The success of the surgery scoring system is all thanks to your brilliant leadership, to Dr. Xu and Dr. Cui working overtime and putting in all that effort, and it couldn't have happened without everyone's cooperation and support. I won't say anything else—thank you for cultivating me, I really mean it, thank you so much."
