Chapter 341: Challenges and Responses
"What do you want to try?" Cao Yue asked with a smile on his face.
Xu Fei whispered in his ear just now, Cao Yue already knew that this South Korean history teacher was Jin Zhinan, a very famous historian and sinologist in China, and he also understood that the Korean side asked Jin Zhinan to come forward It was a special preparation, the purpose was to let Jin Zhinan, a history master, come forward to humiliate the Chinese exchange group and make Huaxia lose face.
But Cao Yue was not afraid at all, and asked the other party confidently what he wanted to try.
"Tea ceremony, calligraphy and painting, ancient music and dance, Go, kendo, martial arts, these items contain the essence of traditional Han culture, and we will try these. How?" Kim Ji-nam responded proudly, full of confidence, without the slightest hint of fear.
"Okay," Cao Yue immediately agreed, "If we lose, we admit that you are the orthodox inheritors of Han culture, and we in Huaxia have lost all traditional culture, and apologize to you." ”
Seeing Cao Yue say so confidently, Jin Zhinan was stunned for a moment and exchanged glances with Vice Principal Jin Chengxi.
"We allow you to be a scoundrel, and if you don't want to do something if you lose, we don't force it. Seeing that the other party hesitated, Cao Yue took advantage of the situation to take them into an army. "We Chinese people are the most generous, no matter in the face of villains or gentlemen, we treat each other with courtesy. ”
"If we lose, we also apologize to you and acknowledge that the orthodoxy of Han culture is still in China. Kim Ji-nam agreed. was commanded by Cao Yue, he can only say this.
Today, he was angry in his heart, all caused by Cao Yue's hook.
The young Chinese student's eloquent words made him couldn't help but feel angry.
Because it was difficult for him to use his own point of view to justify Cao Yue, Cao Yue blamed the Korean side for abandoning Chinese characters, and he could not use his motherland's practice of promoting national integrity to justify that they were qualified to inherit Chinese civilization.
The only thing that can save face is to beat the Chinese students in the competition.
Facts speak louder than words, as long as the competition is won, no matter how high-sounding the other party says, it will lose its convincing power.
Today I will definitely have a competition with the Chinese students, because he has been preparing for this exchange activity a few months ago.
In front of him, there were many students who were quite interested in sinology, and some of them were specially invited by him, and they could save face for him.
Soon the two sides agreed that half an hour later, at the Seoul Cultural Center, the two sides would hold exchanges and exchanges on traditional culture, including tea ceremony, chess, qin, calligraphy and painting, Go, swordsmanship, martial arts, etc.
After the leaders of the two sides discussed the method of the competition and selected the judges from the two parties, they also made their own preparations.
Zhu Chaoyang and Wang Ligang, the director of the academy, and an official from the Ministry of Culture who accompanied the delegation served as judges for Chinese, and Park Jung-tae, deputy director of the South Korean Ministry of Culture and Sports, who I met yesterday, and Kim Seong-seo and Kim Ji-nam of Seoul National University served as judges of the Korean side. All the competition equipment is provided by the Korean medicine, including tea leaves for the tea ceremony, instrumental music for playing the piano, and brushes and rice paper for calligraphy and painting.
The members of the Chinese exchange group, led by Cao Yue, went to a lounge next to the cultural center of Seoul National University to prepare.
Zhu Chaoyang handed over the responsibility of organizing the competition to Cao Yue, and Cao Yue made up his mind for everything.
Zhu Chaoyang trusted him like this, and Cao Yue was quite satisfied. He didn't refuse, and accepted the task happily.
When he led all the members to the break room, he asked the door to be closed, ready to admonish all the members.
Ding Jia, who was interviewed with the group, was unfortunately locked out of the door and could not interview for the time being.
This made Ding Jia very angry, but there was nothing he could do.
"In front of the South Koreans, we can't admit that what they say is reasonable, and many things are related to the national system and national honor. Can't they slap us in the face, and we still lean the other side over and let them slap us again?" Cao Yue faced everyone and said very seriously: "But we can't help but say that some of the things they said are very reasonable. ”
"Over the years, we have really not paid enough attention to our traditional culture, and many of the world's recognized essences and treasures have been spurned by us as dross. Even wearing our traditional costume, Hanfu, will be treated as performance art by Han. Except for the Han nationality, which of our many ethnic groups in China does not have their own traditional costumes? When the Koreans say that we have even abandoned our own traditional costumes, they really have no confidence to refute them. ”
Cao Yue said, looked at Zheng Han, and showed a little smile: "Fortunately, Senior Sister Zheng Han has always liked to wear Hanfu, and has made Hanfu a classic." Many senior sisters and juniors are also wearing beautiful Hanfu, otherwise we really can't refute them. ”
"In order not to lose the face of Huaxia, and in order to make the arrogant Koreans apologize to us, we can only win today's game, not lose. Cao Yue said, his eyes swept over the classmates in front of him one by one. "You have to win, it's a matter of national honor. ”
Everyone nodded in unison, they are completely aware of this, today's competition, we must win, we can't lose, otherwise everyone will lose face and lose the national body.
"All the students who came with the group are all top students of Jiangsu and Zhejiang University, and they have a lot of research and attainments in history and Han culture. But today, it is impossible for all students to play, and we can only choose the best students in all aspects to compete. In this way, let's recommend ourselves first, and students who think they are top in the field can take the initiative to request to participate in the competition. In the end, we voted by secret ballot to decide who would participate in the competition, what do you think?"
Cao Yue's proposal was approved by most of the members of the exchange group.
Zheng Han was the first to stand up and recommend himself: "I ask to participate in the tea ceremony, dance and music competitions." ”
Chen Baikun also immediately stood up and recommended himself: "I participate in the kendo competition, and I promise to win the Goryeo stick." ”
"Chen Baikun's kendo is very good, and no one in Jiangsu and Zhejiang University is his opponent at the moment," Zheng Han explained for Chen Baikun.
Seeing Zheng Han talking for him, Chen Baikun couldn't help but burst into joy, and the confident look on his face became even stronger.
"I think I have a little achievement in calligraphy," Cao Yue also took the initiative to stand up and said his strengths, "I also know a little bit about Go and piano music, and I have also achieved a little success in martial arts." ”
Cao Yue felt that he could participate in any project, but he was just embarrassed to say it.
"Cao Yue's art of learning the law is comparable to that of the master, and his level of piano music is very good. and his martial arts, many people have seen it, and all of us together are not his opponents," Zheng Han also said to Cao Yue.
She is the president of the "Han family" community, and most of the members of the exchange group who came to South Korea this time are members of the "Han family", and her words are very authoritative.
As a teacher, Xu Fei was also eager to try, "Otherwise, I will compete with Zheng Han and them in dance music, and we have worked together once before." ”
"That's a good idea," Zheng Han immediately agreed.
At this time, a very shy boy stood up and said very shyly: "I'm a Go professional Wudan, why don't you let me talk to them for a game." ”
This boy named Liu Suming turned out to be a five-dan Go major, which made Cao Yue couldn't help but be shocked.
The master is in the folk
Although he feels good in Go, he has never been to the exam, and he knows what the level of the professional seven-dan is, and it must be much higher than his level.
After everyone's self-recommendation, and finally the secret ballot of all the members of the exchange group, the list of participants in the competition was decided.
