Chapter 317: The Creator
"The old sailor Singleton lived on board all his life, and with the Narcissus in the storm, he never flinched or feared, as if he were an indestructible giant, and of course he was only a man, even in Conrad's writing, he could not escape the powerlessness and doomed failure of the tiny human beings in the face of the forces of nature, and he died.
It's just that when he died, he finally realized that when he was old, he was going to fail! His failure was not considered to be the failure of his own will, but to the aging of his greatest tool, the body, that is, this tool, which led to his ultimate failure. He still wants to continue to fight, although the final result is still failure, this is the will of man.
Doesn't he know that he will grow old? He doesn't know that the strength of the individual cannot overcome nature? No, in the face of nature, all people will have the perception of being small and invincible, especially the sailors who sail in the waves, on the one hand, they are afraid of the fear brought by natural phenomena, and on the other hand, they have to face it, and even overcome it.
This kind of spirit of knowing that we will fail, but facing difficulties, conveys the strength of people and the greatness of will, and brings people the feeling that it is no longer miserable, let alone depressed, but tragic and exciting! We will all die, we will all have a coffin, we will all leave something in this world, the difference is only big or small-"
The crisp sound echoed in the hall, as Tong Min's voice disappeared, Shen Tiejun couldn't bear her fiery gaze, he understood a little, but he hoped that it wasn't his own way, the character of Singleton knew that there would be a day when he fell, but he still chose to stay on the Narcissus until that day came, the moment he was knocked down by the storm!
"βI'm going to be paranoid for you, for a lifetime, for a lifetime!"
The former sonorous voice came from his memory, Shen Tiejun didn't know whether to open his mouth and refuse directly, but he was afraid that he would be amorous, everyone was now discussing her thesis topic, not the dance party where the first kiss was stolen by a stupid woman, but she seemed to be metaphorically: "Although Conrad is a tragedy, what he wants to express is hope, when you believe." β
Using tragedy to talk about hope, Shen Damei doesn't know how to describe this kind of despair, even tragedy is hope, this is definitely not the work of contemporary writers: "What are you talking about?"
Joseph Theodore Conrad Korzenowski, a very important writer in the history of English literature, Lao She praised him as "the greatest creator of the realm and personality of modern times". β
Shen Tiejun then said that he had considered this one when he chose the topic for his graduation thesis at that time, so he was relatively familiar, of course, not as good as William Gelding, who had not won the Nobel Prize at this time, and it was almost the same in terms of current literary status.
Shen Damei obviously hasn't heard of this, and Shen Tiejun has not done the consciousness of popular science, the reason why it is said to be enlightenment is that she was reminded by the words she said to discuss with Xiao Wu before, and on the surface, she said that she wanted to discuss with Shen Tielin, implying that she had not discussed with her?
Thinking of his unhappiness at being pointed out, Shen Tiejun also remembered a report: "Township Chief A took a blind attitude in the face of the flood forecast, and Township Chief B led the villagers to dig ditches and dredge the river. When the flood came, Township A was severely affected, while Township B survived the flood peak safely. As a result, Township Mayor A was promoted to deputy mayor after being reported as a typical township mayor because he led the villagers to fight on the front line of flood fightingββ"
Shen Tielin has grown up, and the girls of this age in their previous lives have already begun to resist, Shen Tiejun decided to put his mind on Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi, and sat with Tong Min for a while, got up and prepared to go to work: "Tong Min, Catheri, I still have to go to work, you continue to play at home-"
There are friends from afar, it should be a good idea, Shen Tiejun's mind is full of Tong Min's slender figure, and he added the throttle all the way into the ministry, Zhuo Yacai carried a good kettle into the office, and quickly opened his mouth after seeing him: "Director Tiejun, just now a call from the Academy of Social Sciences came to you, saying that if you are free, call back there." β
The reason why he came to work in advance, Shen Tiejun didn't know how to face Tong Min's gaze, Zhou Ying had already given up, and a marriage without children was just like that, and he was ready to maintain this ambiguous relationship with Chu Dazhao, but he really wanted to find another one outside of her - this touched his moral bottom line.
On the surface, Shen Tiejun wears all kinds of halos, he belongs to a positive banner character, and he feels good about himself - we have seen great health care in our previous life, what kind of girl has not seen it, it has also been tested by Douyin and the live broadcast network, until Tong Min appeared in front of him.
