Wang Yanbin looked at the news in the newspaper about Xiao Fei's new work.
His face was gloomy and he pursed his lips.
Wang Yanbin is a reporter from Jinghua News, more than a year ago, when Xiao Fei's new work "The First Close Contact" was causing a sensation in the Chinese world, he took a girl who claimed to be "dancing and flying" to Heyang No. 1 Middle School, planning to take Xiao Fei's hitchhike to help the girl enter the showbiz and become famous in one fell swoop.
What is hateful is that Xiao Fei calculated him and let him capsize in Pingyang, a small place in Heyang, not only was repaired by the police for one night, but also passed the case record to his unit by the Heyang police.
For this, he was also heavily punished by Jinghua Xinbao.
If Wang Yanbin's relationship wasn't strong enough, he might have swept the newspaper out of the house.
In the past year, Xiao Fei's negative impact has been hanging over him like a shadow, making him unhappy and miserable.
A year later, his collapsed image has finally recovered a little. No one looks at him differently anymore.
Because of this setback, Wang Yanbin was very afraid of Xiao Fei but hated it to the core. Now, he saw the report about Xiao Fei and saw that his enemy was now becoming more and more famous. It was so hot that he couldn't do it, and the jealousy in his heart burned him like a fire.
He thought. Gotta find a way to get revenge on this kid.
Can't make him better!
Wang Yanbin felt that in front of him. "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" seems to be an opportunity.
Wang Yanbin knows a lot about the dogskin in the academic world, like Xiao Fei's "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", it is estimated that many professionals will be unconvinced, thinking that the writing is too shallow and unprofessional, and it is actually difficult to live up to the reputation. I don't know how many people are eyeing it, waiting to roll up their arms and sleeves to criticize, trying to get ahead by stepping on people.
He thought that if he could find a few experts in history, do an interview, and criticize the work "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty". It's not bad to give Xiao Fei a heavy blow, right?
Wang Yanbin held his chin in his hand, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was good.
The current media, almost overwhelmingly, is praising Xiao Fei's stinky feet, blowing "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" as if he is blowing something, and it seems that he can also create one or two good news articles by singing the opposite tune like this.
It's a win-win-win
Before other media could react, he still had to hurry up and concoct Xiao Fei's negative news.
Wang Yanbin thought so, picked up the phone and began to call his friends. He ran as a reporter for social news. I don't know the academic world, especially the big guys in a remote discipline like history.
If you want to find a suitable interviewer, you must have friends to trust friends, and relationships to find them.
But. Wang Yanbin was lucky that he had just made two phone calls when a friend recommended him a candidate: Zhou Chao, a doctoral student in the Department of History at Peking University.
Zhou Chao is a protégé of Lu Zelin, head of the Department of History at Peking University. He is a well-known young expert in Ming history in China, and his main research direction is Ming history. He has written a series of important papers on the history of the Ming Dynasty.
After Wang Yanbin learned about Zhou Chao's specific situation, he was very satisfied.
His friend paged Zhou Chao to Wang Yanbin.
Wang Yanbin couldn't wait to paged Zhou Chao. left him a message to indicate his identity: The reporter of Jinghua Xinbao, if you have something to look for, please call back.
At this time, Zhou Chao was staying alone in the bedroom and reading the newspapers in the capital for the past two days.
He found all the chapters of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" that have been published so far, and put them in front of him to check the information over and over again for verification.
As a result, Zhou Chao found that Xiao Fei's book, which is similar to historical romance, although the content of the joke is not small, the use of historical materials is really rigorous, and all historical deeds have significant sources, and the author's research is also added.
It's still very tightly written.
It can be seen from this that the author has put in a lot of hard work, and it is not a game that is put together randomly.
It is quite rare for a work like a popular historical commentary to be able to do it to such an extent. Judging from the content that can be seen in this book so far, if this level is maintained, ordinary people can have a full understanding of the history of the Ming Dynasty after reading "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
You must know that ordinary people, they don't have a deep understanding of history, they only know the history of dynasties and generations, that is, what they learned in history textbooks when they were in school.
At this time, the Internet was just starting, and the vast majority of people did not use the Internet, and there was no rich historical accumulation on the Internet like that of later generations.
Even those who are very interested in history and want to explore it are not allowed to enter.
