Chapter 111: A Famous Female Writer
When he woke up and looked at the time, Wang Yong only slept for less than four hours.
At this time, it was exactly eight o'clock, but Chiba Maki and the others had already left the hotel and went directly to the museum.
Wang Yong washed his face and punched him, which eliminated most of yesterday's fatigue and became energetic again.
didn't have time to sit down to eat, Wang Yong directly bought a few egg cakes at the breakfast shop, gobbled them and ran to the museum.
As soon as he entered the workplace, Gu Xinde looked at Wang Yong in surprise and asked, "Why are you here too?" When we get up in the morning, we are deliberately careful not to alarm you, and want you to sleep a little longer. Although you work hard like this, your body is exhausted, and it drags down your progress even more!"
Wang Yong smiled: "I'm different, don't forget that I'm a martial arts practitioner, and my body is there! Don't worry about me." On the contrary, you old guys, you need to pay more attention to your body!"
Hearing Wang Yong's ridicule, all the old scholars in the office were not happy.
Chiba Zhenxi snorted even more coldly and said, "When I climbed the Holy Sakura Mountain, I didn't see you much faster than me, an old guy?"
Wang Yong was stunned for a while, indeed, Chiba Zhenxi's physical fitness was really far beyond that of the old people of the same age. Even Wang Yong had to admire this.
Wang Yong hurriedly begged for mercy, and the old scholars let Wang Yong go.
Other young people watched the scene and laughed.
There was a sense of harmony throughout the office, and it was hard to imagine that this was a compilation team composed of people from five countries.
Today's task is to sort out the outline and outline of the entire book clearly! If this step is done, it is equivalent to half of the completion. The rest of the work is much easier. Come on!" Wang Yong clapped his hands and cheered everyone up.
From yesterday to now, everyone has been working on the outline of the "Canon of Chinese Studies". This is the skeleton of a book, and the skeleton is made so that flesh, organs, skin, and hair can be added to it. If the skeleton is done well, it means that the work is half the success, so everyone is very cautious and has been discussing it repeatedly.
"Come on!" everyone shouted in unison, full of energy.
It's just that then, there is a scene that has happened repeatedly since yesterday.
"I think the theory of the Yin-Yang School should be carefully chosen, this school was born with a strong ancient theological color, which is not in line with our original intention of compiling the "Canon of Chinese Studies". Gu Xinde looked at a detailed outline on the outline and frowned.
Liu Gaizhi shook his head: "Although I also think that the selection of the Yin and Yang School needs to be carefully considered, the reasons for me and Brother Gu are different. My reason is that the works of the Yin-Yang School have basically been lost, and the remaining fragments are completely inadequate to represent the theories of the Yin-Yang School. β
"Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicles" contains: 21 Yin and Yang, 369 articles. Among them, there are 14 articles of "The End of Gonghan's Life", 22 articles of "Gongsun Fa", 49 articles of "Zou Zi", 56 articles of "The End of Zou Zi", 5 articles of "Chengqiuzi", 5 articles of "Du Wengong", and 20 articles of "Yellow Emperor Taisu".
All of these texts have been lost, and none of them survive in the present world.
There is only one article in the Book of Rites, "The Book of Rites and the Month Order", which is suspected to be the work of the Yin and Yang family. There are also some chapters in "Guanzi" that belong to the works of the Yin and Yang family, and a small number of chapters of the Yin and Yang family are also retained in the "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn Period: Ying Tong", "Huainanzi Qi Customs", and "Historical Records: Qin Shi Huang Benji".
Nothing else.
It can be said that the theory of yin and yang is the most lost school of thought in Chinese culture, so that people are unable to make a thorough understanding of it now.
And modern people's understanding of the theory of yin and yang is limited to divination, feng shui and other aspects.
Chiba Zhenxi put down the pen in his hand and also expressed his opinion: "The theory of yin and yang is nominally a singular school, but in fact, the main idea originates from the Confucian Six Classics and the Taoist Bagua Shengke. In terms of world view, they extracted the concept of yin and yang from the "Zhou Yi", believing that the entire universe was formed from this; from the historical point of view, they extracted the theory of the five elements from the "Book of Shang", believing that the rise and fall of dynasties were normal rotation of the five elements, which belonged to the number of days that could not be violated; and politically, they recognized the Confucian doctrine of benevolence and righteousness and the Taoist rule of inaction. In fact, even now, these theories are still impressively accurate. I think it is neither reasonable nor fair to discard a school of astonishing genius, and I suggest that it be added. In terms of classics, we in the East also have the Yin and Yang School that is not inferior to the Chinese. Theories can be drawn from Oriental onmyology. β
After the Yin-Yang doctrine was transmitted to the Orient, a vast school of Oriental characteristics developed. It's called the Yin-Yang Family.
The most famous is Haruaki Abe.
