These guys.

Seeing these condemnations from both sides of Buddhism, Zhang Ning also had a headache.

Buddhism and Taoism have always been the two most important religions in China.

However, the people, or the government, attach great importance to both Buddhism and Taoism.

The Chinese Buddhist Association seems to be just an association and has no power, but the influence of the Chinese Buddhist Association on the two religions is extremely huge. In particular, there are countless believers in Buddhism in China. In it, there are some heavyweights. Although Zhang Ning is not all, there is no need to fight with them.

For this reason, Zhang Ning had to pretend that he didn't hear anything, regardless of whether he condemned or not.

You condemn yours, and I continue to write my novels.

It's just a pity that Zhang Ning's non-response did not solve the problem of the condemnation of Zhang Ning by the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism.

It is estimated that the two associations also saw that Zhang Ning had no reaction, and they made the matter even worse.

Evenly, the book of Buddhism written by Zhang Ning is a book of Taoism that scandalized Sanqing and the Buddha has also become a hot news event. In particular, the influence of Buddhism and Taoism in the people is also very strong. There are some mythical figures, he is like a national hero, and the scandalization of mythical characters is like the scandalization of national heroes, and many people are also unacceptable.

Some supporters believe that although they have not read Zhang Ning's novels, the novels should also respect the facts. Buddhism and Taoism are important religious cultures in our country and should be respected. When writing novels, we should also properly handle the culture between the two religions. Regarding the opposition to the scandalization of the Three Qing Dynasty and the scandalization of Buddhist culture, I still hope that Zhang Ning can properly consider it.

In addition, there are some celebrities in the world of culture and art. They either believe in Buddhism or Taoism. In addition to their religious beliefs, they also have a certain influence in the entertainment industry. At the same time, they also have quite a few fans. When the incident of Buddhism and Taoism came out, these celebrities also responded to the two religions, hoping that Zhang Ning could revise them.

This is quite polite, after all, considering that Zhang Ning's energy is also very large, he can't be offended to death.

There are some unwelcome, no matter who Zhang Ning is, they directly scolded on the Internet.

Is there any mistake, even Chinese culture is disrespected, is it really okay to scribble like this?

Zhang Ning, don't think that if you are talented, you can act arbitrarily, you need to know that Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law.

That is, Zhang Ning, you have achieved a lot of good results in the past few years, and we are also proud of you. But if you think that after you have achieved results, you can go it alone, you can guide the world, you can do nothing, then you are wrong. Even if you are the king of heaven, there are some things that should be observed, and you still have to abide by them.

Of course, there are also many irons who support Zhang Ning.

They believe that fiction is just fiction, that it is fiction, and that it involves some facts. Buddha is the Tao is just Zhang Ning's family words, you think it's wrong, you can just ignore it. Furthermore, we are also readers who read that the Buddha is the Tao, so don't we know what the Buddha wrote in the Tao? Everyone is an adult, and they all understand the truth. Do you think that Zhang Ning wrote some bad plots, and we really recognize it?

It's just that we're just reading novels.

Now that there is freedom of speech, civilians can have their own ideas, let alone Zhang Ning.

Please don't kidnap Zhang Ning in the name of morality.

Yan zhòng supported Zhang Ning, and Zhang Ning was not at fault at all. If there's something wrong, well, we'd love to know. Is Wu Chengen, who wrote Journey to the West, also wrong, but he raised the position of the Jade Emperor higher than Taishang Laojun. For your Taoism, isn't Sanqing your highest Taoist lineage?

That's right, how can Zhang Ning be blamed for this. If this is to blame, Xu Zhonglin, the author of the Romance of the Gods, is probably also to blame. Zhang Ning has a lot of plots, all of which are inherited from the Romance of the Gods. It's just that the Romance of the Gods didn't say it so directly, and Zhang Ning came out more directly. But the meaning, it's all the same.

There are supporters, and there are rebuttals.

The two parties went back and forth, and no one could convince anyone, and in the end, they actually quarreled.

"Zhang Ning Xiaoyou, you've been in the limelight a lot lately."

filmed an episode at noon, and Zhang Ning received a phone call.

This call was made by Jin Yong to Zhang Ning, Zhang Ning was a little strange, he hadn't talked to Jin Yong for a long time.

Strange is strange, Zhang Ning pressed the answer button.

