Capítulo 1748: Chapter 1752: The Magnanimous Professor Chen!
For those conspiracy theorists, Chen Cang’s remarks were undoubtedly a blatant provocation!
Even a loud slap in the face!
Hit them so they couldn’t tell north from south, east from west!
Chen Cang’s actions clearly conveyed to them:
“Yes, I’m scheming for x-pri’s promotion, what can you do about it?”
So, Chen Cang’s controversial move had an evident impact.
Almost the moment Chen Cang made these statements,
it quickly attracted various conspiracy theorists.
An executive from the American Johnson & Johnson Group directly made a statement!
“Perhaps, compared to Professor Chen, I should have more say on x-pri technology.”
“Years ago, we invested heavily to acquire Eckes Company and partnered with Mr. Howard to jointly develop the x-pri intervention gun technology! And I, Vent-George, was the chief project leader at that time!”
“Because we too are optimistic about such a future, and we are very dedicated to the prospects of x-pri technology! We’ve been continuously trying and researching.”
“Indeed, it can be said that today’s x-pri intervention gun owes much to the improvements made by our Johnson & Johnson engineers and technical team.”
“Therefore, I understand the x-pri technology more thoroughly.”
“But it’s exactly because of my understanding that I’ve stepped up today to speak, knowing that provoking Professor Chen isn’t exactly the most rational move for me. Professor Chen holds significant stature in the international medical field, but I feel I should speak up because no one is more appropriate to say these words than me!”
“Firstly, the foremost point is the safety of x-pri. The reason we abandoned the x-pri technology is that we sought out many experts and scholars worldwide to try this intervention gun. For this, we invested a lot of effort and funds, hoping to get comprehensive data on the x-pri intervention gun.”
“Unfortunately, the results showed that no doctor could safely and correctly use the x-pri intervention gun on the human body, even after we conducted thousands of animal experiments, we still couldn’t change the course of entering human trials.”
“Therefore, I do not agree with Professor Chen’s approach nor the Chinese Food and Drug Administration’s approval of x-pri clinical trials!”
“Secondly, the second point, which is also very important, is that even if Professor Chen can complete one surgery, even if it’s successful, what we should do is accumulate experience, not use it as a bargaining chip and traffic to attract attention, because through just one surgery, Professor Chen can’t truly understand x-pri technology!”
“Undoubtedly, the data within our Johnson & Johnson on the usage methods and application guidelines of the x-pri intervention gun are the most complete, covering the broadest surgical range, with the highest design skills!”
“Professor Chen’s contact and application of x-pri technology are not even one fifth of ours, and the number of surgeries is not even one percent, so I believe my doubts are justified.”
“So, I think Professor Chen’s actions this time are somewhat too hasty. As a promising doctor, I believe he shouldn’t lose more than he gains—sacrificing professional ethics for wealth and capital.”
Vent-George’s remarks seemed to show respect for Chen Cang, addressing him as Professor Chen with utmost familiarity, yet everywhere were hidden threats!
He repeatedly insisted that Chen Cang should uphold noble medical ethics and not lose sight of the bigger picture for trivial gains.
In reality, it’s classic sycophantic flattery that kinks like a loud abacus calculation.
This was outright flattering, then strictly holding one to industry standards!
It seemed as though failing to meet expectations would let everyone down.
Vent-George’s speech, after being released, instantly drew the attention of countless people.
And those who were already skeptical of Chen Cang, seemed to find their crowd, stepping out one after another.
They demanded Chen Cang adhere to the noble Nightingale spirit and Bai Qiuen’s qualities, claiming Chen Cang violated the so-called Hippocratic oath, and was unfit to be a qualified doctor.
People are like this; the games they enjoy are just like this.
They always love putting someone on a pedestal, elevating them high.
Then they paint them with a layer of gold dust that doesn’t belong to this world.
Then, the most joyful part begins.
Splashing paint and pushing that person down from the divine pedestal, hurling them into the abyss.
Thus satisfying a kind of “perverse” psychology in them.
Chen Cang was in such a scenario.
His rise was welcomed with mixed emotions, or rather, it was because of his rise that those once high and mighty “gods” ceased to shine.
Yet when Chen Cang became exceptional, people moved to knock him down again.
Such incidents appear entertaining?
In a flash, the news about Chen Cang conducting clinical trials rapidly spread!
In less than an hour, it garnered millions of shares.
It even elevated to a human rights issue.
Chen Cang wasn’t naive.
Seeing how fast the news of his x-pri clinical trials spread, he actually felt quite pleased internally.
He had initially worried about the limited impact of the x-pri intervention gun.
Unexpectedly, there were people promoting it for him!
However, being insulted was still quite unpleasant.
Chen Cang wanted to retort.
But…
He didn’t have a particularly good script; he couldn’t put together elegant retorts.
He understood why Johnson & Johnson’s executive Vent-George did this.
It was nothing more than an issue of conflicting interests.
Secondly, a matter of sentiment.
Just like when you had once kept a mistress, only to find one day that some big shot suddenly posted on social media how great and beautiful this mistress was, and that they were set to get married!
Then, you’d definitely post to show your concern and blessings, perhaps slipping in a comment: “She’s not that skilled; I don’t think your choice is wise.”
Of course, Chen Cang clearly remembered the international medical device conference held in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
Johnson & Johnson had once introduced a new cardiac arrest surgical instrument.
Now, with the advent of his x-pri technology, it was undoubtedly a blow to Johnson & Johnson!
If Chen Cang’s x-pri technology truly matured, it would be a distressing scenario akin to them stepping in something foul!
Will they allow such an occurrence?
Certainly not!
Chen Cang was indeed far more magnanimous than them!
He merely picked up the phone and dialed his contact at the Oxford Laboratory in the UK.
