Chapter 648 Traditional Chinese Medicine

Wang Chengzhi and Zhao Yumin went to help Derek who was sitting in the chair, as if they wanted to pull him up. Peter started to take out his phone and prepared to make an appointment with the doctor. Just as everyone relaxed, Derek closed his eyes and endured the huge pain on his right shoulder. When it hurts.

Click!

"Oh, Shet, what do you want to do, murder?" Derek, who was being helped out to seek medical treatment, roared and waved his hand, almost throwing Wang Chengzhi and Zhao Yumin away.

Others were there too, because they could hear the crisp crackling sound of bones clearly.

boom!

After the angry Derek threw away the two people, he subconsciously stretched out his big palm and slapped them directly. As a big center who needs to grab rebounds and tear down the enemy's defense, he obviously doesn't have a good temper.

But as soon as he took his hand out, he found that his wrist was grabbed. He subconsciously tried hard to shake it off, but as a result, his wrist seemed to be clamped by pliers, unable to move and separate, and the severe pain from his shoulder made his face twitch in an instant.

"Show him again." Seeing Derek's painful expression, Yang Dongxu released his grip on Derek's wrist and said to Wang Chengzhi and Zhao Yumin who were standing aside.

"Go away, do you believe I'm calling the police?" Derek roared subconsciously when he saw the two Chinese men he had shaken away approaching him again.

"Derek, your arm." At this time, someone reacted and screamed. The hand that Derek just shook off the two people and continued to attack was his dislocated right arm.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet. Everyone who had heard the crisp sound of bones changed their expressions. At this time, everyone looked at Derek's arms as if they had seen a ghost, and then looked at the two Chinese men who were a head shorter than themselves and looked a little thin. doctor.

"Uh" Derek, who retreated to avoid, was stunned for a moment, and looked sideways at his right shoulder in disbelief.

The scary misaligned bulge that made people feel just now was gone. He tried to move his arms, and then took a breath of cold air. The pain in his right shoulder was still there. But there was joy on his face, because his right arm could move, unlike before when he had no feeling at all.

"This." Derek was stunned. He looked at his right arm, and then at the shoulders of the two Chinese men with hesitant expressions on their faces. He was sure that his dislocated shoulder seemed to be cured, but he still couldn't believe the Chinese doctors' traditional Chinese medicine.

"If you want to play as soon as possible, you'd better trust their medical skills. At least they have eliminated the risk of surgery." Yang Dongxu said.

Derek hesitated even more, but although he did not agree with the two Chinese doctors' approach, he did not back down. Because after he suddenly withdrew his arm, his recovered shoulder began to swell.

Wang Chengzhi asked Derek to sit on the ground. Derek who stood up was too tall and it was inconvenient for them to check each other's shoulders.

After a few minutes, the two people had a discussion. This time it was Zhao Yumin who spoke: "His bones were dislocated and he used too much force just now. His tendons and periosteum were strained and there was some congestion, but the bones should be fine, so now I'm using a silver needle to remove the blood stasis." The blood can be recovered in about half a month by applying traditional Chinese medicine to remove blood stasis and massage. If combined with acupuncture, the treatment can be delayed for another four or five days. "

"Give him a massage first so that he won't be in so much pain, and then send him to the hospital for a checkup. We'll discuss the next treatment." Yang Dongxu waved his hand, and then motioned to the stunned Pied to continue calling an ambulance.

External application of traditional Chinese medicine is fine, but acupuncture is a bit scary. As a Chinese, I feel scared when I see such a long silver needle being inserted into an acupuncture point all at once, not to mention these foreigners who already don’t trust traditional Chinese medicine.

This kind of thing needs to be done slowly. Anyway, the tricks the two people showed today have calmed the situation and laid a foundation for handling some bruises and traditional Chinese medicine physical therapy in the future.

At the same time, Yang Dongxu also reminded the two of them: "Don't be complacent. Traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine have their own strengths. And the physical fitness of these players is different from the patients you have come into contact with before. The doctors here are faced with patients with such physical constitutions." People have decades of research and treatment experience, so you should learn more.”

There are specialties in the medical field. Although Chinese medicine does have its own set of strengths in consolidating the foundation, Western medicine also has its own strengths. Especially in the NBA, Western medicine has been advanced and summarized for decades, and it is definitely better than the traditional Chinese medicine that has just started.

"Understood." Wang Chengzhi nodded.

Seeing the humble looks of the two people, Yang Dongxu felt relieved. The only reason why two people were chosen to come to the NBA as the vanguard of TCM publicity to the outside world is that they have excellent medical skills, and the other two people's attitude towards traditional Chinese and Western medicine is naturally not as stubborn as the previous generation, and they have good personalities and temperaments.

After going to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor and Peter were a little surprised by the photos taken of the liar, because Derek's dislocated shoulder was completely repositioned and there was no error at all. Apart from muscle strain and periosteal contusion, there was indeed congestion inside as Zhao Yumin said, and there were no other problems at all.

