Two hundred and thirty-seven Kaelina's panic.

The Eastman Conservatory of Music is affiliated to the University of Rochester, USA.

The History Branch is not very far away.

I originally wanted to find someone to check the information together, but Kalina finally chose to check it herself.

It's not a big deal, but it's definitely not a minor problem.

"God! I'm so crazy!"

Kalina looked at the paper in her hand with a headache.

"As one of the foundations of classical music, the twelve average laws actually came from China?!"

He shook his head suddenly, as if he wanted to completely throw this idea away.

"Impossible! Impossible! If this is true, wouldn't it mean that Western classical music was formed with the help of Eastern cultural theory?!"

Thinking of the sensation that this news would cause once it spread, Kelina shivered all over and her speed increased a little bit again.

For three consecutive days, Caitlin spent the pile of historical documents.

She raised her head again and sorted out the order, and a pale look appeared on her face.

Matteo Ricci!

There is indeed someone!

Looking through Li Wenyin's paper materials, it was clearly written inside.

"The first giant in human history to combine various studies and arts from the European Renaissance, as well as classical knowledge such as the Four Books and Five Classics in China?"

"Father Matteo Ricci's greatest contribution is in the field of 'cultural integration'?"

"These are true, but what is even more undeniable is the influence of Father Ricci's learning in China and the West."

"The twelve average rhythms mean dividing an octave into twelve semitone scales, while the representative instrument of Western music, piano, uses the twelve average rhythms as the basis for tuning and determining the tone!"

"The current Western music system uses the twelve equality as one of the most important legal benchmarks, opening up the glory of classical music in the Baroque period."

"Bach wrote 48 equal rhythms, why is this number? Because the twelve average rhythms have twelve semitones, each semitone can form a major key and a minor key in relation, with a total of 24 modes!"

"So, Bach wrote two songs in each mode, one prelude and one fugue!"

"But in fact, the origin of the twelve equal laws is in China!"

"In 1583, Matteo Ricci came to live in China. A year later, the Ming Dynasty scientist Zhu Zaiyu proposed the [New Method and Secret Rate] and discovered the twelve average laws. Matteo Ricci also mentioned Zhu Zaiyu's calendar theory in his diary! Therefore, Matteo Ricci was completely possible to know the theory proposed by Zhu Zaiyu, and his friend Mason was very likely to bring this law to Europe because of this."

"And the West generally believes that the person who created the twelve equal laws is Bach!"

"The Twelve Equal Laws were introduced to the West, and the academic community attached great importance to this, and reformed it to become the theory of modern Western music. Bach is indeed the culmination of the study of the Twelve Equal Laws. Not only does it integrate the new legal theory, but it also encourages composers to use this method to compose music. But it is simply nonsense to say that Bach is the creator of the Twelve Equal Laws!!"

"It was only 52 years after Zhu Zai-chan, a scientist in the Ming Dynasty, that corresponding academic theories appeared in the West, and more than seventy years later, Bach actually wrote the "Twelve Equalities"!"

"Perhaps, it can be said that Eastern and Western scholars have reached a consensus in the same science one after another, but if there is a bridge of East-West cultural exchanges like Matteo Ricci..."

Kalina's expression is very complicated and ugly.

This is like telling her clearly that your ancestors learned knowledge from the East and then developed it through this, but called it what they created!!

The argument is clear and the argument logic is absolutely solid.

Over the years, Western music has always been a little disdainful of Eastern music!

But if this is true, it means that such an attitude is completely a joke.

"Zhu Zaihe...there is such a person!"

Kalena looked through the historical information.

The ninth generation grandson of the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty in China? The son of the royal family?

Musician, scientist, mathematician?!

Going further down...nothing?

Why are there only such records?!

Kalena shook her head, feeling a little tired.

This matter cannot be handled coldly.

Li Wenyin selected the time when Zhu Zaiyu created the twelve equality theory, the time when Matteo Ricci came to China, the time when Western equality theory appeared, and the time arrangement of the early Baroque era of classical music, led by Bach.

Neatly tidy and tightly fitted, almost...invulnerable!

Once Li Wenyin really comes up with a solid evidence.

Then, maybe the entire history of Western music will change drastically!

Think about it carefully... Is it possible to issue such a paper so recklessly?

A fool may be possible, but a genius who meets once in a century should be unlikely.

So... the problem now is not how to rush to deny Li Wenyin! But to figure out how to deal with this matter!

At least don’t be shaken to the status and foundation of Western classical music!

Thinking of this, Kalina found several good classical music masters and planned to talk about it in private.

But I never expected that because of this idea... the incident became increasingly uncontrollable!

When Professor Kelina talked about this, some other professors did not respond, but Professor Eble was furious on the spot.

"What?! Nonsense!! That's nonsense!!"

His face turned red, and Professor Eble really couldn't accept such news.

"No matter how powerful he is, he can't discredit our classical music like this!!"

When he went home that day, Professor Eble became more and more angry as he thought about it, and he couldn't stand it.

"Damn it! How could the twelve average laws be discovered by Chinese people?!"

Finally, my mind became hot and a dynamic appeared on Facebook.

[Li Wenyin, the so-called genius in the classical world of China, is nothing more than an arrogant and arrogant guy?!]

The content is naturally Li Wenyin's related papers and the professor's personal interpretation of it.

No comments were made, but full of doubts.

But even if it is questioned and in the position of a professor, it will be over-interpreted and sought after.

At present, Professor Eble's students and friends began to reprint this news.

As for Professor Ebel's network of relationships, there are many students who are dominating the European and American music scenes.

Even though it was like stabbing a hornet's nest, the incident became more and more intense!!

From the initial questioning to condemnation, it even turned into a funny meme!

Not only are some chats and jokes between celebrity variety shows, but even some foreign talk show actors have started to use this joke to make funny jokes!

Finally, such incidents gradually swept across the ocean to China!!

In the military art office, Professor Wen's face looked a little ugly and looked at Li Wenyin with some concern.
Chapter completed!
