What's going on here?
The vice president of the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine actually called him "Little Su"? And in such a familiar way?
What kind of relationship is this?!
Hao Wanshan's mouth gaped open, and he was slightly taken aback. He suddenly wondered if he had been too cold to Su Zhengnan just now.
What if the other party speaks ill of me to Elder Mo later?
Su Zhengnan had no idea that in the blink of an eye, Hao Wanshan had already made eight hundred plans. He simply smiled, stood up, and said to him, "This is my senior brother!"
"What? Master Mo is your senior brother?"
Hao Wanshan was even more shocked, because everyone knew that Mo Chaoyang's teacher was Master Gu, and Master Gu, as one of the most famous masters of traditional Chinese medicine, naturally had a status that no one else could match.
If Master Mo is his senior brother, wouldn't that mean he is also Master Gu's disciple?
Hao Wanshan was slightly taken aback. This shock was even more surprising than when Mo Chaoyang greeted Su Zhengnan earlier!
Faced with his senior brother's greeting, Su Zhengnan naturally couldn't pretend not to hear, so he stood up and responded:
"Isn't this a bit inappropriate, senior? It's not right for someone like me with no achievements to sit in the front row."
Mo Chaoyang rolled his eyes at him and said, "What's appropriate or inappropriate about it? Just the fact that you are the teacher's last disciple is enough for you to sit in the front. Hurry up, don't make me say it a second time."
With a whoosh!
In an instant, everyone in the conference room turned to look at Su Zhengnan.
If everyone was merely surprised when Mo Chaoyang greeted them before, their expressions now can only be described as shock!
Several people were initially wondering if Mo Chaoyang, the vice president of the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, had pulled strings for this young man, or if he had some special background. But when they heard that Su Zhengnan was Elder Gu's last disciple, they all stared at each other in shock.
Su Zhengnan is indeed Master Gu's last disciple.
In fact, only a few masters of traditional Chinese medicine who had a good relationship with Master Gu knew that Su Zhengnan had become his disciple. Most outsiders did not know that Master Gu had accepted Su Zhengnan as his last disciple.
After all, Su Zhengnan hadn't even graduated from his master's school yet!
If it weren't for Mo Chaoyang shouting that...
It's estimated that the group of TCM experts and professors present didn't even know that Master Gu had such a close disciple, let alone know who Su Zhengnan was.
"What? He's actually Elder Gu's last disciple? That can't be!"
"He looks way too young!"
"Would Master Gu accept such a young man as his last disciple? How come we hadn't heard anything about it before?"
"This shouldn't be false, right? After all, Old Mo said so, and didn't you hear how affectionately Old Mo addressed him?"
"Yes, it doesn't seem fake. When he called Elder Mo 'Senior Brother,' Elder Mo didn't object!"
"I'm so envious. To be able to become Master Gu's disciple at such a young age, and even his last disciple, means he can practically do whatever he wants in the world of traditional Chinese medicine!"
"......."
After a moment of silence, the crowd began to whisper among themselves.
Su Zhengnan ignored the discussions of the crowd, blinked his eyes, walked straight to the first row, glanced around, and sat down in an empty seat.
There was no way he could disobey his senior brother!
Besides, what my second senior brother said makes a lot of sense, doesn't it?
Although he himself didn't have anything particularly impressive to offer, his title as a teacher alone was enough for him to sit in the first three rows at such an academic conference.
After watching Su Zhengnan sit down in the first row, Mo Chaoyang smiled and nodded, then turned to introduce his junior brother to the people around him.
The people who followed Mo Chaoyang in were all visiting professors from the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Although their fame and medical skills were not as good as those of Elder Gu, they were not much worse than those of Mo Chaoyang.
Upon hearing Mo Chaoyang's introduction, the group smiled and nodded at Su Zhengnan below the stage, as if to greet him.
As for getting to know each other, that will naturally have to wait until after the academic exchange meeting.
"Alright, everyone, quiet down!"
Mo Chaoyang glanced at the people still whispering in the conference room, smiled, waved to them, and said, "Today's exchange meeting will mainly discuss the 'Establishment and Practice of Formula Combination and Compatibility Methods.' I believe everyone is familiar with traditional Chinese medicine formulas and compatibility, so let's discuss this topic!"
At this point, Mo Chaoyang paused for a moment, then looked at an elderly man sitting next to him and said:
"Let's start by having our Elder Yan begin by talking about the compatibility of Chinese medicine ingredients. I think I don't need to introduce Elder Yan's identity, right?"
As soon as Mo Chaoyang finished speaking, the academic exchange meeting officially began.
The "Master Yan" he mentioned is named Yan Zhengyi. He is a renowned Chinese medicine expert and pharmacologist, as well as one of the national masters of traditional Chinese medicine who graduated from the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Although Yan Zhengyi's fame cannot compare to that of veteran masters of traditional Chinese medicine like Gu Lao.
However, among the group of traditional Chinese medicine doctors present, he should be considered the most prestigious, even slightly more so than Mo Chaoyang.
The reason Mo Chaoyang was able to sit in the center to host this academic exchange meeting was simply because he was the vice president of the Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Uh, no!
To be precise, he is already the acting dean!
After a while, it's estimated that the title of 'Deputy' on Mo Chaoyang will be removed.
Upon hearing that Elder Yan would begin, everyone present fell silent, as if afraid of disturbing his speech.
Yan Zhengyi smiled and glanced at everyone, then nodded and said, "Actually, the principles of compatibility in traditional Chinese medicine are all the same. Based on the theory of syndrome differentiation, we use the properties of the herbs and their seven emotions as compatibility principles, and we compatibility is based on the medicinal properties, efficacy, and scope of application of the herbs."
"The 'eighteen incompatibilities' and 'nineteen taboos' in the use of medicine must be kept in mind: mutual reinforcement, mutual assistance, mutual fear, mutual killing, mutual aversion, and mutual opposition."
"In our understanding of the seven emotions and their compatibility, in clinical medication, besides using single drugs, the most common compatibility methods are mutual reinforcement, mutual assistance, mutual restraint, and mutual antagonism, while mutual incompatibility and antagonism are contraindications..."
Yan Zhengyi truly deserves his title as a master of traditional Chinese medicine. His explanation of Chinese herbal medicine compatibility progressed from simple to complex, and the audience listened with frequent nods of approval.
Even though Su Zhengnan's knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine far surpassed that of his opponent, he still felt he had gained something from hearing some of the more insightful points.
Of course, there were some gains, just not many.
After all, given Su Zhengnan's current experience in traditional Chinese medicine, very few people could probably surpass him.