Thinking back to the tall ponytail and slender figure, Shen Tiejun picked it up in front of the phone, looked at Zhuo Ya who was smiling and smiling in front of him, because of the dimples on his blushing face, Tong Min's dress flashed in his mind, and his eyes froze on his red face.
Zhuoya has short ear-length hair, revealing delicate earlobes and a snow-white neck, and is wearing a really good short-sleeved shirt on her upper body, which can be seen from the pleats on it, this should be newly bought, but it seems that the number is bigger, and she is a little fat on her body, and she is wearing a wide khaki trousers on her lower body, and she is stepping on a pair of small black leather shoes, and her snow-white hands are stirred together between her lower abdomen.
"Hello, this is the office of the Institute of Language Applications, Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciencesβ"
Looking Zhuo Ya's clothes up and down, it wasn't until a voice came from the phone that Shen Tiejun came to his senses and looked at Meng Lang like this, turned his head and listened to the voice inside was very unfamiliar, so he didn't bother to guess: "Hello, is Professor Lu here? I'm Shen Tiejun, someone was looking for me before?"
ββββ
The voice on the phone disappeared instantly, Shen Tiejun took the microphone and looked at it, and listened to it in his ear again, just when he thought the phone was broken, a voice came from the other side: "Little senior brother, I'm Deng Bin, Professor Lu went to class, two professors from the Institute of Archaeology came over this morning, asked for your address and leftββ"
There is an archaeological institute in the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and it is still strong, much stronger than the language application major that Professor Lu is responsible for, but the school has not yet been built, and now the department and teaching are placed in the eleventh middle school, together with the language application major, Shen Tiejun listened to the movement on the other side, and said, "They didn't say anything?"
"No~ In addition, my Hanka research has been with the Institute of Electronics of the Academy of Sciences-"
Deng Bin's voice was full of excitement, but Shen Tiejun didn't have the heart to pay attention to the voice coming from the microphone, he remembered what he felt before: Tong Min's dress today is not like what girls can have at this time, there are no braids for girls, no perms and short hair for women, but a tall black and shiny ponytail!
Shen Tiejun didn't think that the ponytail did not appear at this time, as a doctoral student in liberal arts, as far as he knew, as early as the period before the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a ponytail in the land of China, and it also appeared in the earliest poetry collection "Book of Songs": "There is a lesbian car, Yan Ru Shunhua."
Will soar, horsetail swaying.
Bimei Meng Jiang, Xun Mei and Both.
There are female peers, Yan Ru Shunying.
Will soar, horsetail wagged.
Bimei Meng Jiang, Deyin does not forget. β
Swaying and swaying, the unknown young man fell in love with the Jiang family and daughter, looked at her every move and smiled intently, the ponytail behind his head swayed with the bumps of the wheel, and jumped and soared with her slender steps, like the rhythm in the poem, which was sung by the young man into a poem, and it has been passed down through the ages-
There may have been before the founding of the People's Republic of China, but since the establishment of the Republic, the hairstyles of the girls are almost a twisted braid carved out of a mold, and most of the women have short hair that reaches the ears, and even the perm also appeared on a large scale after the release of "Lushan Love".
And Tong Min's ponytail appeared in 1981, and Shen Tiejun felt a chill behind his spine: "That, Zhuoya, I'm in a bit of a hurry to go back, if Director Chu Jikui asks, you can help me ask for leave, oh, forget it, I'll go to the office to sign an early departure." β
Shen Tiejun's words made Zhuoya's little face a little white, and he helped the leader ask for leave for the leader, which was a super difficult job, but fortunately, Shen Tiejun woke up and realized that this was a problem for others, so he quickly went to the office and marked an early departure on the sign-in book.
It is said that he doesn't have to do this, there are still five minutes before work, and he will be in the director's office, and he will just say hello to the secretariat directly, but he is self-aware, what others do has nothing to do with him, maybe there is nothing wrong with others doing this, and there will be problems if he does this?
Shen Tiejun's mind was frightened by what he thought of, and he went out in a panic and pushed out the little iron donkey, he hadn't asked Tong Min for the address yet, if he left, he wouldn't know when he would see it next time, so he got on the road and put up the accelerator, and walked away suddenly.
Shen Tiejun's worries soon became a reality, and when he entered the house, Wang Le was cooking in the kitchen, and Lin Yang was picking vegetables next to him, it seemed that the two of them were not mixed with food outside, and after seeing him appear, he opened his mouth: "Didn't you go to work?"