"Mr. Jin, don't make fun of me."

Zhang Ning has always respected Jin Yong and spoke very politely.

"It's not a joke, you're from the stars, I've seen it, and the details are very good. It's no wonder that dozens of countries in Asia have become popular, and many people have come to China to travel and visit because of this drama you filmed. First of all, I would like to congratulate you and thank you for your contribution to Chinese culture. ”

"Where, compared to Jin Lao, I'm still far behind."

"Heh, Zhang Ning, don't be modest first, I'm not here to praise you today."

"Eh, Jin Lao, do you have something?"

"Yes."

Jin Yong hummed, and then said, "Recently, I watched your latest work, Buddha is the Tao. Very good, all kinds of settings and inferences, can be called classics. I can only admire how you little guy has a head and a melon seed, and his innovation ability is extraordinary. It's just that the description of Buddhism and Taoism in this novel is too much. ”

"Jin Lao, I have to explain this to you."

Zhang Ning burst into tears, he couldn't imagine that the Buddhist Association criticized him, and even this Taishan Beidou-level figure was summoned. Still, think about it. Jin Yong is a believer in Buddhism, and in many of his works, he has profoundly reflected the philosophy of Buddhism. Just like his Eight Dragons, the title of this novel is also related to Buddhism.

It's just that Mr. Jin Yong's pattern is so high, how can he criticize himself.

was about to explain, but he didn't want to, but Jin Yong spoke again.

"Zhang Ning Xiaoyou, I didn't call you this time, not to blame you, nor to accuse you of the faults in your novels. Although I do not approve of it, I will not impose my thoughts on you. I also think that fiction is just fiction, and it is better not to be involved with reality. It's just that, after all, your novel has been read by a wide range of readers. Crucially, your novel has now been condemned by both Buddhism and Taoism in the mainland. I don't think it matters if you fix the book or not, the important thing is that you have to stand up and put this matter to rest. You must know that although the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism have little power in China, they have a deep influence among the people, and I don't want to see you get into trouble because of a novel. ”

Jin Yong said earnestly.

Zhang Ning heard what Jin Yong meant, and nodded, "Mr. Jin, I understand." ”

"Zhang Ning Xiaoyou, you have always been very smart, so I won't say more."

Hanging up the phone, Zhang Ning was a little depressed.

I thought that if I didn't reply, such a topic could be eliminated.

didn't think about it, didn't reply for a while, but stirred up the topic.

Zhang Ning was not afraid of anyone, but when he thought of Mr. Jin's words, he also felt that there was no need to get into trouble.

However, it is impossible to change the book.

If it is changed, then the Buddha is the Tao, and the Buddha is not the Buddha.

Moreover, it is impossible for Zhang Ning to be condemned by others, and he will change it.

But this troublesome matter still has to be solved in the end.

What to do.

Why are these two associations so twisted in their heads, and they want to compete with themselves?

Zhang Ning was a little speechless, but he couldn't figure it out, but this matter still had to be solved.

"Mr. Zhang, CCTV Director Nie Chen came to visit."

At this time, assistant Liu Xiaoming came over.

"Nie Chen, what is he doing here?"

Although he had doubts in his heart, Zhang Ning was still ready to meet Nie Chen.

In any case, Penguin Films and the current CCTV are still in a cooperative relationship.

"Director Nie, congratulations on breaking the record of your CCTV."

In the center of the crew, Zhang Ning met with Nie Chen and said.

"Tongxi, Tongxi, if it weren't for Mr. Zhang Ning's photograph of you from the stars, I'm afraid CCTV would not have had this record-breaking opportunity."

"Haha, Director Nie is really polite, by the way, Director Nie, this time I came to the crew to find me, I don't know what is important?"

"It's not that important."

Nie Chen shook his head, "It's just that I heard that Mr. Zhang Ning has encountered some trouble recently, and I want to help Mr. Zhang Ning come up with ideas." ”

"Oh, what did Chief Nie mean was that the Buddha book I wrote recently is the Tao."

"I'm afraid that in addition to this, other business matters will not be difficult for you."

"Haha, Director Nie is really in a hurry, I can't hide it, I did have a headache because of this recently. It's just that I don't have much to do about the two Buddhist and Taoist associations. ”

After all, Buddhism and Taoism are not commercial companies, but represent Buddhism and Taoism.

