Core Tip: Recently, Ma Xinchao, president of Henan Poetry Association, issued a statement on the spoof of Du Fu's portrait by netizens, saying that Du Fu's spirit is the spiritual light of the nation, and it is absolutely not allowed to denigrate the image of Du Fu. Ma Xinchao said that to spoof culture and cross culture, there must be no national low line and no spiritual light.
Dahe Net News "Du Fu's spirit is the spiritual light of our nation, and we will never allow to denigrate Du Fu's image." Ma Xinchao, president of Henan Poetry Association, said in an interview.
Du Fu is a great poet in the world, and we should respect and admire him. Now is the age of entertainment, and it may be harmless for netizens to graffiti the portrait of poet Du Fu. It is very inappropriate for netizens to spoof him.
He said that Du Fu was one of the few great poets who waved flags and shouted for the bottom people in the past 300 years. For example, his classic poem "The wine in Zhumen stinks, the bones on the road freeze to death" and "Joy on earth" are all shouting for the bottom people, and his poems can best represent the voices of the bottom people. He is not only the most famous poet in 1300 years, but also one of the most respected poets in the world.
"If someone spoofs Du Fu and maliciously uglifies the image of Du Fu, it shows that he is ignorant, shallow and vulgar." Ma Xinchao said that we will never allow Du Fu's image to be destroyed. To spoof culture and cross culture, we must have a national bottom line and spiritual light. We should respect Du Fu and admire Du Fu's culture, so that our nation can carry forward.
Oppose spoofing Du Fu-prude can't afford to hurt.
Dudu spoofs Du Fu, and he will also feel funny.
Du Fu, the poet saint, became popular on the Internet recently. Some people scribbled illustrations in textbooks and posted them online, which triggered a spoof trend with the theme of "Du Fu is very busy". However, this has attracted criticism that spoofing Du Fu is a manifestation of ignorance, shallowness and vulgarity, which reflects the current disrespectful humanistic confusion. There should be a national bottom line for spoof culture, but spoof can't discredit Du Fu's image. Obviously, it's too exciting to go online like this.
Ma Xinchao, president of Henan Poetry Association, said in an interview that spoof culture cannot be without a national bottom line. This sounds more like a deliberate taboo with China characteristics. In ancient times, people paid attention to "taboo respect, taboo relatives and taboo sages", and even did not mention the names of these people. Therefore, there is an allusion that "only state officials are allowed to set fires and people are not allowed to light lamps", because state officials are called Tiandeng.
However, officials who hold public power and public figures who can control more resources should be prepared to be teased by the public. But in our social concept, this concept is just upside down, and it can do all ugly things for ordinary people, but officials dare not even talk about it.
It is the continuation of this mentality to spoof Du Fu with a "national bottom line". People always think that famous poets should be respected and cared by society. Little did they know that it was this difference between inside and outside that divided people into three categories, which gave people irrefutable natural reasons for officials and celebrities, and also gave convicted words a more legitimate recognition environment.
Ma Xinchao thinks that Du Fu's spirit is the spiritual light of the nation. National spirit is an understandable word, but it is hard to say what it is. The statement of the light of national spirit is puzzling. Under the premise that what is Du Fu's spirit and what is national spirit are not clear, a kind of national spirit suddenly appears, which is a typical performance of his high preference and love of summing up. He always thinks that everything should rise to the height of the nation-state, and that anyone can extract his spirit exclusively.
What is linked to the so-called spirit of Du Fu should be a poem written by Du Fu. If it is Du Fu's spirit to drum and shout for the bottom people, then Du Fu's image should be an orator who dares to criticize the shortcomings of the times. Defaming this image, graffiti can't achieve this magical effect.
The source of "Du Fu is very busy" series of pictures is Du Fu's illustrations in middle school Chinese textbooks. They are just students' graffiti, which can be regarded as a boring gesture after class or a lack of interest in China's ancient poems. Even if it is uploaded to the Internet and arouses onlookers, thus setting off a wave of spoofing Du Fu, there is no need to interpret it online.
It is considered that spoofing Du Fu is ignorant, shallow and vulgar, which is a disease of pretending to have a sense of justice but no sense of humor. It is considered that only reciting Du Fu's poems is a serious matter, and all other irrelevant actions are disrespectful. This innate respect is full of false affectation, and the way of respect is not unique. Poems that respect harmony are not necessarily given for exams. Graffiti spoofs Du Fu everywhere, not necessarily with ulterior motives. All this is just a small wave in the tide of spoofing, so there is no need to enlarge it and grieve.