Now that you have "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", everyone wants to know about the history of the Ming Dynasty, but they think those historical classics and treatises are too boring, it is enough to read this "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
This is a great good thing with immeasurable merit!
So, does it have any drawbacks?
Zhou Chao believes that the answer is yes: yes! Its drawbacks are quite big!
History is a very objective thing, and historians have always been required to respect historical facts and not express their subjective thoughts at will.
In the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", the author is like an almighty god, pointing fingers at these historical facts and commenting on them at will.
I can't say no, but if there are too many comments and too many subjective things, it is easy to make the mistake of subjectivism, which is very criticized.
In addition to this, Zhou Chao also found that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has a lot of self-contained details about historical facts, such as, it says that Zhu Yuanzhang has herded sheep for the landlord for 12 years, and this detail does not seem to be so accurate.
Zhou Chao was frowning and studying. While thinking, while researching. While writing down the mistakes and omissions he thought in "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
At this time, the BP machine he had put aside suddenly rang. There's a message coming in.
Zhou Chao picked it up and took a look, and he saw that it was actually written: I am a reporter from Jinghua News, I am looking for you if I have something, please call back. There was a phone number left in the back.
Zhou Chao laughed.
This really means that Cao Cao Cao is here, and he was thinking about how to find a reporter to cooperate with and publish his critical thinking on "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", and the reporter took the initiative to come to the door.
He grabbed the card-type landline on the table and dialed the phone number of the person who claimed to be a reporter from Jinghua Xinbao.
"Hello? I'm Zhou Chao, who are you? The phone was connected, and Zhou Chao asked politely.
Wang Yanbin didn't expect it. Zhou Chao's call replied so quickly, and it was not half a minute after he finished paging that the other party called.
"Hello, Dr. Zhou, my name is Wang Yanbin, I am a reporter from Jinghua News, I want to give you an interview, can I?" Wang Yanbin said.
"Oh? What kind of interview? ”
"I just want to know some of your views and comments on the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty". Dr. Zhou is a history student, and Xiao Fei is a history student at Peking University. Do you have a different understanding of the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"? Wang Yanbin said.
Zhou Chao was even more pleasantly surprised.
This is really a coincidence, I didn't expect that the other party came to me for the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
"Yes." Zhou Chao agreed to come down.
An hour later. Zhou Chao and Wang Yanbin sat in a small bag in a teahouse.
"Hello Dr. Zhou."
"Hello Reporter Wang."
The two met and said hello, Wang Yanbin asked for some refreshments, and began a tentative interview.
Wang Yanbin was afraid that Zhou Chao would have a good relationship with Xiao Fei. In that case, I want the other party to say bad things about Xiao Fei. It is unlikely that Xiao Fei's work will be refuted.
"Dr. Zhou, what is your relationship with Xiao Fei? Xiao Fei is now the most popular student at Peking University! Wang Yanbin said with a smile.
Zhou Chao snorted coldly: "Hmph! Reporter Wang invited me over because he also wanted me to sing praises to Xiao Fei, right? I'm afraid I'll let you down. ”
Zhou Chao knows. In the past two days, many students in the Department of History of Peking University who are close to Xiao Fei have been interviewed by reporters, all in order to dig deep into the first-hand information of Xiao Fei's writing "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
As soon as this reporter Wang opened his mouth, he first asked about his relationship with Xiao Fei, which made him a little confused, and he didn't know what Wang Yanbin's purpose was.
But he didn't care what Wang Yanbin's purpose was, he came to see Wang Yanbin today to bombard Xiao Fei to vent his personal anger.
He must persuade this reporter Wang to write down his views on Xiao Fei's work, form a report, and publish it in the newspaper.
When Wang Yanbin saw Zhou Chao's reaction, he smiled in his heart.
Just looking at this, he knew that the relationship between Dr. Zhou and Xiao Fei in front of him must not be so harmonious, and there may be a lot of grudges.
That's good!
You don't have to bother talking about it yourself.
"No, no, of course not, I asked you to come here today, just to hear the real views of professionals like you on "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", good or bad, you can say, I want to make different news, can you understand what I say?" Wang Yanbin said with a smile.
Zhou Chao smiled, looking at the expression on this reporter Wang's face and the hints in his words, he also wanted to make some unconventional reports, right?
