Popular science says oxygen is poisonous, and the whole internet scolds me for being sick

Chapter 740 Rebellion against Tiangang
Charlie, this fake foreigner, only knows the facts but not the reasons.

The questions he asked were all prepared for him by the team behind him.

If some other foreign scholars came to make things difficult for Ye Zhen.

The nature is completely different.

Others will know at a glance that you are here to cause trouble.

What about banana people like Charlie who have immigrated and changed their nationality?

That couldn't be more appropriate.

Even though the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches seem to be of little use in our daily lives.

The team behind the scenes that allows Banana Man Charlie to ask such questions.

They must have understood the importance of time coordinates and calendars.

You can tell from the way Ye Zhen Charlie speaks.

This was a script that Charlie had memorized some time in advance.

Normally speaking, a fake foreigner like Charlie.

How could one possibly understand people like Guo Moruo and Liang Qichao during the Republic of China period?
Not to mention studying the works written by both of them.

It is great to be able to ask this question in such a targeted and purposeful way.

Obviously he has no good intentions.

According to Ye Zhen's speculation, this should be ten days after he disappeared from the history book.

The team behind Charlie prepared it specifically for Ye Zhen.

The Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches are rarely used by us modern people.

But this has become a very important part of our Chinese civilization.

When taking history classes, there are often historical events named using the Ten Heavenly Stems and Twelve Earthly Branches.

The Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Reform Movement of 1898, the Boxer Protocol, etc.

You may not notice it, but it has already been integrated into our blood.

There is obviously a more convenient Western calendar.

Why do we need to use the Ten Heavenly Stems and Twelve Earthly Branches to name historical events?

This seems like a very strange approach.

Because we in China also have masters.

Just like the architectural feng shui battle in Shanghai back then.

It can be said that our country is a place where there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and talented people are emerging in large

It is definitely not as simple as it seems.

What our country likes to do most is to keep a low profile.

There is a saying in Guangzhou: Pearls are covered by straw.

The Chinese predecessors used the Ten Heavenly Stems and Twelve Earthly Branches to name historical events.

You must have understood the importance of some time coordinates.

Although they may not understand what time coordinates are.

But we can learn about it from clues in our country's history.

The ancients were able to pass down the method of recording time using the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.

There must be some idea behind this.

At that time, many domestic scholars said that we should completely abandon all backward things in our country.

Including but not limited to Chinese characters, lunar calendar, etc.

At that time in the Republic of China, figures of the time such as Li Dazhao, Chen Duxiu, and Lu Xun wanted to abolish Chinese characters and use English instead, considering this as conforming to the trend of the times.

It is believed that if China wants to adapt to the development of the times, it must abolish Chinese characters.

With the advent of computers, typewriters became popular.

Can you imagine how we typed Chinese characters at that time?
Just imagine if our country had not developed computers.

Because of the limitations of Chinese characters, they cannot be adapted to typewriters.

Would we still have this era now?

Just like some European countries today, because they have not developed their own Internet.

Now it looks like stagnant water.

There are only two Internet systems in the world.

One is the Chinese Internet, and the other is the American Internet.

Our two countries are the only ones that have such a developed Internet system.

Therefore, it is very important to preserve our country's characteristics and civilization.

Why is it important? Our ancestors may not know, but their blood and intuition tell them.

These essences of Chinese civilization must be preserved for future generations.

It turns out that South Korea, Japan and Vietnam were once part of our country's cultural radiation zone.

But after entering the period dominated by the West.

All standards are set by the West, including the calendar.

The same is true for the underlying logic and language of computers.

No wonder they want to abolish Chinese characters, want independence and embrace the West.

Only our country is still so conservative and continues to use Chinese characters.

Ye Zhen now actually understands one thing.

“Why do historical events need to be named using the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches?”

“Every major historical event is an important time node.”

"The remaining time coordinates are the dating method of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches."

This is not in vain.

Of course, some scholars in our country know this.

These are the names of the Shang kings starting from the Shang Dynasty.

It is named according to the naming method of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.

"This fake foreigner actually wants to say that our calendar system based on the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches originated from the West."

"This is a lack of understanding of our history. This is what fake foreigners do."

Professor Zhou is a professional in this area.

Old Wu asked Professor Zhou, "Old Zhou, do you know how the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches came about?"

But seeing Lao Zhou shook his head, "There is no accurate statement in history now."

“No one knows who invented the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.”

"It's just that the only reliable historical records we can study now are those of the ancient people during the Shang Dynasty."

"We are already using the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches."

"But the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches must have appeared much earlier than the Shang Dynasty."

"Some scholars say that the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches originated in the era of Emperor Zhuanxu."

“It could be earlier.”

"After all, the Zhuanxu calendar existed in our country for a period of time."

After hearing this, Si Xiaoping immediately felt that this was very possible.

"It is also possible that the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches already existed during the Yellow Emperor's time."

Although there is no evidence.

But Huangdi is the cultural ancestor of Chinese civilization.

It is not surprising that the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches were invented by Emperor Huangdi.

Charlie was speechless now and didn't know what to say.

Originally, the team behind Charlie wanted to embarrass Ye Zhen.

Let the whole world know that Chinese civilization is just a clown.

He is a clown who steals the fruits of other people's civilization.

But now it seems that Charlie is more like a clown.

"So, the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches already existed before the Phoenician alphabet was created."

"It's better to say that the Phoenician alphabet borrowed from our country's Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches." Ye Zhen's words sounded like a heavy punch.

Hit Charlie hard on the head.

Charlie was now dizzy.

It turns out that the phonetic alphabet of Western civilization originated from Chinese civilization?

Some viewers found this not surprising at all.

"I was almost frightened by this fake foreigner."

"Even God is just Zhuanxu!"

"Their alphabet originated from our civilization, what's the problem?"

"Don't assume that any master is always right."

"You've been watching Ye Shen's show for so long, but you still haven't gotten over the mystery of authority?"
