The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 105 Touring River City

The travel business was settled smoothly.

Shi Wenxiu's matter was also settled smoothly.

Shi Zhongshan's matter was also settled smoothly.

In the remaining days, Zhou You also attended academic research meetings as scheduled.

Luzhou University does not need to speak on stage this year, so Professor Wang and Zhou You are very leisurely.

Since Zhou You is a university teacher, he still needs to listen carefully to the latest developments in the industry, as well as the latest development research. He didn't know much about it even after he left the industry after graduation.

Now I have a lot of insights after listening to the speeches of these industry experts at the meeting.

In many cases, it’s not that the individual is incompetent, but that the industry is inherently deficient and has a different positioning. It is a public welfare industry, not for profit, but mainly to serve the people and society.

Speaking more broadly, this is how we preserve the lifeblood of the country and the seeds of human civilization.

Many experts at the meeting mentioned the decline of paper data and the rise of electronic reading in the future.

But they always believed that paper reading would not disappear from the stage of history. Although later, with the rapid development of the Internet, paper books were about to withdraw from the stage of history, but in the end they survived tenaciously, and more and more people read in libraries around the world, borrowing books The number of people is also increasing.

As society becomes more and more impetuous, people want to give themselves a moment of tranquility, and this moment of tranquility requires getting rid of electronic devices. Reading books on paper is a refuge and a harbor of inner peace.

After the meeting and discussion, Zhou You wandered around this ancient city by himself.

Jiangcheng is known as the thoroughfare of nine provinces. It has been an important military town since ancient times and a battleground for military strategists.

It has many places of interest and delicacies, including the Yellow Crane Tower and Hot Dry Noodles.

The hotel receptionist also thoughtfully provided a travel brochure.

I don’t plan to hire a tour guide for this tour, so I can enjoy my free time alone.

The most popular place to visit when traveling is the Yellow Crane Tower.

The Yellow Crane Tower is located in Wuchang District, Jiangcheng City. It is located on the top of Snake Mountain and is close to the Yangtze River. It is a landmark building in Jiangcheng City.It was first built in the second year of Wu Huangwu in the Three Kingdoms (223 AD) and has been renovated many times in the past dynasties. The existing building was designed based on the "Tongzhi Building" in the Qing Dynasty and was rebuilt in 1985.It became famous all over the world because of the poem "Yellow Crane Tower" written by Cui Hao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty.

The former people have already taken the Yellow Crane, and the Yellow Crane Tower is empty here.

Huang He is gone forever, and Bai Yun is full of leisure.

Qingchuan calendar Hanyang tree, fragrant grass parrot island.

Where is the Rimu Township Pass?The Yanbo River makes people sad!
How many celebrities and elegant people are reciting poems and composing poems in this building.

How many dissatisfied literati use this to express their feelings?

The one who impressed me the most during his travels was Li Bai. He visited the Yellow Crane Tower three times but had nowhere to write. Li Bai, who had never been convinced of poetry all his life, had to admit: "There is a view in front of me but I can't understand it. Cui Hao wrote a poem on it."

When watching Li Bai's documentary and Li Bai's biography, Zhou You was thinking that human life is really unpredictable.

From the perspective of the entire Chinese national culture, Li Bai occupies a very important position. Many of his poems have been passed down to this day and are loved by people, and will continue to be passed down in the future.

But Li Bai's life was not happy. According to feudalism, he learned literary and martial arts, and his goods went to the emperor's family.

Li Bai believed that he was ambitious but had no way to serve the country. Even if he finally came into contact with the emperor, he was only used as a royal scholar and could not realize his ideal of governing the country and bringing peace to the country.

In the end, he resigned from his position in the palace angrily and wandered around. His life was full of ups and downs, and he was often homeless. He looked for help everywhere and could not make ends meet.

Although he had a high reputation at that time and everyone loved his works, he was personally unsatisfied and died in depression.Especially when he unintentionally participated in the turmoil, everyone wanted to kill him.

The same was true for his contemporary Du Fu.

Although it is said that suffering can stimulate a poet's creative talent, Zhou You thought that no one would be willing to endure these hardships.

Some people want to be prosperous and wealthy while alive, but also want to be famous for eternity after death.

Such people are rare in history.

It can be said that it is almost non-existent, because human energy is limited. If you put your energy into governing the country, eating, drinking and playing, you will have less time for other aspects.

Zhou You is very satisfied with his current living situation. He doesn't want to be famous for eternity, he just wants to live his life well.

We are already blessed by nature, how dare we ask for more.

It's a pity that Yellow Crane Tower is now highly commercialized, full of all kinds of petty bourgeoisie, and the business atmosphere is extremely strong.

And in modern life with many high-rise buildings, there are no advantages. The only thing that attracts travelers is the cultural heritage.

Today people do not see the ancient times and the moon, this month once looked like the ancients.

In this building, have a remote conversation with ancient sages and celebrities, and think about their magnificent or impoverished lives.

As Mingyue said back then, no matter you are an emperor, general or minister, a prince or a noble, or a hero or beauty, you will never escape the loess in the end.

Traveling around can only allow you to live in the present and cherish the present.

Zhou You has also eaten a lot of Jiangcheng’s food at the hotel recently.

However, Zhou You himself is not a gourmet foodie and does not have much desire for delicious food.

According to the original idea of ​​​​traveling, being so busy with work every day and spending a lot of time eating is a waste of time. It would be great to have that time to watch documentaries, read books, and exercise.

Therefore, his biggest wish in the past was to have science and technology highly developed, or to be able to practice immortality and immortality.

One small pill can satisfy all the needs of the body, preferably a whole day and a week without food.

Of course, for those who love food, you don’t have to eat this, it’s just one more choice.

As the meeting came to an end, Zhou You and Professor Wang went to Professor Shi's house and had a family dinner, which was too warm to refuse.

In the past, Professor Wang and Shi Zhongshan would get together occasionally, otherwise the two children would not have known each other. However, as they grew older, the time they spent together became less and less.

It can be seen from the dining table that Professor Shi's wife was also a beauty when she was young, otherwise she would not have had an appearance like Shi Wenxiu.

It's a pity that Zhou You doesn't have the slightest impression, which means that it turns out that Shi Wenxiu didn't actually make a name for himself or that Zhou You saw too little and didn't pay attention to the entertainment industry. It's possible.

In the past, everyone liked to bring some local specialties and special products wherever they traveled. After all, logistics was underdeveloped and it was not common to see them.

However, with the highly developed transportation, not only the products can be circulated all over the country, but even the commercial snacks across the country are gradually becoming similar.

Now when I travel around, I don’t bring any specialties. When it was still underdeveloped, I rarely brought anything with me when traveling. I bought them online in advance and sent them to my home. When I gave them to my colleagues, I said they were from tourist areas, and the printed ones were still local tourism. The name of the place.

According to Professor Shi, travel to September to sign up and build your student status file. Then you can go when you have time. If you don't have time, don't go.

This is also in line with travel expectations.
