Zhang Haogu's work is very complex. From a broad perspective, the main functions of the Office of Truth are: formulating the history of Australia and Song Dynasty and the corresponding history of science, technology, politics, society and culture; setting the boundaries of science and technology for each department; and conducting research on books and films in the Great Library.
Screening; reviewing the scope of indigenous education and access to information. Compiling relevant manuals and sending them to the elders in order to unify the tone of the elders’ talks in all aspects. Nowadays, indigenous people and naturalized people are increasingly participating in the elders’ work. A certain
The momentary eloquence of a senator will become the source of rumors in the future.
Specifically, the work is divided into two parts. One is publication review. Since the completion of a series of printing equipment and technical research projects presided over by Zhou Dongtian, the printing and publishing business has been developing rapidly. All departments are working on a large number of preparations.
Publishing various textbooks, popular science books and technical pamphlets. How to master the appropriateness has become one of Zhang Haogu's main tasks.
The other part is responsible for the topic selection and organization and writing of "special publicity materials". Since the number of elders serving in the big library is limited and things are quite busy, except for some "major topics" that are "collective creations",
Most of the materials had to be written by Zhang Haogu himself - of course, he had the right to request contributions from other elders and pay a certain amount of remuneration - this practice had long been implemented in the Ministry of Culture and Propaganda. Most of the elders who wrote the writing were not for
A few circulation coupons, more to satisfy my writing passion.
The Ministry of Science and Technology is responsible for the specific review and approval of technical matters; Zhang Haogulai is responsible for any matters involving dark history, writing, political views, etc.
While writing "black material", he also had to review manuscripts, so you can imagine how busy the work was. Moreover, because of the high sensitivity of this work, he was completely unable to use direct naturalization. Most things
You have to do it yourself. In contrast, the historical data research team of the Grand Library can still use a few naturalized citizens who were Confucian scholars to help search and copy ancient books.
"Nǎinǎi, use me as a coolie." Zhang Haogu made a dissatisfied voice, stood up and paced around the office. The sunshine outside the glass window was so bright that it made people feel hot at the sight of it.
This is a corner of the Cultural and Propaganda Department compound in Bairen City. This was originally the location of the Great Library. Since the Great Library was moved to Gaoshanling, it has been occupied by the Cultural and Propaganda Department. The containers that originally stored these priceless treasures have been
It has been removed, but the traces of the stepping stones left behind are still vaguely discernible.
In order to serve the elders nearby, an office was set up in the large library in the courtyard of the Ministry of Culture and Publicity. There are several elders on duty regularly and can accept various consultations at any time.
In addition to the offices of the Cultural Propaganda Department and the Grand Library, this place is also the legal address of Lingao Times, Gewu Pictorial, the Publishing Steering Group and the Office of Truth - I say this because there are not so many elders and naturalized citizens here.
To fill these carrot holes one by one, most of them have several brands and one team.
Zhang Haogu's truth office occupies three offices in a corner of this compound. One is his data room, which is dedicated to storing the "black materials" that he collects and transfers to him from various ministries. The other is his
There is also a studio and a dormitory. Like many veterans, he is accustomed to staying in the office and can work at any time. As for the staff, there are only two people: him and his female servant.
His secretary and maid heard his footsteps and walked out of the dormitory next door. Seeing that his head was sweating, she poured him a cup of herbal tea and lowered all the blinds in the room.
It got darker, but I also felt a lot cooler.
There are letters and letters stacked on the table - these are the manuscripts typed by the typists of the printing office. Zhang Haogu keeps scribbling on the manuscripts with ink pen every day, and from time to time he uses a red pen to scribble on the manuscripts.
Please comment on the revised comments. Naturalized people accidentally saw Zhang Haogu's work, and most of them thought he was a great leader.
Zhang Haogu picked up the latest issue of the "Special Propaganda" pamphlet and compiled a catalog. According to this time and space, this is called "uncovering the post."
In ancient society, a post was something like a leaflet, mostly unsigned, attacking someone or something, and sometimes directly pointing the finger at the court and the emperor.
In ancient society, due to the lack of sufficient technical investigation methods, it was generally difficult to trace the source of unidentified posts, and the security was very high. The disadvantage was that the number of literate people in ancient times was too small, and the ability to radiate to the lower classes of society was limited. Therefore, unidentified posts could only be
Influence officialdom and the literate class.
Since the Office of Truth works for the people of the Ming Dynasty, it cannot be completely divorced from the historical reality of the time like other departments. It must pay attention to some political issues in the late Ming Dynasty.
