Is "an all-around book is old" a solution in Cantonese?

In Cantonese, "read all the books until you are old" is used to criticize and satirize those who are inflexible and inflexible.

For example, you can't read a versatile book until you are old. You only believe in TV news, and IKEA Weibo updates quickly! Don't just watch TV. It's old-fashioned. Now the news release in Weibo is faster. )

After Weibo, news spread much faster than traditional media, and people's habits of reading news began to change, so "all-in-one books are old" can no longer adapt to the development of the times.

According to legend, Shu Tong was created by Emperor Xuanyuan according to the twenty-four solar terms. The word "Shu" in Shu Tong is homonym with the word "lose", which is also called because of taboo. Ordinary books list the daily taboos, the position and time of God's duties, so people will check this old calendar book first when holding weddings, funerals and other important events. Over time, the general book has become the most widely circulated and longest-lasting reading material.

At present, universal books represent old ideas and habits. The phrase "universal books are old" is slightly derogatory, which refers to rigid behaviors and thoughts, even clinging to remnants, stubbornly refusing to accept new things, or unable to flexibly cope with changes in environment and conditions.

"General book" usually refers to almanac, but the content of general book is not limited to "calendar". Encyclopedia is very rich in content, including the calendar of Yin and Yang, heavenly stems and earthly branches, astronomical geography, changeable climate, seasonal farming, geomantic omen, fortune-telling, health care, Confucius and Mencius, twenty-four filial piety, the Chinese zodiac, five lines of gossip, hundreds of family names, red and white etiquette, daily knowledge, advocating the virtuous and persuading the good, and so on. Every year is different, and there are many updates. Many families have one or two or even three books, which can be used as literacy books and daily manuals. There are both essence and dross, depending on how you choose. This book is an indispensable source of knowledge in the era of relatively closed information in the past. You can really miss the past.

However, the content of the book is limited after all, and the knowledge involved is only the trivial things needed in life. Even if you read through the book, it's just a frog's opinion. Therefore, if you want to make progress, increase your knowledge and adapt to the new life, you must "keep pace with the times", read more books, learn more and accept new knowledge, and never "read all the books".

"A profitable book is always read" is an adjective, which means: sticking to the rules, not knowing how to be flexible, sticking to the rules, standing still, holding back, not seeking progress, complaining about others, not studying new problems and not accepting new things.

In today's information age, the concept of "a book can be read until it is old" is even more unacceptable. If you don't learn new knowledge, you will not be able to adapt to the changing social environment and will be out of touch with social life.

The "all-round book" is also called "all-round victory" because everyone is afraid of "losing". A book with the same sound as "lost" is really a bad start. It is lucky to use "win" instead of "win"
