question of heaven
Chapter 6 Cangshan Summit
At noon on August 8th, Wu Xiufeng received a phone call from his elder brother Chu Xiuxiu: "Xiao Yang, the teacher asked me to tell you that now you can publish that review article online and sign your name. Every network Send out everything that can be posted on the Internet, and tell Pu Yan to repost it, and I will tell her about your second senior sister Cheng Huang." Putting down the phone, Wu Xiufeng quickly turned on the computer, and wrote the commentary article "Please On Your Places" was called up and published on the Internet; then I turned off the computer and left home.
A few hundred meters away from Cheng Huang's company, he heard the noise of people's voices.He didn't pay much attention and walked straight forward.When I got to the door, I saw a lot of people talking around, some with very loud voices, including reporters, and some very standard-looking unit staff.
Wu Xiufeng stood in the crowd and listened for a while before he understood what was going on.It turned out that a few days ago, the second senior sister Cheng Huang helped an old man and his grandson and brought them back home safely. The family members came to express their gratitude after being moved.The TV station and some online media companies knew about this matter, so they came here to report on it.
After everyone left, Wu Xiufeng came to the second floor: "Sister Cheng, congratulations, good people have a safe life."
Cheng Huang said: "To be honest, they came to thank me today. On the one hand, I am happy; on the other hand, I feel very sad."
Wu Xiufeng looked at her in surprise.Cheng Huang continued: "You said that you saw an old man and a child whose money was stolen. They were very tired on the side of the road and couldn't go home. As a normal person encountering such a situation, anyone would lend a helping hand. Hands, because it is a very normal thing to do with a little effort; however, it has become a rare thing now. So, I think the current social atmosphere is very frustrating. This is what our teachers have always criticized. It is the evil result brought about by the so-called utilitarian thinking of "don't ask about the process, only look at the result". Therefore, when he sees unhealthy phenomena, he always criticizes this and blames that. In this way, he appears to be out of tune with other people. In the cultural circle, many people are angry and helpless towards him, because no one can Deny it, his academic attainment is indeed very high."
Wu Xiufeng said: "This is what I admire about him."
Cheng Huang said: "No matter what kind of pressure we encounter, we always firmly believe that the teacher is right; therefore, we respect and admire him from the bottom of our hearts, and we are willing to go on with him in the same boat. Now you join in and become a teacher. After meeting our hopes, it will be up to you in the future.”
Wu Xiufeng said modestly: "Sister Cheng, don't say that, you will always be people I respect, and I will do my best."
Cheng Huang said: "Besides, Brother Chu has already told me to reprint the article you wrote. Let's see the effect now."
Wu Xiufeng took out his mobile phone and was surprised to see that in just over an hour, the number of readings and reprints was close to 1.This is not too much, but it is still a gratifying result.
"It's still early, let's see tomorrow." When Cheng Huang said this, he seemed to think of something: "Xiao Yang, Xue Rong from our company seems to like you very much, what do you think?"
"Sister Cheng, this is just a joke." Wu Xiufeng said indifferently: "I don't have the heart to think about these things now; besides, she is not my type, everyone is just trying to have fun, joking around, let's not talk about this something happened."
Cheng Huang changed his tone: "Teacher has taught you a lot about culture in the past few days, right?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "Yes, it's still very profound."
Cheng Huang said, "Can you understand?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "Basically yes, if you don't understand something, ask the teacher and you will understand."
"That's really good." Cheng Huang said: "To be honest, your senior brother and I often can't understand what the teacher said. The teacher said that this is determined by personal understanding and cannot be forced. Because knowing, understanding and Comprehension is three completely different levels. Only when comprehension is achieved, can we integrate, draw inferences from one instance, and finally use it for me. We have never done this. Nevertheless, following the teacher for so many years, we have grown from an ordinary person , has become an outstanding person in the eyes of others, this is the greatness of the teacher. I can briefly summarize the teacher's knowledge: "Make ordinary people become excellent; people with natural understanding become outstanding."
Wu Xiufeng nodded frequently.Cheng Huang continued: "We have talked about you in private, and everyone agrees that you are the person the teacher has been looking for for many years. Within ten years, you will be able to fulfill the teacher's wish and become a master. What is needed now is Time, and your personal efforts."
Wu Xiufeng listened to Cheng Huang's words, and he could deeply feel the true feelings and righteousness in these words. After being moved, he said: "Sister Cheng, in the face of your friendship, I dare not belittle myself. I'm glad I got to know you guys who are so emotional." He remembered Chu Xiuxiu's words and said, "Sister Cheng, if you need me to do something difficult for you, just say it."
Cheng Huang smiled and said: "I know, maybe I will really need your help in the future, but I don't have it now."
When Wu Xiufeng returned home, he checked the readings and comments of "Please Take Your Places", and found that the number had reached more than 17. A sense of pride and accomplishment filled his heart.He took out his phone, only to realize that Pu Yan had sent a WeChat message more than an hour ago.He replied: "I went to look for the second senior sister today, and I just saw WeChat now, what are you doing?"
Pu Yan said: "I'm at home and I'm browsing your review articles. I'm really happy for you. This is a good amount of reading. If I guess right, there will be an explosive growth tomorrow."
Wu Xiufeng said, "The source of all this is because of you. Without you, I would not have such a small achievement."
"Do you really remember?" Pu Yan said, "Well, if you don't pay it back in this life, you can pay it back in your next life. I won't be polite."
At almost three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Chu Xiuxiu called and said, "Xiao Yang, hurry up to the teacher's house. A person from Beijing just contacted me to visit the teacher. He is a student of Cao Lizhi, and his name is Ma Jing. Go over and be a companion for the teacher, we will come after work."
Wu Xiufeng went out quickly, took a taxi to Teacher Chu's house, and saw the teacher drinking tea with a person slightly older than himself.The first intuitive impression is that it looks like a clear and capable social elite.Wu Xiufeng walked up to Teacher Chu, called Teacher respectfully, and sat down.
"This is my student Wu Xiufeng," Teacher Chu then turned his hand to the young man: "This is Teacher Cao's student named Ma Jing, who lives in Beijing for a long time. He just arrived in Kunming today, and arrived one minute before you." They looked at each other and nodded without speaking.Suddenly, an invisible contest quietly formed between the two, which was transmitted to each other through the space.
Ma Jing smiled confidently: "The Cangshan Summit will be held in two days. Teacher Cao asked me to come and see Teacher Chu and say hello to you on his behalf."
Teacher Chu said: "That's good, I thought I was here to mess things up again." He laughed haha while talking.
Ma Jing didn't mind either: "Teacher Chu really knows how to joke."
Teacher Chu said: "Mr. Cao, have they arrived in Dali?"
"Not yet." Ma Jing said: "Teacher Cao is very busy, and there is an endless stream of people who come to visit him every day; there are thousands of students alone, and he will definitely not arrive until the 12th."
Wu Xiufeng noticed that when this Ma Jing said that he was very busy because of the large number of students, there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
Sure enough, Ma Jing immediately said: "Mr. Chu, how many students are there now?"
When Wu Xiufeng heard this, he wanted to fight back immediately, but he didn't know what the teacher meant, so he looked at the teacher.
