"Hey, the gate of Dongda University looks similar to the gate of our Phoenix University!"
After getting off the car and seeing the maroon door, the members of the Fengda University delegation started talking about it.
"This is the location of the old gate of the original campus, the Maroon Gate. It was originally the place where the feudal lord welcomed family members in the Edo period. The gate was painted vermilion. After being damaged by the Tokai Earthquake and World War II, it was designated by the country in 1949.
It is a key cultural relic. It was renovated in 1991, and now the red door is synonymous with our Dongjing University." Seeing the reactions of the students, the beautiful student emcee introduced it with a smile.
"Because our exchange this time is mainly based on the historical and cultural exchanges between the two countries, we, Dongda University, have decided to let students from friendly countries enter through this gate to kick off the cultural exchanges between the two countries.
." The sweet voice of the beautiful student emcee made many boys seem to forget it.
In front of the Zaohong Gate, a group of people were welcoming them. Banners were hung on both sides of the old school gate, with the same welcome slogan written in Japanese and Chinese characters.
While they were listening to the sweet voice of the emcee, Feng Quedi, Jiang Jinzheng, Professor Xu and others had already met the leaders of Dongda University who greeted them at the door. They were nothing more than "frightened" and "inadequate care".
Qin Xiang and others, as students, naturally no longer care about such nonsense.
The golden ginkgo leaves are the most distinctive scenery of Dongda. After entering Dongda and having a grand welcome ceremony, the group spent a morning visiting Dongda accompanied by school leaders and student representatives.
In the afternoon, representatives from both sides discussed the contents of the summit exchanges, including the large Zaohongmon campus and the new campus in Komaba, Meguro Ward. On the second day, representatives from both sides introduced the culture and history of their countries to deepen their understanding of each other.
, the formal exchange and debate summit will be arranged in the morning of the third day.
As the schedule was arranged, the time quietly slipped to noon the next day. Since Dongda University held a welcome event the night before, Qin Xiang had no way to go to Lan Yufeng that night.
"Phew, I really can't stand it." Coming out of a large classroom, the students representing Fengda University all looked very ugly.
"I have seen shameless people, I have never seen such shameless people!" Yang Rui cursed: "They actually regard the characters of their island country as the mother source of writing, saying that many Chinese characters come from their island country.
It was developed from words, it’s really shameless.”
"That's right, I think those historical materials are most likely fabricated. It's no wonder they have the shamelessness to introduce them." A fat girl said angrily.
"It's useless for everyone to scold here. Now both sides hold different opinions. We believe that the origin of Chinese characters is Chinese characters, but they think that the origin of Chinese characters is island nations. Therefore, the first debate topic is born. We
We only have half a day to prepare in the afternoon and evening. Tomorrow morning will be the real start of the war.
"We cannot afford to miss this first exchange and debate. Although this is just a debate-style confrontation and cannot serve as a reference for the origin of the two countries' writing, as an open exchange and debate, it is bound to set off a cultural revolution.
In a big wave, the loser will be hit hard and have far-reaching consequences." Professor Xu stopped the students' complaints and said seriously.
Xi Feixuan said: "Just now our team members met and came up with a plan, that is, forty-two people are divided into two groups, one group is for the positive side, and the other group is for the negative side. In the afternoon, we will collect information and prepare
"In the evening, each of our two groups sent five representatives. We first conducted a mock debate and tried to find out the difficult issues that may be encountered in the debate."
Jiang Jinzheng nodded and said: "Secretary Xi is right. We have already divided into groups. Now let's allocate tasks. The first and third groups form a group, which is Zhengfang. Zhengfang's point of view is: the island nation's writing originated from China; the third group is Zhengfang.
The second and fourth combinations form a group, which is the negative side. The negative side’s point of view is that the mother source of Chinese characters is the island country.
"The library of Dongda University will be open to our Hua Xia Feng University delegation during the exchange meeting. If you need to find any information, you can go to the library of Dongda University at any time. I hope that students... (omit thousands of nonsense) Okay, now students
You can prepare in groups.”
Qin Xiang and Yan Lin were both assigned to the opposition group. For them, the information on hand was far from enough. Therefore, after lunch, half of their group went to the library to search for information on this topic.
"Qin Xiang, what do you think about this debate topic? What do you think our chances of winning are?" Yan Lin asked worriedly on the way to the library.
From the importance Professor Xu paid to Qin Xiang's opinions in the past two days, Yan Lin and others naturally knew that Qin Xiang held an extremely important position in Professor Xu Baijin's heart. This was definitely not unreasonable. In this regard, Qin Xiang was definitely
There is something extraordinary about it.
