Chapter 1265: Moving Stones to Crush Oneself
igible to come to the Ju Bao Pavilion were all members of the upper class in Tian Feng City, and they were very familiar with and fearful of the several Li family members.Amidst the murmuring crowd, L...After all the delegations were ready, the free clinic began at nine o'clock in the morning.
Apple Square, which was already a bustling area of Apple City, quickly drew in countless people after such a commotion.
As soon as the free clinic opened, these people rushed in, the vast majority heading straight for the Chinese delegation's side.
Seeing this, Zhang Jie was immediately overjoyed: "Big brother, look at how influential we are. These people all came because of us."
Pan Guangfa and others were all beaming with joy. After all, this was a live broadcast, and over a million people were watching in the live room.
As long as one can perform well today, it's a great opportunity to reap both fame and fortune.
They stood tall, adjusted their emotions, and were ready to receive patients. Suddenly, when these people got closer, none of them ran towards them, but they all rushed towards the Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner.
"How is this possible Are they crazy"
Pan Guangfa, Zhang Jie and others all stood there dumbfounded, unable to believe what was happening.
If not for the fact that most people here are blond and blue-eyed, they would truly think they'd taken a wrong turn and ended up back in China. Even in China, traditional Chinese medicine isn't this popular, is it
And Ye Bufan was also quite surprised, because after these people came, they did not disperse, but all crowded in front of his consultation table.
When providing free medical services in China, due to his young age, there were usually no patients waiting for him. In contrast, old men like Cao Xinghua with impressive appearances attracted long queues of people.
Today's situation was the opposite. There was a long queue at his side, while Cao Xinghua and their colleagues had no patients at all in front of their clinic.
This situation is mainly caused by two factors. Firstly, Western and Chinese ideologies differ, with people here unfamiliar with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and not believing that skill level increases with age. Instead, they perceive young people as having more abundant energy.
Secondly, the World Medical Association really put a lot of effort into promoting this event. Under Alice's leadership, traditional Chinese medicine became a highlight of the promotion.
And Ye Bufan, who could treat breast cancer on site, naturally became the most dazzling one among the many medical experts present.
Those who came to China for treatment were either influenced by media reports or were relatives and friends of those who attended the exchange meetings. They all came for the reputation of the Immortal Doctor, so they only recognized Ye Bufan.
This left Cao Xinghua and others in an awkward position. Although they were famous in China and usually had a long waiting list for appointments, nobody seemed to notice them here.
Ye Bufan gave a wry smile. This situation was definitely not workable. If he were to see so many patients himself, he'd probably be busy for three days and three nights straight.
He had to suspend the free clinic and number over a dozen old Chinese medicine practitioners. Then, he had the people who came for treatment draw lots, whoever drew would be treated by that practitioner.
Although these people were reluctant, they accepted the arrangement nonetheless.
Everything is ready, the free clinic officially starts.
Those who drew Ye Bufan's number were overjoyed, while those who didn't could only envy them from the sidelines.
These people's ailments were nothing difficult for Ye Bufan. Even some chronic illnesses were easily solved by him, without any effort at all.
While others rely on taking a patient's pulse to diagnose them, he doesn't need to. With just a scan of his divine consciousness, he can instantly grasp their condition with clarity. There are no language barriers either, and he can treat a patient in just a minute or two.
Most importantly, his diagnostic results were incredibly accurate, with absolutely no deviations, leaving every patient in awe.
Because he saw patients so quickly, the long line in front of him was steadily decreasing. In a short amount of time, the number of patients he had seen decreased by half, which made the other old Chinese medicine practitioners beside him feel quite embarrassed.
The most awkward thing wasn't him, but the fools standing beside him, like Pan Guangfa and others.
By now, they realized things were completely different from what they had expected. Although these people were Westerners, they showed no interest in Western medicine at all and instead flocked to the traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.
They racked their brains, trying to figure out why this was happening. Shouldn't these people be used to seeing Western medicine Why did they suddenly become enamored with traditional Chinese medicine
If this were usual circumstances, they probably wouldn't care too much. After all, as top experts, the last thing they lack is patients.
But now the situation is different, they just proposed to make a bet. If things continue like this, we can directly admit defeat.
At this moment, Zhang Jie and the others regret deeply. They originally wanted to take this opportunity to slap those traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in the face, but they didn't expect that they would end up hurting themselves.
In the live stream room, people seeing this scene were completely blown away, with barrage after barrage of comments flooding in.
"Holy crap, what's going on When did traditional Chinese medicine become so popular in the US"
"Did I see that wrong Are they going to a fake M country Why are foreigners so into traditional Chinese medicine" "As expected of the Immortal Doctor, as expected of my idol, he even has such a big influence in M country..."
"Damn it, I remember some people were just betting against the Immortal Doctor. Isn't this slapping themselves in the face Is there even a need to bet in this situation It's already over before it even begins…"
Looking at the barrage of comments, they were deeply disheartened.
He wanted to shut down the live broadcast, but doing so would inevitably cause a bigger backlash in China. Their brand might be completely ruined. There was no other choice but to persevere through this difficult situation.
Zhang Jie stepped forward and said, "Boss, what should we do"
"It's all your bad ideas!"
Pan Guangfa, enraged and ashamed, vented his anger on Zhang Jie. If it weren't for this guy's suggestion to make a bet, how could he have possibly gone over there and humiliated himself
He took a deep breath, suppressing the anger building inside him. It wasn't time to lose his temper yet.
"Hurry up and find a way to bring in a few patients. As long as we open the situation and show off our medical skills, there's definitely a chance for a comeback."
"The big boss is right, let's go now."
Zhang Jie also knew this was his own fault. After finishing his sentence, he hurriedly ran over to pull the person over to see a doctor.
He ran to the back of the line and said to a white old man who was waiting in line, "Sir, would you like to come over here There are fewer people over there and you don't have to wait in line."
He was once a returning student from abroad, speaking English very fluently and having no problem communicating.
The old white man sized him up: “Are you a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner”
Zhang Jie shook his head: "I'm not a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, I'm a Western medicine doctor, but my medical skills are very good..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the white old man interrupted him: "You're a Chinese person, why would you learn Western medicine instead of studying such great Traditional Chinese Medicine"
"I..."
Zhang Jie almost choked on his own saliva. After practicing medicine for so many years, he had never been questioned like this before. If it were a Chinese person asking these questions, it would be one thing, but the key was that the other party was a blond and blue-eyed foreigner.
"That... old sir, medical skills have no borders. Although I am Chinese, Western medicine is also quite good. If you have any illness, we can completely treat you..."
He was speaking passionately, but was interrupted again by the white old man.
"Even if your Western medicine skills are high, could they surpass those of our country If you want to see a Western doctor, there are many outstanding doctors in our country. Why would I go to your place"hough the people of Huajian Pai appear neither male nor female, their physiological structures in that area remain unchanged."Click!"This kick was both heavy and vicious, and everyone present heard th...