Teacher Chu didn't take it seriously, he felt that he was used to it, and he seemed to be self-respecting, and said: "I don't have any students, just two or three, they are all useless, unlike you, you have a large number of people, and you will have endless troubles if you play tricks. "Wu Xiufeng couldn't help laughing when he heard the teacher's words were meaningful and humorous.
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Ma Jing's face, and he said, "Then, are you still going to the summit?"
Hearing such mocking words, Teacher Chu was furious: "Of course I'm going, even if I'm walking. What's the matter, do I need your approval?"
Ma Jing still smiled and said, "What did Teacher Chu say? I just asked kindly. In fact, you don't have to be there in person. Watching TV at home is the same."
Wu Xiufeng couldn't bear it any longer. He took a look at Teacher Chu and said, "My teacher has already made it very clear. Even if we are walking, we still have to go."
Only then did Ma Jing turn his head to Wu Xiufeng, feeling as if he had just discovered his existence, and said with a smile: "Looking at your impulsive appearance, I think of myself many years ago."
Wu Xiufeng replied unceremoniously: "What a joke, the two of us have nothing in common."
Ma Jing said, "You have the same personality as Mr. Chu."
Wu Xiufeng said: "Congratulations, you are right." Wu Xiufeng looked at the teacher, and what he received was Teacher Chu's encouraging and approving eyes.
Ma Jing said: "The current society needs systems and rules, not other illusory things. China must adhere to the rule of law and act in accordance with the rules in order to be truly prosperous and strong. Have you read the reports? The abuse of workers, passenger stations, and railway stations are full of unpredictable scams. If we want to manage all of these, we must rely on the rule of law and rules. Let the ideology of the rule of law and rules take root in people's hearts is our cultural work. Those things that people should do; and those things that are not practical, should not disturb society."
Teacher Chu didn't speak, Wu Xiufeng understood what the teacher meant, and said with a smile: "You are a typical example of 'any disagreement must be rejected'. When it comes to the importance of the rule of law and rules, no one would deny it, but the problem is that things Where is the source of it? The emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty enforced strict laws against corrupt officials and bad behavior, but why didn’t he kill the unhealthy tendencies?”
Ma Jing said: "That's because Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts and methods on the rule of law are incorrect. It doesn't mean that the rules of the rule of law we are advocating now are also unworkable."
Wu Xiufeng said: "What you said is also reasonable, but how do you prove that the rules and legal system you said are correct? People are willing to accept them?"
Ma Jing said proudly: "We have already answered with the facts, not far. In the past two years, with Beijing as the center, we have done a lot of things that are beneficial to the people across the country and helped many people. Vulnerable groups. More importantly, we spare no effort to promote the rule of law and rules, doesn’t that explain the problem?”
Teacher Chu knew that Wu Xiufeng was too young and had only been in contact with culture for a short time, so he didn't have enough understanding of such a super realistic event.He took the topic and said: "I admire your actions, please accept our respect. I just want to ask, when you are doing these good deeds, have you calculated how many resources are used? Are your methods the best? Choose. Because the method is correct, the same resources can make greater contributions to society. The proportion of people engaged in cultural work is very small in the total population of the country, and more are ordinary people who are busy with life all day long. If there is no set If a perfect ideological system is used as the code of conduct for people, it will be difficult to achieve the prosperous, prosperous, civilized and harmonious social state that we all expect.”
"Forgive me." Ma Jing said: "We have more and more students, but Mr. Chu, you still have very few students. Isn't this a good proof? In the cultural circles, there is almost one-sided opposition to you. Can’t you say that these people are all wrong?”
Wu Xiufeng said: "On a mountain, there are two springs. One is very sweet, but the other is bitter and tasteless; therefore, everyone ran to drink the sweet spring water. One of them found that anyone who drank the sweet spring water Everyone will be crazy and insane, and the dry and tasteless water is the water that really quenches their thirst. When all the people drink the sweet water and become crazy, they all accuse the person who is still awake to be abnormal and crazy.”
Ma Jing said: "There is no need to tell a story now, just tell it directly."
Wu Xiufeng said sharply: "To borrow a sentence from you, I also have good intentions. I am worried that you will not understand. It will be better to use a story."
Ma Jing said: "What's the point of speaking quickly?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "Brother Ma also knows that words can hurt people. That's great. Then we can talk about the topic. The teacher told us that rules are always against human nature, but they can make people live better." Better. Therefore, when formulating rules, we should not only conform to people's thinking, consider human characteristics, and meet the needs of the development of the times, but also strive to be as simple and concise as possible; Surrounding people, where is the sense of happiness in life? Where is the meaning of life? When this kind of thinking is suppressed for too long, people will explode and resist, which will eventually lead to confusion and chaos in the cultural world."
Ma Jing said: "Your statement seems very reasonable, but how can you prove its correctness?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "My teacher has already said that it is very simple to prove it. After the Shang Yang Reform of the Great Qin Empire, various legal provisions and institutional rules covered all aspects of people's lives. Although it has brought people real It is good, but because it is too strict and too detailed, people are bound up like zongzi, and they are often in a state of high tension. Therefore, when Shang Yang was punished, people seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and relax a lot. Why did the Great Qin Empire It disappeared in just over ten years? Doesn’t this explain the problem?”
Ma Jing was deep in thought, but did not speak.Wu Xiufeng continued: "In this world, there is nothing more noble than human beings. If we ignore the characteristics of human beings, then what is the point of all the rules of law and cultural knowledge? Simply put, all of these are serving human beings. If you can’t do it, you will be abandoned by time and people.”
Ma Jing said, "Where did you learn this?"
Wu Xiufeng replied happily: "Teacher Chu taught me, and I think it is absolutely correct, because this point of view just confirms the thought of the former teacher Confucius that 'shame and integrity'."
Ma Jing thought for a while and said: "There is no absolute thing in the world, don't be so sure."
Wu Xiufeng laughed and said: "Since there is no absolute thing, why does Brother Ma deny my statement so absolutely?"
Ma Jin was speechless, and after a while he said: "I won't be able to refute your point of view for a while, but I still firmly believe that our point of view is correct."
Teacher Chu said: "It doesn't matter, the future will be long, and time will prove everything."
The three of them were chatting vigorously, when Chu Xiuxiu and Cheng Huang came together, everyone got up and went outside for dinner.During the meal, Wu Xiufeng said teasingly: "Brother Ma, I'm curious. We talked for so long today. Except for the first time you said that Teacher Cao asked you to say hello to our teacher on his behalf, you didn't say anything else. I mentioned Teacher Cao once."
Ma Jing's face turned red slightly, and he said with embarrassment: "Teacher Cao told us not to speak and do things outside in his name, so we got used to it."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone laughed meaningfully.
After dinner, Teacher Chu asked Chu Xiuxiu to accompany Ma Jing to the hotel to open a room, saying that it was the best of the landlord.Ma Jing was also polite, said goodbye to everyone and left.
Cheng Huang and Wu Xiufeng walked with the teacher.Teacher Chu said: "Xiao Yang, you have given the teacher a face today. This feeling of elation has been held back for too long."
Wu Xiufeng said: "It can be seen that this Ma Jing is very intelligent and indeed outstanding."
