Teenagers in China are struggling with bad content in their textbooks, but Japanese textbooks are coming to the fore at this critical time.
Li Jing: The eighteen martial arts talents in Japanese textbooks.
Netizens were outraged by the spicy eye impact of the poisonous textbooks, and some even directly asked, "Don't you feel ashamed that the People's Education Society is doing better than China?" "Fortunately, the Chinese textbook has now been revised.
However, we can't help but wonder if the new textbook will really meet everyone's expectations.
The illustrations were questioned, and the problem gradually emerged Some netizens found that recently in a book called "Poison Textbook", there were some problems with the illustrations.
The overall style of these illustrations is very strange, and the depiction of the characters does not match the normal lines of the human body. To make matters worse, the characters in the illustrations often behave inappropriately, which clearly does not meet the standards of children's books.
The Japanese textbooks that have been praised by netizens are not only beautiful, but also rich and diverse.
The exquisite painting style and rich content have made Japanese textbooks highly praised by netizens and become the focus of attention.
Japanese textbooks are not only meticulously produced, but their content is full of all kinds of knowledge and fun, and has won high praise from netizens.
Japanese textbooks speak highly of the Chinese girl Li Jing, praising her generosity, beauty and talent.
She is very intelligent and always shows excellent performance in class. At the same time, she is passionate about extracurricular activities and artistic development.
Her versatility, whether it's playing an instrument or singing movingly, all show her outstanding talent. As an important part of educational resources, the value of textbooks cannot be ignored.
Therefore, textbooks should create a perfect image to guide minors to form correct values and aesthetics.
The image depiction of minors in Japanese textbooks is full of humanistic care, while the absurd image of the so-called "poisonous textbooks" exposes the irresponsibility of the editors.
The image in the illustration is unique, and the hairstyle of the little boy is unique, which has both the charm of Japanese ronin and the unique charm of the "Mediterranean".
The distance between the eyes of the characters in the painting is widened, showing a unique temperament. However, the overall look is a bit listless.
It is worth noting that the illustrator did not take into account the privacy of the characters. They depict in detail some inappropriate scenes of the little girl playing with her, such as accidentally exposing her private parts, as well as some inappropriate movements in the game, such as breast-grabbing and skirt-lifting.
The illustrations depict some evocative scenes, including some of the characteristics of female teachers. These depictions add to the life of the illustrations, but may be uncomfortable for some.
From the perspective of illustrators, they may think that their works are just a form of expression of art, but in the eyes of textbook users, especially minors, the content of illustrations may be misunderstood or misinterpreted, which may have an impact on their "three views".
Therefore, illustrators need to be more careful in the creative process to ensure that their work does not negatively affect minors.
This inappropriate portrayal not only causes psychological stress for children, but can also have a negative impact on their social and emotional development.
As the issue escalated, more and more parents and educators joined the discussion. They point out that it is not only the confusing content of the illustrations in the textbooks, but also the inappropriate problems in the educational environment as a whole.
Recently, it has been discovered that some books read by children have inappropriate content, such as the depiction of Yue Fei as a Japanese ronin on the cover of a picture book, which has aroused public concern.
It is regrettable that China's national characteristics are not fully represented in traditional figures, but are instead portrayed in the Japanese style.
Ironically, this book is a picture book about Chinese virtues, yet the quality of its illustrations is so poor that it is unacceptable.
In textbooks and children's books, we found some information that should not be taught to children, such as violence, pornography, horror and superstition. In addition, there is information that may be false, vulgar, or unscientific.
These problems not only pose a threat to students' academic performance, but also have a negative impact on their physical and mental health and moral perception. This incident has aroused widespread concern and heated discussion among the general public.
Parents and educators are increasingly calling for strict review and supervision of teaching materials by the education authorities to ensure that their content not only conforms to the core values of socialism, but also has a positive impact on the healthy growth of students.
The state strikes hard, and key figures surface. On the 28th of the same month, the People's Education Publishing House publicly stated that they were deeply aware of the seriousness of the illustration problem and decided to redraw the illustrations for students.
The publisher's understatement of apology did not win the forgiveness of netizens, who generally felt that the publisher lacked the determination to truly hold accountable, an attitude that disappointed and dissatisfied.
Netizens strongly condemned the actions of the publisher and called on them to take responsibility for it and take effective measures to prevent such problems from happening again.
In response to the publisher's actions, the "Rule of Law**" published a commentary, strongly condemning its irresponsible attitude and pointing out its negligence in guiding its role and textbook review.
They expect the publisher to conduct an in-depth investigation, reveal what is going on behind the scenes, ensure the accuracy and legitimacy of the teaching materials, and provide students with better educational materials.
After a detailed investigation, all the personnel related to the "poisoned textbook" incident were thoroughly investigated, among which the illustrator Wu Yong and the general art consultant Lu Jingren became the primary targets of the investigation.
According to the results of the investigation, the relationship between the two is still that of teacher and student. Although the two did not exchange interests improperly, Lu Jingren's family background caused people to speculate badly about this matter.
Wu Yong, a talented illustrator, is the proud of Lu Jingren. He graduated from the prestigious Academy of Arts and Design of Tsinghua University, and Lu Jingren is one of China's top experts in the field of book design.
