Chapter 1176: Chapter 1179: There is a unit called “Chen Cang”!

Chen Cang stood to the side, calmly and unhurriedly putting on his gloves.

In his right hand he picked up the needle holder, waiting for the challenge to begin!

At this moment, hundreds on the scene and countless others in front of TVs were all staring at their computer and mobile phone screens, waiting for the challenge to start.

Was Chen Cang nervous?

Of course, he was nervous!

This wasn’t the operating room; there were no nurses to wipe sweat from his brow, no Director Li to scratch an itch, so he was undoubtedly under psychological pressure.

Even though there was no need to worry about patient complications, there were still so many people, so many eyes fixed on him.

To say he wasn’t nervous would be a lie!

The dean’s office at the University Hospital of the Medical University of the Americas was spacious and luxurious, looking more like a business lounge.

But at this time, many people were sitting on the couch, staring at the big screen featuring “The Challenge of the Impossible”!

Dean Wu Maoxuan suddenly became anxious.

“What do you think… can Chen Cang really achieve it?”

He always felt… that Chen Cang had deliberately dug a hole for him to jump into.

But he couldn’t figure out why Chen Cang would dig such a hole!

16 minutes? That pit is just too deep, isn’t it possible?

And what harm does it do to him?

The people around heard Wu Maoxuan’s questions and couldn’t help but laugh: “How could that be possible? 16 minutes… that’s simply impossible, even the nation’s fastest, Academician Xiao Zhehai, was only able to do it in 18 minutes. To cut down the time to under 20 minutes, each minute saved represents a push to the limit.”

“Impossible!” Huai Te, who had been silent beside them, suddenly spoke up, and he was the surgeon who had completed the operation in 23 minutes just a few days ago.

“Because the truth is, the difficulty of performing right here is even more nerve-wracking than the real operating room environment because there are too many external factors, so many pairs of eyes are watching you, and it’s very difficult for you to perform normally!”

“It’s started!”

At this time, in front of the television watching the surgery were many medical personnel — it was their first time seeing a doctor appear on a variety show.

Because all along, images of medical personnel have been polarized: they were either medical experts making public speeches on scientific channels or those harmful individuals on gossip channels that tarnish medical ethics. Occasionally, the more tragic image would be of doctors donning armor to save patients.

It’s rare to see doctors participate in variety shows like this.

As the countdown ended, Chen Cang calmly picked up the scalpel and started his operation.

Everyone had assumed that Chen Cang would be somewhat nervous and would operate a bit quicker!

Because the time needed for suturing is set in stone, to strive for the ultimate speed, all medical personnel were speculating that Chen Cang, to break the record, had to save time on the preliminary trivial matters.

Since it’s a mock surgery and not on a real person, there was no need to pay attention to the details.

To break the record, the only possibility was to skim over the essentials and focus on suturing, ignoring other surgical details.

Because those are the real time-consuming tasks!

However, as everyone watched Chen Cang operate, they found his approach to be meticulous and thorough.

It seemed as if he was dealing with a real patient, performing an actual surgery!

At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but sigh!

Professor Chen still didn’t seem to understand the meaning of today!

Time slipped away by the minute, and soon, the excision of the aortic arch and the commencement of the anastomosis with the artificial blood vessel began.

But by then, six minutes had already passed, and there were still many steps to go!

There wasn’t much time left for suturing.

For Chen Cang to break the record seemed very difficult now!

Meanwhile, Bilt from the Mayo Medical Center and Yao Lekang from the Peking University Affiliated Hospital were both watching the surgical details on the big screen intently.

They couldn’t help but shake their heads!

Dr. Chen handled the details with great care!

Details determine success or failure. Bilt noticed at a glance that Chen Cang’s surgical skill was formidable.

Even if he couldn’t break the 16-minute record, he was more than capable of being at the forefront of the world.

At this very moment, nine minutes of time had passed!

Chen Cang finally began suturing!

At this time, in the office of the University Hospital of the Medical University of the Americas, Huai Te put down his teacup and said:

“Chen Cang is really skilled, he is even better than me when it comes to handling surgical details, this is a formidable doctor!”

The other experts all fell silent; they could naturally see Chen Cang’s level.

Sometimes, when professionals watch their peers, what they look for are not other aspects but the grasp of details.

And right from the start, Chen Cang had already taken the lead over them.

After Huai Te finished speaking, he added, “However, the way he is handling this so meticulously and carefully now, it’s going to be very difficult to complete the surgery within the allotted time!”

“Reducing the time for suturing is tough, the final time might be between 18-20 minutes!”

Wu Maoxuan was taken aback by these words.

Chen Cang is actually this amazing!

The way Chen Cang worked was as if he was crafting a delicate sculpture, highly appealing to watch. This was the first time the audience had a close view of the surgery and its details.

Watching Chen Cang operate, everyone suddenly discovered that surgery can also be quite aesthetically pleasing!

The most crucial of course was that pair of hands!

The large hands that adeptly completed various operations.

Indeed!

Surgery too, could hold beauty just like summer flowers and autumn leaves!

But just as everyone was appreciating it, Chen Cang’s technique suddenly changed.

Once Chen Cang picked up the needle holder to start suturing, his hands became unlike the finely chiseling ones from before.

The moment Chen Cang started anastomosing the blood vessels, everyone was taken aback in shock!

They even began to get excited and agitated.

His hands moved like butterflies fluttering through flowers, agile yet retaining their aesthetic quality!

Yet the rhythm of the suturing was like a sudden gusty downpour!

Chen Cang’s entire suturing process truly stunned everyone present!

Too fast!

So fast that one could only see Chen Cang’s continuous movement of his hands!

The left hand, the right hand in slow motion?

No!

There was only the constant replay of rapid movements!

With every stitch and every suture, it seemed like Chen Cang was playing them to perfection!

Too fast!

Truly, way too fast!

Even many found it difficult to clearly see Chen Cang’s suturing.

It was a bit terrifying…

All the viewers, whether present on scene or in front of a TV, were stunned by the suturing speed of Chen Cang at this moment.

Is this… knitting a sweater?

A woman couldn’t help but swallow her saliva: “This… is even faster than me knitting a sweater!”

Nobody had thought suturing could reach such a speed.

And who could have imagined, the same Chen Cang who was just like the gentle spring rain turned into a raging storm in an instant!

The contrast in style was stark!

A display of brute aesthetic force, to its fullest!

Speed?

What is speed!

At this moment, Chen Cang perfectly defined what speed is!

Do you think 16 minutes is quick enough?

The corners of Chen Cang’s mouth lifted slightly.

You probably don’t understand my speed well enough!

Quick?

My quickness is something you can’t even imagine!

At this moment, no matter who it was!

Everyone was astonished by Chen Cang’s rapid suturing!
