As for Gu Hongming, he was rejected by the world because his thoughts were out of date. Known as the Weird Guy. But in fact, it is a giant who sees through the strengths and weaknesses of two civilizations. If it is really based on the theory of achievement of academic contributions, Gu Hongming's achievements are still above the Lu, Guo, Mao, Ba, Lao, and Cao masters known in later generations.

Although these later generations have also made some achievements, they have made many achievements. In terms of the degree of insight into the Chinese civilization and the Europa civilization, and on its long-term foresight, it is not as good as Gu Hongming.

These people praised by later generations are famous for criticizing the flaws of Chinese civilization. If you count it, it is actually equivalent to a dynamite bag that blows up the castle one by one, although when it explodes, the sound is roaring, the color is blazing, and it is eye-catching.

However, there is not much use other than destruction. At most, it is just thought-provoking. After the explosives exploded, there was a ruin, a mess, and there was no possibility of living at all.

At that time, a certain person not only wanted to abandon Chinese medicine, but even wanted to abandon Chinese writing. If this person used his huge influence back then, he really did this. The thousands of years of inheritance in China is really broken.

Today's China will not have the same script and language. Thousands of years of Chinese classics and articles, all kinds of essences, for the descendants of China, will be as difficult as reading the book of heaven!

However, Gu Hongming has studied both China and the West, and objectively compares the advantages and disadvantages of the civilizations of China and Europa. At the time of the decline of Chinese civilization, when the world was unpopular and wanted to abandon the inheritance of Chinese civilization, he still preached and spread Chinese civilization in the countries of Europa. And hit the nail on the head, and single-handedly set off a boom in the countries of Europa.

On heroes, who are the heroes?

On the Internet in later generations, there is a picture, which is very vivid. In this picture, there are three people, and these three people are stepping on books of different thicknesses at their feet. One of them had only read a handful of books. I don't know the dangers of this world. Therefore, all you see is an innocent and gorgeous scenery.

The other person saw ten times as many books as the first person, and because of his growing understanding of the world, the world was in danger in his eyes. There are all kinds of flaws, and it is dull and gray like hell.

But what these people see is not the truth and the end of this world.

Next to this man with a wealth of knowledge, there is another being who is ten times more knowledgeable. At this level of knowledge, the world is not black and white, not cruel and sinister, neither bright and blue, nor gray and gloomy.

In the eyes of this knowledgeable person, the world flows according to a certain established rule. There is sunshine in the haze, and clouds in the blue sky. Such a rotation of rules cannot be restrained by the ordinary morality of good and evil in the world. Everything is in the dark, pointing to the truth.

Nowadays, most of the people who are respected by later generations, including Lu, Guo, Mao, Ba, Lao, and Cao, are just staying in the second realm. Too many cynical people are just the existence of the second realm with insufficient knowledge and limited mind. Only the existence with the longest longevity reached the third level in his later years.

And Gu Hongming was already in the third layer realm, looking down on all living beings.

Gu Hongming was born in the late Qing Dynasty, and the English people knocked on the door of China with strong ships and cannons. China itself is difficult to protect, and since the Ming Dynasty, the influence accumulated in Nanyang has been lost. His background is also a wealthy family, and he is a mixture of Chinese blood and Europa blood.

As a child, he was gifted. I was taken care of by the owner of the English rubber plantation in Nanyang and cultivated it with all my heart. And brought it to England to study. With his outstanding talents, Gu Hongming traveled to Prussia during his studies in Europa. He is proficient in nine languages, including English, French, Prussian, Latin, Greek, and Malaya.

Gu Hongming studied at the University of Edinburgh and the University of Leipzig. At the centenary of the birth of Prussian Prime Minister Bismarck, who had a high status in Prussia, he made an impromptu speech in many languages.

Brilliant and powerful, it shook the countries of Europa.

For the understanding of Western culture, he can be called the first person in that era, and the scholars of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China are far behind. In front of Gu Hongming, he is not much different from illiterate.

And Gu Hongming also had a lot of exchanges with the upper echelons of Europa that day because of his vertical and horizontal talents. In 1898, Ito Hirofumi, a famous minister of the Eastern Ying generation and a man who was the most profound in China, met with Gu Hongming, and was choked by Gu Hongming.

At that time, Gu Hongming saw that the current affairs in China were declining, and there were many articles on the comparison and discussion of the ideas of China and the European countries, which were published in newspapers and periodicals such as the "Times". When the allied forces of the countries invaded China and the Ming capital fell, it was collected and published. Titled "The Honorable King", there are a lot of articles about the Boxer Rebellion.

This kind of article, which connects the current affairs and thoughts of China and the countries of Europa, can only be written by Gu Hongming, and at that time, both in terms of curiosity and information value, it was extremely important. For a time, it swept the countries of Europa. The impact is significant.

It even had a certain impact on the later negotiations between China and the Eight-Nation Alliance, the European powers. Therefore, the "Qing Historical Manuscript" said: "Gu wrote the "Honoring the King" in English, affirming the righteousness, and the great powers knew that China was established by etiquette and religion, and it could not be insulted in the end, and peace was negotiated. ”

According to today's practical historical data, in 1891, when the Slavic crown prince came to China, he met Gu Hongming and presented him with a gold crown watch. In 1906, Gu Hongming had a correspondence with Tolstoy. In 1920, when the English writer Maugham came to China, Gu Hongming once scolded Maugham. Maugham's book "On the Screen of China" recorded the whole process of being scolded by Gu Hongming.

In 1921, see the Toei writer Ryunosuke Akutagawa. In April 1924, Tagore came to China, and Gu Hongming, Liang Qichao, Cai Yuanpei, Hu Shi, Liang Shuming, Xiong Xiling, Jiang Menglin and others went to Beijing Qianmen Station to greet him.

At this time, Pu Yi, the last emperor of the former Qing Dynasty, met Gu Hongming in person, hoping that Gu Hongming would go out of the mountain to help him restore.

It's just that Pu Yi doesn't know Gu Hongming's personality, and thinks that this strange old man is really just a widow who is dedicated to protecting the emperor. As a result, he was hit with a bloody face.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, China was closed to the outside world, and had such an in-depth understanding of the countries of Europa, and was proficient in Chinese culture, respected Confucianism, and emphasized the way of Confucius and Mencius. This is the only one. In the cone capsule, it is naturally highly valued and promoted.

In 1885, Zhang Zhidong invited Gu Hongming, who originally had the ambition to serve the country, to go out of the mountain. Do its translation. Since then, Gu Hongming and Zhang Zhidong have coordinated foreign affairs.
