Chapter 84 I Have a Chinese Dream
Dialect returned home with a full load. 15 paintings by famous artists were all wrapped in cotton paper. Before putting them into the huanghuali-top box, I found a pile of newspapers and wrapped them carefully. , and then lay them out in layers.
In the corner, put a few mothballs.
At this moment, Su Ya's voice came from outside the house.
“Auntie, is Yanzi at home?”
"In the room, just came back from outside."
While Yang Xia was talking, Fang Yan came out.
I saw that Su Ya did not come back alone. She also brought Luo Yihe and other members of the May 4th Literary Club with her. They all looked energetic.
"Teacher Fang!"
"Are you...Classmate Ruoxue?"
Bai Ruoxue's figure suddenly appeared in Fang Yan's sight.
After asking, I found out that Su Ya came back as a reporter for the Yan University newspaper to interview him, the author of "The Fission of the Qin Dynasty". As for Bai Ruoxue and Luo Yihe, they were purely on their own A literary delegation from Yanda came here because of its reputation.
"Ah, Teacher Fang turns out to be so young!"
"Teacher Fang, I really like your "The Fission of the Qin Dynasty"!"
"Teacher Fang, this is Can you sign my handwritten copy of "Love Life"?
"Teacher Fang, can you talk about poetry creation?"
"Teacher Fang..."
Looking at the students swarming up, Fang Yan couldn't laugh or cry.
It’s crazy to chase celebrities all the way home!
He signed a few casually, but the enthusiasm of others remained undiminished. He had no way of answering all kinds of questions.
"Everyone be quiet and ask one by one!"
Seeing this, Bai Ruoxue shouted to help him.
“Yes, yes, be quiet.”
Students shouted one after another.
“I can’t answer every question.”
Fang Yan said: "I can only answer you as best I can."
"Teacher Fang, many people say that "The Fission of the Qin Dynasty" is called historical literature, but it is actually reform literature. You want to use Shang Yang's reform to support reform, then What kind of reforms do you think can make China rise?"
Among the visiting group, a tall man was named.
“First of all, before answering this question, we need to discuss whether we should call China’s development a ‘rise’?”
Fang Yan said in a serious tone.
"Reading for the rise of China, what I always talk about is 'rise'." Su Ya, Luo Yihe and others looked at each other.
Bai Ruoxue asked coldly: "If we don't use the word 'rise', Teacher Fang, what word do you think should be used?"
Fang Yan blurted out, "Fuxing."
"Revival?!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
"That's right!"
Fang Yan explained: "From scratch, from weak to strong, from small to big, it is called rise, and revival is from failure to success after prosperity and decline. Decline returns to prosperity, returns from trough to peak, Re-emergence, do you think China is now considered a 'resurgence' or a 'rejuvenation'? "
"Is there a difference between re-emergence and re-emergence? "
Students? Puzzled.
“Of course!”
"The difference between rise and rejuvenation is related to a cultural self-confidence! Historical self-confidence! Even the self-confidence of a big country!"
Fang Yan glanced at the crowd and said in a deep voice:
"Maybe you have walked through The mountain road is where Xu Xiake once stayed. Perhaps the pass you have passed through is where the Six Kingdoms once patrolled and refused. If you dare to move forward, maybe the tower you are standing and overlooking is the one that Yu Qian once firmly guarded..."
"Perhaps the biggest gifts left to our descendants in this land are these two things, one is History, one thing is culture”
“Does Teacher Fang mean...”
Bai Ruoxue said: "If we are not confident in China's history and culture, how can we talk about reform?"
"Yes, let's take an incident around me as an example."
Dialect opens his mouth and gives examples of "two simple characters".
The second simplified character is the second simplification and second reform of Chinese characters. It is also the product of the movement to abolish Chinese characters. Throughout modern history, from the late Qing Dynasty to the present, the abolition of Chinese characters and Latinization of characters have been implemented. This movement has never stopped. Even before Mr. Lu Xun died, he said in an interview: "If Chinese characters are not destroyed, China will perish."
Having said this, he slowly asked:
"Do you think there should be such radical reforms?"
"..."
Everyone, look at me, I Look at you.
