Recently, an article appeared on the Internet, "Old True Books were born and Hong Xue Building collapsed", which attracted a lot of people's attention and made the so-called "Twenty-eight Chapters after the Story of the Stone in Gui You" a hit. (Later, it is also called Wu's Stone, and it is referred to as Wu's Stone, Gui You Ben or Wu Zuben, Wu Ben, etc. Some netizens nicknamed it "ghost book". Because of the same source, for the convenience of writing, this article will be collectively referred to as Gui You Ben).
Since 2008, two people with aliases He Lili and Liu Junjun have published 28 chapters after Gui You Ben on the Internet. They claimed that this "copy" (note: the original words are the same, and the "note book" seems to be more appropriate) belongs to the fat review series of A Dream of Red Mansions, with a total of 108 chapters, and its "female parent" was written in the year of Gui You in the lunar calendar. So it was named Gui You Ben, and the author of this book was Wu Meicun instead of Cao Xueqin!
Any clues, objects and materials related to A Dream of Red Mansions will be paid great attention by the public and fans, and even they can't wait to get a detailed view under a magnifying glass, not to mention the "new discovery" of A Dream of Red Mansions. In particular, it involves the view that the author of A Dream of Red Mansions is not Cao Xueqin and the whole book of A Dream of Red Mansions 108, which will subvert all views in the whole red circle! Then, relevant experts are needed to identify the specific age and content of the notes. Unfortunately, the last 28 chapters of Gui You's edition have been published on the Internet for more than ten years, and they have never revealed their true contents, let alone the real objects, or even photos or copies of the real objects. Except for a few very vague photos of the so-called "over-recorded version" of the Republic of China, there have always been only online words, which inevitably makes people suspicious.
However, this does not prevent the organizers of Gui You Ben from bringing forth the old and bringing forth the new every year. This week, several revised online editions of Gui You commemorative editions were released one after another. By 20 1 1 Gui You, when the so-called "third anniversary edition" was published online, the content had been changed to "every six edition". In March of 2014, when the "sixth anniversary edition" was launched, the paper book "The Last 28 Chapters of Gui You's Stone Story" was published through Kyushu Publishing House.
On the other hand, when Wang Xiaofeng, another fan of this book, published 28 comments on The Story of the Stone on the Internet in February, 20 13, he thought that the author was Yan, and proposed that the year of Gui You was not the year of Gui You before JOE's manuscript, but a whole year earlier. It was also compiled by Wang Xiaofeng and published by online bookstore on 20 15. Author's note is Cao Xueqin. Isn't it strange that the same person has changed so much after two years? Is it strange that the author of A Dream of Red Mansions has changed so much in two books of the same origin? Are there any grounds for these changes? Is it a rash?
The so-called "Story of the Stone" by Wu, which originated from Ben, cannot be justified because its product placement has implanted the concept that the author is not Cao Xueqin, confusing the "year" of 1753. After 20 15, the book "Comments on the Addition and Deletion of Wu's Story of the Stone" was published by the online bookstore. With the help of a willing heart, it is widely spread through the official account of WeChat. The limelight has been very strong recently. Some of them made great efforts to study the history of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, sorted out all kinds of historical materials, notes and unofficial history in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and made a thorough investigation of the slightly famous literati in the hundred years before and after the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and accordingly arranged a staggering "Wu Meicun +N" so-called "Dream of Red Mansions" literati creation group in the Kangxi period. In order to verify that his point of view is extremely correct, he not only "recreated" (renovated) the last 28 episodes of the so-called Gui You edition, but also "processed" the fat comments of the first 80 episodes as needed (tampered with the text, and then extended it to become a favorable support for his point of view). If the words and criticisms in the first 80 articles do not conform to our school's views, they will be changed, deleted and unchangeable, and a few comments will be made under the guise of distortion. As a result, a new version of the so-called "Twenty-eight times after the addition and deletion of Wu's Story of the Stone" came out. It is estimated that the photocopies of the first eighty chapters of Review and Addition of Wu Stone Story (the first eighty chapters) are being processed, and it may take a long time to "come out". Let's wait and see. Moreover, the original is absolutely afraid to be concocted. On the one hand, the paper and ink forgery technology of that year was not up to standard, and it was easy to be seen through by high technology. Secondly, there are too few people who can write beautiful flies' heads and bend over to concoct such a heavy workload, so they can only make a fuss about photocopying.
