The road to becoming a god of Chinese scholars

After the military training, Yu Juexiu and the others will have a one-week vacation, allowing them to have a good rest and prepare for formal university life.

During this one-week holiday, most of the students did not go home, but stayed in the school, familiarized themselves with the campus, and went to famous places in the imperial capital.

As soon as Yu Juexiu's military training was over, he was interviewed by the national television international channel.The subject of this interview is, on the one hand, the Fields Medal to be held in October, and on the other hand, the authenticity of the "Preface to the Lanting Collection" that he presented to the Palace Museum.

The host first inquired about Xia Yu's military training with concern, and asked him if he had gained anything from this military training, or if he had anything more enjoyable.

Yu Juexiu said that the military training was very happy and he learned a lot.The most important thing is that the thinking of the whole person has changed. They feel that their generation needs to learn better and also need the same qualities as soldiers, so that they can be useful to the country.

After chatting about military training for a while, the host entered the topic.

"In another month, the Fields Medal will start. How do you feel? Are you looking forward to or excited?"

Yu Juexiu: "Expectation and excitement are for sure." Although people around him said that he would definitely win the Fields Medal this time, he still had some expectations in his heart.

Host: "If you win the Fields Medal this time, you will be the youngest winner in the world and the only one in China who won the Fields Medal." In fact, there were two Chinese who won the Fields Medal before. Award, but they are Chinese, not really Chinese.

Yu Juexiu: "It would be a great honor to win the award."

Host: "You have solved two mathematical conjectures so far, will you continue to solve other mathematical problems?"

Yu Juexiu: "Yes, I discussed the BSD conjecture with Professor Nelson some time ago, and I found it very interesting. I should study the BSD conjecture next. However, my current focus is to study physics well."

Moderator: "You have achieved certain achievements in mathematics, do you want to achieve some achievements in physics next?"

Yu Juexiu: "It's natural."

Host: "In terms of physics, have you ever thought about contributing to the country's aerospace industry?"

Yu Juexiu: "Of course I have thought about it. If I can contribute to the country's aerospace industry, I will not be in vain as a Chinese." Over the years, Huaguo has invested a lot in aerospace research, and has made great achievements. It's getting brighter and brighter.As a native of China, he also studied physics, so he naturally wanted to contribute to the country's aviation industry.

Host: "I expect you to achieve something in physics, and I also look forward to seeing you contribute to the country's aviation industry."

Yu Juexiu: "Thank you."

Host: "Some time ago, you did something that caused a worldwide sensation."

Yu Juexiu: "You mean that I donated the "Preface to the Lanting Collection" to the Palace Museum."

Host: "Yes, the sudden publication of Wang Xizhi's original "Preface to the Lanting Collection" shocked the world. After all, it has been rumored that the original "Preface to the Lanting Collection" has been lost. Why would you want to present the original "Preface to the Lanting Collection" to the Forbidden City? Museum, after all, this is your family heirloom?"

Yu Juexiu: "Actually, I didn't want to show it. After all, our family has quietly passed down the original "Lanting Collection Preface" for hundreds of years, but because of too long time, the original "Lanting Collection Preface" appeared If the dilapidated and damaged condition continues to be inherited by our family, I am afraid that it will be destroyed in a short time, so I thought about it and decided to take it out and hand it over to professionals for preservation and protection." When Mr. Wang Xizhi gave it to him, the "Lanting Collection The Preface is intact, but when it is taken out of the system, it becomes worn and damaged as if it has been baptized for a thousand years. Otherwise, no one would believe that the brand new Preface to the Lanting Collection is authentic.

Host: "You also donated it to the Palace Museum in order to pass on the "Lanting Collection Preface" better."

Yu Juexiu: "Yes, our family has passed it down for hundreds of years, and we should show it to the people of the whole country to witness the authenticity of the "Lanting Collection Preface"."

Moderator: "It's amazing that you have such an idea."

Yu Juexiu: "I don't present it to the Palace Museum to claim credit or anything, but I think it shouldn't be destroyed in the hands of our Yu family."

Host: "Do you know how your ancestors got the original "Lanting Collection Preface"?"

