Three hundred and thirty musical instruments that have not been out of tune for more than two thousand years!(1/2)
"After all, you have to have strength!"
Chen Donglin smiled, as if he had thought of something. Looking at the people performing in the venue, he said to Li Wenyin with some emotion.
"It's not a day or two for Chinese people to be discriminated against in Europe and the United States, nor for once or twice!"
This sentence made Li Wenyin suddenly stumble.
I have been in Europe for so long, and I have been treated with cold reception and hostility, but if I have discrimination... Li Wenyin has never encountered it before.
Now it is still a bit unimaginable when Chen Donglin talks about this aspect.
After all, it is not something that has been experienced personally, so it is difficult for Li Wenyin to believe that anyone can do something like following the crowd, but Li Wenyin, as a public figure, cannot do it.
"Yeah?"
Frowning, Li Wenyin hesitated for a moment and spoke.
"I didn't feel it. At least for now, although there are people who are hostile to me, it's normal. I have never encountered discrimination..."
When Chen Donglin heard this, he laughed a little, shook his head, and said to Li Wenyin.
"That's because the classes of dealing with each other are different! These nobles and upper-class people, even if they discriminate, they will not be too arrogant. Besides, it is not surprising that you have the strength and those with the strength are respected."
“Is discrimination serious?”
Li Wenyin couldn't help asking.
“It’s serious!!”
Chen Donglin nodded and said seriously.
"It's so serious that you may not imagine that you have been in Europe for a long time, and you actually don't come into contact with many European people. You have bodyguards to follow you when you travel. Moreover, although the discrimination is serious, not everyone will discriminate, so you may not see it."
After hearing this, Li Wenyin's mood was inexplicably complicated.
I haven't experienced it, so it's hard to imagine being discriminated against.
But that must be bad!
"In fact, the trend of discrimination in the public is actually very complicated."
Chen Donglin said with a smile.
"A lot of historical problems. In recent years, with the development of national strength, although the discrimination problem is still serious, it has improved a lot. There are some reasons why we try our best to expand our influence and carry forward the Chinese culture. Many people will easily be led by the rhythm without understanding it and follow the trend of excluding China!"
Li Wenyin nodded and fell into deep thought.
Why is there an anti-China situation?
It is precisely because many foreign people, from the beginning of cognitive contact, that the image of Chinese people has become extremely ugly due to some prejudice, the intentional influence of politicians, and some historical problems.
Therefore, China promotes its excellent culture in order to establish a real and good image!
The gradual expansion of cultural influence will indeed make many people begin to face up to the culture of China, and at least eliminate some blind discrimination caused by root ignorance.
At first, Li Wenyin only felt that this trip to Europe was to show the strength of Chinese classical music to Europe.
But after hearing some of Chen Donglin's casual words, Li Wenyin felt that she seemed to think a little simpler. There are many things in it, and the vortex is also very large.
It’s really tiring to deal with these old foxes!
Li Wenyin complained in her heart.
I'd better do my job well!
"Hi!"
Thinking of this, Li Wenyin smiled and didn't think about these things.
"I am just a little person, a musician. I can't think of any major issues in saving the country and the people. Let's understand myself first! If you can help, just do what I can do!"
Chen Donglin smiled and nodded, looked into the field, and said nothing else.
However, Li Wenyin's heart seemed not so calm.
Hearing Chen Donglin's words made Li Wenyin feel strange.
At this time, I... seem to be a little out of the perspective of ordinary people.
This feeling is not good, and Li Wenyin even feels very unnatural.
To explain the difference between stars and the public, it is not unnatural. After all, over the past period of time, I have adapted to my own life and perspective as a public figure.
But after hearing what Chen Donglin described, the people who deal with him now are not the same as before, so they cannot see some public problems, which makes Li Wenyin feel an inexplicable sense of gap.
Especially Chen Donglin mentioned the men of the upper class in the UK, the four words "high society" immediately made Li Wenyin very unhappy.
I don’t know whether it’s up or not, but it’s quite vulgar.
Perhaps because of his background, although he has adapted to the identity of a public figure, Li Wenyin still feels that he is just a popular little man and does not want to be a high-ranking figure.

Looking at the performance in the venue, we have entered the next chapter.
The curtains were opened and three huge rows of chimes were displayed in front of the audience.
The accompanying staff not only understand music, but also guardians of cultural relics.
A long time ago, I had introduced relevant music theory knowledge to these staff. Although it was not enough to make a living by music, there was definitely no problem with ringing a bell song.
And the three rows of big guys brought up are the famous Zeng Houyi chime bells!
Seeing the big guy on the stage, Chen Donglin couldn't help but sigh.
"Wenyin, thanks to you, otherwise this big guy wouldn't know when he would show up."
Li Wenyin shook her head, smiled softly, and said nothing.
When Li Wenyin was looking up materials in order to write a paper, she had a doubt.
Why does the world not recognize that the earliest twelve equal laws appeared in China?
Even local musicians in China seem to believe that the twelve equality either originated in ancient Greece, was introduced with Buddhism, or originated in Europe?
Li Wenyin used to be a little unbelievable.
How can you let Zeng Houyi, who is known as the eighth miracle of the ancient world, fall in love with him?!
In Li Wenyin's impression of his previous life, Zeng Houyi chimes can be said to be the greatest discovery in the history of music, and it even rewritten the history of the world's music!
The ritual and music civilization in the pre-Qin era had already had the most powerful proof of the twelve average laws!
This is something from the early Warring States Period! It has a history of more than two thousand years!
But when checking the information, Li Wenyin suddenly discovered that there was no news of Zeng Houyi chimes at all.
And Li Wenyin was a little aware at that time.
Without Zeng Houyi chime bells, there is only some evidence hidden deep in ancient books and mentioned casually.
For example, this pale evidence among some unearthed ancient inscriptions from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
It’s not people who don’t believe it anymore.
After Li Wenyin's twelve equal-rhythm paper appeared and through Professor Wen's connections, some scattered ancient books were found, Chinese musicians began to ignite hope again.
The twelve equal laws originated in China and appeared very early!
We found ancient books related to the Ming Dynasty, confirming that the Twelve Equal Laws had scientific calculation methods as early as the Ming Dynasty.
This also proves that the evidence of the six yin and six yang laws described in some ancient books drawn from Li Wenyin’s thesis is supported!
Li Wenyin just mentioned Zeng Houyi's chime bell casually.
After all, the two worlds are not exactly similar, and Li Wenyin dared not promise at all, so she just said it and kept silent.
While Professor Wen asked someone to help search ancient books, some people were very concerned about the Zeng Houyi chime bells mentioned by Li Wenyin.
There was indeed a record of Zeng Houyi in ancient books!
The king of Zeng State has a very good relationship with Chu State!
Some of the inscriptions related to the State of Chu do record a small part of Zeng Houyi’s deeds!
So, with intentional exploration, the scientific expedition personnel really discovered the tomb of Zeng Houyi on a hill near a factory in Suizhou, Hubei!
Although it was more than 30 years late, fortunately, Zeng Houyi chime bells were still unearthed.
After more than a year of preparation and repeated testing, Zeng Houyi chimes finally made his debut on such a stage!
It can only be seen once!
When Li Wenyin learned about this, she was also stunned.
I said casually, you really dug it out?!
But then, there were bursts of ecstasy!
This represents Li Wenyin's paper, which is impeccable from now on!
The country also attaches great importance to such cultural relics!
It can be said that after this debut, it would be difficult to appreciate the sound from more than two thousand years ago.
To be continued...
