Zhao Heng couldn't help but speak.

In any normal country, these things should be thought of and done immediately, right?

"Who wouldn't agree?"

Gao Jun also nodded, this is the fundamental difference in handling matters influenced by different cultures and national conditions, and sometimes this disparity is simply unimaginable.

In the observation room outside the operating theatre, Dean Liu Shangming and Director Yuan from the department stood together, looking into the surgery room through the transparent glass wall.

Director Yuan appeared to be a very refined middle-aged man, bespectacled, with a good temperament—clean and tidy, unlike some men who become greasy once they hit middle age.

This isn't surprising, though, for this is North City, a place full of hidden talents.

In a small county, a director-level position would make someone a significant local official, but in North City, the nation's premier site, directors are quite plentiful.

Nevertheless, the resources a departmental director can command are far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

"Dean Liu, Director Gao taking the initiative in crucial times, such dedication is worth learning from. This year, there is an outstanding individual slot available from the department for Eastern Hospital. I think it should go to Director Gao."

Director Yuan said leisurely, not everyone has the opportunity to directly interact with the senior official's family.

And as everyone knows, the senior official has a significant chance of being officially confirmed. At times like this, there are countless people in the department thinking about how to get closer to the senior official.

"Yes, Director Gao is indeed excellent."

Upon hearing Director Yuan's tacit hint, Liu Shangming understood what was going on. Gao Jun's background is well known, though not many knew it before. However, since Gao Jun became the Deputy Director of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Center, it has been widely acknowledged.

It's worth mentioning, Gao Jun previously kept a low profile, silently working in the role of an anesthesiologist for almost ten years.

This highlights the successful upbringing by the senior official as a father towards Gao Jun.

Whatever the past was, since becoming dean, Liu Shangming must consider the entire Eastern Hospital.

While many might think a dean's main job is to manage the whole hospital, that's not entirely true. While management is indeed a responsibility of the dean, there are dedicated vice deans and medical departments for these tasks.

The dean's primary duty and significant role really lie in coordinating and allocating various resources.

As a top-tier public hospital, Liu Shangming must secure substantial resources from the department so that the hospital can rapidly develop.

"Dean Liu, will this nanotherapy truly be effective?"

Director Yuan glanced at the surgery room, then asked Liu Shangming.

"This nanotherapy comes from Professor Li Hongwei's latest research results. And Mitifoxin, which can treat Fusarium infection, was discovered by our hospital's Dr. Zhao through literature. As far as we know, this might be the only viable treatment for Fusarium infections."

Liu Shangming responded cautiously.

After all, Director Yuan is responsible for hospital affairs in the department, so in front of him, Liu Shangming would not make absolute statements.

People may wonder why a hospital dean is so cautious in front of a department director?

This is because readers may not know how much a director can accomplish in some key departments.

"At least we have a clue for the treatment, the department just got news that over ten patients infected in H country are not in a good state. Plus, as screening expands, more infected individuals will be discovered. I can't begin to imagine how this situation will evolve."

Director Yuan spoke with some concern. Among leaders, he is known for his pragmatism and minimal polite talk, and this demeanor made him respected by the senior official, propelling his career advancement.

"In such situations, the first step should be to immediately close Jeju Island and conduct the widest range of screenings, which is the standard epidemiological procedure."

Liu Shangming stated.

"Jeju Island holds a considerable stake in H country's tourism industry, and shutting it down immediately would impose unbearable financial loss, differing greatly from our handling methods."

Director Yuan pondered and replied.

"This approach might be counterproductive. The more there is a desire to avoid impacting the local tourism industry, the more devastating it would be if a large-scale outbreak occurs."

Liu Shangming slightly shook his head, indicating that such matters must be handled immediately. Although it requires an initial investment of significant manpower and resources, it is the most economical approach in the long run.

This also comes from invaluable experiences learned domestically after dealing with many issues.

"In H country, the United States controls many things, especially in public health affairs, including drug and public medical equipment procurement, largely monopolized by major U.S. biomedical companies."

Director Yuan's insights clearly exceeded those of Liu Shangming. Dealing with the Fusarium outbreak in Jeju Island is not as straightforward.

H country naturally has complex relationships, not decided by any single department.

Thus, when emergencies occur, the first reaction is often bickering and evasion, with immediate action being rare.

"Dean Liu, I heard that Zhao Heng always follows Director Gao?"

After pausing, Director Yuan inquired.

"Yes, Young Zhao has always been under Director Gao."

Liu Shangming nodded.

"Such outstanding young individuals should be vigorously cultivated. The department has a program for nurturing young scientists, and I believe Zhao Heng can be included."

Director Yuan nodded, seemingly quite appreciative of Zhao Heng.

"That would be excellent."

Given Director Yuan's attention to Gao Jun and Zhao Heng, Liu Shangming wasn't surprised at all. After all, considering the senior official's strict work style, even trying to flatter was impossible.

Inside the operating theatre.

At this point, Gao Jun had prepared the anesthesia.

"Xiao Zhao, anesthesia is ready. You can begin the introduction of the nanomedicine."

Gao Jun said to Zhao Heng.

The introduction of this nanomedicine requires systematic operations and isn't as simple as injecting a vial of medicine.

"Alright, teacher."

Zhao Heng nodded.

"Senior, let's begin."

After a pause, Zhao Heng spoke to Liu Ziang.

This time, Zhao Heng and Liu Ziang were conducting interventional therapy, which involves inserting carbon nanotubes loaded with Mitifoxin through a catheter into the bloodstream, directly reaching the brain lesion. This process entails significant risk.

Due to the presence of the blood-brain barrier, the medication must be administered via this direct interventional approach.

Although this procedure is risky for Zhao Heng and Liu Ziang, together they have a good level of confidence.

Half an hour later, the nanomedicine was successfully introduced into the patient's brain lesion.

Next, it's crucial to observe whether the treatment is effective. If this nanomedicine works, the intense activity of the patient's cerebral cortex will immediately lessen, and this effect should be immediate.

By using carbon nanotubes as drug carriers, this method of medication administration is more direct and effective than any known methods.

At this moment, inside and outside the operating theatre, everyone was focused on the real-time electroencephalogram. With the nanomedicine just introduced into the patient's brain, under the activity of Fusarium, the patient's brainwaves displayed on the screen continued to be quite intense.
