Chapter 480 The Saddest Diary
Xu Nuo used a humorous opening to firmly grasp the students' attention from the beginning.
Some people always say that today's college students are a lost generation because they are always playing with their mobile phones in class.
But he didn't think whether it was his own problem. The rote teaching method has long been eliminated by the times. If he wants students to listen carefully, he must show some real skills.
Xu Nuo introduced the archives and nodded at Li Tongchen, "Whenever an emperor or general is born, there will be some magical phenomena recorded in history, such as dragon energy appearing in the sky, dead trees blooming, stars falling from the sky, and red light everywhere. Zhu Yuanzhang is no exception. According to the "Ming Shilu", when Zhu Yuanzhang was born, red light was everywhere."
Xu Nuo told stories and interspersed historical records, just like telling stories, and the students listened with relish.
"Everyone's success is not achieved overnight. The seventeen-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang will face the greatest suffering in his life."
"This year, the Yellow River flooded, hundreds of thousands of people became victims, and the Huaihe River suffered from plague and drought. In ancient times, natural disasters meant death, because they did not have the help of the People's Liberation Army. Not only that, if they saw the army, their first choice was to run, the farther the better. If they ran slowly, they might be killed and taken for military merit."
The atmosphere became a little heavy. Some professors present had experienced natural disasters, floods, and droughts, but they all survived.
Not because they were strong enough.
But because the motherland cared about them.
But because there was the People's Liberation Army.
"It's time for the Party and the People to test us!" As the older generation in the disaster center, they had heard this sentence more than once.
There were no slogans that made people's blood boil, and there was no fierce organizational spirit. Just such a simple sentence was enough to make them go forward and sacrifice their lives.
In times of crisis, a sentence that the People's Liberation Army is here can make everyone excited and burst into tears.
Compared with Zhu Chongba, they are just lucky people who are lucky to live in this era.
Xu Nuo sighed: "If Zhu Yuanzhang is given a choice, I believe he will choose to be an ordinary citizen in modern times, because what happens next is the greatest pain in his life."
On the sixth day of April, Zhu Chongba's father starved to death.
On the ninth day of April, his eldest brother starved to death.
On the twelfth day, his eldest brother's eldest son starved to death.
On the twenty-second day, his mother starved to death.
"In half a month, Zhu Chongba lost four relatives. In addition to his married sister and the three who married into the family, this beautiful family only had Zhu Chongba and his second brother. The seventeen-year-old Zhu Chongba watched his relatives die one after another in front of him, but he was powerless."
The cold words describe even colder things.
The lives of these people were written in just a few words.
In the live broadcast room, the number of people easily exceeded one million.
Many people came to sing for Xu Nuo, and soon they were attracted by "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
"Come on! Nuoyan is giving a lecture!"
"Very interesting, history is so interesting!"
"Absolutely wonderful! Come quickly!"
Many netizens recommended this course to their friends, and the desire to share played a full role at this time.
And more viewers were posting barrages to discuss what Xu Nuo said.
"During the flood a few years ago, the PLA went to wherever there was applause. Without them, more people might have died."
"Long live the People's Liberation Army!"
"We are just lucky to live in this era!"
As the course progressed, Xu Nuo's lectures also became a hot search on major platforms.
"Starting with a Bowl - From Beggar to Emperor"
It fits the name of a novel nowadays. It must be explosive, conflicting, and reflect the content of the story.
Readers in the comment area lit up.
"What kind of novel is this? Where can I read it?"
"Who wrote it? It must be a masterpiece!"
"Fuck, I want to read it!"
"I know this novel. The protagonist starts with a bowl, his parents are dead, he has to steal all his equipment, and finally becomes the emperor."
"Novels don't dare to write like this, right?"
Soon someone started to popularize science: "Novels don't dare to write like this, but history dares to write like this. This person is Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Nuoyan is giving a lecture! Go and listen, it's very interesting!"
More and more netizens flocked to the live broadcast room to watch.
"We are lucky to live in this era!"
This hot search appeared inexplicably, like a fake slogan, but when I clicked in, I found that the comment area has become a gathering place for netizens to tell their own stories of earthquake relief.
The language is simple, but full of emotion, which immediately evoked many people's memories.
On the short video platform, Xu Nuo handed the bowl to a student and asked him to build a powerful empire. This clip quickly became popular and attracted countless netizens to follow suit.
"Hold this guitar, I'll teach you how to play doramiso. Now you've learned it. Challenge Nuoyan!"
