The predecessors have been made ancient, and the preservation of historical buildings is actually depending on the values, judgment, execution and pattern of future generations.

From last week, I was fortunate to have three months of academic leave and went to Tsinghua University in Beijing.Tsinghua is a place where the "student is king", and the matter of eating shows everything.

Remember that when studying at the National University of Singapore, there was a "Teacher Special Economic Zone" in the restaurant. Students could not use it during meals.Tsinghua is different. Most of the restaurants here pay for the food card with a stored value. Students' meal cards can go to all restaurants. Faculty cards can only go to some restaurants. Different rice cards also have restrictions.For example, last week, I went to the Lotus Restaurant and took a meal dish. I couldn't give money in the end, and left embarrassing.

For insurance, I almost only went to "Guanchuan Garden" to eat in the past few days.This restaurant can easily accommodate 3,000 people to dine, which should be the largest of many restaurants in Tsinghua.This building is divided into three floors, with many types of layers, including river powder, iron plate, spicy spicy pot, and Hong Kong -style meals. The second floor is an enlarged version of the economy and rice. Hundreds of options. I see.You can eat it for two weeks without repeating, and there are some timing dishes from time to time, so that students and teachers make up for it. For example, I ate a silver ear to stew Qiu pear yesterday; the third floor is a restaurant, which can be slightly over.

In the past two days, I read some information about the preservation of buildings because of the news of No. 38 Osie Road, Singapore.In Tsinghua, a campus with many historical relics, pay special attention to the past and present life of these old buildings.

The Guanchou Garden is actually just a building. It is not a garden. It was basically expanded on the basis of Xichun Garden in the Xichun Garden of the Emperor Kangxi Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty.Kangxi rarely left Mo Bao. When he gave this garden to the third, he said that he wrote the horizontal plaque of "Mizuki Tsinghua". It can be seen that he loved this prince.This plaque is now hung on the small lotus pond, because there is no money, and the words left by Kangxi are too small, and everyone has no verification whether he is the royal treasure he left.

There is a stone monument next to the Guanchou Garden, which explains its history.In 1707, Kangxi built Xichun Garden for the third son of the emperor. Later, Qianlong expanded the garden. It is said that there were more than 150 acres of Liangtian. Qianlong built the Guanlin Building on the field and chanting farmers many times.Because it is located on the side of the Royal Experimental Field hundreds of years ago, it is named "Guanzhi", and the name also reminds Tsinghua teachers and students not to forget the hardships of the crowd, and the farmers' labor.

I read, write notes every day, and the place where I attended some seminars -the School of Journalism and Communication, and is also a historical building.Since the launch of this building in December 1934, it has successively been the Department of Engineering and Electrical Department.Norbert Wiener, an American applied mathematician and the founder of the control theory, once worked in this building; former Chinese Prime Minister Zhu Rongji also studied here.When I was in college, I was studying the engineering and then I transferred to the Chinese department. I did not expect that I was very fond of the School of Engineering. After decades, I returned to a historic building to study in engineering.

The history of the School of Journalism and Communication of Tsinghua University itself is not long. It was established in 2002. This building was completely renovated in 2023.To trace back to the source of Chinese journalism, Mr. Liang Qichao, a modern Chinese academic giant, is also a Tsinghua.On August 9, 1896, he and a group of colleagues founding the Times in Shanghai were a major event in the history of modern China.In the era of Liang Qichao, there was no news and communication system. When he arrived in Tsinghua in 1925, he founded Tsinghua University with Wang Guowei, a master of Chinese studies.Tsinghua University Training: "Self -improvement, Hou Decai", from Liang Qichao's first speech to Tsinghua in 1914.

The 90 -year -old architecture is indeed greatly renovated. Yesterday, the fourth floor of our seminar was like a loft, and the beam next to us also added some steel bars to support.However, don't be blinded by the appearance. There are many advanced facilities in it. Compared with the place where we work in Singapore, there is no time to be.There is a cat and a dog in this building. The cat is called "Ma Tuan". The dog is a machine dog "Xiaobai". In contrast, it also sets off the traditional coexistence of tradition and modernity.

Ancient buildings have different timeliness. Some of them have been corroded for decades.If you just look at the building very pragmatically, it is a place where the wind and rain and rain; but if this building has sufficient historical deeds, whether it is a good thing, bad things, beauty, scandals, in addition to commemorating the value, it also has a police significance.

Originally, I was holding the attitude of "disassembling" with the old building that had been scarred or even defiled.The personal grievances in this long volume are just a small and small thing from the perspective of a big historical perspective.From Xichun Garden to Tsinghua University, it has a long history and a wealth of humanities. In any hour, people who have a significant impact on politics, humanities, and technology have made great contributions to work and live here, and make great contributions.

It is often said that the moment is an important era in history and experienced unprecedented changes. In fact, humans often overestimate the importance of short -term, and seriously underestimate the long -term impact.When considering the preservation of old buildings, we must use long -term historical vision, and systematically renovate and save, and also effectively apply it.

Sometimes we will subconsciously feel that Singapore's history is not long, and we will celebrate the SG60 next year. In fact, our history is not short.When celebrating the SG50, we began to trace the history of the island country to 700 years ago, so that our collective memory has depth and thickness, which is very meaningful.

From a long -term historical perspective, the preservation of a building or demolition should not change greatly. It no longer exists. It may just be a small regret in many regrets in history, but this will explainWhat kind of values ​​do we use to judge things.

The tangible buildings are just a momentary existence in the long history. At this time, decision -making and judgment are the research objects of spanning the times.To be worthy of the predecessors, the history of history, the choice of all in the institute, including the considerations of politics, history, architecture, and aesthetics, it is not suitable for decision by anyone's wishes.

The predecessors have been ancient, or not the preservation of historical buildings, in fact, it depends on the values, judgment, execution and pattern of future generations.