However, a "trial evaluation" shows timidity. If you "evaluate" it, it is called "comment" instead of "trial evaluation". The second "comment" means "re-evaluation" and "re-evaluation". What is a "trial evaluation"? This means that "reassessment" is obviously beforehand. Well, I added a "comment" and I was not very confident, so I changed my ambiguous name to "trial evaluation" and "trial evaluation" What? Did you know or plan to "comment" several times from the beginning?
The reason why the author took pains to mention the differences of these so-called Gui You manuscripts is to show that these so-called Gui You manuscripts not only have different names, but also have different authors, and their claimed works are as different as a Jiazi. I can't help asking Gui You fans, if there is such a "version", since the so-called paper books are not published, is it appropriate to publish paper books with different contents rashly from an academic point of view?
Judging from the vertical axis of the publication time of Gui You edition, the so-called "anniversary edition" of Gui You edition is quite different in text changes. For example, in the second half of chapter 90 of Gui You Ben, the third anniversary edition has more plots than the first anniversary edition, and the number of words in this chapter has increased by more than 1 1% (957 words actually). It can be said that each edition is getting smoother and smoother, and some common sense mistakes and typos in the previous edition are gone.
Why is the content and plot of everyone's "release" of Gui You's book so different? Is the content "published" by the same person so different? Gui You Ben fans, is this "release" or "creation"?
In addition, the ghost book has been constantly refurbished and hyped, and it has also been slandered by all aspects of the text. Compared with the concise language style of the first eighty chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions, Gui You Ben has a completely different modern style of writing. Please look at an example, such as Gui You Ben's eighty-third palindrome:
Mrs. Wang lay down for two or three days, saved people, stopped shouting, and her body was still hot. Jia Zheng invited a famous doctor outside and wrote a prescription for Mrs. Wang to take medicine. Mrs. Wang has not improved, but has worsened. The famous doctor also cheated money and ran away. Soon, Mrs. Wang passed away.
Jia Fu knows it's all the fault of the famous doctor, but he can't find it in every way, and he hates and scolds, but what's the good? Mrs. Wang held Baoyu's hand in tears and refused to relax. She said, "My son, my mother has nothing to worry about. I just miss my son's failure, and I'm afraid I'll neglect my studies in the future and no one will take care of you. How can I rest assured? " I'm afraid that narrow-minded people hate you, and I'll be coy when I have time, and no one will protect you. Why isn't mom sad? "
The analysis is as follows:
First, there is a common title in the Qing Dynasty drama: "Being a mother". After searching for "Gui You Benhou 28 Club", Mrs. Wang and Li Wan frequently call themselves "mothers", with a quota of 10, which is disgusting. However, there is no such thing as "being a mother" when searching all the banknotes and the printed copies of A Dream of Red Mansions in the first 80 times.
Second, there is also a word "packaging" in the above quotation, which also appeared very late. It was first seen in the fifth chapter of "Officialdom in the Appearance" written by Li in the late Qing Dynasty: "Tell him to spend, and immediately tell him to pack up and get out". I wonder what the organizer of "Gui You Ben" will say about this.
Third, judging from the first paragraph of the above quotation, there are four "Mrs. Wang" in the three sentences, and the overall paragraph is verbose, and "in the prime of life" is also suspected of being ill-conceived. These characteristics are completely inconsistent with the concise wording of the first eighty chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions.
In addition, there are many hilarious plots in Gui You Ben, for example, there are traces of martial arts novels:
Wei also rushed in with a sword and shouted, "Don't run away, dog thief, eat my sword!" " Lady Xing cried, "Your lordship has been killed by Huan-erh. Kill the thief's wife and son and avenge him! "They all flew into a rage and rushed to the robbers to fight with the thieves. When the sword flashed, several thieves fell to the ground (see Chapter 92 of Gui You Ben).
For another example, there are traces of modern humanity: for example, it is mentioned that Jia Baoyu and Jiang Yuhan were engaged in Longyang. "It is said that Baochai lifted the curtain and came in. She saw Baoyu and Jiang Yuhan rolling together on the kang, burying her face and saying," Die, you are ashamed to kill people. "(see" Gui You Ben "back to the first 103) so realistic and straightforward, spicy eyes, is this still a dream of red mansions?
