Now Master Shen's fame can be said to have risen explosively, and in several neighboring cities of Lingxi City, Master Shen's name can be heard from time to time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
But for other cities, no matter how powerful Master Shen is, he is just a master in the city next door.
When some people go to check Master Shen's information with great interest, they will find that the rules for making an appointment with Master Shen are particularly troublesome, and the first time they make an appointment, they need to make an appointment in person at Tianji Pavilion.
Moreover, the success rate of this appointment is too low, resulting in the fact that although Master Shen's popularity is high, most of them just treat it as entertainment news and chat in their spare time.
Except for the people in Lingxi City, basically few people will go all the way to find Master Shen to make an appointment, and not to mention the travel expenses, the loss of time, and the probability of making an appointment, compared with the trouble of making an appointment, they don't want to go even more.
At this time, Shen Qiong announced the following method of divination in advance, and the change of this method of divination made Shili Street completely change, and even many years later it was put on a certain economics textbook as a classic example.
"Starting from January 1, 26 shops in Shili Street will add a new lottery link, spend any amount, you can scratch the lottery, and the grand prize is a ticket for Master Shen's fortune telling. ”
"And cancel the rule that the first appointment requires the presence of the person, open the website to make an appointment, everyone (including the first appointment) can make an appointment directly on the website, and 5 to 10 lucky people will be selected every day, and these lucky people will be lucky enough to go to Tianji Pavilion to do fortune telling. ”
"As for the winning rate of the scratch lottery is tentatively set at 1 in 2,000, the follow-up will be adjusted accordingly according to the number of winners, and try to ensure that at least one person wins the lottery every day. ”
"Note: Any amount of money can be scratched once, and each person in each store can only scratch once per day, which means that each person has a maximum of 26 scratch chances per day. ”
"Specially note: Anyone who obtains tickets through abnormal channels, that is, tickets that are not won by himself, will be disqualified from fortune-telling once someone reports it, and will be rejected by Tianji Pavilion within one year. ”
As the saying goes, far water can't save near fire, and many people give up the idea of looking for Master Shen's help because of the difficulty in making an appointment.
However, after this latest news was released, many people were excited, and there was still half a month before January 1, that is, everyone would be able to make an appointment online in half a month.
And because of the cancellation of the first reservation rule, it is equivalent to completely opening up the reservation right, in Shanghai, in Kyoto, and in the magic capital...... Reservations can be made online in any area.
As long as the appointment is successful, then go to Tianji Pavilion to tell the fortune, this regulation ushered in countless applause and applause.
After this long Weibo was posted, it actually became one of the hot topics on Weibo overnight.
This can make many celebrities look red-eyed, and the hot topics on Weibo are like headlines, which requires a very large amount of attention to be possible.
In one night, this new rule was liked 600,000 times, a terrifying like rate, and even some celebrities have tens of millions of fans, it is difficult to reach this number of likes.
This can only show that the degree of support of fans is not the same, and the number of followers of Master Shen's Weibo has reached 1.5 million at this time.
That is, nearly half of the people like the new rule, and many people have not had time to read Weibo.
The popularity of the three words "Master Shen" had just dropped a few points, and it was pushed up by netizens again in an instant.
Master Shen of Lingxi City became the Master Shen of the whole country in an instant, and now the people of the whole country can go to the Internet to make an appointment for fortune telling.
Of course, in cities other than Lingxi City, many people still have some suspicions about Master Shen, and they finally got rid of the feudal superstition that had been there for a long time, and now it is very difficult for everyone to believe in this kind of thing again.
At this time, some professional scholars also came out to analyze and solve the doubts of netizens, is the divination of "Zhou Yi" superstitious?
Many people think that this is not reliable, but if it is not reliable, why can Master Shen stand up in today's society?
Moreover, many famous scholars highly recommend the "Zhou Yi", the British scholar Dr. Joseph Needham, and the German psychologist Carl Jung highly admired the "Zhou Yi", and the latter even wrote a preface to the English version of the "Zhou Yi".
Qingshui University, Chen Jinming, a professor of Chinese studies, specially came out to explain this matter......