Zhang Ning can't be beaten, scolded can't be scolded, there are words of suffering, and there is unspeakable depression.

"It seems that Mr. Zhang Ning also encountered difficulties at times. However, Mr. Zhang Ning, don't worry. For you, this may be more difficult to solve. However, for us at CCTV, the problems you encounter are not a problem at all. ”

"Oh, Chief Nie, so, do you have a way?"

"There is a little way, but I don't know if Mr. Zhang is willing to give it a try."

"Director Nie, just say it, now as long as there is a way, I will try."

"Well, Mr. Zhang Ning, it's actually like this. I believe that Mr. Zhang also knows more about our CCTV, although it seems that our CCTV is just a TV station. However, many of the time, we represent the official opinion. In other words, basically the content broadcast on our CCTV is official. Mr. Zhang Ning, the problems you are encountering now may not be solved under so much media discussion. However, if with the help of our CCTV. I think this kind of talk will soon disappear. ”

"Makes sense."

Zhang Ning's eyes lit up, and he said admiringly, "Director Nie, this idea is too good." Then I would like to ask Director Nie to come forward and help me solve this trouble. After the matter is completed, it can be regarded as a favor for me to persuade Director Nie. ”

It's just that Nie Chen smiled bitterly, "Mr. Zhang Ning's favor, I really want to take it, but it's difficult to ask me to help alone." You also know that although I am the head of CCTV, I can't do everything. If this kind of fake public and private affairs is discovered, I am afraid that it will give rise to even greater trouble. I mean, although I can't directly help Mr. Zhang Ning solve this trouble, we at CCTV can indirectly help Mr. Zhang Ning. ”

"What do you mean, Chief Nie?"

"Let's put it this way."

Nie Chen thought for a while and said, "I don't know if Mr. Zhang Ning has seen that our CCTV has a program called Hundred Lectures." ”

"I've seen it, this show is not bad, what's wrong."

"It's good to have heard of it."

Nie Chen smiled, "I knew that with Mr. Zhang Ning's erudition, he would definitely be interested in the program of the Hundred Schools' Forum." I would like to invite Mr. Zhang Ning to participate in the Hundred Lectures Forum and do a program. ”

"Do a show?"

Zhang Ning seemed to have some understanding, "You mean, let me go to hundreds of pulpits to do a novel program about Buddha is the Tao?" ”

"Let's just say that. However, the title cannot be Buddha or Tao, it must be Journey to the West or the Romance of the Gods, or Chinese myths and legends. You can talk about the content of the program casually, I think, as long as you get on the hundred podiums, and evaluate your views on the Romance of the Gods and Journey to the West, I think that the focus of the current media discussion will no longer exist. ”

"That's a good idea."

Zhang Ning nodded.

CCTV has always represented the official, and the Hundred Forums are the authority in academia.

If I go to the hundred pulpits and start preaching, I am afraid that all the voices of discussion will be withdrawn.

This is an official affirmation of Zhang Ning's idea, do you still want to talk about it, do you want to find death?

"Okay, I promised."

"Great, Mr. Zhang Ning, we have a good cooperation."

"It's a pleasure to work with."

……

After sending Nie Chen away, Zhang Ning looked up the information of the Hundred Pulpits.

The Hundred Lectures Forum is a lecture-style column launched by CCTV in 2001, and the purpose of the column is to construct the common sense of the times and enjoy the wisdom of life. Choose the most interesting, cutting-edge, and attractive topics for your audience. Pursue academic innovation, encourage ideological individuality, and attach importance to communication and interaction. The column has a wide range of materials, covering culture, biology, medicine, economy, military and other aspects.

It should be said that the Hundred Lectures Forum is a lofty forum.

Those who can be on the platform of hundreds of schools of thought are either professors of a certain university or masters of an academic world.

To land on this forum, Zhang Ning still had some panic in his heart.

No matter what achievements have been made in recent years, in the academic world, Zhang Ning thinks that he really can't be called a master.

Strictly speaking, if it weren't for his current fame, coupled with knowing Nie Chen, I am afraid that he would not be able to enter the hundred pulpits.

However, after all, this is a forum full of academic atmosphere and very rigorous. In order to do a good job in this episode of the program, and in order to rehabilitate his Buddha is Tao, Zhang Ning decided to take a look at a few episodes of the Hundred Pulpit Forum first.

