The First Night
That night.
The three of them finished cleaning up and gathered on the sofa to watch the video.
Certainly not a soap opera.
It's not a horror movie either.
It's not an action romance movie.
"Where did you get it?"
Juno looked at the operation process in the video and asked in surprise.
"Remember my New York friends, right?"
Adam looked at the video tape and explained with a smile, "The new one, the Rachel you haven't seen before, her father is actually Attending Physician from New York University Medical Center Cardiothoracic Surgery..."
"Have you established a good relationship with him?"
Juno didn't wait for Adam to finish speaking. He had already guessed what Adam had done before, but he was still a little surprised. "So fast?"
Friends are friends, and family is family.
It's okay to meet family members through friends, but it's not easy to connect and build a good relationship.
First of all the age difference is there.
Secondly, the life circle is different.
Friends and their parents generally rarely see each other, let alone you who want to develop relationships through friends!
Even if you fall in love with a friend, it won't happen so quickly.
Because it's the same everywhere, a father regards his daughter as his lover and little cotton-padded jacket in his previous life, and any man who falls in love with his daughter is hateful. It's already very generous not to show off, but he still wants to be a good friend with him?
I want to eat shit!
When Ross and Rachel were dating and needed to meet their parents, Rachel told her a lot that she could say anything, but she couldn't say that he was 'doing' her.
"Yeah."
Adam also expressed some emotion. "I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Maybe I'm just more popular."
Juno glanced at the shameless Adam and said to the point, "Maybe he also intended to make it happen, otherwise it wouldn't have happened so quickly."
Adam was startled, and then nodded suddenly. "Leonard did appreciate me from the beginning."
"This relationship must be maintained well."
Juno reminded, "Attending Physician from a large department in a big hospital will be very helpful to you in the future."
"Yeah."
Adam smiled and said, "Otherwise, how could we see these videos now?"
These videotapes are all surgical videos accumulated by Leonard over the years as a doctor. They are very precious and rare, and it is difficult to buy them even if you have money.
More importantly, because Leonard is Cardiothoracic Surgeon, these videos are almost like a microcosm of the era when Leonard grew up.
It is very helpful to Adam who want to grow into Cardiothoracic Surgeon.
"It's a pity that what I plan to learn is Neurosurgery."
Juno looked at the video and shook his head.
She is very interested in human psychology. Even if she plans to be a doctor in the future, she is so steady that she checked the relevant information early and selected Neurosurgery, which has the closest relationship with human psychology.
Adam was also reminded by her, so she chose Cardiothoracic Surgery early.
The road Juno chose was much more difficult than that of Adam.
It was the year 2020 in the previous life. Neurosurgery involving the brain was all determined by hard work, not to mention that it is only 1993 now.
Most of the videos given by Leonard are from Cardiothoracic Surgery. For Juno who chose Neurosurgery, the effect is a little worse.
"I'll help you get some Neurosurgery video tapes then."
Adam slapped his forehead and secretly cursed himself for forgetting this.
"Okay."
Juno smiled and said, "But don't worry, you can just read these first."
Neurosurgery and Cardiothoracic Surgery are not completely isolated either.
When doctors are studying in rotation, they are involved in all specialties, but later they will choose one subject to concentrate on until they become a top doctor in the specialty.
And one thing knows everything.
Doctor Neurosurgery can also perform surgery on Cardiothoracic Surgery. Doctor Cardiothoracic Surgery can sometimes also perform surgery on Neurosurgery. It all depends on the individual's skill level.
Seeing that Adam wanted to pat his chest to confirm, Juno reminded, "This Dr. Green is willing to lend you these precious video tapes. He obviously values you, but it is best to pay attention and wait a little longer to make the relationship better. After all, he has to ask someone for help to get those video tapes, which is not the same thing."
"That's right."
Adam nodded.
It's the same everywhere, favors are always used one point at a time and one point at a time.
It is foolish to ask for too much without knowing the moderation and management feedback!
"Tell me this."
Adam said casually, "I'm not going to take the Harvard Medical School exam. Leonard graduated from Columbia University Medical School and is also New York University Medical Center's doctor. All my connections are with New York. I'm going to take the Columbia University Medical School exam."
Later, Leonard told Juno about the huge pitfalls in the internship promotion.
"You have the right idea."
Juno confirmed Adam's idea. "I have also vaguely heard that there is no such thing as waiting for intern doctors. Even medical students have this kind of thing. Many students particularly 'worship' technical authority. Many medical school professors got married because of this."
"Fuck!"
Adam The corners of his mouth twitched.
He was still too naive and underestimated the competitiveness of medical students.
"Then do you want to pass the exam when the time comes?"
Adam asked subconsciously.
"No need."
Juno smiled, "This Dr. Green is just Attending Physician. It doesn't matter if he takes care of you alone, but it will be a bit difficult for him to take care of two of you.
I don't care too much about rapid promotion. Although Columbia University Medical School is also a top medical school, it is not as good as Harvard Medical School, which is always ranked first. If I go to Harvard Medical School, I can exchange some different technical experiences with you. "
Whether it is Harvard Medical School or Columbia University Medical School, they are both private colleges and the teaching materials are self-edited. Even though the processes are the same, there are still many differences in the technical details.
These differences are sometimes a reflection of superior strength.
Of course, this is not enough to offset the huge impact that personal connections can bring.
However, with Juno, Adam, who has chosen personal connections, can learn more about the technical details of the holy land of medicine without any delay.
In response, Adam could only admire. "You are right."
The two communicated for a while.
Later, Adam simply turned sideways to talk to Juno. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a shadow covering the sky somewhere. His eyes were dizzy, and when he looked closely, he remembered that Karen had always been there.
But because Jingjing was silent and snuggled next to Juno, Adam almost forgot that she was there.
"Ahem."
Adam's throat was a little dry. He coughed a few times and said with a smile, "Karen, how are you doing lately?"
"Very good."
Karen glanced at Adam, seeming to wonder why he was talking to her, but he still replied, his attitude was quite friendly, and he must have been influenced by Juno.
"That's fine."
Adam was a little embarrassed, especially when he saw Juno's half-smiling gaze, he laughed dryly.
"Karen is particularly talented in cooking."
Juno smiled and said, "Let her show off her skills tomorrow and I'll give you a big treat."
"I believe it."
Adam nodded repeatedly.
Next, the three of them remained silent and stared at the slightly bloody operation on the videotape.
If someone broke in at this time and saw this scene, they would probably be scared to death.
