Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 772
"Although you said that both scientific research and literary creation need fantasy, I think there is still a big difference between the two in essence?" Yang Wen asked a question from the script.

Yang Fan nodded, "I remember hearing Zhang Zhong discussing this issue before. In fact, literature and science were not separated at the beginning. In ancient times, scientists were equal to writers. The Sutra contains a wealth of knowledge about philosophy, astronomy, etc. Over time, science and literature have acquired independent disciplinary status from each other."

Zhang Zhong went on to say, "Physics always wants to grasp things that are far away from itself, but literature always needs to grasp things that are closer to itself."

"Is it the same even for science fiction literature?" Yang Wen asked.

Zhang Chong said with a smile, "Same, as I said before, science fiction is not science. The scientific and technological knowledge in it is secondary, and the most important thing is to express the heart. No matter how far the research of physicists has progressed, science fiction works Still under the author's own control."

"Speaking of which, I have a question I want to ask Zhang Chong. I really like one of your short stories called "Life is Like Strings". When I read this novel, I sometimes think, Could it be the little blind man in the novel. In the field of physics, we are sometimes like blind men. Maybe the world we think is completely different from what it used to be. For example, we see the person sitting under the buttocks now The sofa, we say it is blue, but there is a question whether the blue we see is the same, and seeing the color is just a visual effect of our human body to the light, but what is it like? , we have no way of knowing. Because there is light, and because it can reflect light, we can perceive something we call color through the reflected light.”

Yang Fan picked up the teacup but didn't drink any water, and continued, "All our research, what we see, what we hear, and what we feel do not depend on what the world is like, but on ourselves. Why did you create such a blind character?"

After finishing speaking, Yang Fan took a sip and said.

Yang Wen was still confused by what Yang Fan said just now.

But there is no need for her to speak at the moment, because Zhang Zhong quickly said, "I don't think as much as Mr. Yang. The story of life is like a string is more about thinking about survival. Life is like a string. Like a string, one end of the string is the self, and the other end is the purpose. Only when both ends exist, can the string of life be taut and make a sound. Everyone’s purpose is different, just like Mr. Yang, what do you think about this There are still too many confusions in the world, and no one can give you answers to these confusions, so you are always pursuing the answer. Although the answer may be far away, or you may never be able to pursue it, as long as it is at the other end of the string, then This string can be broken. I think the purpose itself is nothing, what is important is to get joy from the tense process. People thousands of years ago did not know that starfish are round, and that the sun is bigger than starfish. Not to mention that starfish are just a drop in the ocean in the universe, but the pursuit of scientists has never stopped..."

"I sometimes stand under the starry sky and look up. Occasionally, I feel a sense of frustration. There are so many things we don't know in this world. Even if I spend my whole life, I can't see everything. Not to mention the stars hanging in the sky I don't have the chance to visit, even the starfish under our feet, I can only see it in case."

Yang Fan nodded and said, "Manpower is sometimes exhausted, which is quite helpless."

……

The chat between the two gradually deepened. Although Yang Fan is a physicist, his literary literacy is not low. After chatting with Zhang Chong, he began to discuss the meaning of life.

Who are you, where are you from, where are you going.

They can even talk about this kind of problem.

Yang Wen on the side was a little helpless, and she couldn't talk about many topics, because she couldn't understand many things the two said, so she could only take the time to ask the questions in the script when she saw a good time.

Two hours of this chat passed, and there was no rest except for some water in the middle.

But after two hours of program recording, a small half of the questions on the script were still left unanswered.As the host, Yang Wen has become a bystander, leaving Zhang Zhong and Yang Fan in the director's studio.

Perhaps because he noticed Yang Wen's predicament, Zhang Zhong brought the topic back at the end of the show, "What books does Ms. Yang usually like to read?"

Hearing Zhang Zhong's question, Yang Wen looked at him gratefully. Although it was a question, it seemed that the guest and the host had switched roles, but in the end, the leading power of the topic was handed over to her, the host. , she can also take advantage of the opportunity to ask the questions on the script, and the rest depends on post-editing.

In the end, after two and a half hours, the program was finally recorded.

Yang Wen breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and said to Zhang Zhong and Yang Fan, "Finally, I would like to thank you two for your sharing today. I think many viewers must be like me, and they will benefit a lot from listening to your sharing today."

Afterwards, Zhang Zhong and Yang Fan left the studio, and Yang Wen stayed to record some scenes.

On the way back to the lounge, Yang Fan said with a smile, "It's easier to be on this kind of program than I imagined. I haven't chatted like this for a long time."

"Mr. Yang's words today also touched me deeply." Zhang Chong complimented with a smile.

"Oh, by the way, don't forget what I entrusted to you before."

"Definitely, I will ask Miss Yang to bring me two books after the end."

Yang Fan smiled and said, "You can come to my house if you have time in the future. I heard that you often come to Yanjing."

"It's true that there are more people here, and I will definitely visit you next time I have a chance."

The two sat in the lounge for a while, and Yang Wen came over with a few Zhang Zhong's books in her arms. Zhang Zhong was impressed by this. I didn't expect Yang Wen to be so careful that she still remembered this matter.

After signing these books and handing them over to Yang Fan, the two left the CCTV building.

After watching Zhang Zhong and the others leave, Yang Wen let out a breath and relaxed.

Geng Peng next to her saw her like this, and joked, "Is our host Yang Da also so nervous?"

"Aren't you nervous? The things they talked about are too deep, and it's hard for me to catch up."

Geng Peng smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter. In this episode, everyone will mainly watch the dialogue between the two of them. It's okay if you have less scenes."

"It's good that it's really like this. You can cut it for me when you turn around."