Teacher Chu smiled disapprovingly and said: "Excellence is for sure, but wisdom is not. He pursues skills too much, but he doesn't know that ordinary people are obsessed with examples, and people with moderate wisdom pursue methods, while real wise men never Focusing only on ideas, without the guidance of ideas, there can be no continuity and persistence, this is the great wisdom, and it is also the difference between them and us."
When we arrived at the cultural center, Mr. Chu said, "Everyone, prepare yourself. Tomorrow afternoon we will go to Cangshan Mountain in Dali to attend the summit. Xiao Yang, can you ask girl Yan if you want to go?"
Saying goodbye to the teacher, Wu Xiufeng sent Pu Yan a WeChat message: "The teacher asked me to ask you to go to Cangshan Mountain in Dali tomorrow afternoon, will you go?"
Pu Yan replied mischievously, "I'll go if you invite me."
Wu Xiufeng said: "Of course, we will leave tomorrow afternoon."
Pu Yan said: "Have you read the article you wrote, and do you know how much it has been read?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "I have been with the teacher today, and I don't have time to watch it."
Pu Yan said: "It has reached more than 70, and it will definitely exceed 100 million tomorrow. This is a very gratifying number. I believe that you will become a focal point at the summit these days."
At two o'clock in the afternoon on August 8, Teacher Chu, Chu Xiuxiu, Cheng Huang, Pu Yan, and Wu Xiufeng set off for Cangshan Mountain in Dali.
Cheng Huang said: "I have an idea. Now we should use the momentum of the review article "Please Take Your Places" to let Xiao Yang clarify our views, which can be regarded as showing Xiao Yang in front of everyone. We must have our own voice, otherwise, they will be more arrogant and domineering."
Teacher Chu turned her head to look, Pu Yan shook her head and made several gestures.Wu Xiufeng explained: "Pu Yan means to make as few enemies as possible, even if you are not friends, don't become enemies."
Teacher Chu said: "We really don't need to compete with anyone and win or lose. Now we are in a weak position. Therefore, we must show weakness in general and make breakthroughs in parts. That is to say, we need to use a special way to highlight Xiao Yang, so that The commentary he published became a highlight of the summit."
Chu Xiuxiu said: "This matter is easy to handle. Dali's cultural system, Internet media companies, and TV stations are in need of news topics. I will contact them later."
Teacher Chu finally said: "We have two purposes for participating in this summit: first, our appearance represents that we still exist and our voice is still there. Second, to rectify Xiao Yang's name, it can be regarded as his official appearance; other aspects don't matter , the future will be long, there is no need to fight for the length of time."
Wu Xiufeng said: "Teacher, let me ask you a question. Is it good or bad?" This question immediately aroused everyone's interest, because it is closely related to real life.
Teacher Chu said: "On the whole, people with good temperament should be praised, because such people act straightforwardly and aboveboard; but in the workplace, such people are not suitable for business or politics. Even if they do it reluctantly, they will not How many achievements, and I am still very wronged. But if you are engaged in academic research, invention and creation, it has become a major advantage. It can be said that if you want to make achievements in learning and art, you must be a man of temperament .”
Wu Xiufeng said with a smile: "Teacher, do you think I am a man of temperament?"
Before Teacher Chu answered, Cheng Huang said first: "You are the most typical temperamental person." Teacher Chu said: "Your sister Cheng is right, and this is one of the reasons why I like you."
Wu Xiufeng said: "I read in the book that people with temperament always give people a very weird look."
Teacher Chu said: "Can a person who is not weird do a good job in academic research? Can he create great works?" Everyone laughed.
Wu Xiufeng asked again: "Teacher, why do I sometimes feel full of pride and sometimes feel weak and incompetent, and the transition time is very short, one minute in the first minute, and another minute in the next minute?"
Teacher Chu said: "Every person with ideals will have such psychological changes during the growth process. With the growth of age and the understanding of society, this psychological change will gradually decrease. Only those with knowledge and artistic talent People will be accompanied by this kind of psychology all their lives. Goethe is a great thinker. Sometimes he feels that he is a giant who can change the world, and sometimes he feels that he is so weak that even a small stone in front of him is powerless. From this perspective , It also just explains why great works are born in pain. Beethoven's "Symphony of Destiny"; Shakespeare's "Four Tragedies"; Rousseau's "Emile"; Luo Guanzhong's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"; Sima Qian The "Historical Records" and so on, are all like this." Teacher Chu looked at him and said with a smile: "Since you are determined to be a scholar, you should be lucky to have such a psychological phenomenon."
He continued: "Why should I ask you to study hard for two or three years, and then win the next summit in one fell swoop. There is a proven theory called the "1-hour rule", which means that a person must Concentrate and endure loneliness. If you accumulate 1 hours in the day and month, you will experience a sudden change and get a turn for the better. It’s like a wooden bucket that is receiving water. It will naturally fill up after a certain period of time.”
Teacher Chu's words penetrated deeply into Wu Xiufeng's heart, and it felt like he had read countless classics very quickly, beating him.In just a few months, the teacher's professors opened a door for him, and he successfully transformed like a phoenix from nirvana.His mood became inexplicably excited, he felt that the road ahead was bright and bright, and the voice that always existed in his heart urged him to move forward bravely.
Chu Xiuxiu suddenly said: "Xiao Yang, I have a question to remind you. The teacher has always warned us that people who are scholars should not get involved in politics, and just focus on learning. Because you are square and sharp, when you talk and communicate with others Pay more attention and don't talk about politics. Even if the other party wants to talk about it, don't follow suit. What he says is his business, we just take care of ourselves."
Wu Xiufeng said: "Okay, I will remember."
While talking, they passed through Anning and Chuxiong, Xiaguan City was already in sight, the Erhai Lake was peaceful, and the clear water of the lake made the city extraordinarily radiant.
Park the car, then go shopping on foot, walk through the streets with the atmosphere of the ancient city, and wander around slowly, naturally there is another kind of different scenery.They came to the pedestrian street and saw a very elegant casual restaurant in front of them.Chu Xiuxiu proposed to take a rest inside and have a meal by the way. Teacher Chu had already walked in first.
Pu Yan said in sign language: "Let's go shopping and be back in a while." Her eyes were full of expectation.
After Wu Xiufeng explained, Cheng Huang said, "I'll go too." He took Pu Yan's hand and walked forward, Wu Xiufeng quickly followed them.When I came to the central tower, I saw crowds of people moving up and down, which was a good scene for playing.Wu Xiufeng really wanted to stand on the top floor and have a look at the whole city. Thinking that the teacher and the others were still waiting for dinner, he had no choice but to give up the idea.
Pu Yan pulled Cheng Huang and walked quickly to the crowded place, Wu Xiufeng followed and saw that it was a shop that bought all kinds of candied fruit.He has never seen such a wide variety of candied fruit, pineapple, apple, banana, Sydney, all kinds of candied fruit.He was not interested in these things, but he still found it very interesting to see them both watching and tasting with great interest.
They chose five or six kinds, Wu Xiufeng walked over quickly to ask for payment, Cheng Huang said: "Xiao Yang, why do you want to pay?"
Wu Xiufeng said, "It's okay, Sister Cheng, I can do it."
Cheng Huang joked: "Put it away, I'm richer than you."
Wu Xiufeng didn't insist anymore, Pu Yan picked up the bag and handed it to him, and then took some out for Cheng Huang, the two ate and walked, talking and laughing back to the restaurant they had just agreed on, and placed the candied fruit on the table superior.
