Ten thousand yuan mobile phone and watch! What signals did this Huawei conference without Mate 60 convey?

"Go straight ahead, crazy world. Facing the pain, I gave all my dreams to time … through the night and across the border. "

On the afternoon of September 25th, in Shenzhen, the autumn conference of Huawei started with artists from China Symphony Orchestra and Youth Philharmonic Orchestra of China Conservatory of Music singing "My Dream". Today, Huawei, as the song goes, "crossed the night and crossed the border".

Yu Chengdong, managing director of Huawei, CEO of BG, and chairman of BU, a smart car solution, later took the stage. He said that he was grateful for everyone’s interest in the "Pioneer Plan" Mate 60 series, and was currently organizing overtime production to meet everyone’s needs. However, he also stressed that the "Pioneer Plan" products will not be released at this conference.

Earlier, Huawei launched a new generation of HarmonyOS OS 4. Yu Chengdong revealed at the press conference that up to now, Huawei HarmonyOS 4 has developed 60 million users, with an average of 1.2 million users per day.

Huawei’s autumn conference focused on the release of a new generation of near-field wireless connection technology Nearlink (Star Flash); Launched the luxury brand "Extraordinary Master", and launched the first gold high-end smart watch HUAWEI WATCH ULTIMATE DESIGN and Huawei Mate 60 RS under this brand.

In addition, Huawei also revealed that the M9 will be launched in December this year, and the S7 will be launched in November.

Ultra-high-end brand release, watch pricing exceeds 20 thousand yuan

Although Huawei’s hottest product, Huawei Mate 60 series, was absent from the conference, the conference was still "full of gimmicks". The appearance of 10,000-yuan watch and Andy Lau made Huawei like to mention several hot searches again.

Huawei launched a brand-new ultra-high-end brand "ULTIMATE DESIGN Extraordinary Master", and also released the brand’s first smart watch-Huawei WATCH ULTIMATE DESIGN Extraordinary Master.

Huawei also invited Andy Lau to be the spokesperson of "Extraordinary Brand". At present, in addition to the first gold high-end smart watch, Mate 60 series Porsche version Mate 60 RS is also classified as "extraordinary master" series.

Huawei emphasizes the combination of materials and technology for extraordinary master watches, which is roughly the same as Apple’s Apple Watch Ultra series that emphasizes outdoor extreme sports.

Huawei also said that this watch can accompany explorers across mountains and seas. It not only supports 10 ATM waterproof rating and 100-meter diving, but also has various diving modes such as free diving, leisure scuba diving and technical diving. In the outdoor adventure mode, you can rely on the dual-frequency GPS positioning ability to support the two-way Beidou satellite message function. Of course, Huawei finally priced the first high-point watch at 21,999 yuan, which is also in line with its "ultra-high-end" positioning.

Huawei Mate 60 RS has no more details. However, information about Mate 60 RS has been posted on Huawei official website, and the configuration is exactly the same as that of Mate 60 Pro+, but the materials are different. For example, Huawei Mate 60 RS uses basalt toughened Kunlun glass, while Mate 60 Pro uses the second generation Kunlun glass. Available in 16GB+512GB and 16GB+1TB versions, the prices are 11999 yuan and 12999 yuan respectively, and the colors are black and red, and the pre-order has been started from now on.

The price is basically at the same level as the previous Huawei Porsche version, but the release of Huawei’s ultra-high-end brand is obviously not to show muscles. At present, Mate 60 series is hard to find, and institutions are optimistic about the sales of Mate series, which also puts great pressure on Apple’s new machine. The launch of ultra-high-end has also leveled the current price gap of Huawei Apple.

Star flash technology and large screen Pad

At the press conference, Huawei launched a new generation of short-range wireless connection technology -NearLink (Star Flash), which has lower power consumption, stronger speed and stability, and wider coverage, and can be applied to smart terminals, smart homes, smart cars and other major scenes.

