Chapter 1363 – Chinese Classics and Feudalism Teachings

Wind and Rain Chinese Classics Essay Cup is open for registration, and something unexpected happened during the promotion.

“What Chinese Classic literature?! That’s spreading superstitious beliefs. This is feudalism!” A writer who claimed to be an American Chinese wrote in the papers.

China’s ancient deities are all fake and teach people to reap without sowing. All the Chinese classics are talking about demons and ghosts, scholars falling in love with female ghosts, and more are talking about fox spirits. This is evidence that those people are lecherous!

This is the 21st century, and how can they promote feudalism teachings? What are they trying to do?

Many Chinese Government cultural departments, newspaper agencies, publishers, and universities will hold this competition now, which reflects civilization regression. Especially Feng Yu, the person who started this!

What does a businessman, who stank of money, knows about literature?! He is just trying to attract attention and use it to make money!

…….

Feng Yu puts down his newspaper. He can’t remember who this person is, Xue Hai Fan Zhou. He didn’t remember offending such a person.

“Zhigang, did we offend this person?” Feng Yu asked.

“I also don’t know this person. But that newspaper agency that published his article is not one of our Classic Essay Competition’s partners. It is a private newspaper.” Wu Zhigang explained.

It is not an issue if it is only one newspaper publishing this article. But many other newspaper agencies who are not the organizers started to share online and publish this article.

If it wasn’t for Sina and the major Chinese websites had censored all articles criticizing Feng Yu, the influence will be greater. After all, Sina and the major Chinese websites have high traffic. But another website, Yahoo China, is not under Feng Yu’s control.

“What books did this person read, or does he have any famous articles?”

“He is not famous, and I can’t find him on Baidu.” Wu Zhigang replied.

Wu Zhigang felt this Xue Hai Fan Zhou is trying to attract attention. If he is an American, then he is utterly shameless to try to gain fame in China!

……

Xue Hai Fan Zhou is sitting in front of his PC, looking at the news about his article with a smile. He is going to be famous this time. Using the World’s Richest Man, Feng Yu, as a stepping stone is a great move!

Xue Hai Fan Zhou’s article is published by many newspapers and shared by many online websites. His pen name kept popping up, and searches for him on Baidu are higher than those superstars!

So what if you are the World’s Richest Man?! You will still become my stepping stone to fame.

Most people now are ignorant, and Xue Hai Fan Zhou will get support for whatever he wrote. He is waiting for the organizing committee to retort his article as it will be free publicity.

Xue Hai Fan Zhou is going to release his book after millions of people notice him. Regardless of how badly written his book is, people will still be buying it. He is going to be a best-seller author!

One million copies is not an issue!

That’s right. Xue Hai Fan Zhou has no relation or grudges with Feng Yu, and he is only jealous of Feng Yu’s wealth like many others.

Xue Hai Fan Zhou knows he can never reach Feng Yu’s level even if he wins the lottery every week in his lifetime.

Xue Hai Fan Zhou thought of this idea to use Feng Yu’s fame to increase his reputation. But Feng Yu is too low profile and seldom appears on the news. He couldn’t even find a picture of Feng Yu online. His original plan is to create a digitally altered photo of him and Feng Yu.

When news of the Essay competition is released, Xue Hai Fan Zhou knows he will not win. He had written a book before, but it sold less than 10,000 copies.

So, Xue Hai Fan Zhou came up with this plan to attack this essay competition and Feng Yu to gain fame. He doesn’t care if he gets a good or bad reputation and only wants to be famous. How many Chinese doesn’t know Qin Hui or Empress Dowager Cixi? They are also famous with bad reputations, and the items they used are priceless antiques!

Xue Hai Fan Zhou will become a best-selling author once he becomes famous, and his readers and fans will treat him as a hero who is not afraid of power.

Furthermore, Xue Hai Fan Zhou claimed to be an American Chinese. Feng Yu will not dare to go against the Americans because of the international diplomatic relationship.

…….

As expected, some people start to retort Xue Hai Fan Zhou’s article.

“Chinese Classics are not like what Xue Hai Fan Zhou mentioned. Putting the four classic masterpieces aside, Hua Mulan is another classic. Tang and Song Dynasty poetries are also masterpieces. Confucianism is also teaching us to be kind-hearted, brave, wisdom….”

Such articles started appearing online, and most of them are written by universities’ Professors and famous scholars. How dare a Chinese American attack China’s tradition and culture?!

It’s fine if you have evidence to support your argument. But you are quoting out of context and generalizing all the classics!

The universities’ Professors and scholars did not realize they are helping Xue Hai Fan Zhou gain fame when they retort.

No one notices this except for Feng Yu. But he did not stop it because this will also increase the popularity of this writing competition. This is better than news about the organizing committee’s universities and the Professors on the judging panel.

Feng Yu decides to let them debate and argue, as he believes those Professors will win.

Feng Yu is more concerned about Xue Hai Fan Zhou’s information. He traced his IP address and found out who is this person. But he did not call the Police to arrest him.

Feng Yu only let his men secretly released Xue Hai Fan Zhou’s information to the reporters and let these people expose him!
