“What’s the bet? I won’t lose anyway.”

This unknown Daimon is really full of confidence. He can fight one man at a time and three horses at a time. It is estimated that no one in Japan can stop him. But sorry, this is not your small country.

“Bet on which treatment plan Jobs will choose later.”

Jiang Ming wanted to laugh when he saw her domineering manner, but seeing that she had manicures and earrings, he felt that she was a nightclub lover.

But just as Jiang Muyan said, a doctor like this is a gifted one, who disdains the world and stands out from the crowd.

“OK, no problem!”

Daimon Michiko’s pointed chin slightly raised, feeling a sense of crisis that she absolutely could not fail. In Jiang Ming’s eyes, this woman was so cool and so different.

So Jiang Ming also smiled and said:
“Are you going to agree to this without asking what the stakes are?”

Daimon: “Because I won’t fail.”

Jiang Ming:

“Then let me first tell you about your failed bet. If Jobs doesn’t choose your plan, then you can join our clinic tomorrow.”

Damen’s eyes suddenly widened.

Jiang Ming waved his hand to signal her to calm down:
“Don’t worry. You won’t be allowed to go too far from home. The Chinese branch is also the deputy director of the hospital. She is a female doctor from your Nihong school, Xuecun Baiye. You should know her.”

“Doctor Bai Ye, I know him! A knowledgeable doctor!” Daimon Michiko’s pupils really dilated. Because she was not worldly-wise, she just knew that Xuecun Bai Ye had been recruited by Jiang Ming’s team. This was a loss to the Japanese medical community.

“Well, the stakes are simple, right? You can be the vice president of the Chinese campus, or even the Neon and South Korean campuses in the future.”

“One against one against three! That’s a good bet, but I won’t accept any assignment that doesn’t require a medical license.”

Damen was also a straightforward person. He didn’t even ask what the punishment would be for Jiang Ming if he lost the bet. He just agreed directly.

“But I feel like you have a pretty rich private life.” Jiang Ming stared at her whole body. With that kind of attire, she said she only does what’s required by her doctor’s license?

As a result, the next sentence from Da Men directly broke Jiang Ming’s defense. She stared at Jiang Ming’s tall stature and handsome face and said:

“If you have an idea, just say it directly. I can accept you sleeping with me.”

“Puff” Jiang Ming turned and went into the bathroom. He rarely had a sudden flush.
Maybe it’s because I met Xuecun Baiye first, I didn’t expect other Japanese doctors to be so open-minded.

It took a long time to conquer Xuecun, and he used the excuse of studying the dynamic changes of human body structure to conquer him.

And this Xiao Wei is just as unrestrained as her style of dressing and doing things.

Daimon Michiko poked her head towards the men’s room and said:
“Then my bet for success is to sleep with you. Okay, you’re the first person I’ve ever taken a fancy to!”

Jiang Ming rolled his eyes in the bathroom:

“Whatever you want, keep your voice down.”

Fortunately, there is no one here, otherwise his wisdom would be completely ruined. Xiao Wei is too straightforward.

But he is sure to win against this long-legged doctor!

Confidence leads to failure, just wait till you meet Steve Jobs.

Half an hour later.

Several specially invited doctors put on silent shoes and entered Jobs’ sterile ward.

Damen gracefully took off her high heels and threw a wink at Jiang Ming, appearing determined to win.

Jiang Ming teased with two words: “Jade feet, not bad.”

Jiang Muyan patted Jiang Ming on the shoulder and said angrily:
“Dean, now is the time to get down to business. Saying anything will only harm you.”

When they entered the ward, even Unknown Ko couldn’t help but gasp.

She finally understood why Jiang Ming wanted to see Jobs in person before making a decision.

Because Jobs has now gotten up from his hospital bed and is sitting in his work chair, looking at documents in front of his Apple computer.

But what is completely different from what was shown in the previous shot is that Jobs now looks extremely weak, much weaker than in the projection. It may be because there are so many people consulting with him, and he wants to appear in the best condition possible.

But now, with only these few doctors here, there is no need to pretend.

The jeans and black top he was wearing were too big for his size.

In addition, his thinning hair indicated that Jobs may have undergone chemotherapy for a period of time.

It’s much more “skinny” than the scene in the video just now. Is this still the genius CEO who was so high-spirited at the Apple conference?
“He’s so skinny.”

Jiang Ming couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. Illness can really destroy a person. Mainly because all the impressions they had of Jobs before were of a natural and energetic speaker in newspapers and videos. The difference now was too great.