Huawei released the world’s first flexible OLED flat panel, and HUAWEI M-Pencil (the third generation) appeared together with Huawei’s flagship flat panel. Huawei’s third-generation stylus and Huawei MatePad Pro 13.2-inch are the world’s first terminal products with star flash technology. The star flash pen supports over 10,000-level pressure sensitivity, and the connection is faster and more stable, with the minimum delay of 0ms, which can reach the professional graphics tablet-level painting experience.

In addition, Huawei’s headset FreeBuds Pro 3 also applies the core technology of star flash connection and Bluetooth technology, which improves the physical bandwidth by 4 times and the anti-interference ability by 2 times. Based on the new L2HC 3.0 protocol, when Huawei FreeBuds Pro 3 cooperates with Huawei Mate60 series and other mobile phones, it can realize 1.5Mbps audio lossless transmission.

At the end of the year, two new cars were launched: the first coupe intelligent S7 and the large SUV M9.

Yu Chengdong once again emphasized that Huawei’s intelligent cockpit and advanced intelligent driving technology are "far ahead" when introducing automobiles at the press conference.

He is even more excited to introduce the latest release of the M7 sales. "We have an average of 1,500 sets every day and 2,000-3,000 sets on weekends. In less than two weeks, the number of sets has exceeded 20,000." This also made Huawei’s smart car selection business usher in a long-lost turnaround.

The first car of Huawei’s smart car selection business, Zhijie S7, was also officially unveiled, positioning the smart coupe with high energy and large space. It will be the first to take the HarmonyOS 4 smart cockpit and carry Huawei’s advanced intelligent driving. The new car will be officially released in November 2023.

In addition, the SUV M9 will be released in December this year. Yu Chengdong once again stressed that the M9 will be "the best SUV within 10 million". It is reported that M9 not only has brand-new family design, full-size changeable space comparable to MPV level, but also will be equipped with Huawei smart car full-stack technology solutions and other technologies.

It is worth noting that this is also the first time that Yu Chengdong appeared as the chairman of Car BU. After shouting the slogan of the best SUV within 10 million yuan, he still needs the market to test the achievements of the smart car selection business.

HarmonyOS’s native applications are fully launched.

Not only is the product level updated and upgraded, but Huawei’s HarmonyOS ecology is also fully laid out.

Yu Chengdong revealed that after the release of HarmonyOS 4, the number of users upgrading HarmonyOS 4 has exceeded 60 million in just over one month, making it the fastest upgrade version of HarmonyOS in history.

At this conference, Huawei launched a brand-new HarmonyOS NEXT program in HarmonyOS, that is, HarmonyOS native application was fully launched, which is a new chapter in the mobile application ecology.

It is reported that Huawei has trained millions of talents in HarmonyOS, and will invest 10 billion yuan to support the development of its partners, covering 18 applications in an all-round way, bringing consumers a smoother, smarter and safer native application experience in HarmonyOS.

In addition, Huawei’s flagship store will soon be unveiled in more cities. It is reported that four brand-new Huawei flagship stores in Tianjin, Beijing, Shanghai and Nanjing are already in preparation and will soon open, which will bring a brand-new upgraded full-scene experience and services with the characteristics of Huawei flagship stores.

Master: Xu Haofeng’s confidence and unique martial arts movies

    Special feature of 1905 film network After that, Xu Haofeng was spread more and more. The media is eager for legend, and peers are looking forward to performance. In addition to the common names such as writer, director and martial arts instructor, rumors have claimed that this college teacher has become the head of a certain sect. However, just as he and the famous "academic" directors in recent years can’t be easily classified into the ranks of China directors divided by generations, Xu Haofeng and his films can’t simply be classified as traditional martial arts films. This made Xu Haofeng embark on a completely different road from the previous martial arts movies since he made his debut in 2012. And to this part, not only is the master passing by, but you can almost see the entrance of the school.

