From anti traditional Chinese medicine organizations to the continuous surge of traditional Chinese medicine, who has been offended by traditional Chinese medicine?

Since May, the market prices of traditional Chinese medicine have skyrocketed, and so far, nearly 300 varieties of medicinal materials have increased in price by multiple times; At the same time, Japanese pharmaceutical company Tsumura Pharmaceutical is actively acquiring our major traditional Chinese medicine companies, and major multinational pharmaceutical companies are also following suit and entering the Chinese traditional Chinese medicine industry; In China, there are anti traditional Chinese medicine organizations, anti traditional Chinese medicine media, and anti traditional Chinese medicine authors Like bamboo shoots springing up after rain this year, they are popping up crazily.

The abnormal trend of "anti traditional Chinese medicine" has caused panic among the people:

What are the reasons for these abnormal phenomena? What forces are behind this? Is our own traditional Chinese medicine dying? Can't even afford traditional Chinese medicine in the future?

Today we will explore together what the secret behind this "anti traditional Chinese medicine" is.

1. Millennium History of Traditional Chinese Medicine: Development Faces Difficulties

From the Nobel Prize for artemisinin to the fame of traditional Chinese medicine in the three years of the epidemic. In recent years, the contribution of traditional Chinese medicine has become evident to all. Traditional Chinese medicine has gradually moved towards the world and humanity, and is a well-deserved treasure of our Chinese nation.

Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period, the history of traditional Chinese medicine has been thousands of years. The legend of Shennong tasting a hundred herbs, Huangdi discussing medicine, and Fuxi making nine needles has grown up with our childhood memories. Traditional Chinese medicine is undoubtedly a treasure of the Chinese nation. But with the integration and development of the world and the progress of science and technology, Western medicine has been introduced to China, and traditional Chinese medicine has begun to embark on a "downhill path", making the development path increasingly difficult and abnormal.

There are three main reasons that affect the difficult development of contemporary Chinese medicine:

Firstly, the economic benefits are low.

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes looking, smelling, asking, and cutting, without the diverse examinations and surgeries of Western medicine. Medicinal materials are mainly composed of Chinese herbal medicine, which can be easily prepared by soaking and boiling. However, although Western medicine is convenient to consume, the pharmaceutical process is complex. So from any perspective, traditional Chinese medicine has lower costs and economic benefits. Generally speaking, traditional Chinese medicine does not make money at all. This is also the main reason for the difficulties in the development of traditional Chinese medicine education, as more and more people are unwilling to practice medicine, and even if they do, they are unwilling to choose traditional Chinese medicine. Any discipline that cannot retain talent cannot survive indefinitely.

Secondly, the impact of foreign cultures.

Western medicine is not a local culture, and it can be seen from the literal meaning that it is a medicine passed down from the West. The fast and intuitive characteristics of Western medicine have quickly opened up our country, and it has been highly praised and surpassed traditional Chinese medicine for over 200 years since its introduction to China. On the other hand, traditional Chinese medicine, which emphasizes the theories of essence and qi, yin and yang and five elements, qi, blood, body fluids, visceral signs, meridians, constitution, etiology, pathogenesis, treatment principles, and health preservation, cannot be seen and intuitive. For a long time, it has been labeled as "feudal", "superstitious", and "useless" by some ignorant people, reducing the trust of the people in traditional Chinese medicine and seriously affecting the development of contemporary Chinese medicine.

Thirdly, the complexity of medicinal materials.

According to incomplete statistics, there are over a thousand types of traditional Chinese medicine, including both animal and plant medicinal materials, as well as wild and artificially cultivated ones. And different traditional Chinese medicines also have different pharmaceutical methods rather than simple drying, which increases the difficulty of supplying traditional Chinese medicine.

The variety of Chinese medicinal materials is complex and diverse. Contemporary Chinese medicine must master the characteristics of each kind of medicinal materials, such as efficacy, category, taboo, and thousands of Chinese medicines. This is an arduous challenge for any Chinese medicine scholar, which also increases the difficulty of selecting talents in the field of Chinese medicine.

1. Anti Traditional Chinese Medicine Organizations: Who is the Mysterious Power Behind Them

The red banner of the "Shanghai First Anti Traditional Chinese Medicine Conference" in the picture was particularly eye-catching, and immediately sparked heated discussions online. This is the first anti traditional Chinese medicine alliance established in Shanghai, consisting of a large number of middle-aged and elderly people from Shanghai. It is our responsibility to suppress and eliminate traditional Chinese medicine. Publicize that Western medicine is "science" and Chinese medicine is "Pseudoscience", and strive to completely eliminate traditional Chinese medicine and replace traditional Chinese medicine with western medicine.

