206 "New Youth" Sells Crazy (Sixth Update)
The article "To the Youth", under the general trend of Zunkong's retro, is like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, which shocked many people. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In this article, Gao Daquan expressed his strong desire to oppose feudal etiquette and religion and pursue the people~lord and science.
He was full of passion~ emotion and eulogized that "youth is like early spring, like the rising sun, like the budding of a hundred flowers, like the new hair of a sharp blade, and the most precious period of life."
Gao Daquan's "weeping speech" pinned his hopes on the lively youth, called on the youth to "consciously realize their fresh and lively values and responsibilities", and called on the youth to "strive for their wisdom and strive to eliminate the old and decadent losers".
But how to judge "which is fresh and lively and suitable for the survival of today's great contention, and which is old and rotten and cannot be left in the mind"?
In the article, Gao Daquan put forward six very clear standards:
One: autonomous, not slavely.
Two: progressive rather than conservative.
Three: enterprising rather than retiring.
Four: Kyushu's and not alone.
Five: Profit, not fiction.
Six: Scientific rather than imaginary.
These six standards have caused an uproar ~ waves, and countless Confucians angrily denounced Gao Daquan for bullying teachers and destroying their ancestors and betraying Confucianism.
Indeed, this is incompatible with the views that Confucianism has always promoted, and it is completely opposite to the retro of Zun Confucius advocated by Sima Guang.
Confucianism emphasizes the ancient system, the more ancient the better, what Confucius said is the decree of heaven, but what Gao Daquan advocates is obviously another set.
Throughout this article, one of the red threads running through the six standards is science and democracy~sovereignty.
Science and the people ~ the Lord is the only criterion to test all politics, law, ethics, academics and social customs, people's daily life words and deeds, all contrary to science and the people ~ the Lord, even if it is "the ancestors left, the sages preached, the government advocated, the society admired, are worthless."
This creates a fierce opposite.
Ercheng came forward and publicly criticized Gao Daquan's article "To the Youth" as nonsense.
Gao Daquan also fought back in front of people.
Sima Guang supported Ercheng in an event.
Cai Jing soon invited Gao Daquan to dinner with color.
What the world thought was a one-sided situation did not develop according to the script they imagined.
Cai Jing's strong stance did affect a large number of people who were hesitant.
There is Cai Jing to block the attack from the imperial court for Gao Daquan, and the old antique led by Ercheng really has no ability to suppress Gao Daquan.
On the contrary, Gao Daquan's article "To the Youth" quickly fermented among the people.
As it turns out, the past is the past.
If you want to forcibly miss the past, you will never look forward to the future.
Sima Guang and Ercheng have always preached how good Confucianism was and how friendly the society used to be.
However, the reality is that Kyushu's economy has been improving.
The night used to be dark, but now there are electric lights.
Life used to be boring, but now I have a mobile phone and a computer.
To put it mildly, in the past, you could only wipe with dirt, but now there is toilet paper that does not hurt your skin.
These obvious social progress can be seen by everyone.
Forcibly boasting about ancient times, that is treating modern people as white~idiots.
Gao Daquan didn't do that, on the contrary, he was looking forward to the future for everyone.
Be an autonomous person, not a slave to a bound soul.
Gao Daquan is just a powerless and powerless literati, and his black history has long been whitewashed, so no matter how Ercheng and Sima Guang attack Gao Daquan, it cannot be said that Gao Daquan fooled the world for his own benefit.
On the contrary, Ercheng, as the great Confucian of the Jixia School Palace, is organized.
And Sima Guang, as the right minister of the imperial court, is paid.
Compared with them, they are tall and complete, and their credibility is actually higher.
It's just that Ercheng and Sima Guang, who have always been high, didn't find out.
And by the time they found out, Gao Daquan's "New Youth" magazine had already sold out.
The headquarters of "New Youth" magazine is actually next to Taixue.
Zhang Zhenniang is indeed a virtuous helper, she knows the importance of Taixue to Gao Daquan, and she also understands that she must imperceptibly infiltrate the influence of Gao Daquan to Taixue ~ students, so she spent a lot of money to buy a magazine next to Taixue.
It's well spent.
"New Youth" has just been released, and it has been snapped up by Taixue~ students, and in the end, there are Taixue~ students who have bought it at three or even five times the price, and they are already out of the market.
And the article "To the Youth" soon spread all over Taixue and even all over Jiangnan.
This article has caused a lot of social repercussions.
Older people, especially older literati, are naturally bitter and angry.
But young people, a large part of the minds are agitated and can't be themselves.
Gao Daquan wrote this article, which was originally written for young people, and the name of the magazine he founded was "New Youth", and his positioning has not changed from the beginning.
If you can't adapt to the old antiques of the times, then be eliminated by history.
Gao Daquan firmly believes that in the turbulent era, young people are always the most energetic.
And their inclination also indicates who will achieve the ultimate victory.
The literary war is not a matter that can be divided in a short period of time, but Gao Daquan reversed his decline with one article.
It also made this cultural war, which was originally decided in the hearts of the world, reborn suspense.
Originally, with the allies that Ercheng had won over this time and the strong pressure given by Sima Guang, Gao Daquan should not have been able to successfully counterattack so easily.
But it can't be helped, "New Youth" sold too well.
It's so good that even Gao Daquan himself can't believe it.
In the headquarters office of "New Youth" magazine, Zhang Zhenniang rushed directly into Gao Daquan's editor-in-chief room, and behind Zhang Zhenniang, followed by Li Qingzhao, Su Xiaomei, Foyin Zen Master, Qin Shaoyou and other magazine personnel.
Each of them was in ecstasy.
Zhang Zhenniang couldn't suppress herself at all, and kissed Gao Daquan fiercely, completely out of shape.
She grabbed Gao Daquan's collar and roared loudly: "Do you know how many copies of "New Youth" sold across the country on the first day?"
Gao Daquan looked confused, of course he didn't know, he was not an immortal.
"Five million copies, five million copies, the highest sales of a newspaper ever bought in Jiangnan. From now on, who would dare to say that the newspaper industry is in the twilight? This is a gold mine. "Zhang Zhenniang can't be by herself at all.
Don't blame Zhang Zhenniang for being crazy, even Gao Daquan was a little stunned when he heard this data.
What is the concept of five million copies? Here's a very simple example.
The "Cheng's Daily" hosted by Ercheng sells about one million copies every month.
And "New Youth", one day, five million copies.
After this data was exposed, many people went crazy.