In this regard, some work has been done in the past, including the compilation of "Records of Atrocities" and the pamphlets distributed during the second counter-encirclement and suppression campaign, but at that time it was only sporadic work and was not used as a main means. Now it needs to be systematic
Organize and tackle it as a job.
Zhang Haogu thought over and over again and decided to adopt a three-pronged approach to carry out special publicity. The so-called three-pronged approach means to create promotional materials that suit the characteristics of each audience according to their different characteristics.
The first is the method of creating headless posts and forging Di newspapers. The content starts from commenting on the three major cases and the three major campaigns, involving major political events in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, including the "counter-case" against the Donglin Party members during the Tianqi period.
Zhang Juzheng's reforms and the reaction after his death, etc. Emphasis on "re-investigation" and "rational analysis" of previous political events, providing unique views and information that are different from the past, and superficially emphasizing opposition to weak officials and mediocre government
, supporting the emperor, in fact, the connotation is to guide the "reflection" on the entire Ming Dynasty political system - this is aimed at the scholar-bureaucrat class.
Secondly, we use story novels as a model to create some popular text pamphlets with appropriate pictures. They are distributed to storytellers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. They can also be circulated as popular novels, criticizing the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty and promoting the Lingao Group.
, the form of expression is relatively obscure. It can be supplemented by some colorful palace jokes, and can even promote some new scientific knowledge. This is mainly aimed at the citizen class.
Finally, I compiled some folk songs and nursery rhymes for the southern provinces. Although the technical content is not high and the grade is low, these things have been very lethal since ancient times. Before every major political change, various insinuating shadows
Nursery rhymes and ballads will be spread everywhere, which shows its power. This is aimed at farmers.
Zhang Haogu's current main focus is on fabricating revelations and producing story-telling novels. Both of these have certain technical requirements. First of all, they cannot reveal that their true source is Australian, so they cannot use their stone seals.
Or typesetting, you must use rigid or traditional movable type - such as clay movable type or wooden movable type. Such printing effect is relatively poor. Zhou Dongtian set up a traditional printing workshop in the printing office specifically to serve this purpose.
As for the content, part of it was obtained by asking the elders for manuscripts. Generally, the elders were not able to write articles directly in classical Chinese or Ming Dynasty vernacular, so most of the manuscripts could only be written in "Newspeak" by the elders, and then
Then let the elders with such ability perform the "translation".
Most of these special promotional pamphlets are compiled according to the three principles of xing, politics and secrets. The content is full of street stall literature. However, the content of each issue of the pamphlet is also targeted to a certain extent, based on the current situation.
Make certain adjustments to the target of the attack.
What Zhang Haogu was holding in his hand was a catalog of brochures that had recently passed the review and were about to be printed. Twenty categories were listed on it:
What three last wishes did Emperor Wanli leave before his death?
Wei Zhongxian pleases the emperor, but why is he still unknown whether he is alive or dead?
The mastermind who killed the Donglin Party, the Eunuch Party was expelled from the capital
Being robbed by six emperors for 60 years: the most sought-after woman in the Ming Dynasty
A speech given by Chengzu before entering Nanjing
The truth behind the Tumubao Incident: What were the sacrifices of the Ming army for?
Conflicts during the reform: Zhang Juzheng denounced the scholars as "luàn state monsters"

The word count of these pamphlets is generally between 10,000 and 20,000 words, and no more than 50,000 words. Each printing is only a few hundred to one or two thousand copies. After printing, they are smuggled to the mainland for distribution. Due to the novel subject matter
, the story is fascinating and the language is simple. Therefore, it is very popular among the indigenous people. In Guangdong, the special promotional pamphlets distributed by the Foreign Intelligence Bureau through the Black Dragon Society system have created a quite strong demand market for underground reading materials. Originally distributed for free
The pamphlets were actually hoarded by people, and very rough pirated versions printed with movable clay type and ink also appeared. So much so that Zhou Dongtian seriously considered whether to officially dump these special propaganda pamphlets to the Ming Dynasty as popular reading materials.
.
Zhang Haogu believes that this phenomenon obviously reflects the serious lack of popular reading market in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the publishing steering group can do more articles in this area - he recently presided over the revision of Jin Yong's works. In addition to "The Deer and the Cauldron"
In addition to "Blue Blood Sword", the other eleven volumes have all been revised and are ready to be published one by one. There will be other publishing projects to be revised next...
"I've been working so hard, I wonder how effective it will be?" He thought like this, put the pamphlet and catalog in his hand on the table, found the truth office's approval stamp from the box, and stamped it on the catalog. See
The bright red stamp fell on the paper, and he let out a sigh of satisfaction.
