124 [The Acting School adds a newcomer]
Smart people are often more likely to get stuck in a stubborn manner, and they can't get out after getting in.
Nie Jun is usually lazy and casual, as if he doesn't care about everything, and reads blindly with a book on broken martial arts all day long. However, the central government issued a document to strengthen popular science and crack down on Qigong, which made Nie Jun unable to sleep all night. He was thinking about whether Qigong masters were really all liars.
There was a class the next day, and Nie Jun skipped the class and ran to the education TV station to wait for Gao Yu early in the morning.
Today, the first stop they want to interview is the "Shenghai Qigong Research Institute", an official institution, which has the qualification to be awarded as a "Master of Qigong" (this Qigong Research Institute still exists until Song Weiyang travels through time).
Nie Jun volunteered to be a servant who ran errands with his bags, followed the column team reporters and took pictures of the equipment in the Qigong Research Institute.
Director Li said to the camera: "Our research on qigong is based on science. We have used modern scientific instruments to test the 'external qi' with the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Shenghai College of Traditional Chinese Medicine to prove that the qigong qi has a material basis. This is a new topic to explore life sciences."
Gao Yu asked: "Recently, the central government issued a document requiring increased popular science efforts to crack down on folk pseudoscience. What do Director Li thinks about this?"
Director Li said: "Pseudoscience does not necessarily refer to qigong; qigong is not pseudoscience."
Gao Yu said: "But there are many so-called masters in society who cheat money under the guise of qigong."
Director Li said: "When a craze rises and reaches a certain level of heat, it often goes astray. The public will become blind and only pay attention to the appearance of qigong, but ignore the core of qigong. I firmly support the central government in cracking down on pseudoscience, and those scammers have ruined the reputation of qigong. At the same time, I suggest that beginners should go to formal institutions and accept teaching from qualified teachers, and not easily believe in the so-called qigong masters."
Gao Yu asked: "What suggestions and expectations do you have for the development of qigong?"
Director Li said: "I hope that the research and teaching of qigong can be on the right track. The situation is really too chaotic. Scammers are rampant, and mud and sand are all over the world. First of all, qigong has a long cultural heritage. While practicing qigong, we should learn more traditional culture and improve our moral cultivation; secondly, qigong should be combined with modern science. Our institute uses modern instruments to explore the mystery of qigong, and has also developed a set of physical therapy methods for electronic qigong, using current to stimulate acupoints to improve the internal circulation of the human body; thirdly, qigong should be internationalized. Since 1985, we have founded the "International Qigong Science Seminar", which has been held for several sessions so far and still has some influence abroad. A French young man hopes to stay with us to work, but unfortunately he failed the cultural exam and did not pass our postgraduate entrance examination, which is indeed a pity."
Gao Yu said: "Today, we are going to do a Qigong fight. Is Director Li willing to go with the program team?"
"Well," Director Li pondered for a few seconds, suddenly nodded, "Of course, it's a matter of unshirkable."
The Qigong masters who were robbed of business by "Master Han" did not find it. They probably all returned to their hometowns, or maybe they were transferred to other cities for development.
Nie Jun followed everyone to People's Park. He probably fell behind and waited until the critical moment before appearing.
Although Song Weiyang did not come, he gave Nie Jun a bad idea...
Gao Yu's anti-counterfeiting plan is relatively direct and formal. She deliberately induces Director Li of the Qigong Institute to go to People's Park to confront "Master Han" in person.
Master Han was bragging in the park. He smiled calmly with his hands in his arms: "You may have watched TV yesterday. On Miaofeng Mountain in the capital, there was a group of Qigong practicing with aluminum pots on their heads, saying it was an information pot and could receive cosmic energy and signals. Fakes, they were all fake. The TV station had exposed their scam. This morning, a fellow practitioner asked me, the TV said that the information pot was fake, so would the Qigong we practiced be fake? Then I would say publicly that the information pot was fake, but we were real. Practicing Qigong cannot go wrong, and one aluminum pot can receive energy? Joke! Energy needs to be absorbed bit by bit through the exercises, and there is no shortcut to say!"
While speaking, the disciple carried out several boxes of information water.
