  Chapter 352 Accidental Flying Knife Surgery

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

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

   The two were walking on the streets of Bonn, chatting casually while walking.

  "Professor Dewey, how is the next schedule of the surgical conference arranged? Why is there only 3 days of a week's meeting for plenary meetings, and 4 days for group discussions of various societies or free communication time? Isn't this too casual?"

  In Chen Qi's view, if he could finally go abroad to participate in a world-class surgical conference, of course he should race against time, listen to reports and speeches every day, and hear how far his latest technology has come.

   Only in this way can we continuously improve our own knowledge and improve the clinical level of this major, and it is not in vain for everyone to come from all over the world.

   How can there be time similar to free arrangement?

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

   Who knew that Professor Dewey smiled and said proudly:

   "Chen, you don't understand this. Why is there no fixed venue for the General Assembly of the Society of Surgery, but it is held in rotation among countries. This is actually a benefit for the host country."

"Welfare?"

  In Chen Qi's view, such world-class medical conferences generally have close relationships with major pharmaceutical companies.

  For example, those pharmaceutical giants sponsor conferences, all conference fees, transportation expenses and accommodation expenses are all included, such as the previous ICPF Seoul conference.

  Similarly, doctors or major medical associations who cooperate with giants will help to promote a certain drug or device, and everyone will benefit from each other.

   But why is it related to "welfare" again?

  Because it stimulates the local hotel transportation and other service industries?

  Dewey knew that Chen Qi was just a doctor who came from Huaguo, and he was elected as a director for less than a year, so he didn't understand many unspoken rules, so he took the initiative to explain:

"Chen, do you think that a global academic conference will be held in a certain country, and the world's top doctors will gather together, and many experts and professors who are usually not invited will come in person. Isn't this good for patients? a good chance?

  So many rich and powerful people will come from all over to ask these top doctors for treatment. If a top doctor has a surgery that he can't handle, he can take this case out, and many top doctors will discuss and operate together.

  Think about it again, isn't this a great opportunity? For example, we are holding a meeting in Bonn now. The sick rich people in West Germany have already hired major hospitals, and even many from neighboring countries are waiting for the top doctors to throw their knives. "

   Oh~~~

  Chen Qi understood, no wonder the schedule of the meeting was not tight, and he specially reserved 4 days for free arrangement.

   It turned out that these 4 days were prepared for the doctors to go out and earn extra money.

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

  Professor Du En didn't see the change in Chen Qi's expression, but was very excited, and approached and said:

"Chen, do you know? You did a cleft lip and palate repair combined with rhinoplasty in Bangziguo back then. The results of the operation were very good, and it has already spread among the world's celebrities, so this time you come to Bonn, already There are 15 surgeries waiting for you."

  Before Chen Qi was pleasantly surprised, Professor Du En 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 have no way to come to China to ask you to help. This time I know you are coming to Bonn. I made an appointment with you through me."

  Chen Qi now understands why Professor Du En is so enthusiastic about introducing people from the FSSH Society to him today. It turns out that he played the role of a pimp.

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

  Then Chen Qi thought of the prosthetic device he did in Bangzi Kingdom, and the chaebol gave him 200,000 US dollars in one go.

  Then if 15 surgeries are performed in West Germany this time, and one operation costs 200,000 US dollars, then it must cost 3 million US dollars?

  Is this the rhythm of making money abroad?

   Sure enough, plastic and cosmetic surgery is not at the same level as those top cardiac surgery, brain surgery, and liver surgery technically, but from the perspective of income, it is definitely more than equal.

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

  Thinking about those female stars, female Internet celebrities, and female billionaires in later generations, the money they cast for plastic surgery is sky-high. It is not uncommon for a single beauty injection to cost hundreds of thousands, or even millions.

  When Chen Qi thought of so much money, his saliva was about to flow out, so he asked weakly in embarrassment:

   "Professor Dunn, are these rich people generous?"

