Naturalized players?

Regarding the development of domestic football, Lin Jie was neither a professional nor a fan and had little interest.

He just intuitively believed that naturalized players were a temporary solution that addressed the symptoms rather than the root cause, and wouldn't significantly promote the development of domestic football.

He was currently considering this player's injuries from a doctor's perspective.

The human knee, from the moment we start learning to walk, has been subjected to training from all directions. To a certain extent, it could be said that it is the hardest bone in the human body.

In close combat, using the knee to attack the opponent is often a highly damaging maneuver.

The hardest means it is not prone to damage, but it also means that once damaged, it is hard to recover.

Lin Jie flipped through the medical records of this football genius named Anders and found that he had undergone surgery on his right knee. The recovery was not very good, which made his right leg stiff when walking, naturally forcing him to bid farewell to football permanently.

Lin Jie once again placed Anders' bone injury X-ray in front of him, contemplating possible treatment plans...

Nie Yuming sat quietly beside him, not daring to disturb Lin Jie.

Fifteen medical records, selecting four, this ratio...

He was very satisfied, even pleasantly surprised; this far exceeded Ye Peihua's initial expectations.

After all, these individuals were once leading players in various teams of the top five leagues, worth quite a fortune.

After being injured, they would have been sent to the most renowned medical institutions for treatment at the earliest opportunity.

Facing patients whom these famous medical institutions could do nothing for and ultimately gave up on, Lin Jie single-handedly picked out four who could recover, giving Nie Yuming a more intuitive understanding of Lin Jie's medical skills.

At this moment, he was very relieved, and also somewhat scared.

Luckily, back then, he was cautious enough not to be swayed by Qiao Hongzhen and did not commit any excessive, irreparable actions against Lin Jie at first.

Otherwise, based on Lin Jie's medical skills alone, the outcome would definitely have been him being thrown out as a scapegoat by Ye Peihua to appease Lin Jie.

Looking at the four marked medical records, Nie Yuming thought of Ye Peihua's instructions and quietly made a decision.

In fact, besides these fifteen medical records, Nie Yuming had also brought more than twenty additional medical records in the off-road vehicle as backups this time.

However, those alternative players were either playing in second or third-tier leagues or were too old, making it hard for them to play for more than two or three years even if they recovered.

Now, with these four international top-tier players to work with, there's no need to consider those second and third-tier players for the time being.

At this moment, seeing Lin Jie's eyes focus, Nie Yuming understood that he had returned from his thoughts and lightly asked, "Expert Lin, is there hope for this player?"

Lin Jie pondered for a moment and said, "Purely studying this medical record, there is hope for this individual to fully recover."

"However, specifically, I need to conduct a comprehensive examination on him to be sure."

He straightforwardly said, "Mr. Nie, even if this individual's examination results meet my expectations, the chances of full recovery would not exceed fifty percent, and restoring his original football skills would not exceed thirty percent."

"Therefore, whether or not to include this young man in your operations is your decision to make."​

Nie Yuming nodded, saying, "Expert Lin, I will relay your words to the boss without missing a single word."

By now, the sky over Bamboo Sea was already dimming.

Lin Jie had been studying these players' medical records for two or three hours without realizing it, and a bonfire had already been lit in the small square in front of National Village, with music playing too.

"Mr. Nie, it's dinner time. Join us for a meal and stay the night here!"​

Lin Jie very politely extended the invitation.

Nie Yuming put away the medical records, giving a wry smile, "Thank you for the invitation, but I've had too many things lately. I still have to drive back while there's still some light, and I can only have dinner on the plane."

"Another day when Expert Lin goes to the Capital City, I shall treat you to a royal feast."

Seeing him say this, Lin Jie did not insist further and stood up to see him off with An Kexin.

Nie Yuming walked a few steps and turned back, saying, "Expert Lin, you might be interested in knowing about Qiao Hongzhen's recent situation. After being deprived of his license to practice medicine, he was also continuously sued in court by others for medical malpractice and contract fraud."

"It's expected that even if he somehow manages to get out of it, the wealth he's accumulated over the past decade would be drained."

For this act of kicking a man when he's down, Lin Jie was quite pleased to hear about it.

Everyone has a scale in their hearts.

As a profession that can foster extensive connections, doctors, as long as they conscientiously do their work, may not make every patient grateful, but at least they will foster goodwill."

Now, seeing Qiao Hongzhen facing such a dire situation from all sides, one can tell he had significant issues with his usual conduct and medical ethics.

Watching Nie Yuming drive away, Lin Jie and An Kexin returned to the small square in front of the village, where they saw Zhang Xiaoxiao, Lin Miao, and An Kemeng sitting in a bamboo pavilion eating fruit, still waiting for them to order.

An Kemeng complained, "Sister, Brother Jie, we've tried almost every dish on the menu already, and they're all too greasy and heavy. I hardly have an appetite left."

