Discussions and articles on the topic of the rise of great powers began to appear in the news media, but most of these media were local or small newspaper publications, and the national newspapers were not involved.

Although the idea of describing the rise of great powers in Reader's Digest is very good and appropriate, and the "Ocean Age" is indeed well written, and it has withstood the scrutiny of historical experts and has been unanimously praised by the historiographical community, who knows what will happen to Gowen's next article?

After all, Govine is so young, no matter how many relevant history books he has read and how much relevant knowledge he has learned, he will definitely not be able to analyze the rise and fall of a country with such a large and macro research. You know, so many historians and sociologists can't write such a brilliant work, he is so young -- can he?

In case one does not match the truth, if you pursue him at this time, then won't you slap yourself in the face at that time? Do you do things to damage your reputation?

Based on this, although state-level newspapers and periodicals such as Guangming Daily, Workers' Daily, and Jiefangjun Bao were drooling over this topic that had caused a sensation in society, they still held on to their bottom line, and did not discuss this topic in a big way except for publishing a few letters from readers.

This may be the stubbornness and conservatism of the big newspapers.

……

Because of agreeing to Zheng Yuanxu's request, Gowen's life suddenly became more busy.

After receiving Zheng Yuanxu's call, he sent the second article of the series of articles on the rise of great powers, "Small Countries, Great Causes", which he had already written, to the editorial office of "Reader's Digest". The hard work of rushing the manuscript began.

Ba Jin's home, his own home, Fudan University Library, Shanghai Library...... Everywhere he was busy.

In the second phase of the Hazy Poetry Exhibition, Govin is no longer doing it himself, what he can do. He did what he wanted to do. So the rest of the work was directly delegated to Lin Yiming, and Lin Yiming was responsible for the overall responsibility.

After all, Lin Yiming is also a trainee editor of "Harvest" magazine, and this experience is used as an exercise to familiarize him with the review and editor, and with the help of Gu Cheng, Li Changzheng and a large group of people, I believe that Lin Yiming will definitely do this job well.

The documentary "The Rise of Great Powers" tells the story of the rise of nine great powers that have had or are having global influence since around 1500 AD, including Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan, Russia and the United States. And Govyn will also write a series of articles on the rise of great powers in this order.

Reader's Digest has already published an essay about the rise of Portugal and Spain, "The Ocean Age", and an essay about the rise of the Netherlands, "A Small Country, a Big Cause", which was completed before Reader's Digest published "Ocean Age", so Govin will next finish an article about the rise of six countries: Britain, France, Germany, Japan, Russia, and the United States.

Just as the big newspapers feared. This is indeed not an easy task for Govine.

But the concerns of both sides are very different. The big newspapers were worried and doubtful about whether Govwin could write a series of articles on the rise of this great power, and they tended that Govin did not have such strength; What Govin worries about is how to write better and more perfect about the rise of this great power.

In the past, CCTV's documentary "The Rise of Great Powers" was jointly drafted and discussed by well-known scholars and former political leaders from different research fields such as history, political science, economics, sociology, law, and international relations at home and abroad.

In addition, Harry Dickens, vice president of the Royal Historical Society, former French President Giskaldesten, and Paul Kennedy, professor at Yale University in the United States, also provided their own views and reflections. This has virtually improved the academic standard of the documentary.

Coupled with the efforts of history professors at Peking University and experts from the Institute of World History of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, it can be said that this documentary is the embodiment and crystallization of the academic wisdom of the contemporary Chinese elite, and represents the Chinese elite's understanding of the world.

But even so, there were still a lot of debates about this "Rise of a Great Power" documentary in the previous life.

Because of the development of information and media. Many of the deficiencies and flaws in this documentary have been pointed out one by one by discerning readers. Many viewers think this documentary is very good, but it can still be better!

Govin thinks the same!

In the previous life, the duration of each episode of the documentary "The Rise of Great Powers" was basically about 45 minutes, and when some countries needed to introduce a lot of content, they used two episodes to introduce them separately. In fact, neither 45 minutes nor 90 minutes can fully represent the rise and fall of a country over the past few hundred years.

Therefore, in the previous life, the documentary "The Rise of a Great Power" inevitably made trade-offs with historical facts in the process of narration, which is a very normal situation, but the aspects and content of the trade-offs should grasp the backbone. We cannot just pick and choose some important historical facts.

And the wars and wars of aggression that the previous "The Rise of a Great Power" tried to avoid were a big problem.

This is also something that Govin cannot agree with.

Govin believed that the history of mankind was connected by wars and wars. And the record of history also shows that there has been very little time in human history when the world was in a state of peace compared to the time when there was war. The great powers that have risen since 1500 A.D. have all fought foreign wars or even risen through foreign wars, and the documentary "The Rise of Great Powers" in the previous life seems to ignore this.

