Jia: The title is "Re-evaluation of Stone by Zhi Yanzhai", which Hu Shi bought in Shanghai 1927. 1962 After Hu Shi's death, he was sent to Cornell University Library in the United States, and now it is collected by Shanghai Museum. This book has only pages 1 to 8, 13 to 16, 25 to 28 and * * * 16, many of which are incomplete.
This is the earliest existing manuscript of A Dream of Red Mansions, but this manuscript is early, which means that the manuscript based on the year is the earliest. In the first paragraph of the title of the book, there is a sentence that "The Story of the Stone is still used after reading and commenting on Red Yanzhai JOE", so the academic circles determine the age of the manuscript, so it is called JOE for short.

Compared with the old version of A Dream of Red Mansions directed by 1987 Wang Fulin, the biggest difference between the new version and the old version is 80 years later-the plot of the old version of A Dream of Red Mansions after 80 years was shot according to the lost result of A Dream of Red Mansions. The different versions of the two shots involve a big branch of the research field of A Dream of Red Mansions: the version of A Dream of Red Mansions.
