"Junior Brother!"
After Yun Heng, Michelle Lin, Zhou Wanlin and others found a place to sit down, Zhou Zhiquan and others also arrived one after another.
Yun Heng has many acquaintances here, so he found a big round table. Generally, when eating, everyone would gather with people they knew. Some would eat alone, while others would go with a group of people, and no one would just come together casually.
After Yue Anyun, Ma Tiequan and others arrived, the big round table was almost full.
"Junior brother, that's Chen Fanming over there."
While eating, Zhang Haihua, Ma Tiequan and others introduced some people in the restaurant to Yun Heng.
Yun Heng followed Zhang Haihua's gaze and saw a middle-aged man who looked to be in his early forties looking over. When he saw Yun Heng looking at him, Chen Fanming smiled slightly, and Yun Heng also smiled back.
"That's from Country H."
Ma Tiequan pointed lightly with his chopsticks.
Two middle-aged men in their fifties accompanied a middle-aged man in his forties.
"The one on the left is Park Seung-yeon, the one on the right is Kim Cheon-hwa, and the younger one is Jiang Zhenghui from Dongzheng Pharmaceutical in H country."
"Korean medicine in Country H is basically a folk medical clinic model. Although Country H does not recognize Korean medicine as Chinese medicine, it is the only country besides our country that recognizes the legal coexistence of Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. In Country H, the income of skilled Korean doctors is quite considerable."
"Um!"
Yue Anyun nodded and said, "Country H has been greatly influenced by our country, so it has been trying to break away from our cultural influence. Instead, it attaches great importance to traditional culture and fabricates its own history. Although the history is fabricated, it has also created an atmosphere in which Country H attaches importance to traditional culture."
"So in Country H, Korean medicine practitioners are actually under quite a lot of pressure. They face a large number of patients and a high probability of encountering difficult and complicated diseases. This has indeed led to the emergence of some of the most outstanding Korean medicine practitioners in Country H."
As he spoke, Yue Anyun couldn't help but sigh: "This is also because H country is small in area, small in population, and small in population base, so overall it is definitely not as good as our country. But if H country had our country's population base, plus the atmosphere in their country, Korean medicine might really be better than our Chinese medicine."
"Mr. Yue is absolutely right."
Zhou Wanlin said, "Traditional culture has its dregs, but it also has its essence. If we really talk about the historical origins of our country, the essence naturally outweighs the dregs."
"Before the Qing Dynasty, our country had always stood at the top of the world in terms of economy and military. It is no exaggeration to say that we were the world's most powerful country."
"Otherwise, why are we still talking about the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation?"
"Rejuvenation is precisely because we were once so glorious. What we are striving for now is actually just to regain our former glory. But it is precisely because of the country's weakness in modern times and the oppression of foreign powers that the people have lost confidence that they have completely overturned our traditional culture. It is quite ridiculous to say so."
"Professor Zhou made a very good point."
Ma Tiequan picked up the soy milk beside him and said, "I'd like to toast Professor Zhou."
"Director Ma, you're too polite."
Zhou Wanlin also picked up his orange cup and clinked it with Ma Tiequan.
"Professor Zhou's words just now really hit the nail on the head."
Zhou Zhiquan, who was usually quiet, also said, "To be honest, the Jin and Qing dynasties were actually invasions by a small number of foreign races. These foreign races were not defined by race, but by culture. Our Chinese nation has experienced many great integrations in history. No matter what race they were before, once they were influenced by Chinese culture, they became Chinese. We cannot completely deny our history and traditions because of a momentary mistake or weakness."
"yes."
Yue Anyun said, "Even when a drought is followed by a downpour, some people will complain. How can there be anything perfect in this world? Our traditional culture did have its shortcomings, but it still has a lot of essence. I have never believed that foreign things are better than our own."
Yun Heng didn't say anything, but seemed to be thinking about something.
What Zhou Wanlin and others said was indeed very objective.
For example, in the past, China has always ruled the world with "filial piety". Although there are still unfilial people in this environment, at least some people who want to become officials and become famous must abide by this "filial piety".
At that time, no matter how high your official position was, if you were unfilial, your future would be ruined.
This "filial piety" is not without flaws, but Yun Heng feels that, in a broad sense, it is a moral constraint.
After all, generally speaking, there are bad parents, but 99.9% of parents are still wholeheartedly thinking about their children. If they can't even be filial, how can they be considered human beings?
Take traditional Chinese medicine for example. We don’t learn classical Chinese or traditional culture anymore. Instead, we learn math, physics, and chemistry. Of course, this doesn’t mean that math, physics, and chemistry shouldn’t be learned, but that they should all be given equal importance.
You don’t understand yin and yang, the five elements, and tradition, and then you can’t understand Chinese medicine. But then you say that Chinese medicine is not keeping up with the times. Is this really fair?
As Qu Tongwen, Ji Fengwen and others have said before, traditional Chinese medicine has now lost its own soil.
Traditional Chinese medicine is actually rooted in traditional culture. What the scholars in the past learned were the basics of traditional Chinese medicine. It is easy for them to get started when studying traditional Chinese medicine. Even ordinary people roughly know what the five elements and yin and yang are.
But now, even top students and highly educated people, because they are exposed to so many things, like to quantify everything, and instead have only a superficial understanding of the Five Elements and Yin and Yang, or like to have a wrong understanding of them.
If the skin is gone, where will the hair attach to?
"That's Country R."
Ma Tiequan pointed at Yun Heng again.
"The status of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Country R is somewhat more awkward than that in Country H. It depends on the region. However, the Chinese medicine in Country R is very good. Our Traditional Chinese Medicine has been renamed Korean Medicine by Country H, and then renamed Chinese Medicine by Country R and sold back to China. However, our Traditional Chinese Medicine... "
As he said this, Ma Tiequan couldn't help but shook his head.
"That's Mr. Sun Boping from Hong Kong."
While eating, several people introduced to Yun Heng some of the more powerful or special people who came this time.
"Basically, at every expo, we have some conflicts with Country H and Country R, especially at expert exchange meetings."
Ma Tiequan said to Yun Heng.
“And the expert exchange meeting is also one of the most exciting parts of the expo.”
Yun Heng looked at Ma Tiequan and asked, "Why are you telling me this?"
Shouldn't this kind of thing be the specialty of horse trolls?
No matter which country the expert is from, just criticize him as much as you can.
He Yun Heng is not a jerk.
He is just a quiet and handsome man.