People who are really dissatisfied with spoofing Du Fu need not worry so much. This kind of thing comes and goes quickly, and the protagonist is changeable. Before I spoofed Du Fu, I also spoofed Li Bai, Guan Hanqing and Xin Qiji, and I didn't see the images of these people, so how ugly they became. The more direct reason why spoofing Du Fu is so popular may only be that Du Fu's illustrations with a sad 45-degree angle in textbooks are more versatile, and graffiti is like everything.
As a popular culture, spoof is also a parasitic culture, which cannot be separated from some popular classic "hosts". It's just a re-creation at this level. Just like "A Bloody Case Caused by a Steamed Bread", which is the first spoof in China, its communication effect only works for people who have seen "The Promise", and the most popular time is only a period of time after the release of "The Promise". Therefore, it is doomed that the spoof will not last long, and netizens will have a temporary fun.
Nostalgic netizens think that graffiti spoofing Du Fu is an insult to traditional culture, which shows the confusion of current humanities. At present, there may really be humanistic confusion, but spoofing Du Fu cannot be fully reflected. Du Fu is just a poet. Whether people have read his poems is the standard to measure whether a person has humanistic quality. But Du Fu's illustrations in graffiti textbooks are not insulting and can't really reflect people's understanding of Du Fu.
Understanding Du Fu is also influenced by poems and people. First moved by his poems, then by his feelings. This point is most directly and obviously reflected in Du Fu's poem "The Cottage Was Blown by Autumn Wind (Weibo)". "Between Andrew's mansion and ten million rooms, all the poor people in the world are smiling! The wind and rain are calm as a mountain. Oh! Suddenly I saw this house in front of me, and I froze to death alone! " This became a famous sentence endorsed by Du Fu at the bottom, and his compassion touched many people. Therefore, there is no need to listen to the argument that Du Fu's image has been vilified because of spoof, thus insulting traditional culture. Status and image can't be shaken by a few graffiti.
On the contrary, the illusion of "Du Fu is very busy" created by graffiti spoof may become an opportunity to further popularize Du Fu and provide an opportunity to make up for humanistic confusion. You know, in the era of shallow reading created by online media, there are very few people who are still reading and reciting poems. Most of them know little about Du Fu, and almost all of them come from several poems they learned in middle school.
At this time, the graffiti Du Fu appeared, which reminded many people of "going up the mountain" in the illustration page: "Leaves fall like the spray of a waterfall, and I watch the long river always roll forward". No matter what the cause of the perpetrator is, it may actually produce new effects. We must also face up to the sad content and gloomy style of Du Fu's poems, which are familiar in middle school, and may not be truly understood. Life changes such as "When I left, you were unmarried and now these boys and girls are in a row" may make middle-aged readers who reread Du Fu's poems feel completely different from their school days.
Netizens who like ancient literature think that it is no problem to entertain the public with characters like Sister Furong and Sister Feng, because they are keen on this kind of hype. The more you make fun of her, the happier she will be. However, spoofing famous ancient poets is tantamount to spoofing ancestors, which is really disrespectful.
This logic hides these two comparisons. One is that people are divided into groups, some people can spoof, and some people can't; The other is to treat the ancients with more respect and tolerance than today. However, this actually confuses the question of whether spoofing can be done. Furong and Xifeng are willing to be teased or even secretly pleased. People resent this kind of spoof being used and become the promoter of creating popularity. However, the aversion to modern people's spoofing elements does not prove that Du Fu cannot be spoofed, and the evaluation of people's misconduct will be wrong. If modern people can do it, why can't the ancients do it?
The average person's impression of Du Fu is that he is poor and bitter, which is also the reason why he spoofed Du Fu and grafted so many modern images, which is completely out of tune with ancient figures and destroyed Du Fu's original image. But the real Du Fu in history is not as austere as he imagined. Du Fu was an official's son, his mother came from Qinghe Cui Shi, a noble family in the Tang Dynasty, and many of his relatives and wives were bureaucratic families. The Du family has many industries. During the period of national peace, it was not a problem for the Du family to live by collecting rent.
Mocking Du Fu did not correct the original image of the characters, but at least it shocked the inherent impression of many people. So Du Fu can still "fuck" like this? In fact, Du Fu is very devoted. Cheng Taoguang, vice chairman of Henan Du Fu Research Association, said that Du Fu in history had a spirit of self-banter and ridicule. For example, Du Fu recalled his childhood poem: I remember I was a child when I was fifteen, as healthy as a yellow calf. Before pears and dates are ripe in August, the tree day can return to a thousand times ... The image of an old urchin suddenly emerges.
