Chapter 397: IQ Tax
Zhang Ruiming glanced back at her, knowing that she had misunderstood what she meant, and quickly explained, "I didn't make it clear just now, I'm not saying that there is a problem with our country's 5,000-year-old culture, I'm just saying that there is a lot of dross in it after all, such as these traditional Chinese medicine, I'll be honest, I never believe in this, think about it, medicine is a discipline related to the survival of human beings, and modern medicine in the world is almost all theory, experiment, Verification and other scientific research methods of theoretical science, the introduction of a simple drug all takes several years to more than ten years of verification process, this is a real verification science, and what is our traditional Chinese medicine? Now we are still talking about "looking, hearing, asking, seeing"? We are still treating diseases with this "empirical" method, so how can we cure them well? Just take a simple example, from ancient times to the present, all the large-scale plagues in our country have not been solved by traditional Chinese medicine, and you can go and look through ancient books. It can be seen that in the more than 2,000 years since the emergence of traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine has never really solved any plague, and now there are more than 2,000 malaria prescriptions, none of which are effective. Isn't this a resounding slap in the face? And those ancient kings, logically speaking, they should be the group of people who enjoy the most abundant resources of Chinese medicine, but what is their average life expectancy? 476 years old, which is similar to that of a slave society, it can be seen that the role of Chinese medicine is very small, and so on can be listed forever, as long as it is in the face of diseases whose mechanisms have been clarified by modern medicine, there is no market for Chinese medicine. Not to mention the efficacy, Chinese medicine cannot even do the most basic accurate diagnosis and treatment. Let me ask, if our current Chinese medicine is completely based on hope, smell, and inquire, how many diseases can be accurately diagnosed? What kind of growth hormone deficiency can be seen? Can appendicitis and tumors be seen? Can hepatitis B, HIV, chronic myeloid leukemia be seen?"
"So why Chinese medicine can only play with these voids is because they can't distinguish diseases, so they pay attention to distinguishing symptoms and treating them...... And they can, of course, only distinguish between symptoms. However, in the absence of medical theories at that time, even if the symptoms were divided in detail, even if you subdivided the pulse beat into dozens of dimensions such as rapid, severe, and free, the final cause was not a doctor's goatee, pretending to be a ghost, and then talking about "spleen and lung disharmony", "heart fire and heart heat", "occasional wind and cold", yang deficiency, yin deficiency, dampness, vitality, and fire...... Wait for the fortune-telling to be almost the same, and this is completely different from the real cause behind it, the real tumors, ulcers, vitamin deficiencies, blood group genes and other real causes verified by modern medicine, Chinese medicine can feel the pulse!?"
“…… As soon as it comes to specific diseases, we immediately pull out some ethereal things to argue, such as "the envoys of the monarch and the ministers," "the taste of sex is returned to the scriptures," "the warmth and coldness," and "a relative I know says that this place is particularly spiritual." Therefore, in foreign countries, there is no market for traditional Chinese medicine at all, and even in Japan, which highly respects Chinese culture, traditional Chinese medicine has long been reduced to the point that it has been placed in the corner of culture together with the old divination techniques such as "yin and yang gossip" and "fortune-telling and bone-touching", and has no practical value in the current society. ”
After Zhang Ruiming took a breath, he continued, "Now there are still people on the Internet who still have a challenge, as long as the Chinese medicine pregnancy test is successful, they will immediately send a sports car and 500,000 cash, so many years, I haven't seen any Chinese medicine master to get it." ”
Ye Wen saw that Zhang Ruiming's words were obviously angry, which made her feel strange for a while, and she didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere all of a sudden, but after the prosecutor first gave a hard example of Chinese medicine, she blinked her eyes and asked half-jokingly, "What's the matter, have you been deceived by Chinese medicine before?" Or did Chinese medicine rob you of your business?
