Chapter 816 Wang Tong’s Wonderful Journey (Part 2)
"Do you want to flip through this book with your own hands and see what's inside?"
Hearing Zhu Qizhen's words, Wang Tong, who was unprepared in advance, couldn't help but be slightly startled.
But soon.
After Wang Tong came back to his senses, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhu Qizhen beside him:
"Mr. Zhu, what did you say? Can I read the "Yongle Dadian"?"
Zhu Qizhen nodded, smiled lightly and spread his hands towards Wang Tong:
"Of course, Mr. Wang, after all, this is a cultural relics exhibition with a high-tech theme."
"If a digital person like me can appear in front of you, reading the "Yongle Dadian" doesn't seem to be a particularly bizarre thing, right?"
Wang Tong was stunned again when he heard this.
It seems... makes some sense?
As Zhu Qizhen said, even a digital person like him can be reproduced and appear in a head-mounted display device, so it is not technically difficult to allow tourists to "touch" "Yongle Dian" through technology.
It's just that Wang Tong didn't think of this level until Zhu Qizhen pointed out the reason - after all, most exhibitions do not allow tourists to touch cultural relics, and many exhibition halls even do not allow tourists to touch the glass of the display cabinets.
Especially now that the quality of the nation is gradually improving, many tourists will take the initiative to keep a certain distance from the exhibits even if they do not need to be reminded by the museum.
This kind of behavior cannot be described as a derogatory term like stereotype, but there is still no problem in classifying it into subconscious categories.
"..."
Then Wang Tong and Zhang Ying looked at each other, then turned to look at Zhu Qizhen:
"Mr. Zhu, how can I get "Yongle Dadian"? Is it also a matter of clicking the virtual button?"
Having said that, Wang Tong still scanned around the display cabinet, trying to find the flashing prompt button.
When he thought about it, the method of obtaining "Yongle Dian" should be the same as changing the tour guide image before, that is, clicking on a virtual button around the showcase, and then "Yongle Dian" suddenly appeared in his hand.
But what surprised Wang Tong was that Zhu Qizhen shook his head this time.
Then Ming Yingzong pointed at the glass of the showcase in front of Wang Tong and said:
"Mr. Wang, "Yongle Dadian" does not have a virtual key. You only need to open the showcase glass to take it out."
Wang Tong and Zhang Ying:
"?????"
Wang Tong suddenly felt that he had transformed into the holy body of innate ignorance today, either raising question marks or on the way to raising question marks.
Open the glass showcase?
What the hell is this?
You should know that Zhu Qizhen specifically emphasized during the introduction that what is stored in the showcase is the original version of "Yongle Dadian", not a replica or a copy.
Not to mention that the book in front of Wang Tong is the first volume of the more than 10,000 volumes of "Yongle Dadian", which is more special in meaning than some other volumes.
Not to mention that this kind of treasure, which can be called a national-level treasure, is not easy to get hold of, just allowing the display cabinet to be opened is very outrageous...
However, Zhu Qizhen on the side did not explain too much, but pretended to be a quiet and handsome man with an unpredictable smile on his face.
"..."
After a few seconds, Zhang Ying gently poked Wang Tong with her elbow:
"Wang Tong, since everyone has said so, let's try it?"
Upon seeing this, Wang Tong pondered for a moment and then nodded:
"good."
Then Wang Tong came to the showcase, held the edge of the showcase glass with both hands and rubbed it a few times, feeling a cold touch on his fingertips.
Wang Tong's understanding of the glass industry is relatively limited, but he can clearly feel that the glass of the showcase is more "transparent" and the temperature is lower than ordinary glass.
It's late spring and early summer now, and this cold feedback feels very comfortable.
Then Wang Tong quickly found two small handles for lifting on both sides, and lifted it up with a little force with both hands.
Click——
The glass cabinet opened upwards in response to the sound, and stopped automatically when it reached an angle of approximately 30° with the horizontal plane.
The only barrier between Wang Tong and "Yongle Dadian" disappeared.
Wang Tong turned his head and looked at Zhu Qizhen again. Under Zhu Qizhen's encouraging eyes, he slowly stretched out his hand and reached for the first volume of "Yongle Dadian" in front of him.
A second later, Wang Tong's pupils suddenly shrank.
In the headset, his left index finger happened to touch the middle of the cover of the first volume of "Yongle Dadian", but in reality, his fingers... also felt the unique rough touch of ancient books!
In other words...