There are also some ironies in the dialogue, such as:
Example 1
Jia Yun and Xiaohong hurried to catch up and said with a smile, "You are so arrogant, ignoring your fellow villagers and helping us." Lotus officer squint way: "but nonsense! We don't know you very well, we just know each other. What friendship can we talk about? " Xiaohong smiled and said, "Help us for the sake of understanding! We sincerely come to the big brothers to ask for a bowl of rice. Do you have the heart to watch my husband and wife starve to death? " (See Gui You Ben, 95th time. )
Let's not talk about whether the "Twelve Officials" have the ability to be "robbers". Let's just say that the word "hometown", which is modern and only exists in modern Chinese dictionaries, has also appeared here. I don't know what to say.
Example 2
Xia Jingui flirted with Jia Baoyu in the middle of the night: "I saw him with loose hair, clothes and a demon tone, showing his snow-white shoulders and squinting at him. ..... Jingui said:' Why do you say these cliches? Sister-in-law cares about you, don't you appreciate it?' Baoyu said, "Sister-in-law, go home. I'm going to blow out the light and go to bed. Let me eat fruit for a while. Jingui suddenly grabbed her hand and said,' Your sister-in-law is a dead person now, and it is very difficult to live alone. My brother and I left here together, so let's live outside. He said, pull hard. "(see Gui You Ben 10 1 back).
This paragraph is a bit of a second beat.
Just look at the plot text, dialogue tone, words and sentences of Gui You Ben extracted from the above paragraphs, and then read any of the first 80 chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions at will. I think it is not difficult for any reader who has read A Dream of Red Mansions more than once to draw a conclusion about which is true and which is false. To say that such a shoddy book "is mostly the author's original intention, the style is consistent, and the plot is not divorced from the previous work." More importantly, most of the characters' judgments and "abnormal" comments have been verified, and there is no doubt that they are true "(this is from the article" Old True Books Emerge, A Dream of Red Mansions Collapses "), which is really ridiculous and generous.
The article A Dream of Red Mansions WeChat Subscription No.2065438+The Story of Wu Shi Breaking Three Views published on March 5, 2008 mentioned that your book has no charm of a Dream of Red Mansions in terms of text or plot.
To sum up, this Gui You edition, which was first circulated on the Internet, is not an "authentic edition" at all. No matter the plot, words and poems, they are all improved step by step with simplified characters on the internet, which can be found from the changes of their contents released year by year. This is undoubtedly an online spoof written by modern people, confusing the audience in the name of the ancients and seeking fame.
Mr. Mei Jie once said that there is a rule in A Dream of Red Mansions that must be observed, that is, counterfeiting is not allowed. If Redology is allowed to "raise horses", Redology will become "coaxing". Seriously! However, it is intolerable that the so-called Gui You will carry out the fraud to the end, challenging the patience limits of Redology researchers and readers again and again. Such a fake book is not a dream of red mansions at all, let alone Cao Xueqin's dream of red mansions, but an out-and-out contemporary online fake, naked book and non-existent book. Gui You Ben's fans made up the first lie, so they had to make up another hundred lies to round up the first lie. I can even assert that there will never be any so-called "authentic book" whether it is a book or a history. Gui You Ben's fans are fascinated by this so-called "version" source, just to keep its mystery and let the lies spread all the time.
But a lie is a lie after all, and it will be exposed by smart people. As a fan of A Dream of Red Mansions, we must not allow them to run amok like this, and we also hope that readers will keep their eyes open and identify themselves, and stay away from this so-called "original".
[Anhui Netease Fuyang User]
I joined this group on 20 10, and the owner claimed to be the discoverer. This group touts how awesome this sequel is all day. But I studied in Fuyang Teachers College in 2009, and my graduation thesis was about a dream of red mansions. I have never heard this book mentioned by my thesis advisor in those years. According to the truth, since it is a new sequel, it is of great significance, but not only did the local academic groups of Fu Teachers College say it, but no one mentioned the academic paper of A Dream of Red Mansions that I consulted when I wrote my thesis in 2009! I heard about it in the post bar one year after graduation. This so-called notebook manuscript contains only two blurred photos sent by the owner himself, and the cover picture is still very poor. The discussion in the whole group was based on the fact that the group owner sent a log to his space every few days at that time, which was euphemistically called finishing. Anyone with a little common sense knows that the study of literary works requires at least the official text of A Dream of Red Mansions, not to mention a lot of audio-visual copies of manuscripts. At least you have to have a revised edition of People's Literature Publishing House, right? I asked the shopkeeper, and guess what he said? "Notebooks are too precious to take out easily," he later said, and his relatives brought them back to Taiwan Province Province! Haha, gentlemen, look at what this is.
