Similarly, Chen Wu in the early Northern Song Dynasty saw that everyone seemed to be asking ordinary questions, just like chatting, so he asked casually.

"Anchor, that TV series is all fake, how come it looks so real?"

["This was produced by professional film and television workers." Xiaoxiao picked up his mobile phone, clicked on the camera to record a few seconds of video, and showed it to them.

"Like this, this is a tool for recording things. The scene is set up, the costumes are changed, and then the actors start to perform. The performance is not completed in one go. It is shot and recorded in stages, and finally edited. For example, this scene suddenly Moving on to the next scene, it’s editing.”

She repeatedly emphasized: "They are all fake. There is kung fu, but there is no such magical martial arts. The magical things are all post-production special effects."]

Seeing the anchor recording a video on her mobile phone and then playing it back, many smart people quickly realized that this may be the same as the anchor broadcasting to them. There is something filming her, but there are other people. This kind of complex performance and production, the anchor directly presents herself.

The question is, how does that thin and light box that can record things, transmit sounds thousands of miles away, navigate and find various things do it?

During the Yongle period, Gu Huaiqing was a craftsman. In the afternoon, he tried to build an earth that could stand up and rotate. At first, he wanted to make it out of the cheap wood he had on hand, but it was not big enough. When it was made, he felt it was not light enough.

Then I thought about it and made a round ball out of bamboo strips to put it on. It would not be very heavy or light. Paste paper on Hu, and it looks like that.

He had even drawn the longitude and latitude lines on the paper, but his memory was limited and he didn't know how to fill in the map.

So he asked the anchor if he could spin the globe again, a little slower.

[This is easy to say, Xiaoxiao agreed. Then he held on to the table and cabinet, jumped to the side, pulled off the cover, and slowly showed it to them. 】

The detailed and clear globe appeared on the secondary screen of the sky again. Suppressing his excitement, Gu Huaiqing looked at the sky, holding a pen in hand, and quickly started recording.

On the ground around him, there were several bamboo balls that were ready and covered with paper. He planned to make them together later and take them into the city to sell them early tomorrow morning.

Ding Xiaoyi was also from the Yongle period, and he was still a young man who was studying hard.

He was very diligent, and while everyone else in the academy was obsessed with new and interesting TV series, he was always watching the anchor's composition.

So he asked: "Anchor, you study so hard, do you need to take the imperial examination?"

[This question sounds like something that could be asked in the era of imperial examinations.

"They need to take exams. Children here basically have to study from the age of 7, from the first grade to the sixth grade, two semesters a year, with a three-month break in the winter and summer vacations.

There are usually in-class tests, and there are also midterm tests and final tests every semester. After six years of primary school, he took the primary school entrance examination and then entered middle school. Middle schools are divided into three years of junior high school and three years of high school. They also have monthly exams, mid-term exams, and final exams.

The three years from elementary school to junior high school are nine-year compulsory education. All children, regardless of gender, must study. Three years after junior high school, there will be a high school entrance examination. Only those who pass the high school entrance examination can continue to high school. Basically, the admission rate is half. .

It takes another three years to get into high school. After the third year of high school, there will be a college entrance examination. After the examination, students will apply to universities or other vocational and technical schools based on their scores.

I am currently in the summer vacation of my sophomore year of high school, and will be my senior year of high school in two months. I am about to take the college entrance examination. Basically, there are no classes, just review and answer questions every day. ”]

The people of Qin and Han who were originally thinking about what the imperial examination was, and the ancients who listened carefully after the Tang Dynasty, listened and used their brains to calculate, and they became more and more horrified.

Ding Xiaoyi, who asked this question, did a simple calculation. He started studying at the age of seven and had four mid-term and final exams a year. He started taking exams every month when he entered junior high school. By the time he got to the college entrance examination mentioned by the anchor, he had been studying for basically 12 years. take an exam.

The young man, who had not yet taken any exams, looked at the anchor on the marquee and felt a little respectful.

Others are more concerned about the decree that all children, regardless of gender, must study for nine years starting at the age of seven.

Even in the Song Dynasty, when the literary style was at its peak and the economy was developed, Zhao Xu did not think that studying was a cheap thing. Therefore, how could the courts in later generations allow all children to study, and also forced them to study? How could such poor families afford it? rise?

