Chapter 68: There Is Only One Truth!
Miao Xiaoqiu carefully read the article signed by Lin Guorong from beginning to end.
After reading it, I had mixed feelings and even more complicated thoughts.
To say that this article was written by Lin Guorong, of course she didn't believe it 100%.
But now, even if someone told her that it was written by Lin Miao, it would still be hard for her to believe it.
In the text, Ali, who left his hometown at the age of sixteen or seventeen, has both the youthful impulse of a young man, and the thoughts that seem slightly more mature than his peers because of his personal experience, the desire to say goodbye when facing the girl he likes, the slight inferiority complex that loves her deep in his heart but is ashamed of himself, and the youthful spirit of insisting on struggling only to one day return in brocade clothes and stand in front of her to confess.
All of this, if it weren't for the personal experience, if it wasn't for the memory that was burned on the years, who could write such words and emotions plainly?
Not to mention, at the end of the article, when Ali really got ahead, when he once again rubbed shoulders with the person he liked yesterday, how could the heavy affection of that kind of person when he reached middle age be able to experience it casually when he was over thirty?
The person who writes this article must be a person with a story......
Miao Xiaoqiu did a text analysis of this "If You Are Well", and the more I thought about it, the more entangled I felt.
Lin Miao and Lin Guorong, one cannot have this kind of life accumulation, and the other does not have this level at all.
Could it be ...... Was it co-written by father and son?
Lao Lin told his son the story of his youth, and then used Lin Miao's language talent to write the article?
But the background of the article is 20 years later, 2014, isn't this idea too bizarre?
"Principal Miao, someone is here. ”
The radio music on the playground outside had long since stopped, and Principal Jin suddenly pushed the door in, and Miao Xiaoqiu suddenly noticed.
"Oh...... Okay, let's go. She put the newspaper down, stood up slightly crampedly, and walked out of the office.
Turn left when you go out, go up to one floor, walk more than 20 steps, and you will arrive at the door of the school conference room on the 4th floor.
The blue glass doors of the conference room were all open, and the room was small, forty or fifty square meters, with only a few chairs except for a small oval conference room table. The decoration on the wall is also extremely simple, on the left wall is a large portrait of Marx's Big Four, and on the right wall is a large portrait of the Big Four Founding Giants of our Party, all of which can be seen everywhere in the early 90s.
It was a little dark in the room, but the lights were not on.
Because there is natural light from outside the house, turning on the lights makes people feel uncomfortable visually.
There was already one person sitting on the chair near the door in the room, and there was only one in total.
It was a young man of about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, dressed in a shirt and jeans and leather shoes, and sat loosely.
He smiled and watched Jin Miao and the others walk up to him before he stood up unhurriedly and gently shook hands with the two principals.
This man is very proud, proud of his talents.
Principal Miao had a preliminary impression of He Shengming, a reporter from Dongou Daily, who could be in charge at a young age.
But she still looked calm, showed a kind smile, and whispered: "Trouble Reporter He specially went on a trip." ”
"Yes, yes, two leaders, just call me Xiao He! It's all my own job! Aren't reporters just running around all day long! Hahaha......" He Shengming's voice was loud and his smile was enthusiastic, but his tone was full of self-satisfaction.
Principal Miao is not mistaken, he is indeed proud, but he is so proud and confident.
He Shengming graduated from Qujiang Normal University with a bachelor's degree in Chinese at the level of 84, and entered the "Dongou Daily" as an intern in his senior year. Four years after graduating, he received the intermediate title of journalist, and if all goes well, he can wait two years at most to become a senior associate senior reporter. A senior reporter in his early thirties, looking at the entire Dongou City, is also a rare existence, awesome and terrifying. This time, "Dongou Daily" asked He Shengming to come to Bailifang Primary School alone to interview the "prodigy", which can be regarded as an affirmation of his business ability.
But Ding Shaoyi definitely didn't expect that He Shengming had already prejudiced Lin Miao before he left the door of the unit.
In He Shengming's mind, the so-called prodigy, on the one hand, is nothing more than relying on family resources to develop the child's intelligence in advance, if the child does have some talents, he can naturally achieve some achievements, and then show some so-called prodigy characteristics. On the other hand, from He Shengming's own professional point of view, the media itself exaggerated and packaged the "prodigy" with a large component, and some prodigies were simply three people who became tigers, all mouths were golden, and everyone piled up firewood.
