Chapter 159: Where is the next generation of Chinese medicine?
These students have now been completely mobilized by Wang Ming to learn enthusiasm, and asked some things that they usually don't know badly, and Wang Ming also answered patiently with a smile
These students are also happy to do this, although Wang Ming sometimes answers in a crepe, but most of them are quoted from the classics, which is very funny, these students listen to it easily, and remember it carefully!
When these students calmed down for a short moment, Wang Ming opened his mouth and asked:
"Now I have a few questions for you, can you?" asked Wang Ming, still cordially.
"Good!"
"Just ask!"
Although these students didn't know what Wang Ming was asking, they still answered with enthusiasm in their voices.
"Be quiet, now that I don't let you speak, you can try not to make a sound, okay?" Wang Ming nodded and said.
"Yes, teacher!" the uniform voice appeared among the teachers, and appeared in the sky above the entire University of Chinese Medicine.
"This classmate, answer my question. Wang Ming pointed to a student and said.
"Yes, teacher. ”
"Excuse me, do you know how to recite medicinal properties?" Wang Ming asked with a smile.
"No?????? No. The student's originally excited cheeks had turned purple at this time, this was no longer excited, this was the shame after being asked by Wang Ming, a Chinese medicine doctor known as the Chinese doctor, and he had a feeling of shamelessness.
"Okay, you sit down first. I ask you, you tell me honestly!Can recite medicinal properties, raise your hand!" Wang Ming motioned for the other party to sit down first, and then looked at the students below and asked.
"Whew!" came after a short soft sound. Not even a third of them.
Although these people who raised their hands were a little proud, they were also taken aback when they saw this scene in front of them, and their hearts dimmed a lot, and those who did not raise their hands had already lowered their heads at this time. They are not only guilty of the Chinese medicine of Chinese medicine, but also of themselves!
"Well, what about reciting soup songs?"
Wang Ming asked again. This time, there were a few more people who raised their hands, and a few of those who raised their hands before put them down.
"Those who can understand ancient books such as "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" and "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" raised their hands and let me see them. ”
This time, only a handful of people raised their hands. Although Wang Ming was prepared, this result still made him feel a little sad in his heart.
"Let's all put our hands down. ”
After Wang Ming finished speaking, he settled down and said: "I understand your current result. You don't need to be too upset and blame yourself, but if you want to be a good TCM practitioner, you have to rely on yourself. ”
"An old Chinese medicine doctor told me before that the biggest crisis of Chinese medicine is that there is no successor. Perhaps in less than 50 years, Chinese medicine will automatically withdraw from the stage of history without being canceled by others. I was a little skeptical before, but now I'm deeply worried. Maybe you're still in school and don't understand the crisis, but I think the confused student should be able to answer it. ”
After Wang Ming finished speaking, he said to the man who had just asked him to help him choose a way out: "You should have studied these." Can you give these students some clarification?"
Hearing Wang Ming's sudden words, this person was a little stunned, but he recovered after a while, and said respectfully to Wang Ming: "The student has understood, since the teacher asked me to express my opinion." Then I'll talk about it, where is there anything wrong, I hope the teacher will correct it. ”
After Wang Ming heard the other party's respectful words, he nodded and signaled that the other party could speak.
"Since Mr. Wang asked me to talk about it, then I will give you my own opinions. I don't know if you usually have the habit of reading newspapers, but a few days ago I saw a headline in the People's Daily: 'The People's Daily does not vomit and is unhappy: where is the next generation of Chinese medicine! The number of practitioners of Western medicine in China is about 5.5 million, while the number of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners is only about 400,000, a decrease of 20% compared with the 50s of the 20th century. At present, a group of Chinese medicine practitioners over the age of 50 in China are struggling to support the crisis, and there are fewer and fewer young people who are interested in traditional Chinese medicine. As the teacher just said, there are concerns about the future of traditional Chinese medicine, and traditional Chinese medicine is falling into an unprecedented "inheritance crisis." Although he started by questioning, he didn't wait for others to answer, he started himself. …,
"Colleges and universities of traditional Chinese medicine are the cradle of traditional Chinese medicine talents. However, even here, TCM education is facing the fate of Westernization. Although I have started working now, I also came out of your time, and I know that it has become a common phenomenon that you spend two-fifths of your time studying Western medicine, two-fifths of your time studying foreign languages, and only one-fifth of your time studying Chinese medicine. Some TCM classical courses have been cut down or even reduced to elective courses, while Western medical theories have been strengthened day by day. Just like the question the teacher asked you just now, it is true that many students have a high level of foreign language and computer skills, but their traditional Chinese cultural cultivation is very poor, some of them cannot read the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" and "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", and some of them can't even recite the basic medicinal properties and soup songs. What's even more terrifying is that the higher the level of education, the farther away from the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine. Many TCM graduate students do not work on the theoretical basis and clinical practice of TCM, but follow the model of Western medicine, study cells and molecules, and do a lot of animal experiments. It is said that "both Chinese and Western medicine are emphasized", but in fact, "Western medicine is valued over Chinese". As a result, after graduation, many students do not know how to "see, hear, ask, and see", nor can they prescribe medicines, which are called traditional Chinese medicine, but are actually Western medicine. Some experts pointed out sharply that modern Chinese medicine education has turned students into semi-finished products of Chinese medicine that are not proficient in Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and has cultivated a group of gravediggers of Chinese medicine. This is an extreme statement, but I think it is not unreasonable. ”
"Here are some of my personal thoughts, the teacher education of master leading apprentices and master and apprentice inheritance is the traditional model of Chinese medicine talent training in China. For thousands of years, this model has created many skilled doctors. Oral teaching and teaching according to aptitude have become a major feature of TCM education. However, today, as the teacher said before, although many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners trained by teachers are of a very high level, due to the lack of knowledge of Western medicine, they cannot pass the qualification examination for licensed physicians and cannot obtain legal qualifications. They follow the family inheritance model, and some "tricks" are often reluctant to be made public, and many valuable prescriptions are lost.
Moreover, Chinese medicine is very cheap compared to Western medicine, which also causes the income of traditional Chinese medicine hospitals to be very small, and they have to change to traditional Chinese medicine, and the disadvantages of traditional Chinese medicine have also caused patients to be disappointed and distrustful of traditional Chinese medicine!"