Even if the previous life, "The Rise of Great Powers" was not a documentary aimed at discovering historical details or revealing historical truths, it paid more attention to the thinking that history brings to reality, and was simply telling historical facts rather than a hard evaluation of history. However, since we want the public to have a true understanding of history and to trigger thinking about the rise of our own country, then this aspect of history cannot be casually erased or avoided, this is a matter of position. This is a matter of principle.

Therefore, Govin needs to collect historical information in this area himself, and he has to confess this piece of history to all readers by his own ability.

There are some things that cannot be simplified. There is some history that cannot be ignored.

Otherwise, it will mislead readers, and in this era, domestic audiences have little experience of living in foreign countries, and it is even more difficult to access foreign materials and make comparative analysis. Therefore, if the domestic readers are indoctrinated "one-sidedly", and their views are accepted by many domestic readers, it will have very serious consequences.

As for the rest. Govin still intends to follow the idea of the documentary in his previous life, after all, he is just a person, just a time-traveler who is trying to improve his abilities and knowledge. It is impossible for him to write an article alone that is better than the views reached by nearly 100 experts in his previous life.

Of course, when it comes to history after the 80s, Govin does not intend to write about it, he is not a fool, and he has no intention of being a prophet. Just a little vague judgment and reasoning in the article - that's enough.

The only thing he had to do now was stand on the shoulders of giants. Then be able to see a little further.

……

In February 1946, the world's first computer was born at the University of Pennsylvania in the United States. Although the actual function of this computer weighing 30 tons and covering an area of 160 square meters is not as good as some of today's pocket calculators, its birth symbolizes the imminent arrival of the third industrial revolution, and the United States is the first to occupy the commanding heights of the information age.

And this will certainly be an important reason why the United States will become the world's only superpower in the coming period.

Today, it still spends most on research and development in the world, as much as the other seven richest Western countries combined.

What keeps the U.S. alive and innovative. And it has more than 4,000 universities and 70% enrolment in higher education. As one scholar put it, "A country that has not produced truly well-educated citizens cannot be called a great power," and the United States has the largest higher education system in the world. It has gained the core competitiveness of the information age.

In today's world, after 60 years of development after World War II, a new era characterized by informatization is coming in an all-round way.

……

In April 1945, the only president in U.S. history to serve four consecutive terms, Franklin Franklin. Roosevelt died. Five months later, World War II ended.

The new president, Harry S. Truman, declared that the United States had achieved world leadership.

The two world wars not only hit Germany and Japan, the emerging powers, but also caused the traditional powers, Britain and France, to lose their dominance over the world structure. At that time, except for the United States and the Soviet Union, other industrialized countries in the world were no longer in the limelight. The United States accounted for more than half of the world's total industrial output after World War II, and established an international financial system centered on the dollar around the world, and at the same time, it also stationed troops in 50 countries and regions around the world.

World War II became a new turning point in American history. Its unique comprehensive strength enabled the United States to get rid of the embarrassment of trying to arrange a world order after World War I but to no avail, and began to dominate the international order in a way that was beneficial to itself, and eventually became a superpower in the late 20th century.

……

……

Govin let out a long breath as he finally finished writing "The New Deal in Crisis" about the rise of the United States.

This article made Govin feel particularly difficult to write, because he leaked a lot of genius in this article.

Govin predicted the advent of the information age, predicted the changes brought by computers, predicted the importance of the Internet to a country, and even clearly proposed in this article that the third industrial revolution is marked by the breakthrough and rapid development of the electronic information industry, mainly including information technology, biological engineering technology, new material technology, marine technology, and space technology.

I hope this article can touch more Chinese, can touch more professional scholars and experts to move towards this goal, the first industrial revolution, the second industrial revolution, we missed, the third industrial revolution, we must catch up, so that we can hope to really rise!

Govin put down the pen and looked at the manuscript paper spread out in front of him, silently looking forward to it.

So far, the series of articles on the rise of great powers, which covers the development history of nine countries: Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan, Russia and the United States, has finally been completed.

Gowyn's series of articles on the rise of a great power is divided into eleven essays. Except for the United Kingdom and the United States, which are divided into two articles, all other countries explain the rise of a country in one article.

Although it took so much time and energy for so long. However, Govyn still knows that the article he wrote in combination with the documentary of later generations is still inevitably biased, but this is the most perfect work he can write.

Similarly, Govin also believes that the series of articles he has written will do more good than harm to the current China and the current Chinese people, and it is worth reading.

