Chapter 363: A Narrative Born for Philosophy
Yu Hai decided to rest for a while, although he still wanted to look down, but his energy was really unable to support it.
Rubbing his eyes, he stood up from the office chair, the hot water in the cup was already cold, and he noticed that the time had reached more than seven o'clock in the evening, and he had been off work for more than an hour, and if he didn't go home, maybe his wife would call him and ask him why he didn't come home.
Walking out of the office, what Yu Hai didn't expect was that many colleagues didn't leave. But when they saw him, they seemed to breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.
Yu Hai was surprised, "It's been a while since I got off work, why haven't I left yet?"
"There's still some things to do, so I'll leave later. โ
"It's just the beginning of the year, I have a lot of work, and I'll leave in a while. โ
Colleagues replied one after another, Xiao Xia sat on the ground closest, and said with a smile, "Is Mr. Yu going back now?"
Yu Hai smiled, "Well, I want to go back, I was fascinated by reading books in the afternoon, but I didn't expect it to be at this time." โ
Saying that, he instructed Xiao Xia again, "It just so happens that you haven't gone back yet, I have something to tell you, you can contact Zhuang Yan's agent when you go back and ask him to talk about the publication of the new book." โ
Xiao Xia was stunned, "Is that the book "Sophie's World"?"
The name of Zhuang Yan's new book has long been in the news, and of course he has heard of it.
"Well, I've read most of the book, and I'm ready to talk about publishing. โ
After saying that, Yu Hai left, leaving Xiao Xia in a daze, he had a guess in his heart, it turned out that Mr. Yu was staring at the computer screen so intently in the afternoon, it turned out that he was reading Zhuang Yan's new book.
Isn't it rumored outside that Zhuang Yan's new book is a propaganda book made for the local zhรจng fว, how can Mr. Yu be so fascinated by it. And after only half reading it, he was in a hurry to talk about publication, which shows that Yu Hai has a high opinion of this book.
Of course, even if the book is not good, the publication must be discussed, after all, Zhuang Yan's brand is here, but Yu Zong is definitely not so active.
Before Yu Hai went home, he went to Wang Lijian's office, but Wang Lijian had already gone home from work.
He called Wang Lijian on the way to pick up the car.
"Hey, Lao Yu, why did you call me at this time?" Wang Lijian felt a little strange when he answered the phone.
Yu Hai smiled, "I just went to your office, and you have already gotten off work, so I'll call you." โ
"You're still in the company, what's the matter with me?"
"Nothing special, I just want to ask you if you finished watching Sophie's World?"
"No, it's possible to read such a long book so quickly. Wang Lijian felt even more strange, and said, "Don't tell me, you've finished reading it, it's impossible." โ
Yu Hai smiled, "Of course it's impossible, but you don't have any doubts when you read this book, and there's nothing you can't understand in the middle?"
Wang Lijian just arrived home for a while, just made himself a cup of tea, he didn't read much when he was in the company before, because of business delays, now he is ready to sit down and take a good look, hearing Yu Hai talk about the content of the book, he nodded and said, "There are indeed some doubts, this book is a bit suspenseful, I still don't know who that Chen Ying is, why does it appear in the book frequently." and Sophie's philosophy teacher, who also didn't show up. โ
Hearing Wang Lijian's words, Yu Hai probably knew where he was seeing, so he smiled and said, "Let me tell you, I have figured all of these things out, and the answer is definitely beyond your imagination." That Chen Ying, and his teacher, if you don't see the back, no matter what you think, I'm afraid you won't be able to figure out what the origin is. Also, Zhuang Yan actually put his name ......"
"Stop me!"
Wang Lijian couldn't help but drink, obviously, Yu Hai wanted to give him spoilers.
"You're calling to show off to me?"
"You guessed it right, I just want to show off to you, I can't be in a hurry to read books. Yu Hai's voice was shy.
He didn't have any special purpose, he originally thought that if Wang Lijian read as much as him, the two of them could discuss the content of the book together, but when he heard that Wang Lijian hadn't seen much, he had a bad idea in his heart and wanted to tease him.
Imagining Wang Lijian's expression when he was anxious to know the rest of the content now, he felt dark.
"I won't tell you, I'll see for myself. Wang Lijian hung up the phone directly.
โฆโฆ
The one who saw the book with them, or even saw the book before them, was Liang Qichao.
Zhuang Yan had told Liang Qichao before that he would give him "Sophie's World" and let him see if he could help with the translation work.
Later, at the apprenticeship banquet, Zhuang Yan gave the book to Liang Sicheng, which also killed two birds with one stone, which was regarded as giving the book to Liang Qichao, so that he could see it in advance.
Liang Qichao started reading "Sophie's World" last night, and by now, he has read the whole book.
In the study of the Liang family, Liang Qichao looked at the manuscript of "Sophie's World" in his hand blankly, the whole person was in a trance, he was different from Wang Lijian, after all, he was also from the study of Western philosophy, and the things he saw were naturally completely different.
If you want to say that the philosophical knowledge of this book is very basic. You think, since you are writing the history of philosophy, you naturally will not mention it in depth.
However, the philosophical thinking in it is not simple, and the context of the history of philosophy is interspersed in the story very smoothly and clearly.
In any case, this is definitely not a book written by a layman. Before Zhuang Yan came to ask him for philosophical knowledge, most of the time Zhuang Yan asked, and he answered.
But now it seems that Zhuang Yan's research on the history of Western philosophy is so profound, thinking of this, Liang Qichao blushed a little, he used to instill some basic philosophical knowledge in Zhuang Yan like a student.
"This sub-word is actually hidden from me. โ
Liang Qichao was annoyed, but there was a smile on his face, he was sincerely happy for his son. He finally understood why Zhuang Yan gave this "Sophie's World" to Sicheng.
In the book, Chen Ying's father "Zhuang Yan" specially wrote the book "Sophie's World" in order to teach his daughter the knowledge of the history of philosophy, just like Zhuang Yan sent the book to Liang Sicheng, wanting him to learn about the history of philosophy through this book.
If the girl named Chen Ying in this book was replaced by Sicheng, Liang Qichao would even think that this book was specially written for Liang Sicheng by Zhuang Yan.
Of course, this is impossible, because Zhuang Yan had already finished this book before he met Sicheng, so naturally it was impossible to have anything to do with Sicheng.
However, this book is indeed a very good philosophical enlightenment book, especially the point "I think, therefore I am" is vividly expressed. Compared with those philosophical masterpieces, this book is more suitable for people who have not been exposed to the subject of philosophy much.
And the story is full of fun, and the guidance is naturally full.
When Liang Qichao saw that this book jumped out of Sophie's world and arrived in Chen Ying's world, his brain was bombarded as if it was about to explode, this unprecedented artistic technique was so direct to people's hearts.
He even felt that this meta-narrative should be born for philosophy.
Thinking of this, he dialed Zhuang Yan's phone.
