What is gossip?

The origin of the word gossip

I specifically asked my friends in Guangdong how the word "gossip" evolved into the meaning it represents now. Say: The original meaning of "gossip" in Cantonese is to tell right and wrong and rap everywhere. In order to attract readers, entertainment news and paparazzi dig up the privacy of stars everywhere, so the news dug up in this way is called "gossip news" On the other hand, it seems that it can be traced back further and can better reflect the spirit of gossip: the origin of the name "gossip magazine" is that when pornographic books and periodicals were published in Hong Kong in the early years, the extremely cool and eye-catching photos on the cover would be affixed with gossip pictures in key parts, which is similar to the mosaic effect, and this kind of magazine reporting the private lives of stars was named, and the word "gossip" even derived adjectives and verbs from nouns.

Why gossip?

1. Yijing has a saying: "Yin and Yang give birth to Tai Chi, Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments, two instruments give birth to four images, and four images give birth to eight diagrams". The founder of Hong Kong gossip magazine thinks that most of the world-famous gossip comes from the enmity between men and women (Yang), just like Yin and Yang give birth to gossip, so it is named gossip magazine.

2. Taiwan Province entertainment circle uses "gossip" to express the word of foreign gossip, which should be initiated by Taiwan Province artist Cao Qitai. His use of the word at that time should be the evolution of the word "bitch".

The origin of the word gossip is also interesting. It is said that when Hong Kong gossip magazines have dew point photos, they put a small gossip pattern on that "point" (Taiwan Province Province seems to use stars or love), which has become synonymous with gossip over time.

Gossip in the modern sense is not gossip of yin and yang. All in all, it's gossip, boring entertainment news, bitch

Legend has it that there was a great gossip war in the Middle Ages. This array is mutually supportive, interconnected and unpredictable. Even after many battles, those who were brave and good at fighting fell into the battle, which was a narrow escape, and most of them were confused and could not find the north. If they run away, they will spill blood on the battlefield. Du Fu wrote a poem: "The Three Kingdoms, divided and bound by his greatness, are built on his reputation. Next to this ever-changing river stands the sadness that he never conquered Wu. " It is said that when Zhuge Liang entered Shu, he laid a stone array where he had to pass. "Every day, every hour, there is no reason to change, comparable to a hundred thousand soldiers." Later, Wu Dong general Lu Xun was captured in the battle, but thanks to the help of Zhuge Liang's father-in-law, he was able to escape. This battle is called "Eight Arrays". According to my personal speculation, this "eight-array map" should be changed from the "eight diagrams". With Zhuge Liang's habit of always playing tricks, he must be good at such incredible things as "gossip".

But the gossip I want to talk about today is the gossip news array, which is even more powerful than the previous gossip array. It is confusing and unpredictable, which can definitely make a two-foot-tall monk wonder where his head is. "Gossip news" refers to entertainment news that catches the wind and makes a mountain out of a molehill.

Gossip news that catches the wind and shadows can be seen everywhere. Today, the star is chased by loan sharks, and tomorrow, the star will be caught taking drugs. Today this star hits people, and tomorrow that one will be injured by admirers; Today, the star plays big cards to keep the audience waiting, and tomorrow that one is cheated by Dongtou; Who the star sues today and who the defendant will be tomorrow ... changes quickly! It fully embodies the characteristics of smooth and fast information flow in the information age. But in fact, the more true it is, the more likely it is to be false! Does this mean that the level of fraud in all fields of society has "reached a new level"?

It is not uncommon to make a mountain out of a molehill. It is reported that a star was "desperate to make a movie and was seriously injured". Who would have thought that two days later, I saw a star appear at a ceremony with a smile on TV, and kept flirting with beautiful female stars, saying some disgusting lies, crazy words and kind words. It turns out that filming is just scratching the skin, even the band-aid can be saved. Just because stars are intangible assets of society, no matter what it is, even a big fart, as long as it is related to stars, it becomes "valuable". Not long ago, I read a news in a provincial newspaper that "Xu Fan had a car accident". The black headline is both eye-catching and heavy. The author has always been fond of Xu Fan and thinks that she is one of the few actresses who can play whatever she likes. So I quickly lowered my head. It is reported that a motorcycle passed by while Xu Fan was filming, which frightened Xu Fan. After reading the report, my first reaction was that the author must have had a grudge against the traffic police! You didn't even touch a hair. This is a car accident, not trying to kill the traffic police! The most ridiculous thing is that the so-called anonymous singer "looking for a cat" was hyped by various media in Hong Kong a while ago. The female singer's performance on the hillside was really "wonderful", calling her cat's name affectionately and smiling back frequently. Of course, behind her are dozens of entertainers, carrying all kinds of interview equipment, large and small, to follow the report. That scene is definitely funnier than any humorous cartoon.

In all kinds of media, "gossip news" in the name of meeting the people's growing cultural needs, makes the farce put on the cloak of serious drama and put on a grand performance!

Orthodoxy refers to:

Taiji Bagua is the cultural and scientific heritage of ancient China and the crystallization of the wisdom and civilization of ancient working people in China. It not only made indelible contributions to the people in ancient times, but also made great contributions in modern times. 1930 1 month, American astronomer Tom Bao discovered Pluto, the ninth largest planet in the solar system. It was immediately suggested that there was no tenth planet in the solar system. Because Pluto was discovered not long ago, the observation data were inaccurate, and the efforts to predict the tenth planet failed one after another. At that time, Liu Zihua, a 27-year-old from China, worked part-time in France. He made up his mind not to rely on Newton's gravity theory to predict the tenth planet in the solar system. Liu Zihua didn't imagine it. He found that the stars in the solar system have a corresponding relationship with the divination of gossip. According to this relationship, he proved that the average orbital velocity and density of each corresponding star are a secret value through the calculation of astronomical parameters (as shown in the table). After repeated calculations, Liu Zihua was the first to calculate that the average orbital speed of the tenth planet is 2 kilometers per second, the density is 0.424 grams per cubic centimeter, and the average distance from the sun is 7.4 billion kilometers. According to the naming principle of Greek mythology, the planet behind Pluto is called "Muwangxing". Liu Zihua wrote his prediction in a paper entitled "Gossip Cosmology and Modern Astronomy" and submitted it to the University of Paris as a doctoral thesis. The thesis was well received, and Liu Zihua was officially awarded the French national doctorate from 65438 to 0938. This is a great contribution made by China scientists who used Taiji Bagua to shake the world in modern times. China's ancient Taiji Eight Diagrams have made many contributions to modern science. German mathematician Leibniz is the founder of modern electronic computer binary system. But few people know that it was with the inspiration and help of China's ancient Taiji Eight Diagrams that he had a brainwave and succeeded in one fell swoop.
