Chapter 463: Rapid Decay or Classics
PS: The unit has a power outage, so the update is a little late. Today I saw again a person named "The Prince of Love" voted for a one-star review of this book, I remember that this person voted for a one-star review when I first published the book, I wondered, I didn't provoke him at all, why did he catch people and bite hard? The sinister nature of the human heart is beyond the imagination of a simple person like me.
"Will "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" decay quickly or become a classic?"
Zhou Chao, a doctor from the Department of History of Peking University, gave his two-word comment, which is: garbage!
"Dr. Zhou told reporters that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is at best just a historical romance or a book, a very vulgar thing, and it is a sadness for the domestic academic community to praise it too highly.
Dr. Zhou also said that the book is destined to die quickly, and it will be popular for a year or two or even less at most, and then it will soon be forgotten. Can a thing that can only amuse people and has no profound value be remembered? That's simply impossible! ”
Zhou Chao conducted in-depth and rigorous historical research on the chapters published in the current "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", and as a result, he found that this book that has been blown to the sky recently is full of fallacies and low-level errors everywhere, so what are the errors? The reporter has compiled the following for the benefit of readers. ”
Xiao Fei's bedroom.
Dongfang Tian, Liu Ruili, and Li Jianhua surrounded Zheng Xingyu and were reading a Jinghua News.
It was Zheng Xingyu who came to Xiao Fei with this newspaper, but Xiao Fei was not there, so he showed the news in the newspaper to Xiao Fei's three roommates.
Jinghua Xinbao is a newspaper that has not been established for a long time, focusing on entertainment and leisure, and this newspaper is still selling very well in the market. But students at Peking University don't like to read the newspaper very much.
Zheng Xingyu was out of school to run errands, and when he came back at noon. I heard two people talking about a news item published in Jinghua News today. This news is a criticism of Xiao Fei's new work "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", scolded very fiercely, and criticized the book as worthless.
Zheng Xingyu heard it and bought a copy of Jinghua New News at a newsstand on the side of the road.
He took it in his hand and looked at it, good guy, there is a guide on the front page of this newspaper, and the title is: "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", garbage or classics?
Open the text of the inner page and look at it, Zheng Xingyu found it. This news is an exclusive interview with Zhou Chao, a reporter named Wang Yanbin of Jinghua Xinbao, who is a doctoral student in the Department of History of Peking University.
In the interview, Zhou Chaoda made a lot of nonsense, his tone was very fierce, and he said that Xiao Fei's "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has no academic value, and there are all fallacies in it, and it is also a big poisonous weed for ordinary readers.
Zhou Chao also suggested that readers should not have too much expectation for "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty". It's not worth it, such a thing, just don't see the best.
"Huh!" Dongfang Tian sneered, "Zhou Chao is crazy, right?" Both Professor Lu and Mr. Qian are optimistic about the book. He gave nothing to criticize, and he wanted to suppress Xiao Fei with his own strength, which is beyond his means, right? ”
"Praying mantis blocking the car. The mayfly shakes the tree, is it a person like Zhou Chao? He said no. It's worthless, it's worthless? Liu Ruili also shook his head. is very disdainful of Zhou Chao's approach.
"This is Chiguoguo's jealousy, every word is sour." Li Jianhua commented briefly.
Zheng Xingyu said with a smile: "Zhou Chao is about to graduate, he is gaining fame for himself!" Xiao Fei is so popular now, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is highly anticipated, if he is the first to appear as an opponent and critic, he will be able to attract a lot of public opinion to himself, since Xiao Fei is not good at writing, then, he can launch his own works to replace it, this is probably Zhou Chao's wishful thinking. ”
Dongfang Tian nodded, deeply convinced.
"People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, this person is famous, Feige's book is still not published, you can read it after it is published, and a large number of people will jump out to criticize it, and they will point and scold people and show their faces." Dongfang Tian also said.
"Give Xiao Fei a call and let him see the news, so that he can be prepared." Zheng Xingyu suggested.
"Well, then I'll fight now, I guess Fei Ge may already know about it." Liu Ruili said.
As he spoke, he began to call Xiao Fei's mobile phone.
And Zheng Xingyu said that he was going to take this newspaper to Professor Lu Zelin. Professor Lu's proud disciple is in opposition to Professor Lu, and when Lao Lu knows about it, I don't know how he will react.
When he received Liu Ruili's call, Xiao Fei had actually seen the news in Jinghua News.
It was Liu Xinming, deputy general manager of Feixun Technology, who called Xiao Fei to tell Xiao Fei that there was a negative article about him in the new newspaper, or that his senior brother from the history department of Peking University fired at him.
Xiao Fei didn't care much about this.
"Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is so hot, if there is no voice of criticism, then it is really abnormal, right?
In the previous life, when "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was first published on the Tianya Forum, it also caused a lot of controversy, and after it was published, many people criticized it vigorously.
No matter how good a book is, there are always people who don't like it.
A person, no matter how perfect he is, there will be people who look at him unpleasantly.
Xiao Fei wanted to see what criticism Zhou Chao had published. So he went downstairs and bought a copy of the Jinghua New Newspaper to read.
After reading this, he found that it seemed that this Zhou Chao had a lot of resentment against himself.
"Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" simply does not have any advantages in his eyes, not only has no value in existence, but also implies to the readers: I am an authority on the history of the Ming Dynasty, and I have given "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" a poisonous weed judgment, and whoever of you readers buys it and reads it is a big fool!
His intentions are really vicious!
However, Xiao Fei thought about it and didn't think that he had a direct conflict with Zhou Chao, and the few times he met, he just nodded to each other and said a word or two of nonsense.
This Zhou Chao, why does he look at himself so unpleasantly?
There may be only one reason: Xiao Fei is too good, and the leaders and celebrities of the history department value themselves too much, Zhou Chao thinks. Xiao Fei snatched his resources and snatched the support of the department from him.
So. After Lu Zelin and Qian Dali gave Xiao Fei's "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" great support and praise, and even attended the press conference of the book. Zhou Chao was completely unhappy, so he broke out.
Of course, Xiao Fei speculated that it is estimated that Zhou Chao also had the idea of criticizing "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" to promote his own name.
The human heart is sinister.
People in this world are stepping on other people's bodies and desperately climbing up!
After the news came out, many people called Xiao Fei. In addition to subordinates, classmates, and mentors like Liu Xinming and Liu Ruili, there are also many reporters I knew before, such as Meng Xidong of Huaxia Youth Daily.
Some time ago, Xiao Fei was recommended by Liu Zelai. met Meng Xidong, director of the news department of Huaxia Youth Daily, and also proposed an idea of news hype to Meng Xidong.
As a result, this idea made the Huaxia Youth Daily a big hit.
Meng Xidong and Xiao Fei also became friends.
"Xiao Fei, what's going on? That Zhou Chao, or your senior brother, is really ruthless when he criticizes your works! Meng Xidong said.
"Brother Meng, this is also normal." Xiao Fei said.
"How can this be called normal? This is out of the category of criticism, it can already be regarded as a malicious attack, Xiao Fei, don't you plan to fight back? Meng Xidong said with some anger.
"The dog bites someone. Do people still want to bite back? Hehe, Brother Meng, I don't plan to respond to Zhou Chao head-on, he doesn't deserve to debate with me. Xiao Fei said with a smile.
"And what are you going to do?" Meng Xidong seemed more anxious than Xiao Fei.
Meng Xidong also has his own plans. He really wanted Xiao Fei to reject it one by one, and then the news was published in the Huaxia Youth Daily, which was an influential controversy. It's also very eye-catching.
What is Xiao Fei going to do?
He wanted to make a statement about "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" and explain the purpose of writing this book. The audience you are facing! lest some people be bent on grabbing the pigtails of this book and babbling and attacking.
He didn't have the leisure to argue with them.
At that time, he still wanted to write something serious!
"Brother Meng, my idea is very simple. I would like to make a statement with the help of your newspaper. Xiao Fei said.
Xiao Fei almost didn't say anything at the press conference held specifically for "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", and it was all Hanmo Company, Lu Zelin and Qian Dali who were responding to reporters.
The evaluation of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" by the two historians is based on historical research, and they believe that this book is conducive to the popularization and dissemination of historical facts related to Ming history, and is conducive to expanding the influence of history among the general public.
They look at the beneficial aspects.
As for the lively language of the book, the writing is too unserious, unlike historical works and the like, they automatically ignore it.
This is because, in the eyes of the two historians, Xiao Fei's book is just a historical popular science work, which is used for the general public to read, and the requirements for it are too high, which is a ridiculous behavior.
"Oh, what statement are you going to make." Meng Xidong perked up and asked.
"I'll write it down now, and then fax it to you, okay?" Xiao Fei said.
"Okay, then you can send it to me later." Meng Xidong said with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Fei directly turned off his mobile phone, saving himself from being disturbed by the constant ringing of the ring.
After a little hesitation, he wrote down on the paper: the author's statement about the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
The main contents of this statement are as follows:
First, Xiao Fei shows that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is not a serious historical research monograph, but indeed a book similar to reading historical notes.
Second, the purpose of writing this book is to make boring history interesting, so that ordinary people can also read this book with pleasure and have a deep understanding of the historical facts of the Ming Dynasty that were emasculated by the fog of history. In other words, the author does not deny that this is a work of popular science in history, and it is a large inductive and comprehensive translation of the history of the Ming Dynasty. From the sea of history, we can sort out the clear development trajectory of the Ming history.
Third, there are a large number of authors' opinions in this book, which are the author's comments on historical facts, and belong to the words of one family, and there will naturally be extremes in them, which is also normal.
Fourth, all the historical facts in this book have sources, and at the same time, the author has also made a detailed interpretation of a large number of historical deeds, which is the result of subjective imagination, this is the writing of the novel, in order to make this book more beautiful, and I hope that readers will forgive me.
Fifth, this book is not a historical classic, but the author does not think that it will be a quick thing, and the author firmly believes that this book can withstand the test of history and will survive for a long time to come. If not, we can wait and see! Don't talk nonsense, just wait for time to verify!
Xiao Fei's statement is tantamount to telling the purpose of the writing for the readership, the author's own positioning of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", etc.
There is a side of self-humility and conceit. Finally, for example, he firmly believes that the book can be passed down like a classic.
Xiao Fei's response, which was not a response, was enough to make Zhou Chao's vicious attacks all come to naught. (To be continued......)
