Chapter 615 The Rosicrucian Manifesto
The sci-fi themed pavilion built in Jiangyang has been capped, but the capping has only just begun, and the project may take some time to complete. As for the official opening, it may have to wait until next year.

At the earliest it will be the end of the year.

Zhang Zhong and the others could wait, but the Jiangyang City Government couldn't wait.

The results of next year's World Science Fiction Convention bid will be announced at this year's World Science Fiction Convention, and the time for this year's World Science Fiction Convention has already been set, August [-]th.

There are only two and a half months left.

There is not much time left for Jiang Yang.

Therefore, in order to speed up the opening of the museum, the Jiangyang City Government gave Zhang Zhong and the others the green light everywhere.

Chen Qing listened to Zhang Zhong's words before and handed over the list of exhibits needed for the exhibition hall to the city government.

Sure enough, the city government was even more anxious than Zhang Zhong and the others, and was busy contacting them when they got the list.

In just one month, one-fifth of the items on the list have been settled.

The idea of ​​the municipal government is very simple, first make the appearance, try to get the exhibits as much as possible, and temporarily find other things to replace them.

After the general appearance is figured out, they can shoot a promotional video.

As long as this promotional video comes out, everything will be solved.

At that time, there is no rush to open the museum. Anyway, they are bidding for the World Science Fiction Convention next year. As long as they can get it before the World Science Fiction Convention next year, it will be fine.

Zhang Zhong could understand the Jiangyang City Government, so he asked Chen Qing to cooperate with them as much as possible.

Of course, it is human nature to take the opportunity to ask the city government to do a little favor.

……

"My course is an open-book exam, so you can bring whatever you want." Zhang Zhong stood on the podium and said with a smile.

"Teacher, can you really bring anything?"

"Of course there is a limit. What you bring must fit in your desk belly. As long as your desk belly fits, you can bring anything."

"How about bringing a mobile phone or a computer?" a student asked.

"of course can."

"Then can I bring my cat?"

Zhang Zhong said with a smile, "It's fine, as long as you can guarantee that it won't affect others."

"Teacher, what subject do you want to test, and why are the conditions so loose?"

"I can't tell you this. As for why the conditions are so loose, it's because I know that even if you bring things, it's useless. In addition, you can learn from things you find on the Internet, but don't quote a lot. If the degree of overlap is too high, I may fail directly." After talking about the exam, Zhang Zhong said, "This is the last class of this semester, and you will enter the exam month, and we should not meet until the next semester starts. "

"Teacher, no, I've already bought a plane ticket to catch up with your signing event."

"Then I'll see you then, but don't think that I'll pass it for you, and if you don't do well in the exam, I won't even give you an autograph even if you line up."

The students in the class all laughed.

"Qi Sheng, you have to study hard this time, otherwise the air ticket will be wasted?"

"What a waste, isn't he just a tourist?"

Zhang Zhong patted the table, "Pay attention to classroom discipline, there are 10 minutes left in this class, let's draw a perfect end to this semester's class. If you have any questions about what you just said, you can ask them now. "

Those who said they wanted to chase after Zhang Zhong's autograph sale said in unison, "Teacher, why don't you tell us about The Da Vinci Code? After reading this book, we are very interested in many things in it, and there are many Confuse."

Zhang Zhong looked around, "You all want to hear it too?"

Most of the students nodded.

"Okay then, I'll just talk casually and try to fool the past 10 minutes." Zhang Chong tapped his fingers on the table, thinking about where to start. After a while, he patted his forehead and said, "I'll give it to you." Tell me about the Rosicrucian Manifesto."

The students were refreshed. The Rosicrucian Society was indeed mentioned in "The Da Vinci Code", but it was not detailed.

"In the seventeenth century, a concept similar to 'the Inquisition, walking with the Catholic army, trying to eradicate all traces of the Rosicrucians' spread quietly in Europe. First in Germany, and later in England. In 1614, the first so-called " The Rosicrucian Manifesto was published, and another was published the following year. The publication of these manifestos caused a sensation at the time, both the Catholic Church and the Jesuits were outraged, but they were also strongly and enthusiastically supported by the liberal factions in the Protestant countries of Europe. User. One of the most influential Rosicrucian advocates was named Robert Flood..."

Zhang Zhong began to talk about the "Rosicrucian Manifesto" to the students. This was not compiled by himself, but based on the "Holy Blood and the Holy Grail" he had read before.

"Holy Blood and the Holy Grail" is a relatively serious "novel". Of course, some people read it as a history book.

When it comes to "The Da Vinci Code", you have to mention "Holy Blood and the Holy Grail".

Because "The Da Vinci Code" does draw on the views in "Holy Blood and the Holy Grail".

Moreover, the authors of "Holy Blood and the Holy Grail" also took Dan Brown to court, claiming that "The Da Vinci Code" plagiarized "Holy Blood and the Holy Grail".

But the authors of "Holy Blood and the Holy Grail" lost their case.

In fact, this situation is indeed unacceptable, because the definition of plagiarism is generally based on plots and specific descriptions, rather than a certain concept.In general, the law only protects how ideas are expressed, not the ideas themselves.

Although the two books have such small stories, it does not affect the influence of the two books themselves.

If "The Da Vinci Code" intends to reveal the secret while telling the story, and the secret is also for telling the story, then "Holy Blood and the Holy Grail" is more like a complete reveal.

As for whether the secrets revealed in this book are true or not, no one can be sure.

However, when Zhang Zhong talked about the "Rosicrucian Manifesto", he just synthesized some historically verifiable information and told the students, and did not express other opinions. After the students have heard it, they will have their own understanding.

Of course, 10 minutes was not enough to finish the "Rosicrucian Manifesto". When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Zhang Zhong stopped.

"Teacher, keep on talking, there's no class anymore anyway."

The students were listening enthusiastically, but they didn't expect Zhang Zhong to pull the switch suddenly, and couldn't help begging Zhang Zhong to continue talking.

"Do what you should do in get out of class when you are in get out of class, and do what you should do after class after class. You guys are going to eat, and I have to go home. If you are interested in what I just said, you can check the information online, maybe I can still find some things that I didn't explain." Zhang Chong smiled, picked up the lesson plan and went out. On the last day of the semester, he still maintained the good habit of not procrastinating in class.
