Unexpectedly, this wave of flattery actually caught Blatter's attention.
When Blatter made a special trip to the air force base, Chen Yu was in the middle of a surgery. It wasn't until he finished and walked out of the operating room that he learned the FIFA president had been waiting for him for over an hour. He had another operation scheduled in just sixty minutes. When it came to performing surgeries within the European and American medical systems, Chen Yu was an absolute benchmark of diligence. Of course, compared to what he had witnessed during his previous trip to China, his current workload paled in comparison.
Taking advantage of the brief window, Chen Yu and Blatter had a quick chat in the hospital lounge.
"Chen, I actually think Sven's suggestion is quite good," Blatter said. "Fatigue and injuries severely detract from the excitement of the matches. If you could provide the corresponding medical services, it would be the absolute perfect outcome."
