812 [Tai Chi Bagua System of Human Society]
The morning sun in late spring and early summer shines into the room through the window screen. The branches swaying in the wind drive the light and shadow, and the shadow puppet show is staged on the curtain, adding a bit of excitement to this quiet morning.
Vivien Leigh was half-lying in the man's arms, her long eyelashes occasionally shaking, like a sleeping beauty in a sweet dream. Her sleeping posture is elegant and tranquil, outlined by a velvet blanket with a convex curve, and only half of her white and tender legs are exposed at the lower end, which invites infinite reverie.
Vivien Leigh also returned to the UK, and the day after Zhou Hexuan arrived in London, she had just finished filming "Gone with the Wind" and hurriedly set off to attend the coronation of the British king.
"Daddy, Mommy! Open the door! ”
There was a sweet and tender child's voice outside the door, and Xiao Chunxi came to call the door early in the morning.
"It's coming, it's coming," Vivien Li responded in a daze, didn't even open her eyes, and woke up Zhou Hexuan and said, "You go and open the door." ”
Zhou Hexuan could only get up with a yawn, and scored twice last night, not only was Vivien Li tired, but he was also sleepy. Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Zhou Hexuan opened the door and picked up his daughter, kissed him and said, "Why don't you sleep more?" ”
Xiao Chunxi held the tumbler in one hand and hooked his father's neck with the other, looked at the bed, and shouted: "Mom and Dad are big lazy ghosts, they can't get up at nine o'clock!" ”
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said, "Yes, Mom and Dad are lazy, children don't need to learn." ”
Xiao Chunxi was tired of being in his father's arms for a while, ran to the bed again, shook his mother's arm and said, "Mom, Mom, get up quickly, the sun is drying your ass!" ”
"It's noisy, be quiet for a while!" Vivien Leigh said irritably that she had a bad temper and was really not suitable for children.
Xiao Chunxi suddenly pouted, tears rolled in his eyes, and he complained with a crying voice: "Dad, mom murders me, mom is a big villain!" ”
Zhou Hexuan was so happy that he picked up his daughter again: "You learned this ability to sue from your sister, right?" ”
Xiao Chunxi was suddenly diverted: "Dad, I want to play with my sister, when can I see my sister?" ”
"We'll be back in China next month, and then we can play with our brothers and sisters." Zhou Hexuan comforted.
"Yay, that's great! Play with your sister! Xiao Chunxi dragged the tumbler's arm and waved it wildly.
Vivien Leigh was in a half-asleep state at this time, and she was really upset by the noise, so she grabbed the blanket and covered her head, and continued to cover her head and sleep.
Zhou Hexuan hurriedly took his daughter out and closed the door with his hand.
Vivien Leigh lived a very fulfilling time in the United States during this time, not only filming "Gone with the Wind", but also studying production with Chaplin, Bi Kefu and others. After all, Zhou Hexuan is the shareholder of Luen Mei Pictures, and Vivien Leigh, as Zhou Hexuan's woman, is extremely ambitious and pursuing, she not only wants to be a star, but also wants to develop into a more senior producer.
Busy work, coupled with the lack of a lover around to take care of her, caused Vivien Leigh to be very nervous, and the whole person became irritable and irritable. She seems to feel that something is wrong, and this trip to the United Kingdom is not so much to attend the coronation of the British king, but to give herself a long vacation.
After Zhou Hexuan washed up, he had a simple breakfast, and was dragged by his daughter to play in the garden.
As soon as he walked into the garden, he saw Pound squatting on the ground, writing and drawing in his hands, and muttering something in his mouth.
Zhou Hexuan walked over to take a look, only to see a sub-Tai Chi Bagua diagram drawn on the ground, with English words such as "material", "spiritual", "industrial civilization", "art" and "poverty" written next to it. He couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Pound, what are you doing here?" ”
Pound threw away the pebble in his hand and said matter-of-factly: "I am using the theory of yin and yang in Tai Chi to study the development of human society, as well as the decline and revival of culture and art. ”
Zhou Hexuan resisted the urge to hold his forehead, and said with a smile: "Then what did you research?" ”
Pound pointed to the Taiji diagram on the ground and said: "At the beginning of human civilization, ignorance was like Taiji chaos. Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments, material civilization and spiritual civilization are yin and yang, they complement each other and promote the development of human society. When material civilization is prosperous, people pursue profits and pleasures, and spiritual civilization will be suppressed. Then society went into decline and collapse, and at that time, people began to think again, and spiritual civilization blossomed, leading to the prosperity of culture, art, and thought. Therefore, the material civilization rises again, and then suppresses the spiritual civilization, and the cycle repeats itself and never ends. The era we are living in now is the period when material civilization is dominant after the spiritual civilization of the Renaissance is extremely prosperous. Culture, thought and art are in decline, and everyone is chasing material comforts, bringing with them a series of problems such as war and poverty. ”
Zhou Hexuan was speechless when he heard this, and he didn't know how to answer at all.
More than a decade ago, Pound began to explore social issues, such as poverty, disease, and the decline of literature and art. As a result, he hated modern industrial society and embarked on the path of anti-Semitism, becoming an ardent fascist follower of Mussolini.
What do you say about this thing?
Thinking a little too much, I can't get out of the horns.
Pound continued to recount the results of his research, pointing to the gossip cadres and saying: "This is material, and people need to rely on material things to survive." He also pointed to the gossip kun and said, "This is the spirit, people not only have to eat, but also think." Then he pointed to the exchange of the gossip and said, "This is philosophy, exchange for water, for pleasure, nourish for water, and all things are harmonious." Only with philosophy can we water spiritual civilization and guide and enjoy material civilization. ”
He then pointed out the other hexagrams, naming them as commerce, industry, art, war, science, and so on.
Zhou Hexuan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it beside him, and sighed: "Mr. Pound, I think you should finish learning the Book of Changes, and then improve your Tai Chi Bagua system in human society." ”
"That's what I thought too," Pound said eagerly, standing up, "what are you waiting for?" Let's get started, which hexagram to learn today? ”
Zhou Hexuan smiled bitterly: "I think I should rest for two days, breathe more fresh air, and change my mind first." ”
"No, no, no," Pound shook his head repeatedly, "I am very sober now, my mind has never been so clear, and the Book of Changes has given me great wisdom, and it will help me to solve all the problems of all mankind." ”
Zhou Hexuan rubbed his forehead and said, "It's good if you're happy, let's learn the Tun hexagram today." ”
By the time Vivien Leigh woke up, it was almost noon.
Xiao Chunxi threw herself into Vivien Li's arms and said aggrievedly: "Mom, Dad doesn't play with me, that bad old man snatched Dad away!" ”
"Mr. Pound is a poet, not a bad old man." Vivien Leigh woke up very motherly and patiently educated her daughter.
Xiao Chunxi said in a low voice: "Dad said that bad old man is crazy, and I am not allowed to say this to others." Mom, what is a madman? ”
Vivien Leigh thought for a moment and explained: "A madman has a problem with his head, and sometimes he will beat people. ”
"It's scary!"
Xiao Chunxi's eyes widened, and she said nervously: "Mom, let's go and save Dad." Daddy is with a madman, he's dangerous! ”
"Hahahaha......" Vivien Leigh laughed heartily at her daughter.
