Interstellar writer is a meow

After the kitten in the live broadcast played a set of cat fists and showed off the cat's handwriting, it finally got to the point.

The previous two live broadcasts mainly talked about the origin of Chinese characters, but this time, Xiao Yue should talk about the Chinese characters themselves.

Some people say that Europe also has "calligraphy" and requires "beautiful" writing, but this is completely incomparable with Chinese calligraphy.

Every type of writing pursues a fluent and gorgeous appearance. In addition to this, Huaxia calligraphy also pursues artistic conception.

"Picasso once said that if he was born in China, he would definitely become a calligrapher." Xiao Yue said, "Even people who know nothing about Chinese characters can easily be moved by the works when viewing Chinese characters. They will naturally imagine Chinese characters as abstract paintings. After all, our Chinese characters are rare characters with ideographic features among the characters that are still circulating today."

"For all characters, when the writing skills reach a certain level of proficiency, the law of the beauty of strokes will naturally appear. But this is just technology. There is an insurmountable gap between technology and art."

"Writing Chinese characters is an art. Only with it can we create a kind of artistic conception, cultivate our sentiments, sublimate our thoughts, and only then will there be 'calligraphers'."

Xiao Yue began to give examples from ancient characters, going through oracle bone inscriptions and bronze inscriptions to the characters that are now well-known to everyone.Since the irregular period of Chinese characters, the position of its radicals may change, but no matter which one, it can make you feel the "beauty of art".

This is the unique charm of knowing words.

……

He Jianfei originally just took advantage of the lunch break to watch the live broadcast of the legendary drunkard cat—as for why he was able to grab the live broadcast position, of course it was because his account was special.

Looking at it, he was fascinated, and couldn't help following Xiao Yue's explanation, drawing the ancient characters on the table with his hands.

Every Chinese character is a painting.

After comparing English and French, the poet Yu Guangzhong praised Chinese characters, "There were characters in the beginning, so the hearts of the Han people, the memories and hopes of their ancestors, had sustenance, such as writing the word "rain" out of thin air, dribs and drabs, torrential. All the clouds and rain are just like it."

He Jianfei wrote the word "rain" on the table.

He has written this word thousands of times, but never paid attention to the word itself.Hearing what Xiao Yue said, when he looked at the word "rain", he really felt as if he was sitting in front of the door, watching the raindrops pattering outside the door.

He Jianfei nodded and said, "This is the artistic conception."

Wu Yi couldn't help giving He Jianfei a blank look.

Do you only know the artistic conception of Chinese characters now?Even a good brother who grew up wearing open crotch pants, but he despises He Jianfei's layman mentality who has no sense of art.

No one knows that the leader of Huameng likes gold the most, and the most satisfying outfit for himself is a gold chain that is as thick as a thumb around his neck, and gold rings and gold wrench fingers on both hands...

Wu Yi: Do you want another gold tooth inlaid?

He Jianfei: Okay, okay.

Wu Yi: ...

Fortunately, in order to show the hardship and simplicity of the leaders of the Huameng, he cannot wear jewelry.I hope that after he retires, he will not let himself go, and really have a mouthful of golden teeth.

……

When Xiao Yue explained Chinese characters, the Chinese characters he exemplified slowly deformed in the air, adding lines and colors, and turning them into beautiful pictures.Those Chinese characters are like elves, transforming gorgeously with the music, tigers roaring out of the mountains and forests, majestic; dragons out straight into the sky, the situation changes color.

In the air of the live broadcast room, there are small paintings one after another. These small paintings are abstracted into words for a while, and then turned into concrete paintings again, just like naughty elves.

In these pictures, there is also a fluffy and chubby kitten dancing, explaining the appearance and temper of these elves one by one in an emotional tone.

When everyone was admiring the beauty of Chinese characters, Xiao Yue changed the subject and started talking about the fonts of Chinese characters.

The elves twisted their arms and kicked their legs, as if they had changed their costumes.

For those Chinese characters, changing the font is indeed changing the attire and posture of a person, it is the same concept.

"Book" is the first of the six arts, and in the history of China, it was the Tang Taizong period that really took "book" as the official assessment standard.

During the period of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, it was the period of the development of regular script and the era of writing the "law" in history.

The writing "respect the law" means to abide by the model.This role model is not only the beauty of the handwriting, but also the beautiful personality of the writer behind the copybook.

Why does regular script use Yan Zhenqing as the "law"?Yan Zhenqing's regular script is upright and straight, thick and vigorous, and he himself is upright, upright and unyielding.

