Chapter 261: The Shock of the Literati (Part II)
Beijing, Yang Xingzhan's home.
Like a few days ago, Yang Xingzhan had to browse Stephen Zhao's blog space before going to bed to see if there was any update to "The True Story of Ah Q".
"Huh? Haha...... it's been updated! Yang Xingzhan laughed happily like a child, and then stared at the screen tightly, reading the "Winning Notes" word by word.
Yang Xingzhan is more than fifty years old, but he is a fierce man recognized by everyone!
This is not only the opinion of the academic community, but also the teachers and students of Jingjing University, and even the outside world.
Why do you say that? Because Yang Xingzhan has two fierceness!
He is a professor of the Department of Chinese of Beijing University, director of the Department of Humanities, and an expert in Chinese literature who enjoys state allowances.
One fierce temper, in addition to integrity, he is full of anger, whoever provokes him is not pleasing to the eye, he will scold anyone, whether it is a government official, an academic expert or scholar, or the media, celebrities, regional governments and national governments, ......he dares to scold, and he openly publishes a scolding around his neck, which is not polite at all.
For example, in newspapers such as "Southern Weekly" and "Star Weekly" in the southern part of the country, which did not deal with Zhao Xingchi, Yang Xingzhan once criticized bitterly: "National scum! A traitor who fanned the flames! ”
Another example is the criticism of the democratic elections of US imperialism: "The presidential election of US imperialism is purely an election TV series, and voters only care about watching the excitement on TV. ”
This time again, Yang Xingzhan also stood up and denounced: "A lot of people are used to being slaves, let them turn over and be masters, they are not used to it." ”
……
Etcetera. Although Yang Xingzhan was deeply criticized, and many criticized him for his lack of literati culture, he also made him famous, and almost became a banner in front of the public in Chinese academic circles.
At Beijing University, Yang Xingzhan is because of his fierceness and because of his humorous teaching methods. He has won the love of most students, and has become the most popular professor at Jingcheng University for many years. As a result, many students gave Yang Xingzhan nicknames, such as "Yang Meng", "Peking University Swordsman", and "Rocket".
Yang Xingzhan was not angry, on the contrary, he was willing to do it, because he was a man of temperament, on this issue. Yang Xingzhan even joked: "I think you should call me Yang Guo or the old naughty boy!" ”
His students laughed as they heard it.
In life, people who have been in contact with Yang Xingzhan know that Yang Xingzhan loves martial arts novels very much, especially in the past two years, and he is even more obsessed with them, and sentences or names in martial arts novels often pop up in his mouth when teaching.
Yang Xingzhan's favorite thing to watch is Zhao Xingchi's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Smiling Proud Jianghu", "The Condor Heroes", especially "Smiling Proud Jianghu", which he can't put down. But. If Yang Xingzhan was asked which character in these novels he liked the most, Yang Xingzhan's answer was "Yang Guo" in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". said that Yang Guo was very similar to him, and saw his shadow on Yang Guo's body.
asked him which martial arts writer he liked the most, and Yang Xingzhan would inevitably answer Zhao Xingchi.
Asked him why he liked Stephen Zhao's martial arts novels so much, Yang Xingzhan said a lot of reasons, and he could even talk about it for a day and a night.
To everyone's bewilderment and shock, Yang Xingzhan even made a suggestion to the school. In the Department of Chinese, "Zhao Xue" is established, that is, the theory of specializing in the study of Zhao Xingchi's martial arts novels!
Zhao Xue!
No matter who you are, after understanding this term, you will feel puzzled and shocked, and you will be at a loss. And then oppose it without thinking about it. The reason is very simple, which onion is Stephen Zhao? What academic achievements does he have? How old is he now? What qualifications did he have to make his writings a doctrine?
Fortunately, the school leaders did not agree, and the students and teachers stopped, but since then, everyone knows that Yang Xingzhan values Stephen Zhao.
Yang Xingzhan felt that it was a pity, so he didn't mention it again, but he kept thinking about how to do it.
Zhao Xue's research was not a whim of Yang Xingzhan, but after his careful consideration.
The birth history of martial arts novels is very early, more than 1,000 years ago, but it is only classical Chinese, and it has not formed a system, so it is classified as "Zhiren novels" in the academic world, that is, novels with "people" as the core; On the other hand, there is a "strange novel", with "ghosts" as the core.
The current martial arts novels have been inherited and developed since the first and twenties of the last century, and after the establishment of New China, after the vigorous development of a generation of martial arts masters "Qinglongzi", martial arts novels have been completely formed, no longer simply fighting and killing, and have begun to rise to the field of humanities and arts, becoming a branch of literature.
However, Qinglongzi and the martial arts writers who followed did not continue to deepen, and still retained the characteristics of martial arts novels in the old era, always mixed in the recklessness, and stayed at the level of simple acting for the sky.
Yang Xingzhan likes to read martial arts novels, but after reading too much of this kind of reckless way for the sky, he soon felt bored, and in addition to abandoning the book and not reading it, he was more deeply disappointed.
Until Stephen Zhao's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" appeared!
