89: Chapter 89 I'll show you
The characteristics of a writing system are limited.
Rigor, antiquity, number of users, coverage...
Huaxia Civilization is unique and brilliant, but that does not mean all other civilizations are worthless.
The writing systems of other civilizations each have their own characteristics, nearly reaching the limits in different aspects.
Taken as a whole, chinese characters are a "hexagonal warrior," but making this one writing system compare against the combined strengths of all other writing systems and still win by a coefficient of '1' is almost impossible!
Even so, Chen Aoyun did not give up.
Chen Aoyun always held that same attitude:
"I, Chen Aoyun, am a nobody; you can look down on me, Chen Aoyun, but you absolutely cannot look down on Huaxia Civilization!"
"No matter what the outside world says, I believe the coefficient of chinese characters themselves is 10!
Since it is inherently 10, it is not that chinese characters are lacking, but that I am lacking.
There must be something I overlooked..."
"I am still missing the last 0.5.
What characteristic do chinese characters have that other writing systems do not?
There is, there must be!"
Time passed bit by bit, and Chen Aoyun's brain was still spinning wildly.
However, no matter how much he thought, he still had no clue.
Zhao Hongxiu suddenly spoke,
"Cultural loss and historical gaps mean I don't understand chinese characters very well, nor do I know much about Huaxia.
But in this Game of National Destiny, one sentence of yours deeply shocked me:
'In the Old Era, Huaxia Civilization was the only ancient civilization that never suffered an interruption!'
If chinese characters have a characteristic that other writing systems lack, it must be related to that sentence!"
Zhao Hongxiu had wanted to say these words for a long time, but she had held them back for fear of interrupting Chen Aoyun's train of thought.
At this moment, seeing Chen Aoyun completely at a loss, she spoke decisively.
One sentence awakened the dreamer!
Chen Aoyun was stunned at first, then thoughtful, and finally, his eyes suddenly brightened!
Writing is related to civilization, so the characteristics of a writing system must also possess the characteristics of the civilization.
Chen Aoyun was just too familiar with Huaxia and felt that everything about Huaxia was awesome, which is why he overlooked this most distinct and unique characteristic of Huaxia: 'Ancient and never interrupted'!
Huaxia Civilization never suffered an interruption, and neither did chinese characters!
Or rather, the evolution and changes of chinese characters never suffered an interruption!
From oracle bone script to bronze script, then to large seal script and small seal script, running script, clerical script, regular script... every step of the evolution of chinese characters has traceable evidence and originated from Huaxia Civilization itself!
People of Huaxia before the crossing could read the characters left behind by their ancestors thousands of years ago.
Isn't that because of this uninterrupted inheritance?
Isn't it because the evolution of chinese characters was entirely in the hands of Huaxia itself!
There was only half a minute left to place the weight.
Just when the whole world thought a coefficient of 9.5 was Chen Aoyun's limit, and also the limit of chinese characters.
Chen Aoyun curled his lips into that annoying smile again!
Seeing this eccentric and slightly arrogant smile, some viewers immediately realized something was wrong.
It can still flip?
I don't believe it.
If you can still flip it when it's like this, flip one for me to see.
Then I will flip it for you to see!
Chen Aoyun suddenly spoke, four large characters clear and loud:
"Self-originated writing!"
The world thinks the most awesome english belongs to the Germanic language family, and the Germanic language family is a branch of the Indo-European language family.
Simply put, whether in origin or evolution, english has many 'daddies'!
Not just english, all widely used writing systems of the Old Era, except for chinese characters, are 'hybrids'!
French, Italian... are hybrids of the Latin language family.
Sakura language and Goguryeo language, which borrowed from chinese characters, are hybrids of chinese characters.
chinese characters, only chinese characters originated in Huaxia, developed in Huaxia, and matured in Huaxia; it is the language of Huaxia Civilization itself.
It has never been interrupted; the people who invented it and the people who used it are the same group of people!
Therefore, in the Old Era, only Huaxia could best 'read' the ancestors of it!
cuneiform is ancient.
The song sings, 'The Ancient Babylonian dynasty promulgated the Code of Hammurabi'.
But does that code have any relationship with the later Nile Country?
Are they the same group of people?
How much of the cuneiform on the Code of Hammurabi can the later generations of Nile Country understand?
The four ancient civilizations: Ancient Egypt, Ancient India, Ancient Babylon, and Huaxia.
Why is it that only Huaxia does not carry that 'ancient' character? Isn't it because Huaxia has spread to this day without interruption, and ancient Huaxia is Huaxia!
Just like the writing of Huaxia, wind-blown and rain-beaten, it has continued to pass down its spark through the traces of time!
Boom — —!
'Self-originated writing'.
These four simple characters were like a scorching sun entering the ocean; not only was the huge scales before his eyes shaking, but the entire Star Chessboard seemed to be trembling!
A weight, huge enough to be a circle larger than the pan of The Scales, fell!
This was no longer a question of balance.
It was The Scales completely tipping to the side representing the Dragon Country!
The angle of tilt was almost 180 degrees!
Zhao Hongxiu on the side was dumbfounded, the Sakura Country [Strategist] Saku Kenichi opposite was dumbfounded, and the commentators in the broadcast room and the viewers staring at the screen were all dumbfounded!
"It's happening again!
It's again without any explanation, just throwing out a viewpoint, and it turns into a weight.
It would be fine if it just turned into a weight to change the balance.
Why did The Scales tilt toward the Dragon Country?
And why did it tilt so much?
The Scales are almost at a right angle; this is too outrageous!
I have never heard of the side being judged being able to weigh down The Scales, let alone by such a large angle.
Just how heavy is the weight of those four characters spoken by the Dragon Country Strategist!"
Exclamations were endless, especially after the Will of National Destiny annotated it, and the world was even more speechless.
[Special move detected in Divine Judgment, Huaxia chinese characters, from now on writing coefficient: 12]
The writing coefficient of chinese characters is 12?
Wasn't it 10 before?
How come after Sakura Country's round of Judgment manipulation, the coefficient of chinese characters not only didn't drop but increased by 2 points?
What kind of outrageous and dramatic result is this?
Chen Aoyun was also somewhat surprised; how could it increase by 2 points?
But after thinking carefully, he felt relieved, and even felt that the Will of National Destiny was sensible, and it should be like this!
[Heroic Spirits/wonders] Aren't they the manifestation of the 'humanistic power' of the Old Era?
The characteristics of chinese characters are unique and echo Huaxia Civilization; of these extra 2 points, 1 point is in admiration of the uniqueness of chinese characters, and the other 1 point is given out of respect for Huaxia Civilization?
Chen Aoyun was still thinking about these extra 2 points of coefficient.
Suddenly, a message from the Will of National Destiny echoed in his heart:
[Your actions have attracted the attention of the Immortals]
Immortals?
The voice in his heart was the voice of the Will of National Destiny, but it was different, as if a higher, more ancient voice was mixed in.
Before Chen Aoyun could ponder it.
Everything in front of him began to change in a chaotic and disorderly way.
In the blink of an eye, the Star Chessboard in front of him disappeared.
No longer in the [Strategist] identity, Chen Aoyun arrived in a strange room.
