"Qin Mystery: Rediscovering Qin Shihuang", the author of the book, Li Kaiyuan's own position is "historical reasoning works".
When reading ancient historical records, the biggest problem is that the details are not rich enough, especially the pre-Qin historical events, because most of them are written and recorded, and the information of relevant characters other than the events can only be approximated by piecing together guesses. This point cannot be avoided even in Historical Records, which is called "the swan song of historians, Li Sao without rhyme. From ancient times to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period and then to the struggle between Chu and Han, first, it was a long time ago, second, many years of war, and third, there was the disaster of the first emperor burning books, which brought many difficulties to the compilation of history books for later generations. Although "Historical Records" is the first of the twenty-four histories, it is Sima Qian's private creation, and it is inevitable that it is not rigorous because of his personal position. What's more, "Historical Records" has been a book for more than 2,000 years, and future generations have repeatedly copied, added and deleted, and it is normal to have errors. And these have become spaces for historical researchers to explore.
Qin Shihuang is "the first emperor through the ages", with clear literary and martial arts, as well as clear and unclear. The book "Qin Mystery" lists four mysteries related to him. First, "who is the father of Qin Shihuang", a topic that has been talked about for thousands of years, can cater to the gossip psychology of many readers, and the more unclear it is, the more popular it is. Second, "the story of the younger brother and the false father", because the main character is the emperor, it is naturally associated with Gongdou. Compared with the first two "regular topics", the latter two seem to be more interesting-"looking for Qin Shihuang's cousin", who is his cousin? Is his cousin so important? "Qin Shihuang's Harem Mystery", shouldn't Qin Shihuang's queen be the Afang girl?
Li Kaiyuan is a historian, with both the study of words in the classics and the experience of archaeological field investigation. Such people interpret history, and their thinking is always a little broader than that of the old husband in the study. They combine historical records with archaeological data, and often carry something from an obvious but neglected corner to peel off the cocoon and cut silk. Moreover, the analysis is reasonable and well-founded, which makes people shine at the moment.
About because the manuscript has been used as a commentary for TV cultural programs, the style of "Qin Mystery" is mainly rigorous and concise oral English, which is grounded and suspense, but not mysterious. However, perhaps for the same reason, the last few sections of the book show a bit of "passionate explanation". It is a bit noisy that "historical detectives think so" and "historical detectives discover.
There are a few good words in the postscript to the book that reflect the author's original intention:
"History is an eternal mystery, because we can't go back. If I can't provide you with the most accurate historical facts, I will provide you with the most reasonable speculation."
"The most accurate historical fact is the truth close to beauty; the most reasonable speculation is that the beauty close to truth has irreplaceable value."
As a reader who likes history, the biggest advantage of reading Qin Mystery is that it opens up a new perspective on reading history. In the same history book, reading stories is a way of reading, but fortunately, I just want to talk more without much understanding; solving puzzles is also a way of reading, fortunately, I have seen what I have not said. Of course, solving puzzles requires strong information integration and deconstruction ability, which will take more brains and look hard. Fortunately, at least in Qin Shihuang's case, professionals such as Li Kaiyuan have already been involved for us.
However, although Li Kaiyuan says his aim is to "reveal the truth about history", who can really tell the truth about history, which is thousands of years ago? Even contemporaries of the record and even those who have experienced it, I am afraid there will be problems with the "authorities. So reading this book, even if you think the analysis is reasonable, there is no need to rush to the judgment that "this is the historical truth. If you feel credible, believe it. Think it's bullshit, it's bullshit.
Shakespeare once said, "For a thousand readers, there are a thousand Hamlets". Similarly, no matter whether you have read "Historical Records" or "Qin Mystery" or not, everyone will have a Qin Shihuang of his own in his heart. (Hong Tao)

Shanghai Bronze Award for Outstanding Invention Went in North Carolina
News from this newspaper The results of the 31st Shanghai Excellent Invention Trial jointly organized by the Shanghai Federation of Trade Unions, Shanghai Intellectual Property Office, Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League, Shanghai Science and Technology Association, and Shanghai Invention Association were evaluated a few days ago. The "Quality Improvement and Industrialization Optimization of Erlotinib Hydrochloride and Its Advanced Intermediates" declared by Technology Co., Ltd. won the bronze award. Erlotinib hydrochloride is a targeted therapy drug for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, which can prolong the survival time and improve the quality of life of lung cancer patients. It can target and specific sites of action to kill tumor cells, and has little impact on normal tissues. It belongs to the biological and new medical technology in the field of high-tech supported by the state. In this invention, 6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline -4-one, 4-chloro -6,7-di (2-methoxyethoxy) quinazoline and 3-aminophenylacetylene are important intermediates of erlotinib hydrochloride, which is also an important intermediate of icotinib hydrochloride, the first new anti-tumor drug of tinib in China. The invention designs and adopts a new synthesis process route, which can effectively reduce the cost of raw materials, the reactions are mostly aqueous phase reactions, energy consumption and three waste emissions are reduced by about 35%, industrialization conditions are optimized, product quality is improved, and it is applied to Industrialized mass production is conducive to the production of high-quality and low-cost erlotinib hydrochloride drugs and reduces the economic burden of patients. The Shanghai Excellent Invention Trial was founded in 1987. It is an important science and technology award approved by the Shanghai Municipal Government. It not only strongly promoted the majority of employees to carry out invention and creation activities based on their posts, but also improved the order.
