On May 22, Academician Wu Mengchao, the pioneer and main founder of Chinese liver surgery and known as the "father of Chinese liver surgery", died in Shanghai at the age of 99.

On the morning of the 23rd, the reporter saw at the Dongfang Hepatobiliary Hospital where Mr. Wu worked before his death that the memorial ceremony was being held in Building 3.

There is a couplet in the mourning hall that reads: A generation of masters lays down their livers and braves to Rio Tinto's great medical career, and the role model of all the people is to train Tao and Li to cast sincere doctors.

The "sorrowful memory of Academician Wu Mengchao" elegiac couplets have been hung in the mourning hall, and white flowers are neatly arranged in front of the door.

  Wu Mengchao won the National Highest Science and Technology Award in 2005 and is a major advanced model and exemplary medical expert in the country.

He has a famous saying, "A good doctor sees illness in his eyes and people in his heart."

  Citizens who came to mourn said that Mr. Wu not only treated the patients with all his heart, but also put himself in the position to consider all aspects of the patients.
