Chapter 1104 Style
Leng Yulong nodded: "We have encountered similar interference."
Wei Yixin said: "The island country has also expressed a desire to cooperate with us and wants to join us. We are co-editing a "Sino-Japanese Chinese Character Ocean", and we want to have more words than the "Chinese Character Ocean" we are currently compiling. "
"Do we agree?" Zhou Zhi quickly asked: "We really don't know about this situation."
"Our opinion is to do it alone." Wei Yixin said: "Anyway, we have already written more than 87,000 words, and this is not enough."
"Now it seems that they are so enthusiastic about our Hanwen library. They are really trying to steal our patented software package." Gu Kailai looked at Zhou Zhi and said, "Perhaps they want to kill the rabbit!"< br>
When Zhou Zhi thought about the connection between the two things, it was really possible.
“If it can be done independently, I also think it is better to do it independently.” Zhou Zhi said: “And I now find that the combination of dictionary compilation work and font compilation work can save money on font work. A lot of preliminary preparations were made, and the dictionary was able to be digitized first, becoming the first and most reasonable digital result after the dictionary was built. It can be said to be quite remarkable. A wonderful twin project. ”
“Technically, Sichuan University Computer Center has solved almost all the problems. The current bottleneck is mainly the large amount of original work - the code card creation part. ”< br>
“It just so happens that this part of the work, both in terms of methods and results, is quite similar to our dictionary compilation work.”
"If our method is similar, then we can use the character cards prepared for dictionary compilation and transfer them into the Han character library through the scanning recognition program, and our work progress will be greatly accelerated."
" And this time In the meantime, the two senior brothers can continue the next step of work, compiling Japanese and Korean characters."
"When you finish compiling, our work will be almost completed, and then we will complete the follow-up work. You can enter immediately Enter the work of digital typesetting and publishing. ”
“This is the fruit of the hard work of the two brothers over the years, and it can immediately realize the transformation of results, digital transcoding, digital typesetting, and digital publishing. "Chinese Word Sea" will be I The first digitally typeset dictionary in China and the largest one at the same time, its significance will be epoch-making."
Gu Kailai, Leng Yulong, and Wei Yixin looked at each other in confusion. Young people today are so confused. Is it fast? !
The compilation work of "Chinese Character Ocean" was very difficult, but it was just a grind. After eight years of working step by step, the biggest work has been completed.
What is more difficult is transformation, which is to publish this work.
Because there are too many new characters in it, if traditional type printing is used, two sets of large and small characters must be produced. More than 87,000 Chinese characters would require 170,000 characters, which is more than the current traditional eight There are 160,000 more thousand-type characters.
No matter which publisher this work is given to, the publisher will cry.
What if it is carried out simultaneously with the second and third phases of Hanwen Library?
The day the dictionary is made, the wording is also completed simultaneously, and you can immediately enter the stage of typesetting, printing, publishing and distribution!
And the subsequent work will be greatly simplified and convenient compared with traditional methods.
This is the power of digitalization!
Leng Yulong couldn't sit still anymore and stood up: "Let's go to the ministry and find the team leader to report on this new situation."
"No, no, no... Zhou Zhi quickly grabbed Leng Yulong and said, "Let's first ask our two senior brothers to introduce us to the editors of "Chinese Character Ocean"." In terms of compilation ideas and methods, we need to try out the card lists from our senior brothers to see if they are really suitable for our existing scanning and recognition program." "Yes." Leng Yulong couldn't help but said, "I'm a little embarrassed. , Mainly because I was a little excited when I heard my junior brother’s gameplay.”
"Your senior brother's character is like this." Gu Kailai smiled and introduced to Zhou Zhi: "My senior brother gave him the name Lengquan back then. After adding his surname, he was called Leng Lengquan. I hope he can be more famous than others. A layer of calmness."
"That's it." Zhou Zhi thought the stories of the seniors were a bit interesting.
"In the end, I still have the same temper." Gu Kailai laughed at his junior brother.
“Let’s get down to business.” Wei Yixin said with a smile: “What my junior brother just said, the concept of China, Japan and Korea is actually adopted by us in "Chinese Character Sea"."< br>
"Really?" Zhou Zhi was pleasantly surprised: "I thought a 90,000-word dictionary couldn't be that simple!"
Leng Yuquan smiled and said: ""Chinese Character Ocean" is mainly composed of two parts: Some of them are collected from existing Chinese dictionaries, such as " "Shuowen Jiezi", "Yupian", "Guangyun", "Jiyun", "Kangxi Dictionary", "Hanyu Dictionary" and other books;"
"The other part is It is a word that has been lost in reference books of all ages and should be included."
“Among them are difficult characters from Buddhist scriptures, difficult characters from Taoist scriptures, Dunhuang common characters, common characters from the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, dialect characters, newly created characters with science and technology, as well as characters that are still used in people’s names and place names today.” Wei Yixin added: “In addition, popular Taiwan Island, Hong Kong Island, Pu Island The common characters of the area, dialects, and Chinese characters popular in the island countries, Korea, New Island and other countries are also included in the book."
The more Zhou Zhi listened, the more excited he became. If this thing can be used, Han characters will be used. The library can be completed in the third phase directly!
"What about the editing method?" This time it was his turn to become unable to sit still.
The compilation method is very important. If the compilation method is too different from the method used by Hanwen Library and logically cannot be transcoded, then only character cards can be used.
But if the two are interoperable, the arrangement logic of the font card is close to the arrangement logic of the font code points, which can reduce a lot of workload in the process of transcoding and warehousing.
"As for the writing style, the characters in "Chinese Character Ocean" are still arranged according to the traditional radical division. Characters with the same radical are arranged according to the number of strokes, and characters with the same stroke are arranged according to the stroke order;"
"The establishment of radicals is based on the 214 volumes of the Kangxi Dictionary, and will be deleted and separated as appropriate, resulting in a total of 210 volumes. Where is your Han character library?"
"Ours is also based on the 214 volumes of the Kangxi Dictionary, but we also absorb Wangma's root compilation method. In the end, there are 276 radicals in total, 259 of which are Wangma already exists, and the remaining seventeen are found in other non-basic Chinese characters.”
"Beautiful!" Wei Yixin expressed his appreciation: "The radicals and roots also conform to the structure of Chinese characters. For example, the word "福" for blessing is composed of three parts in oracle bone inscriptions. The first is the part next to the word "shi". , which means an altar, and then the right part, which is a ritual vessel such as a grain or a grain of rice at the bottom. There are two hands, and the whole word is the understanding of holding ritual vessels with both hands and placing them on the altar, hoping to receive blessings from the ancestors."
"Yes, returning to the origin of Chinese characters, the strokes are like atoms, the root of the word. Just like molecules, the final organized Chinese system is the organism," Leng Yulong said. This is a very scientific induction method, which is more advanced than the traditional radical addition method. "But this method is not simple enough," Zhou Zhi said, "So as a dictionary for daily use, it is more convenient to follow the radical strokes." .”
