Passage1

Giving history a bright future

Mixing fact, fiction and imaginative writing, author uses creative license to render the people and

places of Ming Dynasty China in vivid detail, Wang Ru reports.

Events in 1424 have provided a surprising backdrop to a novel that is attracting a large readership. It

proves that old adage that in publishing, history's future is bright.

That year, decades before Christopher Columbus was born, saw a number of earthquakes strike

Nanjing which, a few years earlier, had been the capital of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Emperor Zhu

Gaozhi sent his son, crown prince Zhu Zhanji, from the current capital, Beijing, to Nanjing to record the

extent of the damage and provide comfort and practical aid to the populace. Later that year, in the middle of

the fifth lunar month, the emperor fell severely ill and he sent officials to inform the prince to come back to

inherit the throne. This is where, as they say, the plot thickens. The ruler's younger brother Zhu Gaoxu

coveted the seat of supreme power and organized an ambush to attack his nephew, the crown prince.

However, Zhu Gaoxu failed and Zhu Zhanji returned safely on the third day of the sixth lunar month to

claim the throne.

When writer Ma Boyong, 40, read about the historical incident, from the official Ming section of the

Twenty-Four Histories, he was amazed to find that fewer than 100 words in traditional Chinese were

written about the episode. His interest was aroused and he had an overwhelming urge to write a thriller.

"The historical document only tells us the time and the result without providing any other clues, so it leaves

plenty of room for my imagination," says Ma in an exclusive interview with China Daily.

The result of his imagination turned into Fifteen Days Between Two Capitals (Liang Jing Shiwu

Ri).After it was released in July, the fictitious historical novel has achieved a solid 8.2 points out of 10 on

China's popular review site Douban.

More than 1 million copies of the thriller have been sold so far, according to the Hunan Literature and

Art Publishing House.

Ma, of the Manchu ethnic group, from Chifeng, the Inner Mongolia autonomous region, has a pretty

enviable track record in writing popular history-based thrillers. Last year, his work The Longest Day in

Chang'an, was adapted into a popular TV series. It took viewers to the heyday of the Tang Dynasty (618-

907). On Chinese micro-blogging site Sina Weibo alone, his follower numbers have reached 7.78 million.

To his readers' delight, the book will also be adapted into both a film and TV series, Ma says.

Passage 2

Health official says returnees shouldn't be banned or face extra requirements

Local authorities should not ban or add extra requirements for people returning to rural areas for

family reunions during next month's Spring Festival holiday, the most important traditional Chinese

holiday, a health official said on Sunday.

China has ramped up epidemic prevention and control efforts in its rural areas to cope with the

heightened transmission risk that will accompany the mass migration during the holiday.

People must produce a negative result for a COVID-19 test taken within seven days before returning

to rural areas for family reunions, according to a notice issued by the National Health Commission.

Such travelers should also monitor their body temperatures and overall health at home for 14 days and

take a COVID-19 test every seven days, the notice said.

Commission spokesman Mi Feng said such policies are meant to reduce the risk of transmission, not

to hinder family reunions beyond the requirements of epidemic prevention and control measures.

Banning people from returning to rural areas or increasing requirements are lazy policies and a waste

of epidemic containment resources, he said at a news conference held by the State Council's joint

prevention and control mechanism against COVID-19.

With the exception of Beijing, no provincial-level regions should prevent people in other regions from

returning to their hometowns in rural areas during Spring Festival or put them in quarantine, Mi said.

From Thursday to March 15, people from low-risk areas traveling or returning to the national capital

must produce a negative result for a COVID-19 test taken within seven days, the city said on Wednesday.

They should also monitor their body temperatures and overall health at home for 14 days and take a

COVID-19 test every seven days, it said, adding that travelers from medium-and high-risk areas will be

barred from entering the capital during the period.

People traveling to urban areas in other provincial-level regions or to rural areas in the same region are

not required to have negative COVID-19 test results, Mi said, adding that travelers to rural areas in the

same region also do not need to undergo 14 days of home monitoring.

The country has administered more than 24 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines during its mass

vaccination campaign, said Xu Wenbo, head of the National Institute for Viral Disease Control and

Prevention, part of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

The vaccination campaign, which began for key individuals in mid-December, is progressing in an

orderly fashion, he said. The country will adjust its vaccination plan based on its epidemic situation,

progress on vaccine research and development and the supply of vaccines.

Based on initial reports, the rate of side effects from COVID-19 vaccines is similar to that of any

vaccine that went on the market in 2019, he said.