Even a very small number of people who were admitted to the juvenile class of the Chinese Academy of Sciences - He Shengming specially checked yesterday that the average age of those children is around 15 years old, and the youngest is already 13 years old. That is, they are all already older children. Therefore, it is obviously not appropriate to classify these older children as "child prodigies", but it is more appropriate to say that they are "teenagers with higher IQs".
He Shengming thinks he has a professional level.
He pursues the truth of journalism, and pays attention to science, theory, logic, and evidence.
Like Lin Miao, a six- or seven-year-old "prodigy", He Shengming's first reaction after hearing it was to package or brag.
So he not only checked the information about the prodigy yesterday, but also went through Lin Miao's details more seriously.
A 6-year-old child can leave very few traces of society.
What He Shengming can find out, of course, is the conspicuous ones.
First of all, the first prize of the Oucheng District Primary School Olympiad Competition, with a total of 20 first prizes, and Lin Miao, a "prodigy", happened to be ranked 20th. Objectively and dialectically speaking, He Shengming believes that Lin Miao's strength and talent in mathematics must exist, but in this game, there may be a cat. Think about it, why is the first prize to be won by 20 people instead of 10 people? This year, there is obviously no provincial Olympiad competition, so why do we have to continue to follow the past practice? Also, when grading papers, can't we deliberately leave one hand and force Lin Miao, who may have been 21st, 22nd, or 23rd, to 20th place?
Doubts here!
This is the first point He Shengming questioned Lin Miao.
And then there is the second point, about two months ago, the 23rd edition of Dongou Daily published an article called "Door" for primary school students in the "Youth Literature Garden" section. He Shengming was very impressed by this article. But since the name of the instructor was written on the article, He Shengming didn't think it was strange. It may be that the instructor spent a little more effort to get the sixth-grade child to write an article that he couldn't write at all, making a false name and coaxing a high-ranking parent in the child's family.
But after He Shengming finally knew who Lin Miao was yesterday, he immediately had serious doubts about the reasonableness of this article.
How could a six-year-old child come into contact with such a big topic as "cultural differences between the East and the West"?
There are serious doubts here!
Following this line of thought, after checking Lin Miao's father Lin Guorong, He Shengming almost came to a conclusion - sure enough, it was very boring!
Lin Guorong, head of the urban management section of Xicheng Street, is about to publish a collection of essays recently, which was published by Dongou Newspaper Group Publishing House......
All kinds of evidence and signs quickly converged into a "chain of truth" in He Shengming's mind.
He Shengming has peeled off the cocoon and made up his brain all the way, and has completely determined that there is only one truth about this so-called "prodigy" incident!
That is, this is basically a marketing drama directed and acted by Dongou Newspaper Group!
As for the specific operation steps, it should be like this:
In order to increase the sales of Lin Guorong's new book, the people of the publishing department of Dongou Newspaper Group began to secretly play tricks two months ago, they first greeted Bailifang Primary School, let Lin Miao skip the fifth grade, and then through the relationship with the district education bureau, helped Lin Miao successfully win a "prodigy certificate" with the first prize of the district-wide Olympiad; at the same time, the newspaper also actively helped to operate, publishing an innocuous primary school student's work.
When Lin Guorong's work was completed and everything was ready, the newspaper suddenly released Lin Miao's shareholder style, and finally with the help of the gimmick of "prodigy", the attention of the whole society was shifted to Lin Guorong and his new book, and the new book was a big hit.
"These days, it's not easy to engage in literature, grass snake gray line, just for hype...... But this Lin Guorong is indeed at a good level, otherwise we wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to praise him......"
He Shengming, who consciously grasped the truth, both despised and helpless his own unit's practices.
He felt that today's interview was meaningless.
If it weren't for the fact that he had some kind of bad taste, he wanted to expose the details of the "prodigy" on the spot, and then look at the embarrassed expressions on the faces of the leaders of Bailifang Primary School, he really didn't want to come over. Of course, if he had more time, he could actually go to Lin Miao's neighborhood to interview those neighbors. However, this idea flashed in He Shengming's mind, because he felt that it was unnecessary.
"Principal Miao, where is our little prodigy?" He Shengming exchanged pleasantries with the two principals for half a minute, and he couldn't hold back.
Miao Xiaoqiu looked downstairs, and saw a small dot slowly swallowing and reluctantly walking towards the administrative building, with a smile on her face, "Come here." Xiao He, you have to be mentally prepared. ”
He Shengming smiled.
Is this an early admission of defeat?
Bailifang Primary School even dares to play this kind of trick, and it is really not afraid of being poked in the back.
