In early July, a pre-appointment announcement by Shanghai municipal management cadres attracted widespread attention from netizens.
1 Today's headlines: 10+ million "municipal management cadres" publicity
The announcement was made by "Shanghai Release", which is the official WeChat public account of the Shanghai Municipal Government. The publicity of "municipal management cadres" before taking office is also a routine action. But this time it was a little special, causing the whole network to "watch".
Shi Yue
The protagonist of the "onlookers" is Shi Yue, whose online name is "Bright Moon of the Year". An internet celebrity history blogger 16 years ago, he later became a best-selling author.
2 Bright Moon of the Year: The unsurprising unexpected popularity of 15 years ago
In October 1979, Shi Yue was born in an ordinary cadre family in Yichang, Hubei Province, and has been very introverted since childhood, although he loves reading very much, but his academic performance has always been good or bad.
As a low-key and introverted child, Shi Yue also has no special skills, so she has always been regarded as a mediocre person by the teachers and parents around her, and believes that there will be no big difference in the future.
The results seem to confirm this. According to unconfirmed information, after graduating from high school, Shi Yue was admitted to the Hubei Police Academy, which was just a junior college at that time.
According to public information, hubei police college is a provincial public security undergraduate college in Hubei Province. The history of the school began with the training course for cadres of the Public Security Department of the Hubei Provincial People's Government, which was established in July 1949. In April 1984, Hubei Provincial Public Security College was established to officially carry out public security higher education, and in June 1993, the name of the school was adjusted to Hubei Public Security College. In May 2002, the school took the lead in carrying out public security undergraduate education in the country and was renamed Hubei Police Officers College.
Later, the law graduation from Zhongnan University of Economics and Law circulated on the Internet was Shi Yue's later on-the-job study and completed his undergraduate studies, and the latest appointment announcement that he was "on-the-job university degree" also confirmed this. In July 2000, at the age of 21, Shi Yue graduated from university and joined the university and worked in the Foshan Customs Office in Shunde.
On March 10, 2006, Under the pseudonym of "Mingyue of that Year", Shi Yue serialized historical posts in the "History of Cooking Wine" section of the Tianya Community, telling some stories about the Ming Dynasty in the three hundred years from 1344 to 1644. The forum post was called "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty - History Can Also Be Written Very Well", and in the next time, he went to work normally during the day every day, and when he returned from work at night, he traveled in the history of the Ming Dynasty as the "Bright Moon of that Year".
The language he uses is all the most popular words of the moment, and this popular and popular style of writing makes the history he writes interesting and different. At first, he didn't think about what kind of big sensation or impact it would cause, but one night he wrote a post called "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty" and posted it on the Internet, and went to sleep after posting it. Unexpectedly, when he came back the next day, there were hundreds of posts under his post, and everyone urged him to update it quickly.
In this way, he published continuously at an average rate of about 2,000 words per day, and soon more and more readers and fame became more and more famous, and by the end of September, his "fans" had more than 3 million, and it became a hit. And as soon as I wrote it, I insisted on it for 3 years.
Although he was already very famous, Shi Yue at that time always sincerely said to all the reporters of Beijing Youth Daily who interviewed him that he "did not want to be famous", and tried his best to hide his name, work unit, and the nature of his work, so that many media reporters had been worried about how to find him.
On the evening of September 27, a reporter from Beijing Youth Daily found "the bright moon of that year" in Guangzhou. "1.8 meters tall, clear facial edges, natural, cheerful, easy-going demeanor and conversation, laughter and laughter from time to time flashed the fire of wisdom, showing the maturity of people of his age."
Shi Yue is very clear in terms of writing time" between "public" and "private". There is absolutely no "private work" during the "9 to 5" working hours, and everything related to writing is left after work. He laughed and said, "I am me during the day and 'bright moon' at night." It is said that in shunde customs that year, Shi Yue was a mediocre existence, introverted and taciturn, not very social, less involved in the gathering K song and wine bureau, alone, the work is not obvious, the leader's evaluation of Shi Yue is: very general.
In September of that year, "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty" was officially published by the China Friendship Publishing House. Also in December of that year, Shi Yue joined the party.
Generally speaking, people always feel that history is too long, too profound, and even obscure, and when they look at history from today's perspective, they always feel that there will be a sense of distance. Although sometimes I read it carefully, I may not get anything in the end.
But Shi Yue didn't think so.
He loves the vastness and profundity of history, and he once said in an interview that in the history books you can see the lives of countless people, see the life experiences of countless people, and when he reads these people, he does not feel lonely.