During the "Anshi Rebellion", more than 30 members of Yan Zhenqing's family died in battle.After the Anshi Rebellion, General Li Xilie supported his troops, and the imperial court needed someone to persuade them to surrender and buy time.The messenger was almost dead.

At this time, 74-year-old Yan Zhenqing resolutely decided to go alone.

When Yan Zhenqing made a decision, he was dissuaded by acquainted ministers and colleagues, and even blocked by people along the way, but he still insisted on doing this "death".

The Yan family is a family of six generations of Confucianism. The Confucianism at this time is not pedantic or pedantic. They really regard self-cultivation, family harmony, state governance, and world peace as their own requirements.

Who said that a person who is useless is a scholar?With thousands of years of pen and ink, how many scholars have received the blood of the splendid Chinese civilization today?

Two years later, when Yan Zhenqing returned to the capital, she had already slept peacefully in the hearse.Five days after Dezong's dismissal, the people greeted him with tears and tears.

To this day, when calligraphers copy the authentic works of Yan Zhenqing in the cliff stone carvings, what they hone are not only calligraphy skills?They are polishing their souls and cultivating their personalities.

This is the case with calligraphy.A person called a calligrapher is not only beautiful in calligraphy, but also in personality.For example, Cai Jing, Qin Hui and his ilk, their calligraphy is also outstanding in terms of skill, but their works are rejected from the hall of calligraphy art, curled up in a dark corner, and resisted by the public.

Probably only Chinese art can combine "skill" and "Tao", just like the combination of "flesh" and "spirit".Without the support of personality and morality, it is like a body without a soul, but a walking corpse that will eventually become a piece of rotten flesh.

"However, calligraphy with spirituality was imprisoned during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In the Ming Dynasty, the imperial examinations for scholars must use the 'Guange style'. If this font is not used, no matter how good the writing is, it will not be used. From then on, the art of calligraphy I just want to be extracted from the soul, and I can no longer reflect the Tao of each person, but just become an ordinary written symbol. The Qing Dynasty continued this assessment."

"The imprisonment of calligraphy fonts, like the prison of words, has strangled the lifeline of our culture. The pen, ink, paper and inkstone have evolved into prisons, imprisoning the vitality of Chinese culture."

"Until the Second Opium War, the Qing government signed an unequal treaty, 'From now on, whenever there is a debate on words, English will always be used as justice'. Chinese characters, the only ancient language that has continued from ancient times to the present, and Chinese characters Like the nation, in the precarious wind and the wind and the turmoil of the mountains and rivers, it has experienced a narrow escape."

Xiao Yue's tone became serious.

Before he explained the greatness of Chinese characters, the audience couldn't help being proud of Chinese characters and the characters they use.They felt like they were about to swell.

And now, Xiao Yue wanted to prick them with a needle to release the bloated air.This thorn still has to be stabbed towards the hearts of the audience.

In modern times, that is to say, the ancient times mentioned by Huameng, the fate of Chinese characters is very rough.

After the Qing Dynasty closed the country, refused to learn advanced overseas culture, and communicated with foreign countries, the majority of patriots finally realized that they must open their eyes to see the world, must learn advanced foreign cultural knowledge, and must connect China with the world.

At this time, they have entered another extreme.

They believe that the old culture must be abandoned, we must fully integrate with the world, and Chinese characters are the first to be abolished.

Because Chinese characters are more difficult than pinyin, which is not conducive to China's cultivation of talents and eradication of illiteracy; because only Chinese characters are comprehensible scripts used in the Western world, and we cannot integrate with them.

Hu Shi, Chen Duxiu, Qian Xuantong, Lu Xun, Cai Yuanpei and other intellectuals linked "Chinese characters" with the spiritual cancer of the Chinese nation, and strongly supported the abolition of Chinese characters. This is the "fundamental" to save the Chinese nation.

It's just that the current situation was turbulent at that time, the Chinese nation was still struggling for survival, and the reform of Chinese characters was temporarily stranded.

The second thought trend of "abolishing Chinese characters" was when New China was established.

For the same reason, the cultural leaders at the time proposed to abolish Chinese characters again.

Scholars of writing at that time believed that writing was divided into three stages.The pictograph is the oldest and most backward script; the development of the pictograph will become the ideogram; and the phonetic script, also called the alphabetic script, is the last stage of the development of the script and is the most advanced script.

Chinese characters are naturally the oldest and most backward writing. They believe that to make China a modern country, Chinese writing must also be the most advanced.

When Xiao Yue talked about this period of history, the audience expressed surprise and expressed incomprehension.

In this era, the influence of the Chinese League is unprecedentedly strong, and Chinese and Chinese have naturally become the most influential languages ​​and characters in the world.