"That friend of mine is gone?"
Shen Damei, who heard the movement outside, came out of the hall, Shen Tiejun looked behind her, and sure enough, there was no figure, and the old man Li opened his mouth at the door of the corridor leading to the backyard: "Tiejun, I'll talk to you about something." β
People can't see it, Shen Tiejun's mood calmed down, what he thought before was a little scary, people have a habit of wearing clothes, especially after having money, they want to wear the clothes they wear, for example, he began to pack up his clothes, which is to keep up with the European and American styles of the thirties and forties, this is what outsiders think, the real reason is that he watched a certain American drama in his previous life - put it on Tong Min, she can't always be on par with the Jiang family and daughter in the Book of Poetry, right?
With doubts in his heart, Shen Tiejun felt that Tong Min was even more suspicious, he was admitted to graduate school because he had the memory of his previous life, and this sister, my sister was directly admitted to graduate school from her freshman year, so the question is, how can I be admitted to graduate school from my freshman year under normal circumstances?
Unless it is a prodigy-level student, but this kind of prodigy-level student bully should also have an omen, such as being extremely intelligent since childhood, and being able to sing songs at the age of three and poetry at the age of five.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the possibility of a noble son from a poor family is not ruled out, Shen Tiejun walked a few steps to the old man Li, and the reason why the archaeological research institute that has no head and tail today is afraid that it will fall on this person: "You went to find the person in the big courtyard?"
"You-I was going to talk to you about this. β
Old man Li said that his face changed, and he took out a booklet from his pocket, which was the booklet of the auction house to promote the blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty, and said: "I took this two days ago, went to find someone to ask, and I was sure that it was not unearthed in our country, and there were no signs and reports that it was found at which kiln site, and now it seems that it is very likely to be the situation you said, the shipwreck over there in the South China Sea was excavated and brought out." β
Old man Li looked a little apprehensive after speaking, Shen Tiejun said that he could hand it over to the country if necessary, but according to his lifelong experience, people will change, especially with the change of people's status, the risk of breaking their word and getting fat is getting bigger and bigger, and he also looked at Shen Tiejun with concern after speaking.
"What are you looking at me with that look?"
Shen Tiejun was taken aback by Tong Min's possible identity before, and at this time, he looked at everyone as if he was a suspect, raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you have a QQ number?"
Old man Li was stunned when he was asked, and his face was full of question marks: "Qwhat? QQ number?
"One of the identity numbers, some of them are made up of foreign letters, and I guess you don't have any. β
Shen Tiejun shook his head, these days and months people don't even have ID cards, so everyone who wanders around has to take a letter of introduction similar to that of the Ming Dynasty, and now it is certain that the two old men have asked the person in the big courtyard, and they feel that the professor of the Institute of Archaeology has come to find it today, and it should be such a thing.
Shen Tiejun's original idea was to let this goods go and shoot a few batches of porcelain back, and then find the boss of the Institute of Archaeology of the Academy of Social Sciences to confirm that if it really belonged to the wreck of the South China Sea, then he had to start first.
Not long after the country was reopened, with the end of the chaos, the attention to the domestic monuments and cultural relics was put on the agenda, since the New Year, there are new documents issued almost every month, in January is the "report on strengthening the work of cultural relics", in February is the "notice on freezing the western copper Buddha and ritual utensils stored in various places", in March it is "on conscientiously doing a good job in the safety of cultural relics and historic sites, landscape and garden tours", and in April it is simply to hold a training symposium on the cadres of the cultural relics museum.
However, in the face of a huge number of historic museums in China, the country's attention is still a drop in the bucket, not to mention the clanging noise of financial poverty, just look at the big courtyard next door on the street at the door, and the grass grows on the glazed tiles that have been in disrepair for a long time.
If it weren't for the sign hanging on it, if you look at the past from a distance, how to see how it is treated like a barren mountain and wild temple, not to mention the preservation of the various cultural relics inside, otherwise Shen Tiejun would not have taken over the Sancai Chapter from Jin Canhe, and it could be preserved very well in his hands.
At the very least, he wouldn't let anyone borrow it to play with, and then turned around and said with a face that he lost it and left it to the museum staff, which was angry and could only hold it, but Shen Tiejun felt that no one dared to ask him to borrow this thing, because he didn't.
