In May 1996, the state launched the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project, the main purpose of which was to formulate a scientifically based "Xia Shang Anniversary Table".
According to the different conditions of the materials in each historical stage, the "Xia Shang Anniversary Table" should achieve a more accurate chronology of the kings before the first year of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the first year;
For the kings below Wuding in the late Shang Dynasty, a more accurate date is proposed;
For the early Shang Dynasty, a more detailed chronological framework is proposed.
A basic chronological framework is proposed for the Xia Dynasty.
To put it simply, it is to break the dynasty of Xia Shang and Zhou.
As a "Ninth Five-Year Plan" national key scientific and technological research project, the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project has been highly valued by the state, focusing on 9 disciplines and 12 majors, and more than 200 experts and scholars have jointly tackled key problems, and established a leading group for the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project.
Song Weizhi, former director of the State Science and Technology Commission, was the person who proposed and discussed with everyone the idea of establishing the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties.
Historian Li Boqing, carbon-14 expert Zhao Heming, archaeologist Sun Jichang, and astronomer Chen Bonian were the chief scientists of the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties at that time.
After the official release of the "Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasty Project 1996-2000 Stage Achievement Report (Simplified Version)" and "Xia Shang Anniversary Table", the conclusions have been adopted by many mainstream dictionaries and textbooks and began to have an impact.
However, criticism has been heard both domestically and internationally.
Some people abroad believe that the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project has a "political background" and that the Chinese government is engaged in nationalism, and some scholars have doubts about the "academic ethics" of the project.
Three debates were held between 2000 and 2003, via the Internet.
The most important controversy is whether Xia existed, and the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project not only believed in the existence of the Xia Dynasty, but also listed the lineage tables of the kings of the Xia Dynasty.
Many Western scholars are skeptical of this.
In Western textbooks on ancient Chinese history, the Xia Dynasty is only a legendary dynasty rather than a history of letters; And the Shang Dynasty is considered to be the first dynasty in China, and this is because the oracle bone inscriptions prove the existence of Shang.
Some Western scholars have criticized the "project" and taken it for granted that Xia was the former dynasty of Shang and designated Erlitou as the capital of Xia, but the evidence is not sufficient under the current circumstances.
Some Western scholars believe that the activities of the Xia people discussed in the Zhou Dynasty documents are likely to have been fabricated by the Zhou people for political purposes, and cannot be trusted.
Furthermore, the level of culture in Erlitou is not enough to prove the occurrence of "civilization" (generally referring to a society with writing, cities, governments, and inequality between the rich and the poor), and "unless writing, bronzes, and chariots can be found in Erlitou, or any sign of civilization, the basic dividing line between prehistory and history will still be Shang." ”
At the beginning of 2004, it was the time when the controversy over the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties was most intense.
Scholars who support 'engineering' and those who criticize 'engineering' have just finished their third debate.
The appearance of Xia Seal was like a beam of sunlight shining into the dark room from the skylight, which suddenly illuminated the hearts of all scholars who supported the 'project'.
The biggest regret of the archaeological research of the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties is that the Xia seal was not found.
The greatest evidence for the existence of the Xia Dynasty is also the Xia seal, and writing is the most important symbol of a civilization.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, many people have not yet gone to work.
Xu Fangyi, Song Weizhi, Li Boqing, Zhao Heming, Sun Jichang, Chen Bonian, and more than a dozen scholars gathered to discuss.
"China has Xia and has not replied to me, and our only way is to find China Youxia by looking up the IP." Xu Fangyi spoke first.
"Nowadays, the only way to find China is to find Xia." Song Weizhi nodded and said, "Find the IP of China Youxia, and leave it to me to find China Youxia himself." ”
"In fact, the name of Xia in China reveals some information, China has Xia, China has the Xia Dynasty, and even if there is writing, there must be a carrier of writing, some Xia Dynasty artifacts containing words or carved symbols." Zhao Heming said, "These hurried cultural relics are national treasures. ”
"Unexpectedly, when the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project was most debated in the international academic community, the unexpected appearance of Xia Seal brought us extremely important evidence, Xia Seal not only proved the existence of the Xia Dynasty, but also proved the civilization of the Xia Dynasty." Sun Jichang said.
"In one sentence, the appearance of Xia Seal can bring the controversy of 'engineering' to a half-perfect end."
......
An hour later.
There was a knock on the office door.
"Come in." Song Weizhi said to the door.
The door was pushed open, and a young man casually dressed in flip-flops, a vest, and a man-made hair, yawning walked into the office.
"How about it, Xiao Wu, did you find out that there is Xia IP in China?" Song Weizhi said to the young man.
The young man's name is Wu Yun, a top hacker in China's hacker circle, who was co-opted by the government.
"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life." Wu Yun said, "It took some time, mainly because the other party's computer firewall is too difficult to do, it seems to be a customized version of the firewall in the United States, American scientific research institutions, and the military are using this firewall, if the other party is not a computer rookie, the virus doesn't know, it's too difficult to get it, I'm on his computer, and getting some information may be helpful to you." Wu Yun handed the laptop in his hand to Song Weizhi.
Song Weizhi took the notebook and said, "Okay, trouble Xiao Wu." ”
Song Weizhi put the laptop on the table, and everyone gathered over to check the information on the laptop.
Most of them are information that China has exchanged with foreign countries.
"Boos, I have sent you the fourth quarter 2003 performance report of the Gold Coin Farm Restaurant by email, please review it and sign it." Levi. XY Burke.
"Okay, I'll review and sign it as soon as possible. In addition, by January 10th, please prepare a plan for the development of the Gold Coin Farm restaurant in the first quarter of 2004. --- Chen"
"I need to talk to you about the development planning and construction of the Manua Islands. ---Mccann. Ham. ”
"Okay, send me an email and I'll take a look. --Old. ”
"Mr. Chen, the farm needs to buy a batch of farm tools and pay the wages of the workers, and it needs to spend 217,000 US dollars, and I have sent you an email with a detailed list of expenses, please check, review, please sign."
"Okay, I'll take care of this before noon."
"Luo Jiaming, help me book 12 tickets from Shenzhen to San Francisco, February 17, the sooner the better, it's troublesome."
"Okay, Mr. Chen."
