560: Chapter 560 The Contest Between Teams 560: Chapter 560 The Contest Between Teams Perhaps no one expected that this Traditional Chinese dicine and Western dicine exchange conference would cause such a sensational response, even leading to a trend that venerates Traditional Chinese dicine.
Traditional Chinese dicine was revered to new heights in just a single day.
This was sothing not even Chairman Bi had anticipated, and Tangyu even less so.
If Tangyu had foreseen such a scene, he might have seriously considered whether or not to attend the exchange conference.
Of course, had Tangyu not participated, the impact might not have been as significant.
What Tangyu didn’t know was how many people, influenced by the exchange conference, would go on to study Traditional Chinese dicine, laying a trendous foundation for its future developnt.
But of course, that’s a story for another ti.
The exchange conference quickly beca the hottest topic in Huaxia Country, which delighted the leaders.
Initially, the matter was simply handed over to the Traditional Chinese dicine Association to handle.
However, due to its trendous impact, even leaders from Capital City showed their concern, with Capital City’s television channel reporting continuously on the exchange conference.
Suddenly, it was as sensational as could be, stirring up the entertainnt industry and becoming a talking point within the Traditional Chinese dicine community.
In the midst of this fervor, the second day of the exchange officially began.
The conference continued in the hotel’s large conference room, but the number of dia present had surged from over a hundred yesterday to over three hundred today.
This wasn’t because smaller dia were allowed in; rather, it was due to reporters from major dia in other provinces and even Capital City joining in.
The number of dia that were turned away was counted in the thousands.
The vast Shangri-La Hotel outside was besieged to the point of overflowing.
It took hundreds of traffic police to direct traffic and just manage to avoid a complete gridlock.
Chairman Bi announced the projects for the morning exchange, then had everyone take turns to draw a number.
Each number corresponded to a patient, and whichever number was drawn dictated which patient had to be treated.
All dia journalists present were supervisors, and after the exchange conference ended, the detailed information of all patients would be made public, subject to dia investigation and scrutiny by the entire nation.
Of course, the chance of fraud was non-existent.
Tangyu drew numbers twenty and twenty-six.
“Now that everyone has drawn their numbers, please show your numbers in front of the cara to prove they are all different.
Now, let’s have the staff bring in the patients,” Chairman Bi said.
With the staff’s bustling efforts, forty-eight patients were brought in.
So arrived in wheelchairs, so were supported as they walked, and others were even brought in on hospital beds.
Only a few walked in on their own.
All the patients took their places on the floor, and personnel from both Traditional Chinese dicine and Western dicine sides entered, found their patients, and began treatnt.
This exchange project was a real test of team strength, with everyone required to perform without assisting each other.
Any assistance would be considered a foul and would result in a severe point deduction.
If one side committed a foul, they were essentially dood to lose.
The scoring standards also had several detailed rules, with three judges appointed by each side, adhering to principles of fairness and impartiality.
The three main criteria for scoring were: the ti taken to cure the patient, the degree to which the patient was cured, and the required dical materials and equipnt.
These criteria were comprehensively considered and were the result of discussions between both Traditional Chinese dicine and Western dicine representatives.
Both of Tangyu’s patients were relatively manageable: one suffered from long-term tuberculosis, which was very troubleso to treat.
However, naturally, this was no obstacle for Tangyu.
The other had acute appendicitis, a straightforward condition for Western dicine that could be resolved with surgery to remove the appendix, but for Traditional Chinese dicine, it wasn’t as simple.
Although Traditional Chinese dicine had surgical thods, finding practitioners today was nearly impossible.
If it were up to soone else, it would indeed be a significant challenge, but naturally, this wasn’t difficult for Tangyu either.
He cured both patients in no ti, taking nearly half an hour.
Of course, Tangyu wasn’t the quickest to finish; that title went to Doctor Xiao.
She was from the Gu dical Sect, and her thods were very special, allowing her to cure diseases very quickly due to her reliance on Gu insects.
Both Rao Yuanzhi and Xiao Yudie finished quickly, and the Western dicine delegation was not to be outdone, with nearly half their representatives already done.
Tangyu looked towards Nathan, who also glanced back at him.
The two nodded to each other like friends who recognized each other’s talent before turning away.
Tangyu then looked at Liu Shiyi, whose two patients weren’t particularly challenging.
At that mont, Shiyi was serious-faced; she hadn’t cured even one patient yet, which made Tangyu slightly worried—not about being dragged down to a loss by Shiyi, but rather that if she didn’t cure any patients by the end of the competition, it would negatively affect her, and she would undoubtedly be devastated.
This was sothing only she could overco, as no one else could help her.
“Shiyi, you can do it; we all believe in you,” Tangyu said.
Liu Shiyi looked up at Tangyu, then nodded heavily with a smile.
Tangyu’s words had clearly encouraged her greatly.
Many tis, people’s potential is forced out of them, and the question is whether it can be pushed out or not.