"About 60%." Qin Xiang smiled calmly: "But as long as it is not a 100% chance of winning, any variables are possible. Therefore, the information aspect is very important to us. We will go to the library soon and try to find some useful literature and history.
If we have more information and know more about the history of the island country, we will have more confidence."
"Classmate Qin Xiang, do you think Dongda University will cheat?" Yang Rui suddenly asked.
"Cheating?" Qin Xiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "You mean, their library may collect relevant information in this area, so that we, the Chinese side, will gain little in the library?"
Yang Rui nodded and said: "That's right. It's said that if you know yourself and the other party, you will win every battle. They have the advantage of home field. This debate question must have been prepared by them a long time ago. If they had hidden the relevant information in advance,
For us, it is very disadvantageous.”
Qin Xiang smiled and said: "Actually, this is definitely the case. After all, this is their home court, and they have the home court advantage. Even if they did not cheat, because they knew the topic of the debate in advance, their representatives from the previous exchange meeting must have been immersed in their books.
The library has been in the library for a long time. I believe that some important cultural and historical materials may have been borrowed by them long ago."
"Then we can only pick up dead fish? Or maybe they didn't even come to pick up dead fish for us?" Zhou Qingqing also belonged to their group and couldn't help but worry after hearing this.
"That's right. So, don't put too much hope in the Dongda Library. Let's treat this trip to the library as a treasure hunting operation. As for whether we can find useful treasures, it depends on us.
Such luck." Qin Xiang smiled.
After hearing his words, everyone else's expressions became gloomy.
"But don't be discouraged. The Dongda Library has a collection of 7.8 million books. The main library of Dongda Library we are going to now has a collection of 1.1 million books. With such a large collection of books, I don't believe they can
All the important materials were borrowed, because after all, there are many cultural and historical materials with repeated contents. Maybe the main materials were borrowed by their people, but other subsidiary cultural and historical materials are also useful to us.
"So, after everyone goes in, if you can't find any useful main information, you might as well look at some related auxiliary cultural and historical information. Maybe you can find treasures in it." Qin Xiang said with a smile.
Zhou Qingqing smiled and said: "Yes, there are only so many people in Dongda University. I don't believe they can borrow all the relevant information. Unless it is removed from the shelves, there will definitely be treasures left out."
"Not only that, there are more than 60 large and small libraries in Dongda. If we can't find it, we will go to a small and remote library. I don't believe that they will put all libraries in this area."
I borrowed all the books in my collection." Qin Xiang smiled.
Hearing what he said, everyone's confidence was once again aroused.
After a while, they finally arrived at the Dongda Main Library.
The Tokyo University Library was founded in the 18th century. It was completely destroyed by the earthquake in 1923. The new main library was built with the support of the Rockefeller Foundation in 1928. The entire Tokyo University Library includes the main library and more than 60 departments.
The branch library and the main library include the fifth floor above ground and the first underground floor, with an area of 17,850 square meters. There is a library committee under the library, which is responsible for making decisions on library affairs policies for the entire school library.
The most important thing is that the libraries of each department are completely independent in administration, and the main library only handles integration and coordination work. Because of this, Qin Xiang still has some confidence in being able to get the "treasure", even if Dongda really
He knows how to play dirty tricks, but he does not believe that every department branch library will follow the dispatch of the main library and temporarily remove relevant books from the shelves or make them disappear temporarily through other methods.
However, in fact, as they had originally expected, they had not seen almost all important documents about the island nation's writing in the main library. And what made them most depressed was that they had been looking for it for a long time.
In some subsidiary historical materials, very few useful literary and historical materials can be found. For them, it cannot but be said to be a big blow.
"Why doesn't Qin Xiang come out? Do you want to urge him? I can't find it here. Let's go to other departments and branches to look for it. I don't believe it. There are more than 60 departments and branches, but we can't find it.
The required information." Zhou Qingqing said rather unconvinced.
"No need to rush him. Let's first study the location map of the branch of the Dongda Library and plan the location of the next stop. We will wait and see what Qin Xiang gains. If not, we will go directly when he comes."
Yan Lin took a look at the watch and immediately took out the orientation map, and several people started studying it.
Qin Xiang did not search in the grid of literary history categories. He set his sights on a remote grid that few people paid attention to: supernatural!
"City in the Sky?" At the end of that remote square, Qin Xiang was suddenly attracted by a very shabby looking book and couldn't help but reach out to take it.
But at this moment, a slender hand like jade stretched out almost at the same time, but it was a little faster than Qin Xiang's hand, and then Qin Xiang held the small hand.
As gentle as jade, you will be enchanted by the touch of your hand!
(PS: The next few chapters are probably more difficult to write. Xiao Ding needs to design them carefully. Brothers and sisters, please forgive me if they are slow.)
