There is no master's hat, no master's gown, and when there are still 14 years before the Republic promulgated the "Notice on Recommending the Use of Degree Gowns", Shen Tiejun ended his master's study life and touched Professor Lu's heart with his thesis "A Preliminary Study on the Application of Chinese Characters in Computers".

Li Guiju's evaluation is: "You are becoming more and more unprofessional. ”

Professor Lan's assessment is: "Those who do not do their jobs are becoming more and more justified. ”

Professor Lu's evaluation was: "Your paper is so bold that I can't refuse it. ”

If Shen Tiejun's research in his graduate studies outside the sheep can still be related to English, but the thesis he used to apply for Professor Lu's doctoral qualification cannot be related to English, so he got such an evaluation from Li Guiju and Professor Lan, which can be regarded as a euphemism for selling dog meat with a sheep's head.

As a big man in linguistics and applied linguistics, Professor Lu can naturally see Shen Tiejun's ambition from this paper of more than 1,000 words and less than 2,000 words: "English, composed of 26 letters, is a logical and constructive language, and the most important thing is simple abstraction, while Chinese characters still retain descriptive pictographic features.

In the conference room of the Institute of Linguistics and Applied Linguistics, facing the many college bigwigs with different expressions in front of him, Shen Tiejun said: "Some time ago, I checked the information in the library and saw an article about using computers to prove the four-color theorem in the sixties.

As a matter of public opinion in the field of geography, it is said that it is enough to draw a map with four colors, but there is no corresponding proof, so someone uses a computer to calculate and complete the verification in a few hours, and if it depends on manpower, it will take generations of people, one after another. ”

"But nowadays, Chinese characters don't play much of a role in computers. ”

The person who spoke raised his hand, Shen Tiejun swept his eyes, and found that it was Bai Qiuzhong, the director of the political and educational office of the college, and a burst of anger suddenly rose in his heart, his eyes swept over Professor Lu, who was frowning, and said: "Director Bai, if all the existing computers display Chinese characters, you say that it will not play a big role in all the teachers and teachers here, as well as all the Chinese people who use computers?"

Bai Qiuzhong, who was sitting in the penultimate row, was stunned, facing the old people looking back in the first few rows, the horse's face instantly turned red, including himself, but he had tried the computer that was coming, and the things displayed on it seemed to be in English, but it was not plausible, and he immediately shook his head quickly: "No, I didn't mean that, you want the computer to display all the Chinese characters? But the difficulties encountered by Chinese characters on the electronic computer are like an aging patient who is about to die." ”

Shen Tiejun smiled, spread his hands and continued: "I know that some people are hindered by his own cognition, saying that the computer is the gravedigger of square Chinese characters, and also the midwife of Chinese pinyin characters, for the first point, I don't agree with his concept, because in my opinion, the person who said this means that he is a primary school student in the computer field!"

"Buzz—"

Shen Tiejun's voice was not loud, but it exploded like a bomb in the conference room, which immediately caused a burst of discussion, and the blood red on Bai Qiuzhong's face disappeared instantly, first ecstatic and then full of positive faces: "You said that the members of the school department are elementary school students? This is his article published in "Language Modernization"!"

"Director Bai, speak completely, what I said before was that the person who said this is still a primary school student in the computer field!"

After Shen Tiejun finished speaking, without waiting for Bai Qiuzhong to speak, he said quickly: "Even people who have the most basic understanding of computers know that the underlying program of computers is composed of 0 and 1, whether it is the mainstream Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code in the world, that is, BASIC and PASCAL.

Or the C language, which was developed in the last decade, they all translate the input signal into 0 and 1 that can be recognized by the computer, and what I explored in this paper is not this kind of translation software that can be translated into machine language, but simply displays fixed affixes as Chinese characters!"

"And the second point that this member of the school committee said, I very much agree with his point of view. ”

Shen Tiejun didn't wait for Bai Qiuzhong, who was full of confusion, to come back to his senses, and continued to speak: "Throughout the 5,000-year history of civilization in our country, the Chinese characters used by people now are from the pottery, oracle bones, bell and ding (inscriptions) big seals, small seals, official scripts, cursive scripts, regular scripts, line scripts, etc., after 5,000 years of evolution, although complex but simple, can be classified into five stages: sound, shape, image, mathematics, and reason, until the simplified Chinese characters.