["My college entrance examination only determines whether I can go to university in the future, and what university I go to. It is not an imperial examination. It is similar to the imperial examination at present. We should have a public examination here, but I am not familiar with the public examination. The difficulty and pressure of the examination and the reporting unit are all different. It’s difficult. Well, I hope I won’t want to take the public exam in the future.”

Xiaoxiao, who didn't even pass the college entrance examination, didn't really want to have to hang her head and read every day in the future. At this time, she didn't know that there were quotas for failing each professional course in the university, and that she didn't have free rein after going to university. 】

The students who had their heads pierced every day just to take the imperial examination were worried. Isn't it difficult for them to take the imperial examination? You have to guess the meaning of the question, as well as the examiner's thoughts and writing style. You can't be too individual and lose your personality, but you can't be too impersonal and disappear into the crowd. If something goes wrong and you are harmed, it's hard to say whether the person is present or not. If you are not careful, you will be revoked. , so many years of reading have been wasted.

Liu San listened to the above anchor's words and asked with a complex expression: "Anchor, could you please tell me in detail about the nine years of compulsory education?"

He was a small businessman. When he was a child, he would lie outside the private school in the town and listen to the children's endorsements. He also wanted to go to school, but there were many children at home and he couldn't afford to send so many. Anyone who sent him to school would say that bias would cause trouble, so he simply didn't send any of them.

He couldn't think of any government that would let all children go to school. Would they also force them to pay a sum of money like a small official collecting taxes?

[“Compulsory education is stipulated by our country’s laws, and all school-age children and adolescents must receive national education that must be guaranteed by the state, society, and families.

Compulsory education nationwide is nine years, consisting of six years of primary school and three years of junior high school. In some places, it is 12 years. If you can pass the exam, the three years of high school are also included.

During the nine years of compulsory education, tuition fees are basically paid directly by the state finance. Basically, there is no tuition fee, just some tuition and miscellaneous fees, which are about a few hundred yuan. Nowadays, a month’s salary for ordinary people should be enough to pay for it. In the early years, it may not be available in some remote places, but our country’s investment and attention in education have been increasing. "

Xiaoxiao remembers that there was a newspaper specially cut by his father in the study. She rummaged through the drawer, took it out and read it to everyone.

"September 2008, 9, is a day that will be remembered by history - on this day, China realized the exemption of tuition and miscellaneous fees for all compulsory education in urban and rural areas."]

Looking at the newspaper that says "The total investment in education funding nationwide this year is 74 million yuan", even the emperor who feels that he attaches great importance to cultural governance can't get enough of the detailed policy articles, figures, and education population in the newspaper. Tell me that you should also rewrite the article.

Regardless of whether they are emperors, bureaucrats, nobles, or family gentry, they are only curious about a few things. One is how wealthy the imperial court in later generations was, and how much money was invested in this education alone to provide for so many people to study; Why on earth should everyone be required to read books? Aren’t you afraid that the more they read, the more they will think too much?

The early wealthy families instinctively felt uncomfortable, because at this time, education, especially higher education, was monopolized by them, and there were only a few great Confucian scholars who were not from good backgrounds.

"Disabled students from families with financial difficulties, students from rural subsistence allowance families, and students supported by special poverty relief in rural areas." How can we all be allowed to study? They are all disabled, so why should we allow such people to study?

Even people in the Ming and Qing Dynasties who were crazy about the imperial examination would grit their teeth and give their children a try if they had the conditions. They never thought that one day, studying would be so commonplace that the government would directly supervise it from childhood, and there would be no need to spend money on books. .

People from all dynasties have seen the words "Compulsory education is implemented without tuition and miscellaneous fees." There are still special legal provisions in the "Compulsory Education Law".

Ordinary people couldn't believe how there could be a place where the imperial government not only didn't ask for money, but also paid for people like them who couldn't afford to study or buy pens and ink to study.

"You don't pay taxes when you farm, you don't pay fees when you go to school, farmers get benefits, and we have a harmonious society..." Zhu Yuanzhang had complicated thoughts while reciting this jingle.