 

    Record companies always advertise newcomers with the banner that "no one has ever sung like him". This sentence can also be used in Xu Haofeng’s name: no one has ever made a martial arts movie like him. It is precisely his strength and fortune to break the wind direction led by Hong Kong for a long time. Nowadays, the brand of the new school of martial arts can definitely afford to make movies by taking moves from oral instruction.

 

    The film has been in China for 110 years, and the martial arts film has a history of 87 years. Since the first martial arts film, most chivalrous swordsmen wear Peking Opera bunt and follow the routine of Wusheng peking opera blues. What did the ancients wear? It was not until two great directors, Li Hanxiang and Hu Jinquan, that the film circle became addicted to textual research, and gradually took off their costumes and embarked on the road of life. However, the improvement of martial arts drama is not so easy, and Hong Kong people carry forward the title of "martial arts director" to shoot action scenes instead of directors.

 

    Although there is no martial arts in the Hong Kong martial arts circle, Liu Jialiang, the famous director, is a direct descendant of Hongquan. However, the mainstream still belongs to Cheng Xiaodong and Yuan Heping, who have a background in Peking Opera, and Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung, members of the "Seven Little Happiness" from the troupe. These martial arts refers to the "monopoly" of Hong Kong martial arts films, which makes the action scenes more and more dazzling, in order to highly purify the word entertainment. It made the martial arts films develop into the 90′ s full of gods and buddhas. The action styles they created also spread from Hong Kong to Greater China and even Hollywood. After the new millennium, Zhang Yimou is still the remnant of Xiangjiang River, which is a trick and a half, and all of them eat the old money accumulated over the years. This year, Chen Kaige remake a novel from Xu Haofeng, and the martial arts instructor still invited Ku Huen Chiu from Yuan Jiaban, playing the same trick as Stephen Chow 10 years ago. Therefore, the appearance of Xu Haofeng and his films is just to get rid of the action design of Hong Kong martial arts films and return kung fu to Wulin. This year’s Golden Horse Best Action Design Award of Master is absolutely justified.

 

    In Master, Liao Fan, the hero, played Wing Chun. In the Republic of China, Tianjin was mixed with foreign countries, and the kinds of boxing flourished; Wing Chun is just a small boxing in the north, and there are a lot of local sects in Tianjin in the story. Xu Haofeng is a practitioner. Although he has never played Wing Chun, his cooperation with Wong Kar-wai has made him know many Wing Chun masters. The rest of the boxing and even the sword and halberd have the director’s own textual research results for many years. With this foundation, "Master" can be described as full of confidence. In addition to fists and fists, weapons are another highlight in Master. In the street fighting at the end of the film, Liao Fan held an eight-blade wing chun weapon, and all the tricks and styles he made were also verified by Xu Haofeng from the previous generation. Xu Haofeng didn’t design any fancy and unpractical lens, but Liao Fan’s intention in the movie was to preach the knife method, which sounded like what Xu Haofeng himself wanted to say to you: I showed all my moves, and how much I took depends on the individual.

 

    The implication of dialogue is another feature of Xu Haofeng. With his participation, the script of "A Generation of Masters" was once eloquent. The words in "Master" are divided into three parts, which is the same as the rhythm of the film, and it is also integrated with the style of Xu Haofeng’s novels. The film relies on the original work, so it is extremely literary. In the first half of the film, Master Chen Shi, played by Liao Fan, got acquainted with Tianjin Wuxingtou brand, and Zheng Shanao, played by Jin Shijie, was intended to make a name for himself. Although Zheng Shanao fully assisted, he also intended to use Chen Zhifeng to retire. After the relationship between this group of characters is abstract, it is the template of the so-called borrowing people to ascend to heaven and becomes a skeleton in the literary sense. Filled with flesh and blood, it is only in the moments when the director is most ruthless that the wound is torn open, so that you can see what the bones and muscles that support the flesh look like. From this perspective, the martial arts action scene is only the first layer of the film, and it is also the most eye-catching commercial element; The helpless sigh for the lost years is the second obvious layer, while the core refers to the interaction between people in any society. The inherent richness and ambiguity of the film also makes Master surpass the previous martial arts films and appear more authentically.

