Introduction to traditional Chinese medicine culture (Chen Liji's traditional Chinese Medicine Culture)

Applicant: Chen Liji pharmaceutical factory, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province

Traditional Chinese medicine is the study of human life and human health formed in ancient Chinese society. It is not only a simple accumulation of one prescription, one medicine, one skill, but also a knowledge system related to human life and health. This knowledge system has a profound traditional cultural background. With its unique philosophical thinking, systematic basic theory, rich scientific connotation and distinctive humanistic color, it stands in the world of medicine. It is not only one of the activation forms of Chinese traditional culture, but also a huge space for the development of traditional culture. For example, the way of tranquility and truth, the treatment rule of Chong and the mean, the life concept of pure heart, the medical principle of people-oriented, and the industry standard of integrity and no deception are always implemented in all aspects of the theory and practice of traditional Chinese medicine. They have become the soul of all figures, works, literature and undertakings of traditional Chinese medicine, as well as the proud fine tradition and dedication of today's traditional Chinese medicine enterprises Spirit.

Chen Liji, as a "time-honored brand in China", is one of the earliest pharmaceutical enterprises in China. The so-called "Tongrentang in the north, Huqingyutang in the East and Chen Liji in the South" make Chen Liji one of the three major Chinese medicine brands in the late Qing Dynasty.

The core of Chen Li Ji's traditional Chinese medicine culture is the cultural tradition of "honesty based, one heart to help the world". Chen Liji was founded by a businessman surnamed Chen and a doctor surnamed Li. Chen and Li each chose one word to show that they would always cooperate and work together to help the world. In line with the tenet of "although the craft is complicated, its work will not be reduced, and although the taste is many, its material will not be reduced", Chen Liji pharmaceutical strives for precision, and the selection of materials must be superior. For hundreds of years, Chen Li Ji has made it a rule that anyone who passes by a store will be given medicine to help him if he faints or gets hurt.

Chen Liji successfully mixed beeswax with wood wax to make wax shell which is neither soft nor hard, and used to wrap pills, which brought great innovation in the field of pharmaceutical preparations. At the beginning of making wax balls, Chen Li Ji also created a unique storage method of tangerine peel. Nowadays, with a long history and the impact of Western medicine, the inheritance of Chen Liji's traditional Chinese medicine culture has been affected.