In Professor Chen Jinming's personal blog, he wrote a relatively long paper, which analyzed in detail that "Zhou Yi" is not superstition!
"First of all, we need to know, what is superstition?"
"Superstition has four characteristics, the most obvious and easy to understand is the fear of the unknown, such as fear of ghosts and disasters. ”
"Secondly, it has a strong personal utilitarianism, for example, if you want to eliminate disasters, then break the fortune and give me your money......"
"Moreover, having mana, such as the sect leader who was exposed a few years ago, is to claim that he has boundless mana and can do some amazing things that ordinary people can't imagine, or even can't do. ”
"Finally, it will emphasize worldly achievements, such as being able to bless you with promotion, wealth, and a long life......
Zhou Yi divination and divination is based on the dualism of yin and yang, and the five elements are based on the dualism of yin and yang, to describe, demonstrate, and use the laws of the operation of things to summarize the academics. ”
"Zhou Yi's prediction is the result of rigorous logical calculations according to his strict theoretical system, while superstition is based on one-sided assumptions, and there is a world of difference between the two. ”
"A very simple example, Zhou Yi divination is to resolve bad things by adjusting the balance. For example, if someone does not get enough sleep, then it may lead to being unenergetic at work, and then being criticized by the leader, and because of being criticized by the leader, he is in a bad mood, and there is a mistake at work, and the leader criticizes again, and then the mood is even worse, so that when crossing the street, he is distracted and has a car accident. ”
"Then the solution through Zhou Yi is to first increase the sleep time, and then ensure that the spirit is sufficient, which can naturally reduce the probability of subsequent events. ”
"If it is superstition, then the solution is very simple, such ......as burning incense and burning paper, praying to the gods and worshipping the Buddha, worshiping ghosts and gods, and so on."
"So you can use this as a reference to analyze for yourself what superstition is......"
Many people who have seen this article have finally had a more comprehensive understanding of superstition.
So is Master Shen's fortune-telling superstitious?
This topic has begun to unfold in several forums, some people say that it is superstition, but more people think that it is not superstition, and some people even say that even if Master Shen is superstitious, I believe it!
In the eyes of the broad masses, what everyone attaches more importance to is not whether they are superstitious or not, but whether they are accurate or not, and whether they are useful.
Almost all people who have gone to Master Shen to tell the hexagram will come to a conclusion, that is, the calculation is accurate!!
And the people in Master Shen's recommended list are gradually becoming successful, everyone sees it, one person is hype, two people are coincidences, and three people are the truth!
At the same time, Wang Muyun, the street leader of Shili Street, received a call from the leader that night, and at first thought that he was here to give a lecture, so frightened that Wang Muyun hurriedly got up from the bed.
As a result, the leader called and told Wang Muyun to seize this opportunity to rebuild Shili Street.
And listening to the leader's intentions, I am afraid that Shili Street will have to be expanded and new shops will be introduced, otherwise there will only be more than 20 shops, which cannot be called a commercial street at all.
Wang Muyun was about to call Master Shen to express his gratitude, but found that Master Shen was on the phone.
At this time, Shen Qiong was talking to his cousin Shen Hongjie on the phone......
"Brother, I've borrowed the number!" Shen Hongjie said with a smile: "The king of Hanbok, you can match Feike." ”
Shen Qiong nodded and smiled: "That's it, you will play a few more rounds of Hanbok when you broadcast live, and it is best to be able to snipe Feike in the past two days." ”
Shen Hongjie said with a black face: "Try it! But my current level is still a cut below that of professional players, and I guess I will be abused!"
"Don't be afraid, as long as you can snipe him, I have a way for you to win. Shen Qiong smiled.
Shen Hongjie still didn't understand what Shen Qiong meant, and asked suspiciously, "How to win." ”
Shen Qiong's eyes rolled, and he grinned: "Anyway, win steadily, and then you will be the one who can beat Feike." ”
Shen Hongjie asked in surprise: "Could it be that you want to do something behind your back?"
Shen Qiong thought about it for a while, this drifting bottle should be regarded as cheating, and suddenly smiled: "Almost!"
At this moment, Shen Hongjie gave an answer that made Shen Qiong stunned: "I don't want to!" (to be continued.) )