 

    In addition to the literary significance of Master, Xu Haofeng still wants to make sense out of things, saying "rules", the two most beautiful words in the film. In Zheng Shanao’s mouth, the rules were established by ancestors and handed down by the people; In the eyes of curator Zou, played by Jiang Wenli, rules are just the game of those in power. The confrontation between these two logics is precisely the confrontation between the old and the new in this era of the Republic of China. Fame in World War I is only the plot in the story. From the first movie, Xu Haofeng tried to put the truth he believed in into the characters. However, this only created a thousand people’s side in The Trail of the Enemy. It was not until this "Master" that martial arts became successful, with the times as the skin and the characters as the bones.

 

    Therefore, Master, as a martial arts film, is unique in two aspects, one is the innovation of action design, and the other is the significance of martial arts film as a genre film. These two layers coexist and grow together, and they are both inside and outside each other. In the film reviews he once wrote, Xu Haofeng himself wrote that the fear of certain things supports a genre film, while the martial arts film should be the fear of modern guns. Xu Haofeng abandoned Weiya and body double and told such a story in the Republic of China, which was precisely the practice of his own theory.

 

    In the film, Liao Fan uploads his fist to the north alone, comes from nowhere, and leaves with an unknown surname, leaving only the street legends of his disciples who fought in eight martial arts schools in Tianjin. In reality, Xu Haofeng’s "Master" is actually a real northern fist going south, and the ability to settle down has been revealed, which won the Golden Horse Award. However, for Xu Haofeng, it is still famous and has not yet been established. To be a great master, it is necessary to shine a light on future generations. Therefore, people can’t help but expect that Xu Haofeng’s skill will eventually be learned by what kind of latecomers.

Experts "sit in the clinic" and legal clinics have become "hot cakes"

All-media reporter of rule of law daily Jiang Dongliang Liang Pingni

  "The boss defaulted on my salary and didn’t ask for it many times. What can I do?" Not long ago, Wang, a villager in Zhangzhuang Town, Yucheng City, Shandong Province, came to the "Law to Help" legal clinic in Zhangzhuang Judicial Office for consultation. Lawyer Hongfeng, who was "sitting in the clinic" that day, fully understood the situation and helped Wang clarify the legal relationship and immediately wrote a civil complaint for him. Knowing that Wang’s family was in financial difficulties and met the conditions for applying for legal aid, the staff of the judicial office immediately assisted him in applying for legal aid.

  In May, 2022, in order to solve the problem of "urgent difficulties and anxiety" in people’s production and life, Zhangzhuang Judicial Office established the "Law to Help" legal clinic, which adopted a new legal service model integrating legal consultation, legal aid, popularization of law, physical examination under the rule of law, litigation agency and conflict resolution, and set up a "general legal clinic" and a "legal expert clinic", which was run by judicial staff. The "legal expert clinic" is attended by specially invited lawyers and legal service workers every Friday, so that people can enjoy convenient, fast and efficient legal "diagnosis and treatment" at their doorsteps.

  In Zhangzhuang Town, the solemn promise of "If you have something to talk about, come and help with your true heart rhythm" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. "In the past, when ordinary people encountered legal problems, they didn’t know what to do and who to look for. Now, when they go to the town to catch a gathering, they can go to the judicial office to sit and talk. Consultation costs nothing, and disputes are returned to mediation. There is no need to worry about legal problems anymore!" Wang said.

  In recent years, Yucheng City, with the construction of "Fengqiao Judicial Office" in the new era as the carrier, has continuously strengthened the empowerment of the rule of law. Through the establishment of the "one institute, one product" project, various legal service resources such as legal aid, notarization, judicial expertise and lawyers have sunk to the forefront, and the grassroots foundation of judicial administration has been continuously consolidated, creating a frontier position to boost grassroots rule of law construction.

