Chapter 75 Pretending to Win or Lose

"Why are they?" Jiang Cheng beside Wang Jinze didn't know why.

However, He Ying, his opponent, had already nodded slightly in agreement. Tang Guoguo felt even more like a spring breeze when she listened to Wang Jinze's melodious voice.

"Liu Ling was one of the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove" in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. I don't need to say more about his deeds. He and Dukang made wine while the other drank. They are known as 'Dukang makes wine and Liu Ling gets drunk'." And his most famous There is nothing better to say than what is recorded in "Shishuo Xinyu", "I regard the heaven and the earth as my building, and my rooms as my trousers." Why did you get into my pants? ’. "

Wang Jinze took his time and put forward his own point of view:

"Although such remarks may sound simple and rude, they also highly summarize the architectural views of Chinese literati in the past dynasties."

The students don’t know why:

"Does his view of architecture mean living in the wilderness?"

"Isn't there an idiom about "covering the sky and covering the earth", or what he said?

"Yes, this idiom comes from Liu Ling's "Ode to the Virtue of Wine"."

Wang Jinze expressed his affirmation:

"The original text of this passage says, 'There is a gentleman who regards the heaven and the earth as a dynasty, ten thousand periods as a moment, the sun and the moon as a canopy, and the eight wastelands as a thoroughfare. There are no traces in his travels, and no house or house in his house. The sky is on the ground and the earth is on the ground, you can do whatever you want.' You must know that this extraordinary view of architecture is contrary to other views at the time. Because almost all the architectural views of emperors and nobles in Chinese history were proposed by Xiao He to Liu Bang The architectural view of the later generations has moved from magnificence to extravagance. The common people's architectural view is based on the "choose it" method described by Han Yu, a great writer in the Tang Dynasty, and put forward by the mason Wang Chengfu. "Those who make it possible can do it" is a typical example; then the third type is the ecological and green architectural concept advocated by literati like Liu Ling."

This summary is indeed a bit convoluted.

Everyone still couldn't understand it after going around for a long time.

Chu Mingchen watched Tang Guoguo face Wang Jinze with a look of admiration and confusion. She still acted like a villain and opened her mouth to break the illusion brought to her by those fancy descriptions.

"When you say it's so complicated, don't you just want to tell us that these three architectural views are distinguished by money and status? It's better to make it simpler."

After Chu Mingchen finished speaking, he stretched out his finger and listed the main points simply and crudely:

"Local tycoon type!"

“Economical!”

“Oh, there’s also a blank type!”

Upon hearing this explanation, there was a burst of laughter in the bus.

Lou Xinyue laughed so hard that her flowers trembled. She turned around and gave Chu Mingchen a high-five. But when she saw that Tang Guoguo was unhappy, she put her arms around Tang Guoguo's shoulders to comfort her:

"What a rough talk! He said so much that we couldn't understand it. It's so easy to understand!"

Tang Guoguo didn't say anything. She glanced at Wang Jinze secretly and then silently lowered her head.

Who wants to understand!

They are competing! Why are you doing this?

But when the bus became quiet again, Wang Jinze continued to explain his point of view with a smile.

"Chu Mingchen's understanding can be said to be that he only knows the surface but not the inside." He refuted Chu Mingchen without hesitation.

"Because the ecological and green concept adhered to by literati cannot be said to be completely impoverished, but a positive concept to achieve the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. This can be proved from the concept of 'Landscape City' proposed by Academician Qian Xuesen . And Tao Yuanming, who shares this idea with Liu Ling, is a representative who takes this idea to the extreme. The first poem of "Returning to the Garden and Living in the Fields" makes it very clear."

Speaking of Tao Yuanming's "Returning to the Garden and Living in the Fields", the students here are no strangers to it.

But the architectural concept conveyed in it still needs to be analyzed by Wang Jinze:

"For example, there is a sentence like, 'There are more than ten temples in a square house, and eight or nine thatched huts.' Although it is talking about thatched huts, it is obvious that this standard has exceeded the living standards of ordinary poor people; as for 'The back eaves are shaded by elms and willows, and the peaches and plums are in front of the hall. ’, which also shows that the owner of the thatched house knows how to combine trees, flowers, and architecture with architecture. This kind of creation, which is both practical and ornamental, has also been adopted by modern garden-style communities."

"In Chinese history, there were many literati like Liu Ling and Tao Yuanming who were engaged in architecture part-time. In addition to building their own houses and gardens, and directly discussing their architectural views, they also used poems, poems, poems, essays, and paintings as inspiration. Media, use your own perspective to comment on architecture, such as the "Si Gan" chapter in the "Book of Songs", the "Liangdu Fu" of the Han Dynasty, and the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", etc. It is these that distinguish it from architecture Only the existence of the works of literati can enable future generations to have infinite reveries about the buildings after they disappear. So you see, who says the most useless are scholars? The influence of Chinese literati on traditional architectural concepts is so invisible , yet profound.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Cheng led the other team members and clapped their hands.