Yu Juexiu: "I heard from my grandfather that an ancestor of my family bought it from a calligraphy and painting seller. The calligraphy and painting seller regarded the original "Lanting Collection Preface" as a fake. After all, at that time many people copied "Lanting Collection Preface" and copied it. It is very similar. The ancestors did not recognize it as the original work at first, but felt that the copying of this copy had the charm of the calligrapher Wang Xizhi. After buying it back, he observed and studied it every day, and then found that it was the authentic work of "Lanting Collection Preface". Just treat it as a family heirloom." Before taking out "Lanting Collection Preface", Yu Juexiu had already finished the story, and it was perfect, without any flaws.

Host: "Your family regards the original "Lanting Collection Preface" as a family heirloom, but you have never sold it. It is also very remarkable."

Yu Juexiu: "There are family precepts. If future generations sell the original "Lanting Collection Preface", they will be severely punished. Besides, people in our family have the arrogance of scholars, and they would rather starve to death than sell it. The original copy of "Lanting Collection Preface" was sold."

Host: "Thanks to your family's arrogance, otherwise the original work of "Lanting Collection Preface" may be lost or have a rough fate."

Yu Juexiu: "Perhaps my family just didn't want the original "Lanting Collection Preface" to have the same fate as human beings, so they secretly hid it."

Host: "Your calligraphy is very good. Did you practice copying the original works of "Lanting Collection Preface" since you were young?"

Yu Juexiu: "No, the original copy of "Lanting Collection Preface" is a treasure, so how can it be taken out casually for children to copy. I am copying Wang Xizhi's copybook."

Host: "Copying Wang Xizhi's copybooks?"

Yu Juexiu realized that he had slipped his tongue, and his expression became stiff, "Then..."

Seeing Yu Juexiu's expression, the host immediately reacted, and exclaimed in disbelief: "Xiaoyu, you don't have a copybook written by Wang Xizhi, the sage of calligraphy, right?"

Yu Juexiu quickly waved his hand: "No, the copybook I copy is from someone else's copybook, the sage of calligraphers, Wang Xizhi."

The host didn't quite believe Yu Juexiu, and looked at Yu Juexiu suspiciously: "Really?"

Yu Juexiu nodded quickly: "Of course it's true. If you think about it, if it's Wang Xizhi's authentic copybook, it's more than 1000 years old. How could it be done well." Fortunately, he thought quickly and found a reason to evade it.

After hearing this sentence, the host felt that Yu Juexiu was right, and the doubts in his heart dissipated instantly.

Next, the two chatted for a while about the authenticity of "Lanting Collection Preface".

The entire interview lasted 10 minutes. Before the end, the host asked Yu Juexiu for a picture and gave it to GuoTV International Channel.

Yu Juexiu wrote in cursive the four characters "Rating Changhong", which is magnificent and majestic.

While the host praised it as a good calligraphy, he said that Yu Juexiu's cursive script really had the charm of calligrapher Wang Xizhi.

As soon as Yu Juexiu left the national TV international channel, he was immediately invited by another staff member to the office of the national TV set.

State TV One is planning to do an entertaining variety show about antiques, and would like to invite Yu Juexiu as the guest of the first episode.

After Yu Juexiu listened to the director's introduction, he agreed without saying a word.

The director said that the first episode of the program will be recorded in the next few days, and Yu Juexiu will be notified at that time.

Just when Yu Juexiu was about to leave, Director Chang, who was in charge of the Spring Festival Gala, approached him.

"Xiaoyu, it happens that you are in the national TV station, so I will come directly to you."

"Director Chang, what do you want from me?"

Director Chang didn't go around the bush, and said straight to the point: "Of course I'm looking for you to invite you to this year's Spring Festival Gala. I don't know if you agree or not?"

Yu Juexiu was frightened by this sentence, opened his eyes slightly, with a surprised expression on his face, and pointed to himself: "You want me to go to the Spring Festival Gala?"

Director Chang was amused by Yu Juexiu's unbelievable appearance: "You are now a famous person in the world and the youngest mathematician. It is normal for me to invite you to the Spring Festival Gala."

"But, I don't have any talents."

Director Chang heard what Yu Juexiu said, and smiled helplessly: "Xiaoyu, you are too modest, you are proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."

When Yu Juexiu heard this, he could only show an embarrassed yet polite smile: "Director Chang, what do you want me to do?"

"Guqin, when the time comes, you will collaborate with several Chinese music masters on a piece of music." The program of the Spring Festival Gala is already in preparation, and many programs and performers have been confirmed.

"Okay, no problem." Yu Juexiu agreed very readily.