  "The’ Law to Help’ legal clinic opened by Zhangzhuang Judicial Office is one of the key projects of’ One Institute, One Product’." Han Peijun, Party Secretary and Director of the Judicial Bureau of Yucheng City, told the reporter that since the establishment of the "One Institute, One Product" project, Yucheng City has made great efforts to guide and urge the judicial offices in its jurisdiction to reform, innovate and boldly explore, and dig deep into innovative practices in people’s mediation, public legal services, and rule of law town street construction, and form a bright brand to practice and promote. At present, some projects in Juzhen, such as "Diversified Solution of Xiaolong Mediation Room", Xindian’s "Five Governance and Co-construction", Anren’s "Lao Zhao Mediation" and Lunzhen’s "Legal Service Workstation for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises", have also achieved initial results, forming a number of judicial brands of "no one has me, people have me new, and people are new and excellent".

  "In recent years, with the deepening of the construction of the’ Fengqiao Judicial Office’, the Zhenjie Judicial Office has not only been limited to the traditional judicial administrative functions such as mediation of disputes and popularization of law, but the public legal service force has been tilted to the grassroots level, and the legal construction functions such as the judicial director attending party and government meetings and legality review have gradually expanded to the judicial office, and the supporting office space, personnel and funds have all been implemented." Han Peijun said that the establishment of the brand project has further extended the service tentacles of the judicial office and become a full-time, all-round and full-coverage rule of law platform for serving the grassroots, promoting grassroots governance according to law and building the rule of law in towns and streets.

  Since 2022, Yucheng City has built 17 distinctive and remarkable brands of judicial offices, covering dispute mediation, enterprise-related legal services, and the construction of the rule of law in towns and streets. The judicial offices have resolved 2,213 contradictions and disputes, answered 212 legal consultations, assisted in handling 4 legal aid cases, issued more than 20 legal opinions, and carried out more than 100 publicity and education activities on the rule of law. The judicial directors and legal advisers in towns and streets attended 125 party and government meetings. At present, 9 of the 11 town and street judicial offices in Yucheng City have been named as "Fengqiao-style judicial offices" in Dezhou New Era.

Break dancing has become an official Olympic event, and the formation of the national team has begun to select talents.

       CCTV News:Together with skateboarding, rock climbing and surfing, break dancing has become an official event of the Olympic Games. A few days ago, when IOC President thomas bach announced this decision, it really caused quite a stir. When it comes to break dancing, friends over 40 must have special feelings. In the 1970s and 1980s, break dancing became popular in China. No matter the streets and alleys, as long as the dynamic music rang, there were young people with explosive heads, bell bottoms and open-fingered leather gloves, while stepping on the spacewalk, cleaning the glass with their bare hands and dancing with each other, showing their youthful vitality. In many variety shows at present, break dancing is even more cool, and the limelight is the same.

       [After all] What kind of dance is "Olympic" break dance?

       Break dancing, English name Breaking, is sometimes translated as "floor dancing" because of its classic movements on the ground. From leading the trend of street culture to becoming an official Olympic event, what kind of dance is break dancing?

one

       Hold the ground with one hand, exert your strength instantly, and your body will fly and spin rapidly. The young man who danced like a tornado and looked wild and free was 20-year-old Shang Xiaoyu. As the only break dancer in China, he played in the 2018 Youth Olympic Games, competing with the world’s top players, and finally broke into the top eight.

one

       Break dancing originated from American hip-hop culture in the 1960s and 1970s, and it is a kind of generalized hip-hop. Its symbolic action is that dancers support their bodies with their hands and heads to do rapid rotation and tumbling on the ground, which has the elements of sports competition since its birth, and street cheers are the basis for judging the success or failure of fighting dancing. In 1987, the American film "Break Dance" was released in China, and it was all the rage to take a "spacewalk" with a tape recorder on your shoulder or "clean the glass" in the air. However, these movements are not break dancing.

