Siheyuan: The prosperous era starting from being a doctor

Chapter 421: Cooperation is mutually beneficial and the th anniversary gift

Cooperate with Western medicine community.

Moreover, it was Wang Mengde, the "pillar" of traditional Chinese medicine, who provided research ideas and directions for Western medicine.

This caused many leaders of the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine to express opposition at the meeting.

None of them have forgotten.

In the decades before liberation, the leaders of Western medicine, together with some people with special purposes, attacked traditional Chinese medicine.

It can be said that both sides wished the other side would die.

At that time, the development of Western medicine in China had just begun and was simply unable to shoulder the burden of national medical care.

After liberation.

In the first few years, there was still a force that fanned the flames and tried to suppress traditional Chinese medicine.

Later, after experiencing several major events, traditional Chinese medicine stabilized.

If it weren’t for the protection from above, the situation of traditional Chinese medicine would be very dire. Even if it wouldn’t be uprooted, it would definitely be suppressed.

Not only will it fail to develop, it will also regress a lot.

Therefore, a few people were very determined and were unwilling to let Wang Mengde go over to help.

They have good reasons too.

Western medicine is now developing very rapidly.

Especially in the training of talents, the advantages of low cost, large volume and easy entry have led to an increasing number of people practicing Western medicine.

This is precisely the shortcoming of traditional Chinese medicine.

It is also far ahead in terms of the convenience and speed of treating diseases.

To be honest, if Wang Mengde hadn’t emerged and led the research of traditional Chinese medicine, many achievements would have been made.

In particular, with the establishment of the Traditional Chinese Medicine 'Trust', a large number of Chinese patent medicines have been successfully developed.

Perhaps, Western medicine has developed to the same level as traditional Chinese medicine at this time.

What the other side lacks is a person like Wang Mengde.

Once the Western medicine team has Wang Mengde's help, the momentum of development will be even more rapid.

It will be difficult to suppress it in the future.

Dean Lu is naturally very clear about this issue.

However, he had absolute confidence in Wang Mengde and knew that Western medicine would develop rapidly because of this incident, but it would not happen overnight to surpass traditional Chinese medicine.

After all, the young man sitting not far from him had terrifying medical skills.

This was an achievement he achieved when he was in his thirties.

With continued accumulation and great success, he could not even imagine the heights that could be reached in the future.

As long as he is here, the status of traditional Chinese medicine in China will be unshakable.

According to Wang Mengde's age, this time is at least fifty years.

As for what happens fifty years later, that is none of their concern.

and.

In recent years, because of the large amount of foreign exchange income earned from medicine exports, the country’s support for traditional Chinese medicine has been increasing.

With the proliferation of "barefoot doctors", each of them can be said to have a copy of the "Barefoot Doctor Manual", and more and more Chinese medicine talents will continue to emerge.

At the same time, the construction of Chinese medicine schools has never stopped.

The talent training system has been built very completely and is no longer based on the previous master-apprentice inheritance model.

Every year, outstanding students graduating from these colleges are assigned to various hospitals.

This number may have been only a few thousand at the beginning.

There will be more and more of them in the future, until there are tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people every year.

If we just wait another 20 or 30 years, this large group of talents will grow up, and the energy they unleash at that time will absolutely shock everyone.

of course.

There is another reason that President Lu did not directly state at the meeting.

That is the country’s attitude towards traditional Chinese medicine.

From the current perspective, the performance over the past decade or so has made the leaders completely believe in traditional Chinese medicine.

Most of the people in the health care team are famous Chinese medicine experts.

Not to mention daily health care, when I feel unwell, the first people I think of are these people.

Especially Wang Mengde's acupuncture and massage techniques, some people even began to "mythologize" and "believe in" them.

If he could agree to cooperate with Western medicine.

The higher-ups are also happy to see this situation, and will provide more support for the development of traditional Chinese medicine at that time.

After all, the top leaders are also clear that the simultaneous development of Chinese and Western medicine is most beneficial to the country.

The situation is not like it was decades ago.

Nor will we allow a monopoly to emerge.

Therefore, cooperation between Chinese and Western medicine is a win-win situation.

at the meeting.

President Lu and a dozen other leaders continued to explain the pros and cons.

Although the leaders who disagreed were not completely convinced in the end, they all said that they could give it a try first.

The early stage cooperation should not be too deep, and you must be prepared to terminate the cooperation and withdraw at any time.

I see that opinions have finally been reached.

