Chapter 40: The Old Ways

The original advocate of the Chinese Medical Association was Wu Liande. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, as early as 1910, Wu Liande advocated the establishment of a medical association of China's own in the newspaper, but because there were too few "Western doctors" in China, and his personal prestige was not enough, and the establishment of a medical association cost money, so the matter was over.

It was not until 1915 that the Chinese Medical Association was formally established.

Compared with the huge scale of millions of doctors and hundreds of thousands of members of the medical association in the future, the early Chinese Medical Association was pitifully small, with only more than 200 people when it was established, and the first president was Yan Fuqing, who had just graduated and returned to China for a few years. The president of a medical association in a large country was headed by a 33-year-old young man who had just received his M.D. from Yale University for only six years.

For China, where modern medicine is just beginning, this is something that cannot be helped.

And don't forget, China is still the world of traditional medicine these days, and its power can be described as deep-rooted. For example, when Wu Liande was fighting the plague in Northeast China, many Chinese medicine practitioners criticized his measures, and the two sides were inseparable, which led to Wu Liande's desire to learn from Japan and completely abolish Chinese medicine after he took power......

Well, that's a long way off.

John naturally knew about Wu Liande's question, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Wu, there are public welfare medical academic organizations in all countries, such as the British Medical Association, the American Medical Association, etc., I think if you want to promote modern medicine and promote the development of modern medicine in China, it is imperative to establish a medical association!" Therefore, I thought about funding the establishment of the Chinese Medical Association and the establishment of the Chinese Medical Journal......"

Before they finished speaking, Wu Liande and Yan Fuqing's faces were filled with joy.

No matter how the so-called medical associations and physician associations in later generations did to "money" and how many despicable things they did, it cannot be denied that it was precisely because of their existence that doctors across the country had the opportunity to communicate with each other. On the other hand, academic exchanges between countries are mostly carried out through academic societies, which will become a trend in the future! For China's fragile modern medical foundation, the role of establishing a medical association is undoubtedly very large.

Oh yes, and there's a journal for the Society!

It's just that whether it is the establishment of the Chinese Medical Association or the establishment of a magazine, it requires not only a certain foundation, but also the support of money, contacts and organizational experience!

Money is best understood, most of the Western medicine in China has not had a good time these days, on the one hand, because the level itself is relatively low, on the other hand, it is also because the Chinese people have not yet accepted this kind of doctor who does not use decoction and silver needles, so it must cost money to organize them to participate in the conference or something; The second is the network, if the medical association does not have any authority after being organized, and cannot be recognized by domestic doctors, I am afraid it will not be of much significance; As for the final organizational experience, it is even better to say that the messy organization will only disgrace him......

Therefore, Wu Liande and Yan Fuqing in history did not establish the Chinese Medical Association until 1915.

At that time, Wu Liande had a high reputation, Yan Fuqing was also the principal of Xiangya Medical College, and together with the medical doctors of St. John's University in Shanghai, he could barely organize a loose society. It's just that until 1949, the total number of members of this organization was only two or three thousand, and its influence never spread.

But in this world, Yan Fuqing and Wu Liande see hope!

If they rely on themselves, it will be difficult to establish the Chinese Medical Association, and it will be even more difficult to develop it in the future. But if there was John? With Mr. Huntelaar's support, I'm afraid everything will be much easier!

Needless to say, money and organizational experience, Yan Fuqing is the most confident at this time, and when it comes to connections, who else in the Chinese Western medicine community today can be stronger than Mr. Huntelaar? Originally, he was recognized as the world's top doctor, even in China, which is on the fringe of the medical profession, there must be very few people who have not heard of this name, not to mention that in today's modern Chinese medical community, the doctors of the Huntelaar system may have accounted for half of the country!

As far as Yan Fuqing knows, since he was the first to choose to return to China, more than 50 Western medical doctors have returned from the United States and Germany in the past three years, all of whom have been sponsored by Mr. Huntelaar to study abroad. And don't forget, these people are not doctors trained in the church schools in China, nor are they trained by the immature system in Europe, but by the Huntelaar system, and everyone has done at least three years of physician training there after graduation!

In other words, these people are the most elite group of people in China's medical field now!

At least Yan Fuqing knew very well in his heart that if he only talked about medical skills, each of them would not be worse than himself, and he would definitely be more superb than Wu Liande. This is the characteristic of medicine, even if Wu Liande is a famous figure in history, and he is an elite who returned from studying in Europe, but it is still a lot worse than the elite that John has worked so hard to cultivate!

If you want to establish the Chinese Medical Association, these people are willing to join in......

Under the burning gaze of Yan Fuqing and Wu Liande, John nodded heavily and said: "Gentlemen, the current Chinese medical community needs a medical association, and I suggest that it be called the Chinese Medical Association, and invite doctors from all over China to participate...... In the meantime, you can start preparing for the Chinese Medical Journal, Huntelaar Publishing House has trained several Chinese editors who are fully capable of all the work, and as far as the funding is concerned, ......"

"Sir, I hope the funds will be raised by ourselves!"

This time, without waiting for John to finish speaking, Wu Liande hurriedly interjected very impolitely, and then as if he was afraid of what John would say, he hurriedly continued: "I think if it is just preparation, it will not require a lot of funds, and there are many people in the country now...... Therefore, everyone can definitely make up the funds! ”

"Uh...... Brother Starlink, you are ......"

Hearing Wu Liande's words, Yan Fuqing was stunned for a moment, and a look of incomprehension flashed in his eyes. It seemed natural for him to accept Mr. Huntelaar's help, so he was a little puzzled as to why Wu Liande would refuse. After all, whether it is a medical association or a magazine, it costs a lot of money, and it will definitely be much easier if you have financial sponsorship.

"Humph!"

Compared with Yan Fuqing, who didn't understand yet, Einheil immediately discovered what Wu Liande meant, and couldn't help but snort lightly! It's just that because John is still here, the dissatisfied Einheil can't have a seizure on the spot, but the eyes that look at Wu Liande are a little unkind.

"Oh?"

John's brows furrowed at first, and then after seeing Wu Liande's somewhat uneasy expression, he instantly understood what the other party meant.

Knowing and understanding, John couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.

No matter how lost John was in his heart, he could not become a Chinese in this life after all, so after a short silence, John nodded and said indifferently: "Well, in that case, I hope Mr. Wu will listen to another suggestion, how about it?" ”

"Goo-dong!"

Wu Liande swallowed a mouthful of foam hard, forcibly suppressed the wild beating in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Sir, please speak." ”

"As you should know, I'm going to build a pharmaceutical factory and a medical device factory in China."

After a moment of silence, John said seriously: "Although the technical requirements are relatively high, and the Chinese market is relatively small, but considering the future development, and the technical school can also train a lot of high-quality workers, so I think it is still necessary." However, the promotion of drugs and medical devices in China will probably be indispensable for your help in the future......"

"Uh......"

Wu Liande didn't understand it when he heard this, but Einheil was shocked in his heart, and his face changed greatly! At the same time, Yan Fuqing seemed to suddenly think of something, his eyes opened, and a look of surprise appeared on his face!

Only Wu Liande blinked blankly, not understanding what it meant.

"Huh."

Seeing the changes in the expressions of the three of them, John smiled lightly, and then said: "Mr. Wu, in fact, the method is very simple, and it can be regarded as an old practice, I will ask Keqing to explain it to you well when I go back......" (To be continued.) )