"Then it's settled. I'll call you during the rehearsal."

"Director Chang, you can call my assistant directly, I'm afraid I'll forget about my phone when I'm busy."

"Okay, give me your assistant's phone number."

Yu Juexiu told Director Chang Lin Yuansen's cell phone number, and then chatted with Director Chang for a while before leaving the building of State TV.

Lin Yuansen drove to Yu Juexiu, and he happened to tell Lin Yuansen about the two programs he had just received.

"I thought it was time for the director of the Spring Festival Gala to invite you to the Spring Festival Gala, and sure enough." Lin Yuansen was not surprised that Yu Juexiu was invited to the Spring Festival Gala, because Yu Juexiu had done a lot of things this year, and several of them were It is a sensation all over the world.

"I didn't expect that I would be invited to the Spring Festival Gala." Yu Juexiu felt quite surprised.

"Xiaoyu, you are very popular now, and you are popular all over the world." Lin Yuansen said while driving, "I have received many invitations from foreign TV stations, variety shows, magazines, and even TV dramas and movies. However, I was rejected."

Yu Juexiu nodded: "I don't have time to go abroad to get these now."

Lin Yuansen said: "On the one hand, it's because you don't have time, and on the other hand, it's because it doesn't match your image."

Yu Juexiu asked curiously, "Brother Sen, what do I look like?"

Lin Yuansen said with a smile: "Of course you are a genius mathematician and a future scientist, so your image must be maintained."

Yu Juexiu was amused by Lin Yuansen's words: "I didn't expect my image to be so tall."

"You are a genius mathematician, and this identity is enough to be tall enough."

"Okay." Yu Juexiu didn't have a strong sense of himself as a mathematician, so he didn't think he was anything special.

"Oh, by the way, the Fields Medal has already sent an electronic invitation letter." Lin Yuansen said, "This year's Fields Medal will be held on October [-]th, so we can go there two days in advance."

"Where is it this year, New York?"

"It will be held in Munich, Germany this year." Lin Yuansen thought of a piece of news he had heard before, "If you win the Fields Medal this year, the next Fields Medal will most likely be held in China." No one has won the Fields Medal, so it has never been held in Huaguo.

"Really? If the next Fields Medal is held in China, no matter what, I will win it again."

"If you win the Fields Medal next time, it will be really big."

"In the past four years, I have to work hard." Yu Juexiu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Lin Yuansen thought Yu Juexiu was joking, and followed his words: "Come on."

Then, the two chatted about other things.

Yu Juexiu didn't ask Lin Yuansen to send him to the Stellar Technology Company, but sent him back to the villa directly.

When I got home, it was still very early, and it was a few hours before Fu Jueheng got off work. Yu Juexiu directly entered the system and continued to participate in the Confucianism assessment.

During this period of time, Yu Juexiu examined all the Four Books and Five Classics, and the next one was to assess the remaining eight classics of the Thirteen Classics.

Today, Yu Juexiu was assessing the "Book of Changes", and Yuan Tiangang only asked Yu Juexiu to test the content of "Book of Changes", and did not ask him to do fortune-telling.

After finishing the "Book of Changes" exam, Yu Juexiu went to find Wu Daozi. Today he was going to practice copying the murals of Buddha statues in the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang.This is a huge project, and Yu Juexiu felt that it would take at least several decades for him to finish copying all the murals of Buddha statues.

The system completely imitates the situation in Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, but there is nothing on the walls, waiting for Yu Juexiu to paint on these blank walls.

Wu Daozi asked Yu Juexiu not to change the original wall, and let him paint according to the wall.Some walls are not clean, some have cracks, some are uneven, and some have some strange textures. Yu Juexiu has to draw creatively based on these things on the walls.

Yu Juexiu first painted Buddha statues from the Tang Dynasty. At this time, the Buddha statues had full faces, plump bodies, and well-proportioned body proportions.It is not the same as the current Buddha statue.

In fact, the characteristics of the Buddha statues of each dynasty are somewhat different, so to draw the Buddha statues of each dynasty well, you must know their characteristics, otherwise it is easy to draw mistakes.

Yu Juexiu was sitting on the ladder, dressed in gray staff, with a gray turban wrapped around his head, and was painting on the blank wall with a brush in his right hand.

Before formally painting, he will first draw lines on the wall, and then add them bit by bit.

