Chapter 1523 Long story

The whole place fell silent immediately.

Although everyone already knew that the person sitting in the main seat was the protagonist of today's celebration banquet, Pi Yangyang, everyone still looked at him with admiration and remained absolutely silent.

"The person next to me is the protagonist of today's celebration banquet, Mr. Pi Yangyang Pi."

Lu Xiuran was a little excited. He pointed at Pi Yangyang beside him and introduced him loudly.

Pi Yangyang stood up slowly, smiled, glanced at the audience, and nodded slightly.

"The TCM exchange conference held by Country J was actually a long-planned challenge to the Chinese TCM community. Their original plan was to use this exchange conference to completely defeat our Chinese medical community, make us submit to their medical community, and acknowledge that they are the orthodox TCM practitioners and the strongest TCM practitioners!"

After a brief pause, Lu Xiuran spoke excitedly again.

At this moment, there was a small commotion in the venue.

Although this concept had already spread in the Chinese medical community, the traditional Chinese medicine practitioners present still felt a little angry when they heard Lu Xiuran mention it again.

"It's really outrageous. A country that relied on banditry to steal Chinese medicine is so arrogant..."

An octogenarian even shouted in anger.

Lu Xiuran cleared his throat, glanced at the whole audience with a burning gaze, and then said: "Fortunately, we have Mr. Pi. With his amazing medical skills, he defeated the number one Chinese medicine practitioner in J country, Yamaguchi Ioritake, and successfully defended the glory of our Chinese medicine community.

"So, today, under the call of Patriarch Li, a family of traditional Chinese medicine, we are holding this celebration banquet to celebrate Mr. Pi's triumphant return!"

As he spoke, Lu Xiuran's voice became more excited, and his eyes shone with light.

Applause broke out, echoing throughout the banquet hall.

"Good! Mr. Pi is awesome!"

"Mr. Pi is the pride of the Chinese medicine community. From now on, all of us in the Chinese medicine community should learn from Mr. Pi!"

"I believe that under the leadership of Mr. Pi, our Chinese medicine community will definitely develop better..."

There was constant applause and cheers, and many people shouted loudly from the bottom of their hearts.

After three full minutes, Lu Xiuran excitedly raised his hand and then pressed it, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"Before the banquet begins, I have one more thing to announce."

When everyone was quiet again, Lu Xiuran shouted excitedly.

Everyone's eyes turned over again, waiting for Lu Xiuran's announcement.

"I originally planned to invite Mr. Pi to serve as the president of the Chinese Medicine Association and the director of the Chinese Medicine Center. But Mr. Pi has his own career and cannot be tied down too much by the association and the Chinese Medicine Center. So, now on behalf of the Chinese Medicine Association and the Chinese Medicine Center, I announce that Mr. Pi will serve as the honorary president of the Chinese Medicine Association and the honorary director of the Chinese Medicine Center. In the future, when we need it, please take time out of your busy schedule to give us some pointers. What do you think?"

Lu Xiuran spoke in a loud voice and people at the scene immediately cheered.

Immediately afterwards, applause broke out again.

Pi Yangyang was not too surprised because Lu Xiuran had proposed that he be the honorary president when they were in Country J.

He didn't want to have too many ties, because the Yan Group was just starting out and he had too many things to do. He couldn't afford to spend too much time and energy on the association and the Chinese Medical Clinic.

Moreover, he was well aware that the association and the Chinese Medical Clinic mostly served some dignitaries and wealthy tycoons, and he was too lazy to deal with these people.

However, if he simply refused, it would seem that he was inhumane.

So he didn't say much, just nodded slightly to show that he agreed.

Lu Xiuran said excitedly: "Mr. Pi, can you say a few words too?"

Pi Yangyang quickly shook his head, "I won't say anything. Since you have already made the arrangements, I will respectfully obey your orders."

Lu Xiuran said: "Your casual words can be regarded as an encouragement to the Chinese traditional Chinese medicine community."

Pi Yangyang thought for a moment, took the microphone, and said, "Okay, I'll just say a few words."

Lu Xiuran quickly signaled for everyone to be quiet.

"I am deeply honored to be the honorary president and honorary curator of the Chinese Medicine Association and the Chinese Medicine Hall, thanks to President Lu. However, I am a lazy person, and I may make you dissatisfied with some things in the future. I would like to apologize to you in advance and ask for your forgiveness.

"The Chinese traditional medicine community does not respect a certain person, but a culture that has been passed down for thousands of years. This culture has always been something that Asia and even the whole world can only look up to. However, in modern times, our country has experienced too many hardships, and our cultural treasures have been targeted by some scoundrels, who have seized them by trickery and taken them for themselves.

"So much so that even tiny countries like Japan and South Korea dare to challenge China in TCM! But then again, the main reason why we have repeatedly lost ground in the field of TCM is that we are self-contained and too conservative. All TCM heritage is regarded as a treasure, and we are unwilling to communicate it, let alone pass it on to others, so that many precious materials, treatment methods and precious prescriptions have disappeared in the long river of history.

"And Japan, South Korea, and even some European countries attach great importance to traditional Chinese medicine and support it with all their national strength. In order to replace the Chinese traditional Chinese medicine heritage, they are unprecedentedly united, researching, developing, and progressing together. This is how we have today.

"Everyone, as the inheritors of Chinese traditional Chinese medicine, have you ever thought about how to ensure that the heritage of our ancestors can be passed on without omission?

"So, I think the significance of the association's existence is to let everyone put aside their prejudices, be honest with each other, and work together to promote the development of Chinese traditional Chinese medicine. If this can be achieved, it will be a great blessing for our Chinese traditional Chinese medicine community!"

This is the first time in Pi Yangyang's history that he has given such a long speech.

Everyone present seemed stunned.

Finally, Pi Yangyang said: "That's all I have to say. At the same time, I would like to thank Patriarch Li, President Lu and everyone else for their warm invitation. I will also do my best to contribute to the development of Chinese medicine."

Thirty seconds had passed since his voice fell, and the scene was still silent.

"it is good!"

Suddenly, Li Moheng shouted and led the applause.

All of a sudden, everyone seemed to react and cheered with thunderous applause.

Li Jinghan, who was sitting at the next table, looked at Pi Yangyang with starry eyes and didn't notice the distorted face of Ma Shangfeng beside her at all.

At this moment, Pi Yangyang was extremely tall in her mind.

Thinking back to what happened in Country J, she felt like it was just a dream.

If it weren’t for this man, I really can’t imagine what would have happened to me.

Moreover, she saw on the news a few days ago that nearly two hundred women were rescued from the sea and escorted to Bincheng.

Although the news did not say who rescued him or how he was rescued, Li Jinghan was very sure that it must have been Pi Yangyang who did it.

At that moment, she was so excited that she cried out loud.