Without the help of Hanyu Pinyin, how could the illiteracy rate before the founding of the People's Republic of China be reduced from 90% to 38.1% in the 64 census?

In this regard, some people are unashamed to say that Chinese characters are a product of the feudal era, and advocate the abolition of Chinese characters! If Chinese characters are not destroyed, our country will perish! If Chinese characters are not destroyed, there will be no hope for a new culture! By now, it has become the old Song Dynasty style, which is really ugly.

Hanyu Pinyin is the midwife of Chinese characters, because this is our tool and means to help people understand Chinese characters, why when we are faced with the new thing of computers, as a member of the Academy of Sciences of a country, do not encourage latecomers to study technology and solve the problem of Chinese characters in the input, but first deny their own cultural roots?

When I entered the school, there was a leader in the ministry who said through some words on my entrance re-examination results that I was anti-nationalist and-"

"Iron Army!"

Li Guiju stood up suddenly, and directly interrupted Shen Tiejun, and his previously graceful face turned stern: "This is your graduation seminar and doctoral examination thesis defense, don't say something else, those are useless." ”

Bai Qiuzhong, who had already been sluggish, came back to his senses, and his face was full of shock: "You, you said that he admired foreign flattery?"

"Director Bai, this is what you said, I didn't say that!"

was interrupted by Li Guiju, Shen Tiejun knew that he couldn't continue to talk about that topic, Rao was angry and wanted to jump to his feet and scold, but he couldn't live up to Li Guiju's hard work, he looked at Bai Qiuzhong coldly, and immediately changed his words: "Professor Zhou, honorary director, chief engineer, and researcher of the Modu Instrument and Meter Research Institute, all teachers and leaders, please allow me to call him so, because he was isolated in the movement of that year six years ago, not six years ago, when he was isolated in the movement that year, he was thinking about how to solve the problem of inputting Chinese characters into the computer.

After more than ten years of research, Professor Zhou overcame this problem the year before last, when I was admitted to Yangwai to begin graduate studies, and applied it to the Magic City Telephone Bureau that year, opening the door to the establishment of Chinese computer networks and databases, and cooperating with companies in the United States and Germany related countries, and was affirmed by relevant experts in these countries, becoming an internationally renowned Chinese character information processing expert——"

"Buzz—"

The conference room sounded again with a lot of discussions, and the corner of Principal Zhu, who was sitting in the front row, twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at the secretary next to him, and found that surprise flashed in his eyes, the two of them only knew that this product had a high IQ and EQ, after all, they could help the school bring in Hong Kong businessmen, and others might be skeptical of this possibility, but the two top bosses outside the sheep could still see through his little tricks at a glance.

Now I have seen the lip service of this product - this is to say that a certain person is blind, deaf, and ignorant for his own sake, and even less aware of it!

It's just that this thing is accusing a school boss, although that person's words are a little excessive, but the majesty of the department boss is not easy to touch, fortunately, he dares to say it in front of so many people, as long as the truth of Professor Zhou is verified, most people's mouths can be blocked, even if that person knows, he can only hold back.

Professor Lu was also a little distracted, Shen Tiejun was the first person to apply for his doctoral examination, and originally promised Professor Lan to still see that the learning momentum of this product was good, and the occasional burst of ideas had a very high vision, and even more because he had brought Hong Kong capital to the school, so he made a decision in his heart to let him write a thesis like a master's degree in Yangwai.

In fact, before seeing the paper, Professor Lu had already made a decision in his heart, and now all the people outside the sheep, as long as they are in the inner circle, know what this product has brought to the school, so it is acceptable to send him a doctoral student, as long as this product can get a paper that can be seen in the past, presumably the school will not reject this outrageously young doctor.

But it wasn't until he got the paper that Professor Lu knew that his heart was so big, and the buzzing discussion gradually disappeared, until it fell silent, and he said, "How sure are you that the idea of this paper will be realized?"

Shen Tiejun said in his heart that I was not sure at all, I just wanted to stay in school with a doctoral student and see if Zhou Ying could be admitted to university this year.

But to be honest, the consequences are that I am afraid that I will be stunned on the spot, and the consequences are serious, Shen Tiejun had to speak: "I just have a preliminary idea, because I am still teaching myself programming, although I have not been exposed to programming design, but I know that this is not a problem that I can solve alone——"
