Surgery Godfather-Chapter 1942 - 1331: Do You Think There’s Such a Thing as Too Much Money? (3)
The applause thundered. Huang Jiacai recalled the words Yang Ping often said: "Jiacai, remember, as the company grows larger and stronger, never forget the original intention. The medical industry is a matter of life and death, every decision must be made with caution."
He had never forgotten.
After the press conference ended, Huang Jiacai immediately contacted the Sanbo Research Institute: "Please inform Professor Yang that Ruixing Medical will always be your most steadfast supporter. If there’s anything you need, feel free to ask."

New York, USA, in the office of the Director of Sports Medicine at the Special Surgery Hospital.
Professor Robert had just finished a morning meeting when he received a congratulatory email from a colleague: "Congratulations, your Chinese mentor has won the Nobel Prize again!" He paused for a moment and then opened the news website.
Seeing Yang Ping’s name, Robert burst into laughter.
Robert felt genuinely proud. He immediately wrote an email to Yang Ping: "Dear Professor Yang: Learning that you have won the Nobel Prize again, I am extremely excited and unsurprised. Your theory is transforming world medical practice. I raise my glass in New York to celebrate you! I look forward to continuing to learn from you soon."
After sending the email, Robert said to his assistant, "Adjust my schedule for next month, I need to visit China. Besides, arrange a special lecture, I want to introduce Professor Yang Ping’s systemic regulation theory to the whole institution."

Germany.
Professor August was preparing for a complex spinal deformity correction surgery in the operating room.
The surgery was still in preparation, and he stood by the film light screen studying the patient’s image.
The patrolling nurse hurriedly walked over and said, "Professor, there’s important news."
"This is the operating room, please maintain seriousness! Do not discuss topics unrelated to surgery." August turned and reprimanded.
"Professor Yang Ping has won the Nobel Prize again!" The patrolling nurse persisted despite the reprimand and spoke out the major news.
August was incredulous: "What did you say, repeat that?"
"Professor Yang Ping has won the Nobel Prize again!" The patrolling nurse repeated.
August flexed his neck, hesitated for a few seconds, then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He immediately announced to the team members: "Everyone, my Chinese mentor Professor Yang Ping has just won the Nobel Prize for the second time."
The German doctors congratulated him one after another, but someone curiously asked: "Professor August, did you really study in China?"
"Yes, I stayed at Sanbo Hospital for three months," August recalled, "That was the most important learning experience of my career. Professor Yang taught me not only the skills but also how to think about medical problems."
After the surgery ended, August returned to his office and retrieved the album from his time in China. In the photos, he and Yang Ping stood together at the operating table, with Yang Ping explaining a certain operation point.
Yang Ping was already a renowned expert at that time, but he was completely open and shared everything with this foreign trainee doctor. August deeply appreciated this selflessness.
He opened his computer and began drafting a review article: "The Application of Systemic Regulation Theory in Orthopedic Diseases: Insights from China." He intended to use his own way to promote Yang Ping’s medical concepts in Europe. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
Meanwhile, he communicated with the German Medical Academy: "I propose conferring the title of Honorary Academician to Professor Yang Ping. His work deserves the highest recognition."

Nature, Science, Cell, New England Journal of Medicine, The Lancet... Editors-in-chief of the world’s top academic journals received express delivery almost simultaneously, containing the latest paper on systemic regulation theory from Yang Ping’s team, along with complete experimental data.
The editor-in-chief of Nature, Jeff, read the paper carefully in his London office. As an experienced editor who has witnessed countless major breakthroughs, he was still stunned by the depth and breadth of this paper. It’s not a simple technical improvement but a fundamental transformation of the medical model.
He immediately convened the editorial team: "This paper must be published as quickly as possible. Professor Yang Ping has just won the Nobel Prize for the second time; this paper may be a significant extension of his award-winning work. We need to let the world see it promptly."
The editor-in-chief of Science, Lewis, made a similar decision in Washington. Richard Horton, the editor-in-chief of The Lancet, personally wrote an editorial: "Professor Yang Ping’s systemic regulation theory might represent the third revolution in medicine. The first was the establishment of the germ theory, the second was the rise of molecular biology, and the third might be the advent of systemic medicine. We are witnessing history."
On the official websites of major journals, Yang Ping’s paper was placed in the most prominent position. On academic social networks, related discussions quickly heated up. Global medical researchers were studying these papers, trying to understand the core ideas of systemic regulation theory and thinking about how to apply it to their own research fields.
A new era of medicine is quietly beginning in these readings and reflections.

Tang Shun was swamped these days because the people from the foundation frequently sent messages, reporting one large donation after another arriving in the account.
"Professor, are these people a bit too crazy, congratulating you on your award in this manner?"
Yang Ping saw the financial report handed over by Tang Shun.
"Do you mind having too much money?"
Tang Shun quickly shook his head: "No no no, Professor, who would mind having too much money!"
