Chapter 2690: Chapter 2691: High Standard Treatment
“Director Gu, do you have connections in this area?”
Gu Jialin smiled and nodded, as if she had scored a point in front of Li Chuhan.
“I can’t say I have very strong connections, but I know some leaders at Mayo.” Gu Jialin said:
“Plus, I heard that the organizer of this event is Professor Stephen, a world-class expert in cardiac surgery. I attended his lecture back in the day, and we’ve exchanged insights in the field of cardiac surgery. As long as I say hello to him, we can definitely learn more than people from other countries.”
“But the problem is, there are people from other countries too. Would Professor Stephen be willing to help?”
“Actually, last night, I already had a phone call with Professor Stephen, and we talked a lot about the event.” Gu Jialin said:
“In the call, Professor Stephen also mentioned that he was willing to share everything he knows, so there’s no need to worry.”
Hearing this, everyone became excited.
They came here to exchange and learn.
Now with the opportunity of having an edge being close to the source, they naturally cherished it.
“Director Gu, then we’ll rely on you for this.”
“It’s small matter.”
“Everyone, stop chatting. Someone’s coming.”
Everyone looked towards the hospital entrance, seeing about a dozen people walking out.
Leading the group was an elderly man with white hair, wearing a white coat. Among his snowy hair were strands of black, and his face bore numerous age spots.
The man’s name was Stephen, a world-class expert in cardiac surgery.
Back when Li Chuhan worked here, she was under his tutelage.
So much so that many of her work habits had Stephen’s imprint.
“Professor Stephen is here!”
As a top figure in the medical world, even if everyone belongs to different fields, it does not affect Stephen’s reputation.
Anyone mixing in this circle doesn’t remain unaware of him.
If they aren’t aware, it means their skills aren’t up to par.
“Professor Stephen is heading towards us.”
Seeing Stephen approaching, everyone was quite excited.
The priority in treatment also made them feel a sense of pride.
“I’ll go say hello to Professor Stephen and chat with him.”
Seeing Gu Jialin’s back, someone said enviously:
“Though you can’t see the difference at home, once abroad, the gap is evident.”
“Isn’t that right, she can speak with Professor Stephen and even get special treatment, we don’t have that ability.”
“Due to Director Gu’s ability, she surely holds a place in China’s medical industry future.”
After whispering a few words, everyone adjusted their clothing to look presentable, aiming to greet this medical giant in their best state.
Gu Jialin beamed with confidence as she approached Stephen.
In her mind, she envisioned the scene a bit later.
The two would meet, exchange warm greetings, and then embrace.
With that, her status in this event would soar, maybe even to a leading role, and everyone would be more convinced of her!
As for Li Chuhan, she is no match for me!
But just then, Gu Jialin’s steps faltered, and even her expression froze.
Stephen suddenly changed direction about two meters away from her, heading towards Li Chuhan.
People witnessing this stopped in their tracks and automatically made way.
“Hey, Li, glad you could return. I remember the last time we met was three years ago when I visited China.”
It’s clear Stephen was a very warm person; upon meeting, he gave Li Chuhan a hug.
“Every meeting with you benefits me greatly. Your guidance has benefited me to this day.” Li Chuhan responded with a smile.
“You’re too modest. I swear to God, you were the best student I’ve ever had and the colleague I most want to work with, but you returned home, it’s so regrettable.”
“My country needs me, just like your country needs you.” Li Chuhan replied with a smile.
Seeing the two chatting happily, everyone was surprised.
Among those who came along, some knew Li Chuhan’s background, aware of her work experience at Mayo.
However, it’s known this was years ago, hence not considering this connection upon arrival.
Unexpectedly, she received such treatment immediately upon arrival.
This is amazing.
“Professor Stephen.”
As the two were speaking, Gu Jialin approached, forcing a smile, and greeted him to prove her presence.
Seeing Gu Jialin standing beside, Stephen paused and showed a look of confusion.
“Who are you?”
An awkward atmosphere spread infinitely.
Some people were even snickering.
After boasting earlier, now it’s clear that he doesn’t even recognize her.
“I’m Gu Jialin. I’ve been working at the Florida branch and returned half a year ago. I attended your lectures before and communicated with you.”
“Okay, okay, I remember. You called me last night, didn’t you?”
Seeing Stephen recall her, Gu Jialin brightened up, managing to save face.
“It was me.”
“The subject you mentioned yesterday, I find it quite interesting.” Stephen said:
“In my view, Li is already a world-class cardiac surgery expert. If there are things you don’t understand, you can seek her guidance often since she knows China’s national conditions better, able to give you more precise advice and help.”
“Understood…”
Gu Jialin’s expression turned extremely unpleasant.
She thought such an opportunity would boost her status in the team!
Unexpectedly, Stephen asked her to learn from Li Chuhan!
What qualifies her!
On the other side, watching their interaction.
Lin Yi quietly considered, the woman who took the initiative won’t have much future development.
Director Zheng is the team leader for this event, yet she ignored him completely.
Such a person in the workplace may not necessarily fare well.
“Principal Lin, Director Li seems to have a good relationship with Professor Stephen.”
“She worked here right after graduation, and Stephen was her teacher. They’ve stayed in touch all these years.”
“In that case, things will be easier. I guess without my intervention, Director Li can get you in.”
“A little director doesn’t hold such power; we still need Director Zheng’s help.”
“Stop flattering me. Anyway, with Director Li’s connection, getting in isn’t a problem.” Zheng Tiejun said with a smile.
