    The two met very late. The key is that Zhang Hanqing understands the self-esteem of literati. In their chats, there is no lack of respect for literati and elevating the status of literature. Of course, he himself has several brushes. After all, he has nearly a hundred years of literary development history as a reference.

    The two were able to talk about entering Hong Kong, and Qian Xuantong couldn't help but put his theory on abolishing Chinese characters on the table.  Times have changed, and I wonder if the young marshal will still stick to his ideas.

    "Zhang Hanqing can't laugh or cry, he is really a tough guy. Isn't it enough that he was beaten once before?"

    Thinking about it, I can¡¯t completely blame him.  As conscientious intellectuals of this era, most of them are passionate about answers that may solve the root causes of poverty and weakness in China.  The Chinese first learned from the West and engaged in the "Westernization Movement"; then after the rise of Japan just across the corner, China began to learn from the East. A large number of historical celebrities including Lu Xun, Cai E, Jiang Baili, Chiang Kai-shek, etc.  Be a pioneer.

    Since foreigners are so powerful, public opinion at that time devalued Chinese things as useless, including Chinese characters and Chinese characters.  The national origin of the Chinese language has been fiercely contested: promoting Mandarin based on Cantonese with one more sound instead of the Beijing dialect we often speak. Historically, the National Congress of the Republic of China, with Cantonese as the majority, almost made it a  Reality, let our descendants learn the pronunciation "Lei Hao, Hen" and become the standard pronunciation.  It was Mr. Sun Yat-sen, the founding father, who mediated to balance the feelings of northerners and chose Beijing dialect by one vote. From this point of view, Sun Yat-sen is worthy of being called the founding father. At least he did not let the minority  Language becomes the public.

    Regarding Chinese characters, many people think that they are no longer in line with the development of the times.  A group of Chinese character reformers headed by Qian Xuantong believed that Chinese characters were difficult to recognize, remember, and write, which was not conducive to the popularization of education, the development of Chinese literature, and the dissemination of scientific and technological knowledge. They advocated the abolition of square Chinese characters and simply replaced them with pinyin.

    After Mr. Zhang Taiyan creatively proposed Zhuyin (which was still used in Taiwan before time travel), his disciple Qian Xuantong has now proposed Pinyin, which is enough for Chinese people to learn Chinese.

    Seeing that Zhang Hanqing knew even these trivial details, Qian Xuantong expressed his great admiration.  Youdao is as separated as a mountain. Zhang Hanqing can be a "martial man", Jier has dabbled in literature, and he can have such attainments in the humble Mandarin. This is definitely not explained by the title of Young Marshal alone.  of.

    Although literati are accustomed to looking down upon each other, they also admire those who truly study knowledge and those who are equally knowledgeable.  However, literati have character. No matter how much Qian Xuantong admired Zhang Hanqing, he was still very optimistic about his prospects of pinyinizing Chinese characters.  Before that, he and his teacher had been advocates for the abolition of Chinese characters.

    This is a bit overkill, but it is very marketable, and Zhang Hanqing feels that he needs to give them a clear opinion.  He wouldn't argue with Qian Xuantong - no matter how reasonable he was, he couldn't argue with a great scholar like him who had been immersed in writing for many years.  After thinking about it for a while, he didn't say much. He just picked up a pen and wrote a line on the paper: "This thing has such a profound impact. Let's sit down at home after breakfast tomorrow and talk about it."

    Qian Xuantong understood it with just one glance. He thought Zhang Hanqing was busy with official duties, but he stood up and left and said, "This way I won't disturb the Young Marshal. We will meet again tomorrow." He said this to the Young Marshal from the bottom of his heart.

    Unexpectedly, Zhang Hanqing laughed and pulled his arm and said, "We had a great conversation, why are you leaving?"

    Qian Xuantong is confused. Aren¡¯t you going to see off guests?  He pointed at Zhang Hanqing's note in confusion, but at this moment he saw Zhang Hanqing also pointed at the note and said, "Professor Qian, did you see clearly?"

    Qian Xuantong took another look and found that there was nothing wrong with it.  Upon closer inspection, I realized that Zhang Hanqing had written the two words in the reverse order: "influence too" became "influence too much", and "breakfast" became "breakfast", but it did not affect his judgment.  ah.

    At this time, Zhang Hanqing smiled and said: "Professor Qian, look, I wrote a sentence. You can understand the main idea just by taking a glance. Even two mistakes do not affect your judgment. Do you think pinyin can achieve this effect?"  ?"

    "This sentence awoke the dreamer, and it turned out that the young marshal used this method to refute his own point of view.  However, what a good refutation!  One example is worth a thousand words and eloquence. He admired Zhang Hanqing's wit!

    Then Zhang Hanqing said: "Chinese characters are the root of the Chinese people. As long as a Chinese person knows about 2,000 Chinese characters, he can read almost all books, which is impossible in any language. This is very important for the current popularization  Literacy education is particularly important in China.

    Pinyin, which separates the associative properties of Chinese characters, can only be used as a representation and not as an aid to learning Chinese characters. Otherwise, it will become a stupid language like English.  You see there are so many words in English, are you still confused?New words are constantly being produced, trying to give a name to everything in the world.  The universe is infinite and the English vocabulary is infinite!  It is simply impossible to understand by analogy like in Chinese.  If we use pinyin instead of Chinese characters, it will be a considerable burden for the vast majority of people in our country who are still illiterate to become illiterate!  "

    Qian Xuantong agreed with this. Only then did he realize that his academic insights were not enough to compare with the young marshal's grand political vision.  This is called real Chinese research, and it is thoroughly studied.

    In this small thatched shed, Zhang Hanqing was barefoot and chatting with Qian Xuantong, not caring about his dignity as a young commander.  Sure enough, "If the mountain is not high, there will be immortals, and there will be fame; if the water is not deep, if there are dragons, there will be spirit."  Although it was a humble house, because of Zhang Hanqing's vision and the demeanor of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Qian Xuantong's admiration for Zhang Hanqing was like the endless waves of a river

    As an influential cultural figure in this period, Qian Xuantong¡¯s admiration for Zhang Hanqing was brought to the Peking University campus.  How can the young marshal, a warrior, care so much about Chinese studies? How can the proud men in the ivory tower feel embarrassed?  Students can only devote themselves to the tide of promoting Chinese studies with fuller enthusiasm. Of course, it is inevitable to go to Fengtian or the Northeast to preach and teach and solve doubts when needed. This is a story later.

    Whenever we talk about the New Culture Movement in history, we cannot avoid mentioning this public case.  Zhang Hanqing's "I Love This Land" is considered the originator of new poetry, and his "My Home is in the Northeast" is also regarded as the pioneer of modern rap.

    Scholars who studied the history of modern literature later wanted to use him as the banner of the New Culture Movement. Zhang Hanqing modestly expressed his disapproval and later instructed to highlight the role of writers.  But how can literary historians with a sense of historical responsibility give up their principles so easily?  The young marshal undoubtedly became the pioneer of the vernacular movement and will go down in history forever.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