However, behind Lu Jingren's innocent image, there is a not-so-innocent family background.
In 1937, the Japanese invaders invaded Shanghai. In the case of national panic, Lu Jingren's uncle Lu Shutao showed extraordinary courage and led several of his brothers to start a business in Shanghai and founded Dakang Enterprise Co., Ltd
They have not only opened up a way for themselves, but also injected new vitality into Shanghai's economic development.
According to rumors, the Lü family was able to survive in this difficult situation, perhaps because they had adopted a compromising attitude, bowed to the Japanese, and offered financial assistance in exchange for the protection of the enemy.
The word "Dakang" in Dakang Enterprise Co., Ltd. reveals their flattering mentality. Among them, "Dai" alludes to the Japanese emperor, and "Kang" alludes to the Japanese people.
This admiration and dependence on foreign countries shows their lack of self-esteem and self-confidence.
During the period of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, Lu Shutao, in order to seek personal gain, went so far as to sell substandard medicines to the volunteers, resulting in the loss of a large number of fresh lives, which is really despicable.
Lu Shutao was sentenced to death for something, but the sentence was commuted to life imprisonment before the execution, and the details could not be verified. This dramatic change is food for thought.
Lü Jingren's father, Lü Shuxiang, was a well-known master in the field of fine arts. He devoted his life to art education and creation, creating an environment full of artistic growth for Lu Jingren.
Under the subtlety of this family atmosphere, Lu Jingren developed a strong interest in painting since he was a child.
Through continuous exploration and experimentation, he has tempered his own unique artistic style and creative concept. His work is full of vitality and innovation, and has won widespread praise and acceptance.
Unexpectedly, the next events led him astray. In 1989, Lu Jingren got a rare opportunity to study in Japan, and under the tutelage of the famous painter Sugiura Kohei, he further refined his painting skills.
During his studies in Japan, Lu Jingren was deeply immersed and inspired by Japanese culture, and he assiduously studied the traditional art and culture of Japan, and this learning experience led to a earth-shaking change in his painting style.
After returning to China, Lu Jingren continued to display his painting talent and created many excellent works, many of which won international awards.
In 2014, Lu Jingren was honored to become a professor at the Academy of Arts and Design, Tsinghua University, a member of one of China's top art schools. During this time, he accepted Wu Yong as his protégé, imparting his unique painting style and techniques to study and create in Japan.
In 2016, Wu Yong co-founded a design studio with Lu Jingren's son, Lu Sheng. With the influence of Lu Jingren, they successfully obtained the opportunity to design illustrations for textbooks.
In the process of designing the illustrations, Wu Yong used many inappropriate expressions, which led to the inability to truly show the style of Chinese students, but some inappropriate content, and even inappropriate illustrations did not match the content.
The content of the illustrations has caused serious controversy, and Lu Jingren's special education background has sparked discussions. Some netizens believe that this incident involves cultural blending, and the works of the master and apprentice are influenced by Japanese culture, which leads to ** about cultural superiority.
Some people try to denigrate Chinese people in this way and harm the physical and mental health of children. Some radical netizens called them "traitors" and demanded that the state punish them severely.
Some netizens have a different opinion, they think that this matter does not need to be too nervous, it may be just a simple subcontracting mistake.
The publisher is mainly at fault in the review of teaching materials, and should assume its due responsibility. They even argue that the magnitude of the problem should not be overstated, and that all responsibility should not be shifted to individuals.
In the subcontracting, Party A outsources the illustration task to the individual at a low price, and then obtains a profit at the middle price. This behavior is common and widespread.
The result of this is obvious: the publisher spends a lot of money, but gets coarse-quality illustrations that are extremely cost-effective.
According to the regulations, the auditors are obliged to remove all non-conforming illustrations. However, in this case, the reviewers did not do their due diligence, resulting in inappropriate illustrations appearing in the textbook.
Such negligence is absolutely unacceptable.
To ensure the effectiveness of student learning, textbooks are important learning tools, and their content must be accurate.
The 27 design and illustrators involved have been punished, including Wu Yong, Lu Jingren and others, who are no longer responsible for the compilation of textbooks. Publishers and reviewers should be held accountable for such failures.
This is a solemn punishment for violations, and aims to highlight the rigorous attitude and normative requirements for the preparation of teaching materials.
Textbook revision, bringing a new visual experienceIn order to correct the mistake as soon as possible, the relevant departments immediately set up a professional team to redesign and produce new illustrations, so that students can enjoy a more vivid and intuitive visual experience in learning.
The illustrations accompanying the new textbook are not only beautifully designed, but also cater to the aesthetics of the Chinese. At the beginning of the school year, the students have received their new textbooks and are finally able to use their favorite textbooks.
This incident once again highlights that in the field of education, any small negligence can have a profound impact on a student's academics.
Therefore, we need to be more rigorous and meticulous in the compilation and review of textbooks to ensure the accuracy and high quality of the textbook content. We hope that this incident will attract the attention of relevant institutions and personnel, and prevent the recurrence of similar incidents by strengthening management and supervision.
