I was even more furious with his unexpected reaction, "Get out, get out of the way!" I yelled at him.

"Okay, I'll get out." The son happily walked away, thinking he had seen a new father who had been reborn.

When he walked away, he turned back to me and said, "A good start, Daddy!"

I just stood there, a little confused by my gaffes. In addition to the anger at his son's faux pas,

It also has to do with the strange feelings that this girl has in my heart. I extend my deepest humility to her. And with her

Squat down and clean up the things on the ground. Her name is Herman. Amy, British, came to study in the New World of China,

Studied Fine Arts at the State University of New York. She just arrived yesterday.

"My son grew up in the Old World and only came to Northern Ireland this year. Among the young people of the Old World, ultra-nationalist sentiment is thriving, and separatism here is a public nuisance. "

I handed her a few paintings scattered on the floor, and noticed one of the paintings in her folder, which showed a man wearing a headlamp and a hard hat, with a weathered face covered in soot, and behind him was the high-rise buildings of New York.

"My father, he was a miner in Birmingham." Amy said, pointing to the painting.

"In the painting, you sent him to the New World."

"Yes, it was a wish that he would never fulfill. I chose to paint because of paintings and dreams

In the same way, you can enter the world that you can never enter in reality, and realize your wishes that can never be realized. "

"Your oil painting is very good."

"But I had to learn Chinese painting so that I could go back to Europe and live with the brush. Oriental art is rife in Europe

continent, where few people are interested in indigenous art. "

"Chinese painting should be studied in the Old World."

"It's hard to get a visa there, and it's too expensive. Learning Chinese painting is for life, and I still want it in the end

For those who paint oil paintings, our art must be inherited by someone. Believe me, sir, unlike most of the British

Again, I didn't come to China to pan for gold. "

"I believe it. Oh, have you ever been to the Palace Museum? There are many classics of Chinese painting there. "

"No, I've just arrived in New York."

"Then I'll take you, no, I insist, as a sign of humility to what just happened."

Like the Old World, the Palace Museum in the New World is located in the Forbidden City. The Forbidden City Imperial Palace in the New World

Built in the middle of the Ming Dynasty and located southeast of New York, it is twice the size of the Forbidden City in the Old Continent and is a piece of gold

A splendid Oriental palace. Two emperors of the Ming Dynasty visited the New World and lived in this palace. mugwort

Mi soon discovered that this place was different from the Forbidden City in the Old World.

"There is only one city wall here, but there are so many gates, which is far less dense than the imperial palace in Beijing."

"Yes, the New World is an open continent that has been open to different cultures for centuries.

Because of this, our feudal dynasty first fell in the New World. "

"You're saying that if it weren't for the New World, you'd still be a kingdom?"

"Haha, it's not necessarily, but at least, the Ming Dynasty won't be the last dynasty."

"Zheng He sailed to revitalize the Ming Dynasty, but pushed it to the grave?"

"History is so incredible."

Amy and I walked through the ancient palaces, there weren't many people, and our feet were empty one after another

The hall reverberates, and huge columns slowly move past us in a hazy way, as if in darkness

The giants who are watching us in the silence seem to swim in mysterious phantoms.

We came to a display case with a lot of yellowish and blackened European medieval Latin on display

Old books, there are Homeric epics, there are Euclid's >, Aristotle's >,

There is also Plato's > and Dante's >...... Many of them were 15th-century religious Europeans

Banned books in religious institutions. These are all things that Zheng He asked a translator to read to him after he arrived in Western Europe.

I said to Amy, "Look, he reads your books, and gets from you a lot of things that he doesn't have: he has a compass, but he doesn't have the precision of Europe for a voyage; He had a ship three times larger than your largest ship at the time, but he didn't have the European technology to make accurate charts...... Especially in basic science, when the Ming Dynasty lagged behind Europe, for example, in geography, the Chinese still believed in the world of the round sky. Without your science, or without the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures, Zheng He would not have sailed westward, and we would not have gotten to the Americas. "

That is, we are not as poor as we think. My self-pitying young compatriots should

With teachers like you!"

We're talking more about art, looking at the treasures of Chinese painting in museums, we're talking about Chinese painting

The oldest source, talking about the emergence and popularity of the Wild Grass School and the Blank School in China, and the possibility of the revival of the European School of Painting...... I was amazed at how much we had to talk about.

"There are not many people like you who are looking at European culture squarely, I will always wish you well, and I really want you to be the first Chinese to see my paintings in the future."

Amy may not mean anything else when she says this, but my heart is still beating a little.

I don't know how long it took, but we noticed that the hall we just walked in was a little different, the lights were bright, and the people were very good

Many. In front of the old hall, there is a tall spacecraft, which is the landing module of the Confucius lunar spacecraft

Replica. From the high top of the hall, several multicolored pillars of light descended, focusing on a glass lined with velvet

On the glass cabinet, on the velvet are many stones of different sizes, each marked with an expensive price. This is in

When China first landed on the moon in 1965, the astronauts on the Confucius 11 brought back rock specimens from the moon's still sea.

"It's beautiful!" Amy sighed.

"But they're just ordinary stones." I say.

"No, think about how far away they come from a world and how many stories they contain. Just as my father gave

A piece of my shiny coal, which has slept deep in the earth for hundreds of millions of years, what a long time, this time

How many lives can there be? These things are like frozen dreams. "

"There aren't many girls like you who can see the beauty inside now!" I said excitedly. I bought one

A very small specimen of rock with a silver chain tied to it. It can also be seen on a cut of the rock

The signature of the astronaut who landed on the moon. I gave it to Amy. She didn't want to accept such a valuable gift, but I insisted

This still shows my deep humility for the unpleasant events of the day, and she accepted them silently. in her gaze

I felt the warmth of home again, so strange, in the eyes of an immigrant girl.

After leaving the Forbidden City, we drove aimlessly around New York, just trying to prolong our separation.

Finally, we came to New York Harbor, across the water, opposite the world-famous 100-meter-high Zheng He

Resemble. One of his giant fingers pointed to the new world ahead. Now, it's dark, and the Manhattan lights behind us

The fire is brilliant, like a huge gemstone facet. Countless pillars of light were concentrated on the statue of Zheng He, making him Yi

A giant that glows blue between the sea and the sky.

At this time, someone behind us said "Hi", it was my son. "I know you're going to be here eventually."

He said. He walked up to Amy and held out his hand to her, "I humble you, Miss. I was in a bad mood at that time,

Consider that we are Chinese who have just been evacuated from Northern Ireland, and you will understand. "

"Kid," I said, "you're too sharp, it's immature, it's time for you to mature." "

I pointed to the colossus of Zheng He in front of me, "He is the person you admire the most, and you think he is the tallest and most perfect person."

Imagining him to open up everything is a big part of what makes you the person you are now. But for now, it should be made

You see a complete and true Zheng He. "

"I know Zheng He, I've read all the books about him."

"You're reading books written by modern writers, and they're only writing about ideals."

"Is there something wrong?"

"For example, it is a miracle that the Ming fleet sailed to Western Europe, why was Zheng He able to sail in such a short time

What about another voyage from Western Europe, across the Atlantic, and the discovery of the New World of America?"
