Chapter 328 The Beginning of Chinese Medicine
After talking with Shangguan and his son, Li Wen continued to wander around the streets and alleys of Xiangdao.
After another month of visits, Li Wen also roughly understood the current situation of traditional Chinese medicine in Hong Kong. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a plate of loose sand.
Of course, Li Wen is not poaching people this month. The main purpose is to research and rank Chinese medicine doctors in Xiangdao.
Although Li Wen is a layman, his knowledge is ahead of his time.
In Li Wen's dictionary, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you develop your medical career better.
After a month, Li Wen finally summed up the results of his calculations with two words: regret.
Under the Westernism ruled by ghosts, the development of traditional Chinese medicine is really struggling. It can no longer be described as development, but is struggling to survive.
In addition to a few traditional Chinese medicine clinics located on the main street, selling some Chinese herbal teas and medicinal wine for bruises, many other clinics are huddled in remote alleys or even cage houses.
Moreover, the environment of these traditional Chinese medicine clinics is also dirty and messy. Most of them are mixed with living quarters, and there are no systematic and formal diagnosis and treatment procedures.
In Li Wen's mind, traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down for thousands of years and has not been eliminated. It is a profound science in itself.
Although he is a layman, in his understanding, seeing a doctor is not just about registering and taking your pulse. There is also a series of treatments, medicines, rehabilitation and follow-up behind it.
However, most Chinese medicine practitioners in Hong Kong do not even have the right medicines, their skills are mediocre, and their treatment depends entirely on luck. More and more people regard this medical treatment as a bastard.
It's okay to treat a doctor with a meal, but there's a problem with using the patient's life to make a meal. In Li Wen's view, this is a breach of medical ethics.
Back at Daqin Daily, Li Wen wrote a special article about the development of medical and traditional Chinese medicine in Hong Kong.
Li Wen wanted to use this manuscript to create public opinion and let the people of Hong Kong know about their medical environment, so as to put pressure on the Gui Lao government to establish the Hong Kong Traditional Chinese Medicine Association.
Li Wen also spent a lot of money this time. He published comments in various newspapers and columns of Daqin Newspaper from different angles for a week, and invited some famous Chinese medicine experts to speak out.
This is the newspaper run by Li Wen himself, and he is willing to spend such a large amount of money. If other newspapers were allowed to do this, it would be strange if they didn't make hundreds of thousands this week.
However, Li Wen's huge investment was not without effect.
After speaking out for a week, it finally attracted the attention of the people of Hong Kong, and the streets began to talk about it.
After all, eating grains will cause six kinds of diseases. Who can guarantee that they will not go to the hospital in their lifetime?
The public's discussion is the biggest source of enthusiasm in the media industry. Newspapers, large and small, that had nothing to do with themselves, have begun to use their traffic to invite Chinese medicine practitioners to express their opinions.
Of course, Li Wen was not idle at this time. Through his identity as the boss of Daqin Media, he found some well-known medical figures in Hong Kong, hoping that these people would work together to promote the establishment of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association.
During this period, many people expressed disdain for the traditional Chinese medicine that Li Wen supported, but most of them chose to wait and watch.
However, there are also many Chinese who support the development of traditional Chinese medicine, and they all contributed to it under the premise that Li Wen provided money.
The ghost guy was very greedy, so Li Wen gave Hong Kong Governor Dai Linzi 500,000 Hong Kong dollars to get him to relent and allow the establishment of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association.
Li Wen was not idle during the preparations for the establishment of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. He spent 6 million to buy a four-story building with an area of 20,000 square meters to establish the No. 1 Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Hong Kong.
Of course, the money to buy a house should be purchased first and then mortgaged, otherwise Li Wen's more than 10 million yuan would not be able to withstand the loan.
In addition to the RMB 6 million hospital, Li Wen also spent RMB 3 million to build a training school in the New Territories. Don't ask why you set up a school in the New Territories. Don't you feel guilty?
In fact, the main reason is that land in the New Territories is cheap. Li Wen, who is tight on money, adheres to the principle of saving money when he can, and tries his best to use money wisely.
The school was built first, and the support Li Wen applied for from Daxia also arrived one after another. The country was as generous as ever. Li Wen only asked for 100 people, and the leaders directly allocated 200 people.
Of course, these two hundred people received temporary residence permits, which were rotated every two years until Xiang Island had its own hematopoietic ability.
Li Wen also understands the country's intentions. Because Li Wen spent money, these traditional Chinese medicine doctors came to Xiang Island not only to support the medical treatment of Xiang Island, but also systematically improved their own medical standards in two years. Returning there will also be conducive to national construction.
.
Of course, there is another reason. These doctors Li Wen are issued Hong Kong dollars directly to the country, which can bring a lot of foreign exchange to the country.
These people were all hired by Li Wen with high salaries. Depending on their medical skills, Li Wen paid each of them 300 to 1,000 Hong Kong dollars.
The annual salary of these 200 people would cost Li Wen nearly 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars, which is a lot of foreign exchange.
Of course, the money is given directly to the state and has nothing to do with these doctors.
They are all seconded by the state, and their wages are paid directly to their homes by the state.
Although the country earned Li Wen's foreign exchange, it did not take advantage of Li Wen.
The lives of these 200 people are fully covered by the state, and Ng Feng Hong provides these people with a certain proportion of meat and egg nutritional supplies every month.
Li Wen is not someone who cares about these things. In the final analysis, he still makes money. The people supported by the state are all masters of traditional Chinese medicine, including several great Chinese doctors, all of whom are national treasure-level talents.
The first thing these people did when they came to Hong Kong was to compile a Chinese medicine practice manual, and then under Li Wen's suggestion, they also compiled the advantages of Western medicine's surgical equipment.
In addition to compiling a traditional Chinese medicine practice manual, Li Wen also takes these masters of traditional Chinese medicine to conduct free clinics in civilian areas every weekend.
In order to quickly change the impression of traditional Chinese medicine, Li Wen continued to import traditional Chinese medicine from China, and then let these traditional Chinese medicine doctors distribute it free of charge and teach these people how to use traditional Chinese medicine.
At the same time as the free clinic, Li Wen also asked Daqin Daily to follow the entire process, and occasionally published some sympathetic cases to win social sympathy.
However, the progress of traditional Chinese medicine does not happen overnight. This is the development and progress of an industry and cannot be rushed.
In addition to the medical manuals being carried out under the intensive supervision of these powerful doctors, Li Wen specially asked these Chinese doctors to come up with several Chinese medicine prescriptions for daily treatment of fever.
This thing couldn't be simpler. Many Chinese hair-scalding techniques have prescriptions. Under the guidance of these experts, the prescriptions that are commonly used in China have been developed.
Li Wen also conducted transactions based on the Chinese patent medicines that were often taken by later generations, including isatis root magic medicine, Yinqiao Jiedu granules, Xiaobupleurum granules...
After Li Wen received these prescriptions, he immediately asked the Xiaoriguo Company, which was quite powerful in machinery, to help develop traditional Chinese medicine machines.
The manufacturing of traditional Chinese medicine involves boiling, canning, and making pills and granules of liquid, which is much simpler than chemical utensils for Western medicine.
This busy work came directly to the end of the year. After half a year of busy work, Daqin Medical was finally on the right track, and the establishment of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association also passed the review.
