People in the Republic of China start by building a top power

Chapter 554

Now his plan is to rush back to Jinling and start an important part of his plan.

In fact, Su Yun invited the Locke family to discuss cooperation, on the one hand, because he hoped to get their help to save himself more effort, and on the other hand, it was also for the face of the Gao family.

Now that the Locke family has made it clear, Su Yun doesn’t need to save face for them!

From the standpoint of interests, the two are opponents. Since the other party does not intend to reconcile, then Su Yun will not be a good person! .

Chapter 611: Confucianism

After leaving Gao’s house that day, Su Yun simply cleaned up and rushed back to Jinling the next day.

Nelson refused so bluntly, Su Yun really never thought of it.

However, it is not that he is unprepared, it is just that Huayin Group will have to bear all the pressure on its own, which may be a bit laborious.

In the few days that Su Yun was preparing to negotiate with the Locke family, the exchange conference between the Confucianism and Taoism on the West Lake was still going on.

This cultural exchange meeting involves thousands of years of Confucian and Taoist culture, and it is also an original trace of the traditional culture since the previous dynasty, so it will last for a long time, and it will not end in a day or two.

During this period, the content of exchanges between Confucianism and Taoism will also involve various aspects.

From the ideological principles of governing the country and the directors, to the ideological concept of Qi family self-cultivation, both Confucianism and Taoism will communicate and argue about this.

Since it involves governing the country and improving the family and self-cultivation, both parties have to mention the Neo-Confucianism developed from traditional Confucian culture.

Neo-Confucianism was formally formed in the Northern Song Dynasty and was applied in the Ming Dynasty. It was also called Taoism. It was the most important school of thought in the Ming Dynasty and had the most complete and refined theoretical ideological system at that time.

Later, after development, Neo-Confucianism experienced many twists and turns, and it was not until the previous dynasty that it gradually declined.

However, although this school of thought has declined, many of its ideas have been influencing future generations, such as the viewpoints of “preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires”, which are still believed by many people to this day.

However, the so-called Neo-Confucianism is not limited to the traditional school, but is divided into two schools, namely Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism and Lu-Wang Xinxue.

Cheng Zhu’s Neo-Confucianism focuses on the study of nature and morality.

Lu Wang’s Xinxue emphasizes that the original heart is the nature, and Wang Yangming even proposed that “the heart is the principle”. This school pursues to follow the original heart.

Psychology and Neo-Confucianism together constitute Song-Ming Neo-Confucianism in a broad sense.

In the Ming Dynasty, due to the special social background at that time, the concept of Neo-Confucianism was gradually distorted by some people.

In particular, some officials in the Ming Dynasty had insufficient salaries for daily life and communication, so they had to seek financial benefits through other means.

But everyone is a scholar, and in Neo-Confucianism there is a profound meaning of “preserving the principles of heaven and destroying human beings ~ 々 lust”.

This principle requires them to abide by morals and suppress their own selfish desires, but in order to survive, many people have to violate this code, but on the surface, everyone must maintain the appearance of integrity and integrity at all times for the sake of being a scholar.

So this happened among scholars, especially officials——

Everyone is full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, persuading younger generations to abide by morality and restrain their desires.

Although this approach is also forced, but after all, words and deeds are different.

As a result, there were a large number of “hypocrites” at that time, who ostensibly followed the profound meaning of Neo-Confucianism, obeyed the law in front of others, and had a high-sounding appearance.

But secretly, they operate for personal gain and seek financial benefits.

In the previous dynasty, as the traditional Han culture was suppressed and declined, this distorted Neo-Confucianism could not be corrected.

Up to now, many people no longer know what the original meaning of Neo-Confucianism is, and they only regard it as a cancer that imprisons their thoughts and is used by hypocrites to hide themselves.tools to cover.

But Neo-Confucianism initially emancipated the mind and persuaded people to abide by the positive aspects of morality, but few people understood and cared about it.

Therefore, in the past few days, Shao Wen and others have been on the West Lake with Taoists, and they have started a fierce battle over the advantages and disadvantages of Neo-Confucianism.

At the same time, discussions on Neo-Confucianism also caused uproar in the press and among the people.

Since it was the first to get the moon, the newspapers in Hangzhou were the first to report this part of the content. While reporting the grand occasion of the conference, many newspapers also made remarks to explain their views on Neo-Confucianism.

The newspapers that supported the science were the first to speak out.

“Neo-Confucianism is the essence of Confucianism after thousands of years of development and the development and extension of Zhu Zi and other sages, and it is the culmination of Confucianism.

It has a precise and rigorous logical theory, an exquisite and complete ideological system, and advocates that everyone abide by morality, be strict with oneself, and emancipate the mind.

During the Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, Neo-Confucianism flourished for hundreds of years and had a profound impact on Chinese culture. Even today, many of our thoughts still reveal the shadow of Neo-Confucianism.

This is a cultural treasure left to us by our ancestors, which should be inherited and carried forward. ”

And those newspapers that oppose Neo-Confucianism also launched a rebuttal.

“The profound meaning of Neo-Confucianism has been used since the beginning of its formation by the rulers of the past in order to confine the minds of the people.

Since the two Song Dynasties, Neo-Confucianism has required the people to preserve the principles of heaven, eliminate human desires, stick to outdated human ethics and morality, and imprison their thoughts, which is not conducive to the enlightenment of the people’s minds.

As for later generations, in the Ming Dynasty, the so-called Neo-Confucianism has become a fig leaf for countless hypocrites who, in the name of “morality and righteousness”, are themselves corrupt and bribery, deceived and deceived, and committed all kinds of evil.

The theory of Neo-Confucianism is nothing but the shackles that imprison the mind and should be discarded! ”

Arguments like this have been everywhere in the past three or two days.

