*********************************************************************

American democracy was learned from France, and then the French also needed to learn democracy from Americans. The one who introduced American democracy to the French was this French youth named Tocqueville. France has Tocqueville, and China has Tocqueville?

Tocqueville should not be a person's name, but a symbol. It symbolizes that no matter how great a country and nation is, there is a great necessity to learn from other countries and nations. Or to be more precise: no matter how great a nation has a tradition, it can still learn from other nations in this tradition that can enrich and update the essence of this tradition.

"...The revolution does not happen because people are getting worse and worse. The most common situation is that people who have always endured the most unbearable laws and rule will abandon it once the pressure is reduced. For a bad government, the most dangerous moment is usually the moment when it begins reform. People patiently endure suffering, thinking that it is inevitable, but once someone makes an idea to abolish suffering, he becomes unbearable. When suffering is reduced, people feel more sensitive about suffering..."

"... After the revolution, it seems that only the people have benefited from the faults and mistakes of all their masters. In fact, even if they truly break free from the rule of their masters, they cannot escape the shackles of the wrong ideas, sins, and bad tendencies that the master instilled in them or allowed them to absorb..."

"...The bravery of the revolutionaries has developed to madness. They are used to anything new, and they are not despised by any caution. They must not be considered as temporary, isolated, short-lived creations. They have since become a race, scattered in all civilized areas on the earth, and have continued for generations, maintaining the same appearance, the same passion, the same characteristics everywhere..."

During Tocqueville's lifetime, his works were published in the thirteenth edition in French, and after his death, they were released to the 17th edition. There were two complete collections. Later, there were translations of ten texts such as English, German, Dutch, Hungary, Italian, Danish, Russian, Spanish, Sweden, Serbia, etc., and there were more than one translation and more than one publication in some countries. There were more than 60 English versions in the UK and the United States.

In the 14-15th year of Meiji in Japan (1882-1883), Ryuki Hiratsuka translated the English translation volume from volume 1 under the title of "The Origin of the Freedom". As for the Chinese translation, it was not until 1968 that Qin Xiuming and others translated and published it in Hong Kong Today World Club, but this translation is not a complete translation, and all comments have been deleted.

Therefore, when the words translated by Chen Wenqiang were heard in Zou Rong's ears, they were flowing from his pen, bringing him a new feeling, a thorough and enlightened understanding from the outside to the inside.

Tocqueville's insightful insight listed a large amount of information collected. Especially when the French Revolution collapsed, it did not bring about the expected results of the revolution, which led to the openness of the conflict between the rulings and the people, social unrest and violent and bloody movements, which shocked Zou Rong a lot.

"I am not a professional translator, and fallacies are inevitable." Chen Wenqiang put down the book and said to himself: "But the general idea should not be wrong. I think it is relatively easy to inspire the enthusiasm for revolution in the present when the national crisis is deep, but there are almost no theorists like Tocqueville who can think calmly and have a thorough insight. For example, the French Revolution was originally intended to pursue freedom, equality, and democracy. Although the emperor was sent to the guillotine, the result was full of violence and terror, and ended with dictatorship, which was almost a tragedy."

Zou Rong thought for a while and said, "Since it is a revolution, how can there be someone who succeeds without bleeding? I have always been ambitious to learn from Mr. Tan, and would rather sacrifice than retreat ashamed. How can a real man not have the courage to take responsibility?"

Chen Wenqiang shook his head and said, "You are pedantic. You don't want to die under the Qing Dynasty butcher's knife. Is it a real man's spirit? You are killed by the neck. Only those who feel that you deserve the sin and die more will be like this. Do you feel guilty or should you be judged?"

"The revolution is not guilty." Zou Rong replied straightforwardly.

"Isn't that all." Chen Wenqiang spread his hands and said, "Only by keeping a useful body can you do great things. Why is this principle so difficult to understand? He is ashamed to retreat at any time and takes responsibility at any time. Do revolutionaries in China have to write words on his forehead, and do foreigners come back to surrender? It is inevitable that sacrifice is always valuable! If your mind turns around, then do as I say. "The Revolutionary Army" only signs a pseudonym and publishes and publishes, and I will arrange it."

Zou Rong thought about it, nodded helplessly, and said, "Okay, let's do as Brother Chen wants."

"Put the book away first, I will tell you orally, and you can write a letter for me in Japanese." Chen Wenqiang saw that Zou Rong was convinced, so he changed the subject.

The drug has been developed, but it has encountered difficulties in verification. What is possible to change the dilemma is that the pathogen syphilis, Treponema, was discovered. At the same time, Japanese bacterologist Thomasaro Qin found a way to infect rabbits with Treponema of Syphilis.

Hopefully, as long as Qin Zuobaro can apply for the job or help verify whether these dozen derivatives are effective, the new drugs can be selected from them.

Of course, Chen Wenqiang was mentally prepared to be rejected. If that were the case, he would have to take the last step and test the medicine with people. According to the situation at that time, not to mention China, there were no special legal norms for clinical trials in the world. Therefore, in the name of free treatment, the tester could be found.

It sounds cruel and inhumane, but it is inevitable when the new medicine is launched. Even in later generations, with the provision that "medical research can only be carried out when the subjects can benefit from the results of the research", many clinical trials do not respect and even violate the subject's right to informed consent, and even conceal the risks of drug consent, unclear explanations or only verbal informed consent is achieved. Every year, during or after the clinical trial of new medicines, the number of deaths worldwide is over 1,000.

For those who have terminal illnesses or are dying of illness, there is a glimmer of hope and I don’t want to let go. For consideration of the toxic side effects of the drug, most of them will be placed in a secondary position. If cured, pick it up, and if it cannot be cured, it should be accepted. This idea should be a normal thing.
