Chapter 23: I'm an essay freak
A lot of literature, when writing, requires a literary style.
In fact, in the world of literature, literary style is really not important.
In the world of literature, there is nothing more brilliant than the four or six pun essays, but there are not many famous pun essays.
Overall, the Siliu prose is the most literary, followed by the Bagu essay is the most literary, followed by the Tang poetry is the most literary, the Song Dynasty is the most literary, then the Yuan Qu is the most literary, and the Ming and Qing novels are the least literary.
To put it simply, classical Chinese is more literary than vernacular; Traditional literature is more literary than online literature.
But the times are developing, and the more they develop, the more they have no literary talent, and in today's era, it has simply become the "era of early death".
Take Lu Xun as an example, Lu Xun's novels, many essays, are not literary at all. But without literary talent, he still became a great thinker, writer, and revolutionary. Among them, there may be some reasons for building momentum, but there are also reasons for Lu Xun's outstanding articles.
Ordinary women, the competition is makeup, who is outstanding in makeup, who is more beautiful, more attractive.
can be a medium woman, the competition is who looks better, and who is with the country and the city;
can be a high-class woman, the competition is no longer about appearance, but about cultural connotation.
than Lu Xun's novels, there are many people with literary talents; But there are few people who have a sense of social responsibility and ideological connotation.
"A writer only needs to write a good novel, write a good prose, and that's enough; However, a writer must have a sense of social responsibility and ideological connotation. Only by assuming a sense of social responsibility and having ideological connotation can we transform from a writer to a writer! Li Qing pondered that this is the difference between a writer and a writer.
In an era, there are many writers, but there may be only one, or even one.
…………
It seems that before, after the essay he wrote, Li Qing's thoughts began to flourish, and he began to write an essay "On the Era of Globalization":
What is Globalization?
Globalization, to put it bluntly, is the same book and the same track, and Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries.
As the ties between countries strengthen, economic globalization may come first, followed by linguistic globalization, industrial globalization, political globalization, and finally the establishment of the Earth Federation, forming a unified empire like the Qin Dynasty.
This seems to be the future and seems irreversible.
Whether many people like it or don't like it, the development trend is like this, there may be twists and turns along the way, but it is irresistible and unchangeable.
In the era of globalization, there will be Qin Shi Huang, and this Qin Shi Huang is called hegemonism, power politics.
In the era of globalization, democracy will end completely and enter the era of autocracy, or the autocracy in the skin of democracy, the majority of people will gradually lose their freedom, step by step into worker bees, or robots, or captive cattle and sheep, and there will be no more power, no freedom, and no democracy. The gap between the rich and the poor will widen, not narrow, and conflicts between regions will not narrow, but will intensify.
In the era of globalization, the economy may develop further and social welfare will be further improved, but Confucius, Laozi, Mozi, Zhuangzi and so on will no longer be born.
In the era of globalization, the earth will prosper economically, but it will also go further to destruction, because the speed of technological development cannot keep up with the speed of human resource consumption, and the improvement of various productive forces cannot keep up with the improvement of welfare.
In the era of globalization, unemployment will be further exacerbated, and in a hundred years, 90 percent of the population will face unemployment.
In the era of globalization, it is also the most dangerous era for mankind, the era that is closest to destruction. If human beings do not transform Mars into a second earth and achieve large-scale migration within 300 years, then human beings will only cause war because of serious overpopulation.
Just like at the end of the Chinese dynasties, because the population exceeded the carrying capacity of the land, a war broke out, and the war was used to achieve the policy of reducing the number of people and relieve the population pressure.
…………
Li Qing kept writing words, and the more he wrote, the more interested he became.
Among them, it has begun to break away from the taste of essays, and there is a taste of prophetic essays.
In the end, it ends with about a thousand words.
Essays should be short and concise, not stinky women's footcloths, stinky and long.
Then came the next essay, "The Metamorphosis of Civilization", which began:
According to some science fiction novels, civilizations are divided into several levels. Every civilization is composed of many science and technology, many disciplines, and the more advanced the civilization, the more complex and diverse the disciplines. When dividing civilizations, they are mostly divided according to the level of military technology.
It is only because military technology is the foundation of the survival of a civilization. A lot of civilian technology is often the end of the war. Many scientific and technological breakthroughs are often the first to have major breakthroughs in military technology.
The first-level civilization, also known as the stone civilization, is based on primitive bows and arrows and javelins;
The second-level civilization, also known as the cold weapon civilization, is mostly bronze and iron;
The third-level civilization, also known as the firearm civilization, mostly uses gunpowder as weapons, such as the primary arquebus, flintlock pistol, to the later tank, airplane, etc.;
The fourth-level civilization, also known as the nuclear weapons civilization, uses nuclear energy to create various weapons, such as atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs, etc., as well as controlled nuclear fusion.
The fifth-level civilization, also known as the particle civilization, is mainly based on particle weapons, and has developed deeply in gravity technology, antimatter, curvature navigation, and the grand unified field, which can go out of the earth on a large scale and transform Mars into the earth, and the entire solar system has become the back garden of the earthlings.
The sixth-level civilization, also known as the energy civilization, converts matter into energy, or energy into matter, with a high conversion rate and a high popularization rate.
