Chapter 34: Fighting Poetry
At the beginning, Lian didn't have much interest in the title of "poet leader", and the only thing that made Lin Zheng's heart move was the large amount of dividends.
But since the people from the four major publishing houses and Chen Xiayu came, Lin Zheng's heart has undergone subtle changes.
If he really plans to expand his prestige and fame through literary fiction in the future, then he will inevitably have a good relationship with the people in the publishing house. Otherwise, you are a nobody, why would people publish your novel and promote it for no reason?
But if Lin Zheng really challenged Chen Wang and successfully won the title of "Poet Kui", it would be different. It can be said that he showed his talent and ability completely in front of the people of the four major publishing houses!
And I don't know why, Lin Zheng always doesn't want to lose face in front of Chen Xiayu, or it should be said that no man likes to be embarrassed in front of a beautiful woman.
When Lin Zheng was thinking a lot in his heart, Chen Xiayu had already read the poppy beauty that Lin Zheng inadvertently chanted to the few people present word for word, and it could be seen that Chen Xiayu was indeed very fond of this poem.
As Chen Xiayu finished reading, the scene suddenly became extremely quiet, and it was almost audible that a pin dropped.
After half a ring, Chen Wangcai muttered: "When is the spring flower and autumn moon......? I'm ashamed of this poem......"
Li Chaoyang of Phoenix Publishing House also came back to his senses, "How sad can you be, just like a river of spring water flowing eastward...... Absolutely. ”
In an instant, the originally quiet atmosphere was broken, and several people began to discuss this poppy poem enthusiastically, but Lin Zheng was put aside.
Only Chen Xiayu, a beautiful woman, looked at Lin Zheng with a smile on the side, and after thinking about it, she suddenly said to Lin Zheng: "Mr. Lin, once you become the poet of our Phoenix Tower, there are a lot of benefits, don't you really plan to try it?"
Without waiting for Lin Zheng to speak, Chen Wang also spoke: "If this poem is written by Mr. Lin, then I, the poet, can only give it to others." ”
"I didn't expect Mr. Chen to surrender without a fight. Liu Hui of Moxiang Publishing House said with a smile.
Chen Wang smiled slightly, and said with grace: "I am ashamed of the talent and bearing shown in this poem. ”
"So Mr. Lin, is this poem from you or from your friend?" asked Chen Wang.
Lin Zheng didn't think about it and said, "Of course, it came from my friend's hand." ”
After all, they all said this before, although Lin Zheng could also change his words, but Lin Zheng still insisted, even if it was just a trivial matter, Lin Zheng didn't want to go back on his word.
"But since the judges have already come, and this matter is also because of me, I can't let a few people run for nothing, I don't know if Mr. Chen, if you are ......interested," Lin Zheng said.
Chen Xiayu on the side narrowed his beautiful eyes when he heard this, and asked with a smile: "So Mr. Lin, you are going to challenge Mr. Chen Wang?"
After seeing Lin Zheng nodding, Chen Wang also showed an interested look.
Since becoming the poet of the Phoenix Tower, Chen Wang has not accepted anyone's challenge, and he himself has not had a new work for a long time due to various reasons, and his reputation as a poet in Tianguang City has gradually deteriorated as before.
Now that someone has finally come to the door to challenge, how can Chen Wang have a reason to refuse?
"Since Mr. Lin has this Yaxing, then Chen can only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman. Chen Wang said.
The people from the four major publishing houses glanced at each other when they saw this, and their hearts were also extremely excited, the literary world in Tianguang City has been silent for many years, and Chen Wang's arrival has made this altar stagnant water ripple a little, but the problem is that Chen Wang's identity is very sensitive, so the benefits brought to them are not large.
If Lin Zhengzhen can replace him, it will not be a good thing for them!
"Now that the two of you have decided, let's let a few judges come up with the questions. Chen Xiayu, the owner of the Phoenix Building, said: "Mr. Lin may not know the rules very well, so I will explain it to Mr. Lin first." ”
"Every time I challenge the poet, one of the four judges or myself will come up with a question, and then the two gentlemen will improvise a poem by themselves, and then the four judges will judge. ”
Chen Xiayu looked at the four judges and asked, "It is divided into three questions, who will come first?"
"Then I'll do it first. Li Chaoyang held the wine glass, thought about it and said, "Then take wine as the theme and write a poem." ”
Chen Wang frowned and pondered when he heard this, and it didn't take long for him to open his mouth with a smile: "Three cups of green ants introduce new words, and a song sings about sideburns." ”
"It's not too late to take Shaohua, and the breeze is not too late for the moon. ”
After Chen Wang's poem was finished, the four judges all showed satisfied looks, and then began to discuss one after another. Even Lin Zheng was a little surprised after hearing Chen Wang's poem.
He also has a little understanding of the poetry of the underworld, compared to the yang world, he doesn't know how much, Chen Wang's ability to make such a poem has already impressed Lin Zheng.
Seeing Chen Wang looking at himself with a smile, Lin Zheng also smiled confidently, and wrote a poem on the theme of wine, isn't that still hand-to-hand?
But Lin Zheng still has some entanglements, which poem to use, which poem can win, and it will not lose Chen Wang's face too much, after all, Lin Zheng still has a very good impression of Chen Wang.
But after a while, Lin Zheng had the best choice in his heart, and then said loudly: "I have a pot of wine, which is enough to comfort the wind and dust." ”
"Pour into the rivers and seas, and give drinks to the people of the world. ”
Yes, this is a poem that has been popular on the Yangjian Internet for a long time, and it originally only had the beginning "I have a pot of wine, enough to comfort the wind and dust." Two sentences, but later they were supplemented into many versions by countless netizens, and what Lin Zheng took out was his favorite and most atmospheric version.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Zheng's poem was taken out, the people of the four major publishing houses all showed surprised and shocked looks, and they all bowed their heads and muttered to themselves, "I have a pot of wine, which is enough to comfort the wind and dust." ”
After a while, the four of them began to comment on the poems of Chen Wang and Lin Zheng.
Li Chaoyang took the lead in saying: "Mr. Chen's poems are more delicate in emotion and neat in battle, which is already a very rare and good product for an improvisational poem." ”
Liu Hui also nodded and said: "Although in terms of artistic conception, Mr. Lin's poems are more far-reaching, I still prefer Mr. Chen's quatrains. ”
"If you just look at the idea and content, I like Mr. Lin's poem very much, especially the sentence 'I have a pot of wine, which is enough to comfort the wind and dust', but from the perspective of rhythm and emotion, I think Mr. Chen's poem is better. Sun Yiguang said.
After the three-point review, Lin Zheng couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect that three of the four judges were more optimistic about Chen Wang!