He grew up in Dayuan, where the Han people had the lowest status. His family farmed, and when he grew up, he also worked as a monk and had to earn a living. Even if he wanted to build a country that would not be inferior to his predecessors, he never thought that he could do it. To this point.

The farmers of later generations will not worry about lack of food or government taxes. They will have food to eat and study when they are born. It is a life that they even dare not imagine.

It’s just that everyone can’t figure it out. If the imperial court in later generations doesn’t even collect land taxes, but still spends so much money every year to help so many people across the country go to school, where on earth will they get so much money?

Zhang Yuping, a fisherman girl from the Zhengde period, looked at the canopy and was extremely grateful that the magical canopy allowed her, who had never read a book, to read and understand, and for the first time knew how to write her own name.

Before it was her turn, she was lying on the fishing boat, dipping her hands in the river water on the deck, imitating writing her name, hoping to learn to write in this way.

She even heard about Zhuge Liang from the anchor in the sky, and she didn't know that the world where the anchor lived was their future. Looking at the anchor who could write and read, her parents didn't think it was inappropriate. She just felt that heaven was really good.

She asked the anchor: "Is it true that everyone should go to school for free? Even girls can go?"

【"certainly."

Xiaoxiao pointed to the legal provisions in the newspaper and said: "According to the law, receiving compulsory education is not only our right, but also the obligation of each of us. Whether in cities or rural areas, boys and girls must go to school when they reach age. If If you don’t go, it’s against the law.”]

Not going to school when you are old is a crime. No one in the world has ever heard of such a law, but who can say that this law is not good? If you don’t want to, you can be like the children in the picture on the paper, holding up the book and laughing happily?

On the 19th, Wen Duxing, who lived during the Jiajing period, had a reputation as a scholar. He was also shocked by the posters on the sky screen. He didn't react until the anchor called the number twice.

He swallowed what he originally wanted to ask about the university. He especially wanted to know: "Why do we spend so much money to let everyone study?"

Is it good to study well, of course it is good, to be literate and sensible, to be an official in the imperial examination, and to have a good name can make you completely different in your original life group.

But is it really not a waste to spend such a huge amount of money to allow farm children in the countryside and even those with physical disabilities to go to school?

[“Letting people receive education and distinguish right from wrong is of course beneficial to individuals; for the country, only the comprehensive and comprehensive improvement of all citizens can improve labor efficiency.

To put it in layman's terms, just the computer on my desk, the mobile phone in my hand, and the glowing light are all made by humans, and making these, whether it is implemented by designers or factories, requires people to complete it. All of them are people who have read books.

Agriculturists who can cultivate high-yielding and delicious crops also need to go through basic education and then choose a major in college to study systematically. These convenient tools that can be seen everywhere require the work of a large number of educated people to create. ”]

Wen Duxing remembered that the anchor had said before that the operating principle of the lamp on her desk would be discussed later when talking about "physics".

Is this why the later generations of the court will let everyone study no matter how much money they spend? Only by making the whole people wise can they create these magical things?

Just in the host's home, there are already so many magical items that can be called miracles. So what is it like outside?

Zhang San of the Qing Dynasty was from Chengdu and was proud of their Wuhou Temple in Chengdu.

He didn't dare to ask anything else, but he remembered the two old people who came to the anchor's house before, and couldn't help but ask: "The anchor's grandma, grandma, are they also reading and writing?"

Did the old lady who brought things from the countryside to the city to see her granddaughter, who looked like she came from a well-off family, but whose aura was so close to theirs, also went to school?

[Xiao Xiao nodded: "My grandma and grandpa both finished high school in the city. One later went to a junior college, and the other also went to a normal school. In the past, my grandparents had limited conditions in the countryside and didn't even finish junior high school. But they were all Those who have studied.”]

So, is it because the two generations before could not finish junior high school, but it took decades to make it possible for all children to finish nine years of school...

The ancient people under the sky were either sad or envious for a moment, but they didn't know the reason for their feelings.

[Xiao Xiao waved to them, "That's the end of the first day of official live broadcast. See you tomorrow morning, everyone." 】

The sky turned white again, and it was time for everyone to close their eyes and go to sleep, but in their minds, the things on the newspaper still lingered in their minds.
