Chapter 397 Opposing Viewpoints
"I know." Zhou Bo frowned and walked towards President Guo's office.He knew very well that he was afraid that Professor Wang would have to leave it to him to choose the Chinese medicine topic. Although he was unwilling to do so, he had nothing to do.

When you get to the office door, knock on the door and go in.

"Come on, sit down quickly." President Guo was very enthusiastic.

Zhou Bo squeezed a smile and sat down. He sighed again and said, "Okay, I have adjusted my mentality. Give me the manuscript and the author's phone number. I will take care of this matter personally." Son, I will seriously publish this book for Professor Wang."

Unexpectedly, President Guo's face became increasingly weird: "Is it fun to tease me?"

"Ah?" Zhou Bo was so confused that the monk couldn't figure it out.

President Guo said unhappily: "Are you still pretending? Aren't you the one who informed Mr. Gao?"

"Lao Gao?" Zhou Bo was confused. Why did his leader change his name to others?

President Guo said: "I got a few calls last night and I didn't sleep well all night. I said you are not very motivated. We have worked together for so many years. Is there anything you can't tell me in advance? You have to do this!"

"Ah..." Zhou Bo murmured, as if he had noticed some significant changes, and asked again: "What about the topic..."

President Guo said angrily: "Whatever you choose, let other publishing houses handle Professor Wang's books. Gao Lao's books will be included in our publishing house's key publishing projects this year. Get ready, we are going to compete with them next." .”

"Hey!" Zhou Bo stood up excitedly.

President Guo added: "How is your relationship with Mr. Gao? When will we invite him to come to our unit to sit down, we will also contact the author to express our feelings."

Zhou Bo's heart was pounding. He still didn't know what kind of relationship Gao Yuan had, but seeing Lao Guo like this, he knew it was something special. He said: "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Dr. Gao Yuan... Gao... Mr. Gao I’m busy treating illnesses, so I may not have much time.”

"Oh." President Guo added, "Didn't we prepare a gift for the author? You go and prepare one, and we will take the initiative to chat with the author sometime."

Zhou Bogan laughed twice and said half-jokingly: "I still hope you can recover from your unruly behavior yesterday."

President Guo: "..."

The matter was settled, and the publication work began.

Half a year later, Gao Yuan's "Records of Gao Yuan's Experience in Treating Critical and Severe Diseases by Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner" was officially published.

What followed was overwhelming publicity, interviews, and reports.The publishing difficulties that they originally thought might arise were solved and everything went very smoothly. Therefore, Gao Yuan's book was quickly distributed across the country and caused a huge sensation.

At about the same time, Professor Wang Hongsheng's "Treatise on Traditional Chinese Medicine" was also officially published.

Professor Wang's network of connections is also very strong, especially in the southern region. After his vigorous promotion, sales have also increased rapidly, and his influence is quite large.

Publishers are afraid of subject matter, but booksellers like this kind of publicity.The two books were placed directly on the same platform, and the display sign hanging above them was "Two views of Chinese medicine, two fates of Chinese medicine."

This resulted in more buzz and better sales.

But Professor Wang Hongsheng and Gao Yuan were inevitably compared by the general public, and the two were roasted on the fire by booksellers.

But no matter what, Gao Yuan's fame came out.

After 50 years of obscurity in the countryside, Gao Yuan finally became famous at the age of 70.

……

"Hello, Professor Wang, welcome to our 'Healthy House' program. I see you are holding a book in your hand. What is it? Can you introduce it to our audience friends?" "Healthy House" is being played on TV. "Home" program, the guest in this episode is Professor Wang Hongsheng, and the book he brought is "A Different Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine", which he competed with Gao Yuan, so the old men in the clinic all looked at the TV.

Professor Wang is about fifty years old. He wears glasses and holds a book he just published. He speaks softly and looks polite. After introducing his book, he also talks about health care.

The host said: "Professor Wang just talked about a lot of health knowledge. I have also read your masterpiece carefully. You think that traditional Chinese medicine should give full play to its advantages in treating chronic diseases and recuperating the body, instead of competing with Western medicine in the field of emergency treatment of serious diseases. ?"

Wang Hongsheng nodded: "Yes, I still have the same view. No medicine is perfect, and the right way to develop is to make use of strengths and avoid weaknesses. Western medicine has a lot of medical equipment, what do we have? It's hard to even cure appendicitis, let alone When it comes to rescuing and treating critical illnesses, if Chinese medicine insists on competing in this area, then it is really overestimating its capabilities."

The host added: "Then have you read the book of another Chinese medicine practitioner published at about the same time as yours, called "Records of the Treatment of Critical and Serious Diseases by Gao Yuan, an Old Chinese Physician"."

Wang Hongsheng looked at the host and smiled slightly. He already knew this question. He had answered it many times: "I have read a little, but not much. First of all, I respect these people who have persisted in the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine for so many years. Old doctors, especially those who have been practicing medicine in rural areas."

"But, yes, I admire you, but if you keep emphasizing that all the critically ill patients discharged from major hospitals were brought back to life by him, that would be a bit too much. If there are only one or two cases, it's normal. If you don't use this as a publicity point, it's a bit too much. It is easy for so-called 'miracle doctors' to appear, and what Chinese medicine is most afraid of are these 'miracle doctors', which will destroy Chinese medicine."

In the clinic, several old guys looked at Gao Yuan.

The host on the TV didn't think it was lively enough, so he added: "Then you doubt the authenticity of this book?"

"Haha..." Wang Hongsheng smiled but did not answer.

Inside the clinic, a few old guys smiled immorally.Shen Congyun gloated: "Doctor Gao, Dr. Gao, you also have today, hahahaha..."

Zhao Huanzhang also couldn't help laughing.

Gao Yuanli didn't bother to pay attention to them.

The TV was still going on. When it ended, Professor Wang Hongsheng said: "Next, I will go to Guangzhou to attend the Zhongjing Academic Seminar and hold a book signing event there. Please support traditional Chinese medicine."

Shen Congyun raised his eyebrows and said, "Hey, Doctor Gao, I've already drawn a line, and I've given you the address. Go knock on the door and cause trouble."

Gao Yuan retorted: "I'll destroy your two sons first, okay?"

With one fatal word, Shen Congyun suddenly lost his temper.

Zhao Huanzhang said: "Doctor Gao, I think you should appear on TV more. You can't just let people talk endlessly."

Gao Yuan said: "After my book came out, the clinic was extremely busy. Patients from out of town kept coming for treatment. They were also on TV, and I didn't even have time to go to the toilet. Hey, it's strange. Is this person so free? After watching TV, he still has to go to meetings, he still has time to do book signings, and he still has to teach at the university, doesn’t he need to see a doctor?”

Zhao Huanzhang shook his head, how could he know.

At this time, a motorcycle rode outside the door: "Take today's newspaper. Doctor Gao Yuan, Doctor Gao Yuan, do you have your letter? Doctor Gao has written a lot recently."

Liu Sanquan came out to pick them up: "They are all letters from people asking for medical advice. I can't even read them."

The postman said: "This is different. It's a registered letter, sent from Guangzhou."

Liu Sanquan took the letter, looked at the signature, and said in surprise: "Zhongjing Academic Seminar Organizing Committee!"

Zhao Huanzhang and Shen Congyun immediately looked at Gao Yuan.
