Chen Yinque has a clear explanation of the research fields and methods of Wang Guowei's historical research. First, Wang Guowei's research on Oracle Bone Inscriptions. Oracle bone inscriptions were discovered in the late Qing Dynasty and were first discovered by Wang. Later, Liu E published "Hidden Tortoise in Iron Clouds". Subsequently, Sun Zhirang and Luo Zhenyu studied Oracle Bone Inscriptions. Wang Guowei is the first person in Oracle Bone Inscriptions who evolved from philology to historiography. He is the author of A Textual Research on Oracle Inscriptions in Yin Ruins, A Continuation of Oracle Inscriptions in Yin Ruins, On the System of Yin and Zhou Dynasties, A Textual Research on Oracle Inscriptions in Yin Ruins, A New Proof of Ancient History, etc. He compared Oracle Bone Inscriptions, an underground material, with China Ancient History Book, a paper material, corrected the mistakes recorded in the book with Oracle Bone Inscriptions, and made an in-depth study. He himself called this method of textual research "double certificate method", that is, comparing underground materials with paper materials to verify the true image of ancient history. This textual research method not only inherits the textual research tradition of Ganjia school, but also draws lessons from the scientific textual research method of western positivism, organically combines the two, opens up new fields and creates new methods, and has made great achievements in the study of ancient history. Guo Moruo once praised: "Wang Guowei ... left us the products of his knowledge, just like the castle in Cui Wei, which has been shining strangely on the barriers of the old school for thousands of years." Wang Guowei believes that the first realm of scholarship: "The west wind withered the green trees last night. A person who climbs a high-rise building looks at the horizon. This expression reflects Yan Shu's "butterfly love flowers". Originally, it was said that what he saw when he climbed a high-rise building was more of a whispering autumn scenery, with yellow leaves in the west wind and vast mountains and long waters. What case is it? In Wang Guowei's words, a learned and successful person must first have persistent pursuit, climb high and look far, have a bird's eye view of the path, make clear the goal and direction, and understand the general situation of things. This is naturally to exploit the topic and see the big picture from the small. If interpreted according to the original words, these words are the accumulation and brewing period of feelings, and they are a kind of foreshadowing for the following "looking to the end of the world". This state of drinking is the stage when the alcohol content rises slightly after drinking a few cups. At this time, happy people are happier, and worried people are more worried. But they have a thousand words in their stomachs, and there is not much "gentle breeze and drizzle" on the surface. At this stage of irrigation, novice fish who have just "contacted" the Internet can't type fast, have no technical knowledge and can't fight. Therefore, both BBS and chat rooms are generally "modest", and they dare not make a big fight to pour water, and most of them are "novices on the road, take care of more", which is more "polite" and "sensible". However, the mentality and qualifications from "novice fish" to "irrigation expert" have gradually grown up at this stage.
Wang Zhixue's second realm is that "I don't regret the wider the clothes, and I am haggard for Iraq." This sentence is the last two sentences in Liu Yong's Dead Hua Lian in the Northern Song Dynasty. The original words show the author's hardships and regrets about love. It is also acceptable to understand the word "Yi" as the ideal pursued by the poet and the career he has been engaged in all his life. Wang Guowei has ulterior motives. These two sentences are compared to great career and university questioner. They are not easy to get, they must be firm. After some efforts, they forgot to eat and sleep until they lost bandwidth, and they regretted it. This is of course the genius of Wang Guowei. Then the realm of drinking is that the wine is full of fragrance, the heart is full of flowers and the face is rosy. At this stage, the cup flies and the cup is handed over. When it comes to "feeling", it is the rhetoric: "Fuck! Drink, water, drink, get drunk, pour, sleep and fuck! " "It's rare to get drunk several times in life" and "Don't stop until you get drunk for a few autumn". Anyway, it is the momentum of crazy talk, spitting and splashing. At this stage of irrigation, the "young bird" has gradually developed wings and a hard iron beak, and has evolved into an "eagle falcon" level, and its typing speed is very fast. Forums and chat rooms also talk about "familiarity", and when they are quiet, they are like a virgin, "pointing out the mountains and rivers, inspiring words", "just a classmate and teenager, in full bloom" and "the soil was in Wan Huhou that year". They move like taking off a rabbit, ah, ha, ha, ha, pulling and scaring, and all kinds of moves come out. The Three Gorges burst its banks and water overflowed Jinshan. It's like "you want to rule the world, and now the world will give up who I am."
Wang Zhixue's third realm is to say, "There are thousands of people looking for him, and suddenly looking back, people are there, and the lights are dim." It is the last four sentences in Xin Qiji's Jade Case in the Southern Song Dynasty. Liang Qichao called this word "self-pity and loneliness, and sad people have their own arms." This is a metaphor, which has nothing to do with literary appreciation. Wang Guowei has already made it clear that "you can get involved without working". He regards the last four sentences of this word as the third "realm", that is, the ultimate highest realm. Although this is not Xin Qiji's original intention, it can also lead to a long-term vision. To reach the third realm, a scholar and a great career must have a dedicated spirit, pursue research repeatedly and work hard. Naturally, they will suddenly understand, discover and invent, and then they can enter the realm of freedom from the realm of necessity. Extending this aspect, Wang Guowei's cleverness has to be said. Then, the drinker drinks the realm of "suddenly looking back, people are there, and the lights are dim". Strictly speaking, wine at that time was no longer wine, but a kind of "spirit". Long song was crying, drunk as a wakeful, prosperous and impetuous.