At this time, his fingers touched something real!
Wang Tong's little heart suddenly jumped, and in a short period of time, countless thoughts passed through his mind.
There was surprise, excitement, joy, and even a little worry - what if you meet some crazy person and take this opportunity to tear up the "Yongle Dadian"?
However, these thoughts only passed by in a flash. Wang Tong quickly brought his mind back to reality and held up the "Yongle Dadian" with great solemnity.
The size of 30X23 requires Wang Tong to hold it with his palm in order to hold it safely. After placing it in front of him, the condition of the book becomes clearer:
The four characters of "Yongle Dadian" in the upper left corner are written in a dignified and elegant style. Among them, the one under "乐" is a little faded, and there is a small white break in the middle of "Dian".
The paper used for the pages of the book is not the rice paper that Wang Tong is familiar with, but a finer white tissue paper. There are also samples of this kind of handmade paper in the small collection of Yau Shing Tong Mathematics Center, so Wang Tong can judge its material by touching it.
Then Wang Tong gently opened the cover of the book, and the next second, a paragraph of text appeared in front of him:
[In the past, the sage kings governed the world by exploring the ways of accomplishing things, tailoring the best ways to assist the ministers, cultivating rituals and music to clarify education, elucidating principles and promoting humanities. From the time of Fuxi, he began to draw the Eight Diagrams to understand the virtues of the gods.
, imitating the sentiments of all things, he made a book deed and governed it by easy knotting of ropes. The Shennong clan benefited the grassroots and taught the world. The Yellow Emperor and the Yao and Shun clan made changes to it, so that the people would not be tired of it. God transformed it and made it suitable for the people.
Clothes rule the world...]
[After counting the saints, and the production was ready, he praised the Preface to the Book of Changes, revised the "Spring and Autumn Annals", gathered the great achievements of the saints, talked about the merits of the work, and then there were wiser than the author. The decline of the Zhou Dynasty was close to the Warring States. However, people have different opinions, and the traces of the king have been extinguished. Up to the Qin Dynasty, there has been the disaster of burnt ban, but this way has been eliminated...]
[I inherited Hongji, and thought about it again. Only when there is great confusion, there must be a unified production, so the politics of Qi are the same as the customs. I preface the biographies of a hundred kings, summarize the canons of past dynasties, and worship Mian from afar. A brief compilation Fan Huo, always aware of the difficulty, ordered the minister of literature to compile the books in the four treasuries and purchase the relics from all over the world. From the beginning of ancient times to the present day, he searched widely, gathered groups, and wrote classics. ...]
[It is comprehensive from beginning to end, including the vastness of the universe, and integrating the similarities and differences between the past and the present. It is detailed and clear, and it is clear and clear. The rest of the words of the Ying family are also attached, and the net is completely covered for storage and examination, so as to make people understand. The characters are based on the rhyme, and the words are used to test things. They flow from their own origin, like a swan being shot. The book is opened and nothing is hidden. It started in the autumn of the first year and was completed in the winter of the fifth year, totaling 22,900 One hundred and thirty-seven volumes, called..."Yongle Dadian"]
A few minutes later.
Wang Tong closed the book with emotion on his face, exhaled a long breath, and looked at Zhu Qizhen aside:
"Mr. Zhu, how on earth is this... done?"
As an extremely pure science student, Wang Tong's literary skills are just that, to be honest, and the contents of this "Yongle Dadian" can only be roughly understood.
Therefore, what really made him feel magical was the process of his contact with "Yongle Dadian".
He still doesn't understand what happened during that period, and what happened to the book in his hand?
He saw with his own eyes the Yongle Dadian he took out from the showcase. The showcase was completely empty at this time, but logically he did not believe that what he was holding was the original "Yongle Dadian".
Therefore, some manipulations must have been done in the whole process, but Wang Tong could not find the corresponding link.
This kind of entanglement is really too much torture for a math practitioner like him...
Upon hearing Wang Tong's question, Zhu Qizhen first tapped the palm of his left hand with his right index finger, and then pointed to his eyes:
"Mr. Wang, the answer to this question is simple. Your eyes and your body have deceived you."
Wang Tong was suddenly startled:
"?"
Upon seeing this, Zhu Qizhen thought for a while and said to Wang Tong:
"Mr. Wang, with the authorization from the switchboard, the backend will temporarily cancel the modeling of showcase No. 1 in your headset."
"That way you can see what's really going on."