Zhang Ruiming smiled bitterly, the voice of the beauty next to him made him sober up, and he said a little embarrassed, "It's not hatred, I haven't had any holidays with Chinese medicine, it's just that I've done a lot of public interest lawsuits over the years, and I'm particularly disgusted with this kind of IQ tax, and when I hear it, I can't wait to get rid of it, occupational disease, occupational disease, ......."
He smiled on his face, but in fact, he was quite emotional in his heart, and why he was so hostile to traditional Chinese medicine, in fact, the important thing that Zhang Ruiming did not say was his sympathy for Xiao Zhouyang, and he had seen too many things in the name of traditional Chinese medicine in the process of Quanjian's secret visit and investigation. How can he still have a good impression of Chinese medicine. Finally, in the process of handling this case, a wave of knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine was made up, which became more and more firm in the idea that "traditional Chinese medicine is a big deception".
Ye Wen saw that he came back to his senses, and his emotions calmed down a little, so he asked his question in a low voice, "Ruiming, I always feel that what you just said is a bit biased, if it is really like what you said, "There are more than 2,000 malaria prescriptions in China, and none of them are effective." Not long ago, I saw a report made by a colleague, that is, a medical scientist named Tu Ming, through ancient Chinese prescriptions, found artemisinin, which has a special effect on malaria, and won the Nobel Prize! Isn't this a complete counterexample? There are such examples, how can you say that Chinese medicine is fake? You...... Don't you know about this? That's understandable, after all, it has nothing to do with your work......
Ye Wen gave such an example, in her opinion, it was a direct slap in the face of Zhang Ruiming, she was also worried that the lethality of this example was too strong, it would hurt his face, and it was such an ethereal and meaningless topic for the two of them, she even regretted citing this example, but what she didn't expect was that Zhang Ruiming just smiled, and there was no reaction to being slapped in the face at all.
"Do you think that "I said that Chinese medicine is fake, but Tu Xihe won the Nobel Prize through Chinese medicine, then it proves that Chinese medicine is true"? I can tell you clearly that this logic is wrong, and moreover, Tu Ming's incident shows the hypocrisy of Chinese medicine, and at the same time, it also nails the coffin board for the future of Chinese medicine. ”
"How is that possible?"
Zhang Ruiming looked at the green mountains and fog in the distance, and in the rare moment of rest, his expression was quite relaxed, "That's the case, I'm not anyway."
Those who study medicine have only had a little bit of understanding, and I won't say much about the specifics, so I will briefly explain that I will first introduce a concept - "waste medicine and medicine", these four words actually refer to the abolition of those non-scientific theoretical systems in traditional Chinese medicine, using modern medical methods to test the effectiveness and safety of traditional Chinese medicine and other traditional Chinese medicine methods, and some reasonable components of traditional Chinese medicine will be integrated into modern medicine and become a part of modern medicine, and the contribution of traditional Chinese medicine will be recognized and preserved, which is the only right way for traditional Chinese medicine.
Tu Youyou's success is the best proof and the heaviest slap in the face of traditional Chinese medicine.
In this Nobel Prize incident, Tu Youyou actually did not find artemisinin from traditional Chinese medicine, or rather, Tu Youyou actually came across the term Artemisia annua from a Taoist classic by mistake, and thus won the lottery and generally associated artemisinin, and this is simply the greatest miracle of Chinese medicine in the past two thousand years, at that time, Tu Youyou collected more than 2,000 ancient prescriptions for treating malaria, but after she tried it, she found that these so-called ancient prescriptions were all ineffective! But she inadvertently learned from the book "" written by a Taoist priest named Ge Hong in the Jin Dynasty In the elbow backup emergency prescription, it was found that a Taoist recipe was drunk with water and artemisia annua juice, which could relieve diarrhea. At that time, the word Artemisia annua gave Tu Youyou inspiration, and at the same time, in the words of Chinese metaphysics, it was really the luck of Chinese medicine, and this artemisinin could really fight malaria, which made her win the Nobel Prize. ”
"Just a name?" Ye Wen obviously still had a look of disbelief on his face, and Zhang Ruiming then explained.