"There are two treatment options. The first one is to follow the doctor's advice, eliminate congestion, and then slowly recover. The second one is for them to massage you and apply some Chinese medicine externally. Your injury recovery can be doubled." The doctor checked After finishing, Yang Dongxu leaned on the chair next to Derek and said to him.

Wang Chengzhi and Zhao Yumin discussed the results of the Western medical examination with the further understanding of Derek's condition after helping him massage to relieve the pain.

Then they told Yang Dongxu that even without acupuncture, combined with the importance of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and acupoint massage, one of their specialties, Derek could recover within half a month. The doctor and Peter's suggestions just now were to rest for a month.

"It's just some external application of herbs and massage, there won't be those weird witchcraft? For example, put some poisonous insects on me or something?" Derek was terrified just by saying it.

The impression of Chinese medicine in the minds of these foreigners now is some of their imaginations, combined with the medical skills of the ancient Indian tribes that they have some knowledge of, and then distorted.

"External application of herbs and massage, there is no messy stuff." Yang Dongxu pinched his eyebrows. It is obviously a long way to go to change the impression of Chinese medicine in the minds of these foreigners.

"Then I'll try their treatment first." Derek hesitated and felt that it was a risk.

The words of his new boss in the lounge before gave him an urgent sense of crisis. He had never been so eager to play as he is now. He even regretted that he had been so indulgent before, and now even a dunk would dislocate his arm bones.

If he follows the advice of the team doctor and the hospital doctor just now, he needs to rest for a month. Then, with the time for recovery training, he can't play for less than one and a half months. One and a half months and half a month saved a whole month of time, which is undoubtedly a risk for him who feels that time is tight now.

"Then we will go back first after handling the formalities, and the treatment will be in the treatment room of the training hall." Yang Dongxu nodded.

Half an hour later, the team's special car stopped at the door of the hospital, and then a group of reporters who got the news snapped a lot of photos. After getting in the car, Peter sat at the back a little depressed. He originally just hated Chinese medicine. Now he also has a sense of crisis. He feels that his job may not be saved. The new boss is too partial to Chinese medicine.

"1.5 million for 3 years." Yang Dongxu walked to Peter and sat down and said.

"Ah?" Peter was stunned.

"1.5 million for 3 years. Buck will put the drafted contract in front of you after you return to the training hall." Yang Dongxu said.

"Really?" Peter's face suddenly lit up. A team doctor with an annual salary of 500,000 was not the highest in the NBA at that time in 1997, but it was definitely top-notch.

"You will know whether it is true or not after the signing, but try to help these two new assistants learn and understand some things about the NBA's treatment of players' injuries as soon as possible." Yang Dongxu said directly.

"No problem." Peter nodded excitedly.

A contract with an annual salary of 500,000, it is estimated that he will not be able to reach such an annual salary even if he stays in the NBA for another ten years. And once the contract is signed, it can be guaranteed that he will not be fired for no reason in the next three years, which undoubtedly gives him a reassurance when he feels the crisis.

He stayed in Philadelphia for half a month. When Derek really recovered completely and began to continuously strengthen his training under the training plan jointly discussed by Wang Chengzhi and Peter to be ready to play at any time, Yang Dongxu left the United States after Chinese medicine laid a little foundation in the team again.

He was going to fly to Europe because his previous plan was to acquire a football team in addition to the NBA team. But acquiring a football team is now much more difficult than acquiring the NBA.

After all, it is now the world's largest sport, and some wealthy clubs will definitely not sell it. And Yang Dongxu doesn't like some garbage teams, so this matter can only be put aside for the time being. After placing a profitable order with the headhunting company, Yang Dongxu flew directly back to Yanjing.

The Huaxia mobile phone card that has been constantly promoted has finally been launched, and 10,000 mobile phones are promoted along with the mobile phone card. Buy a Nokia phone worth 4,980 and apply for a Huaxia mobile phone card, and you will get 200 yuan of phone bills directly. Apply for a Huaxia mobile phone card and get 100 yuan for recharging over 100 yuan, and get a 300 yuan discount coupon for buying Nokia phones on the spot.

Compared with the previous technicians' wages of only 60 or 70 yuan a month, in the past two years, with the reform and opening up, workers' wages have generally risen, with at least 200 or 300 yuan less, and many people who are better are 700 or 800 yuan or even more.

So when many people were questioning whether Yang Dongxu's mobile phone, which was priced at nearly 5,000 yuan, would be bought, the 10,000-step mobile phone with a clear time-limited discount was sold out within a week, and more than 30,000 phone numbers between 130 and 132 were issued. For a time, even the top management was a little stunned.

After all, according to the national per capita wage statistics just released at the end of the year, for a middle-class family, 5,000 yuan of consumption is definitely a huge amount of consumption, which is the total income of a family of four workers, including a couple and parents, for several months. But even so, many families still chose to buy mobile phones and apply for phone cards.

"Never underestimate the consumption power of the Chinese." This is a very calm sentence that Yang Dongxu said after the mobile phone was sold out.
