Chapter 741: The Debate
Lou Zhiping came up unceremoniously and aggressively, although what he said was a clichΓ© attacking Chinese medicine, but it was the most difficult thing to answer.
After all, the theories advocated by traditional Chinese medicine, whether it is yin and yang, or meridians, meridians, and qi, cannot be vividly placed in front of people, and it is difficult to have direct convincing power.
In order to make today's matter more influential, Lou Zhiping has recruited many media reporters to surround the entire debate platform, and the momentum is not inferior to yesterday's inspection by the World Medical Association.
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Haodong's face, looking forward to his answer.
Qin Haodong looked at Lou Zhiping with a smile and asked calmly: "Mr. Lou, I heard that you are a well-known scholar with deep attainments in scientific research?"
"Of course, I've always been a scientist. β
Lou Zhiping raised his chin as he spoke, with a smug face.
Qin Haodong said: "Then let me ask a question, what is the temperature of the sun, and what is the distance from the earth?"
Lou Zhiping was originally a professor, and he always regarded himself as a scientific person on weekdays, and immediately replied: "The surface temperature of the sun is 5,500 degrees Celsius, the core temperature is about 20 million degrees Celsius, and the distance from the earth is 149.6 million kilometers." β
After he finished speaking, there was a burst of pride, not just anyone can remember these data clearly in their minds.
Qin Haodong smiled and asked, "Professor Lou, may I ask if you measured these data, or did you see it with your own eyes?"
"Uh......"
Lou Zhiping almost choked to death with his own saliva, "What nonsense are you talking about? These scientific data are all speculated by scientists!"
Let him measure the temperature of the sun, will he still be able to live until now?
"Speculation? You don't see the things of Chinese medicine and say that they are unscientific, why do you believe this speculative thing?"
"I ......"
Lou Zhiping was speechless, licked his dry lips and said, "Mr. Qin, these things are too far away from us to explain anything. β
"It's too far away, then let me ask another question, have you seen your grandfather?"
"I haven't seen it!"
Qin Haodong said: "Then you haven't even seen him in person, should you question his existence? According to your theory, only what you see is real and scientific." β
"I ......"
Lou Zhiping found out that Qin Haodong was much more difficult to deal with than he imagined, and he looked happy, but he was pitting one step at a time.
"Qin Haodong, you are completely quibbling!"
"Am I quibbling or are you speaking with a clear conscience?"
Qin Haodong said: "So things that people have not seen do not mean that they do not exist, such as genetic code, such as viruses, we ordinary people have never seen them, do you say that it does not exist?"
Traditional Chinese medicine has existed in China for 5,000 years, and has made immortal contributions to the survival and reproduction of the Chinese nation.
The debate he just made seemed a bit tricky and absurd, but the effect was the most direct, powerful, and acceptable.
After these last words, the audience immediately burst into thunderous applause!
After many debates, although Qin Haodong seized the opportunity, Lou Zhiping did not panic, and said after the applause faded: "I often hear you Chinese medicine use thousands of years of inheritance as a weight to prove that Chinese medicine is an ethereal thing.
In the era of full belief in traditional Chinese medicine, the average life expectancy of our Chinese people is only thirty or forty years old, and since the introduction of Western medicine into China, the average life expectancy of people has reached more than seventy years old.
I even think that the short life expectancy of Chinese people in the past is inseparable from the use of such unscientific things as traditional Chinese medicine. β
The audience sitting in the audience were all students of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and when they heard Lou Zhiping reversing black and white and smearing Chinese medicine like this, they were immediately excited, and they couldn't wait to rush to the stage to debate with this guy.
Qin Haodong still looked indifferent, he was not angered by Lou Zhiping's words, nor was he disrupted by his nonsense, and continued to talk eloquently: "Mr. Luo, according to your theory, when we believed in traditional Chinese medicine, the life expectancy of Chinese people was short, and the Europeans and Americans who have always believed in Western medicine should live longer.
But in fact, this is not the case, in the same period of history, compared with the average life expectancy of Europeans and Americans is not as good as that of our Chinese, which can truly explain the value of Chinese medicine. β
"Good...... Teacher Qin is right, the role of Chinese medicine in China is indelible......"
"Teacher Qin, that's great, I support you......"
As soon as Qin Haodong paused, the audience burst into warm applause.
After a while, he said: "Now people's life expectancy is extended, which is caused by a variety of factors, the average life expectancy of Chinese people in ancient times was short, and the main reason was to die from hunger, war and other factors.
From ancient times to the present, Chinese medicine has never been inferior when it comes to truly considering medical skills, and this historical data can give full proof.
In the process of human development, nearly 100 million people died from the Black Death in Europe, but our China was unscathed, nearly 75 million people died from the Spanish flu, we are fine in China, and 25 million people died from the Justinian plague in the West, and our China is still not affected.
The world's top 10 largest infectious diseases in terms of the number of deaths have not broken out in our country once, what do you think this depends on? Is it due to luck? Of course not, it depends on our miraculous Chinese medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine has guarded the reproduction of our Chinese nation for thousands of years, and now it is questioned by you as pseudoscience, don't you feel ashamed?"