"Hold this pen, I'll teach you how to write one, two, three, four. Very good. You've mastered the skill. Next, challenge Nuoyan!"
The popularity of Zhu Yuanzhang's name has increased twenty times on major search platforms!
A serious course has attracted the attention of millions of people, and the popularity is still growing.
You should know that Xu Nuo did not sing this time, and he did not even mention the stage name Nuoyan. He has always been teaching under the name Xu Nuo.
Li Tongchen followed the Internet's popularity and lamented that history seemed to have a new direction of development, popular history.
Based on historical materials, with characters and eras as the main line, using the techniques of novels, and evaluating the economic, cultural and political systems of the time from the perspective of later generations, history suddenly became vivid.
If this popularity can be grasped, history will set off a wave greater than the martial arts fever.
When Xu Nuo was teaching, he allowed students to ask questions, so in this class, he only talked about Zhu Yuanzhang leaving Haozhou with 24 people, including Xu Da, Tang He...
When the bell rang, Xu Nuo looked at his watch: "I personally hated delays when I was in school. Now that I am a teacher, I don't want to become what I hate the most. This class ends here today!"
The students wailed in pain.
"We are not afraid of delays!"
"Teacher, please continue!"
"Ahhhh, don't break the chapter!"
The students were listening seriously. They had never felt that history was so interesting. A desire for knowledge had made them forget the time.
This may be the first time in their lives that they are so eager for knowledge, and even hope that Xu Nuo can stay for a little longer.
The professors sitting in the first row looked at each other and sighed.
In their courses, let alone students begging them to stay for a little longer, if they stay for a minute longer, there will be sounds of zipping, closing books, checking the time, coughing, and other actions reminding them that the get out of class is over.
They should be thankful if the attendance rate is 90%. It is not like now, not only is the class full, but the students are also reluctant to let him go.
Xu Nuo glanced at the time: "Although I also want to continue telling this story, you have other classes next, and we still have many opportunities to attend classes."
"Teacher Xu, can you sing a song?" A student suddenly suggested.
Upon hearing this, the professors in the front row frowned at the same time, and turned back to find who suggested it.
Death stares from professors.
The person who spoke shrank his neck.
Xu Nuo looked unhappy: "Student, this is a history class. If you don't want to come to class, I think this class is not suitable for you!"
Xu Nuo said this very impolitely. It's okay when he was taking classes at Magic City Media. After all, it was a music class, and the subject was singing. Singing a song was considered normal teaching content.
Now it's a history class, what's the point of singing?
"I always think that everyone who attends the class should maintain basic respect for knowledge and teachers. Today I stand here as a visiting professor of the History School of Jiangda, not in any other capacity."
The vast majority of people in the live broadcast room expressed their support.
"Yes, a teacher should look like a teacher. Have you seen any history professor singing?"
"Nuoyan really has the demeanor of a professor!"
"You speak so well!"
After a few words, Li Tongchen and others took the lead in applauding.
Dean Qian also nodded with satisfaction. The classroom should maintain such purity. Some things in the entertainment industry should not be brought into the campus.
At first, he was a little worried. After all, Jiangda had never invited any celebrity to be a visiting professor. If the effect was not good, he would inevitably be criticized.
He was very satisfied with Xu Nuo's performance today. He taught quietly and had a professor's flavor.
Xu Nuo picked up the microphone and looked at the audience: "get out of class is over!"
The auditorium was filled with thunderous applause. Until Xu Nuo left, the students had not recovered from their excitement and excitement.
"This is so interesting!"
"I just searched for information and it basically matches the historical facts."
"If all classes are taught like this, I think I love classes very much."
"Only idiots skip classes!"
Many students who came for celebrities also developed a strong interest in history. It was as interesting as reading novels.
At the same time, the online live course had ended, and there was a lot of discussion about it online.
At its peak, this class had 5 million online users.
The person who jumped out to criticize Xu Nuo before jumped out again: "First of all, I have to make it clear that Nuoyan's lecture today did not have the shadow of a star at all. He has completely entered the position of professor. However, some of the content he talked about was not very rigorous, or it was just a kind of speculation. This is not advisable in historical research. We must strictly abide by historical records."
To criticize first and then praise, an old routine.
One after another, the so-called history department bigwigs jumped out. They were jealous. You are a visiting professor in your twenties, and you have 5 million people watching your lectures. There are hot searches one after another. How can they survive?
Before Xu Nuo spoke, Li Tongchen went down directly, and the second battle of verbal battles with scholars began.
Old Li was uncharacteristically crazy online, and everyone was speechless.