The photo of US President Barack Obama kissing Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez was once a poster of an Italian clothing company. The poster with the theme of "eliminating hatred" also involves many politicians in Germany, France and the United States. The spoof component is quite obvious, and Chavez also feels that the photo is "creative" after reading it. In many countries, it is common to make fun of national leaders. No one will make a fuss about it, and of course they will not be arrested and imprisoned for it. The bottom line of spoof is laws and regulations. As long as it does not violate or overstep, the spoof itself is innocent. As long as it is not illegal, it is also allowed to spoof public figures. As an ancient cultural celebrity, Du Fu has a history of thousands of years, and even his descendants have been separated by dozens of generations, so the right to portrait has not been protected, so the spoof of Du Fu does not involve portrait infringement.
Those who are still grieving, buy a copy of People's Daily to read. On March 27th, there was an article called "Du Gongyou's spirit should be smiling".
Conclusion: Those who are still sad about the national spirit and traditional culture may find some comfort by buying a copy of People's Daily. Unfortunately, on March 27th, this newspaper had an article "Du Gonggong smiled", which raised such a question. Who told adults to use Du Fu as a tool for their speech and make them as thin as paper?
Du Hong should laugh.

Du Fu is very busy recently. Du Fuxiang, a textbook of Jiang Middle School, was uploaded to the Internet after being doodled by various graffiti, which triggered a heated discussion. A person in charge of a non-governmental organization said in an interview that Du Fu's spirit is the spiritual light of our nation, and we will never be allowed to denigrate Du Fu's image. If someone spoofs Du Fu and maliciously uglifies his image, it shows that he is ignorant, shallow and vulgar.
I found relevant graffiti photos on the Internet, and the diversity of graffiti forms and rich imagination surprised me: a picture of Du Fu's horizontal sniper rifle, which he just finished shooting, has a "cool" expression; A picture of Du Fu holding a guitar horizontally, staring into the distance, as if singing selflessly; One picture shows Du Fu dressed as a fashionable young man, with a cigarette in his mouth and riding a Q scooter on his crotch ... The spoof of Du Fu is in stark contrast to the realistic poet's concern for the country and the people and his generosity, which makes people laugh. Moreover, many gains have been changed, which is very tacit with the original work. "One more point, one less point" is very accurate. It is conceivable that graffiti is full of enthusiasm, concentration and interest.
Seeing this, I feel that the words of "slander" and "ugliness" are really "shells hitting mosquitoes", and these graffiti are at best naughty and humorous of children in the rebellious period of youth. Ask yourself, when we were young, which one didn't doodle in the textbook? Which serious characters and "villains" in textbooks have not been "spoofed"? Are these naughty pranks really insulting "the light of national spirit" and distorting "right and wrong"? Fortunately, "the law does not blame the public", otherwise even if it is difficult to call it "the most heinous crime", it should be dragged down into the room and hit another 50 boards!
As adults, as educators or cultural practitioners, we should reflect: Why are children so keen on "graffiti"? What kind of emotional and psychological demands are hidden behind graffiti? What are the one-sided and fallacies in our cultural and educational communication work? Can we actively meet their spiritual and psychological needs through the adjustment of educational communication methods and sublimate their repressed "Libido"?
For example, our textbooks and teachers describe Du Fu as "caring for the country and the people" and "realism" forever, regardless of his temperament of "however, I frantically tidy up my books and poems". "A cold wind is blowing from the distant sky. What are you thinking, old friend?" And to ask a friend for a sapling, he should also be endowed with a poetic romance. "Worrying about the country and the people" and "realism" are of course the outstanding characteristics of Du Fu, but the repeated emphasis on these characteristics leads to the labeling of Du Fu's image, which makes the perspective of observing historical figures simple and boring for children who are still in adolescence, which hurts their interest in further exploration and even stimulates their rebellious psychology.
To put it bluntly, the children's graffiti on Du Fu is really not aimed at Du Fu himself. They have opinions, but we practitioners of education and culture. Who told adults to use Du Fu as their own speaking tool and make them as thin as paper?
Children laugh and curse, adults should stay at home, be ashamed and be brave. This year marks the 300th anniversary of Du Fu's birth/kloc-0. If so, Duke Du's spirit should also be smiling.