When Qin Haodong's remarks were published, there was another burst of cheers and shouts at the scene, and the students in the audience were all ignited by his words to ignite their passion and recognition of traditional Chinese medicine.
Although Lou Zhiping looked quite calm, there was a panic in his eyes, and the young man in front of him did not look like the old Chinese medicine doctor he had dealt with before.
Although those old Chinese medicine practitioners have high medical skills, they have done medical work all their lives, and their minds are not very flexible, and they are not good at words.
Just a few months ago, he had a debate with a well-known old Chinese medicine doctor, and at that time, he only used a few words to provoke the anger of the old Chinese medicine doctor, completely lost his square inch, and used the recognition of a certain leader and I won a certain honor to prove the scientific nature of Chinese medicine, and finally laughed and generous, so that he was really angry.
And Qin Haodong in front of him is not only young, but also has a flexible mind and sharp words, his little tricks don't work at all, and he has firmly gained the upper hand since the debate began.
In any case, today's debate must be won, taking a deep breath and suppressing his panicked emotions, Zhiping continued: "Doctor Qin, I have to say that your eloquence is good, and you are very good at stirring up everyone's emotions, but the facts are the facts, and you can't change them with a few beautiful words. β
He reached out and took out a newspaper from his pocket: "Doctor Qin, I don't know if you have read the news three days ago, a Chinese medicine doctor caused the death of a 5-year-old child because of careless medication, I don't know what else you can quibble about in the face of this fact?"
After he said this, there was silence in the audience, this news has really been very hot recently, and many people have stood up to accuse Chinese medicine because of this incident.
The eyes of the scene once again focused on Qin Haodong's face, and he didn't know how this witty Teacher Qin would answer.
Qin Haodong said: "Mr. Lou, you don't need to read the newspaper, I have also seen the medical accident you said from the Internet." β
Lou Zhiping slapped the table and shouted with great momentum: "Chinese medicine has killed a 5-year-old child, it can be said that it hurts the heavens and reason, what else do you have to say?"
This fully proves that Chinese medicine is a trick to deceive people, it cannot cure diseases at all, but is a harmful thing!"
Qin Haodong said: "The official has not yet given the final result of this medical accident, whether it was due to other causes of death, or because of traditional Chinese medicine treatment, there is no clear statement, please don't close the coffin."
Aside from this medical malpractice, I would like to ask Mr. Lou, have you done any research, what is the number of deaths caused by TCM medical malpractice, what is the ratio, what is the number of deaths caused by Western medicine, what is the ratio?"
"This ...... I don't know. β
Lou Zhiping did not answer, in fact, he had done this kind of research, which was originally intended to be an important weight for attacking Chinese medicine, but after the results came out, it was found that both the number of deaths and the probability of death in Chinese medicine were far lower than those of Western medicine.
"Mr. Lou is a well-known scholar, does he not know these data and still dare not show it?" Qin Haodong sneered, "In reality, the number and proportion of deaths caused by Western medicine are much higher than those of traditional Chinese medicine."
To be specific, how many people die each year because of penicillin allergies, how many people die because of a wrong diagnosis, how many people die because of improper surgery?
When Western medicine heals the dead, why don't you say that he is witchcraft, that he is unscientific?"
"I ......"
Lou Zhiping was speechless again, using the case as an entity attack, which was also one of his usual methods, but it was ineffective again in front of this young man.
Qin Haodong turned his head to the reporters and students around him and said: "Whether it is Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine, it is inevitable that there will be failure cases, but once there is a failure case, the results obtained are completely different.
Western medicine treats death as a normal case of failure, which is inevitable, and will not affect its scientificity, its status in reality, and no one will stand up and scold the street.
But as for traditional Chinese medicine, once there is a medical accident, many people will jump to their feet and scold their mothers, saying that Chinese medicine is witchcraft, deception, and unscientific. β
This time, there was no applause in the audience, but on the contrary, they all fell into silence, and the atmosphere became extremely heavy, which caused everyone to think deeply.
It is true that medical malpractice in Western medicine is unavoidable and even natural in many people's subconscious.
But when this situation occurs in traditional Chinese medicine, the whole society has no tolerance, and there is a lot of criticism and scolding, what is causing this situation to happen?
Lou Zhiping shouted again: "Qin Haodong, I admit that you are very capable of quibbling, but these things you said are all illusory.
The yin and yang and meridians mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine are not visible, and what you say is still invisible, what you can do is to deceive the masses with these imaginary things, which are not scientific at all, and cannot stand the test of time at all. β
Knowing that this guy was a dog raised in the West, he was doing things with money, and there was no so-called scientific spirit at all, Qin Haodong also lost interest in continuing to argue with him, and said with a sneer: "You mean that what you can't see is unscientific?"
Lou Zhiping shouted almost hysterically: Of course, Chinese medicine is inherently illusory, and it is made up by you people to deceive people, and it is the most unscientific model!"
