One day, Chaplin met a tramp in the street of San Francisco. He had a brainwave and stepped forward: "Hello, I think you must be hungry, so am I. Let's go to a restaurant for dinner!" " The tramp was very happy, thinking that he must have met a charitable and devout Christian, so they went into a restaurant.

Chaplin listened carefully and studied his expression, posture and personality carefully. In the process of eating, the outline of a new film has been conceived in Chaplin's mind.

"Chairman Mao didn't believe in God since he was a child"

-Treat leaders with a realistic attitude.

During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, there was a passage in the Chinese textbook of primary schools in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region that Chairman Mao did not believe in God or Buddhism since he was a child.

Franklin caught lightning.

-seeking truth requires practice

Benjamin Franklin, a world-famous scientist and inventor, was second only to Washington in North America in the18th century.

Franklin's most thrilling experiment was to risk his life to explore lightning. In the west at that time, most people thought that lightning was "the fire of God", and a few people thought that lightning was a "gas bomb". 1752 July, a thunderous day, a deafening thunder exploded in the low-altitude clouds, accompanied by dazzling flashes, as if to tear the universe apart. In the storm, Franklin and his son flew a silk kite in the clearing of the pasture. There was another muffled thunder. The lightning in the cloud penetrated the thin wire on the kite and electrified both the kite and the rope. I saw the loose fibers on the rope immediately standing around. At this time, Franklin completely forgot his extremely dangerous situation, and immediately connected the key on the kite rope with the Leyden bottle to charge it.

Franklin's experiment, which risked his life, finally confirmed his inference: "Flash is lightning!" "

"I'm not a hero"

The reality is simple. Just tell the truth.

On June 6, 2003, 165438+ jessica lynch, an American female soldier who became famous for her legendary capture experience in the Iraq war, was interviewed by ABC for the first time and recalled in detail the painful experience of being captured in Iraq for nine days.

Her gun got stuck when she was ambushed. "I was ordered to reload and aim, but my gun got stuck ... I didn't shoot ... I was on the ground, and I don't remember what happened later. I don't consider myself a hero. "

In the process of playing, Seiji Ozawa suddenly found that there was some disharmony in the music. At first, he thought that the performer had made a mistake, so he directed the band around him to stop and perform once, but he still felt unnatural.

Sima Qian climbed the Great Wall.

Field trip is a realistic way.

When Sima Qian wrote Historical Records, he wrote the history of Wei. In one paragraph, it is said that in order to destroy Wei, Qin diverted the Yellow River and flooded the girder of Wei capital. Legend belongs to legend, but Historical Records is a historical work, so it is not true at all. In order to find out the truth, Sima Qian personally went to the local field trip. He climbed up the Great Wall, looking for signs of being flooded. After many troubles, he finally found the relic. To further confirm, he also visited the local elders and learned the story of wei ren's flood fighting in those days.

Then he sorted out and analyzed these materials, and finally confirmed the historical fact that Qin flooded Daliangcheng in Wei. In this way, he began to write and wrote this true story.

Li Siguang inspects Quaternary glaciers.

Seeking truth from facts means proceeding from reality.

When Li Siguang was a professor and head of the Department of Geology in Peking University, there was a long-standing popular view in the international geological geography that there were no Quaternary glaciers in China.

Nobel doesn't steal other people's beauty.

Seeking truth means respecting facts.

Nobel, the king of explosives, never stole the beauty of others. People always say, "Nobel invented nitroglycerin." Hearing this statement, he always has to correct it. He said: "I didn't invent nitroglycerin, but nitroglycerin can't be used without detonation method." I invented this detonation method. In addition, I also invented a convenient method to produce nitroglycerin in large quantities. "

Nitroglycerin was invented by Italian chemist Surero, but it was Nobel who made nitroglycerin into high explosives. At that time, because of Nobel's fame, people ignored Suaro, but Nobel told people the truth. When Suaro was in financial trouble, Nobel gave him great support selflessly.

Wheat trial planting in Peng

-seeking truth requires practice

In that era when satellites were widely deployed and boasting was prevalent all over the country, Peng planted an experimental field to prove whether he was really right-leaning and conservative, and whether the yield per mu could reach tens of thousands of kilograms. He carefully managed, plowed, fertilized and watered, and harvested 900 kilograms of wheat. Peng finally calculated and said, "One acre of land can collect eight or nine hundred Jin, which means we don't have enough time. Double it again, and the yield per mu will be 2000 kilograms, which is the day. Never reach 10 thousand kilograms. "

Challenge authority? Shake and defend the truth

The life of science lies in seeking truth from facts.

Copernicus was originally a priest in a cathedral in Poland. At that time, the church held that the earth was the center of the universe. Anyone who doubts this is a big mistake and will be severely punished. But Copernicus found this view wrong through long-term observation and scientific demonstration of celestial bodies. So regardless of the persecution of the church, he boldly published the book "On the Operation of Celestial Bodies" and established the sun-centered theory.

Bruno was a great Italian thinker in the Renaissance. He insisted on and developed Copernicus' sun-centered theory and was sentenced to death by the Inquisition. When the dry wood was burning under his feet, Bruno stared at the sky and said firmly, "Fire can't conquer me. The future century will know me and know my value. "

Indeed, the spirit of Copernicus and Bruno upholding and defending the truth is eternal.

Gorky refused to compliment.

-Treat yourself with a realistic attitude.

Gorky plans to publish 100 volumes of outstanding works by Russian writers until Chekhov.

There are enough flatterers around Gorky, and one of them lists Gorky's works at my meeting in the volume 100, and each work is praised. Gorky looked down at him and pursed his beard angrily. When the speaker talked about the poem Song of Haiyan, one of his early works, Gorky interrupted him: "You seem to be joking. I'm embarrassed to think of this work. This is a very bad work. " When talking about some of his plays, the man complimented him again, and Gorky interjected, "I'm sorry, gentlemen, the author you mentioned is a poor playwright." I don't think anything is decent except "The Bottom". "

Engels "Apologized to the Platypus"

Seeking truth is the courage to admit mistakes.

1843, Engels, who was in his twenties, was very suspicious when he saw the eggs of platypus in the British Museum in London. Because platypus is a mammal, and mammals are viviparous, how can there be eggs? He expounded his views publicly. However, more than 50 years later, in 1895, Engels understood that although platypus is a mammal, it is indeed oviparous and a special case among mammals. At this time, Engels was famous all over the world, but he still publicly admitted his mistakes when he was young and said "apologize to the platypus".