       Su Jie, Secretary-General of China Sports Dance Federation: "The break dance in the movie is the predecessor of breaking now."

       According to experts, the most obvious feature of break dancing is that athletes are no longer satisfied with expressing music with their bodies, but pursue to explore the limits of the human body in rhythm, and Thomas and handstand rotation have become symbolic movements.

       [Question in the end] There are various forms of street dance. Why can break dance "enter the Olympics"?

       As a competition, break dancing made its debut at the Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires in 2018, which also played an important role in promoting its official entry into the Olympics. There are many forms of street dance, so why can break dance "enter the Olympics"?

       Su Jie, Secretary-General of China Sports Dance Federation, said: "One of the strong characteristics of break dancing is that it is very competitive. The form of competition generally appears in the form of fighting dance, that is, one-on-one PK, and the criteria for judging are relatively clear, so it can be the official event of the Olympic Games first."

       In China, break dancing has also become the only dance in the street dance competition of the 2nd Youth Games held in 2019, and China break dancing has officially entered the preparation stage for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

       Experts believe that dance presentation, music understanding, dance culture interpretation and innovation may be the scoring points of break dancing after entering the Olympics.

       How to form a national break dance team?

       The reporter learned from the China Sports Dance Federation that the formation of the national break dance team for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games has started, and talent selection has begun. At the same time, the preparation and selection plan has also entered the revision stage and is expected to be announced to the public in the first half of 2021. How to form the national team of break dancing? In particular, everyone is very concerned about whether those stars who are good at break dancing will also have the opportunity to enter the national team.

       Su Jie, secretary-general of China Sports Dance Federation, said: "We will decide who can be selected into our large talent pool by comprehensive standards, not whether he is an performing star or a person engaged in a certain profession. We are based on sports performance."

       According to reports, it takes two steps to form a national team of break dancing. First, a talent pool is established by extensively selecting talents in the whole society, and then the national team candidates are finally determined through a competitive selection mechanism.

       Su Jie, Secretary General of China Sports Dance Federation: "Now the selection method has entered the revision stage, and then it will be reported to the relevant departments for review, and finally we will announce it to the whole society. The announcement time is probably before the first half of next year. "

       [After all] Is everyone suitable for break dancing?

       The door of the national break dance team is open to the whole society. Are you also moved? It is estimated that many parents will be busy letting their children practice again. Is it suitable for everyone to break dance? What should we pay attention to when engaging in this sport?

       In the face of zero-based reporters, Shang Xiaoyu only selected a few simple warm-up professors, but the reporters still found it difficult to control.

       Wang Hong, a professor at Beijing Sport University and a member of the "Source News" expert database of the China Association for Science and Technology, said: "Many movements really violate some concepts of traditional sports training, and the risk of injury is great. Some movements of flexibility and explosive force may be harmful to a child who does not grow well, to the development of his bones or to his ligaments, for example, to the lumbar spine. If children and young people want to do this kind of action, you must first practice basic physical fitness and special physical fitness before you can rise to the level of technical training. "

       Shang Xiaoyu, the only player of the China team in the break dance event of the 2018 Youth Olympic Games, said: "Don’t always focus on these rotations and difficult movements. In fact, breaking is more interesting in its dance."

       [After all] Although break dancing is cool, can everyone try it?

       Finally, I would like to remind you that although break dancing is cool, its difficult movements such as tumbling, handstand, head turning and Thomas require very high strength, flexibility and coordination. Don’t try rashly if you don’t have a certain physical quality. Especially parents and friends, all want to build a handsome baby, but break dancing is fierce and difficult, and it is not suitable for children who are too young to learn, so as not to get hurt.

