In order to ensure the objectivity and authenticity of the data source, I consulted some authoritative materials and took screenshots with my mobile phone, which are explained here.
Here are some documents I want to quote.
The hometown of celebrities is a brand resource. Once upon a time, the unhealthy trend of "grabbing celebrities and fighting for hometown" swept across the country. More than a decade ago, the State Council instructed the Ministry of Culture and National Cultural Heritage Administration to issue documents to stop this chaos. Lu Ban, a great historical and cultural celebrity who has made outstanding contributions to mankind, is also involved in this trend. It's a pity to move after more than 2500 years. The Luban Research Association organized experts and scholars from all sides to conduct in-depth research and restore the historical truth on the basis of history.
It has long been concluded that Luban's hometown is Qufu.
One of the sayings: Lu Ban was a native of Qufu, Lu, at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period in China, which was clearly recorded in ancient and modern Chinese and foreign books and historical materials. Such as Lu Ban Jing, Science Stories of the World for 5,000 Years, Dictionary of Famous Historical and Cultural Cities in China, General Records of Shandong Province, Biography of Qilu History and Culture, Essays on Ancient Scientific and Technological Figures in Shandong, Overview of Shandong Culture, A Brief History of Jining Ancient Times, Biography of Confucius and Mencius' Hometown Culture, Ming Edition of Great Men and Celebrities and Qufu, and China's Country of Invention and Discovery. Luban was also selected in China Cultural Yearbook in 2009, China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Yearbook in 201year and People's Yearbook in China in 201year, and made an authoritative determination that Luban's hometown was Qufu from the national level.
Argument 2: Qufu Luban is rich in cultural resources and has far-reaching influence. In addition to the brand resources of "Luban's hometown" recorded in ancient historical materials, there are many Luban resources in Qufu: ① There are cultural relics such as Luban ancestral temple, which are the first batch of key cultural relics protection units in Qufu together with Confucius Temple and Miao Yan Temple. (two) a sound wood, stone, tile, iron and other industry organizations and inheritance resources; (3) The cultural resources of Luban Sacrifice standardize the official and civilian sacrifices; (4) There are many national intangible cultural heritages, such as the legend of Luban, the woodcarving of Qufu Kai and the glazed tile of Dazhuang. ⑤ There are powerful ancient building technologies and technical resources of Luban, such as the bucket arch composed of tenon-mortise structure, which shines everywhere in ancient buildings; ⑥ There are folk resources dedicated by folk craftsmen to the icon of Luban, such as Luban Archway, Xiansheng Road, Luban Lane, Luban Primary School, Gongboqiao and Luban Company. Lucheng street community in history; ⑦ There is the Luban Temple in Liu Yi, the fixed "Luban Cultural Exhibition of Workers' Saints" and the commemorative activities of the Luban Cultural Festival held so far 1 1; There is a "Qufu Luban Hometown Garden" with 6 functions and 6 sites under construction. These resources have become the bridge and link between the descendants of Banmen. Some of them seek roots to worship their ancestors, and some go to ancestral halls and houses to collect holy water, thus realizing the desire of the descendants of Banmen all over the country to worship their ancestors together in Shandong, Shanghai, Hongkong and Taiwan Province. Assist China Architectural Association to hold a national conference on "Promoting Craftsman Spirit and Inheriting Luban Culture" in Qufu for two consecutive years. Meng Yi, a UNESCO official and former French ambassador to China, wrote an inscription encouraging us to promote Luban culture to the world.
Argument 3: Modern experts and scholars respect historical facts and unanimously identify Qufu as the hometown of Luban. For example, Mr. Li Xueqin, a famous professor in the field of history in Tsinghua University, Mr. Luo, the leader of the national expert group of Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties dating project, Mr. Gong Changwei, a researcher at the Institute of History of China Academy of Social Sciences, Mr. Lu Nanqiao, a famous professor at Shandong Normal University, Mr. An and Mr. Wang Zhimin, a researcher at the Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, Mr. Yang Chaoming, a researcher at the Confucius Institute in China, Mr. Luo Chenglie, a famous professor in the field of science and technology engineering in Qufu, and academicians of the two academies. Mr. Wu, a famous professor in Tsinghua University and winner of the highest science and technology award in China, Academician Pan Yunhe, former executive vice president of China Academy of Engineering, Mr. Zheng Yijun and Mr. Wu Tao from the Ministry of Construction, and many other experts and scholars, some published articles, and some inscribed Luban's hometown Qufu. In particular, when the Shandong Provincial Political Consultative Conference compiled the Shandong cultural survey, in the spirit of being responsible for history, the expert group identified the nationalities of more than 20 controversial historical celebrities. Luban's hometown was identified as Qufu, Jining City, which was clearly recorded in the general volume and Jining sub-volume. Jining City also compiled and published the book "Gong Sheng Luban" separately.
The argument that Luban's hometown is Tengzhou simply doesn't hold water.
(A) Lu Ban's "hometown fan" theory. Turn a blind eye to the fact that Luban's hometown is Qufu, which is clearly recorded in ancient and modern Chinese and foreign classics, and invent a theory that Luban's hometown is a "mystery", and then solve this "mystery". With the method of "using for me", I interviewed several experts, extracted their words, and solved the "puzzle" hastily, and determined that Luban's hometown was Tengzhou. We think it's a bit "deaf".
(B) Lu Ban was born in the "Luzhai" theory. There is a Luzhai village in Tengzhou, where there are many surnames and carpenters. This is the holy land of Luban. Not to mention whether there was a village called Luzhai in the late Spring and Autumn Period, even if there was a big village named Lu, Lu Ban could not be born, because Lu Ban was not named Lu, but he was regarded as a public defeat. We think that Lu Ban was born in Luzhai is a common-sense low-level mistake, but it is easy to be believed.
(3) Luban and Mozi are "fellow villagers". This statement is even more doubtful. Whether Mozi was from Shandong, Song or other countries has always been controversial. Was Tengzhou Teng, Xiao Hao or Lu during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period? So far, there is no conclusion. It is puzzling to be a vassal of Lu for one person. How did Lu Ban, whose "home and country" are distinct, become a "fellow villager" with Mozi, who has different opinions and is inconclusive? Lu Ban was born in the late Spring and Autumn Period, and Mozi was born in the early Warring States Period. If we say "hometown", we think it should be "Qufu hometown", not "Tengzhou hometown".
(4) There is no record of Lubancha in Jujube History Department. Lu Ban, a well-known historical celebrity, was not recorded in the history books of Zaozhuang City and Tengzhou City of Tengxian County 10 years ago. We made an investigation into this. We believe that this is not negligence or omission, but history written with historical facts.
