Rebirth 2009: Synthetic God

When there was still a little afterglow of sunset, tables and chairs were placed on the beach in front of the hotel, and a bonfire was built.

The people who accompanied the Ryukyu group played on the beach for an afternoon, exhausted all their energy, and were hungry, so they were particularly looking forward to the bonfire dinner.

Ong Chang Zhixiong appeared again with the Ryukyu management team, but everyone changed into casual clothes. The older ones wore polo shirts, and the younger ones wore floral shirts, which was also a Ryukyu feature.

Zhou Rui, Ong Chang Zhixiong, and Bao Guilong chatted in a corner of the beach, and the others gathered in twos and threes, waiting for the party to start.

Shan Chunyuan scratched his chest. He felt that there was sand in his chest hair, which seemed to have not been washed clean just now: "This scenery is really nice. People who will be assigned to the Kashou Rocket Base in the future will also be very cool."

Che Gan nodded: "Yes, it makes me want to apply for it."

"By the way, you have been missing recently. What are you busy with?"

Che Gan thought of the learning machine in the No. 6 plant. The content of this project cannot be disclosed yet, but it does not prevent him from showing off.

"I am busy reciting ancient poems."

Shan Chunyuan's brain was stuck: "What the hell!"

Che Gan came up with a poem on the spot: "Farewell at Jingmen Crossing, Li Bai, crossing the far Jingmen, coming to travel from Chu State"

Shan Chunyuan had never heard of it but it seemed to be the case.

"Brother, I thought you were joking.?"

"Early Cold on the River, the trees are falling and the geese are flying south, the north wind is cold on the river."

"Ah?"

"Hearing the army taking back Henan and Hebei, the news came from the outside that Jibei was taken back, and tears filled my clothes when I first heard it."

"."

"Liangzhou Ci, one of the two poems, the Yellow River is far away between the white clouds, and there is a lonely city and ten thousand feet of mountains"

Shan Chunyuan's cerebellum has shrunk.

On the other side, Li Wenqian and Han Ziyin did not surround Zhou Rui, who seemed to be talking about business, and chose to get together with Fu Rui's female employees.

Those who are high enough in the company know the identities of these two people, and those who are not high enough should know it today, so they are particularly polite to the boss ladies.

"Teacher Qian, this small cake is good, I helped get one."

"Dr. Han, your skirt is really beautiful~ Where did you buy it? It's expensive, right?"

By the way, Han Ziyin had become a doctoral student half a month ago with "Liu Yao Materials" as a private achievement. On the way here, everyone had reached a consensus on how to address her.

Although the two were not interested in small talk, they maintained basic courtesy and were considered to be in a good mood.

A smiling face came in from nowhere. Xinyuan Yui held a small notebook and said in Chinese with a heavy accent: "Teacher Qian, I am your big fan and I like your songs very much. Can you give me an autograph?"

Li Wenqian swallowed the small cake in her mouth, took the small notebook and started to sign: "Hello, I have watched your drama before."

In fact, no one knows this person.

She actually doesn't have many opportunities to give autographs, mainly because she has been quietly making music and rarely appears in activities.

"Have you heard my songs, Ms. Xinyuan?"

"I heard them in Japan before, and I often heard them when I learned Chinese. You are also a famous singer in Japan."

Li Wenqian didn't know whether it was true or not, but she still politely invited the other party to sign.

The bonfire party officially began, with hundreds of people participating, almost occupying the entire beach in front of the hotel.

Some were cooked on the spot, and some were prepared in the kitchen and served.

The Ryukyu side also invited a local band to play the whole process not far away. It is said that it was quite famous in Ryukyu before the disaster, and all the music was cheerful and leisurely.

Zhou Rui handed his two buckets of seafood to the barbecue chef, and he didn't grill it himself after all.

Everyone drank a little wine, but basically no one was drunk.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhou Rui and Bao Guilong spoke as representatives in turn.

Weng Chang Zhixiong arranged an extremely interesting folk performance, "Ryukyu Lion Dance".

Even if you think about it with your heels, you can know that this is derived from Chinese culture. In fact, there has been a habit of lion dance here for hundreds of years, which follows the migration of residents from Dong Province and Fu Province.

Weng Chang Zhixiong introduced it in a rhythmic way, talking about the common roots of Ryukyu and China, which aroused the interest of the Chinese side and applauded happily.

