Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

#1254 - Chapter 1241 Fang Sheng will live forever!

Peach Blossom County Government Office, 6:00 AM, clear skies.

The exhibition halls were teeming with people, countless tourists frantically taking photos.

At the entrance, a slender and beautiful female host was speaking eloquently in front of the camera.

"Esteemed viewers, the location we are currently at is the entrance to the former Peach Blossom County Government Office."

"At the front, you can see the plaque inscribed with 'Teacher for All Ages' hanging, and below it is a half-length portrait of Fang Zheng Yi, the Sage Fang, in his youth."

The female host spoke, then picked up her cue card.

"Fang Zheng Yi, courtesy name unknown, sobriquet Qinglian Hermit, pen names used include Li Bai, Du Fu, Su Shi, Meng Haoran, Cao Xueqin..."

"He is a renowned artist, writer, chemist, mathematician, physicist, politician, lyricist, composer, singer, dancer, instrumentalist, conductor, gourmet, performer, author, triangle player, inventor... of our country."

The surrounding tourists began to applaud, but a discordant voice came from the crowd.

"What's there to introduce! Who in the world doesn't know!"

"Today is a global livestream, foreigners don't know that much, why are you talking so much."

The female host, with excellent professionalism, continued to speak eloquently in front of the camera.

"Singer, calligrapher, founder of rap, diplomat, military strategist..."

The female host read for a while, and then people started arguing again.

"Calligrapher, are you kidding me? Fang Zheng Yi's calligraphy is famously ugly, like a dog crawling! Isn't that pure performance art? You can't just make things up because he's famous!"

"You illiterate, if you don't understand art, then shut up! Sage Fang's calligraphy is unconventional and unique, with bold strokes and unrestrained freedom. I hate you know-it-alls who look up some garbage online and dare to comment on the artistic achievements of our ancestors!"

"That's right! Always these ungrateful bastards!"

The female host continued to read: "Gourmet, founder of modern art, weapons design expert, aerodynamics... Fang Zheng Yi is also hailed by all sectors of society as the founder of modern society, the founder of the fashion clothing industry, the pioneer of film art, the father of computers, the pioneer of artificial intelligence, the inventor of shared area... advocate of vernacular Chinese, initiator of the anti-smoking movement, Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, Emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty..."

"Creator of wolf culture, advocate of the no-overtime movement, initiator of the two-day weekend..."

She read for more than ten minutes without any sign of stopping.

The tourists who had been listening with interest finally became impatient.

"Stop reading! Just summarize it in one sentence: he's everywhere, isn't he? It's so troublesome!"

"Can't fit! Peach Blossom County can't fit so many people!"

The female host still read: "...The highest-selling author in history, the last great synthesizer in history."

After saying all this, the female host finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the surrounding people also felt relieved.

When we were in school, they gave us a separate booklet for this crap, listening to it now is really torturous.

"Okay, everyone, please follow me into the exhibition hall and visit with me."

The film crew followed the host's footsteps and started to move forward. The tourists were very well-behaved and consciously made way under the pushing of the security guards.

The female host introduced with a sweet smile, first pointing to a dragon robe.

"Everyone, please look, this is the dragon robe that Fang Zheng Yi wore back then. In his later years, Emperor Jing became increasingly senile and repeatedly mistook Fang Zheng Yi for the crown prince, even wanting to pass the throne to him, even going so far as to make a scene in the court."

"The Great Emperor Li Yuan Zhao was filial and kind. In order to appease his father, he forced Fang Zheng Yi onto the throne to be emperor for a day... The next day, Fang Zheng Yi resigned, becoming the shortest-reigning emperor in history. And the second shortest reign is still held by Fang Zheng Yi as the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty."

"Although short, Fang Zheng Yi is the only man in history to have been emperor of two countries, which is a great story."

After the female host finished speaking, she continued to walk inside.

"We can see that there are many paintings hanging in the exhibition hall, all of which were painted by Fang Zheng Yi himself. Among them, the most famous is this 'Sunflowers'."

The Painting 'Sunflowers' by the Supreme Sage and Teacher Fang Zheng Yi

"Fang Zheng Yi's paintings were all created at home in his later years. 'Starry Night' was also painted at the same time as 'Sunflowers'. The lines in this painting are tangled and swirling, giving people a sense of spatial freedom, and the vortex in the painting cleverly corresponds to turbulent flow. This amazing discovery shocked the world."

Later generations discovered through this 'Starry Night' that Sage Fang's eyes had special abilities.

"And this also indirectly confirms some of the situations recorded in the diaries passed down by some of Fang Zheng Yi's students. Fang Zheng Yi once discovered a black hole with his naked eyes."

The surrounding tourists burst into fierce arguments.

"Oh my god, I can't listen to this anymore... If I wasn't accompanying my girlfriend, I wouldn't come here even if I died..."

"What can't you listen to? Are you saying that the painting doesn't match the turbulence? If it matches, then it means he can see black holes."

"Heh, you bunch of losers who question our ancestors every day, you only know how to find fault because you're useless!"

"Everyone's physique is different, what's there to argue about!"

The female host couldn't help but feel a little annoyed at this moment. The cameraman opposite her quickly raised a sign.

Indicating that she had already used AI to block out the background noise.

The female host took a deep breath: "Then we can see this urinal on the right hand side, its name is 'Fountain'. This work of art profoundly reflects the dynamic nature of art, and is also regarded as the most influential work of art in the world. At the same time, the urinal is also one of Fang Zheng Yi's thousand representative inventions."

This work was imitated by foreigners. Legend has it that the original has a smell of urine, so it is not convenient to display.

"What artistic essence!? Fang Zheng Yi is a famous toilet maniac, building toilets all over the world. There may be no other meaning to him making a urinal, maybe it's just a spare in his house, and he just put it on display."

"That... that's true, Sage Fang does have a special liking for toilets. If you insist on saying this thing is a work of art, I also think it's outrageous."

"Isn't a urinal used by Sage Fang a work of art?"

"That's right! This is a work of art!"

The female host said one thing, and the people below immediately started arguing. Seeing that the scene was a bit out of control, the film crew quickly hinted to the female host to speed up the progress.

The host quickly moved to some important inventions.

"Everyone, please look, what is placed next to my hand now is the computer prototype proposed by Fang Zheng Yi in his later years. This uses paper tape perforation to record zero and one."

"Of course, this is just a superficial invention. With Fang Zheng Yi's strong insight, he naturally thought of iterative products. The later evolution versions have been lost, but archaeologists have found such an item in Fang Zheng Yi's relics."

The female host pointed to a jade pendant.

"At first, everyone thought this was a jade ornament, but later archaeologists made an amazing discovery on it! They found an extremely advanced 3.5mm headphone jack at the bottom! After demonstration by global experts, this is exactly the smartphone deduced by Fang Zheng Yi!"

"And not only that, he even envisioned the field of artificial intelligence, that one day computers could achieve computing power that surpasses the human brain, and there are only fragmentary written records of these things."
