Chinese medicine: from rural hospitals to top three hospitals in Kyoto

Chapter 1100 The First International Forum on Korean Medicine Inheritance and Innovation

A few days after Mueller and Robert's team left Kyoto, Ichiro Yamamoto was discharged from the hospital and returned home.

Before we knew it, it was already mid-December, and there was only half a month left until New Year's Day.

Wen Manlu's belly is already bulging, and even if she wears loose clothes, it is obvious. After all, she is more than five months pregnant.

"Dad, is there a little brother in mom's belly?"

Hanhan asked while lying in Chen Yang's arms.

"Why is it a little brother? It could also be a little sister." Chen Yang said with a smile.

"Hanhan likes little brother." Hanhan said, and paused: "Little sister likes it too."

"Well, no matter whether they are little sisters or little brothers, Hanhan, you are the older sister, you must protect them and set an example for them." Chen Yang said with a smile.

"Yes, Hanhan will definitely protect them."

Hanhan said this, then looked at Wen Manlu's belly and asked curiously, "Dad, did Hanhan also come out of Mom's belly?"

I have to say, the biggest benefit of leaving Jiping Town is that Hanhan is not very clear about her own life experience.

If this happened in Jiping Town, after Chen Yang and Wang Ya divorced, there would inevitably be people talking about them. As Hanhan grew up and became more sensible, she would also hear a lot of talk.

Although this matter cannot be kept secret and Hanhan will find out sooner or later, the later she finds out, the better.

Chen Yang and Wen Manlu did not deliberately hide anything. Hanhan was still young and knew little, so the gap between her and Wen Manlu was smaller. When she grew up, even if she knew, she would be able to feel whether Wen Manlu was good to her or not.

After leaving Jiping Town, people in Jinjiang City occasionally talked about it, but most of the time they didn't say it in person. When they arrived in Kyoto, except for those who were familiar with them, no one around them knew the true relationship between Hanhan and Wen Manlu. Even the kindergarten teachers and neighbors thought that Hanhan was Wen Manlu's biological daughter.

Hanhan is only a little over four years old now, and she now thinks that Wen Manlu is her biological mother.

In addition, Wang Ya hardly visited Hanhan for such a long time. She only took Hanhan out to play once when they were still in Jinjiang City. Two years is really too long for a child like Hanhan. It can blur many memories and make people get used to many things. Hanhan has really forgotten Wang Ya now.

"Of course." Chen Yang said with a smile.

Chen Yang was not lying to Hanhan, because Hanhan was of course born from her mother's womb.

"how come?"

Hanhan said in surprise: "Hanhan is so big, and mommy's belly is so small..."

Hanhan is over four years old. She is of a decent height, not too tall, and about the same height as her peers. She is not fat, and is of a standard height. Compared to Wen Manlu's belly, Hanhan thinks that she definitely can't fit in it either.

Wen Manlu and Chen Yang were both amused by Hanhan.

"Little girl, you don't have so many weird ideas all day long."

Chen Yang smiled and rubbed Hanhan's head: "Okay, Dad has to go to work, Mom will take you to kindergarten."

Chen Yang came to the medical center and had just sat down in the office for a while when Gao Anliang knocked on the door and came in.

"Director Chen."

"Director Gao, please sit down." Chen Yang smiled and asked Gao Anliang to sit down.

"Director Chen, please take a look at this."

After Gao Anliang sat down, he handed a folder to Chen Yang. Chen Yang took it and took a look at it. He couldn't help laughing: "The little Korean is not at all quiet."

"It must be because he saw what happened at our Kyoto International Medical Center and couldn't sit still anymore." Gao Anliang said with a smile.

In the folder Gao Anliang handed to Chen Yang, there was an international medical newspaper on top and an invitation letter underneath.

The news in the International Medical News is about the establishment of the International Korean Medicine Medical Center in Country H.

Three days ago, Country H established the International Korean Medicine Medical Center in their capital, Seoul. The center's opening ceremony was very grand.

H Country's International Korean Medicine Medical Center is headed by Kim Min-cheol, the director of the H Country Korean Medicine Research Institute, and Park Jung-hwan, the national medical master of H Country, serves as a technical consultant. It brings together a large number of top Korean medicine experts from H Country.

Obviously, Country H saw the news about the Kyoto International Medical Center and couldn't sit still. It couldn't help but jump out to stir up trouble and take advantage of the popularity, or perhaps it wanted to use this to build an international medical institution of its own country.

As we all know, Country H is a very strange nation. The people have a mysterious self-confidence. In the eyes of Country H, many things belong to their country, and even traditional Chinese medicine is just a copy of Korean medicine.

Now that Chinese medicine has been making so many moves internationally, Korean doctors are naturally unable to sit still.

Relatively speaking, the status of Korean medicine in Country H is quite special. Because Country H lacks national self-confidence and is trying hard to get rid of the influence of Chinese culture and build its own historical culture, it does attach more importance to traditional culture.

In recent years, H country has applied for many things to be listed as world heritage and has also taken many things for itself. In the 1980s, H country officially changed the name of Chinese medicine to Korean medicine and gave it the status of a professional medical system through law.

In Country H, medical restrictions are also relatively strict. Western medicine hospitals are strictly prohibited from using Korean medicine, and Korean medicine institutions are not allowed to perform surgery or use modern medical equipment (such as tests, CT, etc.). They can only use traditional diagnosis and treatment methods.

This restriction can be said to have both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it establishes the status of Korean medicine. The status of Korean medicine in Country H is relatively good. Because of the separation of Western medicine and Korean medicine, traditional Korean medicine has a certain space and is not affected by Western medicine, allowing Korean medicine to develop to a certain extent and maintain certain characteristics.

The disadvantage is that due to certain restrictions, the development of Korean medicine is subject to certain constraints.

This actually means that conservatives are a bit too conservative.

The entry threshold for Korean medicine practitioners is high, there is no retirement age limit, the salary and social status are good, which also makes the Korean medicine profession in Country H quite popular.

"The First International Forum on the Inheritance and Innovation of Korean Medicine?"

Chen Yang looked at the invitation letter again.

Country H will hold the first International Forum on Korean Medicine Inheritance and Innovation in the capital Seoul in the middle of next month, which is January 15th, so it specially sent an invitation letter to Kyoto Medical Center, inviting Chen Yang to attend the meeting.

"The little Korean guy really dares to use any words." Chen Yang said with a smile.

"Medical conferences are just so-so, full of gimmicks. Any similar conference has to have the word 'international' added to it to make it look more prestigious."

Gao Anliang smiled and said, "But the little Korean's first... is indeed a bit..."

"And since it's an international forum and Korean medicine is used... we want to be generous but don't want to lose face." Gao Anliang said.

Speaking of traditional Chinese medicine, in fact, many neighboring countries, such as Country R, ​​Country H and other countries, have traditional Chinese medicine traditions, but they just changed the name.

Korean medicine, Korean medicine, is not recognized by people in country H. In fact, those who understand it know what it is.

Although it is not widely recognized internationally, there are actually two medical systems in the world today. One is modern medicine, also known as Western medicine, and the other is traditional Chinese medicine. The term Western medicine originated from traditional Chinese medicine, while Korean medicine is a relatively niche term.
