Chapter 647 Is Chinese Medicine a Medical Skill?

When they saw their new boss again, although the players were not as nervous as before, they were not as casual as before. They thought they'd better show some respect for a person who let even the lazy Derek take the initiative to train.

"Derek, come here and let's talk." Yang Dongxu waved to Derek on the training ground. Although other players are still training, their attention is focused on them.

Facing Derek, who is 2.08 meters tall, Yang Dongxu couldn't help but feel some pressure. Although he was not short and was now 1.86 meters tall, his body shape was too thin compared to Derek. If the opponent is as strong as a hill, then at most it is just a fairly decent tree.

"Are you used to training recently?" The two of them walked to the rest area and sat down. Yang Dongxu took the initiative to hand Derek a drink.

"It's not bad." Derek finished his drink. This big center who can fight opponents at close quarters on the court didn't know why he felt unspeakably nervous when facing this young boss.

"What happened before was not against you. As the boss, I need the team to perform well. And your presence has set a bad example for many players." Yang Dongxu said.

"That... is indeed my fault." Derek's expression became even more nervous: "But I am already training actively now."

"I know, otherwise I wouldn't be here today." Yang Dongxu patted his shoulder and told Derek not to be nervous: "But your current changes are not enough Derek. I wonder if you have ever thought about how much more you can fight. Year’s ball?”

"This." Derek's expression suddenly became heavy for some reason.

He had never thought about this problem before, and he only focused on making his life more exciting every day. Although he is not very active in training and playing, he is extremely talented and can always get a good contract while being lazy, and this contract is enough for him to live in a dream every day.

"You are 30 years old this year, Derek. You are no longer young, and you are still suffering from injuries. Even if I let you go now, after this contract expires. Even now, the salaries of league stars are rising, but you are Most likely it will go down.

Three years? Or five years? How much longer do you think you can continue to play? And do you think your ever-decreasing salary can satisfy your current luxurious life? "

"I" Derek, who was already feeling a little heavy in his heart, didn't know why but suddenly felt a chill all around him.

It’s nothing new for NBA stars to go bankrupt after retiring, and some even live on welfare. And he is undoubtedly on the edge, because he likes to be lazy and enjoy himself, so he has not saved much money in these years.

In the past, he had never thought about how he would live after retiring. He always drank one day and got drunk the next. Anyway, he had the talent to improve his statistics. No matter how bad the contract was, he would still make a lot of money.

But now he suddenly discovered that he was so close to retirement. Two or three seasons would be over soon. And with his current physical condition after gaining weight, he had no idea whether he could play for another three seasons. Because he is 30 years old this year.

"No one wants to work because work is too tiring. It would be great to have a party with a lot of beautiful women at home every day. Isn't making money just for enjoyment?

But Derek, the life you want requires money, and a lot of it. And you are about to retire and can no longer make money. After you retire, the life that makes you extremely happy will leave you, and you may go bankrupt and receive relief. "

There was a look of panic on Derek's face, and the sudden sense of crisis made goosebumps rise all over his body. He was sweating all over from training, but now he felt extremely cold.

"So for the good life you want, and for you to be able to live happily ever after after retirement. I suggest that you'd better get your condition back to its peak now, or even better.

That way your salary won't drop after the contract expires, but will skyrocket. If you can get Jordan's salary, even if it is only for one year, it will be a great guarantee for your retirement life. "Yang Dongxu stood up and patted Derek's shoulder again and walked out of the lounge.

Derek, who had always lived a careless life, fell into a little thought. The impoverished life of the bankrupt star kept dazzling in front of him, and Jordan's huge salary turned into piles of beautiful women and fine wine also dangled in front of his eyes.

After walking out of the lounge, Yang Dongxu came to the infirmary with two Chinese medicine doctors and a translator. The 76ers' team doctor is Peter Colson, a graduate student in Western medicine physical therapy. He has rich experience in treating injuries. Although he is not the top in the NBA Yes, but in the upper middle class.

So when his new boss introduced two Chinese people and said that they would work with him as assistants in the future, Peter was very reluctant. Do Chinese know medical skills? Do you mean mashing some plants into a paste and attaching it to wounds to treat diseases?

Please, we are in a technological society now, and we need to talk about science, so those old antiques should have been too cheap a long time ago. Western medicine is the real medical skill. However, although he was dissatisfied, he did not express it. Because the young-looking new boss in front of him is not as kind as he appears on the surface, and he doesn't want to lose the job with a very good salary in front of him.

