Chapter 718: Money First



"Welcome, welcome, warmly welcome Dr. Rochester!"

All the leaders of Jiangcheng Medical University showed up, smiling warmly and taking the initiative to greet them.

A tall, middle-aged white man with a haughty look straightened his clothes and got out of the car with his head held high.

"He is Dr. Rochester, isn't he?"

"It must be. Didn't you see the message the school just sent?"

"I heard that Dr. Rochester only treats the rich and powerful, and charges millions of dollars for a consultation. I'm afraid he makes more money from one consultation than I earn in my entire life!"

“I wish I could make money like this in the future!”

"If we can make money this way, then ordinary people would probably have to pay tens of thousands of yuan to see a doctor for a cold!"

The medical students around were talking about it, and many of them were waving their arms excitedly and shouting to Dr. Rochester. If it weren't for the school staff and bodyguards trying their best to maintain order, these students would probably have rushed over.

"Traditional Chinese Medicine is doomed!"

Not far away, Luo Libin also got out of an Audi A8 behind and couldn't help but sneer when he saw this scene.

His choice was correct. Traditional Chinese medicine has no future and will sooner or later be eaten up by Western medicine. No, to be more precise, it will be eaten up by modern medicine.

Now the medical community has begun to introduce the concept of modern medicine. The so-called modern medicine is actually Western medicine in a new skin. It absorbs the essence of traditional Chinese medicine, takes the useful parts and makes it its own.

Once Chinese medicine succeeds in taking over the throne, there will be no such thing as Chinese medicine in the world. Westerners are very good at this.

Dr. Rochester waved calmly and shook hands with the leaders of Jiangcheng Medical University.

If it weren't for the actions of the multinational pharmaceutical giant behind him, it would be impossible for such a small place to invite him to visit. Even if the rich and powerful came with a check to ask him to see a doctor, they would have to wait in line for him to select and see the patient's background and connections, as well as whether the condition was worth treating.

He would not see patients with particularly serious conditions. This was the only way to ensure the highest success rate in diagnosis and treatment and to ensure that his reputation as the number one expert at Mayo Clinic would remain unimpeded.

His time is money. If it weren't for his cooperation in suppressing traditional Chinese medicine, he would not even come here, let alone to Shenzhou.

Soon, a group of Jiangcheng Medical University leaders surrounded Dr. Rochester and entered the gymnasium. Even the president of Jiangcheng Medical University had to condescend to smile and join in the fun.

A large number of students poured into the gymnasium, and the originally sparsely populated stands were filled with people. Before, there were only about a hundred people, but now probably half of the students in the school were there.

The students who came later had no seats and could only stand in the aisle, blocking the aisle completely.

Chen Xiaobao and Tang Yigong sat opposite the podium, looking like students who came to listen to the lecture.

A group of famous Chinese medicine experts looked at each other in bewilderment. It was obvious that someone had set up a trap for them today, but if they left now, they would only be laughed at. They could only bite the bullet and wait and see what these people were trying to do.

The gymnasium was filled with noise. The president of Jiangcheng Medical University came on stage, signaled for everyone to be quiet, spoke a few more words, and then invited Dr. Rochester to the stage.

As soon as Dr. Rochester came on stage, the stadium erupted in thunderous applause. No one may know who is the most powerful doctor in the world, but if we talk about the doctor who makes the most money, Dr. Rochester is definitely among the top.

And making money is obviously what most people value most.

Not to mention, Dr. Rochester is also known as the first person in cutting-edge medicine and is the most respected medical expert in the medical community.

"Dr. Rochester, Dr. Rochester!"

Many medical students shouted enthusiastically.

Dr. Rochester raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

"I came here today to communicate with my colleagues in traditional Chinese medicine. Modern medicine needs both Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. As long as it is beneficial to all mankind, it should be accepted. We should promote the development of modern medicine with an open mind and broad vision!"

"What I can tell you is that modern medicine has made great progress and development in recent years!"

Dr. Rochester showed his broad mind as soon as he opened his mouth, and then began to introduce some advances in cutting-edge medicine in recent years, such as nanorobots, targeted drugs, and research on mitochondria.

Modern medicine currently believes that human lifespan is related to mitochondria. If the secret of mitochondria can be cracked, perhaps humans can exceed their current lifespan.

Many medical students are fascinated by these cutting-edge modern medicines.

In comparison, Chinese medicine seems quite outdated, even superstitious, and has nothing in common with modern medicine.

Dr. Rochester also affirmed some of TCM’s bone-setting and physical therapy techniques, believing that these were lacking in Western medicine. However, when it comes to treating diseases, TCM cannot even explain the principles behind its own cures, so how can it call itself a scientific discipline?

Traditional Chinese medicine must abandon unscientific and superstitious things and introduce Western medical standards in order to have a future.

Dr. Rochester even believes that most things in traditional Chinese medicine are scams, and very few of them are truly useful.

"Times are changing, and some feudal superstitions should be discarded. My opinion is to integrate the few useful things in traditional Chinese medicine into modern medicine and develop along with modern medicine. In the future, there will be no need for traditional Chinese medicine as a discipline, and it can all be called modern medicine!"

"Use what you can use, and discard what you can't use!"

Rochester's true colors were finally revealed in his final speech. His purpose was nothing more than to make the Chinese people completely abandon traditional Chinese medicine, completely abandon the traditional Chinese medicine market, and let modern medicine replace it.

Thanks to the dominant position of the world's pharmaceutical giants in the field of Western medicine, the market share given up by traditional Chinese medicine will be immediately eaten up by them, and China will then completely lose its sovereignty in the medical field.

This is the real purpose of Dr. Rochester's visit.

"Yes, we must embrace modern science!"

"Traditional Chinese medicine is outdated. It's just a scam. What's the difference between them and the Indians in America who used herbs to treat diseases?"

"Good medical skills are those that can cure diseases. Western medicine used to have bloodletting therapy!"

"That makes sense. The Black Death reduced Europe's population by more than one-third. During the same period, it was not as powerful in China!"

"The past was the past, and the present is the present. Western medicine has made great progress in recent years, but traditional Chinese medicine has remained stagnant. What's wrong with discarding outdated things?"

In the gymnasium, countless medical students were discussing heatedly.