The seventh-level civilization, also known as the space civilization, can build wormholes on a large scale, use space folding technology, reduce the distance between galaxies in the universe, and turn the Milky Way into the backyard of earthlings.
Level 8 civilization, also known as time civilization, can create a time accelerator at this stage, and can create warships infinitely close to the speed of light, or comparable to the speed of light, so as to turn back time in a certain area, or accelerate.
As for the ninth-level civilization, it is beyond imagination and cannot be imagined at all.
The first-level civilization to the third-level civilization is the primary civilization; Fourth-level civilization to sixth-level civilization is an intermediate civilization; And the seventh-level civilization to the ninth-level civilization is a high-level civilization.
The progress of civilization stems from the progress of science and technology and the development of art.
The decline of civilization stems from the continuous progress of science and technology, while art lags behind, which leads to the incompatibility between spiritual civilization and material civilization, and finally leads to self-destruction.
It's like, if nuclear weapons are created, civilization will advance dramatically, but it is also possible that the world will be leveled by nuclear weapons.
Just like the development of computers, artificial intelligence was born and promoted the development of civilization, but artificial intelligence may also get out of control and wipe out human beings.
However, this is the case with the general trend of history, and many problems cannot be changed or reversed.
It may be that the earth will be destroyed because of nuclear weapons, but it is still necessary to study nuclear weapons, otherwise mankind will not be able to progress; It may be that the development of artificial intelligence has led to the annihilation of human beings, but it is still necessary to develop, and if human beings are not developed, they will fall behind.
In the traditional theory, according to the level of galaxies, it can be divided into the Earth-Moon system, the solar system, and the Milky Way.
And in the universe, galaxies such as the Milky Way, there are at least hundreds of billions, or even more.
Among the many galaxies, there must be planets that can give birth to life and civilizations. Not to mention, just a rough estimate of the Milky Way Star will cost as much as 100 million. And the total universe can be said to be innumerable. But the Milky Way is huge, even the solar system is huge.
The current civilization level of the earth is in the fourth civilization stage, which is considered an intermediate civilization, not too high, not too low.
In the galaxy, there may be too many civilizations, in the stone civilization, iron civilization, firearms civilization and other low-level civilizations, earthlings do not have to be too inferior, it can be said that the above is insufficient, more than the bottom.
And if you want to transform Mars into a settlement suitable for human survival, you must reach at least level 5 civilization; If you want to make large-scale use of the various resources of the solar system, you need at least a sixth-level civilization; And if you want to develop the galaxy, you need at least a seven-level civilization; Maybe you have to reach the eighth level civilization to be qualified to go out of the galaxy!
In fact, many civilizations, even if they reach the eighth level of civilization, will not go out of the galaxy, and most of them operate within the galaxy.
Just because the galaxy is too big, just running a galaxy is enough for an eighth-level civilization to work hard for a long time, and there is no time or energy to expand outward.
In fact, even if human beings have space folding technology and the technology to create space wormholes, most of them will stay near the solar system and will not expand outward by a large margin, just because one solar system resource is enough to digest for a long time, and it is not capable of expanding outward.
The construction of spatial wormholes and the use of spatial folding techniques consume a lot of resources and investment, and only a few areas will be set up.
And in some areas where there is too little recycling interest, it will not be set at all.
On Earth, there are many legends of aliens, but most of them are just legends, and there are no real aliens.
The reason may be that the earth is relatively isolated, and most of the civilizations born in nearby galaxies are too low-level, and some advanced civilizations have not been born to shuttle galaxies, and they are relatively isolated from each other, just like the earth on the eve of opening a new route, and the continents and regions are relatively isolated.
In addition, it may be that the resources near the solar system are relatively scarce and desolate, and it is not worth the invasion of some advanced alien civilizations, and once the space wormhole is erected and shuttled, the various consumption is huge, the harvest is small, and the gains outweigh the losses, so there is no alien invasion.
Low-level alien civilizations are technologically backward and unable to invade the earth; And the advanced alien civilization disdains the invasion and the gains outweigh the losses.
This may have contributed to the fact that the Earth is now calm.
Of course, the Earth may also be discovered by some advanced extraterrestrial civilizations, but the Earth may be too inconspicuous, and there are hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of planets like the Earth.
The Earth may have been discovered, but it was only discovered, and it was not worth investing a lot of money in development, nor was it worth becoming a colony, just because the profits were too small.
Earth, in the eyes of some alien civilizations, is just ants.
The aliens are very busy and don't have time to step forward and kill the ants, showing that they are very awesome.
Therefore, the earth may be very happy, just because it is an ant, and the invasion does not outweigh the losses.
But once an alien civilization invades the earth, it will be at least a seventh-level civilization at that time, and it will not come by a spaceship, but by opening a space wormhole.
…………
It seems that the interest is very high, as if he has become an essay maniac, Li Qing wrote seven essays in a row, mostly on some social issues, some earth issues, and the prospect of human beings.
It is written in a very vague way, and there are many prophecies.
Most of these prophecies are crows croaking and croaking.
PS: As a writer, you have to have a sense of social responsibility, Kavin is serious, and it is difficult to write every chapter exciting!