"Doctor, hurry up, the boss is injured." Just when Yang Dongxu asked Pide to bring two more Chinese medicine doctors, a player hurried over, followed by a group of companions carrying Derek.

"How could this happen?" Yang Dongxu was shocked. He looked at Derrick's painful face and saw a large bulge on his shoulder. It was obvious that his bones were dislocated.

"Boss, I wanted to try a dunk, but..." Iverson said helplessly.

Dunking is a common thing for all centers. Even though Derrick is now as fat as a ball, he has no problem dunking the basket with his height and previous foundation.

But the problem is that Derrick, who was preached by Yang Dongxu just now and wanted to prove that he was in good physical condition, wanted to do a long-distance dunk.

The impact of a 240-pound big meat mountain flying up is unreasonable. In addition, Derrick overestimated his physical fitness and underestimated his weight after getting fat. As a result, after the dunk, he wanted to grab the basket and show off his landing, but his arm was directly dislocated.

"The shoulder is completely dislocated, and there may be a fracture. Go to the hospital for an X-ray, and maybe surgery." Peter roughly checked Derek's shoulder, and said hurriedly after combining the cause of the injury.

"Can you give it a try?" Yang Dongxu did not agree with Peter immediately, but turned to look at Wang Chengzhi and Zhao Yumin next to him.

Promoting Chinese medicine to the NBA was a plan he had made before acquiring the team, and even if there were no X-rays for orthopedics, Chinese medicine was at the ancestral level.

"I'll check it first." Wang Chengzhi, who was a little older, looked at Derek's dislocated shoulder and didn't say yes.

"What are you doing? Get out of the way, he needs to be sent to the hospital immediately." Seeing that the Chinese Chinese medicine doctor, who he didn't like very much, came forward at this time, Peter, who was using an ice pack to cool Derek, was furious.

"Let him see Peter." Yang Dongxu said beside him.

"This will delay the condition." Peter looked unhappy.

"It won't take a few minutes."

"If there is a more serious injury, I will not be responsible." Peter's resentment in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

He had diagnosed the condition himself, but the boss and the Chinese doctor actually wanted to do another fearless examination. He felt that his professional ability was seriously questioned.

"I'm responsible." Yang Dongxu replied, and then looked at Derek, who was sweating on his forehead: "Derrick, let this doctor check you again. If you really have to go to the hospital for surgery, you may have to be reimbursed for this season, and you will have to renew your contract when it expires, which is also a big minus."

Derrick also heard the conversation between him and Peter just now, so he was also repulsive when he saw that this Chinese man he didn't know at all wanted to help him treat his injury, so Yang Dongxu could only comfort him.

Derek hesitated and gritted his teeth: "I can ask him to help me take a look, but if he is not sure, I want to go to the hospital as soon as possible."

Yang Dongxu's last sentence undoubtedly hit Derek's soft spot. The reason why he just dunked from a long distance was to prove that his current physical fitness is still strong. In addition to data, the personal physical condition is also one of the important criteria for a player's salary, and surgery is undoubtedly the biggest minus item in this criterion.

"I promise, he's just checking you. If he's not sure, he won't treat you. After all, no one wants to be sued, right?" Yang Dongxu consoled with a smile.

This made Derek feel relieved. To be honest, he was full of anger and resentment towards the young boss in front of him. But after talking in the lounge just now, he didn't know why he felt a little scared when he looked at the boss in front of him. Sometimes, the wrist that figures out the heart is more frightening to the other party than hitting the other party's body.

Wang Chengzhi stepped forward to check it, and Zhao Yumin followed suit. Finally, the two looked at each other, and Wang Chengzhi nodded to Yang Dongxu: "You can try to reset it."

"How sure are you?"

"Eighty percent, but the other party needs to cooperate. His bones and muscles are much harder than ordinary people, so the force of reset is also greater." Wang Chengzhi said after a pause.

If it were an ordinary patient, this reset would be a sure thing. After all, he makes his living by this skill. In the past, there were fights over illegal mining in their area, and some people's bones were broken and exposed. He could just press them back and tie them up with splints to fix them. What's more, it was just a dislocation.

"I'll cooperate, you two can do it together." Yang Dongxu said.

After that, he waved his hand: "You move aside, let them help Derek. They will be the assistants of the team doctor in the future and know some medical knowledge, so that you won't help Derek with the wrong strength and make his injury worse."

He and Wang Chengzhi spoke in Chinese, so no one except the specially invited translator could understand. Therefore, when he ordered everyone in English, the players quickly moved aside, and Peter didn't feel anything, and Derek naturally had no objection.
