I, Doctor in the US-Chapter 435 - 428: Why is taking medicine still not enough? Has Apostle been released?
"Actually, that's just utilizing the side effects of the medication."
"Side effects?"
"Yeah, it takes some time to explain it to you."
"Here's the thing, you know about that little blue pill, right?"
"Oh, of course, I know. Many of my clients are taking it."
"But do you know what that little blue pill was initially meant for?"
"Uh? What was it for?"
"It was used to treat heart disease, only later it was discovered that it wasn't very effective for that, but it did help patients regain their vigor."
"Haha... so that's how it is."
Apostle got caught, so Zhou Mo Sen naturally had a legitimate reason not to go to that island.
With that being the case, of course, that guy Tony would come by.
For something supposedly banned, it's essential to understand that it only counts as a banned drug if it's prohibited. If not, then there's no problem.
What Zhou Mo Sen is explaining to Tony is actually the method of using the drug.
We already know about many drugs; it's just a matter of learning how to use them. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
One must understand that 'use' is the key.
It's just like Botox, which we often use in cosmetic surgery.
Don't doubt it; since it has the word 'toxin,' it's definitely poisonous.
Furthermore, Botox is considered one of the most toxic.
But look, now, thanks to technological advancements, we can control an extremely small dosage.
One Botox injection contains only 1 picogram.
This wasn't possible before.
Well, actually, maybe only about ten years ago.
In reality, our human technological advancements are getting stronger over time.
This picogram is nothing now.
So the real key is how to use the drug.
The Olympics is next year.
What can we do at the moment?
That guy Tony obviously plans to seize this opportunity to make a good profit.
Zhou Mo Sen certainly understands his mindset.
But with such limited time, competing on technology is clearly a losing battle against those big pharmaceutical companies.
Of course, someone approached Tony, obviously wanting to engage in some shady dealings.
Hmm... there's a way around that, too.
Zhou Mo Sen immediately gave Tony a very simple method.
"You need to understand some key points. Although we're selling 'drugs,' athletes are after real 'results.'
Do you understand what I mean by results?
It means..."
"What?"
Tony really doesn't get it.
Zhou Mo Sen simply enlightened him, "Athletes just want results anyway, they just hope to improve their performance through drugs.
In the end, isn't it still about results?
Isn't it still about the gold and silver medals?
And with the gold and silver medals comes a lot of money, right?
We can't provide the money.
And the performance is something they achieve themselves.
Then tell me, what should we do?"
This...
Tony's mind is really not keeping up, he's getting various injections eight times a day.
His brain is almost consumed by muscles.
Zhou Mo Sen had to further explain, "Our role is to help them achieve their desired results while using drugs.
Isn't that right?
But, the real key is indeed the results.
And we are in the business of drugs.
But let me ask you, athletes just want to cheat, right?
So, what if we give them the chance to cheat?"
"Hmm..." Tony thought hard for a moment as if he figured it out, "You mean the development of new drugs isn't really important?"
Well, you really shouldn't say it.
Zhou Mo Sen nodded, with an expression of someone finally enlightened, and said, "Exactly, there's no need for us to develop new drugs, we just need to 'use' the old drugs properly.
Then, the key is... to turn these cheating methods into not cheating.
Got it?
You should understand by now; after all, it's the same drugs, and do you really understand those testing methods?"
This... Tony does understand it now.
"Of course, I understand, for those banned substances, many people apply for exemption with some underlying health conditions.
But, how do we do it?"
Yes, Tony mentioned this before.
Now Zhou Mo Sen should come up with some new tricks!
As for this matter... hehe, it's a small thing.
"Actually, it's simple, you know that many people apply for exemption, meaning they can take drugs freely, okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit.
But it's almost like that.
Yet we're different, my situation isn't that strong.
I don't know who you're collaborating with or how capable they are.
But let me just talk from our smaller-capability perspective.
My approach is... we'll gradually test the waters.
Simply put, still use the old drugs, but have the athletes, well, break the rules..."
Before Zhou Mo Sen could finish, Tony couldn't hold back anymore.
"Uh? Isn't that game over then?"
Zhou Mo Sen laughed and said, "Don't rush, breaking rules is breaking rules, but just make some minor mistakes that can be forgiven to a certain extent.
Some athletes, isn't it true they are only suspended for a few months?"
Tony nodded, "Exactly, that's right."
There are many examples of this, with several athletes from the United States only being banned for a very short time.
Zhou Mo Sen continued, "So then, we'll proceed like this, once discovered violating banned substances,
we go for public relations, target our PR efforts... since our power isn't strong, starting with some minor officials.
But the key is, we have to craft a complete story.
Do you understand what a story is?"
"Story?"
