One stone can cause a thousand ripples!
Both the explosive wording and the million-dollar reward have plunged the Internet into an uproar, pushing the debate over whether traditional Chinese medicine is pseudoscience to the forefront.
The "Western Medicine Superman" is actually named Yu Rou. Although his name sounds gentle and weak, he is actually a real man. It is said that he works in the burn department of a hospital in Beijing and is a fairly well-known surgeon.
This person can be said to be an out-and-out hater of traditional Chinese medicine. Most of his fame on Weibo was gained by denouncing traditional Chinese medicine as pseudoscience.
Every piece of content posted online is against traditional Chinese medicine.
Even when Tu Cangcang won the Nobel Prize in Medicine, he questioned it, saying that Tu Cangcang won the award not because of Chinese medicine, but because he used Western medicine's technical means to extract Artemisia annua to produce a drug that can cure malaria.
This man had excellent eloquence and literary talent. Although some Chinese medicine practitioners had refuted his opinions before, he had defeated them all with his writing skills.
But no one expected that he would publicly post such a challenge on the Internet!
However, his purpose was very clear. He obviously intended to use the failure of the Compound Blood Ginseng Drops to apply for FDA certification to fan the flames, suppress traditional Chinese medicine, and increase his own popularity.
For a time, public opinion was flying all over the Internet, and many TV stations also invited popular commentators to comment on the matter.
"Backwardness is backwardness, and it can never defeat advancement. Traditional Chinese medicine can be said to be a medical skill that is about to be eliminated. There is no way to compare it with advanced Western medicine. When Chinese medicine takes the pulse, it is good if it can have an 80% accuracy rate; but the accuracy rate of Western medicine's hcg test can reach 99%. In this comparison, it is obvious which one is better."
"So I think that Chinese medicine will lose this challenge!"
If the words of "Western Medicine Superman" Yu Rou only added fuel to the fire on the Internet, then the words of this commentator were like pouring a bucket of oil on the fire, making it burn even more fiercely.
In just a short period of time, the whole society, whether they studied medicine or not, was discussing the online event of "whether Chinese medicine is pseudoscience" and "whether Chinese medicine should be eliminated".
Both sides held their own opinions and the argument was fierce.
The most powerful rebuttal from those who criticize traditional Chinese medicine is that if traditional Chinese medicine is really that powerful, why has no one come forward to challenge it yet!
If you don't fight back, that means you are afraid and you are cowardly!
This statement is irrefutable.
After "Western Medicine Superman" Yu Rou issued the challenge, indeed no Chinese medicine practitioner has stepped forward to accept the challenge.
…
The flames of the online war soon spread offline, and Tongren Medical University was also in an uproar.
"Is Yu Rou an idiot? If Chinese traditional medicine is pseudoscience, how did all those sick people survive in China for five thousand years?"
"Could it be that our Chinese medicine practitioners cured it by mistake and out of ignorance?"
"The best way is to accept the challenge and use ironclad facts to let him know how powerful Chinese medicine is!"
With the release of this news, the tone of the forum changed. People no longer discussed whether they should hit Yu Rou with a brick in the dark or throw paint on his head, but instead discussed who the traditional Chinese medicine side should send to join the battle.
Some people say that Principal Tu Cangcang should take action, after all, she is the leader of traditional Chinese medicine today.
But some people also said that there is no point in using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. It would be too much of an honor for Yu Rou if Principal Tu stepped in. It would just be better to let the teachers in the school take action. They can then promote the reputation of Tongren Medical University.
But some people also said that even if the teachers of the school stepped in, it would be too much of a face-saving for Yu Rou, and that the school’s disciples should be allowed to step in, such as Nie Yuan who once studied at Tongren Medical University.
It just so happens that Nie Yuan can also use this opportunity to wash away the humiliation of the failure of the Compound Blood Ginseng Drops to apply for FDA certification.
The fourth statement, which is also the least popular one, is that Ye Feng, who indirectly triggered this debate, participated in the battle.
After all, if the live broadcast of the fight between Ye Feng and Wang Tianhong had not been posted online, how would Yu Rou have gotten the opportunity to criticize traditional Chinese medicine.
Although many students tagged the teachers at school online, the content seemed to have fallen on deaf ears.
The teachers didn't react at all to their messages, and each of them acted as if they didn't see anything.
It’s not that they don’t dare to accept the challenge, but this matter is too difficult to handle.
The pulse of joy is a kind of pulse that is quite difficult to judge. Young and middle-aged people with abundant blood and qi will also have this pulse.
If you participate in the challenge and win, you will naturally gain both fame and fortune.
But if we lose, not only will we be disgraced across the country, but we will also have to bear the blame for destroying the reputation of traditional Chinese medicine.
They have lived to this age and have achieved fame and status, so they really don't dare to gamble.
Even if someone thinks they will not lose, what if they lose
When it comes to things in this world, we should never be afraid of a thousand things, but just be prepared for the worst.
"Boss, accept the challenge. Yu Rou is such a bully..."
At the same time, after Ye Feng defeated Wang Tianhong and went to hand over the Wang family's property with Jiang Yixue, when they returned to the dormitory, Ji Jixiao and Su Le looked at Ye Feng excitedly and kept teasing him.
Do you want to accept the challenge
Listening to Ji Jixiao's words, Ye Feng's brows were twisted into a knot.
He was also extremely indignant at Rou's words, and after all, this matter was caused by him.
But he knew even more that people like Yu Rou were just trying to stir up trouble. The more you paid attention to him, the more excited he would be, and you would fall into his trap.
"Yu Rou posted on Weibo again..."
At this moment, Jingtian stood up with his phone in hand, walked to Ye Feng, hesitated for a moment and said, "Boss, he has declared war on you by name!"
When he was called "boss", Ji Jixiao and Su Le were stunned, then they smiled and hugged Jingtian's shoulders.
From this moment on, the entire dormitory was really tied together!
"This is what you call a five-thousand-year-old medical skill, and no one dares to fight it. Ye Feng in the video of treating people, aren't you quite capable? You even told me the time of your pregnancy. Why are you silent now? Did I expose your trick and make you scared?"
"Let me put it bluntly, your Chinese medicine is pseudoscience, it's witch doctor!"
As his eyes swept across the phone, Ye Feng's eyes suddenly became murderous.
"Send a message for me."
Then, he handed the phone to Jingtian and said in a deep voice: "Tell him that I accept his challenge in the name of Chinese medicine!"
