Chapter 1214: The pie that is the Chinese language textbook curriculum revision!



Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

In the afternoon.

Ha Qiqi went downstairs to look for Zhang Ye.

Zhang Ye was sparring with Yang Shu at Rao Aimin\'s apartment.

"Director Zhang, are you busy?"

"Not at all, I\'m done here."

"Everyone has arrived and are waiting for you in the conference room."

"Alright, I\'ll be right over."

"I just received some news about something that cropped up over at Central TV."

"Did something happen? Come, let\'s talk about it back at the office."

His studio was located just upstairs. He didn\'t even need to take the elevator and only took a minute or two by stairs to get to. The conference room was packed with all the studio employees present.

Zhang Ye sat down. "Let\'s get the meeting started."

Everyone began reporting about the progress of their work over the past few days.

The sales volume of Fortress Besieged, the reputation gained from winning the highest honor, and a summary of the increase in popularity during this period, etc. Work was going well and the results were very delightful too. All of them had handed in an impeccable answer sheet, and the main contributor definitely had to be Zhang Ye. As expected, when the studio staff were all feeling hopeless about things, Zhang Ye managed to pull it off. He saved the entire "world" with a novel he had written and put back on track the plan they had for him to reach the summit. They were within sight of those seven spots at the top. What laid ahead of them now was only the latter half of the plan.

Zhang Zuo said, "We\'ve already started preparing for the third milestone."

Ha Qiqi gave a wry smile and said, "Although we say that we\'re preparing for it, there isn\'t much that we can actually do."

Wu Yi said, "Yeah, whether we can hit the third milestone target or not, we can only leave it in fate\'s hands. There isn\'t much hope, but there\'s still a minute chance, I suppose."

Zhang Zuo analyzed, "The biggest issue is that Director Zhang\'s relationship with many of those in the education field is just average. The people from Peking University and Media College are definitely going to be supportive of Director Zhang, even though we can ignore and discount the effect that Media College has on this matter. This isn\'t something that they have much influence in, but Peking University still has a very large say. Then the remaining people could only be considered opponents of this milestone target that we have. Anyone who came out of Tsinghua University definitely won\'t put in a recommendation for Director Zhang\'s works. Many of the Redologists in the education field are still scolding Director Zhang every day. Then, there are also some others….Hai, there are just too many of them."

Everyone\'s heads hurt.

Zhang Ye asked, "It\'s going to happen soon?"

Zhang Zuo said somberly, "Yes, they\'ll be making a decision very soon."

Zhang Ye asked again, "Which day exactly?"

"I tried to find out but couldn\'t get any information," Zhang Zuo said.

Zhang Ye acknowledged, "Alright, I\'ll go check with my friends then."

Ha Qiqi said, "When we set this as our third milestone, we did have some hesitations as well. Honestly, even if we can\'t achieve it, it\'s fine. It\'s too difficult to achieve in the first place."

Zhang Ye laughed and said, "Let\'s just give it a try."

Little Wang said loudly, "Yes, that\'s right. We definitely have to give it a try and see how it turns out. This is a great chance to go down in history, and it\'s also a huge sustainable source of popularity!"

All of them were discussing the new curriculum changes to the national textbooks and teaching materials!

That was the third milestone in the plan to reach the summit!

The nine-year compulsory curriculum revision of the textbooks and teaching materials was going to be implemented soon. The new content for the textbooks used in elementary, middle, and high schools involved changes in many aspects and also coincided with the educational reforms introduced over the past two years. The importance of such an exercise, its importance, and its politicality were all interconnected. The relationship between them was intricate and complex. In fact, rumors of revisions to the textbooks had been floating around since last year. Curriculum revisions were cyclical in nature, and they had reached the key point in time again. The curriculum revision was no secret, and everyone was prepared for it. However, no one expected it to be dragged out for so long until today, when some insider news finally got leaked.

The public still did not know, but many of the industry insiders had heard the news.

Zhang Ye\'s Studio was naturally concerned about it as they were hoping for a chance to get written into the textbooks!

It could even be said that the first and second milestones were completed in order to increase their chances of reaching the third milestone. By releasing a best-selling novel and winning a prestigious award, it wouldn\'t matter if others did not acknowledge Zhang Ye. With such achievements, Zhang Ye would become one of the leading figures in the literary field. The studio staff were all hoping that Zhang Ye would be able to get onto a page of the newly revised Chinese Language textbooks during this time his glowing achievements stood out. Even if it was going to be on the most corner spot of a page, even if only one of his works were chosen, that was enough for them!

Was this an important matter?

Yes, it really was a very important matter!

Thinking back to Beijing Television\'s Wang Shuixin whom Zhang Ye had fought with over the death of Father Wei, he had a poem called "Everything" that was listed in the appendix of a Chinese Language textbook. It wasn\'t even the main article, but Wang Shuixin behaved like he was some big shot. Those who could get their works into the official textbooks were either going to be the great ancients or a contemporary literary master!

The benefits were enormous!

A storm was probably brewing within the literary field!

But this only affected the Chinese language textbooks. Mathematics? Whoever could write a question that made it into the math textbook, that would just be it. There wouldn\'t be any attention given to the identity of the question writer, nor did anyone care. At most, the teacher who wrote that question could brag about it and tell their family and friends that it was they who wrote it.

Physics?

Chemistry?

English?

History?

Geography?

It was the same for those subjects. The Chinese language textbooks were the only difference. Any essays or poems that appeared in the Chinese language textbooks would be credited to the original authors. The students would even be required to recite some of them by heart! And what did that mean? Simply put, as long as a child was born and attended school in China, they would come across your work or have had to memorize it when they were young. They would definitely know your name, and this wasn\'t even by choice. There was simply no way of avoiding it, and they would have to know about it even if they did not wish to. You would then become known as a very great person to them from the time they were young!

If the highest honors in literature were an ICBM missile, then having your work chosen to be published in the Chinese language textbooks would make it an atomic bomb. The "radiation" effects would last for a very long time, or even affect someone for the rest of their lives!

As a literary figure, how important was this?

As someone from the entertainment industry, how important was this?

However, the other people from the entertainment industry had no chance of fighting for this opportunity. The only exception was Zhang Ye, as only he had the qualifications to fight it out with those big names in the literary field, to fight for that slim chance of having his work picked for the Chinese language textbook!

Textbooks for all six grades of elementary school?

Textbooks for all six grades of middle and high school?

Yes, perhaps there was even get a chance of getting one\'s works featured in the textbooks of both the first and second semesters of school!

It might sound like it was a lot or that there were many chances of getting one\'s work featured in the textbooks, but in reality, this was not so. The curriculum revision did not seek to change everything and would keep the majority of past teaching materials intact. For many of the ancients, their already included works would definitely not be touched. So the revision rate was not large at all. Excluding the predecessors\' works that made it in, and excluding those sections where poems and essays were irrelevant, whatever was left of the pie was tiny!

Ten bites?

Eight bites?

That was probably all there was!

And those in the literary field who were fighting to get a bite? There were tens of thousands!
