Chapter 79: The Meeting of Tiger Hill
Chapter 79 �
Luo Qinshun wanted to see Zhou Mengchen as a person, and also wanted to see Zhou Mengchen's true attainments in Qi. After all, some things cannot be seen when correspondence is heard. They can also be faked.
"Former Minister of Justice Gu Yingxiang, Lord Gu arrived. Former Minister of War Nie Bao, Lord Nie, Mr. Gan Quan arrived." The sound of singing titles came here. It was their turn. After all, these characters were the finale of this time.
The three of them stopped greetings, Han Bangqi was in front, Luo Qinshun was in the middle, and Zhou Mengchen was the last one. The three of them arrived at the venue. Then there was a sound of a bell ringing. However, it came from the Huqiu Tower in the distance. The sound was leisurely, suppressing all the noise.
Everyone knows that the lecture has begun.
Zhou Mengchen walked up to the high platform. Looking at the figures of dozens of people on the platform, most of them were snow-white hair. Only Zhou Mengchen had black hair and felt a sense of disharmony. Suddenly, he saw He Xinyin in the corner. Although He Xinyin was older than Zhou Mengchen, he was not as good as white hair.
At this moment, Zhou Mengchen felt a little sympathetic.
The platform is not high and not big.
It is relatively more important to call it a high platform. After all, students still have to ask questions afterwards. The people above cannot be too far from the audience so that the people below cannot hear it. And in the closest to the high platform, there are several long tables lined up. There are countless writers, or copyists, who are responsible for copying all the things mentioned above, and after adding, deleting and polishing, they are ready to be compiled and published.
Zhou Mengchen arrived on the high platform and greeted these scholars. At this time, everyone was very caring and polite. Finally, he gave up. According to the original plan, Zhou Mengchen was the main speaker today.
Zhou Mengchen arrived at the lecturer's seat and sat down. He said, "Today I am here, I am a junior. You are kind to me, please show off my skills. I just want to throw a brick and a jade pendant. I would like to ask you all to give me some advice."
Sit and discuss the truth is the tradition of this era.
Zhou Mengchen wants to talk one day. If he stands one day, Zhou Mengchen may be able to do it at a young age. But others do not have the ability.
Zhou Mengchen was very prepared for this lecture. He took Zhang Zai's theory as the introduction, used Taixu, that is, Qi as the beginning, and then extended the theory of Qi first. The theory of reason in Qi, and then explained the theory of the Big Bang and the cognitive system of Confucianism to determine the foundation of the entire Qi, that is, the view of the universe.
In fact, in modern terms, it is material first.
Then start with the movement of celestial bodies in the solar system, which leads to the scientific methodology, which is how to solve practical problems such as experiments, hypotheses, and introduction of mathematical systems. And give examples.
In fact, many people don’t understand this.
Because Zhou Mengchen did not understand the following mathematical foundation. Now even if he understands it, Zhou Mengchen could not explain a series of problems such as the theory of celestial body movement, the three laws of planets, the three laws of Newton, and some other astronomical knowledge, as well as experimental methods, how to introduce mathematical analysis, and so on.
This is not a day's course.
Zhou Mengchen had to omit the complicated things, add more specific and interesting things, and attract the students below. After all, there are thousands of students in Huqiu Mountain today, and outside the venue, there are more than 10,000 people, and some of them are not qualified to enter. After all, the venue with thousands of people is already difficult to handle. Especially now, the Japanese pirates are not sent, and it will be difficult to deal with if they really put a few assassins in. Therefore, these thousands of students have verified their identities. The outside may not be problematic. They are not qualified.
Therefore, every word Zhou Mengchen can be spread to the ears of more than 100,000 people within one or two days, and the booklets that will be collected and published will probably spread throughout the world within a few years. I dare not say that every scholar must read it, but most scholars have read it.
This is why Zhou Mengchen was worried and even used public service to create this Tiger Hill Conference.
Therefore, Zhou Mengchen can regard this lecture as a popular science as soon as possible so that more people can know the charm of science. Because Zhou Mengchen deeply believes in one thing, that is, science itself is very charming and very promising. It can be seen from the academic heritage.
In the Ming Dynasty, no matter how powerful a great scholar was, it would not work to pass it on to his disciples. Although this is not a filial son and cannot inherit the essence, it has to make people think of one thing, that is, it is not that the academic background is limited and cannot withstand generations of specialized research. Just like when Wang Yangming was there, he could still bridge the conflict between Wang Qian. However, Wang Yangming was gone, all the brotherly relationship between Wang Qian was left, and he would not interact with each other. It is not that Wang Qian had a long-cherished wish, but that there was a conflict within Wang Xuexi that could not be bridged. The two of them held one end and refused to give in to each other, and there was no way to give in to each other in this matter.
Moreover, the most basic science was formed in the hands of Galileo, and it was passed down for many years. Although there were too many divisions and contradictions, it was always moving forward in the end, and science was promoted from generation to generation. This potential does not exist in any philosophical system.
Yes, science itself is a philosophical system.
Zhou Mengchen is now trying his best to make the students in Jiangnan, who are the most dynamic students with the Ming Dynasty, perceive this.
This is also the confidence of Zhou Mengchen. It is not that Zhou Mengchen is better than the research of these great scholars in his life in Confucianism, but that Zhou Mengchen firmly believes that the greatest wealth he brought from later generations, that is, science itself, is a sword that can cut through everything.
Zhou Mengchen was silent while giving lectures.
I didn't notice the reaction of the people on the stage.
He Xinyin was fascinated by hearing this. He remembered the various things Zhou Mengchen had investigated. He also remembered many things he had seen. He was vaguely touched, as if he saw a path. But it was not real. After all, He Xinyin was different from others. The Taizhou School has always been a study of mind. No, it should be said that among the entire Ming Dynasty scholars, the most down-to-earth and most capable of understanding the sufferings of the people.
Therefore, He Xinyin could even feel that Zhou Mengchen's theory had many things that could benefit the people. However, he did not care much about mathematical problems. He cared more about those seemingly simple physical rules.
He is like this, but it does not mean that others are like this.
At least, it is not like this.
As one of Wang Yangming's favorite disciples, Wang Ji did not rely solely on his verbal words. His mind, qualifications, and knowledge in all aspects were top-notch. Whether it was math or mathematics, he was proficient. Please note this point, ancient math was the mathematics of later generations. Ancient mathematics was the set of things like Shao Yong, which is the study of art and fortune teller.
So, he could still understand a little bit of mathematics just now. But later, he was completely confused. Without a foundation, even if Wang Ji was excellent, he would never understand it. Moreover, Wang Ji was older, although his academic status had improved, and although he had always wanted to firmly hold the position of Wang Yangming's heir, and his brothers opposed it openly and secretly, Wang Ji's status in the study of mind was still slightly higher than that of others. After all, when Wang Yangming was there, Wang Ji and Qian Dehong were professors, that is, disciples who became disciples of Wang Yangming had to be taught by both of them and lay the foundation before they could get Wang Yangming's teachings. After all, there were too many people who wanted to join Wang Yangming's disciples back then.
Wang Yangming had to come up with this solution.
This also caused his status to be different from other disciples. Qian Dehong was not good at using this position and wrote books in the mountains. Over time, his influence became weaker. Wang Ji was different, especially when other disciples of Wang Yangming withered one after another, Wang Ji's popularity became increasingly important.
However, he has become famous, but his learning, thinking, reaction, and many other abilities are not as good as those when he was young. Although he has rich experience, among all the experiences in Wang Ji, there is relatively little experience in mathematics.
It cannot bring him any more help.
This left him with no choice.