Chu Xiuxiu said: "I have already contacted the relevant news organizations in Dali, and they are also very happy. Knowing that we wrote the commentary article "Please Take Your Places", I can't wait to see you. According to the time calculation, it should be at noon tomorrow I will interview you at the Cangshan Hotel."
Wu Xiufeng said, "What should I do? What should I say?"
Chu Xiuxiu said: "You can say whatever you want, as long as it doesn't involve politics. We are doing learning, so there is no need to please people everywhere."
Wu Xiufeng said: "When are we going to Cangshan, tonight? Or tomorrow?"
"It must be tonight." Chu Xiuxiu said, "The organizing committee has already arranged the hotel, so we will stay at the Cangshan Hotel tonight."
After eating, they headed towards Cangshan Mountain, and arrived at the Cangshan Hotel before dark.A few well-dressed people stood at the door, looking very dignified.
They were obviously very perfunctory to Teacher Chu, but they were very enthusiastic about Chu Xiuxiu: "Mr. Chu, you are here; Hello Director Chu, I haven't seen you for a few years, so don't bother me for a while, let me do my best as a landlord-" ------."
Teacher Chu and Chu Xiuxiu exchanged pleasantries with them, got their room cards at the sign-in office, and went to the fifth floor together.Teacher Chu, Cheng Huang and Pu Yan, Chu Xiuxiu and Wu Xiufeng.
At around nine o'clock, they came to the lounge.There are good tea, coffee, and simple snacks here, and they chat freely when they want a pot of tea.During this period, people came to greet them one after another.
Wu Xiufeng discovered that the people who came to talk to them were basically people from the cultural systems of various prefectures and cities in Yunnan Province, and they mainly came for Chu Xiu.Teacher Chu also knew each other, but there was obviously a estrangement, and he just said hello politely; but the legendary "Southern Su and Northern Cao" did not appear for a long time, and even Ma Jing, whom he met in Kunming two days ago, disappeared.When it was almost eleven o'clock, Teacher Chu said: "Go to sleep, we will talk about it tomorrow."
Early the next morning, someone appeared from nowhere, and the whole hotel suddenly became lively.On time at nine o'clock, the summit opened. The hosts were a man and a woman in their 30s.Right above the rostrum, hung a long red banner with ten huge white characters on it: The Sixth Cangshan Culture Symposium.
Through the host's introduction, Wu Xiufeng understood the rules of the summit.In the first two days, people who independently applied and were approved by the organizing committee came to the stage to deliver special speeches.On the third and fourth days, it will be divided into several venues, and the views will be continued in the form of free debate; in addition, small exchange meetings can also be applied for.The first two methods are recorded by stenographers on the spot, and will be sent to influential participants after being finalized.Whether the last method needs a stenographer is free to choose.
Wu Xiufeng said, "Who are we going to speak up?"
Chu Xiuxiu said: "In previous years, it was the teacher or me. This year we gave up and did not participate in such speeches, but we can participate in free debates."
At this time, a familiar figure stepped onto the podium.Wu Xiufeng took a closer look and found that it was Ma Jing whom he met in Kunming two days ago.On behalf of his teacher Cao Lizhi, he made an expounding on the topic of "Culture and Rules".
Wu Xiufeng listened carefully, and after a while, he realized that the views he expounded were very similar to his own debate two days ago, and there was nothing new, so he let his thoughts go and observed the entire venue.
This is a small venue. There are about 200 people attending the summit, and the rest are staff members, as well as journalists carrying equipment on their shoulders.Some people looked at the rostrum seriously; some were whispering; some were simply playing with their mobile phones.
This article is a bit long, and it took almost two hours to finish.Wu Xiufeng asked Chu Xiuxiu curiously: "The special lecture is only for today and tomorrow, and he spent such a long time by himself, what about the others?" Before Chu Xiuxiu could answer, Teacher Chu interjected, "This is called being rich and powerful. "Chu Xiuxiu, Wu Xiufeng and others laughed.
The following speeches were made by some cultural celebrities from all over the country, and they were basically the same expositions: the profoundness of Chinese culture, the advantages of Chinese culture, etc.
Wu Xiufeng is very surprised why no one has proposed: how to apply excellent culture to guide and serve real life, and its practical effect on ordinary people.He told the teacher this question.
Teacher Chu looked at him with some surprise: "That's right, for so many years, no one has really talked about this issue; maybe some people have thought about it but didn't say it. I guess, they may be worried that after they say it, they will be laughed at by others. Why do you ask such a question?" Superficial question; but in my opinion, this is precisely the most important question, a culture that does not serve the real world is simply meaningless. It is very good that you can see this for the first time at the summit today.”
Wu Xiufeng said: "Is there anyone in the Chinese cultural circle today who can answer this question?"
"Who else can I do?" Teacher Chu said proudly: "To answer this question, no one can do better than us."
When the session ended at noon, Wu Xiaoyang walked out of the venue with the teacher.I just came to the first floor and was about to enter the restaurant for dinner. I saw seven or eight people with microphones and cameras looking around.Seeing them coming down, they immediately gathered around and said, "Excuse me, who is Wu Xiufeng?"
Teacher Chu smiled, pointed and said, "He is."
Another young girl with a microphone in her hand said first: "Did you write a commentary article "Please Take Your Places" that appeared on the Internet in the past two days?"
Chu Xiuxiu said, "That's right, he wrote it."
The rest of the people put the microphone forward: "We want to interview you, please answer a few questions?"
More and more people came to eat, Wu Xiufeng said: "It's no problem, let's go to the side and chat casually."
A man was the first to say, "Who are you talking about in the article?"
Wu Xiufeng thought for a while and said, "You are engaged in news reports, and you are much more informed than us. You know the answer better than I do, so you can definitely take your seat."
A person from an online media asked: "In your article, you said 'a wolf raised by mountain people and then eats them' refers to a person? Who is it?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "Anyone who enjoys preferential treatment from the public but does not do business is this kind of wolf. They are perfunctory in their work and full of self-interest."
Someone asked: "You said 'culture is the support point of all industries', could you please be more specific?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "All the industries in the world are created by us humans; culture is the hub and the center, and what kind of culture there will be what kind of people, so it has naturally become a part of the industry. The most fundamental, fundamental and important fulcrum.”
Another person asked: "Rules have always been against human nature. According to your statement, shouldn't society need rules?"
Wu Xiufeng said with a smile: "You drive to the intersection, there are no vehicles or pedestrians around, but when the red light turns on, how do you feel? Do you wish so much that there would be no red lights?" The people around laughed.He continued: "But if there are no traffic lights, the traffic will be chaotic; therefore, the rules have always been against human nature, but they can make our lives better."
Then the person asked: "So, what's the point of this sentence?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "The meaning of this sentence is to remind people to consider human nature and human heart when formulating 'rules'. Because only rules that accommodate and absorb the characteristics of human nature and human heart can be operable and effectively realize the goal of formulating rules. Original intention."
A male reporter asked: "What if someone really proposed to abolish the myths and legends of 'Heavenly Match, Cowherd and Weaver Girl'?"
Wu Xiufeng resolutely said: "There is no need to ask, this person must be crazy, and he should be sent to a mental hospital immediately."
