"I haven't read this novel, I heard about it when I was a child, but no one has filmed it for so many years, why did Chen Ze suddenly want to shoot this novel?"
On the Internet, when the news of Chen Ze's investment in filming "Fengshen Bang" spread, netizens immediately discussed it in an uproar.
Although Chen Ze has only filmed two TV series so far, one "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" and one "Langya Bang", they are all high-quality products, and the movie "Infernal Affairs" he invested in is the highest quality film this year. So when he was going to invest in a new TV series, netizens immediately discussed it.
Everyone wanted to see what kind of TV series it was, and it actually made Chen Ze invest. Everyone knows that the TV series invested by Chen Ze will definitely be a high-quality product.
After reading it carefully, everyone found out that what Chen Ze wanted to invest in was actually a script adapted from an ancient novel "Fengshen Bang", most people had heard of "Fengshen Bang", but they didn't know much about it. So soon, everyone began to discuss on the Internet, discussing what kind of novel this "Fengshen Bang" is and what kind of TV series it will be made.
"I've seen the god list, and I personally think it's only under the four famous novels, it's very good-looking, and if it becomes a TV series, I'm looking forward to it very much."
"Chen Ze's vision is really good, although this novel is not as good as the four famous novels, but it is also a very good quality novel, especially the story of the Shang Dynasty, our country has never filmed the story of the Shang Dynasty in the past, so I am still looking forward to it."
"Fengshen Bang" is a novel in the last years of the Shang Dynasty, although it is a mythological novel, but it also introduces a lot of people and things in the Shang Dynasty, I think it will be a good TV series."
After many netizens raised doubts about "Fengshen Bang" on the Internet, many netizens who had read or understood this novel immediately appeared, and they began to explain this novel.
Looking at their explanations, many netizens became interested in this novel. Especially when they saw netizens saying that this novel is about the story of the Shang Dynasty, they were even more interested. Although everyone knows about the Shang Dynasty, they don't know what kind of dynasty the Shang Dynasty was, what stories it has, and what kings and ministers it has.
Therefore, after hearing that "Fengshen Bang" was a novel of this dynasty, they all looked forward to it a lot. Many people have even begun to turn over history to see in advance what kind of dynasty the Shang Dynasty was.
I don't know if I don't know it, but when I look at it, many people understand that the Shang Dynasty turned out to be the second dynasty of China, a dynasty that inherited the Xia Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty, which can be said to be one of the origins of Chinese civilization and a very important dynasty in the early days of China.
After noticing these, netizens became even more interested, and they were very interested in the story of "Fengshen Bang" and the history of the last years of the Shang Dynasty.
Although the TV series has not yet started filming, a Shang Dynasty fever has begun to appear on the Internet. And when the TV series is officially broadcast, it is obvious that this Shang Dynasty fever will be completely fermented to help more people understand the Shang Dynasty.
And for this phenomenon, many historians in China are very happy, after all, they are very happy to see the popularization of historical knowledge through TV dramas. But there are exceptions, and among those exceptions is a historian named Wang Lung.
Wang Long, one of the most famous historians in China today, although he is not the most authoritative, but in the field of history, he is the most famous. There is only one reason, he is a skeptic among historians today.
The so-called school of skepticism, also known as the school of ancient history debate, is influenced by the study of history in the West, and advocates the use of the concept of historical evolution and the spirit of bold skepticism to study the history and classics of ancient China with the methods of Western history and archaeology.
They began to study the myths and legends of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors of China, and gradually formed a bold concept, that is, most of the records in the ancient history of China are fictitious and tampered with, starting from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, until the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the history of which is not true, and there are many traces of fiction and artificial tampering.
One of the most radical views is that the history before the Western Zhou Dynasty is all fiction, there is no so-called Shang Dynasty and Xia Dynasty, and the so-called **** is fictional by the people of the Zhou Dynasty.
As the leader of the ancient school, Wang Lung's main research object is the Shang Dynasty. He believed that the Shang Dynasty did not exist at all, or that the civilization of the Shang Dynasty did not exist at all.
Because until now, no Shang Dynasty writings and bronzes have been found, only simple ruins. Although there are detailed records of the Shang Dynasty in Sima Qian's "Historical Records", Wang Lung believes that these cannot be counted, and in order to prove the existence of the Shang Dynasty, it is necessary to have Shang Dynasty writings and bronzes, and nothing has been found now.
Therefore, Wang Lung concluded that the so-called Shang Dynasty did not exist. China does not have a 5,000-year-old civilization at all, in fact, it is less than 3,000 years.
As soon as this assertion came out, it naturally immediately caused a sensation in the historical circles, and countless historians were outraged. Because in recent years, Western scholars have openly denied the existence of the Xia Dynasty, and began to question the Shang Dynasty, trying to remove the Chinese civilization from the four ancient civilizations.
At this time, a large number of Chinese historians devoted themselves to research, hoping to prove the existence of the Xia and Shang dynasties as soon as possible. But everyone never thought that there would be Chinese scholars who cooperated with the views of Westerners in order to become famous for themselves and for grandstanding, and openly claimed that **** did not exist, and that Chinese civilization had less than 3,000 years of speech.
This made historians too angry, hoping to find evidence to overturn Wang Lung's assertion. However, Wang Lung's assertion is based on the same set of Western historical research, and if you want to overturn it, you must find all the words, bronzes, and cities, all of which are indispensable.
But let alone the Xia Dynasty, they can't even find the Shang Dynasty's writings and bronzes. Therefore, although he was angry, he had no way to overturn Wang Lung's assertion.
Seeing the academic world like this, Wang Lung was naturally proud, and felt that his judgment was indeed not wrong. His name also spread to the West through this assertion, and many Western scholars began to call him the first historian of China, and thought of giving him an award as encouragement.
After hearing the news, Wang Lung was naturally even more proud. At this time, they heard that Chen Ze was filming "Fengshen Bang", and netizens began to study the news of the Shang Dynasty.
Wang Lung felt the need to popularize his research among his compatriots. By the way, make his own fame a little bigger. (To be continued.) )