Although Wang Jinze's answer sounds more romantic, it is already considered by the students to be the best answer.

If I were competing against He Ying, I really wouldn't be able to think of such a tricky angle.

But Lou Xinyue on He Ying's side was not convinced.

She directly threw what Jiang Cheng asked He Ying back unchanged: "Then what you said so much has to do with ancient Western architecture?"

After Jiang Cheng heard this, he wanted to say something but was speechless.

She secretly regretted it in her heart. She didn't expect that the hole she dug would be jumped by her own people.

However, Wang Jinze still gave Lou Xinyue a warm smile, and then said calmly: "I really don't have a deep understanding of this aspect. But I can briefly talk about the different views of naturalism between the East and the West."

Although he acted very calmly in the face of everyone's gaze, his gentle licking of the corners of his lips still revealed his inner nervousness.

After thinking for half a minute, he continued:

"Most Westerners advocate humanism, people and nature, and people come first. Of course, there are also people who love nature, such as Emperor Hadrian of ancient Rome. He would build his villa in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters outside the city, but absolutely He will not surrender himself to nature like Tao Yuanming, but appreciate nature as the owner of nature. And more architects regard the building itself as a fortress against the tyranny of nature. However, as environmental awareness increases, Their attitude towards nature has also changed."

Although this explanation was simple, it still won the affirmation of everyone, including He Ying.

But since it is a competition, we have to compete.

Just when Lou Xinyue was about to get up and let the students vote on who won and who lost, the bus stopped steadily.

The driver's voice then sounded: "We've arrived at the service area! Everyone can take a rest and we'll set off in ten minutes."

The students had already had backaches from sitting. When the car door opened, they got up and got out of the car to get some air.

Lou Xinyue had no choice but to give up and follow her three roommates to the bathroom to rest.

Because several people were seated near the front, we found our seats with almost no queue.

He Ying was never willing to chat with her roommates in the bathroom, but just as she was silently adjusting her clothes, she heard the girls lining up outside complaining:

"Where did that He Ying come from? How come our landscape garden's Xicao competes with her? She even added her WeChat account! Oh my god! I didn't even add Xicao's WeChat account!"

"Who knows!" Another sour voice followed, "Also! The person who has a crush on Wang Jinze is really a pig! What kind of incense did she burn? She actually hugged Wang Jinze! Wang Jinze will not really follow her Let her be together! That would be really nice!"

"Who says it's not the case! But if I were Wang Jinze, I would definitely choose a beautiful top student instead of a pig." After the girl at the beginning finished speaking, she smiled happily.

"Impossible!" Jiang Cheng's voice was mixed in again, "He Ying is color blind, Brother Jinze will not choose any of them!"

The two girls seemed to have enjoyed a huge meal and were about to continue gossiping with Jiang Cheng.

He Ying heard the sound of the door being kicked open next door where Gu Zhaodi was, followed by his cold voice:

"He Ying, Tang Guoguo, you two hurry up. There are too many flies in this bathroom, I feel sick."

Then, Gu Zhaodi walked straight to the middle of the queue of female classmates and stood there like a fierce god. She was so scared that all the girls shut their mouths tightly and even flushed the water carefully.

He Ying and Lou Xinyue came out soon and were waiting for Tang Guoguo with Gu Zhaodi.

They thought that this silly girl would cry inside again before she would come out after hearing what she just said, but everyone present did not expect that Tang Guoguo actually jumped out humming music.

Seeing that her three roommates all had grim faces, she took off her headphones and said with an apologetic smile: "Yeah, I'm sorry! I ate too much wisteria cake in the morning and my stomach felt a little uncomfortable, so I stayed a little longer. ."    Hearing this, the three roommates looked at each other, then turned and left.

Tang Guoguo quickly chased after him.

At this time, Chu Mingchen had finished his rest and bought a lot of snacks. When he saw the four girls coming out, he greeted them to get in the car: "I asked Teacher Ye just now. We will get off the expressway in a while. We still have more than an hour's drive to the hotel. There is no time to eat in the meantime. Let's use these to cushion our stomachs first!"

"Ah~~Chu Mingchen, you are so kind! How did you know I was hungry?" Tang Guoguo smiled with eyes wide open and took the initiative to help Chu Mingchen share a bag.

Gu Zhaodi and Lou Xinyue also took the bags and planned to get in the car to choose what they like to eat.

"That's right! Who can be better than me?" Chu Mingchen looked up and saw Wang Jinze standing in front of the bus. His tone instantly turned gritty, "But you have to be obedient and don't be abducted by some people." Ran!"

"Who are some people?" Tang Guoguo didn't understand.

But he heard Wang Jinze behind him say hello to him at the right time: "Tang Guoguo, we're leaving in a few minutes, so hurry up and get in the car."