The reporter hurriedly said, "There is one more question. Who is the professor surnamed Wang you mentioned? Can you just say his name?"
Wu Xiufeng said with a smile: "You can know who it is by browsing through his explanation of the 'History of the Han Dynasty'. By the way, you can also listen to his other 'high opinions'."
Someone asked:
A few hundred meters away from Cheng Huang's company, he heard the noise of people's voices.He didn't pay much attention and walked straight forward.When I got to the door, I saw a lot of people talking around, some with very loud voices, including reporters, and some very standard-looking unit staff.
Wu Xiufeng stood in the crowd and listened for a while before he understood what was going on.It turned out that a few days ago, the second senior sister Cheng Huang helped an old man and his grandson and brought them back home safely. The family members came to express their gratitude after being moved.The TV station and some online media companies knew about this matter, so they came here to report on it.
After everyone left, Wu Xiufeng came to the second floor: "Sister Cheng, congratulations, good people have a safe life."
Cheng Huang said: "To be honest, they came to thank me today. On the one hand, I am happy; on the other hand, I feel very sad."
Wu Xiufeng looked at her in surprise.Cheng Huang continued: "You said that you saw an old man and a child whose money was stolen. They were very tired on the side of the road and couldn't go home. As a normal person encountering such a situation, anyone would lend a helping hand. Hands, because it is a very normal thing to do with a little effort; however, it has become a rare thing now. So, I think the current social atmosphere is very frustrating. This is what our teachers have always criticized. It is the evil result brought about by the so-called utilitarian thinking of "don't ask about the process, only look at the result". Therefore, when he sees unhealthy phenomena, he always criticizes this and blames that. In this way, he appears to be out of tune with other people. In the cultural circle, many people are angry and helpless towards him, because no one can Deny it, his academic attainment is indeed very high."
Wu Xiufeng said: "This is what I admire about him."
Cheng Huang said: "No matter what kind of pressure we encounter, we always firmly believe that the teacher is right; therefore, we respect and admire him from the bottom of our hearts, and we are willing to go on with him in the same boat. Now you join in and become a teacher. After meeting our hopes, it will be up to you in the future.”
Wu Xiufeng said modestly: "Sister Cheng, don't say that, you will always be people I respect, and I will do my best."
Cheng Huang said: "Besides, Brother Chu has already told me to reprint the article you wrote. Let's see the effect now."
Wu Xiufeng took out his mobile phone and was surprised to see that in just over an hour, the number of readings and reprints was close to 1.This is not too much, but it is still a gratifying result.
"It's still early, let's see tomorrow." When Cheng Huang said this, he seemed to think of something: "Xiao Yang, Xue Rong from our company seems to like you very much, what do you think?"
"Sister Cheng, this is just a joke." Wu Xiufeng said indifferently: "I don't have the heart to think about these things now; besides, she is not my type, everyone is just trying to have fun, joking around, let's not talk about this something happened."
Cheng Huang changed his tone: "Teacher has taught you a lot about culture in the past few days, right?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "Yes, it's still very profound."
Cheng Huang said, "Can you understand?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "Basically yes, if you don't understand something, ask the teacher and you will understand."
"That's really good." Cheng Huang said: "To be honest, your senior brother and I often can't understand what the teacher said. The teacher said that this is determined by personal understanding and cannot be forced. Because knowing, understanding and Comprehension is three completely different levels. Only when comprehension is achieved, can we integrate, draw inferences from one instance, and finally use it for me. We have never done this. Nevertheless, following the teacher for so many years, we have grown from an ordinary person , has become an outstanding person in the eyes of others, this is the greatness of the teacher. I can briefly summarize the teacher's knowledge: "Make ordinary people become excellent; people with natural understanding become outstanding."
Wu Xiufeng nodded frequently.Cheng Huang continued: "We have talked about you in private, and everyone agrees that you are the person the teacher has been looking for for many years. Within ten years, you will be able to fulfill the teacher's wish and become a master. What is needed now is Time, and your personal efforts."
Wu Xiufeng listened to Cheng Huang's words, and he could deeply feel the true feelings and righteousness in these words. After being moved, he said: "Sister Cheng, in the face of your friendship, I dare not belittle myself. I'm glad I got to know you guys who are so emotional." He remembered Chu Xiuxiu's words and said, "Sister Cheng, if you need me to do something difficult for you, just say it."
Cheng Huang smiled and said: "I know, maybe I will really need your help in the future, but I don't have it now."
When Wu Xiufeng returned home, he checked the readings and comments of "Please Take Your Places", and found that the number had reached more than 17. A sense of pride and accomplishment filled his heart.He took out his phone, only to realize that Pu Yan had sent a WeChat message more than an hour ago.He replied: "I went to look for the second senior sister today, and I just saw WeChat now, what are you doing?"
Pu Yan said: "I'm at home and I'm browsing your review articles. I'm really happy for you. This is a good amount of reading. If I guess right, there will be an explosive growth tomorrow."
Wu Xiufeng said, "The source of all this is because of you. Without you, I would not have such a small achievement."
"Do you really remember?" Pu Yan said, "Well, if you don't pay it back in this life, you can pay it back in your next life. I won't be polite."
At almost three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Chu Xiuxiu called and said, "Xiao Yang, hurry up to the teacher's house. A person from Beijing just contacted me to visit the teacher. He is a student of Cao Lizhi, and his name is Ma Jing. Go over and be a companion for the teacher, we will come after work."
Wu Xiufeng went out quickly, took a taxi to Teacher Chu's house, and saw the teacher drinking tea with a person slightly older than himself.The first intuitive impression is that it looks like a clear and capable social elite.Wu Xiufeng walked up to Teacher Chu, called Teacher respectfully, and sat down.
"This is my student Wu Xiufeng," Teacher Chu then turned his hand to the young man: "This is Teacher Cao's student named Ma Jing, who lives in Beijing for a long time. He just arrived in Kunming today, and arrived one minute before you." They looked at each other and nodded without speaking.Suddenly, an invisible contest quietly formed between the two, which was transmitted to each other through the space.
Ma Jing smiled confidently: "The Cangshan Summit will be held in two days. Teacher Cao asked me to come and see Teacher Chu and say hello to you on his behalf."
Teacher Chu said: "That's good, I thought I was here to mess things up again." He laughed haha while talking.
Ma Jing didn't mind either: "Teacher Chu really knows how to joke."
Teacher Chu said: "Mr. Cao, have they arrived in Dali?"
"Not yet." Ma Jing said: "Teacher Cao is very busy, and there is an endless stream of people who come to visit him every day; there are thousands of students alone, and he will definitely not arrive until the 12th."
Wu Xiufeng noticed that when this Ma Jing said that he was very busy because of the large number of students, there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
Sure enough, Ma Jing immediately said: "Mr. Chu, how many students are there now?"
When Wu Xiufeng heard this, he wanted to fight back immediately, but he didn't know what the teacher meant, so he looked at the teacher.
Teacher Chu didn't take it seriously, he felt that he was used to it, and he seemed to be self-respecting, and said: "I don't have any students, just two or three, they are all useless, unlike you, you have a large number of people, and you will have endless troubles if you play tricks. "Wu Xiufeng couldn't help laughing when he heard the teacher's words were meaningful and humorous.
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Ma Jing's face, and he said, "Then, are you still going to the summit?"
