Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Chapter 275: Xing Guogong's visit

Zhao Ke closed his eyes on the chair and raised his head for a while, letting himself be immersed in the aftertaste of the story. Not long after, she suddenly opened her eyes and realized something was wrong, so she reached out and took the piece of paper and looked at it again.

On this one-foot-square piece of paper, there are probably more than two thousand characters distributed. Zhao Ke couldn't believe that he could read so many words in one go. You know, when she used to read, unless it was an old book that she had read a long time ago, she had to stop at intervals to think about the meaning of a sentence and how to break the sentence and other trivial questions.

She carefully recalled the experience when she read the story in her hand just now, and found that she did not stop. Why is this?

Zhao Ke thought about it, but in the end it could only be attributed to Li Xin's weird horizontal writing and the weird symbols distributed in the middle of the sentence. Although I don't understand the meaning of those symbols, after adding them, at least the difficulty of sentence segmentation is greatly reduced, and it is naturally easier to understand the meaning of the text.

After reading the story in his hand twice again, Zhao Ke finally understood what Li Xin was doing in such a big circle.

At the same time, similar things are happening to many people. After they got what the subordinate brought back, they immediately read it eagerly, and then contentedly praised the subordinate for his beautiful work. Some of them were generous, and even rewarded a lot of coins. They were so happy that they laughed, and secretly said that what Zhao Ke said was true. Among them, some did not pay attention, while others did notice-it is obviously a horizontal typesetting that is not in line with people's habits. After adapting to a few lines, they can't feel the resistance it brings, or it is better. In other words, this type of layout even made the reading feel silky for the first time.

They racked their brains and couldn't think of the reason. Of course, Li Xin doesn't know the principle. Perhaps it is because human eyes are naturally better at moving horizontally rather than moving vertically? Forget it, guessing is useless, no matter what the principle is.

Li Xin only needs to know one thing: horizontal layout from left to right is the most common way of writing in later generations, and the punctuation system greatly improves the accuracy of information transmission. Just imagine, if Confucius’s disciples had punctuation at the time when they compiled "The Analects", then people in later generations would not have to be hurt by how to understand the ten words "the people can make it but not know it." Brains out. According to Shannon's "On Information", isn't this reducing the "distortion" in the process of information transmission?

Therefore, Li Xin firmly believes that this is a more advanced writing and typesetting method and must be promoted vigorously. Only by reducing the difficulty of reading and improving the efficiency of information transmission can the spread of truth and knowledge be accelerated. Although it may not be able to see any positive impact in the short term, from a long-term perspective, this is definitely a big punch to promote the development of Datang.

To be honest, Li Xin had already planned this day. The birth of this idea even predates the performance of "White Snake". In later generations, he was often bullied by major platforms because he couldn't fill the members, and he couldn't see the latest episode of his beloved new drama. He didn't expect that after he was reborn in Datang, he would have the opportunity to catch someone else's "neck". However, he believes that he still has more conscience than the video software of later generations.

After all, it is not for the vulgar things like money, but to fully mobilize their enthusiasm in a reasonable way, so that they can take the initiative to adapt to this horizontal typesetting. Just imagine, if it weren't for this way of going around in circles, the promotion of horizontal typesetting and punctuation would definitely meet a lot of resistance. Because most people are always accustomed to following the old fashioned, only when they are extremely eager and curious about the content, this mood can push them to bear the discomfort caused by horizontal layout at the beginning and read hard.

Just read on. As long as you read on, you will definitely feel the beauty of it.

Li Xin believed firmly.

Of course, he also thought about what to do if the result is not like this. For example, the effect of horizontal typesetting was mediocre, and even attracted a lot of ridicule and abuse.

Li Xin's final answer is that it doesn't matter. He should continue to try hard until he succeeds. Because he is very convinced that advanced and good things will win the understanding and acceptance of others after they have undergone enough tests.

No, less than two days after this horizontally typeset paper was released, someone visited the palace of Chu.

"Who is it?" Li Xin asked Wang Gui casually.

Wang Gui replied: "It's Duke Xing."

Li Xin was stunned for a moment: Xing Guogong? Isn't that Fang Xuanling? Fangmou in the "Fang Mou Duan" that people talked about in later generations? Why is he here?