And these anti traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, there are many highly knowledgeable individuals, and even well-known Western medicine practitioners. The most famous of them are columnist Wang Moujun and pediatric surgeon Pei Mougang.

It is reported that columnist Wang Moujun has extensively hired a navy to smear traditional Chinese medicine, established more than 20 anti traditional Chinese medicine groups, and recruited a large number of social personnel to write articles that smear traditional Chinese medicine. The price is based on the reading volume, and even a black post can earn tens of thousands of yuan. And Pei Mougang, a well-known doctor and internet celebrity, is a wealthy individual of Wang Moujun, with multiple articles costing tens of thousands of yuan, indicating how negative the impact is.

After the incident was exposed, millions of internet celebrities Pei just refused to admit it and staged a big drama of "there is no silver in this place of three hundred taels", claiming that he did not know Wang Moujun and had never received money to smear traditional Chinese medicine. In the end, he did not forget to make a poisonous oath "spreading rumors that others use money to blackmail traditional Chinese medicine will kill the whole family".

Regardless of whether the revelations are true or not, whether Pei Mougang used black money to smear traditional Chinese medicine is also evident in his hostility towards traditional Chinese medicine. He once launched numerous negative comments on netizens who support traditional Chinese medicine in his comments section of his popular science article.

There are various opinions on the forces behind anti mafia organizations, among which the most highly praised one is foreign forces, as Wang Moujun once revealed that he has foreign funding support and only one boss.

In my opinion, whether it is military aggression during wartime or cultural invasion during peacetime, this is all aggression. And those who try to eliminate national culture and harm national interests by acting in a gang like manner will always be "traitors" and should be nailed to the pillar of shame by the party and the people.

1. The Crazy Rise of Traditional Chinese Medicine: Is It Normal or Conspiracy

With the rising temperature, the Chinese medicine market should not usher in the off-season, but this year's Chinese medicine market is very abnormal. Instead of falling, the price of a variety of Chinese medicine has risen wantonly, leading to the suspension of sales and production of some traditional Chinese patent medicines and simple preparations, which has a great adverse impact on people's medicine consumption.

Industry insiders have stated that "in the past three months, the number and magnitude of price increases in traditional Chinese medicine have been unprecedented in 40 years

There are two explanations for the bizarre surge in traditional Chinese medicine.

One is the natural market reasons given by some media.

Weather, land rent, labor, production, and external financial intervention are all important factors that affect the supply and price of traditional Chinese medicine.

Firstly, due to natural reasons, the severe temperature this year has led to a decrease in the production of many Chinese herbal medicines, which has further led to a decrease in supply, such as the cultivation of Angelica sinensis in Qinghai region. Secondly, due to human factors, over the past three years of the pandemic, more and more people have recognized the great charm of traditional Chinese medicine and placed greater emphasis on hygiene and health, leading to an increase in demand. A large number of pharmaceutical factories and drug dealers have realized the imbalance between supply and demand, urgently hoarding drugs, further exacerbating the imbalance between supply and demand. At this time, capital quietly appeared, and traditional Chinese medicine was treated as a financial product, driving up prices.

The uneven supply and demand leading to price increases is indeed reasonable, but another view is not unfounded.

The other is the Conspiracy theory of TCM that some people worry about.

From the anti traditional Chinese medicine alliance in Shanghai, to the intense acquisition of China Traditional Chinese Medicine Group by multinational corporations, and to a large number of fresh faces entering the herbal medicine market to purchase Chinese herbal medicines in large quantities, capital has bid up prices. The coincidence of all this is somewhat frightening.

Life is the foundation of a person's survival, and the contribution of traditional Chinese medicine culture to the Chinese people cannot be measured. When the secret formula of traditional Chinese medicine, which has been established for thousands of years, is stolen by foreign countries; When traditional Chinese medicine with high efficiency and minimal side effects is monopolized by foreign countries; When the profound Chinese medicine culture is labeled as "Pseudoscience"; When no one inherits the skill of our millennium old divine medicine; When the originally cheap traditional Chinese medicine is too expensive for Chinese people to afford I don't know what that world is like.

I don't know, I dare not think about it.

Regardless of the reason, it is necessary to awaken our Chinese people's awareness of the protection of traditional Chinese medicine. It is not only a medical skill, but also the most precious gift left to us by our ancestors, and should not be destroyed in the hands of our generation.

We are all duty-bound to support and promote the development of traditional Chinese medicine culture, strictly prevent and resist foreign cultural plunder!

We need to protect our country and culture for our ancestors!