Bai Ruoxue pondered for a long time, "Teacher Fang, as far as I know, the use of 'two simplified characters' is now prohibited."
"Yes, I think this is completely the right move!"
Fang Yan solemnly said: "China is the greatest nation, Chinese characters are the most beautiful writing, and Chinese is the most elegant language. In order to popularize and Such reform is acceptable to eliminate illiteracy, but I will never accept oversimplification."
"The second reform plan deviates from the original intention. , obviously not confident in Chinese characters, not confident in culture, and the concept of "Western things are always better" is at work in the mind, and the Chinese characters are translated into pinyin, which is divorced from the original essence of Chinese culture. "
< br>"Reform must be based on cultural confidence."
Bai Ruoxue blinked, "Teacher Fang, is that what you mean?"
"No wonder Teacher Fang said that China's development is a 'rise' or a 'rejuvenation'. This difference is very important."
Luo Yihe and others suddenly realized.
"China!"
Dialect said seriously: "Since ancient times, it has stood among the nations of the world. In the past thousand years, Chinese civilization has been far superior to that of the West and has always been the top of the world...< br>
Only at night During the Qing Dynasty, the great powers opened the door of China with artillery. The Opium War, the Sino-Japanese War, and the Gengzi Revolution completely shattered our proud self-confidence, which made many people doubt and doubt China's civilization and history. Denial, inferiority.”
"But the fact is that China has been ahead of the West for thousands of years. Modern times are just a brief accident in history. This is not the norm."
"The founding of the People's Republic of China in October, the Chinese nation has stood up again! ”
“Anti With the US aid to Korea, China has demonstrated its national and military might!”
“…”
“Now is the time to develop and become prosperous. Sooner or later, China will return to its original state! location! ”
"Bah bang bang!"
In an instant, there was thunderous applause.
At this moment, the students at Yan'an University were excited:
"Teacher Fang, you said it well!"
"To be confident in culture, we must first be confident in literature."< br>
"No wonder Teacher Fang wrote "The Fission of the Qin Dynasty" to vindicate Shang Yang and the Qin State. It turns out that it has this meaning."
"Teacher Fang, please say a few more words!"
“…………”
Faced with the request of these passionate young people, Fang Yan raised his voice, improvised an improvisation on “Why Are We Nationally Confident” and said it loudly, The sound echoed throughout the courtyard.
It was just a lie at first, but as I talked, I got deeper into the drama, and before I knew it, my eyes filled with tears.
"Countless benevolent and righteous people, working hard and risking their lives, use pens, guns, or their own lives to promote change. All their lives are for a simple dream: May our country be independent, prosperous and strong."
"Mr. Sun said: With our tens of years of mortal life, we can build a country that will not die for hundreds of millions of years." Foundation.”
“I hope China will become the most prosperous country in the world, I hope China will become the most peaceful country in the world, and I hope the Chinese people will become the most happy people in the world!”
< br>“This is their Chinese dream!”
“What about ours?”
"I have such a Chinese dream!"
"The dream is that one day, China will stand tall among the world's powerful nations again, and let the voice of rejuvenation ring from the waves of the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers! Let the voice of rejuvenation come from North China and South China Let the voice of rejuvenation ring in the fertile soil of northern Xinjiang! Let the voice of rejuvenation ring in the mountains and mountains of the northeast and southwest! "I have such a Chinese dream!"
"..."
"For this dream, we must work together and fight together. , study together and work together, because I know that one day, our dreams will come true. This is our great motherland and we are a great nation.
One day, we can face all the martyrs and benevolent people who have earnestly hoped for the prosperity of the country, the independence of the nation, and the rejuvenation of China, and face their question, "How will China be in a hundred years?"
"You can answer that the mountains and rivers are still there, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and China is prosperous, why is it not prosperous? This prosperous age is as you wish!"
The loud words were filled with tears, There was no technique, it was all emotion. Fang Yan moved himself.
Bai Ruoxue, Su Ya and other girls stared at him blankly, their eyes blurred, and tears welling up in their eyes.
Luo Yihe and the other boys also stared at him, mesmerized, their eyes even more obsessed and confused than those of the girls.