Then he just wants to listen to the criticism of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
"I can unceremoniously give a two-word comment to "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", these two words are: garbage!" Zhou Chao said with a sneer.
"Oh, I want to hear about it." Wang Yanbin suddenly shook his spirits.
Directly commenting on it with "garbage", this is really intense enough, and it seems that I will definitely be able to do a good job in this news.
If nothing else, just talk about Xiao Fei's grievances and entanglements with his fellow doctors, and there will definitely be many people who will be interested.
"Then I'll talk about them one by one?"
"Listen up." Wang Yanbin took out a voice recorder from his pocket, opened it, and spread out the interview notebook, ready to record the main points.
Zhou Chao began to criticize it vigorously.
His main criticisms are as follows.
First, he believes that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is not a historical monograph, at best it is a very amateur interpretation, and the purpose of the storyteller at Tianqiao is not to study history, but to entertain the public. Therefore, this book is very low-style, very vulgar, and difficult to get into the hall of elegance, and it can barely be regarded as a historical fast food article.
Second, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" actually has nothing to do with academics, at most it is a reading of historical notes, the author reads the history of the Ming Dynasty, and then, according to the general order of historical development, writes down what he sees in more amusing and ruffian words, and then publishes some comments with strong subjective colors, so that the audience laughs and is done! This is a great disservice to serious historical research!
Third, there are too many historical errors in Xiao Fei's book, and there are at least one or two dozen chapters that can be seen so far.
One of the mistakes, when the author introduced Zhu Yuanzhang's family, wrote: One month after Zhu Yuanzhang was born, his parents chose a name for him (Yuan Shi convention): Zhu Chongba, this name can also be called Zhu Baba. Let's introduce here again, the names of Zhu Chongba's family are very distinctive.
Zhu Chong's eight ancestors name: Zhu Bailiu;
Zhu Chong's eighth great-grandfather's name: Zhu Sijiu;
Zhu Chongba's grandfather's name: Zhu Chuyi;
We introduced his father, named Zhu Wusi.
Such a name was chosen not because the Zhu family was engaged in mathematics, but because in the Yuan Dynasty, if the common people could not go to school and become officials, they would not have a name, and could only be named after the sum of their parents' ages or the date of birth. (Those who register for an account will be dazzled.) )
"The author probably forgot that the Yuan Dynasty was founded only a hundred years ago, and by the time it completely conquered the Southern Song Dynasty and unified the Central Plains, it was already 1279."
From this, we can deduce that Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather Zhu Chuyi was definitely not from the Yuan Dynasty, but was born during the reign of the Southern Song Dynasty, so why was Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather also named after numbers? Also, Zhu Yuanzhang's great-ancestors and ancestors are more certain that they are not from the Yuan Dynasty, why are they also named after numbers? ”
"Here, I can tell reporter Wang for sure that what Xiao Fei wrote is a big fallacy, in fact, in ancient times, many Han people in dynasties had a tradition of naming names with numbers, not only in the Yuan Dynasty."
……
Zhou Chao talked eloquently, and after a while, he listed a lot of fallacies in "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
Wang Yanbin listened to it in his ears and nodded frequently, and he was extremely happy in his heart. He thought to himself, this is the so-called refutation of the whole skin, right?
However, since there are so many mistakes in "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", why didn't Lu Zelin and Qian Dali, two famous historians, help Xiao Feiaxe?
Wang Yanbin was a little puzzled by this.
Perhaps, the two historians just shouted for Xiao Fei for the sake of face, right? In fact, maybe they didn't even read Xiao Fei's manuscript, right?
Alas! Unexpectedly, the famous historian is also so unreliable, for such a bullshit book platform recommendation, a lifetime of fame, when he is old, it is going to be ruined.
"Thank you, Dr. Zhou, listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years! As soon as you said this, I felt a great sense of empowerment, and I immediately realized, I'm going back to write the manuscript, how about we keep in touch at any time? Wang Yanbin wanted to go back quickly after getting the first-hand information, so he said goodbye to Zhou Chao.
"It's okay, Reporter Wang is busy." Zhou Chaodao.
After Wang Yanbin left, Zhou Chao took a deep breath and said to himself with infinite resentment: "I sent out this interview, I don't believe it will be a heavy blow to you!" (To be continued......)
