Chapter 613 Rosicrucian Manifesto

The science fiction theme exhibition hall built in Jiangyang has been capped, but the capping has just begun. The project may take some time to complete. As for the official opening, it may have to wait until next year.

It won’t be until the end of the year at the earliest.

Zhang Zhong and others can wait, but Jiangyang City Government cannot wait.

The results of the bid for next year's World Science Fiction Convention will be announced at this year's World Science Fiction Convention, and the time for this year's World Science Fiction Convention has already been set, August 20th.

There are only two and a half months left.

There is not much time left for Jiang Yang.

Therefore, in order to speed up the opening of the museum, the Jiangyang Municipal Government gave Zhang Zhong and others the green light at every turn.

Chen Qing listened to Zhang Zhong's words before and handed the list of exhibits needed for the exhibition hall to the municipal government.

As expected, the city government was even more anxious than Zhang Zhong and the others, and after getting the list, they were busy contacting them.

In just one month, one-fifth of the items on the list have been ordered.

The idea of ​​the city government is very simple. First, make a prototype. Try to get whatever exhibits you can get. If you can't get them, you can temporarily find other things to replace them.

After the rough look is figured out, they can shoot a promotional video.

As long as this promotional video comes out, everything will be solved.

There is no rush to open the museum then. Anyway, they are applying to host next year's World Science Fiction Convention. As long as they can get it before next year's World Science Fiction Convention, it will be no problem.

Zhang Zhong understood the Jiangyang Municipal Government, so he asked Chen Qing to cooperate with them as much as possible.

Of course, it is human nature to take the opportunity to ask the city government to help you a little.



"My course is an open-book exam, so you can bring whatever you want." Zhang Zhong stood on the podium and said with a smile.

"Teacher, can I really bring anything?"

"Of course there is a limit. What you bring must be something that can fit on your desk. As long as your desk can accommodate it, you can bring anything."

"What about bringing a mobile phone and a computer?" a student asked.

"sure."

"Can I bring my cat?"

Zhang Chong smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as you can ensure that it won't affect others."

"Teacher, what questions do you want to take the test? Why are the conditions so relaxed?"

"I can't tell you this. As for why the conditions are so loose, it's because I know that even if you bring something, it will be useless. In addition, you can learn from things you find online, but don't quote a lot. If the overlap is too high,

I might just give you a fail." After talking about the exam, Zhang Zhong said again, "This is the last class of this semester, and you will enter the exam month next, and we should not be able to meet until the start of the next semester.

"

"Teacher, no, I've already bought a plane ticket for your autograph session."

"Then I'll see you then, but don't think that I'll give you a pass, and if you don't do well in the exam, I won't give you an autograph even if you line up then."

The students in the class all laughed.

"Qi Sheng, you have to take the exam well this time, otherwise won't your air tickets be in vain?"

"It's all in vain, isn't it just a tourist trip?"

Zhang Zhong patted the table and said, "Pay attention to classroom discipline. There are still ten minutes left in this class. Let's draw a perfect end to this semester's courses. If you have any questions about what we just talked about, you can ask them now.

"

Those who just said they wanted to follow Zhang Zhong’s autograph signing said in unison, “Teacher, why don’t you tell us about “The Da Vinci Code”. We have read this book and are very interested in many things in it, and there are many

Confuse."

Zhang Zhong looked around and said, "You all want to hear it too?"

Most students nodded.

"Okay then, I'll just talk casually and try to fool these ten minutes." Zhang Zhong tapped his fingers on the table, thinking about where to start. After a while, he patted his forehead and said, "I'll give it to you."

Please tell me about the Rosicrucian Manifesto."

The students were refreshed. Rosicrucianism was indeed mentioned in "The Da Vinci Code", but it was not explained in detail.

"In the seventeenth century, a concept similar to 'the Inquisition went hand in hand with the Catholic army, trying to eradicate all traces of the Rosicrucians' was quietly spreading in Europe. First in Germany, and then spread to England. In 1614, the first so-called "

The Rosicrucian Declaration was published, and another was published the following year. The publication of these declarations caused a sensation at the time, and both the Catholic Church and the Jesuits were furious. However, they also received strong and enthusiastic support from the liberal factions in European Protestant countries.

User. One of the most influential Rosicrucian advocates was called Robert Fludd..."

Zhang Zhong began to tell the students about the "Rosicrucian Manifesto". He did not compile it himself, but said it based on the "Holy Blood and Holy Grail" he had read before.

"Holy Blood and Holy Grail" is a relatively serious "novel". Of course, some people read it as a history book.

When it comes to "The Da Vinci Code", we have to mention "The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail".

Because "The Da Vinci Code" does borrow ideas from "Holy Blood and Holy Grail".

Moreover, the authors of "Holy Blood and Holy Grail" once took Dan Brown to court, claiming that "The Da Vinci Code" plagiarized "Holy Blood and Holy Grail".

However, the authors of "Holy Blood and Holy Grail" lost the case.

In fact, this situation is indeed unsuccessful, because the definition of plagiarism is generally based on the plot and specific description, rather than a certain idea. In general, the law only protects how to express the idea, but not the idea itself.

Although the two books have such small stories, it does not affect the influence of the two books themselves.

If "The Da Vinci Code" intends to reveal the secret while telling the story, and the secret is also revealed for the purpose of telling the story, then "The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail" is more like a complete reveal.

As for whether the secrets revealed in this book are true or false, no one can be sure.

However, when Zhang Zhong talked about the Rosicrucian Declaration, he only synthesized some information that could be verified in history and told the students without expressing other opinions. The students would have their own understanding after listening to it.

Ten minutes was certainly not enough to finish the "Rosicrucian Manifesto". When the bell rang, Zhang Zhong stopped.

"Teacher, keep talking, there are no classes anymore anyway."

The students were listening with great interest, but they didn't expect Zhang Zhong to suddenly pull the switch, and couldn't help but beg Zhang Zhong to continue talking.

"In class, do what you should do in class, and after class, do what you should do after class. You have to go to eat, and I have to go home. If you are interested in what I just said, you can check the information online, maybe

You can also discover some things I didn't talk about." Zhang Zhong smiled, picked up the lesson plan and went out. On the last day of the semester, he still maintained his good habit of not procrastinating in class.
