Chapter 19 Establishment of a Physiotherapy Center (II)

While Dr. Thomas Carter was still treating a certain "big man" in Qatar, Zhuang Mingge, who had returned to Italy, had already started the first phase of the construction of the Florence physiotherapy center according to the various medical equipment listed on the fax sent by Dr. Carter.

It is said that everything is difficult at the beginning, and Zhuang Mingge, who has a rare and abundant hand, feels that it is not difficult to buy these high-tech things that have never heard of many things, except for a little delay in transportation, other links are very smooth.

Although it has not yet reached the level where it can be freely purchased in a supermarket, all the "removable" equipment can be in place within five days after the order is placed, this efficiency makes Zhuang Mingge surprised and insatiable that if he had put a "express mail" label on the box of these medical equipment like he did at the post office, he might be able to squeeze some "water" out of the already perverted five days.

In this regard, Antonioni, who has been in the Italian football scene for many years, has the same small emotion as Zhuang Mingge: What does it mean that there are people in the DPRK who are good at errands, and there is money and good things to do? If there is no relationship with Dr. Carter, or the millions of dollars that Zhuang Mingge threw out without frowning, he wants the seller to fulfill his buying and selling obligations efficiently? Are you kidding? There are no doors!

However, what makes Zhuang Mingge feel the most is not this universal commercial "practice", but for China that would rather endure the pain and make layers of concessions, but also find a way to squeeze into the WTO in the shortest possible time.

Now that Zhuang Mingge has experienced it himself, he finally understands that behind the simple mention of "trade equality", there is really too much complexity and sadness. Not to mention anything else, if the advanced medical equipment purchased by Zhuang Mingge is sold to China, which is "isolated" by the EU from the scientific and technological barriers, it is unacceptable to China in terms of both the purchase and sale procedures and the transaction price.

The newly appointed Nielsen team doctor has become almost the busiest person in the club during this time, and his ability and familiarity with modern medicine are all needed by Zhuang Mingge, after all, the physiotherapy center has now been built, and the placement of these equipment needs to be handled by this professional.

Doctors Thomas Carter and Aaron Nelson are naturally responsible for the daily operation of the physiotherapy center and the specific operation of treating the players' injuries, and under the advice of the two, Zhuang Mingge is also preparing to return to his "motherland" in the future to see if he can find a high-level Chinese medicine practitioner to supplement and improve the work of the other two from the perspective of oriental medicine.

At this time, Zhuang Mingge was visiting the construction of the supporting facilities of the Florence physiotherapy center with the Nelson team doctor, such as gymnasium, swimming pool, massage room, and other large and small health facilities, which can be said to be readily available in the newly built physiotherapy center in Florence, which also unexpectedly saved Zhuang Mingge, who was originally ready to continue to invest a lot of money in this area according to the advice of experts.

This is also due to the advice of Dr. Nelson, in the most economical and practical way, targeted improvements, such as without increasing the original floor area of the massage room, re-rationalizing the layout, especially the addition of the content of traditional Chinese medicine massage, of course, this equipment needs to wait for Zhuang Mingge to "capture" a Chinese medicine doctor before it can be equipped accordingly.

"Well, Dr. Nelson, what do you think is missing from the physiotherapy center right now?"

Although Zhuang Mingge himself already felt that there was nothing to add, as a layman, Zhuang Mingge, who was quite self-aware, was very modest in front of experts.

At this time, in the face of Zhuang Mingge's inquiry, Aaron Nelson, who has been "reporting worries but not good news" since coming to Florence, seemed very hesitant at this time.

Looking at Nelson's expression of wanting to speak, Zhuang Mingge knew that he had something to say.

"Dr. Nelson, do you think there are any more problems now? …… It's okay, but it's okay to say it, whatever you say, I'll take it. ”

"Well, maybe I'm overthinking, I think the club may still be a little bit underfunded in terms of physical therapy centers."

"Uh, what do you mean......" Zhuang Mingge was still wondering how the doctor could have such concerns, and Karin next to him raised an objection one step ahead of him.

"Dr. Nelson, I think you're a little too cautious, you must know that the budget for the construction of the physiotherapy center has reached a staggering 2 million US dollars, even we have invested more than 1 million dollars at present, and I remember that the cost of the rehabilitation center that was just built in Barcelona last year did not exceed 1 million US dollars, and they are already the most advanced athlete rehabilitation center in Europe, I think, even if Florence is a little higher than their construction standards. There won't be a shortage of funds, right? ”

Karin's words also reflected Zhuang Mingge's inner thoughts, and the latter nodded approvingly while listening. In Zhuang Mingge's memory, even the rehabilitation center in the later Inter Milan, which almost copied the original from his neighbor at a high price, the total cost was just over $2 million, including the transfer of jishu royalties.

Zhuang Mingge didn't know where Nelson's worries came from, and he was a little apprehensive in his heart, so he could only wait for the next step from the expert in front of him.

Nelson also seemed to feel that what he had just expressed was a little vague, so he rearranged his thoughts and said:

"Mr. President, what you just said is an investment in infrastructure. And what I mean is that in terms of the construction of related supporting facilities, whether the capital investment is in place, such as the number of related employees such as physiotherapists, masseurs, nutrition analysts, etc., and the construction of the supporting electronic system, will not allow us to carry out pure human operation, if so, according to the current scale of this physiotherapy center, I am afraid that it will be difficult to hire more staff to achieve the desired effect. ”

"Uh, Mr. Nelson, you're worried about that......"

Zhuang Mingge, who finally understood what Nelson meant, finally landed on a big stone in his heart at this time, because these problems raised by the doctor just now are another core project of the experimental center - the information center for computer management, analysis and prediction and the establishment of a player database can be directly solved, and the capital budget of this project, Zhuang Mingge has not been included in the budget of the physiotherapy center at all, so the current capital investment of the physiotherapy center is completely sufficient.

Zhuang Mingge was a little surprised that Dr. Nelson was able to consider the problem so comprehensively, these considerations seem to have gone beyond the scope of modern medicine, he has mastered very advanced medical theory and practical experience, and can keep pace with the times, and even be able to think about problems from the macro management level.

Zhuang Mingge, who was proud of having found another talent, told Dr. Nelson that $2 million was just the budget for the construction of the physical therapy center, and the total budget for the entire experimental center would reach $5 million!