Hearing such mocking words, Teacher Chu was furious: "Of course I'm going, even if I'm walking. What's the matter, do I need your approval?"
Ma Jing still smiled and said, "What did Teacher Chu say? I just asked kindly. In fact, you don't have to be there in person. Watching TV at home is the same."
Wu Xiufeng couldn't bear it any longer. He took a look at Teacher Chu and said, "My teacher has already made it very clear. Even if we are walking, we still have to go."
Only then did Ma Jing turn his head to Wu Xiufeng, feeling as if he had just discovered his existence, and said with a smile: "Looking at your impulsive appearance, I think of myself many years ago."
Wu Xiufeng replied unceremoniously: "What a joke, the two of us have nothing in common."
Ma Jing said, "You have the same personality as Mr. Chu."
Wu Xiufeng said: "Congratulations, you are right." Wu Xiufeng looked at the teacher, and what he received was Teacher Chu's encouraging and approving eyes.
Ma Jing said: "The current society needs systems and rules, not other illusory things. China must adhere to the rule of law and act in accordance with the rules in order to be truly prosperous and strong. Have you read the reports? The abuse of workers, passenger stations, and railway stations are full of unpredictable scams. If we want to manage all of these, we must rely on the rule of law and rules. Let the ideology of the rule of law and rules take root in people's hearts is our cultural work. Those things that people should do; and those things that are not practical, should not disturb society."
Teacher Chu didn't speak, Wu Xiufeng understood what the teacher meant, and said with a smile: "You are a typical example of 'any disagreement must be rejected'. When it comes to the importance of the rule of law and rules, no one would deny it, but the problem is that things Where is the source of it? The emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty enforced strict laws against corrupt officials and bad behavior, but why didn’t he kill the unhealthy tendencies?”
Ma Jing said: "That's because Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts and methods on the rule of law are incorrect. It doesn't mean that the rules of the rule of law we are advocating now are also unworkable."
Wu Xiufeng said: "What you said is also reasonable, but how do you prove that the rules and legal system you said are correct? People are willing to accept them?"
Ma Jing said proudly: "We have already answered with the facts, not far. In the past two years, with Beijing as the center, we have done a lot of things that are beneficial to the people across the country and helped many people. Vulnerable groups. More importantly, we spare no effort to promote the rule of law and rules, doesn’t that explain the problem?”
Teacher Chu knew that Wu Xiufeng was too young and had only been in contact with culture for a short time, so he didn't have enough understanding of such a super realistic event.He took the topic and said: "I admire your actions, please accept our respect. I just want to ask, when you are doing these good deeds, have you calculated how many resources are used? Are your methods the best? Choose. Because the method is correct, the same resources can make greater contributions to society. The proportion of people engaged in cultural work is very small in the total population of the country, and more are ordinary people who are busy with life all day long. If there is no set If a perfect ideological system is used as the code of conduct for people, it will be difficult to achieve the prosperous, prosperous, civilized and harmonious social state that we all expect.”
"Forgive me." Ma Jing said: "We have more and more students, but Mr. Chu, you still have very few students. Isn't this a good proof? In the cultural circles, there is almost one-sided opposition to you. Can’t you say that these people are all wrong?”
Wu Xiufeng said: "On a mountain, there are two springs. One is very sweet, but the other is bitter and tasteless; therefore, everyone ran to drink the sweet spring water. One of them found that anyone who drank the sweet spring water Everyone will be crazy and insane, and the dry and tasteless water is the water that really quenches their thirst. When all the people drink the sweet water and become crazy, they all accuse the person who is still awake to be abnormal and crazy.”
Ma Jing said: "There is no need to tell a story now, just tell it directly."
Wu Xiufeng said sharply: "To borrow a sentence from you, I also have good intentions. I am worried that you will not understand. It will be better to use a story."
Ma Jing said: "What's the point of speaking quickly?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "Brother Ma also knows that words can hurt people. That's great. Then we can talk about the topic. The teacher told us that rules are always against human nature, but they can make people live better." Better. Therefore, when formulating rules, we should not only conform to people's thinking, consider human characteristics, and meet the needs of the development of the times, but also strive to be as simple and concise as possible; Surrounding people, where is the sense of happiness in life? Where is the meaning of life? When this kind of thinking is suppressed for too long, people will explode and resist, which will eventually lead to confusion and chaos in the cultural world."
Ma Jing said: "Your statement seems very reasonable, but how can you prove its correctness?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "My teacher has already said that it is very simple to prove it. After the Shang Yang Reform of the Great Qin Empire, various legal provisions and institutional rules covered all aspects of people's lives. Although it has brought people real It is good, but because it is too strict and too detailed, people are bound up like zongzi, and they are often in a state of high tension. Therefore, when Shang Yang was punished, people seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and relax a lot. Why did the Great Qin Empire It disappeared in just over ten years? Doesn’t this explain the problem?”
Ma Jing was deep in thought, but did not speak.Wu Xiufeng continued: "In this world, there is nothing more noble than human beings. If we ignore the characteristics of human beings, then what is the point of all the rules of law and cultural knowledge? Simply put, all of these are serving human beings. If you can’t do it, you will be abandoned by time and people.”
Ma Jing said, "Where did you learn this?"
Wu Xiufeng replied happily: "Teacher Chu taught me, and I think it is absolutely correct, because this point of view just confirms the thought of the former teacher Confucius that 'shame and integrity'."
Ma Jing thought for a while and said: "There is no absolute thing in the world, don't be so sure."
Wu Xiufeng laughed and said: "Since there is no absolute thing, why does Brother Ma deny my statement so absolutely?"
Ma Jin was speechless, and after a while he said: "I won't be able to refute your point of view for a while, but I still firmly believe that our point of view is correct."
Teacher Chu said: "It doesn't matter, the future will be long, and time will prove everything."
The three of them were chatting vigorously, when Chu Xiuxiu and Cheng Huang came together, everyone got up and went outside for dinner.During the meal, Wu Xiufeng said teasingly: "Brother Ma, I'm curious. We talked for so long today. Except for the first time you said that Teacher Cao asked you to say hello to our teacher on his behalf, you didn't say anything else. I mentioned Teacher Cao once."
Ma Jing's face turned red slightly, and he said with embarrassment: "Teacher Cao told us not to speak and do things outside in his name, so we got used to it."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone laughed meaningfully.
After dinner, Teacher Chu asked Chu Xiuxiu to accompany Ma Jing to the hotel to open a room, saying that it was the best of the landlord.Ma Jing was also polite, said goodbye to everyone and left.
Cheng Huang and Wu Xiufeng walked with the teacher.Teacher Chu said: "Xiao Yang, you have given the teacher a face today. This feeling of elation has been held back for too long."
Wu Xiufeng said: "It can be seen that this Ma Jing is very intelligent and indeed outstanding."
Teacher Chu smiled disapprovingly and said: "Excellence is for sure, but wisdom is not. He pursues skills too much, but he doesn't know that ordinary people are obsessed with examples, and people with moderate wisdom pursue methods, while real wise men never Focusing only on ideas, without the guidance of ideas, there can be no continuity and persistence, this is the great wisdom, and it is also the difference between them and us."
