After establishing this "team" for revising history, Fang Xuanling, as the president, first had a meeting. Although Fang Xuanling will not be personally responsible for the specific www.biquge.info, this first time building team will naturally come over for a meeting, and all of them, whether they are really responsible or not, will also come to the meeting. Shi Bufan was also called to a meeting, especially to discuss how this history should be repaired and how to divide labor. However, this revision of history is very boring, and when everyone discusses the revision of history, they obviously encounter a problem. Yan Shigu, an open-mouthed guy, sprayed directly.

"Hmph, I have been studying history for generations, but how many people are willing to read it? We're just fooling people! Yan Shigu said sarcastically.

Everyone was speechless, Yan Shigu, this guy, is really about to retire, and he dares to say anything. In fact, this is the same as later generations, the same is true in ancient and modern times, a person has no future, and is about to retire when he is older, but he will become "open-mouthed". Because no matter how much they do, they have no future. Yan Shigu knows very well that he has no future, although he is now a Chinese scholar, but his real power is not great. If Zhongshu Shilang can't gain the emperor's trust, then he doesn't have much power. Zhongshu Province is actually the emperor's secretarial institution to a large extent, and if a secretary cannot gain the trust of the leader, where can he have any power. Now Li Shimin sent him over to repair history, obviously letting him "retire", but he didn't let him "****", which can be regarded as giving him some face, which can be regarded as a second line of retirement.

Therefore, Yan Shigu knew that his future was at the end of his life, and he dared to say anything, and he couldn't hide anything. directly linked "history revision" with fooling people.

"Elder Yan Ge, you're a little biased, aren't you? We are waiting to cultivate history, but it is for the sake of continuing to learn from the saints, how can it be said that it is meaningless? That's what you said. Fang Xuanling said.

Shi Bufan scolded in his heart, what is this Fang Xuanling doing with himself, in fact, as a historian, Shi Bufan also knows how many people will have the heart to study history? Except for those who really love the latter, few people will read those history books. Pure history books are very boring, and this is also a problem. The "history" that most people love to watch, that is, the film and television dramas of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, has been adapted by I don't know how many people, and all kinds of things have been adapted beyond recognition. Of course, it is undeniable that this kind of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and various romances can be more "down-to-earth" and allow ordinary people to really understand these things. As for those simple and boring history books, there are indeed few people who like to read them, even Shi Bufan himself. In fact, Shi Bufan didn't like to read boring history books on paper in later generations, and he relied on the Internet even more.

But Fang Xuanling directly found his own topic this time, which made Shi Bufan very depressed. He's just here to put on a name, what are you looking for me to do, what are you pulling me in?

"I agree with what Yan Ge Lao said, it is true that few ordinary people will take history seriously, especially these histories are indeed very boring, and few people will read them. But I think that if we are writing history, why should we use the boring way of the past? At that time, Sima Gong's "Historical Records" created the method of repairing history in the style of chronicles, and since then, we have also adopted the style of revision. However, although this makes history less boring, it is still not suitable for ordinary people to read. I wonder why can't we go further and continue to accept it to the people? Shi Bufan said.

Linghu Dedi was a little interested, and took the initiative to ask: "Shi Caochang, how to make it easier for the people to accept?" Although we who practice history are noble, we are also a little helpless, because ordinary people can't see our history. We are only passing on from generation to generation, but we are also facing the unknown of the public. This makes me a little helpless, may I ask what Chief Cao can do to make the people like to read history books? ”

Shi Bufan quickly gave his opinion and said: "In fact, we can make history books more interesting, so that many ordinary people, even people who are just rough enough to read and ink, can understand it, be interested in reading it, and take the initiative to read it, isn't it very good?" Otherwise, I am afraid that those general histories of the chronicles, except for those who really love history books, who will read them? We might as well make the history books more interesting, so that we can make them accessible to anyone who knows a lot of writing. If they are interested in historiography from an early age, then we will not succeed? ”

"As long as we can compile some history books that we are interested in, so that the people will be interested in them from an early age, then they will naturally go through those more complex history books when they grow up. Interest can be cultivated, let them have this edification from an early age, then they can really learn when they grow up. ”

"How should an interesting history book be compiled?" Linghu Dedi asked.

Shi Bufan first said: "Actually, I think that since we want the people to take the initiative to see, then we might as well take the initiative to meet the needs of the people." We must first figure out what the people want, what different people want, so that we can prescribe the real root of the problem. For example, some people may have the idea of commanding thousands of troops and horses when they are young, and they hope to be able to command thousands of troops and horses to fight Fang Xuan on the battlefield, so they must have a great interest in ancient famous generals. Then we might as well cater to their interests, and then compile a book of our famous Chinese generals in the past dynasties. ”

"As for those who like civil servants, they can compile a booklet of famous photos. In the same way, there are many others, including various needs. It's not about codifying too many things in one book. Those who like the changes in official positions in ancient times can carry out special compilations. Even if you like to know what famous inventors were in ancient times, including Lu Ban, and even later Cai Lun, etc., you can compile a history of Gewu based on their innovative Gewu, what do you think? ”

"We can even be used as a comprehensive ranking of people who have made outstanding contributions to the course of our Chinese history from the history of our China. Select a hundred, not limited to kings and courtiers and generals, in short, people who have made outstanding contributions to the course of our Chinese history, can also be compiled into a rough ranking, so that the real people can understand what the merits of these people are. It's not just a matter of compiling a biography in a history book, so who knows which onion they are? ”

Shi Bufan's statement immediately made everyone talk about it. Shi Bufan's method is actually a very important method, a method to improve the interest of history. For example, when many men were young, they had the idea of commanding thousands of troops and horses to scold Fang Xuan on the battlefield, so they naturally liked the history of those famous generals very much. Since they have this need, they simply take out some famous generals as a compilation of the history of those famous generals, so that they can study after seeing the history of this famous general. Even other civil officials and prime ministers, even including various inventors, people of all identities can consider writing it at their discretion.