As ti ticked by, the three-hour competition limit drew nearer.
On the Traditional Chinese dicine team’s side, aside from Shiyi, everyone else had finished.
Even Shiyi was doing relatively well, having already cured one person, and she was diligently treating the other, clearly facing so difficulties.
Everyone was cheering for Shiyi; no one looked down on her.
This encouragent helped Shiyi not to be discouraged.
On the Western dicine team’s side, soone was facing difficulties too, with one patient yet to be cured.
“Alright, ti’s up; everyone can stop now,” Chairman Bi’s resonant voice suddenly called out.
Liu Shiyi stopped, looking up at everyone with a dismayed face: “I’m sorry, I’ve let everyone down.
It’s all my fault.”
Tangyu approached her and said, “It’s not your fault; you’ve done your best, and we’ve all seen your effort.
You’ve done a great job.”
“Yes, Shiyi, you’ve done an amazing job.
Don’t bla yourself; you put in the greatest effort,” Rao Yuanzhen added.
Everyone also began to offer words of comfort.
Without Tangyu’s words yesterday, perhaps everyone would still be a little resentful towards Liu Shiyi, fearing that the Traditional Chinese dicine team might be defeated because of her.
But now, losing a match no longer concerned anyone.
Traditional Chinese dicine had already established itself as unbeatable, and a loss was sothing they were willing to accept.
Liu Shiyi, with a moved expression, looked at everyone, her eyes brimming with tears of excitent.
The judges were also actively conducting thorough examinations of each patient and then making the most precise and fair assessnts before both teams took their seats again.
After a full half-hour, the six judges finally entered.
One of them handed the results to Pia and the chairman, and the chairman’s eyebrows lifted upon seeing the results.
He glanced at Liu Shiyi but quickly looked away.
Pia’s face, on the other hand, showed a long-absent smile.
From the reactions on both their faces, the results of the conference could be deduced; the Western dicine team must have won.
Liu Shiyi imdiately covered her face, “It’s over, I knew I’d let everyone down.
We lost this match because of alone, and I don’t know how to face Chairman and the others.” This setback was indeed a significant blow to Liu Shiyi.
The heavier the burden on her shoulders, the greater the responsibility.
With loss ca much to shoulder.
“Shiyi, we’ve said it’s not your fault, it has nothing to do with you.
You’ve done your best, and we all know you tried your hardest.
This ti, it was Western dicine’s strong suit.
Losing is not sothing to be ashad of; it’s not disreputable to lose.” Tangyu said.
“But after all, it’s my fault that we lost, how can this not be my fault?” Liu Shiyi said.
“It’s not necessarily because you didn’t cure that patient.
This competition was about the overall performance, not individual.
I’ve been watching the Western dicine team—they have advanced equipnt and biodical redies.
In fact, if they wanted to win, it would be quite easy.
After all, I couldn’t help you this ti.
Their overall strength might not be stronger than ours, but they do possess certain abilities that indeed surpass ours overall.
This loss, I had anticipated it; it was all within my expectations.
Rember what I said yesterday, losing a match can actually be more aningful for us.” Tangyu said.
Liu Shiyi wanted to say more but didn’t know how to express herself.
Chairman stood up and cleared his throat, “For this exchange, a perfect score is one hundred points.
The Western dicine team’s final score is 92.6 points, and the Traditional Chinese dicine team’s final score is 90.1 points.
The final result is a slight edge to our Western dicine team.
Indeed, they used their most advanced equipnt, the most innovative biodical redies, and top-tier experts to deliver an outstanding performance.
Congratulations to them for bringing us such splendid diagnostics.”
As Chairman finished speaking, a thunderous applause arose.
Having been suppressed all of yesterday, today the Western dicine team could finally breathe easy, having won back a match.
The expressions on the Western dicine team mbers’ faces were no longer sullen like yesterday’s, but joyful instead.
Tangyu was also applauding and gave Nathan a congratulatory look.
“The final showdown is this afternoon; we must give it our all.” Nathan said.
Tangyu curled his lips into a smile, “We will also give it our all, waiting for the challenge.”
Having lost the battle in the morning, Tangyu was determined to win the afternoon match.
Traditional Chinese dicine must not beco empty words; if they couldn’t win the East-West dicine exchange—even achieving a tie would render that statent aningless.
Chairman’s gaze also turned this way, his eyes clearly deep.
The sudden loss was indeed hard for him to accept.
After all, Tangyu’s performance yesterday was like a Heavenly God descending to earth, creating miracles one after another, triggering a global tsunami, and causing worldwide amazent.
It was as if an unbeatable War God had appeared, and people had high expectations for Tangyu, so the disappointnt of this defeat was naturally hard to accept.
After a while, Chairman finally withdrew his gaze, “Perhaps I’ve indeed set my expectations too high for them.
The defeat is fair and square, and not by much.
It’s enough to prove their strength.”
