"Really?" Zhou Zhi said: "Then why I have studied some discussions about writing systems and found that a general Chinese application system requires about 13,000 Chinese characters; while a large-scale Chinese application system requires 20,000 Chinese characters.

There are about 3,000 Chinese characters; the dedicated Chinese application system of government agencies requires about 48,000 Chinese characters; and the Chinese application system used by large libraries may require more than 100,000 Chinese characters?"

"Why is it so exaggerated?" Li Hongjiang is a master of computer information technology, but he is also a half-way monk in Chinese character encoding. He has rich experience in coding algorithms, font programming, function coupling and other technical things. However, a large library needs more than 100,000 Chinese characters.

This concept also completely subverted his cognition.

"It is indeed such an exaggeration." Mr. Gu said: "The Kangxi Dictionary alone has 47,035 Chinese characters. In other words, if our library wants to digitize the Kangxi Dictionary, you have not yet

Of the GB13,000 invested, half of the Chinese characters will not be displayed in the system."

Gu Zhenduo also spoke: "The "Chinese Dictionary" compiled by me also has 56,000 words. If the GB2312 standard is used, it will only be a fraction of it. If the GB13000 standard is used, it will only be a fraction of half."

As an important figure in the History Department, Master Tenzin also participated in this meeting today. At this time, he also said: "Don't forget that our motherland is a multi-ethnic country. In addition to Chinese, there are also Tibetan, Mongolian, Zhuang

There are more than ten languages ​​such as Chinese and Uyghur. The information coding work of these minority languages ​​should also be taken into consideration."

Gu Zhenduo felt that it was a bit excessive. The biggest and most important language has not been solved yet, so he couldn't care about other languages, so he said: "This requirement is too harsh. We have to let the comrades in information technology do it step by step...

…”

"That's not all!" Dan Zeng continued to advance: "In addition to ethnic minority scripts, there are also ancient scripts, such as oracle bone inscriptions. Oracle bone inscriptions are not included. They can be counted as a type of font, but Turkic script, Uighur script, Khotan script

Wen, Xixia wen, these can’t be counted, right?”

"Director Danzeng, let's resolve the main contradiction first, the main contradiction." Director Mai's head was pounding when he heard this: "Let's put aside the secondary contradictions first..."

"No need to put it, there is no solution." Li Hongjiang spread his hands: "The code bits are like boxes for putting characters. There are only so many code bits, so there are only so many characters that can be placed. The GB13000 standard is 21,003 Chinese characters.

, we came up with it after painstaking research.”

"Besides, we have been using GB2312 encoding for so long. Except for some rare characters, it can basically meet our needs. It has been like this for so many years, and now it has been expanded so much that it should meet the vast majority of application scenarios."

"Hahahaha..." When Gu Youwen heard this statement, he couldn't help but not be angry. Instead, he was amused as if he heard an ignorant child say Wuji's children's words: "Xiao Wang is a science student. He used to do mathematics.

Right? So we don’t blame you for having this idea.”

"Let me tell you a historical story."

"Everyone knows the story of Dayu's flood control, right?"

Everyone nodded.

"Does everyone know that Dayu's father, Gun, was killed by Shun in Mount Yu because he failed to control floods?"

This time, less than half of the science participants nodded.

"Dayu's father's name is Gun. There are three ways to write the character Gun. Do you know?"

This time, even the professors in the liberal arts department were confused.

"Elbow, for you." Gu Lao left Zhou Zhi the opportunity to show off.

Zhou Zhi had no choice but to continue: "There are three ways to write the character Gun. One is familiar to everyone, with a fish and a line; the second is a fish and a xuan; the third is a bone and a line."

"Gun is Yu's father. According to legend, he is the son of Zhuanxu. It is said that Zhuanxu's fifth grandson had the surname Si and the courtesy name Xi. He lived in the area of ​​Songshan Mountain in present-day Henan. It was Chongdi at that time, so he was called the Chong family, also known as Chongbo."

