Chapter 168 You are too wishful thinking (35)

"Professor Feng objected to the 'ruffian talking about history'. He felt that "Things of the Ming Dynasty" was not rigorous enough and contained personal subjective assumptions, so it could not be called a historical work."

"There are those who support ruffians talking about history, and many people on the Internet regard "Things of the Ming Dynasty" as a classic in the history of the Ming Dynasty."

"The reason why I didn't respond to these comments during this period, regardless of praise or criticism, is that I was a little surprised, a little confused, and very puzzled."

"I don't understand how "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" became a masterpiece of history?"

"I don't even understand that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has become a model for ruffians to talk about history."

"I still don't understand why some people like Professor Song, who have never read "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", can comment on it."

"What I don't even understand is that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has been elevated to the level of blasphemy against history. I really can't afford it."

"I want to tell you a story, a story about the birth of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"."

Lin Xiao didn't pay attention to the reactions of others, but spoke up by himself.

"My grandfather is an old storyteller. He has learned storytelling since he was a child. When he is old, he still uses it as a profession. Our family has passed it down for three generations. The old craft of storytelling has begun to decline in modern times. The decline is not only because of its form. , and there is another fatal point, that is, no one willing to learn this job can be found.”

"Cross talk is about talking, learning and singing, and storytelling is actually more about it, and there are many requirements, but in the eyes of most people, it is a business with no great future."

"So, this skill began to go towards the sunset, and even my dad didn't want to learn it. When I was young, I often followed my grandpa and watched him talk about storytelling, not because I liked it so much, but because, following grandpa, grandpa would give me Buy something delicious."

"I don't know when, my grandfather pinned his hopes on me, the third generation, but I still let him down, because I, like everyone else, found that Pingshu really has no great future."

"Grandpa opened an old teahouse. In fact, the old teahouse has never made any money, but grandpa still keeps it open. I know that's because grandpa only has a platform for storytelling there."

"Grandpa's body is fairly strong, but as he gets older, he will inevitably suffer from some common geriatric diseases, such as high blood pressure."

"When Grandpa was telling the story, he was too emotional and fell into a coma. Although there was no serious problem afterwards, the doctor said that he had better not have too much emotional fluctuations. But when talking about storytelling, he just needs to integrate emotions. Without emotions, how can he behave? The ups and downs of the plot?"

"Our family is so anxious. Grandpa is very stubborn and doesn't listen to people's persuasion. At this time, the Tiger Cat platform is launched. I am a small shareholder of the Tiger Cat platform. Naturally, I want to support my platform."

"Grandpa's greatest wish in this life is to be able to see that there are successors to the skill of storytelling, and to see that this skill can survive without being so difficult."

"So I told my grandpa that Pingshu should also keep pace with the times, and that if more people like Pingshu, they must innovate."

"In the eyes of many people, storytelling is something that older people would like, but I don't think so, because in ancient times, storytelling was a form of entertainment that could cover all age groups, so why is it that Lin Xiao is now What about things that only old people like?"

"So I thought, first of all, I have to give it a try, and see if young people really don't like Pingshu, or just because everyone is familiar with the stories of Pingshu, so they don't like it?"

"So, I thought about using the live webcast platform. The audience of the webcast platform is young people. At the same time, the stories in the storybooks in the past are no longer new. So, I thought, if it is Newspeak Where's Ben?"

"Because of my grandfather's precepts and deeds, I usually read a lot of historical miscellaneous books. However, most of them are stories about those historical figures. Novels, story books, and romances are not official history."

"To be honest, Ming History is the first official history book I have read seriously, so Professor Song said before that I am not qualified to study history, and I agree with it. I still have self-knowledge in this regard."

"What I'm just wondering is that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was not a history book in the first place. At best, it's just a historical storytelling storybook, or a historical cross talk."

"My original intention of writing this work is also to talk about storytelling. I don't understand that a storybook of storytelling will be regarded as official history by so many people, and it will be regarded as a classic."

"What makes me even more puzzled is that there is even some talk about history being involved. I blush after reading those comments. I am clearly writing a historical comic, but there are so many people who want to go online. I can’t judge my history like this, and I can’t afford to say that this is a masterpiece of history, I really can’t afford it.”

"A careful person should be able to notice that in "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", I used guesswork instead of research in many places."

"Because I know that my knowledge is limited, my reading is limited, and I don't have many references, so I can't be as rigorous as history books. As for personal subjective assumptions, as the author of a novel, of course I have my own ideas, but this This is a work that is meant to entertain everyone, promote the art of storytelling, and earn some money for entertainment, but it will be interpreted in one way or another.”

"So, here, I want to make a solemn clarification that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" can be regarded as a storytelling storybook, a historical cross talk, or a historical novel, but please don't elevate it to the level of a historical work. I can't bear it, and "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" can't bear it either."

"Also, Professor Feng, Professor Song, if you want to judge whether the 'ruffian talk about history' is correct, please don't use "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" as an example, because "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" itself is just a "notebook" "A kind of work for everyone's entertainment after dinner."

"It can't create a 'ruffian's history', nor can it afford the leader of a 'ruffian's history'."

"I am just a singer, a storyteller, or a writer, but I am definitely not a historian."

"Also, friends who like "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", just take a look. Don't say that I, the author, have a solid background in Ming history and rigorous academic research. Excessive praise is flattery, everyone, please Now, let’s just listen to the book, if you think it’s good, you can support it, if you don’t think it’s bad, you don’t have to listen to it, don’t do this, it’s boring if it’s on the line.”

Song De was dumbfounded, Feng Zhiyuan was dumbfounded, Yu Fan was also dumbfounded, and everyone in the audience was also dumbfounded.

That’s right, people have already said it, live broadcast storytelling, never said that it is to treat history, and it is everyone’s wishful thinking to regard a storybook of storytelling as official history, and the author didn’t think so at all.