Although there are "disputes" about the origin of Chinese characters, there is no doubt that Chinese characters are recognized as the greatest writing.When communicating with interstellar civilizations other than earth civilization, they also recognized that Chinese characters are the most beautiful characters of earth civilization. Among the characters of interstellar civilizations that have been detected today, Chinese characters are also listed as "the most embodying civilization". .

They are proud of Chinese characters, their own language, and their country's permanent cultural heritage of language and Chinese characters.

Therefore, people in this era are totally unable to understand why the scholars with the most advanced consciousness would call for the abolition of Chinese characters.

They couldn't understand the anxiety of the Chinese people at that time, eager to find a way to make the country prosperous and strong.

The Chinese civilization is different from other civilizations. How we move forward depends entirely on groping.In the process of exploration, we may have made wrong decisions and may have paid a great price, but we have stumbled to this day, and the Chinese civilization is still alive, vibrant and radiant.

"Don't be sad." Xiao Yue comforted, "Seeing that Chinese characters are still in use, you know that Chinese characters have not been abolished."

"The Chinese government has chosen the most sensible reform plan. In addition to the text simplification work that every dynasty and generation will do, we have also formulated a Chinese phonetic alphabet program, which has added Chinese phonetic alphabet annotations, which greatly increases the threshold for learning Chinese. Lower." Just as the audience breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Yue said again, "However, when the new China was established, the moment when Chinese characters survived and died was not yet. The moment when Chinese characters were really in crisis was after the reform and opening up."

"At that time, the country was wide open, and people of insight realized that the era of computers would come next. But since the first computer on earth was born in the United States in [-] in the earth's calendar, all computer software was written in pinyin. The character design and writing can only deal with phonetic characters."

When Xiao Yue was explaining, her heart also returned to that era a little bit.

Xiao Yue lived in an era when China opened its doors and developed rapidly.Children of their age have almost witnessed the rapid development of computers in China.

Although Kanji was on the verge of being abolished at that time, he was not yet born.But it was only about ten years since he was born, such a short period of time allowed him to easily access the materials of that year.

In [-], when Qian Weichang, vice president of Tsinghua University, went to Hong Kong to participate in an international conference, foreign experts publicly declared at the conference that Chinese is too difficult to learn, and that Chinese characters cannot be entered into computers, and only pinyin can save China.

At that time, the mainstream thinking in the foreign computer industry was that Chinese characters could not be encoded.If China continues to use Chinese characters, it means giving up computers.

In 1980, the Chinese publication "Language Modernization", which advocates the Latinization of Chinese characters, declared, "The difficulty encountered by square Chinese characters on computers is like an aging patient who is dying. History will prove that computers are the gravediggers of square Chinese characters. She is also the midwife of Chinese Pinyin characters".

It seems that Chinese characters are really coming to an end.

However!Just in 20, the third year after foreign experts declared that Chinese characters could not be encoded by computer, Professor Qian Weichang initiated the establishment of the China Chinese Information Research Association.In just over [-] years, the number of Chinese character input methods has reached nearly [-].When Xiao Yue was an adult, children who had just learned Chinese characters could easily, even without being taught, enter Chinese characters into the computer.

The prophecy that Chinese characters hindered China from entering the computer age seemed like a joke, and China became the country with the fastest rate of informatization promotion.Ranked top in many fields.The popularity of computers in China has also reached a level that foreign countries cannot imagine.

"It's normal that you can't imagine. Not long after Chinese characters were sentenced to death by Western scholars, our ancestors relied on their wisdom and hard work to continue Chinese characters with difficulty. Chinese characters were judged by linguists at that time to be eliminated. , the ancient and backward writing, with its own strong vitality and rich cultural heritage, was reborn under the impact of modern civilization that was completely bred by Western culture."

"If we don't know the history of Chinese characters, we will not be able to evaluate the present of Chinese characters from a correct perspective, let alone discuss the future of Chinese characters in a reasonable way."

"It is precisely because of the hesitation and persistence of our ancestors that we understand the meaning of Chinese characters. It is by no means a simple writing tool, it is the building block of Chinese civilization. There is no reason for a great civilization to be different from its own brilliant and unique History is cut in two.”

Xiao Yue stood up suddenly, and the chubby kitten's body began to glow, slowly elongated, and turned into a handsome young man.

"In today's world, as long as we use weapons, we will die together. We can't fight wars. Today's world economy is closely connected, and there is no possibility of unlimited retaliation. Economic sanctions, we can't fight trade wars. Therefore, the competition between countries has turned to spirituality. Civilization, turn to culture."

"It seems that now that the Huameng has lost its national treasures and evidence of our history, we are at a disadvantage in this spiritual and cultural war."