"Yes, Chinese medicine in this Nobel Prize, really accidentally provided a name - this is really a miracle, you must know that the Artemisia annua mentioned in Ge Hong's prescription is actually artemisinin-free, artemisinin is actually in Artemisia annua, and Chinese medicine almost does not use artemisia stink. And even if Ge Hong uses the right plant, but artemisinin will decompose immediately when heated, and it is almost insoluble in water, Tu Youyou is only obtained by using ether at low temperature extraction, and the description of the ancient recipe is to drink it with water and juice - obviously, even if those people in ancient times really followed Ge Hong's recipe, it would be impossible to ingest enough artemisinin, and it would be impossible to cure malaria, which is also in line with the real historical situation, and these ancient prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine, no one has ever tested the opportunity, and it is purely a fiction of this Taoist priest. And among the more than 2,000 ancient prescriptions for malaria that Tu Xihe has found, how many kinds of animals and plants are mentioned? Among them, to be able to meet this one is already the greatest luck of Chinese medicine in the past two thousand years.
Ye Wen listened to Zhang Ruiming's introduction, although Zhang Ruiming's tone sounded uncomfortable to her, but she couldn't find anything wrong. She hesitated for a moment and asked, "As you said, is there really no benefit from Chinese medicine?"
"Benefits?" Zhang Ruiming smiled meaningfully when he heard this word
For a moment, but after laughing, his expression became low again.
"Of course, there are benefits to traditional Chinese medicine, and the benefits are too great, how many traditional Chinese medicine schools are there in the country? How many traditional Chinese medicine hospitals? How many doctors and professors have been supported by the signboard of traditional Chinese medicine? Around these two words, how many papers, reports, how many experts and scholars, and association forums are eating this bowl of rice? Moreover, just the branch market of health care products, health care products, and so on derived from it, what is the scale of that? To put it bluntly, this is actually the same as martial arts, the circle of interests is too big and too big, and because of this, no one can move this huge rice bowl, and if this rice bowl is smashed, what will happen to the country? Moreover, the word traditional Chinese medicine also represents cultural export, and now it is a signboard, whether foreigners believe it or not, at least take it out to deceive their own people, isn't it a supermarket of trillions, such a huge cake, do you say it is useful? Is it true or false? Who cares? And once you want to break this cake, how many people will stand up, the light one will reprimand you, the heavy one is eager to knock you out on the bone and suck the marrow, and those who have been deceived will never reflect, doubt, and in turn have to maintain it, anyway, it is known as Western medicine to treat the symptoms and Chinese medicine to cure the root cause, what is this "Ben", no one has seen it, and no one has said clearly, so many people have been cured, but you have not been cured, then there must be something wrong with your "Ben"!
Zhang Ruiming was talking about gritting his teeth, so that Ye Wen next to him didn't dare to come out, he didn't react after half a sound, and when he saw that Ye Wen didn't speak, he realized that he had just said too much, and he was too far away from the initial topic of the two, this time he stupidly explained, "Actually, I am this kind of character, I can't see fake things, I looked at the pilgrims all over the mountains and fields today, and I thought of these people who bought "placebo", and I thought of traditional Chinese medicine, Superstition of these things, coupled with Quan Jian's sale of health care products, are not all under the sign of traditional Chinese medicine, I am even more uncomfortable, I always feel uncomfortable if I don't scold them. In short, I actually just looked at these IQ taxes and thought about slapping them, but I didn't expect it to make you laugh......"