When Shi Yue was 5 years old, he went to the bookstore with his father and insisted on buying a set of "Five Thousand Years Up and Down", although the price of the set of books was only five yuan and six cents, but his father's monthly salary was only thirty yuan.
Up and down five thousand years
In Mingyue's elementary school years that year, this set of books had been with him until he went to middle school, and he had read "Five Thousand Years Up and Down" twelve times.
Catalogue of five thousand years up and down
Since then, his love for history has deepened step by step, and he has never broken it.
After getting a little older, Shi Yue began to read other history books, such as the Twenty-Four Histories and the Zizhi Tongjian, those tomes of history books, the average adult could not read, but Shi Yue could calm down and read them over and over again.
Reading has made Shi Yue develop a calm and calm personality, he has a maturity that does not fit his age, other children play all day long, but he can quietly hold the book and do his own thing.
The unexpected popularity of "Bright Moon of the Year" has an unintended background.
In 2005, CCTV had a program that explained history in plain and understandable terms, "Hundred Tribunes", which was very popular as soon as the program was broadcast. Experts use historical stories and historical materials to tell you history, which is simpler and easier than reading it yourself, so a trend of explaining popular history has been set off.
Before the appearance of the bright moon that year, the people who wrote history were always serious, and the history books written were also serious.
It wasn't until "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty" was serialized in Tianya that everyone discovered for the first time that history could be written so beautifully.
In the pen of Mingyue that year, the past events of the Ming Dynasty in the past of nearly 300 years, let him write sometimes light and humorous, sometimes through changhong, sometimes blood boiling, he wrote people alive, whether it is the emperor general, or the small people in the city, in Mingyue's pen, have been injected with the soul, written out the touchable truth.
I have to make people admire that When Mingyue was only twenty-five or six years old, his pen skills could be so good.
"Those Things of the Ming Dynasty" hit nearly 20 million hits in the Tianya community that year; in September of the same year, it was officially published by the China Friendship Publishing House. In March 2009, "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty" was completed, a total of 7 books were published, and it has been reprinted many times since then. According to Dangdang online data, "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty" ranked 7th in the best-seller list of Dangdang history books, selling more than 10 million copies, creating a sales miracle of Chinese history books, with more than 395,000 reviews.
Because of the publication of "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty", Shi Yue was on the rich list of Chinese writers. In the "2019 Rich List of Chinese Writers", "That Year Mingyue" earned 14 million yuan in royalties with the annual royalties of "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty", ranking fourth, higher than professional writers such as Mo Yan, Jia Pingwa, and Guo Jingming.
Rich list of Chinese writers
It is said that when he became famous, even his wife could not believe that the person next to his pillow was actually the author of the famous "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty"!
How did the name "Bright Moon" come about? Shi Yue once said in an interview with "Face to Face": He felt that he liked the poem "At that time, the bright moon was there, and the clouds were once returned", which was very historical, so he took this name.
3 Civil servant Shi Yue: How to achieve the deputy bureau level within 20 years
The above-mentioned "announcement of appointments" shows that Shi Yue, who is currently deputy director of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee's External Propaganda Office and the Shanghai Municipal People's Government Information Office, intends to serve as the deputy director of the municipal organs. This means that The 42-year-old Shi Yue has officially become a cadre at the deputy department level. Previously, in April 2018, a job announcement from the General Office of the Shandong Provincial People's Government showed that Shi Yue intended to serve as the director of the General Office of the Shandong Provincial Government.
According to public information, an old leader who served as the deputy director of the General Administration of Customs served as the head of the Shandong Provincial Government from 2017.04 to 2020.03.
This also means that in three years and three months, Shi Yue has completed the promotion from the main office to the deputy hall.
The announcement also revealed that in April 2013, Shi Yue had served as the deputy director of the comprehensive office of the former Ministry of Environmental Protection's Propaganda and Education Center, with the rank of deputy division; from October 2013 to December 31, 2014, Shi Yue served as deputy county magistrate in Longhua County, Chengde City, Hebei Province.
