Chapter 360 - The Up-and-comer in Chinese Medicine! (1/2)
Originally, everyone cursed Fang Qiu as much as they could and belittled him, but the situation was completely reversed in an instant as foreign and domestic media reported on him.
The swearers were silent.
At the same time, those who originally believed in the existence of Qi and Fang Qiu and were afraid to speak out for fear of the huge public opinion at first, now finally dared to speak up.
The comments remained angry.
But this anger was different.
This time, it was the people who believed in Qi’s existence questioned those who scolded Fang Qiu and said that Qi belonged to a superstition.
With the confirmation of international journals and famous doctors, how did those who questioned Qi’s existence dare to speak up?
They had been badly slapped in the face. If they went on, they were probably the ones being reviled.
At the same time, some senior doctors were shocked and moved when they learned that Fang Qiu had made foreigners admit the existence of Qi.
These famous traditional Chinese medicine practitioners were different from ordinary people.
They were well aware that the Qi Fang Qiu showed to shock foreigners was no longer simple but directly went to the root of traditional Chinese medicine.
In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, Qi was a very important part.
They were surprised when Fang Qiu was able to confirm its existence.
As long as it was a senior doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, he or she definitely had some understanding of Qi.
Just as Xu Miaolin who practiced Qigong, many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners also practiced Qigong. For one thing, it could strengthen the body, and for another, it could be used to study ancient medical books.
Of course, most of them could practice enough to feel the presence of Qi.
But even if they could feel Qi flowing through their bodies, so what?
They couldn’t take it out, put it in front of the world, and said, “This is Qi.”
As a result, no one had been able to prove the existence of Qi for hundreds of years.
This also led people to think that Qi was false, deceptive, belonged to the feudal superstition, and it was non-existent!
The traditional Chinese medicine practitioners felt bitter!
They were frustrated by the lack of explanation.
In this way, Chinese medicine was wronged for hundreds of years.
Now traditional Chinese medicine practitioners had almost habitually forgotten Qi and agreed with the public that Qi did not exist, was false, and belonged to the feudal superstition.
But then Fang Qiu stepped up!
A freshman actually broke the century-old dilemma for traditional Chinese medicine.
This made all the old doctors and scholars of traditional Chinese medicine and highly-skilled doctors very shocked.
Were they worse than a freshman?
Although it was hard for them to have no bitter feelings in their hearts, they felt more gratification and excitement.
To their excitement, after long misunderstood, traditional Chinese medicine had officially been on the international stage since then and had finally been recognized.
To their relief, there was finally an up-and-comer in traditional Chinese medicine.
This man made all people in the field of traditional Chinese medicine see hope and a better tomorrow!
He was Fang Qiu!
“This Fang Qiu is so good for traditional Chinese medicine.”
“Yeah, first came the argument about the pulse of pregnancy, and now he has proved the existence of Qi. Is he really a student who has only attended the University of Chinese Medicine for half a year?”
“How could a student be so good?”
“I think he must have a very good master, or he couldn’t have been so good after learning traditional Chinese medicine for only half a year!”
“Who is his master?”
At the same time, countless people in the field of traditional Chinese medicine started talking about Fang Qiu.
On the other hand, those who did not believe in or like traditional Chinese medicine began to frantically inquire about the qualifications of ‘Medicine and Humans’.
They wanted to see if the seemingly impressive foreign journal was illegal, which would publish papers as long as the writer paid the journal money.
Most of all, they needed to find out if Fang Qiu was lying!
As for the translation and popularization of ‘Medicine and Humans’ on Weibo, they did not want to believe it!
In their opinion, those translators were all hired by Fang Qiu!
How could there be Qi in the world? How could anyone really believe in the existence of Qi?
No doubt, they were all taken aback by the results they found with all their might.
‘Medicine and Humans’ was not a journal that they could challenge!
Crucially, they also found that Fang Qiu’s paper was the fastest to pass since the day ‘Medicine and Humans’ started publication.
This result was incredible for those who did not believe in or even oppose traditional Chinese medicine.
However, what really surprised them was that before publishing the paper, the foreign journal sent someone to China to find Fang Qiu and participated in the experiment of acupuncture and Qi.
These were six of the world’s leading medical experts who had jointly certified Qi and acupuncture in the paper published on the website.
As soon as the report reached home, it was met with gasps of surprise.
“How could that be?”
“Foreigners came to China to personally verify it?”
“Six world-class medical experts were personally involved. Oh, my god! How was that possible?”
…
Chen Yinsheng, who had been suspended from his job, sat on a balcony in a residential compound in Jiangjing, enjoying the sunshine as he scanned the Internet for comments and reports.
Chen Yinsheng laughed when he saw the reports which had confirmed the existence of Qi.
This time, he got it right.
For him, as long as what he did could help the development of traditional Chinese medicine, as long as it was for the good of traditional Chinese medicine, it didn’t matter even if he was dismissed.
But he was taken aback by the sudden turn of the event.
He didn’t expect Fang Qiu to publish a paper so quickly in such a short week.
Moreover, the paper was adopted by the internationally renowned journal ‘Medicine and Humans’.
In the eyes of any leader and students in the school, this was impossible, let alone him.
Apart from how difficult it was to publish a paper alone in a foreign language journal, the average person couldn’t imagine his or her paper becoming a core paper.
What was the core paper?
It was the main promotion of the current issue of a journal, which meant that the core paper was recognized by the journal and had the highest value.
If the paper had been published in a regular journal, magazine, etc., it might not have sounded so unbelievable.
The incredible thing about Fang Qiu’s paper was that it was published as a core paper on ‘Medicine and Humans’!