When we arrived at the cultural center, Mr. Chu said, "Everyone, prepare yourself. Tomorrow afternoon we will go to Cangshan Mountain in Dali to attend the summit. Xiao Yang, can you ask girl Yan if you want to go?"
Saying goodbye to the teacher, Wu Xiufeng sent Pu Yan a WeChat message: "The teacher asked me to ask you to go to Cangshan Mountain in Dali tomorrow afternoon, will you go?"
Pu Yan replied mischievously, "I'll go if you invite me."
Wu Xiufeng said: "Of course, we will leave tomorrow afternoon."
Pu Yan said: "Have you read the article you wrote, and do you know how much it has been read?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "I have been with the teacher today, and I don't have time to watch it."
Pu Yan said: "It has reached more than 70, and it will definitely exceed 100 million tomorrow. This is a very gratifying number. I believe that you will become a focal point at the summit these days."
At two o'clock in the afternoon on August 8, Teacher Chu, Chu Xiuxiu, Cheng Huang, Pu Yan, and Wu Xiufeng set off for Cangshan Mountain in Dali.
Cheng Huang said: "I have an idea. Now we should use the momentum of the review article "Please Take Your Places" to let Xiao Yang clarify our views, which can be regarded as showing Xiao Yang in front of everyone. We must have our own voice, otherwise, they will be more arrogant and domineering."
Teacher Chu turned her head to look, Pu Yan shook her head and made several gestures.Wu Xiufeng explained: "Pu Yan means to make as few enemies as possible, even if you are not friends, don't become enemies."
Teacher Chu said: "We really don't need to compete with anyone and win or lose. Now we are in a weak position. Therefore, we must show weakness in general and make breakthroughs in parts. That is to say, we need to use a special way to highlight Xiao Yang, so that The commentary he published became a highlight of the summit."
Chu Xiuxiu said: "This matter is easy to handle. Dali's cultural system, Internet media companies, and TV stations are in need of news topics. I will contact them later."
Teacher Chu finally said: "We have two purposes for participating in this summit: first, our appearance represents that we still exist and our voice is still there. Second, to rectify Xiao Yang's name, it can be regarded as his official appearance; other aspects don't matter , the future will be long, there is no need to fight for the length of time."
Wu Xiufeng said: "Teacher, let me ask you a question. Is it good or bad?" This question immediately aroused everyone's interest, because it is closely related to real life.
Teacher Chu said: "On the whole, people with good temperament should be praised, because such people act straightforwardly and aboveboard; but in the workplace, such people are not suitable for business or politics. Even if they do it reluctantly, they will not How many achievements, and I am still very wronged. But if you are engaged in academic research, invention and creation, it has become a major advantage. It can be said that if you want to make achievements in learning and art, you must be a man of temperament .”
Wu Xiufeng said with a smile: "Teacher, do you think I am a man of temperament?"
Before Teacher Chu answered, Cheng Huang said first: "You are the most typical temperamental person." Teacher Chu said: "Your sister Cheng is right, and this is one of the reasons why I like you."
Wu Xiufeng said: "I read in the book that people with temperament always give people a very weird look."
Teacher Chu said: "Can a person who is not weird do a good job in academic research? Can he create great works?" Everyone laughed.
Wu Xiufeng asked again: "Teacher, why do I sometimes feel full of pride and sometimes feel weak and incompetent, and the transition time is very short, one minute in the first minute, and another minute in the next minute?"
Teacher Chu said: "Every person with ideals will have such psychological changes during the growth process. With the growth of age and the understanding of society, this psychological change will gradually decrease. Only those with knowledge and artistic talent People will be accompanied by this kind of psychology all their lives. Goethe is a great thinker. Sometimes he feels that he is a giant who can change the world, and sometimes he feels that he is so weak that even a small stone in front of him is powerless. From this perspective , It also just explains why great works are born in pain. Beethoven's "Symphony of Destiny"; Shakespeare's "Four Tragedies"; Rousseau's "Emile"; Luo Guanzhong's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"; Sima Qian The "Historical Records" and so on, are all like this." Teacher Chu looked at him and said with a smile: "Since you are determined to be a scholar, you should be lucky to have such a psychological phenomenon."
He continued: "Why should I ask you to study hard for two or three years, and then win the next summit in one fell swoop. There is a proven theory called the "1-hour rule", which means that a person must Concentrate and endure loneliness. If you accumulate 1 hours in the day and month, you will experience a sudden change and get a turn for the better. It’s like a wooden bucket that is receiving water. It will naturally fill up after a certain period of time.”
Teacher Chu's words penetrated deeply into Wu Xiufeng's heart, and it felt like he had read countless classics very quickly, beating him.In just a few months, the teacher's professors opened a door for him, and he successfully transformed like a phoenix from nirvana.His mood became inexplicably excited, he felt that the road ahead was bright and bright, and the voice that always existed in his heart urged him to move forward bravely.
Chu Xiuxiu suddenly said: "Xiao Yang, I have a question to remind you. The teacher has always warned us that people who are scholars should not get involved in politics, and just focus on learning. Because you are square and sharp, when you talk and communicate with others Pay more attention and don't talk about politics. Even if the other party wants to talk about it, don't follow suit. What he says is his business, we just take care of ourselves."
Wu Xiufeng said: "Okay, I will remember."
While talking, they passed through Anning and Chuxiong, Xiaguan City was already in sight, the Erhai Lake was peaceful, and the clear water of the lake made the city extraordinarily radiant.
Park the car, then go shopping on foot, walk through the streets with the atmosphere of the ancient city, and wander around slowly, naturally there is another kind of different scenery.They came to the pedestrian street and saw a very elegant casual restaurant in front of them.Chu Xiuxiu proposed to take a rest inside and have a meal by the way. Teacher Chu had already walked in first.
Pu Yan said in sign language: "Let's go shopping and be back in a while." Her eyes were full of expectation.
After Wu Xiufeng explained, Cheng Huang said, "I'll go too." He took Pu Yan's hand and walked forward, Wu Xiufeng quickly followed them.When I came to the central tower, I saw crowds of people moving up and down, which was a good scene for playing.Wu Xiufeng really wanted to stand on the top floor and have a look at the whole city. Thinking that the teacher and the others were still waiting for dinner, he had no choice but to give up the idea.
Pu Yan pulled Cheng Huang and walked quickly to the crowded place, Wu Xiufeng followed and saw that it was a shop that bought all kinds of candied fruit.He has never seen such a wide variety of candied fruit, pineapple, apple, banana, Sydney, all kinds of candied fruit.He was not interested in these things, but he still found it very interesting to see them both watching and tasting with great interest.
They chose five or six kinds, Wu Xiufeng walked over quickly to ask for payment, Cheng Huang said: "Xiao Yang, why do you want to pay?"
Wu Xiufeng said, "It's okay, Sister Cheng, I can do it."
Cheng Huang joked: "Put it away, I'm richer than you."
Wu Xiufeng didn't insist anymore, Pu Yan picked up the bag and handed it to him, and then took some out for Cheng Huang, the two ate and walked, talking and laughing back to the restaurant they had just agreed on, and placed the candied fruit on the table superior.
Chu Xiuxiu said: "I have already contacted the relevant news organizations in Dali, and they are also very happy. Knowing that we wrote the commentary article "Please Take Your Places", I can't wait to see you. According to the time calculation, it should be at noon tomorrow I will interview you at the Cangshan Hotel."
