Although cultivating the truth and seeking the Tao is Taoist, Zhang Qiuxi only borrows this form to tell the story, and the core has nothing to do with Taoist thought, what she expresses is the Tao at the philosophical level, that is, Taoist doctrine. The two are homologous but also have strict differences, and cannot be generalized.

From these levels, the discussion breaks away from religion and is no longer so narrow, although more people still think that this is a philosophical novel, a philosophy without ♂ this symbol. Even the most devout religious believers will not be offended by using philosophy to discuss religious issues and express their own opinions.

Although I don't agree with your point of view, I swear to defend your right to speak, people pay attention to this, and Zhang Qiuxi didn't attack anyone, so even if there are different opinions, they are discussing it very rationally, and there is no intensification of contradictions.

"The Road is Endless" continues to sell well in the European and American markets, and there is no negative news under the heated discussion, Han Xue's mother and daughter are completely relieved, Zhang Qiuxi said: "Actually, I really didn't expect to be interpreted into this connotation, but now that I think about it, it's the past." ”

In the novel, the biggest contradiction is the different understanding of the Tao, and the embodiment of this concept is indeed the same as religion, which cannot be said to be the reader's interpretation of the kingdom, but she herself did not realize it when she wrote it. Writing is not what the author himself realizes is his own thoughts, on the contrary, the unconscious story is the ultimate truth and deep-rooted.

▽ Just like the current Celestial Empire, you may not believe in Buddhism or learn any Confucian culture, but it does not mean that you have not been influenced by these two. For more than 2,000 years, these have actually been integrated into the blood. The impact has long become invisible, but it is not conscious of itself. The two are actually almost the same concept.

Zhang Qiuxi yawned and said, "Speaking of which, it is actually that Westerners are too petty. If the whole world has the same attitude towards religion as the people of the Celestial Empire, you don't have to worry about it at all. With such a long history, the Celestial Empire has never caused any struggle because of religion. ”

It is inconceivable that in the Middle Ages in Europe, religion could even be above the regime. The Crusades were carried out a total of eight times, which one was not a heavy loss, and although the Celestial Empire, Dao, Confucianism, etc., did not have a lack of war of words, it was limited to this, and did not cause any war.

"It's really better. But perhaps it's because they don't care about religion that they have become faithless now. "The whole world says that the people of the Celestial Empire have no faith, Han Xue seems to have the same opinion, and Zhang Qiuxi also thinks it is right.

In fact, she thinks that the so-called faith does not have to be a religious form, and that it can be believed in Taoism (Taoist doctrine) or in chivalrous spirit, just as it cannot be said that Japanese bushido is not a religion. But the problem is that the people of the Celestial Empire now don't believe in anything except money, from the heart-wrenching Xiao Yueyue incident to the old man who fell to the ground and no one dared to help him, there are similar discussions.

"I think Ah Qiu's biggest improvement is in this area, and the sales figures are not as good as using his own thoughts to guide readers. If I could only be said to be a fiction writer before, I can now be said to be a literati. Li Yue said with a smile again.

In the Celestial Empire, the definition of literati was also very sacred, and it was not necessary to be knowledgeable and literate to write and write to be considered literati. To be literate, you must also be virtuous, and this virtue does not only refer to one's own morality. Establish a heart for heaven and earth, and establish a life for the people. For the past sages to continue learning, for the eternal peace. This is the real literati.

The Taoist thought that Zhang Qiuxi understands in "The Tao is Endless" may make some readers understand something. and then affect his words and deeds, etc., but this is still far away, Zhang Qiuxi waved his hand and said: "Xiao Yueyue, if others say this, I will think that they are making fun of me." ”

"Our family Aqiu is actually humble." Han Xue put on a very surprised expression, in fact, although Zhang Qiuxi is usually very out of tune, he has always had a very low posture towards something very sacred.

"It's not just me who thinks so, this novel has been sublimated from the level of entertainment to the level of philosophy and culture, but there are too many interpretations and comments from these other people, and we don't need to paraphrase them." After Li Yue expressed his thoughts, he didn't say much, no matter what, Zhang Qiuxi was still that Zhang Qiuxi.

"It seems that I, the author, have fallen into the inferior, and I only have to think about some more utilitarian things." Zhang Qiuxi looked a little ashamed and said: "After the last volume of the English version was released, Warner Bros. contacted me again, wanting to buy the adaptation rights of this novel. ”

Needless to say, Zhang Qiuxi must have refused, they had already discussed this matter, and Han Xue's mother and daughter continued to listen. Zhang Qiuxi continued: "After I politely refused, they took a step back and said that they could cooperate, and even said that they were responsible for contributing money and efforts, and then everything was mine." ”

Han Xue nodded and said: "This is definitely very sincere, it is not easy for such a big company to do this, and it also shows that they still respect you the same, and they really care about this novel." ”

If you don't care, you don't have to spend such a big price, if that's the case, you should gladly agree, there is no problem for the Hollywood team to shoot such a story, since Warner Bros. said that she has the final say, then it is completely possible to use all the actors of the Celestial Empire to shoot in China, so that there will be no disobedience, and there will be no story like "The King of Kung Fu" that uses the story of the Celestial Dynasty star Celestial Empire to interpret the core of Hollywood.

However, Zhang Qiuxi still can't accept letting a Hollywood director direct such a story, and readers definitely can't accept it, this is a complex, for example, one day the TV series "Journey to the West", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and the like, if the director is a foreigner, the audience will definitely have to complain.

"Anyway, I decided from the beginning, so I didn't think much about it and refused." At present, all the possibilities of a remake have been denied, and this fact has long been accepted, so it is completely possible to put it aside for now.

"Hopefully it won't prejudice Warner Bros. against you, but it shouldn't be possible." Han Xue just said this, and immediately felt that he was a mediocre person disturbing himself, this is simply impossible, at least although Zhang Qiuxi did not authorize them, he did not give it to others.

"In addition to copyright, it has also won a lot of awards, and it seems that the aftermath has not been able to calm down recently." Zhang Qiuxi said this with a look of embarrassment. (To be continued......)