"Actually, that's not the case." Xiao Yue clenched his fist with his right hand and lightly thumped his chest, "Because we're still alive."

"As long as we are still alive, the Chinese civilization will not be cut off. Only the Chinese civilization is a civilization that honors our ancestors. Our culture is carried on objects, recorded in words, flowing in our blood, and engraved in our souls. middle."

"We pass on the culture and civilization through the generations of our ancestors."

"We have encountered a more dangerous situation than now, which is close to cultural extinction and national extinction. Our ancestors survived, helped the dilapidated Chinese civilization, and moved towards revival step by step."

"Now we take over the burden of the revived Chinese civilization, continue in the footsteps of our ancestors, and continue the mission of inheritance."

"It's ours, it's ours after all. Our existence is proof."

Xiao Yue's eyes looked towards the front covered by the bullet screen, and his eyes were so focused that they were persistent, almost crazy.

"We are still alive, the history of China is alive, and the civilization of China is alive, and no one can take it away or erase it."

"Thousands of years of history, and the Chinese civilization that has been passed down for thousands of years, will let them understand what it means to hit a stone with an egg."

……

……

"Old Wu, your eye circles are red." He Jianfei said meanly, "I was moved to tears by the children?"

Wu Yi glared at He Jianfei: "I'm happy. Are you unhappy?"

He Jianfei laughed and said, "Youth is strong, but China is strong. How could I be unhappy? Do you think we should promote it and make a... um, a program that shows our Chinese culture in our daily life? You see, we usually The idioms and allusions spoken, the patterns on the clothes, the makeup on the face, etc., all reflect our historical and cultural heritage, right? It’s just that we don’t usually find it.”

Wu Yi joked: "Well said, how about I transfer you to the Ministry of Culture as the minister?"

He Jianfei made a bow and said: "Okay, okay, I am finally in your mouth, and I am a cultural person."

Wu Yidao: "Minister of Culture, isn't he the most uneducated person among the people?"

He Jianfei: "..."

----------------------

This episode of Xiao Yue's program is actually a combination of two episodes, and the time is twice as long as before.

A nearly one-hour live broadcast is unbearable for many people.

What's more, what he explained was the boring academic knowledge that many people imagined.

But from the beginning to the end, except for a few people who were forced to leave the live broadcast, the vast majority of people persisted until the end.The position of the person who left was quickly filled.

Afterwards, when the recorded video was posted on Danmaku.com, the number of viewers and downloads reached the first place on the day, and it entered the top ten of the first-day playback and download rankings in historical statistics.

The fact that an "academic" live broadcast can achieve such a result has something to do with the big news that Xiao Yue made before, and it is also closely related to the wonderful content of Xiao Yue's live broadcast.

Xiao Yue showed her face in the live broadcast for the first time, and made a gesture similar to taking an oath.

Many viewers said that when they watched Xiao Yue make the oath gesture, they seemed to be bewitched, and they also made the same gesture.

With clenched hands, beat the heart lightly.

This is a posture that everyone can understand from ancient times to the present, from overseas to domestic.

We swear, we promise, we will take over the burden of continuing the inheritance of Chinese civilization, and will proudly pass it on to the next generation of Chinese people.

……

"Xiao Yue interprets his oath with his actions, and I always feel that I can do something."

"Isn't the official media recently engaged in a brainstorming activity to discover history and inheritance from ordinary life? I studied fashion design, and I found that I will come into contact with a lot of elements related to history in my work."

"I will definitely come into contact with fashion design. I am a cook, and even my career is inseparable from Chinese history, let alone you."

"Hahahaha, of course food is inseparable from food, so many allusions are related to food."

"I can't get away from aviation... Now the way we manufacture aviation parts is born out of the lost wax method that has existed since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods."

"Of course you can't get rid of aviation, look at your logo, look at your shape design."

"Yesterday I scolded my roommate with a national curse, and he suddenly told me that this national curse existed thousands of years ago, I..."

"I made a joke with my girlfriend. The head can be broken, but the hairstyle can't be messed up. She told me that Zilu died in a knot (funny.jpg)."

"When I was in class, I encouraged the students, saying let everyone work together to find the Chinese history in life. The students said, teacher, work together from "Mozi Shangxian Tang Oath", 'Yuqiu Yuansheng, work together with him, To rule the world'. I was speechless."

……

"Speaking of which, it seems that we have to find things in our lives that have nothing to do with our Chinese history..."

"Upstairs, 'Strong people are difficult' comes from the third of Tang Bai Juyi's "Five Poems for Friends", 'Don't ask for what you have in the soil, don't force others to be difficult' (Tongue Out.jpg)."