Wu Xiufeng said, "What should I do? What should I say?"
Chu Xiuxiu said: "You can say whatever you want, as long as it doesn't involve politics. We are doing learning, so there is no need to please people everywhere."
Wu Xiufeng said: "When are we going to Cangshan, tonight? Or tomorrow?"
"It must be tonight." Chu Xiuxiu said, "The organizing committee has already arranged the hotel, so we will stay at the Cangshan Hotel tonight."
After eating, they headed towards Cangshan Mountain, and arrived at the Cangshan Hotel before dark.A few well-dressed people stood at the door, looking very dignified.
They were obviously very perfunctory to Teacher Chu, but they were very enthusiastic about Chu Xiuxiu: "Mr. Chu, you are here; Hello Director Chu, I haven't seen you for a few years, so don't bother me for a while, let me do my best as a landlord-" ------."
Teacher Chu and Chu Xiuxiu exchanged pleasantries with them, got their room cards at the sign-in office, and went to the fifth floor together.Teacher Chu, Cheng Huang and Pu Yan, Chu Xiuxiu and Wu Xiufeng.
At around nine o'clock, they came to the lounge.There are good tea, coffee, and simple snacks here, and they chat freely when they want a pot of tea.During this period, people came to greet them one after another.
Wu Xiufeng discovered that the people who came to talk to them were basically people from the cultural systems of various prefectures and cities in Yunnan Province, and they mainly came for Chu Xiu.Teacher Chu also knew each other, but there was obviously a estrangement, and he just said hello politely; but the legendary "Southern Su and Northern Cao" did not appear for a long time, and even Ma Jing, whom he met in Kunming two days ago, disappeared.When it was almost eleven o'clock, Teacher Chu said: "Go to sleep, we will talk about it tomorrow."
Early the next morning, someone appeared from nowhere, and the whole hotel suddenly became lively.On time at nine o'clock, the summit opened. The hosts were a man and a woman in their 30s.Right above the rostrum, hung a long red banner with ten huge white characters on it: The Sixth Cangshan Culture Symposium.
Through the host's introduction, Wu Xiufeng understood the rules of the summit.In the first two days, people who independently applied and were approved by the organizing committee came to the stage to deliver special speeches.On the third and fourth days, it will be divided into several venues, and the views will be continued in the form of free debate; in addition, small exchange meetings can also be applied for.The first two methods are recorded by stenographers on the spot, and will be sent to influential participants after being finalized.Whether the last method needs a stenographer is free to choose.
Wu Xiufeng said, "Who are we going to speak up?"
Chu Xiuxiu said: "In previous years, it was the teacher or me. This year we gave up and did not participate in such speeches, but we can participate in free debates."
At this time, a familiar figure stepped onto the podium.Wu Xiufeng took a closer look and found that it was Ma Jing whom he met in Kunming two days ago.On behalf of his teacher Cao Lizhi, he made an expounding on the topic of "Culture and Rules".
Wu Xiufeng listened carefully, and after a while, he realized that the views he expounded were very similar to his own debate two days ago, and there was nothing new, so he let his thoughts go and observed the entire venue.
This is a small venue. There are about 200 people attending the summit, and the rest are staff members, as well as journalists carrying equipment on their shoulders.Some people looked at the rostrum seriously; some were whispering; some were simply playing with their mobile phones.
This article is a bit long, and it took almost two hours to finish.Wu Xiufeng asked Chu Xiuxiu curiously: "The special lecture is only for today and tomorrow, and he spent such a long time by himself, what about the others?" Before Chu Xiuxiu could answer, Teacher Chu interjected, "This is called being rich and powerful. "Chu Xiuxiu, Wu Xiufeng and others laughed.
The following speeches were made by some cultural celebrities from all over the country, and they were basically the same expositions: the profoundness of Chinese culture, the advantages of Chinese culture, etc.
Wu Xiufeng is very surprised why no one has proposed: how to apply excellent culture to guide and serve real life, and its practical effect on ordinary people.He told the teacher this question.
Teacher Chu looked at him with some surprise: "That's right, for so many years, no one has really talked about this issue; maybe some people have thought about it but didn't say it. I guess, they may be worried that after they say it, they will be laughed at by others. Why do you ask such a question?" Superficial question; but in my opinion, this is precisely the most important question, a culture that does not serve the real world is simply meaningless. It is very good that you can see this for the first time at the summit today.”
Wu Xiufeng said: "Is there anyone in the Chinese cultural circle today who can answer this question?"
"Who else can I do?" Teacher Chu said proudly: "To answer this question, no one can do better than us."
When the session ended at noon, Wu Xiaoyang walked out of the venue with the teacher.I just came to the first floor and was about to enter the restaurant for dinner. I saw seven or eight people with microphones and cameras looking around.Seeing them coming down, they immediately gathered around and said, "Excuse me, who is Wu Xiufeng?"
Teacher Chu smiled, pointed and said, "He is."
Another young girl with a microphone in her hand said first: "Did you write a commentary article "Please Take Your Places" that appeared on the Internet in the past two days?"
Chu Xiuxiu said, "That's right, he wrote it."
The rest of the people put the microphone forward: "We want to interview you, please answer a few questions?"
More and more people came to eat, Wu Xiufeng said: "It's no problem, let's go to the side and chat casually."
A man was the first to say, "Who are you talking about in the article?"
Wu Xiufeng thought for a while and said, "You are engaged in news reports, and you are much more informed than us. You know the answer better than I do, so you can definitely take your seat."
A person from an online media asked: "In your article, you said 'a wolf raised by mountain people and then eats them' refers to a person? Who is it?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "Anyone who enjoys preferential treatment from the public but does not do business is this kind of wolf. They are perfunctory in their work and full of self-interest."
Someone asked: "You said 'culture is the support point of all industries', could you please be more specific?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "All the industries in the world are created by us humans; culture is the hub and the center, and what kind of culture there will be what kind of people, so it has naturally become a part of the industry. The most fundamental, fundamental and important fulcrum.”
Another person asked: "Rules have always been against human nature. According to your statement, shouldn't society need rules?"
Wu Xiufeng said with a smile: "You drive to the intersection, there are no vehicles or pedestrians around, but when the red light turns on, how do you feel? Do you wish so much that there would be no red lights?" The people around laughed.He continued: "But if there are no traffic lights, the traffic will be chaotic; therefore, the rules have always been against human nature, but they can make our lives better."
Then the person asked: "So, what's the point of this sentence?"
Wu Xiufeng said: "The meaning of this sentence is to remind people to consider human nature and human heart when formulating 'rules'. Because only rules that accommodate and absorb the characteristics of human nature and human heart can be operable and effectively realize the goal of formulating rules. Original intention."
A male reporter asked: "What if someone really proposed to abolish the myths and legends of 'Heavenly Match, Cowherd and Weaver Girl'?"
Wu Xiufeng resolutely said: "There is no need to ask, this person must be crazy, and he should be sent to a mental hospital immediately."
The reporter hurriedly said, "There is one more question. Who is the professor surnamed Wang you mentioned? Can you just say his name?"
Wu Xiufeng said with a smile: "You can know who it is by browsing through his explanation of the 'History of the Han Dynasty'. By the way, you can also listen to his other 'high opinions'."