In Abe Haruaki's book "The Words of Harumi", which is the only one recognized by the historiographical circles, Abe Harumi put forward a theory: all things in the universe are bound by natural laws, and although people are the spirits of all things, they are also subject to various constraints. For example, time, for example, for the body, for example, language. Human beings are the only species in heaven and earth that are bound by language, and what they say cannot be taken back, and it will have unpredictable effects. Often, many words inadvertently become prophecies and cause disasters. Therefore, Abe Harumi founded the Yin-Yang Spell Technique, which led to a trend of Onmyoji in the East.
Before Chiba Zhenxi's words fell, Li Zaixian directly sneered: "The Oriental theory of yin and yang can also be called a school? It's all a trick to deceive people by pretending to be a god and playing ghosts, is it possible that we write those tricks into the book? Don't be funny, okay? Brother Chiba?"
Chiba was furious and just wanted to argue with Li Zaixian.
saw Wang Yong stand up and waved his hand again and again: "Everyone, let's discuss, but don't develop into accusations and attacks, after all, our identity is now a colleague, not an enemy." In my opinion, the doctrine of the Oriental Onmyoji can actually be called a school. It's just that there are a lot of spells and theologies mixed in there, which need to be carefully eliminated. It should be based on the existing fragments of the Chinese Yin-Yang School, supplemented by the Oriental Yin-Yang Theory, to make an objective and neutral introduction. So, let's vote by a show of hands and agree to the added show of hands. β
After all, Wang Yong is the leader of the editorial board and has the right to decide.
Soon, everyone began to vote by a show of hands.
In the end, everyone agreed to Wang Yong's suggestion and decided to add the theory of yin and yang to the "Canon of Chinese Studies".
Resolving this dispute, Wang Yong sighed secretly that it was not easy.
As soon as I sat down, I thought I could be clean for a while, but who knew that the dispute started again......
In this way, Wang Yong became a mediator, specially used to mediate two factions of people with different opinions.
As mentioned earlier, Wang Yong has become the center point of yin and yang, controlling the two sides not to cross the line, forming a harmonious and perfect whole.
After more than three hours, everyone was a little tired, and Wang Yong was even worse.
"I'll go get some breath, and you all should rest. Wang Yong said casually and walked out of the office.
Walking along last night's path, the museum during the day is full of tourists, tourists from all over the world, all of them are curious to look at this place that condenses thousands of years of Chinese culture in one corner.
Among them, there are mostly mainland tourists and Hong Kong tourists, but there are very few locals in Wanwan.
Hula, a group of tourists around Wang Yong suddenly rushed in one direction.
"Hurry up, Long Yingtai's lecture will start soon! In the past, listening to her lecture was paid separately, but now it is included in the ticket, which is very cost-effective!" said a tourist from Xiangjiang in Cantonese, pulling his friends and running briskly towards an auditorium in the museum.
"I'm sorry!" another tourist also rushed and accidentally bumped into Wang Yong.
Looking at the direction of the auditorium, a large number of tourists have already gathered, and they are all flocking in, as if they are watching some world star performance.
"Long Yingtai?" Wang Yong touched the name and walked in the direction of the auditorium.
Long Yingtai's Wang Yong has some understanding, she is a modern female writer, and her fame in Wanwan is probably second only to Sanmao. After Sanmao's death, Long Yingtai became the only well-known Wanwan female cultural scholar in the three places on both sides of the strait.
She is very good at using delicate words to lash out at the dark side of society. Someone once commented on her: She is a fighter who burns the flame to the darkness, and she has chosen to stand in an isolated position from the beginning, not only criticizing the government, but piercing everyone's heart more sharply.
Although Wang Yong has no contact with her, his impression of this person is okay.
As it happens, why not have the opportunity to listen to a free lecture?
Inside the auditorium, the staff maintains order and places visitors in the auditorium. It's just that the seats are limited, and there are still many people who are not allowed to enter, so they can only stand outside and watch the direction of the stage.
On the stage, a middle-aged woman is sitting in the middle, smiling and looking at the audience.
From time to time, I also interacted with the audience in the front row, with a soft tone and a friendly expression. On the surface, this female writer fully meets the Chinese definition of intellectuality.
It is reasonable to be liked by so many people.
Finally, the speech began.
The theme of the presentation appeared on the screen behind the stage.
"One Song, One Era"
Obviously, this is a well-thought-out topic for speeches, one that most triggers the emotions of ordinary people.
After all, there is no one who does not listen to a song, no one who is not impressed by a song, and no one who does not associate a specific person or thing with a song.
Music, since the beginning of human beings, has been carried out in the bone marrow of human beings and is indelible.
"Good topic!" Wang Yong sighed softly.
On the stage, Long Yingtai stood up and said with a smile: "Everyone can see that our theme today is songs. A song can be forgotten for decades because it is the era and history, and it is everyone's memory and comfort. Every song has its own feet, and it will follow its own path. β
Long Yingtai said as he pressed the screen remote control in his hand.
A melody suddenly appeared on the screen: "This green island is like a boat rocking and rocking in a moonlit night." Girl, you are also floating in my heart......"
But it was a song that was all the rage in Wanwan in the 50s, called "Green Island Serenade".
Many listeners were impressed by this and began to hum along.
Long Yingtai also sang softly, with an indescribable smile on the corner of his mouth.
