chen Qi seemed to think of something, and said with a little embarrassment:

"But I'm coming out on behalf of our country, and all my actions must be under the command of the leader, and I may violate discipline by going to surgery privately, which is a headache."

Doon was unimpressed:

"It's okay, I'll send you a formal note tomorrow in the name of the ICPF to your Chinese delegation, and you can make it clear that you are doing teaching surgery on behalf of the ICPF directors, and they have no reason to object."

Chen Qi was happy when he heard it, thinking that this little old man from the moldy country is really a caring person, and he has served him in one stop.

In fact, what Chen Qi didn't know was that although he got some money, the favor was all on Professor Dewey.

The president of an international medical association like Professor Dewey will not be short of money if he is forced to put it there, so he attaches more importance to connections and international influence.

Otherwise, how could he be so kind, the two of them are using each other for themselves.

There is a good saying: only profit is eternal.

The next day, when Chen Qi went to a hospital in Bonn, where the operation was performed, he found that all the members of the ICPF who had come to attend the surgical conference had arrived.

Although the three new cleft lip and palate surgeries invented by Chen Qi have been published in the New England Journal of Medicine, and doctors from various countries have also performed simulations and surgeries, the results of the surgery have been greatly reduced without the guidance of the inventor.

So this time, Chen Qi publicly performed "teaching surgery" for the first time, and relevant specialists rushed here.

As a director of the ICPF, Chen Qi naturally has no possibility of hiding his secrets, anyway, he will not rely on these three surgeries to eat in the future.

By the time he started the operation the next day, there were more than 100 doctors in the operating room and observing the live CCTV broadcast outside the operating room, many of whom were local doctors in Europe.

Teaching surgery is very tiring, because the surgeon not only has to do the surgery well, but also has to explain constantly, explain repeatedly, and answer other people's questions from time to time.

So two days later, when Chen Qi came out of the University Hospital of Bonn, both legs were weak.

He started the operation at 7 o'clock in the morning and ended it at 10 o'clock in the evening, and the assistants were changed several times, and he insisted on the whole process with one main surgeon.

Of course, after one day of surgery, of course, the harvest is also very amazing.
