The scene was quiet for about a minute.
Someone said, "Since Mr. Shang has mentioned the topic, I will throw out some ideas to stimulate discussion."
Someone spoke up, and others nearby began to whisper.
"It's Professor Hu Wenyi from Dongjiang Medical University."
"Yes, Professor Hu holds a very high status in the medical community of Dongjiang Province. He is a senior professor at Dongjiang Medical University. He is very knowledgeable and proficient in both Chinese and Western medicine."
Yun Heng also knew some information about Hu Wenyi. After all, he was an expert sitting in the core area and qualified to participate in the discussion. Except for Yun Heng who was forcibly pushed out by Ma Tiequan, the others were all worthy of the title and qualified to sit here.
Including Shang Wenrui and the previous host, there are only twenty-six or twenty-seven people in the core area. If we were to rank the experts who came this time, then except for Shang Wenrui, the rest would be the top twenty-five experts who came this time. Even the previous host was the secretary-general of the Dongjiang Provincial Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine and an insider.
Hu Wenyi is not a clinical doctor, but a professional researcher. In recent years, he has introduced many new concepts and scientific research topics, and has become quite famous in traditional Chinese medicine.
However, Hu Wenyi's words caused even more discussion.
After all, everyone knows that Hu Wenyi is a typical member of the faction that supports the separation of traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine.
Hu Wenyi's philosophy has always been that traditional Chinese medicine must keep pace with the times. Traditional Chinese medicine is a treasure, and its value must be explored as much as possible and maximized.
Medicine is medicine, and there is no need to confuse them.
For example, in recent years, many Chinese patent medicines and pure Chinese medicine preparations have achieved quite good results in clinical practice. In this case, why can't we maximize the value of traditional Chinese medicine?
As for employed doctors, there are nearly four million licensed doctors in the country, while there are less than 700,000 traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. Moreover, among these 700,000, practitioners of both Chinese and Western medicine, pharmacists, etc. are also included, and there are even fewer pure traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.
With such a huge disparity in the ratio, traditional Chinese medicine cannot be restricted because of the practitioners themselves, right?
This is a serious waste of resources.
Also present today are well-known traditional Chinese medicine practitioners such as Yue Anyun and Sun Boping.
Obviously, the first topic today is full of tension and is bound to be a fierce battle.
"Professor Hu, please speak."
Shang Wenrui said with a smile.
Hu Wenyi said, "Many people should know my point of view, and I would like to emphasize it again here. Although traditional Chinese medicine was born along with traditional Chinese medicine, it is, to be honest, just a kind of medicinal material. Modern medicine can be chemical drugs, biological drugs, or synthetic drugs. They all cure diseases and save lives. For the purpose of serving patients, there is no need to make such detailed distinctions."
"Even modern chemical drugs have been tested in continuous clinical practice. Whether it is traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, as long as it can withstand clinical testing, we can use it."
"I'm also a student of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and I'm proficient in both Chinese and Western medicine, so I don't oppose it. It has its merits, but it also has its drawbacks. Talent cultivation and growth are slow, and an excellent practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine depends more on talent. In today's society, I won't comment on the merits of Traditional Chinese Medicine's inherent model, but Traditional Chinese Medicine is a vast and rich medical resource. We can't seal off this huge treasure because of the limitations of Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners themselves."
"Traditional Chinese Medicine originated in our country, and so did Chinese pharmacology. But why, over the years, has our country's export volume of Chinese medicinal materials been less than that of some countries like Country R? In my opinion, this is precisely because our traditional Chinese medicine practitioners are stubborn and inflexible, and have created all kinds of obstacles, which has led to the frequent obstruction of the development of traditional Chinese medicine in our country..."
Some people present remained silent, while others nodded repeatedly as they listened.
In particular, some representatives of pharmaceutical companies strongly agree with Hu Wenyi's statement.
"It seems that the reason Dongjiang Province brought up this topic this time is precisely to guide this kind of thinking."
Ma Tiequan spoke softly to Zhou Zhiquan and others.
Just now, Ma Tiequan and others were a little puzzled. Why did Dongjiang Province bring up such a topic as the first topic?
Such topics are very controversial, and there are many influential traditional Chinese medicine experts on the scene. If things go wrong and the ideas of Yue Anyun and others prevail, it will not be beneficial to the consistent policies of Dongjiang Province.
But now, after Hu Wenyi's remarks, Ma Tiequan and others have seen through it.
It’s not that Dongjiang Province’s policies are biased, but that Dongjiang Province was well prepared this time.
Ma Tiequan took a look at the core area. In addition to Hu Wenyi, Xie Kaiyang from Shanghai was also here this time.
Xie Kaiyang is 65 years old this year, about the same age as Hu Wenyi, and is also a supporter of traditional Chinese medicine. The presence of these two extremely influential scholars and professors at the same time is of great significance.
You have to know that such a debate is not just about talking nonsense, you have to have something to support your argument.
Regardless of the positions of both sides, at least in terms of understanding, Hu Wenyi and others do not think they are wrong, and Yue Anyun and others do not think they are wrong either.
Sometimes it is not so easy to judge right or wrong.
Just like what Hu Wenyi said just now, it was not nonsense or forced sophistry, every word he said was well-founded.
In fact, the research on traditional Chinese medicine in recent years has indeed brought considerable benefits, and some Chinese patent medicines and pure Chinese medicine preparations have indeed played a significant role in clinical practice.
"I personally agree very much with what Professor Hu said."
After Hu Wenyi finished speaking, Xie Kaiyang took over the conversation: "Times keep pace with the times. We always say that we stand on the shoulders of giants to see the world. What are these giants? Giants are our predecessors, our ancestors. What does this statement mean? It means that with the progress of the times, each generation is stronger than the previous one. As modern people, we must admit that the older something is, the better it is."
"Traditional Chinese medicine does have a long and profound history. For thousands of years, it has indeed contributed to the prosperity of our Chinese nation. History has also produced many famous doctors, such as Bian Que, Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing, Sun Simiao, Li Shizhen, etc. We must remember these famous doctors of all ages, but at the same time, we must break away from the thinking of our predecessors and keep pace with the times."
"Today, we still cling to the old ways, clinging to our ancestors' ways. No one dares to touch them, no one dares to move. If anyone even touches them, they're considered traitors, traitors, and banana people..."
"This kind of thinking is absolutely unacceptable."
"Our physiques are changing, our thinking is changing, our culture is changing, so why can't Traditional Chinese Medicine change too?"
"As Professor Hu said, Traditional Chinese Medicine was once a treasure of our China. How did it come to this?"
"Oh!"
Ma Tiequan couldn't help but sneer, and now he even felt a little regretful. Why did he give the opportunity to Yun Heng?
Hu Wenyi was feeling a little better just now, but now Xie Kaiyang was basically pointing at his nose and scolding him, saying that traditional Chinese medicine practitioners were conservative and that they didn't dare to touch or move.