“Hello, fellow doctors~”

After the assistant whispered a few words in Jobs’ ear, Jobs turned slightly from the computer and faced Jiang Ming directly. Jiang Ming felt shocked.

The chubby and round face before has turned into a thin face now.

This is Steve Jobs. Jiang Ming has seen many ordinary patients. It is really hard for him to imagine how the Apple president who seemed to be so lively last month has become like this now.

The other doctors had similar expressions, mainly because they had never seen such a big transformation like that of a president.

It is said that illness comes like a mountain falling, but for people like Paul Allen, their conditions were discovered in the early stages, and their conditions did not suddenly deteriorate to this extent when they were discovered. But it seems that Jobs aged overnight.

This also attracted many doctors to come forward to express their condolences, and Jobs said:

“Disease is like a kind of blame in life. People can’t help but think about it. Well, what is coming will come.”

After saying this philosophical remark, he didn’t seem to want to waste too much time chatting, and went straight to the point, asking the doctors about the cause and treatment of his relapse. Everyone is afraid of death, and so is Jobs.

And he seemed to have a lot of innovative things in his mind that he hadn’t realized, so he was very unwilling to give up.

After everyone finished speaking, Jobs looked at Jiang Ming’s team and asked, “Doctor Jiang, what do you think?”

Jiang Ming nodded slightly:

“I don’t know how much of your pancreas was removed at the time. There may be some residue left, which will cause the continued digestive disorders and the recurrence now.”

Aaron Swenson frowned. Doesn’t this mean that the surgery he performed on Jobs in 04 was not done well?

So Aaron Swenson interrupted and asked:

“So how do you think it should be treated?”

Jiang Ming’s answer was also very simple:
“Eat and drink as you should, take Chinese medicine and conservative treatment, and you can extend your life as long as possible.”

He still held the same opinion, that is, Jobs’ condition could not be cured and he was just waiting for death to come. It would be better to be happy every day. Facing the cold hospital bed every day would only speed up his death.

This made the eyes of Apple employees tear up. After all, this was Jiang Ming. If the miracle doctor Jiang Ming said there was no hope, who wouldn’t believe him?

Although Jiang Ming’s traditional Chinese medicine treatment is also very powerful, they all know that traditional Chinese medicine cannot cure the root cause of this disease. They still have to use surgery to get rid of the pathogen, right?
But the other doctors were all indignant, especially Michiko Daimon, who couldn’t help but want to argue. They all supported the surgery.

Jiang Muyan quickly added:

“What our dean meant is that the core idea of ​​TCM treatment is ‘holistic conditioning’ and ‘strengthening the body’s health and eliminating evil’, aiming to enhance the body’s self-healing ability, relieve symptoms and improve the quality of life.”

Jobs’ eyes lit up:
“Director Jiang means that I can go to work normally and just use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment? Then can I not stay in the ward?”

Jiang Ming nodded: “Of course.”

So Jobs quickly asked a key question:
“Then how long do you think I can live in this state?”

Everyone looked at Jiang Ming. This was a question doctors were often asked. For terminally ill patients, the most important concern was how many days they could live.

This question is a life-threatening one for the patient, and no matter how the doctor answers it will be wrong.

If you talk too much, the patient will feel that you are lying to him, because the pain in the body is not fake.

If you say less, the patient will call you incompetent.
Therefore, many doctors choose to talk to the family members rather than directly to the patient.

Jiang Ming’s answer immediately made everyone look at him differently:

“All I can say is that remembering that you could die at any moment is the best way to prevent yourself from falling into the trap of fear… You have nothing left, there is no reason not to follow your heart.”

Jobs nodded in agreement:

“You are worthy of being a miracle doctor from China. This is why Paul Allen and others admire you. Not bad.”

Then Sean talked about the specific conservative treatment process, including
【Treatment based on syndrome differentiation,

Chinese medicine conditioning,

acupuncture,

Diet conditioning,

Emotional regulation (Chinese medicine believes that “emotions” are closely related to disease. As a high-intensity entrepreneur, Jobs may have been under long-term stress.

So Jiang Ming would suggest:

Regulate emotions: Relax your body and mind through meditation, Ba Duan Jin, etc.

Soothing the liver and relieving depression: Use drugs that soothe the liver and regulate qi, such as Bupleurum, Curcuma, Cyperus, etc., to relieve emotional stress.
Qigong and Tai Chi: Improve body functions through slow movements and breathing regulation. Promote the circulation of Qi and blood, and relieve fatigue and pain.

But Jobs did not immediately adopt Jiang Ming’s suggestion, because everyone present was a famous person.