In the "government leadership" column of the Longhua County People's Government website, the Yanzhao Metropolis Daily reporter saw that Shi Yue's name ranked last, and the reporter learned from the local government that Shi Yue's division of work was "to assist Deputy Governor Gong Hongguang to grasp cultural tourism work, and to assist Deputy Governor Liu Jun to grasp environmental protection and the production and operation of industrial enterprises." ”
Wang Zhenping, vice chairman of the CppcC Longhua County COMMITTEE, told the Yanzhao Metropolis Daily reporter who went to interview at the time that because of the relationship between work and like writing, he had many contacts with Shi Yue, and in Wang Zhenping's eyes, Shi Yue was a "young man with rich knowledge and clear thinking." "He is a suspended deputy county magistrate, there is no specific division of labor, mainly to assist other leaders in their work. But as long as the government arranges the work, he will complete it very seriously. ”
Wang Zhenping told reporters that Shi Yue is humble, can listen carefully to opinions, and communicate with others kindly, which also allows Shi Yue to make many friends in Longhua County. "He gave 'Those Things of the Ming Dynasty' to many friends around him, and I also asked him if he could give a lecture to literature lovers in Longhua County if he had time, and he happily agreed."
According to reports, Shi Yue worked in the Ministry of Environmental Protection before he went to Longhua County as deputy county magistrate, and the Ministry of Environmental Protection has maintained a good relationship with Longhua County, and there is also a precedent for the staff of the Ministry of Environmental Protection to hang up in the county.
In February 2016, Shi Yue served as the deputy general manager of China Culture Communication (Beijing) Co., Ltd., which was established on October 23, 2014, as a holding subsidiary of China Publishing Group (China Publishing and Media Co., Ltd.), a deputy bureau-level unit, mainly planning and executing large-scale cultural activities.
It is said that Shi Yue became a national celebrity after "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty", and this is naturally especially true in the customs system. Shi Yue, who was originally considered "very general" by the leaders, was seconded to Beijing to serve as the editor of the magazine "Golden Key" under the General Administration of Customs.
The same old leader above, in March 2020, transferred to Shanghai as the head of the municipal government. Shi Yue should also have come to Shanghai from Shandong during that time to work, serving as the deputy director of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee's External Propaganda Office and the Shanghai Municipal People's Government's Information Office.
4 At that time Mingyue: Those years, those Tianya writers
Why should a highly sought after writer retain his status as a civil servant? In the eyes of many people, concentrating on creation is enough to allow Shi Yue to reflect his own value and achieve achievements that are difficult for everyone to achieve.
For everyone's questions, as early as 2009, when interviewed by CCTV's "Face to Face" program, Shi Yue made an answer.
At that time, Shi Yue said, "I think work is work. My dad told me that no matter how famous you are or how popular you are, you have to have a serious job. ”
Between writing and working, Shi Yue said that he pays more attention to "living in peace and security." ”
He and the Tianya community writers who became popular with "Bright Moon of the Year" have a completely different life path.
Founded on March 1, 1999, Tianya Community is known as the "Whampoa Military Academy of China's Online Literary Circle", which has given birth to many well-known online writers and once positioned itself as the "Global Chinese Online Home".
In 2002, Murong Xuecun serialized the online novel "Chengdu, Please Forget Me Tonight" in Tianya, which was quickly read more than 200,000 times, creating a miracle in the history of online literature.
In January 2004, Ten Years of Chopping Wood published the "Idle Water Margin" series at the Guantian Tea House, which later published a book and became a popular book of the year.
The history of cooking wine has:
(1) The Bright Moon of that Year: "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty"
(2) Cao Sheng: "The Bloody Journey: Li Si and the Qin Empire"
The Lotus Story version has:
(5) The world's hegemonic singing - "Ghost Blowing Lights"
(6) Hippopotamus - Tianya Shen paste "Tibet Code"
Literary editions include:
Ning Cai Shen: A Tale of Martial Arts
Ma Boyong: "She Died on QQ"
Murong Xuechun: "Forgive Me for Being Upside Down in Red Dust" - "Heaven is on the Left in Shenzhen on the Right"
In 2014, Shi Yue, deputy county magistrate of Longhua County, was interviewed by reporters and talked about fame and fortune in his eyes.
"Really don't mention me, I don't want to be famous in history, and I don't want to be so popular forever." I said I wouldn't keep going red, and I didn't want to keep going red. In the face of history, many things are passing clouds, and I have always been glad that I can see myself more clearly so far, and I do not regard myself as a big name. I'm a person who has nothing to write about. ”
At that time, the colleagues of the Shunde Customs unit also learned after seeing the TV interview that Shi Yue was actually the famous "Bright Moon of that year", so they asked him half-jokingly: "Are you on fire now?" After making so much money, are you ready to quit your job and concentrate on creation! Shi Yue just said lightly: "Writing is just interest, if I treat interest as a job, I will soon lose interest and no job." ”
It is worthy of being a person who is familiar with history, transparent.
Bless Shi Yue.
The bright moon of that year was still there.