"The floods occurred during the Yao period. Gun was recommended by the Four Mountains to control the water. He built embankments to block the water, but failed for nine years. He was killed by Shun on Mount Yu. His son Dayu changed the blockage to dredging, and finally succeeded in controlling the water. Later, he spread the word throughout the world.

Giving birth to his son initiated the era of China's 'family world', which was the Xia Dynasty."

"Lao Gu wanted to tell this story. I think it's because of another uncommon word."

"Many records say that Yao ordered Zhu Rong to kill Gun in Yushan, and Gun turned into Huang Neng and sank into Yuyuan."

"There are many records about this word. "Gui Zang Qi Zhen" says: 'Turn into a yellow dragon.' 'Zuo Zhuan·Zhao Gong's Seventeenth Year' says: 'Turn into a yellow bear.' "Guo Yu·Jin Yu 8" says

:'Become Huang Neng.' "Book of Supplements·Volume 2" says: 'Become a black fish.'"

"Guo Pu of the Jin Dynasty cited "Kai Zhen" and said: 'Gun died at the age of three and was not rotten. He cut it open with a Wu knife and turned it into a yellow dragon.'"

"Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" of the Ming Dynasty said: 'Yellow bear is also a dragon.'"

"Ming Dynasty Chen Shiyuan's "Ming Yi" said: "Gun was granted the title of Chong. "Guoyu" called him Chongbo, "Zuo Zhuan" called him Weibo, and Zheng Zichan called Gun Yushan. He was deified into a yellow bear and entered Yuyuan. Huang

Bear or Yunhuanglong.”

"Which word should it be? In fact, the above statements are all wrong. The way this word is written is that the word "bear" is missing a little bit, and the pronunciation is 'ni'."

"Today's Guangdong Province still retains this word. There is a place called Xiong (Ni) Mountain."

"The evidence is also there. "Historical Records of Xia Benji" Zhengyi also says: "Gun's Yushan Mountain turned into a yellow bear and entered the Yuyuan. The sound of a bear comes and goes in reverse, and the lower three points are three legs." It is very said.

It’s clear.”

"And Shu Xi's "Fa Meng Ji" says: 'The turtle with three legs is called bear, and the turtle with three legs is called bile. Therefore, the word bear is a corruption of the word bear (Ni), and bear is Xiong (Ni)."

"The interpretation of "Zuo Zhuan" says: 'A bear can do as much as a three-legged turtle.'"

"Ren Fang's "Shu Yi Ji" specifically analyzed this word and believed that a creature like Xiong (Ni), 'living on land is called Xiong, and living on water is called Neng.' It should be a beast of the genus Ursus, and it can also live in water."

"But bears cannot enter the abyss, so the explanation of the bear (Ni) as a three-legged turtle is more reasonable."

"The theory that Gun transformed into black fish can be understood as the separation of the word "錌" in another way of writing the ancient word Gun, or as a different pronunciation of the pronunciation of Xiong (Ni)."

Everyone couldn't help but give it a try and found that the pronunciation of "Xuanyu" was really close to "Ni".

"The most important thing is the font. The top is Neng and the bottom is three dots. This should be the evolution of a pictographic character. The three dots exactly represent the three legs of this turtle."

"Now we can almost prove it clearly. Gun, Nuo, (bone system) are all the names of the tribal leaders who lived in the Songshan area at that time. This tribe has a close relationship with fish, and they have a considerable understanding of floods.

, so in the tribal alliance, he was entrusted with the important task of water control."

"We can also derive an association from the word (bone system). In ancient times, people often used a shovel-like tool called a shovel, which was made by tying the shoulder blades of beasts to one end of a wooden stick."

"So can we also tell from this word that Gun is actually a tribe good at using bones?"

"As for the bear (Ni), it is a mythical beast that looks like a turtle, has three legs, and has abilities similar to those of a dragon."