  Professor Dewey laughed out loud:

   "Chen, you are different from other Huaguo doctors I know. People in Huaguo don't seem to like money. Whenever you talk about money, you feel like you are insulting them. But I don't see this kind of nobility in you."

  Chen Qi curled his lips: "Eat with your own skills, there is 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 have studied in European and American countries. Since the director of the ICPF Society is the director of the knife, the labor fee is naturally the top. According to the rules of the flying knife, it should be in the Around $50,000."

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

   But even if it was 50,000 U.S. dollars, it was definitely a huge sum of money in 1985. Even in developed countries in Europe and America, the per capita income was only 10,000 to 20,000 U.S. dollars.

  The income of employees in Huaguo is even worse. Even after several salary increases, the legal income of Chen Qi, the deputy dean who enjoys the official-level treatment, is only 2,500 yuan a year (not counting subsidies).

  Small workers like Lan Lijuan, who have no internal medicine subsidy, earn about 1,500 yuan a year, which is only 500 dollars in US dollars.

   But immediately, Chen Qi smiled again, because after 15 operations, he can get at least more than 700,000 US dollars.

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

  It’s no wonder that those medical talents have to go abroad. It is really easy for foreign doctors to make money.

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

  If you are a top doctor, it is not a legend that you 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 high social status.

  For example, English words, doctors and doctors are called doctor.

  Looking at Chen Qi again, he does 15 cleft lip and palate repairs in the Fourth Hospital of Yuezhong, and the subsidy is at most more than 10 yuan, about 4 US dollars, which is already the highest salary in Huaguo.

  Comparing the two, the gap is huge.

  When he thought that he could count money until his hands cramp, Chen Qi couldn't wait:

   "Professor, when will these operations start? I want to serve the little patients right away."

"Hahaha, Chen, you are so funny. The operation is scheduled for the day after tomorrow. You will see the patient first tomorrow, and all the preoperative data checks are ready. But can you bear 15 operations a day? I want to explain to you, The surgery has to be of a flawless level."

  Chen Qi slapped his chest: "No problem, I am a famous fast-sought man. I perform no less than 300 surgeries per month in Huaguo, and I haven't made a single mistake so far, so I have confidence!"

  Suddenly Chen Qixiang thought of something, and said a little embarrassedly:

   "However, I came out on behalf of our country, and all my actions must be directed by the leaders. If I perform surgery without permission, it may violate discipline. This is a headache."

  Dune didn't care:

   "It's okay. I will formally send a note to your Huaguo delegation in the name of ICPF tomorrow. I can clearly say that you are performing the teaching surgery on behalf of the ICPF directors. They have no reason to object."

  Chen Qi was delighted when he heard it, thinking that this little old man from the country is really a caring person, and he has provided one-stop service.

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

  Presidents of international medical associations like Professor Dewey, if placed there, will not be short of money, so he values ​​contacts and international influence more.

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

   There is a good saying: Only benefits are eternal.

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

  Three new cleft lip and palate surgical procedures invented by Chen Qi have been published in the New England Journal of Medicine, and doctors from various countries have also imitated and operated on them, but without the guidance of the inventor, the surgical effect is greatly reduced.

  So this is the first time Chen Qi performed a "teaching operation" in public, and all relevant specialists rushed here.

  As the director of ICPF, Chen Qi naturally has no possibility of hiding his secrets. Anyway, he will not rely on these three operations for a living in the future. Of course, he knows everything and speaks endlessly.

  When he started the operation the next day, there were more than 100 doctors operating next to the operating room and watching the CCTV live broadcast outside the operating room, many of them 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 it repeatedly, and answer other people's questions from time to time.

  So 2 days later, when Chen Qi came out of the Bonn University Hospital, both legs were weak.

  He started the operation at 7:00 in the morning and ended at 10:00 in the evening. The assistants changed several batches, and he was the only surgeon who persisted throughout the whole process.

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