While Baoli was nervously preparing for the ham auction, Sun Xingzheng talked to Lin Miao about letting her serve as the general manager of Xinghe Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Because Lin Miao has seen the market, he is more suitable for high-end medical careers that deal with dignitaries, rich and famous people.
Xinghe Traditional Chinese Medicine Company will acquire a traditional Chinese medicine medical institution in Imperial Capital. We also need to establish a traditional Chinese medicine training institution in the imperial capital.
Xinghe Traditional Chinese Medicine targets high-end customers.
In addition to the hospital, they are also preparing to establish a Xinghetang Chinese medicine pharmaceutical company, which mainly provides Chinese medicinal materials and proprietary Chinese medicine products. Provides medical equipment and tools for traditional Chinese medicine.
The current traditional Chinese medicine industry is in a big dilemma.
It is easy to get started with traditional Chinese medicine, but to be a qualified doctor requires at least decades of experience and understanding of traditional Chinese medicine.
In recent years, in order to crack down on the illegal activities of manufacturing and selling counterfeit drugs and fraudsters pretending to be doctors, large-scale clampdowns and penalties have been carried out on unlicensed medical practice. In one year, 120,000 TCM doctors were punished for practicing medicine without a license. Most of those punished have quit the industry.
A large number of ancestral traditional Chinese medicine and folk traditional Chinese medicine, which exist in various places, especially in rural areas, have withdrawn from the industry because they do not have university diplomas and cannot obtain medical certificates.
Traditional Chinese medicine, as an empirical medicine, has suffered great losses.
As the existing masters age, the departure of these old people has resulted in the loss of many experienced Chinese medicine practitioners in various subjects. However, the level of students graduating from universities of traditional Chinese medicine cannot reach this level. Leading to a gap in talent succession.
If there is insufficient talent, the natural curative effect will not be effective, and doctors rely on curative effect to survive. If there is no curative effect, patients will not buy it. A vicious cycle is formed.
Talents have been greatly reduced, and skills have been lost. Afterwards, there will be greater worries, and the potency of medicinal materials will be insufficient. This one is even more deadly.
Nowadays, most Chinese medicines are cultivated. Chinese medicines grown with pesticides and chemical fertilizers have much worse medicinal properties than wild Chinese medicines, and even the curative effects are not as good as natural ones.
As for natural herbal medicines, with the development of agricultural land and changes in the natural environment, they are becoming increasingly rare and rare.
Often when the growth time is still short, they are picked by herb collectors who are eager to sell them for money, because if you don’t pick them after seeing them, others will not keep them for you. This has also led to increased prices and reduced efficacy of wild drugs.
When the medicine stops working, the natural curative effect will not be as good as before.
In addition to these difficulties, traditional Chinese medicine is still suffering from the crisis of being banned. Western medicine has always disagreed with the theories and pharmacology of traditional Chinese medicine. Because the theory of traditional Chinese medicine is very mysterious, even if it cures your disease, you can’t explain why. There is a saying that goes well: Western medicine allows you to die clearly, while Chinese medicine allows you to live in confusion.
Since modern times, when Western medicine was introduced into China, Chinese medicine has been greatly impacted.
Mr. Lu Xun's generation once denounced Chinese medicine as liars, intentionally or unintentionally.
However, traditional Chinese medicine has survived strongly relying on its curative effect and strong vitality.
The first existential crisis of traditional Chinese medicine occurred in February 1929.
At that time, the Nanjing National Government held the first large-scale Central Health Commission meeting since the establishment of the National Government.
There were more than 120 members of the Health Committee, deans of central-level hospitals, deans and principals of provincial and municipal hospitals and medical schools, and directors of provincial and municipal health bureaus who were invited to attend the meeting. Almost all of them had a background in Western medicine. .
What shocked the whole country was that a very important agenda item at this meeting was to pass a motion to depose traditional Chinese medicine.
Today, when we look at historical data, we can find that this health conference was held with the funding of several large foreign pharmaceutical companies.
It can be seen that this is full of conflicts of interest. The foreign forces behind the chaos are not for the sake of the Chinese people.
There is a lot of shady behind this incident. The survival of China's "national medicine" is being discussed in such a strange atmosphere, and its fate is naturally in jeopardy.
