Rebirth 1958: My Home is in Nanluoguxiang

The first snow of winter had just fallen, and the second snow followed. The northern land was completely frozen, and the vast rural areas entered the winter season.

Time flies. After enduring the winter with howling north winds, we usher in the spring with lush grass and singing birds.

On April 1960, 8, the weather was cloudy and turned to light rain.

There was a drizzle outside the window. The conference room of the affiliated hospital was now full of people. Everyone was staring at Chang Zhengyang in the front seat, and they were writing down Chang Zhengyang's words with pens in their hands, for fear of missing a word.

"According to the re-examination results of our team, the patient Zhou Dazhuang is recovering well and can already do some physical work. Now I declare that the first autologous heart transplant surgery in my country, and also the first heart transplant surgery in the world, has been a complete success!"

clap clap...

Warm applause filled the conference room, followed by cheers outside the corridor.

Within a few minutes, the whole hospital was in an uproar, with cheers ringing out everywhere.

The so-called autologous heart transplant surgery is to use the patient's stem cells to cultivate a heart, and then transplant it back into the patient's body. Since this is an organ grown from the patient's own stem cells, the patient will not have any rejection reaction after the operation.

When Chang Zhengyang announced that the autologous heart transplant operation was a complete success, he was surrounded by the hospital leaders. Those old comrades, whose average age was over 50, hugged Chang Zhengyang and patted his back like young people.

"Really? You're all so snotty and crying, and you don't even know how to be ashamed!"

Chang Zhengyang finally squeezed out of the crowd and found a place outside the hospital to smoke.

At some point, the dark clouds in the sky had dissipated and the sun was shining on the earth.

Thinking back on the hardships of the past six months, Chang Zhengyang sighed.

Clinical medicine, especially surgery, is indeed very difficult to learn. Even with Chang Zhengyang's learning ability, it took him almost a year of studying day and night to become a qualified and even excellent surgeon.

Surgeon is a typical profession that combines scientific research and practice. You really have to learn throughout your life!

"It's time for me to graduate from clinical medicine. I have to stay dormant for the next few years."

Chang Zhengyang put out the cigarette butt, turned around and walked back to the hospital.

"The world's first heart transplant operation was a complete success in China!"

A few days later, the front-page news in major Chinese newspapers were all about the successful completion of the world's first heart transplant operation.

This time, at Chang Zhengyang's firm request, his name was only mentioned briefly in the report, and the focus of the report was mainly on the significance of the operation and the prospects for the future.

After this report was published in overseas newspapers, it immediately caused a sensation around the world.

Doubt, can't believe...

Does a backward country like China have the medical conditions to carry out organ transplant operations?

Moreover, it is the most difficult organ transplant, the heart transplant!

In fact, the world's first organ transplant surgery was a kidney transplant performed successfully by American doctors in 1954.

Why choose kidney?

Because the kidney is not the most important organ for the human body. Even if a person has one kidney removed, he can still survive.

Therefore, American doctors set the kidney as their first target in their quest for organ transplantation.

However, the organ transplant surgery at that time had great defects, and the patient's rejection reaction after the operation was too severe, so he was actually just struggling to survive.

Heart transplantation in China is not only an order of magnitude more difficult than kidney transplantation, but also solves the rejection problem, making it a nearly perfect solution.

In order to solve the surgical difficulties of heart transplantation, Chang Zhengyang also developed related drugs, surgical instruments, and even an extracorporeal circulation machine!

As soon as the report was published, it immediately caused a strong response in the medical community at home and abroad, including abroad, where many medical experts applied to visit and study at the affiliated hospital of Yenching Medical College.

It took only one year for Hua Xia to implement the theory of directed stem cell reproduction since it proposed it.

This caused great stimulation to foreign countries, especially Western countries. They began to ridicule in newspapers, saying that the Chinese were a nation that loved to lie.

It was not until two months later, after the medical experts who came to China conducted rigorous research on the surgical videos and case reports and witnessed with their own eyes Chang Zhengyang leading his surgical team to complete three heart transplants, that they reluctantly admitted that Chinese medicine had indeed made considerable progress.

Then this time it is the West's turn to be embarrassed. China has made such a major medical breakthrough. Should the award be given to the Chinese?

The conclusion is: Chinese people do not belong to the free world and are not eligible for the award.

Unless the Chinese doctor named Chang Zhengyang comes to his senses and embraces the free world!

When Chang Zhengyang learned about such reports, he could only say one thing: He is worthy of being a double-standard dog in the free world. Such shameless operation and such a thick skin are hard to accept!

The world is full of troubles, but it is already June when flowers are in full bloom. Chang Zhengyang and other graduates of the clinical department attended the graduation ceremony together.

It’s his last graduation and he can’t take photos alone again. It would be too lonely. Otherwise, when his descendants look through his photos in the future, they will suspect that his graduation certificate is fake.

After this graduation, Chang Zhengyang finally bid farewell to his student status. From the perspective of his life journey, he has officially entered society from now on.

After receiving his diploma, according to the instructions of his superiors, Chang Zhengyang was promoted to associate professor, receiving a level 12 salary, plus subsidies, totaling 191 yuan per month.

Everyone knows that Chang Zhengyang could have been promoted directly to the title of professor because he was too young, but when he turns 25, he will have to remove the title of associate professor.

"Excuse me, are you Professor Chang?"

"I'm Chang Zhengyang, who are you?"

Chang Zhengyang raised his head and looked at the person at the door, and found that Secretary Xu from the hospital office was also there, so he turned his gaze to him. The other party nodded slightly, his eyes full of envy.

What does Secretary Xu mean?

Chang Zhengyang came over with some confusion, and the person who asked the question said softly: "Professor Chang, the old man wants to see you."

What, the old man wants to see me?

Chang Zhengyang thought that he could remain calm even when faced with a huge collapse, but he unexpectedly failed.

"The old man wants to see me?"

"Yes, the car is waiting outside, let's go!"

Chang Zhengyang got into the car in a daze, not knowing how he got to the red wall. When he came to his senses, he saw that extremely familiar face. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say.

At this moment, there was only one thing in his mind: the Chang family’s ancestral tomb is on fire!
