System Came When the Doctor was Thirty

If you can learn one or two types of surgery, that’s the limit. If you can even manage to attach your name to a paper, that’s beyond expectations.

It’s not that Professor Chen Song lacks this kind of clear self-awareness, but he feels that by joining the research team, he can make a bigger contribution and therefore reap more rewards.

Medicine is a field that requires personal ability; without enough accumulated capability, even if someone tries to lift you, they won’t succeed.

No one dares to recklessly compare it to many other industries that might back you up.

In the financial industry, one can just blend in if they have money.

At this moment, Mu Nanshu is applying a face mask with Yan Sangyue and says, ”Today, Dai Linfang had a chat with me.”

”What did he say?” Lu Cheng asked.

”He said that my previous thoughts and choices were relatively right, but there’s one problem: I’m too mediocre, so I don’t have any unique skills right now.”

”The current research team is still relatively small, so if I blend in, others might not have a big opinion. But once the team grows, someone will surely think my presence is unnecessary.”

”Unnecessary tensions and misunderstandings might arise, so I need to have my own specialty.” Mu Nanshu said.

”I think what he said makes sense.”

”Dai Linfang has truly been involved in major projects and has joined bigger research teams before.”

Lu Cheng tapped the table with his fingers and joked, ”But he probably doesn’t know what my wife’s best at, right?”

Mu Nanshu has a strong fighting capability.

”No, Dai Linfang knows. He also talked to me about this issue!”

”I just happened to find a loophole; this doesn’t make me irreplaceable.”

”What if others’ contributions have no loopholes?”

”Also, the continuity of a research team can’t rely on taking chances. Taking chances is a thankless direction.”

”I feel he’s making sense, but I also don’t know what I could be good at. What should I do?” Mu Nanshu was a bit distressed.

Before Dai Linfang joined the team, Mu Nanshu thought her comprehensive ability was quite strong. But seemingly, once Dai Linfang joined, Mu Nanshu suddenly felt she had no advantage, becoming purely a bystander.

In terms of role play, even as a manager or leader, Mu Nanshu felt she was not even half as capable as Dai Linfang, perhaps even only a quarter as capable.

”Didn’t you always say you’re just an ordinary girl?” Lu Cheng teased, his mind pondering.

”I...” Mu Nanshu sat up from lying down, her voice stifled.

”You’ve said it.” Lu Cheng emphasized.

Mu Nanshu said, ”But I can’t just muddle through, right?”

”Brother Zhang Xibei feels he’s just blending in, and he’s started working overtime these days.”

”Ni Xixin also thinks he’s half a bystander, and he’s been seeking various materials these days, hoping to show his value to the research team.”

”Not everyone is like Xie Yuan’an.”

In the research team, apart from Xie Yuan’an comfortably lying down, not using his brain at all, and only wanting to contribute physically, no one purely intends to coast by.

Lu Cheng is the brains, the pioneer, the technique development driver; no one thinks Lu Cheng is a bystander.

As Dai Linfang stated, advancing a project relies on comprehensive information integration ability, not just study skills.

Studying is effective repetition; advancement is a breakthrough, and the difficulties are on a different level.

It’s only because Dai Linfang chatted with Mu Nanshu for a while that she realized her awkward position.

The current setup of the research team is entirely different from when it was just her and Lu Cheng, so Mu Nanshu must straighten out her position.

”Alright, don’t get upset.”

”I’ve long thought about what you could do.” Lu Cheng said.

”You’ve thought about it?” Mu Nanshu straightened her posture, looking obedient.

”If I were to be a bit cheesy, a bit improper, I think accompanying me is quite enough. That’s my relatively selfish thought.”

”More broadly, you can be the one who finds ideas.”

Lu Cheng quickly reached out to interrupt Mu Nanshu’s motion to speak: ”Listen to me first.”

”I’m not sure if my understanding is correct; after spending so much time with the project, I think the projects within a research team are roughly divided into these categories.”

”First, choosing the direction, the big direction.”

”Second, charging ahead, needing a sharp tool that can reach the city gates, maybe even break through the city.”

”Third, the detailed executor, needed to manage the city once it’s breached.”

”At most, I’m the second type. My current research foundation is too weak.”

”But I think that within our research team, you’re the most suitable for making big direction choices. Because your understanding is more extensive.”

”When you’re planning something devious, you’ve surely done a lot of preparation, read many articles, and have a more profound understanding of the bigger picture.”

”So, wherever you point, we’ll attack there. Whether we can breakthrough is another matter, but letting you guide the direction is definitely right.”

Mu Nanshu suddenly became nervous: ”Lu Cheng, don’t joke with me.”

”Dai Linfang is more suitable than I am.”

Lu Cheng said: ”Why is Dai Linfang more suitable? Before bearing the cost of trial and error, his research team is certainly more luxurious than ours. What he says, what Professor Xie says, the big direction is of course the best.”

”But what about the outcome?”

”We must think for ourselves and not just dive in because what they say sounds high and mighty.”

”Why? Xiao Shu, do you think we have the capability to directly venture into functional reconstruction surgery? What kind of joke is that?”