Originally, the documentary of "The Rise of a Great Power" in his previous life also had the twelfth episode of "Dadao Xingsi", which was a special conclusion and reflection, but Gowen did not plan to write this one.

The rise of a country is definitely not just because of one factor. It must be a combination of factors that has led to the real rise of a great power.

The biggest purpose of Gowen's series of articles on the rise of great powers is to make everyone think about something from the rise of the Western world, so what conclusions and reflections are left to the readers to explore for themselves. Think for yourself, there is no need for you to do it for yourself.

When all the articles were written, Gowen's thinking was always clear, but the process of writing it was quite a difficult and painful journey. But this painful journey has finally come to an end. At this time, it was already the 3rd of December.

The periodical market in December was still full of gunsmoke. And on this silent battlefield. As an author, Govin remains the center of attention.

The December issue of Harvest magazine published the second and final issue of the Misty Poetry Exhibition.

In this issue of "Harvest", more hazy poetry works and more hazy poetry poets have emerged, and among the people, a vigorous and powerful poetry wave has set off a frenzy across the country.

The controversy over hazy poetry and Gowen's "Rising Poetry Group" is still ongoing, but because of the attitude of "Harvest", many newspapers and magazines no longer resist hazy poetry works. Excellent works of hazy poetry have begun to be published in public journals on a large scale.

With the end of the "Harvest" Hazy Poetry Exhibition, the drafting of this huge Hazy Poetry Exhibition has come to an end.

Although there are still some poets' manuscripts sent in intermittently. However, I believe that when those hazy poets see the closing remarks of Harvest magazine in December, they will stop their frantic efforts to send poems to Govyn.

And the students of the Fudan University Poetry Association who helped and the enthusiastic young poets who rushed from all over the country also began to leave one after another.

The days of more than a month are indelible memories for everyone, that is, in the home of Govin and Lin Yiming, they experienced a spiritual carnival, although tired, but full of satisfaction. The busy work day and night not only washes their bodies, but more importantly, makes everyone's soul get a kind of sublimation.

At the final farewell banquet, everyone cried, regardless of gender, whether it was a hazy poet or a lover of poetry, for everyone, this joy, this invisible learning may not be experienced in the future.

Looking at the people in front of him hugging each other and crying goodbye, Govyn's heart was also a little sad, but he still controlled his emotions well, and then he raised the wine glass in his hand and said loudly:

Friends, brothers and sisters, there is no need to cry, this is not an eternal meeting, today's parting is for the sake of seeing each other in the future!

I would like to ask you to remember November and December 1983!

In this more than a month and a half, we, young people from all over the country, gathered together because of the hazy poetry exhibition.

It was we, the enthusiastic and fearless young people, who contributed to the first large-scale assembly in the history of modern Chinese poetry!

It is because of our efforts and guidance that this country has finally faced up to the hazy poetry and the voices of our young people!

We will surely be engraved in the history of modern poetry!

We will surely leave our image in the history of modern literature!

Such deeds and deeds are enough to make us proud for a lifetime.

So we don't need to cry! No need to shed tears! We should shout loudly and laugh loudly!

……

After Govin finished his confession, he drank all the wine glasses he had raised in one gulp, and then he began to sing softly: "Young friends come to meet today, swinging the boat, the warm wind blowing gently, the flowers are fragrant, the birds are singing, the spring light is intoxicating, and the songs and laughter fly around the colorful clouds. Ah, dear friends, to whom does the wonderful spring belong? Belong to me, belong to you, belong to our new generation in the eighties......"

Hearing Govine's words, the others also took a sip of the wine glass in front of them, and then sang loudly along with Govine's singing.

The melodious singing floated out of the private room where they were, floated to the lively road, and floated up to the sky of the land of China, and it did not disperse for a long time.

……

At the moment of parting, everyone hugged each other tightly and waved goodbye to those distant figures, and Govyn sighed a long sigh in his heart.

It's over!

An exhibition of hazy poetry and poetry, which exhibits the most heterodious works and remarks of Chinese youth poetry in the form of public presentation.

Its destructive power has proved to be immense, whether it is its deliberately treacherous imagination, its audacity to judge civilization, its viciousness in attacking the world, and its hideous and thin face in art, in the sense of speech, surpassing the avant-garde art that permeated Europe before the war, and comparable to the cultural changes in the United States in the sixties.

No matter what the future direction of hazy poetry will be, no matter what kind of evaluation this hazy poetry exhibition will have in the history of modern poetry in the future, it will definitely leave a huge image for future generations, which proves that in 1983, in China, hazy poetry has such a grand momentum and such a lively scene!

And it all started with the enthusiasm of us young people!