Yu Juexiu has just finished drawing the lines of the Tathagata Buddha, and now he is starting to color it.There is another characteristic of Buddha statues in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the gilding is reddish, in fact, the color is more gorgeous.

Wu Daozi sat at the side, drinking tea leisurely, while instructing the heartbroken Xu to paint murals.

Coloring a mural is not an easy task. A slight inappropriate use of color can destroy the entire picture, and it is very troublesome to modify.

It took Yu Juexiu two days in the system to paint a mural of Lord Buddha.

Wu Daozi has always been strict with Yu Juexiu's guidance, this time his painting did not make Wu Daozi pick out a single problem.

"Xiaoyu, I heard that many murals of Buddha statues in the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes have problems. If you have a chance, go to Mogao Grottoes to restore those faded murals of Buddha statues."

Yu Juexiu was startled by his master and choked his saliva into his throat. He coughed for a long time before he calmed down: "Sir, you asked me to restore the murals of Buddha statues in Mogao Grottoes. Do you think I have that ability?"

Wu Daozi stroked his beard and nodded: "You are my personal disciple, so you naturally have this ability."

Yu Juexiu thought to himself: Sir, you really think highly of me.

Wu Daozi said with a smile: "Now that you have [-]% of my skills, it is not difficult for you to restore the peeling and faded Buddha murals."

"Master, even if I have the ability to repair it, people will not ask me to repair it. After all, I have no name and name in reality."

Wu Daozi said: "If you participate in any mural competition, you will be famous if you win an award."

Hearing this, Yu Juexiu said in his heart, Master, you old man is really simple and rude.

"If there is a mural painting competition, then I will definitely sign up. However, I'd better copy all the murals of Buddha statues in the Mogao Grottoes now."

Wu Daozi was very pleased to see Yu Juexiu working so hard.His little apprentice not only has a high talent for painting, but also works very hard.

"Little fish, it's time for you to learn wood carving."

"Master, do you know how to carve wood?"

Wu Daozi glanced at Yu Juexiu, and said angrily, "I'm not good at woodcarving, and someone else taught you woodcarving."

Yu Juexiu asked curiously, "Who is it?"

"You will know when the time comes." Wu Daozi looked at Yu Juexiu and warned, "When the time comes to learn woodcarving from him, learn it well. It is best to learn woodcarving Buddha statues well."

"Wood carving?" Yu Juexiu suddenly thought of someone, "Sir, you don't know Mr. Lu, right?" It seems that Lu Ban can carve wood.

Wu Daozi didn't answer, but silence was tantamount to acquiescing.

"In short, you should learn woodcarving from him well."

Yu Juexiu nodded obediently: "Sir, don't worry, I will study hard." However, he has been studying painting for a long time, and it is time to learn wood carving.After learning wood carving for a while, he probably will learn jade carving later. In short, he has a lot to learn.

Wu Daozi waved his hand to make Yu Juexiu retreat.

After Yu Juexiu came out from Wu Daozi's place, he went directly to Lu Ban.

He has been studying with Lu Ban for a while, but what he learns is all about making furniture.It's not that he's bragging, the furniture he made is pretty good, and if it's sold for money, it should be able to sell for a lot of money.

"Sir." Yu Juexiu greeted Lu Ban when he saw him.

During this period of time, he followed Lu Ban to learn how to make furniture of various dynasties.The style of furniture in each dynasty is different. For example, the furniture in the Ming dynasty has fine workmanship and precise mortise and tenon structure.When it comes to mortise and tenon structures, we have to mention the Forbidden City. Almost all palaces in the Forbidden City are mortise and tenon structures.

Lu Ban nodded slightly towards Yu Juexiu, and said gently, "From today onwards, I will teach you woodcarving."

When Yu Juexiu heard this, he said in his heart that indeed it was Mr. Lu who taught him woodcarving.

"Yes, sir."

"Teach you furniture wood carving first, and then teach you other wood carvings later."

"Yes." Yu Juexiu followed Lu Ban to build furniture and learned to make basic models, without carving on the furniture.

"let's start."

Yu Juexiu has a solid foundation in painting, so learning woodcarving is not difficult.In addition, he is ingenious and easy to learn.

When he learned woodcarving, he learned simple things first, such as woodcarving some flowers and plants or small animals.When he carves these simple things into three points, he will be able to learn further.

When Fu Jueheng came back, he saw Yu Juexiu was carving something with a carving knife in one hand and a piece of wood in the other.