"Oh, okay." Tang Guoguo's face turned red again, but her heart was like a screaming chicken: Ahhhh! what happened! He, he actually talked to me again! ! !

Chu Mingchen didn't care about Wang Jinze's false feelings, so he pulled Tang Guoguo and rushed into the car.

Gu Zhaodi and Lou Xinyue also followed.

But when He Ying was about to get in the car, Wang Jinze stopped him: "He Ying."

"What?" He Ying turned around.

"You won. I'm willing to admit defeat. I will fulfill my promise." Wang Jinze said calmly.

He Ying asked hurriedly: "Will you be with Tang Guoguo?"

Wang Jinze smiled and answered the question: "Then do you know why she chased me?"

"Why?" He Ying shook his head.

"Because, she was always bullied and called a pig's head when she was a freshman in high school."

Wang Jinze said, not forgetting to respond when someone greeted him, but he continued to tell He Ying about his encounter with Tang Guoguo:

"We didn't have much contact with each other, but once during the school's collective cleaning, I was assigned to carry a bucket to water the flowers, and she was assigned to sweep the open space outside the teaching building. From that time on, she was very serious about what she did, and she even turned her head when sweeping the floor. She didn't know how to lift it. But when I saw her upstairs, some girls deliberately poured water downstairs. In desperation, I poured the water in the bucket and put the empty bucket on her head. She was fine. , I was showered with dirty water."

After he finished speaking, he laughed softly.

"So, Tang Guoguo has fallen in love with you since then?" He Ying felt that this must be the reason.

"Probably." Wang Jinze curled his lips, "Because since that time, I have received love letters from her. Although I don't like her, I don't want to add insult to injury, so you know, just like this, let her misunderstand me. Deeper and deeper.”

He Ying did not agree with this explanation: "Then since you know everything, you should tell her clearly! Instead of giving her opportunities again and again!"

Wang Jinze nodded: "I didn't make it clear before, but I thought she didn't have any good friends, but now that she has you, I can rest assured."

Good guy, all these good people have been killed by him!

He Ying rolled her eyes in her heart and warned her: "Although I think it's better to make it clear, Tang Guoguo is very serious about you. I still hope you can solve it in a tactful way and don't let her get hurt."

"You don't have to worry about what I do." Wang Jinze glanced at his watch and tilted his head towards He Ying, "It's time, get in the car."

He Ying boarded the bus without saying anything.

After Wang Jinze counted the number of people, he reported to the team leader Qi Xiaozhen that it was time to set off.

The bus slowly left the service area.

It was noon at this time, and the five people in He Ying's group ate and drank in a tacit understanding, and then began to catch up on their sleep.

Compared with the hustle and bustle of the first half of the trip, the second half of the trip seemed quiet and boring.

But on such an occasion, the five Tianyang top academics sitting in the last row of the bus started a crazy mode of making up for the history of ancient Chinese architecture.

During the five minutes of rest time, Lin Ru told his mentor Guo Chengde everything that happened in the bus.

The six teachers and students agreed that this format will be an important part of the question and answer session of the finals. So as a weak project, this part of knowledge requires the five of them to learn every opportunity.

Of course, the remaining eight teams almost coincided with their ideas.

Wang Jinze, who was still asleep, had just proposed to his mentor Qi Xiaozhen that he needed to focus on learning about ancient Western architecture, and he got approval.

then.

In the following time, documents on the history of Chinese and foreign ancient architecture, as well as notes and expansion materials, were compiled one after another. They were named "Top Secret" and were quickly passed to their group members by the students in the bus. At the same time, each group The tutor also began to adjust the focus of review, and the WeChat notification sounds on the mobile phone came and went one after another.

There seemed to be no disturbance inside the bus, but in fact there was an undercurrent surging.

And this is exactly what He Ying likes to hear and see.

Just a second ago, she had just stopped Tang Guoguo from wanting to read the notes. The reason was also posted in the WeChat group:

[The purpose of the final round of the Ancient Architecture Competition is to assess everyone’s basic level. Teacher Ye has already stipulated the scope of review for us, so you don’t necessarily have to write down the Chinese and Western expansion parts. 】

Chu Mingchen: [Then why did you say that just now? 】

He Ying: [bluffing them! 】

Chu Mingchen: [666! 】

Gu Zhaodi: [+1]

Tang Guoguo: [But I don’t know the basics, so what should I do? 】

Lou Xinyue: [I’m so sleepy, please stop sending messages. 】

The four people put away their mobile phones and returned to silence.

because

Just now Ye Fangyu sent a notice to them:

[Today, I have applied for a place for you in Tsinghua University’s earthquake resistance exchange meeting for ancient buildings. The meeting will be held at 5 pm. After the two-hour speech, there will be an academic cocktail party. It's best for you not to do anything that you don't have on the road. The key is to recharge your batteries. 】

The work is on the shelves today, I hope you will support it. We will try our best to keep it updated daily after it is put on the shelves. Please read it more.