When "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was first updated, Yang Xingzhan didn't watch it. Although because of his old friend Zeng Xianwen, he has a very good impression of Zhao Xingchi, a kid who "will repay his eyes", but martial arts novels have been standing still, and even began to gradually decline under the impact of online novels, so he can't arouse any interest, and he doesn't think that Zhao Xingchi, a hairy boy, can write any good martial arts novels.
Until one day his youngest son, who was wandering outside every night, began to come home, and he was very punctual, and he must be home before eight o'clock.
Yang Xingzhan was not only surprised, but also very strange, so when his youngest son came home on time for the third time, he asked what was going on.
The youngest son's answer made him very strange again, because the younger son actually replied: "The old man asked knowingly, you can watch "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", can't I watch it?" ”
Yang Xingzhan knew that his youngest son was deeply influenced by him and also loved to read martial arts novels. But he never imagined that what made his youngest son take the initiative to go home was actually the martial arts novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!
With a strong curiosity, Yang Xingzhan began to read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Since that time, Huaxia has had one more martial arts fan of Stephen Zhao, and more professors who consciously began to sell Stephen Zhao's doctrine to others.
Yang Xingzhan was amazed by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", although the first few chapters allowed him to see the characteristics of martial arts in the old era. But as the plot progresses, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" shows more and more the sharp edge of the new school of martial arts, like an incomparably sharp sword, exposed inch by inch, and blooming with dazzling light at the end of the day, which makes people shocked and admired from the heart, and is sincerely convinced.
The wise and foolish Guo Jing, the hearty and open-minded Ling Hu Chong, the arrogant Yang Guo, and the affectionate and righteous Lu Xiaofeng ......, one after another distinct images, Yang Xingzhan was fascinated. It was better when I was in school. But when he arrived at home, whenever Yang Xingzhan saw a happy place, he danced with his hands, like the "old naughty boy" Zhou Botong.
The above is the main reason why he started to think about "Zhao Xue Research".
Zhao Xingchi temporarily closed his pen, Yang Xingzhan is a great pity, every day like a cat's paws scratching, I can't wait to go to the magic capital to force Zhao Xingchi to write a new book.
Of course. He knew that it was impossible, so he reread several previous martial arts novels.
After the news of the "locust theory in the mainland" broke out. Yang Xingzhan was so angry that he immediately started scolding; But that night, this news still brought him a little benefit, Stephen Zhao actually opened a new book!
"The True Story of Ah Q"!
When he first saw the title, Yang Xingzhan frowned, because this was not a martial arts novel he liked.
But. When he started to read the prologue of the first chapter, he was shocked at the beginning.
“…… While I have to do it, I think about it on the other hand, which shows that I am not a person who speaks, because I have never been immortal. Continue to pass on the immortal people, so people pass on the text, and the text passes on the people - who depends on whom to pass on, gradually it is not clear......"
“…… The name is not justified, and this should be paid great attention to. There are many kinds of biography, such as biography, autobiography, internal biography, external biography, biography, family biography, and small biography......"
Just looking at this beginning, Yang Xingzhan realized that Stephen Zhao was going to write a very thoughtful novel. For others, such novels are destined to be very jerky and profound, but for Yang Xingzhan, such novels are the most worthy of attention and appreciation, and the most worthy of study.
And if a person wants to be recognized as a literati scholar, he must write such an article or novel.
I like martial arts novels, but Yang Xingzhan also thinks so.
When he looked down again, Yang Xingzhan looked solemn, and the more he looked down, the more solemn his expression became, and after reading the prologue, Yang Xingzhan couldn't speak for a long time, until a heavy breath came out of his mouth, he reacted, slammed the table excitedly, and shouted: "Okay!" ”
...... the second, third, and fourth times, Yang Xingzhan read the prologue eight times in a row!
Yang Xingzhan is more and more flavorful, especially the sentence "You are also worthy of the surname Zhao", as if there is a ghost in his thoughts, which keeps echoing in his head.
It's a pity that Zhao Xingchi didn't update the next day, which made Yang Xingzhan very disappointed, and in the next few days, the tea was not fragrant, and he sighed constantly.
Unexpectedly, Stephen Zhao was updated today nine days later, which is really gratifying.
“…… I was finally beaten by my son, and the current world is really not presentable...... Satisfied, he lay down victoriously, he fell asleep...... "savored this chapter carefully, although it was only the first time he read it, but Yang Xingzhan did not laugh heartlessly like ordinary people, but became heavier and heavier, as if a thousand catties of boulder pressed on his heart.
After repeating it three times, Yang Xingzhan muttered to himself: "What a Ah Q! What a Stephen Zhao! This article is amazing, Stephen Zhao is amazing, I see what reason they have to veto me this time! ”
The next day, when Yang Xingzhan was teaching, he made a decision that shocked the world.
"Students, I have only one article to talk about today, which is excerpted from the short story "The True Story of Ah Q" by the famous writer Mr. Zhao Xingchi, with the title "The Winning ......Notes" Standing on the podium, Yang Xingzhan glanced at the full classroom, his expression unusually serious. (To be continued......)
