Riding the wind of rebirth

One type is academic articles with solid arguments that refute some of the confusing cultural trends in society before.

Those who write this kind of articles are generally scholars with relatively high academic level who have long wanted to speak their minds. Some of them are professors or researchers at schools. Their previous submissions were often rejected by magazines as not meeting their requirements, but the Internet platform gives them the opportunity to speak out.

One group began to fight back against the excessive glorification of the West in some magazines. Now everyone can visit some foreign media websites and school information databases. As long as you are proficient in foreign languages, you can see that many domestic magazines obviously have a "beautification filter" for the West. They will find some Western reporting information and statistical data such as social cases and racial discrimination to refute them.

Many college students like to do this. Although digging out facts to fight rumors is a naive way of fighting, it is simple and direct. They don’t need to think too deeply and they can learn a foreign language at the same time. Therefore, it does not prevent them from doing it happily.

Another group directly starts to slap the faces of the "public intellectuals", stripping off their disguises and exposing their true faces on the Internet.

This type of people have some talent as online gossip reporters. It is hard to say whether their purpose is really to "promote positive energy" or whether they have initially understood the Internet's essence of "eyeball economy."

But at least it has greatly increased the popularity of several major university forums, and even many traditional media have quoted and reprinted them.

This documentary is Chi Xueli's transformational masterpiece. From being a news program host at a provincial TV station when she met Zhou Zhi, she has gradually developed into a popular program producer and channel director. Now she has finally realized her dream when she was studying - to be a documentary director.

This profession actually has certain risks, especially those related to society and culture, which can easily bring fame but also lead to criticism.

The ideas, outline, and even many of the texts for this documentary were written by Zhou Zhi, but considering the possible impact of the film, even Zhou Zhi had some concerns.

This is not the era when countries have become fully powerful in the future, and national confidence has not yet risen. Although the documentary focuses on the presentation of historical facts, its background and tone are very obvious.

When Zhou Zhi handed the information to Chi Xueli, he also told her about his concerns.

Chi Xueli just smiled and said, "Anyway, thanks to your guidance on those programs, I am now financially independent. The worst that can happen is that I can retire early and enjoy life."

Fortunately, it seems that Chi Xueli not only does not have to retire, but will be even busier.

Since there is such a resource who has been trained to be a master, Zhou Zhi also decided to let her make two documentaries about Yi culture, "The Epic Leoti" and "Bimo Nuo Ritual".

For Chi Xueli, who produced "Blood Veins River", the structure of these two documentaries is much simpler.

"The Epic Leoti" will be stored in the Provincial Museum and the National Museum as information materials in the future. The production is very simple, just make the video into DVD volumes, add bilingual subtitles in Chinese and Yi on one subtitle track, and add English subtitles on another.

The other "Bimo Nuo Ritual" is much more complicated, with many related introductory texts, which will also be stored as information materials in the Provincial Museum and the National Museum.

After receiving Zhou Zhi's suggestion, Chi Xueli agreed to produce the two documentaries, but she could not help but despise Zhou Zhi's reluctance to discard any information, because Zhou Zhi's approach was a way of collecting information and he did not like embellishment and processing, which was far from the artistic conception and texture of "Blood Veins River".

Therefore, she made a request to Zhou Zhi, that is, she could produce the "Leoti" and "Bimo Nuoyi" documentaries according to Zhou Zhi's requirements. However, in addition to producing two researcher documentaries that are unlikely to have an audience, she would also produce two real documentaries.

Chi Xueli is a germaphobe. She thinks that "Blood River" was made with the help of Zhou Zhi and that her originality is not enough. She wants to make a documentary with her own "pure blood genes".

Zhou Zhi thought it was a little funny, but he also respected Chi Xueli's persistence and agreed. "Brother Elbow, do you want to go fishing today?" Just as Zhou Zhi was re-annotating his great master Gu Shaoxian's Guangyun Shuzheng, a little head popped out of the door. It was a child named Erjia: "I caught all the water silkworms."

The manuscript of "Guangyun Shuzheng" took more than a year to compile. Zhou Zhi annotated and proofread it once, and Gu Youwen proofread it again. It is now out.

The one in Zhou Zhi's hand was a printout, and on it there were many modifications and additions made by Gu Youwen based on his annotations. Zhou Zhi read the printed manuscript and enjoyed it in advance.

A good book is worth reading a thousand times. For Gu, who annotated "Shuowen Jiezi" five times, reading and annotating a book repeatedly is not a big deal, it is just a way to review the old and learn the new.

Zhou Zhi was annoyed when his study progress was interrupted by a child. He looked at the calendar on the electronic clock and said, "It's not the weekend today. Erjia, how dare you skip class? Go back and study!"

Erjia felt very wronged: "We are drinking opera today! What class are we taking?"

"What the hell?" Zhou Zhi didn't understand.

"Let's drink opera, opera, Chi Ni Han Mai Wan, Na Hai Qu Yi Mai Duo La..." Er Jia imitated the big Bi Mo, raised his hands and danced in a special way: "This is what we drink opera."

Zhou Zhi held his forehead with his hand: "Er Jia, if you learn Mandarin, you won't be afraid to travel around the world..."

"Sister Lulu said that if you learn math, physics and chemistry, you won't be afraid to travel around the world..."

Sister Lulu is called Li Lu. She is lively and cheerful. She is a college student who came here to work as an aid teacher. The kids like her very much.

"Sister Lulu is right, but Erjia, if you don't learn Mandarin first, how can you learn math, physics and chemistry?"

"Come out with me, and you'll know when you get out." Erjia felt that it would be better to let Zhou Zhi see it for himself than to explain it to him, so he pulled Zhou Zhi and wanted him to stand up from the chair.

When he came outside, Zhou Zhi discovered that the villagers who came to grind rice, corn grits, and exchange potatoes for rice had formed a long queue at the grain station.

"Auntie, what's going on?" Zhou Zhi took Erjia's hand and came to Gillie Abi and asked.

Jilie Abi was busy beating rice and exchanging rice with several "employees" from the chicken and pig farms. When he saw Zhou Zhi coming over, he said, "Today is our Yi people's New Rice Festival. The new rice has come down, and everyone should celebrate together. However, most of the villagers in the mountains grow corn and potatoes, so during this festival we have to exchange rice, make bait blocks, and beat glutinous rice cakes!"

"I only know about the Torch Festival and the Yi New Year." Zhou Zhi was curious: "So there is also a New Rice Festival?"

"Tiaogong Festival, Bu Nian Festival, Hualian Festival, Zhalu Festival, Mishi Festival, Mizhi Festival, there are better ones."

Zhou Zhi smiled and patted Erjia's butt: "So it's a festival. Let's go and add some dishes!" (End of this chapter)
