The paper I just wrote turned out to be true

Chapter 76

One of the rewards is oracle knowledge.

It can be said that no one in the world understands oracle bone inscriptions better than Lin Chen.

Lin Chen first entered the Post Bar forum.

【Oracle Post Bar】

There are Oracle fans from all over the world in the post bar.

Of course, students make up the majority.

Therefore, the most common sentence in the group is: "Which teacher can help me find out what this oracle bone inscription is?"

Lin Chen simply scanned it, just like reading simplified characters.

Any word can know its matching simplified characters.

Of course, the meaning of the oracle bone inscriptions together is not known.

Just like knowing Chinese characters, you may not necessarily understand classical Chinese.

In November of this year, the Chinese Character Museum issued a "Reward Announcement".

According to the announcement, research results that decipher uninterpreted oracle bone inscriptions and have been appraised by the expert committee will be awarded 10 yuan per word, and research results that make new interpretations of controversial oracle bone inscriptions and have been appraised by the expert committee will be rewarded 5 yuan per word.

However, there are still nearly 3000 uninterpreted characters.

Lin Chen thought about it, this...
It has become your own cash machine.

Lin Chen was ambitious and downloaded an unsolved oracle bone inscription from the official website.

I found a few pieces of A4 paper and wrote it down.

An oracle bone fragment is not an oracle bone inscription.

But several.

Lin Chen pressed the oracle bone rubbings and began to organize them one by one.

Nankai University.

A postgraduate student in the Department of Archeology sat confidently in front of his tutor.

The tutor took his hard-working demonstration report "Explaining the "Stupidity" of Oracle Bone Inscriptions—and Discussing Related Issues." He planned to participate in the reward offered by Oracle Bone Inscriptions, and he was confident that he would definitely be rewarded.

Because his argument is well-documented.

It must be passed.

"That's right, there's nothing wrong with it. If you guessed it right, you've made a great contribution."

Professor Xue put down the report and said a little excitedly.

As a researcher of oracle bone inscriptions, Professor Xue knows how significant the cracking of an oracle bone inscription is.

If a noun or a verb is deciphered, then a large number of oracle bone inscriptions will be popularized, and the history at that time will be understood.

Jiang Bin breathed a sigh of relief, the instructor did not find out the mistake, and it is estimated that many experts did not find fault.

His mentor is an expert in Oracle.

He even participated in the China Mazatlan Project Group, although he didn't make it to the news.

But also one of the best characters.

And I did this work throughout my postgraduate period.

Poured all the sweat and painstaking efforts.

Jiang Bin secretly thought: "The general project of the National Social Science Fund is only 20 yuan. If I guess the word correctly, then I will get 10 yuan, which is worth five national scholarships for graduate students."

"Thank you teacher, can you vote for me then?"

"no problem."

Soon, Jiang Bin received the news.

His argument report was handed in.

At this time, Jiang Bin came to hang out in the post bar again.

Watching a lot of people asking about Oracle.

With an idea, he also posted the word "stupid" in the oracle bone inscriptions he had guessed, and added the text: "Does any teacher know what this means?"

Got a few replies quickly.

"I checked the comparison table just now, and your word has not been deciphered yet."

"Fuck, I said why didn't I find out."

"top."

It may be because of the reward offered by the Text Museum and the broadcast of the lecture.

The post bar is very popular.

Everyone is gathering here.

All kinds of wild guesses, hoping to have some breakthroughs.

What if you can guess one correctly and get a reward of 10 yuan?

"puff!"

Lin Chen finished writing a thousand-character oracle bone inscriptions.

When I was looking for contact information, I suddenly found a reward request.

It is not easy to get this bonus. First, the participants must write the "Scientific Demonstration Report on Interpretation Results of Oracle Bone Inscriptions", which can be submitted to the Museum of Chinese Characters only after being recommended by two peer experts with senior professional titles.

The interpretation of a word must conform to all the contexts of the same era horizontally, and must conform to the evolution of characters in different eras vertically.

Therefore, museums are not just for people to guess.

The simple ones have been cracked by experts, and the rest are hard bones.

Experts can't explain it.

Not to mention others.

The following group of people complained.

[This matter is actually a paradox when you think about it carefully. First of all, you have to talk about deciphering, that is, no one knows the meaning, so who is going to verify the authenticity of the deciphering?Vote with your feet for the minority to obey the majority? 】

[Oracle bone inscriptions have been studied for more than 100 years, and the more commonly used characters have almost been interpreted, and the rest are characters that everyone does not recognize or are highly controversial.

For example, the latest "New Oracle Bone Inscriptions (Updated Edition)" still contains 1224 unexplained characters as appendices for future reference.Moreover, the research and interpretation of oracle bone inscriptions should be able to go all the way through oracle bone inscriptions, bronze inscriptions, bamboo slips, seal script, official script, etc., so as to be more reliable and convincing. Of course, this is also very difficult. 】

[Strange interpretations appear from time to time.This is the whimsy of some folk researchers, with occasional astonishing words, but often they cannot be coherent in logical argumentation, and many of them are not advisable.But since people like it, it seems that they can't discourage enthusiasm too much. 】

[It is still a game in academia.The results of the selection should generally be the papers of scholars, and private researchers may not be very good at academic norms, and the review committee is naturally a senior in the academic circle.At present, there are not many ancient Chinese scholars and institutions at home and abroad]

[Have you ever played "You Draw and I Guess"?Full name——You f*** drew it, I guessed it stupidly]

[Your academic circles have been deciphering it for decades, but you still can’t decipher it, and you still don’t let the folks participate, making it clear that you don’t want to decipher it.Only people with two senior titles can be recommended to participate, which basically prevents the possibility of non-governmental participation.I think you don’t want to award this money]

And many people gave their own guesses, Lin Chen took a few glances, and many of them were wrong.

There are one or two correct ones, but most of them are wild guesses without any basis.

Lin Chen examined himself.
He also seems to lack logic.

However, the fact is that all handwriting is recognized.

How did you guess?

Sorry, didn't guess.

Just look at it.

For example, the simplified Chinese character "sea" is the sea when you see it, but you don't know why it is the sea.

Then we have to push forward step by step.

The required knowledge reserve is not 01:30.

Lin Chen felt a little helpless.

It just so happened that a boss in the new group I just joined posted a message.

[Professor Wang Jianing of Heyu University: Dear teachers, students who want to participate in the Oracle Bone Inscription Competition can submit them to me. I can submit them directly after the review is all right, without going through complicated procedures]

[Professor Ma Huadong of Shihezi University: Great, I have a student who wants to apply, how can I send it to you, Mr. Wang? 】

ps: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!