There is another way, and that is to make a ranking of the historical contributions of these historical figures. This situation is actually a kind of "selection" that many people have, and there is a book called "100 People Who Influenced the Course of Human History" in later generations, which was a bestseller in later generations. This is a ranking of contributions to the course of human history, including Chinese. However, this influence on the course of human history actually includes Emperor Wen of Sui, but not Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, in fact, in terms of system construction, Emperor Wen of Sui was actually more innovative than Li Shimin, and Li Shimin just followed the system of Emperor Wen of Sui and then brought it to the peak. Including the imperial examination system that began to be pioneered during the period of Emperor Wen of Sui, this really affected the entire historical process of mankind. Although the imperial examination system at the beginning was not perfect, and there were even many loopholes, it does not deny him as the initiator. Everything is imperfect from the time it was first created, and then it really changes. Even foreigners praise the imperial examination system, which is called the "fifth great invention", and even no less influential than the four great inventions.

This method is actually to cater to the needs of those readers, and to meet the needs of readers, you can let them study whether there is something they want in this history book. People with different identities have different reading needs. Even history books can be further subdivided, and different people can be read according to different enthusiasts. Rather than forcibly indoctrination, the compilation of a history book into various books without dividing them according to the needs of the readers will certainly make the readers very dissatisfied. You have a hodgepodge of civilians, military generals, emperors, and generals into one book. This may seem huge, but it's actually big and not sophisticated.

Big but not precise is the root of many things, because it seems to be huge, but there is no real specialization. It's hard for those who have needs to find the right thing from here, such a huge thing, but in the end, none of them are really proficient, so it's actually better to classify them according to the needs of readers, including online novels, isn't it also divided into fantasy urban history science fiction?

"This method ......" Ling Hu Dedi did not know how to describe it.

Many people present didn't know how to describe this method, Shi Bufan's method is actually divided according to the industry, according to the contribution of different industries. Including military generals, civil officials, etc., and even various craftsmen have also been written into the history books. This kind of categorization caters to the needs of many people from different backgrounds and different occupations. even caters to the dreams of many people since childhood, as well as the ranking and selection of those who compiled and influenced the course of Chinese history, which is going to be a real breakthrough. Because of the selection of characters that affect the course of Chinese history, this is also a very important thing.

This kind of selection of 100 people was actually very popular even later. The selection of 100 people who have contributed to the founding of the country, and the 100 people who have contributed to the construction of the motherland after the founding of the country, and so on. This is an important selection, which is enough to make many people break their heads. Because many of these are their own ancestors, no one wants to be pressed by their ancestors by others.

However, it is undeniable that such a method does help to increase the interest, and this method is very interesting, and it can be used as a thing to help people improve their understanding of history and their interest in history. In the future, people can use this method to love history from an early age, to really cultivate an interest in history, and only when they grow up will they be interested in reading those real history books.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you were forced to read boring historical texts since childhood, would you be interested in reading them? If you were forced to read those chronicles and all kinds of biographical history books since you were a child, you wouldn't have much interest in reading them. If you weren't forced to read it, would you be interested in reading it? There may not be one, so I think we still have to really take the right medicine, and we will compile what the people want to see. In this way, we can change the one-pot stew method in the past, compile it according to different needs, and think of more ways to compile it, so as to improve the interest. ”

Of course, historical books and chronicles such as those of the past can be preserved, but this is for formal historians. And those ordinary people can go to those more interesting history books, and compile them according to the midnight of various characters in history, which will help to improve the people's love of history. In this way, we can make the people love history, and when they grow up in the future, they will be more interested in reading other historical classics. ”

"We can even include Lao Tzu, Confucius, and various figures from the Spring and Autumn Period in the column of thinkers, and compile them all in a centralized manner. In this way, it can be regarded as inheriting the mastery for the saints, so that the people can truly understand the prosperity of the hundred schools of thought during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and it can be regarded as inheriting the mastery for the saints. ”

Many people present also nodded, because this method is actually good, it can improve the interest of history, it is not so boring, and everyone is interested in studying history books. Otherwise, there are really few people who like to read the boring history books in the past, and no one likes to read them when they are compiled by everyone. The saddest thing about an author is that no one reads the books he writes, not even a single reader. The same is true of the compilation of these history books, there are too few readers, and no one reads them when they compile them, so of course they feel uncomfortable.

If there are many readers, they will be able to gain fame and gain greater benefits by compiling history.

"I am against it, I firmly oppose the compilation of history in this way, and the compilation of history in this way is blasphemy against the ancients, and it is extremely disrespectful to the ancients. So I'm against it, I'm categorically against such a compilation of history. Chu Suiliang suddenly shouted.
