Chapter 389: The Medicine Must Match the Symptom

"Jun Jun, you're alright? You can walk?" Jun Jun's mother covered her mouth, looking at her son in disbelief.

"That's great, truly great! Little brother, look, Jun Jun has already stood up." The man was so moved that his eyes filled with tears.

On the other side, those who had mocked Chen Yu now shut their mouths; they could hardly believe what was happening before their eyes.

They all knew about Jun Jun's illness. The Medical Research Center sometimes accepted patients with difficult and complicated cases to analyze the pathology. Jun Jun's condition was unique, so everyone had participated in the consultation.

They knew the severity of the condition and how weak Jun Jun's body was; because the blood circulation was poor, his legs could not stand.

Yet, after one pill, Jun Jun stood up. And this was the Blood Nourishing Pill that cost three yuan a box.

"The medicinal effect is still too slow," Chen Yu shook his head and said. "If it goes on like this, he will have to take it for half a year to fully recover, but because there is a problem with his blood system, he will have to take this medicine for life."

"Little brother, this is already very good. This medicine is three yuan a box; a dozen yuan a month is enough. We can afford it," the man said, his voice choked with tears.

"Yes, we spent three hundred thousand on an illness that couldn't be cured, and your three-yuan medicine cured it. We are truly so grateful to you," the woman also said, shedding tears of excitement.

This group of Medical Research Center members, who prided themselves on being high-level talent, all looked unsightly; it was as if they had been slapped in the face.

Every one of them was highly educated, graduated from well-known domestic academies, held master's or doctoral degrees, and enjoyed special state subsidies.

The result of their collective consultation was a bone marrow transplant, costing around five hundred thousand, yet they never imagined that Chen Yu could cure this disease with just a few yuan worth of medicine.

"Can I film this medicine?" Zhou Qian, who was to the side, hurriedly walked up, filmed the medicine, and then looked up and asked, "Mr. Chen, I am a reporter and am filming a program about medicine. Could I interview you later?"

"We'll talk about it later," Chen Yu shook his head and said. "Taking medicine for life? That won't do. I don't have this concept of taking medicine for life here. Come, I will perform Acupuncture on you and adjust the prescription; I guarantee you will be like a normal person in a week."

Chen Yu walked up, helped Jun Jun sit down, then took out a Silver Needle and began to perform Acupuncture on him.

After one set of needles, Jun Jun felt his whole body filled with strength.

The purple blood-clotting spots on his wrists had disappeared; he was now exactly the same as a normal person.

"Mom, Dad, I'm better! The purple spots on my body are all gone. I'm really better!" Jun Jun said excitedly.

"Quick, thank your lifesaver." The couple pulled Jun Jun along and knelt on the ground before Chen Yu: "Benefactor, you are truly our benefactor."

"Get up quickly," Chen Yu helped the three of them up and said, "The illness wasn't serious; it's just that you hadn't met the right person."

"Yes, yes, if it weren't for you, we would still have to scrape together five hundred thousand, and whether it could be cured would still be unknown," the man said gratefully.

Wu Zheng's expression immediately darkened; he felt this remark was aimed at him.

"This is the recuperation prescription. Just follow this to recuperate after you go back," Chen Yu wrote down the prescription and handed it to the couple: "Go back, and have a good night's sleep."

"Okay, okay, Mr. Chen. Once Jun Jun has fully recovered, we will come to your door to thank you in person," the family of three said gratefully.

"That won't be necessary, it's just my duty," Chen Yu smiled.

After seeing the family of three off, Chen Yu intended to leave.

"Young man, please stay," Liu Zhangxing called out to Chen Yu: "Young man, I am the director of the Medical Research Center, Liu Zhangxing."

"I didn't really believe in Traditional Chinese Medicine before, but you have refreshed my understanding of it. Can you join us?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't have the academic qualifications. Your people said that you are all high-level talent; how could someone like me, who only has a junior college degree, be worthy of being with you?" Chen Yu smiled.

"Chen Yu, don't be ungrateful. Our director has personally asked you to stay, and you still won't agree?" Wu Zheng's face turned black.

"Working with someone like you, I feel that this so-called Research Center is nothing more than that," Chen Yu said indifferently: "Director Liu, medical research is certainly important, but when you recruit people, you cannot just look at academic qualifications and ignore character."

"Some people have knowledge but are full of arrogance. I feel that such people cannot set their attitude right in any field. Farewell."

After Chen Yu finished speaking, he turned and left, leaving a group of people looking at each other in dismay.

"He just got lucky; it was only a few cents worth of medicine," Wu Zheng said indignantly.

"A few cents of medicine isn't expensive, but being able to cure an illness that hundreds of thousands couldn't with a few cents of medicine—that is ability," Liu Zhangxing said with a dark face: "It is not terrible to be less skilled than others, but what is terrible is being less skilled and refusing to admit it."

"Yes, Director Liu is right," Wu Zheng's expression was somewhat awkward.

"Everyone go back, we are having a meeting. We must have a profound understanding of today's events. I will also record this matter in the Medical Research Record for major research centers to study," Liu Zhangxing shouted.

"Yes, Director." Everyone nodded and returned to the laboratory building.

Zhou Qian, meanwhile, fiddled with a camera in her hand; she felt she had unearthed a hot topic.

"Chen Yu, do you know our stock price has exploded?" The next day, just as Chen Yu woke up, Song Mengyan's call came through.

"What's going on?" Chen Yu was stunned, not understanding what had happened.

"Weren't you treating someone yesterday? You cured an illness that couldn't be cured for hundreds of thousands with a patent Chinese medicine, the Blood Nourishing Pill, from Tianyun?" Song Mengyan said excitedly.

"Right, that happened. What does that have to do with our stock price?" Chen Yu was confused.

"You don't know yet? This was filmed by someone and uploaded to the internet. Now, the search volume for Tianyun Pharmaceuticals is topping the charts, and the stock price is flying like it's on a rocket. The company's valuation has multiplied," Song Mengyan had not yet recovered from her excitement.

"Is that so?" Chen Yu was startled and hurriedly opened his tablet to take a look. The incident of him treating Jun Jun last night had been turned into a video and uploaded to the internet.

Now, all major video websites were circulating it, the search volume was through the roof, and Tianyun Pharmaceuticals' shares were like a rocket.

First there was Qingyan Health getting a free advertisement from a certain celebrity, and now there was this video. Chen Yu felt he was truly lucky; one should know how much it costs to buy a trending topic.

Fortunately, the video had been processed, and his face was pixelated, so he couldn't be clearly identified; otherwise, he would be recognized on the street in a heartbeat.

Chen Yu remembered that the reporter named Zhou Qian said she wanted to interview him, but he left in a hurry and didn't contact her.

But the video must have been made by her. However, as a reporter, she was very careful about protecting portrait rights and privacy; the faces of important figures had been processed so they couldn't be recognized.

Chen Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to be a celebrity, but with this, Tianyun Pharmaceuticals' stock price soared, and several of the medicines under its name sold out—this was truly an unexpected joy.