Lin Jie laughed, "No way you've tried everything! We haven't had the Insect Feast yet. How about we order that tonight?"

"No way!"

"I'm not eating bugs!"

An Kemeng and Lin Miao opposed in unison.

Lin Jie couldn't help but laugh. Last night, at An Kemeng's suggestion, the group ordered a bug dish, deep-fried bamboo worms.

An Kemeng, who had been bragging loudly, wilted at the sight of the bugs. Amid their teasing, she closed her eyes and gritted her teeth to eat just one bamboo worm, then vowed never to eat them again.

Lin Jie, An Kexin, and Zhang Xiaoxiao, after reluctantly trying some, surprisingly found the bugs tasted okay, and each ate a little.

Of course, most of the dish was finished by Lele.

As a pet dog, besides eating dog food, Lele always eats whatever the owners eat, has a great appetite, and is never picky.

"Alright, Miaomiao, Kemeng, you two stop frowning."

Lin Jie glanced at An Kexin, then continued, "Tomorrow morning, we're setting off to hike along the stream to see the waterfall. So, you need to eat more tonight, or you'll be low on energy tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, An Kemeng suddenly perked up and, smiling, said, "My appetite suddenly improved. Brother Jie, I can definitely eat a lot..."

Around 9 pm, Tian Xiangyu, Fang Huanru, Song Licheng, Zhao Fang, and others took their leave from Xiangtai Apartment, but Xiao Ganghao was asked to stay by Zou Manqing, obviously because the two had something to discuss.

Turning back to look at the tall apartment building, Fang Huanru suddenly asked, "Tian Xiangyu, did you ask about our future plans on purpose?"

With that, Song Licheng and Zhao Fang also turned their eyes to Tian Xiangyu.

Tian Xiangyu nodded and said, "Partly intentional, partly not. I only knew Xiao Ganghao's previous workplace was a small hospital, didn't expect he had a service term agreement with them."

He sighed and said, "It's better to get this matter out early, after all, they just started dating. What if it gets serious and then this is brought up?"

He snorted and said, "After all, Zou Manqing is a relative of our teacher. If this ends badly, the teacher definitely won't forgive Xiao Ganghao."

At this, Fang Huanru looked at Song Licheng and Zhao Fang and said, "As for work, the teacher never explicitly told us to work at Anlin Hospital."

"I suspect the teacher might be worried that saying it outright would put pressure on us."

"After all, we won't lack job offers, and given Anlin Hospital's conditions, it can't provide us with lucrative terms."

Fang Huanru earnestly warned, "The teacher has given us the power to choose freely, but that doesn't mean we can choose recklessly."

"I know the headhunting company that's been contacting us the most frequently offers exceptionally attractive terms, but do you know which hospital it's for?"

"Which hospital?" Song Licheng and Zhao Fang asked in unison.

Headhunting companies usually provide a general description of the employer's strength and basic situation at the start. When discussions are nearly concluded, they reveal the employer's identity if there's interest.

Fang Huanru softly said, "It's Phoenix Mountain Hospital, that's what my dad told me."

"You might not know, but the owner of Phoenix Mountain Hospital, the Wantong Group, doesn't get along well with the An Family behind the teacher. There's a significant conflict."

"If you end up choosing Phoenix Mountain Hospital, I think the teacher would be very upset."

Zhao Fang couldn't help but say, "So there's such a complicated competition in the business world! Senior Sister Fang, are there any other hospitals that are landmines? Tell us so we don't accidentally step on one."

Fang Huanru laughed and said, "Tongren Hospital!"

"Although the teacher's surgery was done at Tongren Hospital, some conflict arose. Less than three weeks after the surgery, the teacher was kicked out of the hospital..."

"Wow, such things happen too!" Zhao Fang was shocked beyond belief.

Song Licheng hesitated for a moment, then said, "It's best not to go to Tongren Hospital West Branch either; there seemed to be some unpleasantness between the teacher and Dean Tao."

Zhao Fang noted, "Donghua Hospital currently has a bad reputation among doctors. Eliminating Tongren Hospital, plus West Branch, and coupled with Phoenix Mountain Hospital, not to mention the well-known rival Kangning Hospital of the teacher..."

"That's just a few hospitals; there are still one or two dozen top-tier hospitals to choose from in Binhai City. However..."

Zhao Fang changed the topic with a giggle, "Barring major surprises, I'll choose Anlin Hospital."

She waved a little fist and exclaimed, "At the very least, I'll learn about 70-80% of the teacher's skills before considering going solo."

"Seventy to eighty percent?"

Song Licheng teased, "I bet even if you learn for a lifetime, you won't reach 70-80% of the teacher's skills."

"As for myself, whether to start working or continue studying abroad, I'll find a time to discuss it with the teacher."