Before the meeting, Wang Jingwei, who later became a great traitor, delivered a long speech, vigorously inciting: "The biggest obstacle to China's health administration is traditional Chinese medicine. If traditional Chinese medicine is not abolished, it cannot be regarded as a revolution. Japan can be strong only because of the Meiji Restoration. The Meiji Restoration could change the outlook of the people by abolishing Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine, so the Health Council must take full responsibility for drafting bills and handing them over to the government for implementation, in order to complete the great cause of the revolution."
In the end, due to the opposition of traditional Chinese medicine doctors and people across the country, it failed. There are also many people in the government who support traditional Chinese medicine.
In the past 100 years, Chinese medicine has faced life-and-death emergencies three times, but in the end it was passed down with difficulty.
After Yang Fan came to Daming, he was pleasantly surprised to find that Chinese herbal medicines are everywhere here, and they are all grown naturally without any chemical fertilizers or pesticides. In later generations, high-priced medicinal materials with high vintages are everywhere. There are huge business opportunities here.
This era is enough to supply the Chinese medicinal materials needed by future generations.
Many rare animal and plant resources are found everywhere in Ming Dynasty. More importantly, in this era, Chinese medicine has not been impacted by later generations, and there are many high-level doctors.
Many special techniques and medical methods are also common. These have been almost lost in later generations.
Yang Fan himself believes in traditional Chinese medicine. Later, several epidemics in China also proved the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine.
Although the theory of traditional Chinese medicine sounds like a myth, it is a good thing if it can cure diseases. If we don’t understand it, we can’t stop eating because of choking.
Now, Ming Dynasty can provide the best animal and plant medicinal materials, and can provide the best and most experienced traditional Chinese medicine doctors, many of which have not been lost skills and prescriptions. If these can be passed on to future generations, Chinese medicine will definitely develop greatly.
Late at night, Yang Fan was still writing furiously, writing a memorial to the emperor.
Because in the original history, the plague would break out in the Ming Dynasty very soon. All ten houses in the north were empty, and all the people in the entire village were dead.
When King Li Chuang entered Beijing, the capital had been turned into a dead city by the plague.
Historical records record that the soldiers collapsed on the city wall and barely stood up after being kicked and beaten by the officers. They collapsed again as soon as the officers left. After King Li Chuang's peasant army entered the imperial capital, military discipline was completely ruined. They all went deep into the people to rob property and women. King Li Chuang was unable to stop it. As a result, a large number of soldiers were infected with plague and smallpox.
Combat effectiveness is severely weakened. Then he was defeated in a piece of stone.
At this time, it was the Little Ice Age, and the climate became unprecedentedly cold.
This resulted in a huge demand for animal furs in wealthy Europe and East Asia at this time.
The price of fur has soared, and it is called soft gold. A large number of hunters flocked to Siberia and Mongolia to hunt and make a fortune from furs.
The Russian Empire gained a lot of wealth from Europe because of the fur trade, and the country became stronger. At the same time, driven by interests, continuous exploration and penetration into Siberia began. These furs also transmitted viruses from wild animals to hunters and brought them back to Europe and the Ming Dynasty.
The European plague, known as the Black Death, cost Europe 100 million people. The Ming Dynasty did not go there either. Smallpox and plague were also brought back to the mainland by Shanxi merchants. Shanxi merchants made a fortune by smuggling outside the customs and importing furs into the interior. But Ming Dynasty suffered.
The areas north of the Huaihe River and south of the Great Wall, especially the Ji Town area in Hebei Province, became the hardest-hit areas. All the people were killed or injured.
Yang Fan could not sit idly by and wrote to the emperor, suggesting that in the name of the imperial court, high-level doctors from all over the country be recruited to the capital.
The National Medical University was established to train Chinese medicine talents and prepare for epidemics. He was willing to bear the entire cost.
Yang Fan's idea was to establish a Chinese Medical University. Gather all the outstanding doctors in the Ming Dynasty, compile classics of traditional Chinese medicine, and set up large hospitals. It can not only prepare for future epidemics, but also feed future generations and continue many lost skills.
Good medicinal materials are available, good prescriptions are available, good doctors are available, and good techniques are available.
If Yang Fan doesn't believe it, later generations of Chinese medicine will not be able to practice it.
Yang Fan decided to let Xinghe Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital start with high-end medical care.
Use the best medicinal materials, the best prescriptions, the best doctors, and the best treatment methods to become famous among the world's richest people, and then promote high-end TCM medical care around the world.
If the top wealthy circles abroad recognize traditional Chinese medicine, it will definitely promote the development of traditional Chinese medicine in China.
