After a few of them passed it around, Chi Jianjun said, "What's this all about？"
Chi Jianguo smiled and said, "I was pretty shocked when I saw this newspaper too. I called that classmate up right away and asked him to look into it. He only called me back a few days ago and told me what happened."
"What happened？" several of them asked in unison.
"Xiao Luo finished his PhD in economics at Harvard in just half a year, but before he could even receive his doctoral degree, he transferred to the medical school. Within eight months at medical school, he became a student of Dr. Watt, the world's most famous cardiac surgeon. You might not have heard of Dr. Watt, but as a doctor, let me tell you—he is the director of the National Heart Research Institute in the U.S. This kid followed Dr. Watt and participated in many major surgeries. Then about a year and a half ago, he performed a heart transplant surgery as the lead surgeon that shocked the entire world."
Chi Jianguo's words terrified everyone present. "He performed heart transplant surgery? And it shocked the whole world? You sure it wasn't because the patient died from his malpractice that it made world news?" Yang Yaxin asked.
Chi Jianguo shook his head with a smile： "This surgery set a world record. The entire operation took less than 120 minutes—just two hours. And the part where the major blood vessels of the transplanted heart were connected and the heart was revived and started beating took less than forty minutes." At this, Chi Jianguo asked： "Do you know what the previous world record for heart transplant surgery was？"
Everyone shook their heads in unison. Chi Jianguo said： "It was held by his mentor, Dr. Watt—three hours and forty-five minutes."
"Hiss！" The sound of sharp intakes of breath was clearly audible.