  At the age of 6, he went to Jinan and went to his uncle Ji Sicheng. Go to a private school to study. After 7 years old, I studied in Xinyu Primary School attached to Shandong First Normal School. At the age of 10, I began to learn English. At the age of 12, he was admitted to Zhengyi Middle School and transferred to the high school attached to Shandong University six months later. I began to learn German in high school and became interested in foreign literature. At the age of 18, he transferred to the provincial Jinan High School. The Chinese teacher is Dong Qiufang, who is also a translator. "The reason why I have been dancing and writing for 50 or 60 years, and I still can’t put down my pen until now, is all thanks to Teacher Dong, which I will never forget."


  In 1930, he was admitted to the Department of Western Literature in Tsinghua University, majoring in German. He studied the comparison of eastern and western poems, English and Sanskrit under Wu Mi and Ye Gongchao, and took elective courses such as Professor Chen Yinque’s Buddhist scripture translation literature, Zhu Guangqian’s literary psychology, Yu Pingbo’s Tang and Song poems and Zhu Ziqing’s Tao Yuanming’s poems. Make friends with classmates Wu Zuxiang, Lin Geng and Li Changzhi, and they are called "Four Musketeers". Among the students is Hu Qiaomu. I like "pure poetry", such as Vereland and Malarme. Verhaeren, parallel prose of the Six Dynasties, works by Li Yishan and Jiang Baishi. He has translated the works of Dreiser and Turgenev. During my college years, I won a scholarship awarded by my hometown Qingping county government with excellent grades.


  In September, 1935, according to the agreement on postgraduate exchange between Tsinghua University College of Literature and Germany, Tsinghua enrolled postgraduate students in Germany for three years. Ji Xianlin was admitted and went to Germany immediately. Traveling with Qiao Guanhua in Berlin and the United States. In October, I arrived in G? ttingen to meet Zhang Yong, Tian Dewang, etc. Entering the University of G? ttingen, "I dream that I am in G? ttingen, … I can read some books and some words that have been glorious in ancient times and this glory will never be extinguished." "I don’t know if I can catch this dream. "("Ten Years in Germany ")


  In the spring of 1936, Ji Xianlin chose Sanskrit. He believes that "Indian culture has been greatly influenced by Indian culture, so I will thoroughly study the cultural relationship between China and China, and maybe I can find something". Therefore, "you can’t read Sanskrit." "The road I have to take all my life has finally been found. I have walked along this road for more than half a century until now, and I will go on." (Eleven Years in Germany) "Fate allowed me to strengthen my faith." Ji Xianlin majored in Indian studies and studied Sanskrit and Pali at the Sanskrit Institute of University of G? ttingen.

"This is the golden age of my academic life, and I haven’t seen it since." Postdoctoral years, it is the eve of the collapse of fascism, Germany is short of material, and Ji Xianlin, a foreigner, is inevitably struggling in the "hunger hell", suffering from the war disaster like the German people. As an overseas traveler, I have a deep affection for my hometown, especially feeling that "when there is poverty in the corner of the world, there is only endless lovesickness", and the thoughts of my motherland and my family are lingering day and night.

Mr. Ji Xianlin’s character was admired, not only because of his knowledge, but also because of his character. He said: Even in the most difficult times, he did not lose his conscience. His book is not only a portrayal of the old gentleman’s personal life, but also a reflection of the course of intellectuals in China in the past century. Ji Xianlin’s "Miscellaneous Notes on His Sick Bed" has been released recently. In the book, Mr. Ji Xianlin used insightful words to clarify for the first time what he thought of the three laurels "Master of Chinese Studies", "Academic Leader" and "National Treasure" that had been "added" to his head by the outside world in recent years. He said: "I was freed from the three laurels. The foam on my body was washed away, revealing my true face and everyone was happy. "


  This newspaper specially extracts several paragraphs from Ji Lao’s words to see how the 97-year-old man treats the brilliant aura that covers his head-


  ■ The word "Master of Chinese Studies"


  "Look around, my friend China is better than his own, and there are many people. Under such circumstances, I have monopolized the title of’ Master of Chinese Studies’, and I am not old! "


  Now, in some more formal documents, there is also a brilliant aura of "master of Chinese studies" above my head. This is not out of thin air, which has a historical origin.