"Of course, the digital human tour guide will still not disappear, and you and I can still communicate normally."
Say it.
Zhu Qizhen snapped his fingers, and the picture in front of Wang Tong suddenly changed slightly - his field of vision became a little brighter.
Wang Tong subconsciously looked at the "Yongle Dadian" in his hand, and then he was stunned again:
The size of the "Yongle Dadian" he held in his hand remained unchanged, but all the words on the book disappeared.
For some reason, Wang Tong inexplicably thought of the scene in Journey to the West, where the four masters and disciples of Tang Monk retrieved the scriptures and embarked on their way home, only to discover that the scriptures were all wordless heavenly books...
In fact, what surprised Wang Tong was far more than this. He also noticed that there was another "Yongle Dadian" stored in the display cabinet in front of him!
This "Yongle Dadian" looks exactly like the book in Wang Tong's hand, but it is stored lower than what can be seen with Wang Tong's headset, and there is a layer of glass inside the display cabinet.
In other words.
In addition to the top layer of glass, this showcase also has a second layer of glass baffles inside to block the real "Yongle Dian".
Seeing a hint of understanding on Wang Tong's face, Zhu Qizhen on the side also spoke:
"Miss Zhang, it's your turn to pick up the first volume of "Yongle Dadian" next."
As soon as Zhu Qizhen finished speaking, a slender opening suddenly opened on the left side of the glass showcase.
I saw a chassis holding a "Yongle Dadian" quickly protruding from it, and placing the "Yongle Dadian" on the glass baffle on the second floor.
Seeing this, Zhang Ying suddenly exclaimed in surprise:
"Hey, why is there another copy of "Yongle Dadian" in the display case?"
Then.....
Wang Tong saw his girlfriend humming as she stepped forward to pick up the "Yongle Dadian" and started flipping through the wordless book with great interest.
Wang Tong:
"...."
Then Zhu Qizhen snapped his fingers again, and the scene in front of Wang Tong returned to the original picture - the "Yongle Dadian" in the display cabinet disappeared, and the second layer of glass baffle was also missing. Zhang Ying and
The "Yongle Dadian" in Wang Tong's hand is full of words again...
Seeing that Wang Tongruo had some realization, Zhu Qizhen also smiled at him:
"Mr. Wang, do you understand now?"
Wang Tong nodded slightly.
Zhu Qizhen did not lie at first, and what was stored in the showcase was indeed the original version of "Yongle Dadian".
At the same time, Wang Tong's previous judgment was not wrong, and the "Yongle Dadian" he obtained was also not authentic.
It's just...Wang Tong's eyes and body deceived him.
Now that he has witnessed the whole process with his own eyes, Wang Tong naturally understands the methods of the National Expo:
The entire showcase was originally designed with two layers of glass. The first layer is the cabinet glass, and the second layer is the internal protective facilities. The real first volume of "Yongle Dadian" is placed on the booth below the second layer.
At the same time, some optical designs were made at the beginning of the design of the exhibition cabinet, and combined with the modeling of the MR headset, it gave visitors an illusion when viewing the exhibition - there is no second layer of glass in the exhibition cabinet, and "Yongle Dadian"
》The area where the first volume is stored should be higher than the actual location...that is, where the second layer of glass is.
In this situation.
When the visitor reaches out to open the showcase, the sensing device on the glass and the sampling radar of the head-mounted display perform auxiliary judgment at both ends. Before the visitor reaches into the showcase, a mechanical tray is used to pop out the wordless words from the closed area on the other side.
A copy of "Yongle Dadian".
Due to the sound insulation effect of the full-face helmet equipment, all the sounds when the mechanical pallet is closing and entering are blocked outside the equipment, and even the image of the mechanical pallet is erased.
Then wait for the content to be delivered through the head-mounted display while the visitor is reading the content, and you can simulate the illusion of picking up "Yongle Dian" with your own hands.
No wonder Zhu Qizhen said something like "Your eyes and your body deceived you together". The whole process was completely like a civet cat for a prince in front of Wang Tong and the others...
Then Wang Tong was silent for a while and said to Zhu Qizhen:
"Mr. Zhu, I have a question that I'm a little confused about."
Zhu Qizhen made a gesture of invitation towards him:
"You say."
Wang Tong raised the "Yongle Dadian" in his hand towards him and asked:
"Why does the National Museum spend so much effort to create a cover-up? Wouldn't it be simpler to just copy a copy?"