As a result, the lion dance silenced everyone as soon as it came on.

This is so abstract

Li Wenqian was clapping her hands at first, but gradually she couldn't clap anymore.

As a native of Dong Province, it is really hard to comment.

Lv Xubo, who was sucking oysters, coughed and almost sucked the whole oyster into his throat.

Wild dog? Hippopotamus? Red deer?

The originally enthusiastic applause immediately dropped a lot, but soon everyone realized that this was impolite and applauded again.

In terms of form, it is generally a group of two, with a lion head and a lion tail, dancing to the drums and music, but compared with the lion dance in China, the Ryukyu lion dance is much simpler in terms of movements, without much sense of rhythm, and mainly shaking the head.

It's like having ADHD.

Zhou Rui touched his chin and made a rough guess.

The origin must be immigrants from Dong Province and Fu Province, but Ryukyu's productivity in the past could not keep up, whether it was textiles or dyes, it could not meet the standards. It is estimated that the earliest ones who came were not necessarily masters who knew the business in China, but might just be imitations of villagers and fishermen who missed their hometown.

With what they had, it ended up like this.

While clapping, Onaga Shih-hsiung explained, "Ryukyu has worshipped lions since ancient times. Do you remember the royal villa you stayed in last time? The two stone lions at the door have a history of hundreds of years."

Zhou Rui was shocked. Is that a lion?

I didn’t react for over a year!

Ong Nagashio sighed: "Lion dance originated from China, and later became a custom in Ryukyu. It was imitated by the Japanese during the colonial period. Now there is a 'Japanese lion dance'. There is also Tang Shou, which is the same, and was adopted by the Japanese." After people took it away, it was changed to karate.”

Bao Guilong's eyes widened. He knew that karate came from Tang Shou, but he really didn't know that Tang Shou came from Ryukyu.

That makes sense

In fact, as China's "model vassal state" since ancient times, and a land of the same species, before being completely colonized in 1879, the inheritance of Chinese culture was the most thorough and comprehensive, and it was far more "China-like" than other surrounding countries. ”, “Admiration for China”.

Dragon boat racing, lion dancing, worshiping Confucius, celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival and Double Ninth Festival, and playing music with pipa and guzheng

After being colonized, many folk cultures were absorbed by Japan, and then their names and surnames were gradually changed, becoming Japanese characteristics.

"There is also 'Sanxian'. After being taught it, the world only knows 'Shamisen', but they don't know that Shamisen is 'Ryukyu Shashin', which comes from 'Chinese Sanxian'. This is completely plagiarizing folk culture, but it's a pity that we are just No one cares about the ‘natives’ in the eyes of the Japanese.”

Bao Guilong felt that Ryukyu was really ill-fated.

I learned so much, but it all got stolen by the Japanese.

I used to think that although Xiaoli was annoying, at least he didn’t steal culture like Korea and had his own way.

Those who dare to steal are all from Ryukyu!

Take into account the architectural style and text.

The only difference between this and Korea is probably that they steal earlier.

Before Bao Guilong came to Ryukyu, he still felt that people here were "returning to their hearts" a little too quickly, and felt that the "Reconstruction Committee" was exaggerating.

Looking at it now, the foundation is really good.

Of course, the timing was perfect.

After figuring it out, Bao Guilong increased his intensity and gave warmer applause to the abstract lion dance in front of him.

Soldiers always prefer to expand territory, and it is a matter of pride to be able to bring places that were originally within China's sphere of influence back under actual control.

After the lion dance performance, there was another folk dance. Zhou Rui actually saw some traces of British singing and dancing and Nuo culture.

Of course, like the lion dance, the costumes and colors are also relatively abstract.

Keep it simple because it's crude. Keep it simple because it's crude.

In fact, Ryukyu has always retained these things. Zhou Rui didn't see them last time. In fact, Ryukyu was in a mess at that time and there was no way to fix it.

This time, Weng Changzhixiong made all arrangements, including a "palace performance" said to be held in two days.

In order to strengthen communication between the two parties, Zhou Rui asked Weng Changzhixiong to repeat what he just said in public.

Many of the entourage this time will stay directly at the "Kashou Rocket Base" and become Furui Group's employees in Ryukyu. Knowing their origins will be good for them to integrate here.