Dean Lu also breathed a sigh of relief.

This meeting was one of the few that seemed difficult for him to attend in all these years.

Fortunately the outcome was good.

The next step is to wait for the Western medicine team to come to you, and then pretend to be very reluctant.

After asking for certain benefits from Chinese medicine, he would pretend to agree reluctantly.

By the way, you can also gain favor with your superiors.

This matter will be handled by President Lu and others. Wang Mengde's task is to wait until the deal is reached, and then he will go to the unit of Mr. Fan and others to provide guidance.

This matter did not put any pressure on him at all.

Through space, he learned about tens of thousands of drug ingredients.

Just reveal a few of them, and that will be enough for those units to study.

No matter whether it has been developed or not, it is entirely up to him which one he wants to take out.

Nanluoguxiang.

Today, Wang Mengde rarely worked overtime too late.

It was just past half past seven when he returned to the courtyard.

Because the weather is cold and it snowed a few days ago, every household is staying at home and not going out.

Because I had already eaten in the company cafeteria.

So, after Wang Mengde got home and put down his bag, he took some gifts and went out again, heading towards Sha Zhu's house.

"Silly Zhu, are you home?"

He knocked on the door and shouted loudly.

"Meng De, I'm at home, just push the door and come in."

In the main living room, Sha Zhu answered.

When I entered the door, I saw Sha Zhu sitting on a bench, holding a pair of chopsticks in his hand, turning over the sweet potatoes.

Beside them, "Little Fool" He Yu leaned on Yu Li, staring at the stove.

"Meng De, you are so polite to come here and bring so many things with you. Come and sit down. I will pour you a cup of tea to warm you up."

Yu Li quickly stood up and poured him a cup of hot tea.

Wang Mengde was not polite either. He sat down opposite Sha Zhu, holding an enamel pot in his hand, and said with a smile:

"Haha, nothing else, just some canned fruits, candies, and cakes for He Yu and the others to try."

As he said that, he put the things in his hand on the table.

He brought two canned foods, one of yellow peach and one of hawthorn.

There was also half a pound of White Rabbit candy and about a pound of biscuits. These things, in the eyes of others, were very rare and good things, and were difficult to buy.

But the cupboards in his house are almost full.

This was still under his control. On several occasions, the supplies distributed by the unit were not sent home, but directly to his father-in-law's home in Caochang Hutong and his grandparents in Tiangezhuang.

Otherwise, given that his benefits are several times more than those of other employees, if he took them all back, his house would probably be full of space.

After a few polite words, Wang Mengde directly stated his purpose:

"Shazhu, my son will be one month old in a few days. I'd like you to help me fry some food. There will be two tables of banquet on that day. Do you have time?"

There is a custom in many places in China.

That is when the baby is one month old, a full moon banquet will be held.

However, since the implementation of food rationing, the number of such banquets has decreased a lot.

Most families cannot afford to entertain guests.

In some places, a new custom has emerged, that is, when the host holds a banquet, the people who attend, in addition to giving gifts as a share, also give two or three taels of food coupons.

In addition to entertaining with fine wine and delicious food, the host also provided

For a full-moon banquet like this, we also have to fry some Sanzi, boil some red eggs and use brown sugar water to entertain the guests.

"No problem. The weather is cold recently and it's not the New Year yet, so there aren't many wedding banquets outside. I have plenty of time."

Sha Zhu put down his chopsticks, smiled and agreed.

Not to mention being free, even if he wasn't free, he would put aside other things to help Wang Mengde.

"Okay, I'll prepare all the necessary supplies in advance, and then I'll ask you to help me."

Wang Mengde said happily.

Sha Zhu is a person with many shortcomings, but his strengths are also obvious.

One of them is that once something is promised, we will basically try our best to do it well.

So this matter is almost certain.

With Sha Zhu's help, Ran Xiaomei and others will feel a lot more relaxed.

Moreover, his cooking skills are unmatched by ordinary people. The same food cooked by others is not as delicious as that cooked by Sha Zhu.

“No problem, if it’s a weekday, I’ll take a day off.

I am now working in the canteen of the steel mill, doing only the work of the small kitchen. Even if there is a small kitchen task, as long as you mention your name to Li Huaide, he will quickly let you go. "

Sha Zhu said with great confidence:
"I promise to make it beautiful for you and make you look good."

"That's great. I feel relieved when you say that."

Wang Mengde also praised the other party.