There are many scholars gathered here in Hangzhou, and the debate is naturally the most intense.

Some of them support Neo-Confucianism, while others oppose Neo-Confucianism. These days, they have been looking for time to gather together to discuss whether Neo-Confucianism is correct or not. A group of literati argue, with a lot of meaning to roll up their sleeves and fight!

In fact, not only in Hangzhou, but after the rumors spread, newspapers and people from all over the Jiangnan and even all over the country launched a fierce debate on “”Normalism'”.

The arguing is simply divided into two factions.

One school believes that Neo-Confucianism is a treasure of traditional culture, the culmination of Confucianism from ancient times to the present, and a necessary philosophy for emancipating the mind and consolidating morality.

The other faction is against Neo-Confucianism, believing that Neo-Confucianism is a tool used by gentlemen to fool others, a cancer that imprisons the minds of the people, and should be resolutely resisted and abandoned.

(Get Li Zhao) But most of the latter people are not familiar with the true meaning of Neo-Confucianism.

They just use the distorted Neo-Confucianism in later generations as a reference, but they do not know the original intention of Neo-Confucianism.

In fact, at the beginning of its establishment, Neo-Confucianism was based on calling people to abide by morality and emancipate their minds.

It’s just that most people in later generations cannot understand the knowledge of the people, and many people distort the meaning of it for their own face, which leads to the rejection of the philosophy by many people today.

The comments from the press and the public spread very quickly, especially in Jinling City. This public opinion was like a raging storm, which soon spread to the whole city.

Jinling City is the cultural and economic center of the country. The city has a large population, and there is no shortage of many scholars.

After the turmoil from Hangzhou spread to Jinling, the movement caused by it will not be small.

And this news soon reached Wu Si’s ears.

Chapter 612: Correcting the Name of Science

In today’s Jinling City, discussions on Neo-Confucianism are spreading.

Due to the particularity of Jinling City, a large number of literati and scholars gathered here, and their opinions on Neo-Confucianism were mixed, which led to the debate on Neo-Confucianism in Jinling, which was even more intense than that in Hangzhou.

On the Huayin Group side, Wu Si has been paying attention to this scientific disturbance.

He was a disciple of Zhao Pu, and in essence, he was also a member of the literary world.

However, Wu Si was not present at the conference on Confucianism and Taoism.

Before Su Yun went to Hangzhou, he temporarily handed over the major affairs and small affairs of the group to him. Since this time, Wu Si has been busy dealing with the affairs of the group.

In terms of personal ability, Wu Si is now very good, but suddenly let him take care of the entire group, Wu Si is still a little powerless.

After all, Wu Si did not have enough experience before this.

Fortunately, when Su Yun was leaving, he had already arranged some things within the group, and what Wu Si had to do was only the overall planning of daily affairs.

But this also kept him busy every day, so he couldn’t get away to participate in this Confucianism and Taoism exchange meeting.

It was only in the first few days of the exchange meeting that Wu Si found a time to temporarily go to Hangzhou and met with Zhao Pu and others.

That night, Wu Si returned to the group and continued to handle affairs.

But now, the outside world is constantly arguing about Neo-Confucianism, and Wu Si, as a disciple of the literary world, naturally will not stand idly by.

Although he can’t go to the exchange meeting in person, Wu Si has been paying attention to the movement there.

And these days, he has also contacted his teacher Zhao Pu.

The two masters and apprentices discussed the advantages and disadvantages of Neo-Confucianism for a long time, and Wu Si and Zhao Pu, including Shao Wen, Li Jisheng, Cheng Li and others, agreed that among the current citizens, many people oppose Neo-Confucianism because they do not recognize it. Understand the fundamental meaning of science.

In short, these people were misled by the distorted “hypocrite Neo-Confucianism” after the mid-Ming Dynasty, and they believed that Neo-Confucianism was a cancer that imprisoned thoughts and harmed the country and the people..

But in fact, the orthodox Neo-Confucianism, that is, Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism popular in the Song Dynasty, advocates people to pursue morality and self-discipline, so as to achieve the purpose of emancipating the mind.

To this end, Wu Si listened to his teacher’s teaching, and after discussing with Su Yun and others, he decided to hold a press conference to rectify the name of orthodox Neo-Confucianism.

In the past few days, major newspapers in Jinling City have received news from Huayin Group.

Huayin Group Assistant Manager, Mr. Zhao Pu’s disciple Wu Siyao held a press conference in Huayin Plaza.

Its purpose is to correct people’s misunderstanding of Neo-Confucianism, to rectify the name of traditional Neo-Confucianism, and to bring this precious traditional culture back to the right track.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately attracted the attention of countless newspapers.

Recently, there have been endless debates on Neo-Confucianism, and many people, even the newspapers themselves, are a little overwhelmed.

Wu Si came out to speak at this time, which of course caused a sensation.

For a time, countless newspapers spread the news, and many media and people paid close attention to the follow-up and looked forward to the conference.

After the news was fully fermented, on this day, Wu Si finally brought a group of people to Huayin Plaza.

That morning, countless scholars, scholars, reporters from various newspapers, as well as some people from Jinling City and even the surrounding areas all came to the square early.

The press conference this time was very crowded and lively.

After all, the battle for the frontiers of science is still going on. This press conference is undoubtedly held at the cusp of the storm, and the crowd here is naturally huge.

Under everyone’s attention, Wu Si came to the front of the square in a vehicle.

Countless reporters around met, and they picked up cameras to take pictures frantically, and many reporters rushed forward, wanting to interview Wu Si in advance.

However, these people were separated by security personnel followed by Huayin Group.

Next, security personnel began to maintain order at the scene.

After the scene settled down, the press conference officially began.
