Back to the Republic of China to be a editor

Walking out of the reading room, Tang Hua said with a smile: "This is really a wonderful day, it's like coming home here."

……

"Mr. Tang, the front is Lu Yi's 'site', these buildings are all there."

Lu Xun Academy of Art?

Is this the place where Xian Xinghai composed the music all night?

Is this the birthplace of "Yellow River Cantata"?

Is this the place where Jeong Yul-sung, a musical geek who composed military songs of two countries by himself, once lived?

Tang Hua quietly looked at the buildings in front of him until two people walked towards the inspection team.

"Hello, Director, is this Mr. Tang Huatang?"

"Hello, Mr. Tang. I'm Marco."

"I'm Liu Chi."

"Ah, 'Yan'an Five-member Regiment', it's a great honor to meet two of them today." Tang Hua who reacted quickly shook hands with them.

Like the men's groups of later generations, Yan'an also has a musical "five-member group"-Ma Ke, Guan Hetong, Zhang Lu, Liu Chi and An Bo.Of course, the selling point of these people is not their looks but their talents. All five of them are creative musicians, and they are all good at using folk instruments to recreate tunes with folk music characteristics.Marco's masterpieces are "Nanniwan" and "We Workers Have Power", and he is also one of the main creators of "The White-haired Girl".The episode "My Motherland" of Liu Chi's masterpiece "Shangganling", the theme song "Heroes' Hymn" of the movie "Heroes", "Let's Swing Oars"...

"I'm actually a music lover, and I'm very happy to be here. If you don't mind, I also want to communicate and learn here." Tang Hua said.

In this day and age, information in the entertainment industry does not spread so fast. Marco and Liu Chi didn't know what happened in Shanghai, so they happily invited Tang Hua and his party into the music classroom.

"Mr. Tang studied in the United States for four years? He must be familiar with American music?" Marco said.

Tang Hua nodded.

"We at Luyi have recently adapted and discovered many folk music works, but I am also very interested in European and American music. After all, music is an artistic expression of emotion and life without borders."

"Your work is very valuable, the excavation and adaptation of national music, but in the end the work you do should be innovation." Tang Hua said, "Western music is also innovating, especially in the United States. With new forms and new ideas, New ideas...Only in this way can we adapt to this era of constant change. Ah Fei, hand me your bag."

A Fei is a member of the band brought by Tang Hua. Hearing Tang Hua's words, he handed over the electric guitar.

"This is?" Liu Chi raised a question mark. "There are six strings... Is this a guitar? But how does it look like it's showing its teeth and claws."

Tang Hua laughed: "Why does the guitar have a chubby look? Mr. Lu Xun also said, 'Chinese people probably prefer a compromise. So, this is a bit of a desire to have the best of both worlds, and to have both." Few people are caught between the smoothness and the edges and corners. But people should have an attitude and sharp edges and corners....It doesn’t matter if it’s smooth or sharp. It’s just that I prefer the latter. Destructive'."

"Okay, so it's an angular guitar," Marco said. "Can I try it?"

"Yes." Tang Hua handed the guitar over, "This is called an electric guitar, and it's really sharp. Wait a minute, I'll plug in the electricity first. After a while, you'll know what it means to be 'sharp, aggressive and destructive'."

Chapter 3, the third technological revolution

Yan'an University, Science Museum.

2 pm.

In the past two days, the slide projector brought by Tang Hua from Shanghai was finally installed and debugged. "Development Trends of Science and Technology and Military Equipment" officially started.

"Good afternoon, fellow leaders, and students of Yan'an University, good afternoon."

In a corner of the lecture hall, several bigwigs were sitting together.Tang Hua tried his best to control his heartbeat so that his voice would not tremble.

"Nearly half of the 20th century has passed. From 1900 to the present, the world has experienced profound upheavals and changes in the past 46 years. Humanity has experienced two world wars, the first socialist country has emerged, and the communist movement is rising around the world. The productive forces of human society are developing rapidly, developed capitalist countries have completed complete industrialization, and society has entered the stage of imperialism. The speed of science and technology development is getting faster and faster, and the momentum is more violent. On the whole, the development of human science and technology There are two forms of gradual quantitative change and leaping qualitative change. Accumulation and preparation for qualitative change are completed in quantitative change, and new quantitative change is caused in the leap of qualitative change. Quantitative change and qualitative change appear alternately to promote the rapid progress and development of science and technology. For science and technology , especially in the most cutting-edge scientific and technological fields, we should use dialectical materialism and a pragmatic attitude to recognize the nature and trend of scientific and technological development and military equipment development, so that we can occupy the forefront of world science and technology in scientific practice and exploration, and grasp the leading edge of competition. machine."

Tang Hua gestured to draw down the curtains of the lecture hall and turned on the slide projector.The first picture projected on the curtain was the successful detonation of the first atomic bomb in Alamogordo, New Mexico.Thanks to the news from "Times", Tang Hua obtained the first-hand pictures of the atomic bomb in this era.The huge rising mushroom cloud also caused commotion among the college students present.

"To clarify what the atomic bomb -- that is, nuclear weapons -- really means, we need to look back at the history of the technological and industrial revolutions in modern times."

