History is like a thirteen-year-old girl, who is often commented on wantonly.

On the TV, Zhou Yunshen was talking eloquently: "Many so-called popular historical works are nothing more than taking out wild history or rumored history and organizing it in the current language, without their own thoughts, philosophical and aesthetic views. Readers, reading this dross, in fact, do more harm than good!"

The moderator was very happy, and for media people like them, the more intense the point of view, the better, and the sharper the more appealing.

So Mu Yuan said approvingly: "It is true that many authors' thoughts are relatively one-sided, and their evaluation of many historical figures and historical events is unfair. In recent years, the content of history has been heating up in the cultural circles, what about the Three Kingdoms, the Analects of the Analects, the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, etc., do you think this kind of historical writing craze is related to utilitarianism?"

"Of course it is. At the beginning, there were not many people in our group who wrote history, and Hu Wei was also half a latecomer, and his reputation in the industry was ruined by many works! Some authors wrote history, but they just used Wu Han's "Biography of Zhu Yuanzhang" or the ready-made "Biography of Zhu Di" and "Biography of Jiajing" as a reference, and concocted one book after another with vulgar ridicule and nonsensical humor on the Internet, in an effort to make a fortune. ”

After Zhou Yunshen finished speaking in one breath, he still had a little unfinished snorting, and the whole person's attitude towards popular writing was clear at a glance.

As we have always said, history needs to be remembered, and if it is bent on pleasing the reader or using popular culture as a weather vane, it is most likely to fall into vulgarity, and such a work is not much more noble than street literature, and in the end it will only make the reader sick. ”

Zhang Chu frowned slightly, this Zhou Yunshen is just a researcher at best, and he is just setting up an archway to say this kind of thing, and it is impossible to have too much influence at all.

Why did my dad make a phone call to let himself watch this show?

It is not surprising that there are many similar criticisms of the whole genre, and the reason why many writers or experts are now well-known by others is because of criticism.

Fortunately, this question didn't bother him for too long, because under the question of the host Mu Yuan, everything became clear.

"What do you think is the main reason for such misunderstandings in historical creation?"

There was no such problem in the original interview script, but Mu Yuan was playing randomly, just to catch the topic just now.

Zhou Yunshen felt unhappy, he sighed and said: "The main reason is that the threshold for entry into writing is too low. Now anyone thinks that after reading a history book, they feel that they can write history, and this is simply an insult to history! Perhaps everyone knows that there is a so-called young writer who has not finished his studies and thinks that he wants to write history, thinking that the readers of history will be as foolish as the readers of tomb robbers, but this is very wrong!"

"Are you talking about Zhang Chu?"

Mu Yuanhu asked suspiciously, and his heart was happy at the same time.

After all, this has been revealed obviously, there is only one tomb robbery in the world at present, there is no semicolon, and it is also a student!

The previous rumors that Zhang Chu's new book was going to write history have been boiling on the Internet and have spread very widely.

Of course, his readers are all kinds of support, but they are a little self-conscious in the eyes of others.

Zhou Yunshen, a middle-aged man who is not very popular, where is Zhang Chugao in terms of topic?

The show has been going on for so long, Mu Yuan finally has some spirit, this kind of explosive point is what many shows dream of.

Even if "Telling" is more serious and not one of those trouble-provoking talk shows, it also needs ratings and topics to maintain the program's funding!

Zhou Yunshen readily admitted, "Yes, it's him." He is a science student, and he has not graduated from college yet, so he doesn't know how many pounds and taels he has. History is not the same as the fantasy that Zhang Chu wrote before, and the rest of the works can be written as long as the imagination is good, but historical works require accuracy, and it is difficult to imagine a young man writing history. ”

Even if he writes history, I actually think I'm looking forward to it, after all, he is the top student in the college entrance examination, a student of Peking University, and the winner of last year's best newcomer. ”

Mu Yuan didn't know whether he was helping Zhang Chu explain or stimulating Zhou Yunshen, but his words let the TV audience know who Zhang Chu was.

Indeed, under the inherent influence of people, almost all of the people who write history are professionals who are rich and rich, and young people like Zhang Chu hardly understand history.

Zhou Yunshen continued to speak: "When we professionals write history, we must have a clear understanding of the historical background at that time, and we can't just talk about it, or translate the things in the history books into vernacular. Just like when I wrote "Dunhuang", I not only returned to Dunhuang in person, but also found all the relevant historical records, and at the same time knew the customs and customs of the Song Dynasty and the various ethnic groups in the Western Regions. History can't be written by the way, I hope Zhang Chu can put his time on studying and reading, and don't always think about writing. ”

Zhang Chu in front of the TV shook his head, this teacher Zhou is obviously selling books, and he doesn't leave his book "Dunhuang" in a few sentences.

Wang Po's behavior of selling melons and boasting is understandable, after all, who doesn't say that their works are good!

But Zhang Chu was very disgusted with Zhou Yunshen's practice of praising himself and belittling others, especially the name of the person who was stepped on was Zhang Chu.

"I see, no wonder your dad called back. Chu Lan said extremely angrily, "When has age become the standard for measuring the quality of a book, and before your book is written, they will know that it is not good, what is the truth!"

"Mom, don't be angry. He's just trying to criticize me to gain Internet popularity, but I'm not as good as he wants. ”

Zhou Yunshen may want to step on Zhang Chu, but this time I'm afraid he stepped on the hedgehog!

Zhang Chu has always felt that a touching historical work must not be a collection of research that shows off historical knowledge, nor is it a historical account that bluntly translates ancient Chinese into the vernacular.

If historical works are not appealing to readers, then what is the meaning of this term?

Zhang Chu wants to make interesting and literary observations of historical figures from the perspective of human nature, and decompose human history into vivid, highly individual, and charismatic special individuals to describe.

What's more, he didn't fail to understand the history of this aspect, he almost knew the Ming Dynasty's codes, utensils, culture, customs and other concepts, and went deep into the historical situation of the Ming Dynasty.

Why are historical works now shelved by bookstores and readers?

It's not that they're obscure, but no one but true history buffs will read a book that goes against the reading habits of modern consumers!