Hey, how can these hundred pulpits seem to be uninteresting.

Zhang Ning randomly picked a few episodes to watch, watched them for a few hours, and the more he watched, the more bored he became.

In the end, Zhang Ning simply stopped watching.

It's not that the lecturers invited from the Hundred Forums are not qualified, nor that they are not qualified.

Those who can stand on hundreds of pulpits, ask themselves if there is still a lot of ink in their stomachs.

However, why is such a show not good?

Zhang Ning thought about it and soon discovered the problem of the Hundred Pulpits.

It turns out that the problem of the Hundred Pulpits is that those lecturers are too didactic, or they are too big to explain.

This is like a teacher in school who talks about theoretical knowledge, and talks about a lot of theoretical knowledge throughout, and I am afraid that there should be nothing wrong with what is said about theoretical knowledge, and if you listen carefully, you can also learn knowledge. However, this kind of didactic explanation of theoretical knowledge has a headache for most students after listening to it. This situation is reflected in the classroom, and it becomes very dull.

Now it has been replaced by a hundred pulpits.

This program says it is a pulpit, but in fact it is a television program.

The TV program is not for the students, and the students dare not leave when the teacher is lecturing, so they can only sit there obediently until the end of a class. The TV show is facing the audience, although the crowd faced by this show is more high-end than the general population, and it will not be done, and it will go directly to the style of watching it. But if they feel that what you said is too preachy and not fun at all, they will probably press the remote control and change to another station.

For this reason, Zhang Ning also specially checked the ratings of the 100 forums.

0．1%。

This is the ratings of the Hundred Pulpits, and it is the highest.

Seeing this rating, Zhang Ning was somewhat confused.

The ratings of the hundred pulpits are so low.

Didn't later generations hear that the Hundred Pulpits are very popular, although it can't be compared with TV dramas, it can be regarded as a popular program. Now it's 0 at this point. 1's ratings, how do you think about it, how can it not match the high ratings.

However, Zhang Ning also quickly understood.

The Hundred Pulpits became popular in later generations, also because in 2006, Yi Zhongtian's products of the Three Kingdoms, and later Yu Dan and other famous artists. And without these powerful masters, those lecturers who can't express themselves despite having ink in their stomachs, they have been talking for a few years, but they haven't attracted many audiences.

Maybe there are still some audiences in the Hundred Lectures, and it is estimated that they are also those who are extremely fond of history and culture. But if the Hundred Pulpits only needs such an audience, then his ratings, no matter how much he uses, will not be high.

Seeing this, Zhang Ning suddenly felt that Nie Chen had found himself today, as if he had another purpose.

made a phone call, Zhang Ning called Nie Chen, who had already returned to CCTV.

"I said Director Nie, how do I feel cheated by you."

"Mr. Zhang Ning, what are you talking about?"

"Your hundred pulpits won't be a column that is about to go out of business, so you actually asked me to go."

Zhang Ning checked the information just now, and the 100 pulpits have been ranked at the bottom of the CCTV ratings for several months, and according to the principle of CCTV elimination, the 100 pulpits are likely to be replaced by other programs. After all, no matter how lofty and well-defined the program of the Hundred Pulpits is, the ratings are too low to be justified.

"Well...... Mr. Zhang Ning, how could it be. ”

Nie Chen was a little embarrassed, but he quickly said, "Hehe, Mr. Zhang Ning, let me tell you, I planned the program of the Hundred Schools' Forum." At the beginning, I had a lot of confidence in this program, and I also wanted to improve the level of CCTV programs. It's a pity that although the idea of the Hundred Lectures is good, the ratings have not been able to rise for several years. Although I single-handedly planned this show, now that the ratings have plummeted, I, as the director, can't keep watching. ”

"Then you still call me hundreds of pulpits, you won't withdraw this show after I speak."

"I don't want to retract, just like the novel you wrote, if someone asks you to revise it, you're afraid you're going to go crazy, let alone ask you to delete the book directly. The reason why I went to look for you today is to take this opportunity to help you solve your public opinion crisis. Second, I also heard that Mr. Zhang Ning is very good at program planning. Therefore, I would like to invite Mr. Zhang Ning to come over and see if I can save the hundred pulpits. ”