  About ten or twenty years ago, China’s reform and opening up achieved great results and its economy developed rapidly. Cultural construction has also become active accordingly. Once, a meeting was held in the Peking University lecture hall, which has not been rebuilt, to talk about Chinese studies to the students. At that time, there were five professors sitting on the rostrum, and everyone gave a talk. I was ranked first, and now I have forgotten what I said. A senior reporter, an alumnus of Peking University, wrote a long article in the newspaper "The upsurge of Chinese studies quietly rises in Yanyuan". Since then, four of the professors, including me, have been called "masters of Chinese studies". All three of them have a much stronger foundation in Chinese studies than I do. I don’t know what they think of this laurel. I was crowned this laurel myself, but I got goose bumps all over.


  Speaking of the basics of Chinese studies, I have been studying classics, ancient prose and poetry since primary school. I have dabbled in some important classic works. But I have never worked hard on any classic or writer, because I never wanted to be a sinologist. Later, he devoted himself to other academics and was immersed in them. Besides being able to recite hundreds of poems and dozens of ancient prose; Apart from being able to talk about some issues related to Chinese studies, such as the unity of man and nature, at the largest macro level, my knowledge of Chinese studies has not increased. Looking around, there are many friends who learn the basics of China better than themselves. Under such circumstances, I actually monopolize the title of "Master of Chinese Studies", so I’m not ashamed of my old age (to borrow the words of Peking Opera actresses)! I am not even a "master of Chinese studies", let alone a "master"!


  To this end, I am here to tell the world: please take the crown of "master of Chinese studies" from my head.


  ■ Two words "academic masters"


  "Such a person, gusher all over the world is also. However, now it happened that I was "beaten" into a master. Where do I start with this master? "


  This should be divided into two levels: one is education and the other is humanities and social sciences.


  First of all, we must figure out what "master" means. Thai, Taishan also; Fighter, Beidou also. Both are considered supreme things.


  Just talk about education. I have been a teacher all my life, climbing grids. Teaching abroad for 10 years and at home for 57 years. People often say: "No credit, but also hard work." Especially in the past few decades, the general purpose of exercising every day and doing new things is to make you restless and nervous all the time. Under such circumstances, I have been working as an administrator, so it’s hard to make any achievements! Where do I start as a "master"?


  It is not true that I have made great achievements in the research of humanities and social sciences. It is not true to say that I have no grades at all. Such people, talkative people are all over the world. However, now it happened that I was "beaten" into a master. Where do I start as a master?


  To this end, I am here to tell the world: please take the crown of "academic (technical) master" from my head.


  ■ Three words "national treasure"


  "Is it because China has only one Ji Xianlin, so he becomes a" treasure "? However, China’s Zhao Yiqian, Sun San and Li Si, and so on, all have only one. Can China have 1.3 billion’ national treasures’? "


  In China, when it comes to "national treasure", people will immediately think of the cuddly giant panda that everyone loves. The number of this kind of animal is very small, and it is only found in China. It is called a "national treasure" and it is well deserved. However, about 80 or 90 years ago, at a meeting, a leader in Beijing suddenly called me a "national treasure", and I was extremely amazed. Today, wherever I go, the voice of "national treasure" is resounding. I’m really puzzled. Of course, the crown of "national treasure" is not monopolized by me alone. Several other famous painters and calligraphers also have this title.


  I want to explore the origin of the name. Is it because there is only one Ji Xianlin in China that he becomes a "treasure"? However, China’s Zhao Yiqian, Sun San Li Si and so on, all have only one. Can China have 1.3 billion "national treasures"?


  This kind of thing, wishful thinking is useless and completely unnecessary. I came to a screeching halt.


  To this end, I am here to tell the world: please take the crown of "national treasure" from my head.


  I won three laurels and gave me a freedom. The foam on my body was washed away, revealing my true colors, and everyone was happy.