After the two chatted for a while, Sha Zhu couldn't keep his thoughts to himself anymore, so he asked curiously:

"Meng De, your family has plenty of supplies, and you have so many friends, why are you only hosting two tables for the full moon banquet?

If you ask me, you can just host ten or eight tables, and I can arrange the banquet for you neatly. I have several apprentices in the steel mill, and I can also invite the chefs to help."

in his thoughts.

If I were as efficient as Wang Mengde, I would be able to bring so many supplies home.

With so many friends, if there is any happy event at home, we will definitely set up a few more tables to make it lively and lively.

"Haha, two tables are enough, just my father-in-law's family, plus a few relatives and friends from Tiangezhuang, plus my own family, it's almost enough if we squeeze in.

As for why not most of them, it’s mainly because they can’t be too conspicuous. You also know what’s going on recently.”

Wang Mengde explained a few words in a low voice.

If he had encountered such a happy event ten years ago, or ten years later, he would have made a grand celebration of it.

But in this situation, it is better to keep a low profile.

There were already many people who were concerned about him, and it was only because of the protection of the people above that he was safe and sound.

Otherwise, if I show off again, it would be a suicidal act.

After talking to Sha Zhu, Wang Mengde returned home.

The charcoal fire in the flowerpot stove was burning brightly.

Because she had a newborn baby and there was enough honeycomb coal at home, Ran Xiaomei was willing to spend the money.

The fire was burning brightly at night, and I would get up in the middle of the night to change a new one.

It costs at least seven or eight yuan a day to cook and heat.

If an ordinary family burned firewood like this for a whole winter, they would not survive until spring.

After all, supplies were in short supply and coal briquettes were rationed. If a housewife didn't use them sparingly, she would have to pay more.

If there is a shortage of honeycomb coal, even rice cannot be cooked in the last few days of every month.

"Did the fool agree?"

Ran Xiaomei was folding clothes and diapers for her grandson in the living room. When she saw her eldest son come in, she asked casually.

"Well, I agree. You can just go find him when the time comes.

I guess he can't handle it alone, so he needs to find two apprentices to help. Let's prepare more things."

Wang Mengde replied.

Two tables of banquets were a piece of cake for Sha Zhu.

If the weather is good, he can easily accomplish it by himself with the help of Ran Xiaomei and Zhou Xiaoyan.

But now it's freezing cold, so it's not very convenient.

It would be safer to call two more people.

"Okay, I understand. I will prepare some cigarettes and alcohol in advance, as well as two dollars per person. Give these to Sha Zhu and ask him to distribute them to his disciples."

Ran Xiaomei nodded.

a few days later.

Mr. Fan and several others came to the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine as a group three days ago.

At that time, Wang Mengde also accompanied President Lu and others to receive the guests.

of course.

When the matter was being discussed, he did not participate because he was busy with work and wanted to avoid suspicion.

I was just there for lunch.

In the past two years, Mr. Fan and others have basically not come to the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

I have only heard of the food here, but now I finally see its true appearance.

The sumptuous meal and the abundant oil and water made them all envious.

After a whole day of negotiation, the two sides finally reached an agreement.

The core is that Wang Mengde helped Western medicine develop several drugs within a year.

As expected, the superiors agreed and even praised the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

"Comrade Wang Mengde, let me introduce you to Professor Wang, who specializes in microbiology.

As early as the 1930s and 1940s, he went to graduate school at Rutgers University in New Jersey, where he received a Ph.D. in microbiology and a SIGMX Gold Key.

In 55, the first antibiotic drug was invented for the country, filling the gap in this field in the country.

He was working at a microbiology research institute in Fuzhou before. When we heard that you needed talents in this field, we invited Professor Wang to come to Beijing to work overnight. "

In the Beijing Institute of Microbiology, Mr. Fan took Wang Mengde's arm and introduced the old man in front of him.

"Hello, Professor Wang. Let's work together in the future. Please give me your guidance."

Wang Mengde was very familiar with Professor Wang's name and knew his contributions.

He quickly stepped forward and shook hands with the other person.

"Haha, I don't deserve your advice, let's learn from each other.

I have heard Dean Wang’s name so many times over the years that my ears are already callused.”

Professor Wang also followed suit politely.

He understood his mission to work in the capital from Fujian Province.

It was under the guidance of Wang Mengde that a world-leading drug was developed as soon as possible.

It would be best if it could be developed within a few months.

Just the right gift for the 20th anniversary!