"In the 18s, Britain launched a technological revolution led by textile technology, which in turn led to the first industrial revolution. The first industrial revolution started with the birth of working machines and was completed with the widespread use of steam engines as power machines. It marks the first time that humans can convert thermal energy into mechanical energy on a large scale and under control. It ushers in the era of replacing manual labor with machines. This is not only a technological reform, but also a profound social change.”

"In the 19s and 70s, a series of major inventions appeared in countries that had completed the first industrial revolution. In 1866, the German Siemens made a generator. By the 80s, electric motors began to be used in factories. The second The sub-industrial revolution was preceded by the use of electric power technology, so it is also called the electric revolution. Along with the use of electric power, technological progress during this period also includes: communication technology based on electric power, internal combustion engines, and large-scale mining caused by internal combustion engines And the use of petroleum. If we make a refinement of the second industrial revolution, there are two points: [-]. Human beings have mastered the energy source of petroleum after coal; [-]. Humans have mastered the mutual conversion of mechanical energy and electrical energy.”

"Engels once commented that during the 100-year rule period since the first industrial revolution, the bourgeoisie created more productive forces than human beings have created since civilization. And the second industrial revolution began Since then, the productive forces created by human beings have surpassed the sum of all previous eras..."

"This Tang Hua, has he read a lot of books by Ma En?" Ren Bishi turned his head with an incredulous expression, "Look at what he said just now!"

"Tang Hua lives in Shanghai, graduated from an American military academy, and is now a member of the democratic party, but he has read so many works of Marx, Engels, and his theoretical level is higher than many cadres of our party!" The chairman agreed very much Said, "Besides, Tang Hua learns from Marx, Enles and Lies in a flexible way, and there is no rote application."

……

Tang Hua on the podium finished introducing the first and second industrial revolutions, popularized the knowledge of nuclear weapons and the development process of the atomic bomb to the students, removed the fifth slide, and started handwriting on the blackboard.

"Just now, we figured out the principle of nuclear weapons. Now let's turn our attention back to the beginning. We talked about the nature of the first industrial revolution and the second industrial revolution."

Tang Hua drew a box, wrote "energy acquisition", drew an arrow to the right, and wrote a line of small characters on the shaft of the arrow: energy use.

"In the first industrial revolution, humans could use coal on a large scale and in a controlled manner, and learned to convert the heat energy of coal combustion into mechanical energy."

Tang Hua drew a box on the left side and wrote "coal", and then connected it to "energy acquisition" with a line.Then draw a box at the end of the right-pointing arrow and write "Mechanical Energy".

"In the second industrial revolution, humans can use oil on a large scale and in a controlled manner, and have learned the mutual conversion of mechanical energy and electrical energy."

Tang Hua changed a color of chalk, drew a box of "oil" and connected it with "energy acquisition", and drew a box of "electric energy" on the right side of the box of "mechanical energy", and drew a two-way arrow.

"So today, what are we going to add to this picture?"

Without waiting for the students to answer, Tang Hua changed to a third color of chalk, drew a box on the left side, wrote "nuclear energy", and then connected it with "energy acquisition".

Coal, oil, nuclear energy, the three boxes are arranged neatly from top to bottom.In the audience, the whispers of students from Yan'an University-Yan'an Academy of Natural Sciences have become a buzz.

Tang Hua didn't stop, and continued to use chalk to draw another box on the right side of the "electric energy" box on the blackboard: information energy.

Returning to the slide projector, Tang Hua picked up the sixth slide and sent it into the machine, and a few words were displayed on the screen:

"The upcoming third scientific and technological revolution, marked by the invention and application of atomic energy, computer and information technology, aerospace technology, and biotechnology, will be the first industrial/technical revolution and the second industrial revolution in the history of human civilization. / Another major leap forward in technology and industry following the technological revolution."

Below the text is a schematic diagram of Tang Hua spending one night hand-painting and then transferring it to film.In the picture, in the center is the mushroom cloud of the atomic bomb explosion, with patterns of atomic models in the cloud; on the left is a hand-drawn drawing of a V-2 ballistic missile, and on the right is a large abstract ASCII painting composed of 0s and 1s.

Chapter 4, received a royalty

"That's all for today's class. get out of class is over." Tang Hua looked at his watch, and before he knew it, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

The first lesson in Yan'an was over, but in the Science Museum, the students' discussions in twos and threes still didn't stop. Even the students who had walked out of the lecture hall were excitedly discussing the new knowledge they learned in today's class with their classmates.

The bosses...like the students, they sat around and talked in a corner of the classroom.

……

"Little Tang, wait a minute." Dong Biwu waved to Tang Hua.When Tang Hua came over, Dong Biwu opened the briefcase and handed Tang Hua a letter of silver dollars and a list.

"After each issue of "World Military Pictorial" is sent to Yan'an, we will engrave and print out the key articles in it, and print a hundred or so copies, so that everyone who needs to read in the government and schools will have a copy." Dong Biwu said, "Actually, we are reprinting your and your father's works. Because Yan'an is too far away from Shanghai, and it is inconvenient for us to communicate with you in time, we have to cut it first. We will make up the royalties for you this time."
