#Open Your Eyes #Anyone who knows a little about Chinese medicine should have heard of the name of "Beixie, Nanxiangya", just like "Beiqiaofeng, Nan Murong", which is talked about. Xiehe and Xiangya, one north and one south, once represented the two peaks of Chinese Western medicine. This article briefly describes the two great meritorious figures of Xiangya Medical College, the eternal principals, Yan Fuqing and Zhang Xiaoqian, as a memorial.

Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University

First, let's talk about President Yan Fuqing. In 1910, Yan Fuqing returned to China after graduating from Yale University School of Medicine and worked as a doctor at The Yale Hospital in Hunan, founded by Yale graduates," which is actually a transliteration of "Yale", taken from the Analects of "Ziso Yayan, Poetry and Book Ceremony". Two years later, Tan Yanmin, the governor of Hunan Province, suffered from lobar pneumonia, and was finally diagnosed and cured by Yan Fuqing, who since then regarded Yan Fuqing as a savior. It was this opportunity that enabled Yan Fuqing to gain the support of Tan Yanmin and found the predecessor of Xiangya Medical College, Xiangya Medical College, and served as the first president. Yan Fuqing, a native of Shanghai, was not accustomed to Hunan cuisine and did not understand Hunan dialect, but he devoted all his enthusiasm to building the school until 1926.

In addition, he founded the Chinese Medical Association in 1915 and served as its first president. In October 1927, he established the Fourth School of Medicine of Sun Yat-sen University (now Shanghai Medical College of Fudan University) and served as its first dean. He has made great contributions to public health and medical education in the mainland.

Let's talk about Zhang Xiaoqian. In 1914, Zhang Xiaoqian was admitted to the Xiangya Medical College (now the Xiangya Medical College of Central South University) and studied tirelessly and diligently in the hall of medicine. In 1921, he graduated with the first place in both academic and thesis, and received a doctorate from the Connecticut Medical College. After returning to China, he served as a teaching assistant and chief resident physician of Xiangya Medical College. In 1937, when the "July Seventh" Incident was in the face of national difficulties, Zhang Xiaoqian was appointed in danger and served as the dean of Xiangya Medical College in the crisis. In 1931, Xiangya Medical College was renamed the private Xiangya Medical College, and in 1940 it was renamed the National Xiangya Medical College)

In the summer of 1938, Changsha was in a hurry. In order to keep the school, Zhang Xiaoqian, the principal at the time, worked tirelessly and ran around. At first, it was decided to move to Guangxi, but Guangxi proposed that xiangya should stay in Guangxi after the victory of the War of Resistance. Principal Zhang thought it was inappropriate and decided to move west to Guiyang. The school's location in Guiyang was also named "Xiangya Village", which has been preserved to this day, telling a story of the past that can be sung and wept.

In the winter of 1944, the "Qiannan Incident" brought the Japanese army to Dushan County, Guizhou, so the Xiangya Medical College had to move to Chongqing. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, in July 1947, the school moved back to Changsha, Hunan Province, and Zhang Xiaoqian remained the dean of Xiangya Medical College until 1948. Under extremely difficult conditions, he retained and developed Xiangya, which was not easy and rare.