Zhang Ruiming smiled embarrassedly, but Ye Wen smiled, resolved the embarrassing atmosphere at this time, and comforted him, "No, I actually think what you said is very reasonable, I just saw you too engrossed at once, it's not good to interrupt you, I actually agree with what you said." These concepts of trafficking, the things of the past and the present, are not only in China, but also abroad, and even the negative effects of these religions you mentioned, then Christianity cannot be finished in three days and three nights, the whole world is like this, I understand you. ”
Ye Wen's simple sentence of "understand you" made Zhang Ruiming's mood open up a lot, and at this time, the mountain wind was blowing, and the pine waves were pleasant, which made him suddenly feel a lot more relaxed.
"I think, in fact, just like you commented on Quanjian before that these health care products, Chinese medicine is the same, they actually have a very important role, in my opinion, Chinese medicine and fans
Believe, in the current seriously fragmented Chinese society, they can solve too many social problems, you see, this traditional Chinese medicine can not only solve the loopholes of medical insurance and social security, can improve the level of consumption, the most important thing is that it can also maintain social stability, to the general public a "placebo". Therefore, the state will not oppose them, but encourage and support them. I don't know if my analysis is correct......"
When Zhang Ruiming heard this, his eyes lit up, and he nodded.
"That's right! That's why! Let's take the medical incidents that often occur in China now. Many people think that Chinese medicine is a thing that is "casual", just like worshipping a Bodhisattva without a spirit, no one will go to the temple to make trouble, and everyone has already tacitly assumed that these things cannot be logically justified for success or failure. If you succeed, you will owe it to them, and if you fail, you will excuse them, which is the "IQ tax" The typical characteristics of ah, and Quanjian is also like this in the health care products industry, like the general health care product buyers, generally use it, it will be immediately attributed to these mysterious prescriptions, but if it really doesn't work, then they will also shake their heads, saying that it is their own problem, if it is not for this time Xiao Zhouyang is because he fell too deep, completely pressed his hope on this, and spent so much money and effort, if it was like those in the past, he did not stop the normal treatment methods, and finally passed away, then it is estimated that he would not have thought of this Chinese medicine at all. Whether the health supplement is effective or not comes up this layer. ”
Looking at Zhang Ruiming's glowing eyes and high-spirited expression, Ye Wen sighed lightly, "No wonder you have just talked about traditional Chinese medicine and superstition for so long, to put it bluntly, you still think that all this is not an isolated incident, right? ”
Ye Wenzhen, as she herself said, is a person who understands Zhang Ruiming, the two of them had an in-depth discussion of the case of Quanjian not long ago, yes, when it comes to the deep-seated reasons, Zhang Ruiming always sighs and then stops, and doesn't want to say anything, this is because he knows his position deeply, knows how meager his strength is, and how to pry into the monstrous black curtain in front of that unimaginable interest group. Even now, a Quanjian Group, Zhang Ruiming is completely a grasshopper shaking a tree, for Shu Yihui, he is just a disgusting ant, and he is afraid of its "toxicity", so this rich man in the health care product industry doesn't want to shoot him to death, worried about causing discomfort. Moreover, even if Zhang Ruiming himself overthrew Quan Jian, and even, opened up his fantasies, overthrew the health care products industry, and ended the IQ tax in this field, how can these people who are easily deceived and bewitched, how can he, a small prosecutor, change? What can he change?
Thinking of this, Zhang Ruiming never dug deep into the deep-seated reasons behind these shameless industries and deeds that are extremely harmful to public welfare, because he knew that he couldn't change all this, or even anything
It can't be changed.
But as a public interest litigation prosecutor, he had to do it.
"What does it feel...... I don't think about it that much, I don't think about it that much, I just want to be myself......"
To Ye Wen's surprise, Zhang Ruiming, who was originally talking about sex, suddenly calmed down at this time, and his face was much heavier, and he didn't seem to have much interest in continuing to discuss these serious topics.
"But ......"
Ye Wen saw that his expression was suddenly serious, and she knew that it was not a good time to continue talking, she looked at the sky, and said with a smile, "Okay, Zhang Jian, since today is a rare vacation, don't you want to compensate me well?"