Each plan can be said to be very “tempting”, mainly because when it comes from their mouths, it feels very reliable.

For example, then Michiko Daimon also came up with her own specific plan, which was that she wanted to perform a liver transplant on Jobs.

“As expected of Doctor-X.”

Jiang Muyan’s forehead was covered with sweat after hearing this.

Using liver transplants to stop neuroendocrine tumors from spreading throughout the body is extremely rare, and the top ten transplant centers in the United States probably perform no more than a hundred of these surgeries.

So Jiang Muyan couldn’t help but remind:
“Doctor Daimon, I’m afraid this won’t work.”

One is that even Jobs had to wait in line. Even if a bunch of people lined up around the world to wait in line, it would still take time to find a matching liver.

This is only a temporary solution and does not address the root cause. It is extremely risky and prone to relapse!
Perhaps the biggest reason why Damen wanted to have this surgery was because Jobs had undergone surgery in 04, which removed most of his pancreas, causing secretory dysfunction of the organ and long-term poor nutrition, which led to symptoms of jaundice and a sharp deterioration in liver function, necessitating a liver transplant?
Sure enough, the smart Jobs seemed to feel that what he heard was unreliable. He ignored Da Men’s advice and looked at Jiang Ming first:
“Doctor Jiang, what do you think of her suggestion?”

Jiang Ming only spoke in academic terms under the glare of Daimon Michiko:
“When you transplant someone else’s liver into your body, your body thinks it’s foreign.

At this time, these patients need to take immunosuppressants to “suppress” the body’s powerful immune system and “tame” it to the point where it can coexist peacefully with the transplanted liver.

Long-term use of immunosuppressants can also cause side effects.

Sometimes, patients even have to switch to other types of immunosuppressants to reduce the occurrence of side effects.

Common side effects of immunosuppressants include high blood sugar, diabetes, kidney damage, high blood lipids and decreased white blood cell count. In addition, since the body is in a state of immunosuppression for a long time, such patients are also more susceptible to bacterial infections. “

So the implication is that even if it succeeded, the side effects would make Jobs miserable.

And Jiang Ming doesn’t know how to perform this kind of surgery?

Jiang Ming can fold thousands of paper cranes using robotic arms. No surgeon has steadier hands than him. If he says a surgery cannot be performed, then it definitely cannot be performed.

As a result, Michiko Daimon was “ignored” by Jobs because of Jiang Ming’s explanation.

He was so angry that his front teeth itched and he glared at Jiang Ming.

But Jobs did not choose Jiang Ming immediately. After listening to all the doctors’ advice, he finally said to Aaron Swenson:
“Let Dr. Jiang Ming’s team stay and assist you in treating me.”

call!
Sean and Jiang Muyan smiled at each other, while Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows at the door. They had gained another great general.

And now he can speak:

“Your idea is very bold, but we Chinese doctors pay attention to combining reality with practice and proceeding from reality.

If Mr. Jobs were just an 18-year-old boy now, I would support him unconditionally, but he is an old man who has controlled his diet for many years and his internal organs are “dried up”. Whether the operation is successful or not, it will not affect his life span too much. “

The frustrated Damen put his hands on his hips, but after Jobs lay on the hospital bed, he did calm down a lot.

And I was somewhat convinced.

Because just after the final decision was made, Jobs was held by four nurses and lay on the bed. His breathing was light and slow, as if every breath required great effort. The instruments beside the bed made a regular ticking sound, reflecting the silence in the room.

In this condition, it is really impossible to perform any surgery.

Not to mention the liver transplant surgery which would require an unknown number of days of waiting.

Then, all the doctors except Jiang Ming were asked to leave, and Jiang Ming personally gave Jobs instructions and wrote a prescription:

“If the Chinese medicine store here is unreliable, you can also have it prepared at the clinic tomorrow and bring it over. Then relax. The Olympics are coming soon, so watch more Olympic games.”

Jobs looked at Jiang Ming gratefully:
“China is a good place, the people there are very nice, and you are very nice too. I hope to go there again in my lifetime.”

“Take medicine regularly, do healthy exercises, and you will have a chance.” Jiang Ming’s words made Jobs feel refreshed. Mainly because those magic needles he inserted made Jobs feel so comfortable that it was hard not to believe him.

This is the charm of top Chinese medicine.

When Jiang Ming and the other two were busy until dark and left the ward, they found that everyone had left, but Daimon Michiko was still waiting.

I saw her dozing off with her head down, looking particularly lonely sitting alone in the waiting room.

This made Jiang Ming like her more. She could have just walked away, but she didn’t expect him to keep his promise. (End of this chapter)