Master Han said: "Our information water is different. This is the spring water collected from Kunlun Mountain, which has innate spiritual energy! Information water comes from nature, not external objects, and can be used with peace of mind. Yesterday, many people bought information water, what is the effect?"
Someone in the crowd raised his hand and said, "I drank the message water and suddenly felt angry. It's so effective!"
"Yes, after drinking the information water, my whole body became hot and my whole body was filled with energy!"
"Master Han, can information water be wholesale? Can I buy the amount of information water for a year be 20% off?"
“…”
Master Han raised his hand to signal everyone to quiet: "The amount of information water is limited and cannot be wholesale, until it is sold out. Some practitioners may not know much about the martial arts. I specially printed a set of books, which recorded the most complete cultivation method. One book costs only 15 yuan, and you can buy whatever you need!"
Master Han does not charge tuition fees and only sells peripheral products.
Just as everyone was paying for money, Gao Yu suddenly walked inside and smiled and said, "Hello Master Han, I am Gao Yu, a reporter from Shenghai Education Station. I heard that you have cured several patients with Qigong and came here to interview me."
When he heard that it was a reporter from the TV station, Master Han was not only not panicked, but was overjoyed because several Qigong masters were famous through TV stations, and he finally waited for today!
"Well, hello, reporter Gao!" Master Han had a high popularity and nodded calmly.
Gao Yu also said: "I also invited Director Li of Shenghai Qigong Research Institute. Director Li is also a qigong expert. They are an official institution and have the right to grant a master's degree in Qigong."
Master Han was finally a little panicked. Although he used qigong to cheat, he did not dare to say that others were fake. Now that the official qigong expert came, he suddenly felt embarrassed that Li Gui met Li Kui, and he smiled reluctantly and said, "Hello, Director Li, welcome to exchange qigong."
"What kind of skills are you practicing?" Director Li asked.
Master Han said: "Health-keeping and Qigong."
Director Li asked again: "Can your Qigong cure diseases?"
Master Han said: "Long-term practice can keep health-promoting and enhancing qi."
Director Li said: "I'm asking, can you use qigong to treat people's illnesses?"
"Yes." Master Han said with a tough bullet.
Director Li suddenly laughed: "We can study all the instruments to test the intensity of Qigong. Otherwise, Master Han will go back with me to test it? If the test passes, I promise to send you a certificate."
"Well," Master Han was really scared. "The Qigong I practiced is a traditional martial art, and the current scientific instruments cannot be measured."
At this moment, Nie Jun suddenly came out of nowhere and rushed to Master Han, saying with tears in his mouth: "Master Han, help me. The doctor said I have leukemia and a terminal illness! I am still young and don't even have a girlfriend. I want to live a few more years!"
Gao Yu and the camera reporter looked at Nie Jun foolishly, not knowing what to say.
Director Li looked at Gao Yu, as if he was asking a question with his eyes: Isn’t this person from your TV station?
A disciple recognized Nie Jun and shouted, "Master, he came to make trouble yesterday!"
Nie Jun cried and said, "Master Han, I didn't make trouble yesterday. I originally wanted to ask you to treat my illness, but my friend said you were a liar and insisted on pulling me away. I don't believe them, I only believe in Master Han, please help me treat my illness!"
"Uh...this is that," Master Han hesitated, "I haven't treated leukemia yet, so I need to study it first."
When Nie Jun went out, he borrowed several thousand yuan from Zhou Zhengyu and took it out and said, "Master Han, this is 5,000 yuan. When the disease is cured, I will give you another 200,000 yuan! I can write an IOU. My dad is the boss of a big company. We are not short of money, just ask you to help you!"
Master Han’s eyes lit up when he saw the 5,000 yuan. He heard that there was still 200,000 yuan. He immediately became beautiful and nodded and said, “Practicing Qigong is to benefit sentient beings. Get up first, I will use Qigong to check you.”
"Thank you, Master!" Nie Jun burst into tears and laughed.
The camera reporter could not figure out the situation and asked in a low voice: "Sister Gao, does he really have leukemia?"
"What do you think?" Gao Yu couldn't help rolling his eyes and thought to himself: No one around Dr. Ma can believe it, and each one can act more than the other.
Chapter completed!
