Needless to say, in addition to the well-known national literary magazine "Sprout", there are also first-class universities in China, such as Peking University, Tsinghua University, Renmin University, Fudan University, Nanjing, Nankai and so on. The judges of the competition are not simple, the judges of the preliminary round invite six well-known young writers, and the judges of the semi-finals invite even bigger names, all of them are first-class writers, humanities scholars and famous editors of publishing houses, such as Wang Meng, former minister of the Ministry of Culture of China, former member of the Central Committee, famous writers, scholars, and honorary chairman of the China Writers Association, Tie Lin, famous writer, chairman of the China Writers Association, winner of the Lu Xun Literature Award, Ye Xing, a famous writer, vice chairman of the China Writers Association, and chairman of the Shanghai Writers Association, "Sprout" Editor-in-chief Zhao Changtian, Peking University professor and doctoral supervisor Cao Wenxuan, as well as well-known writers Yu Hua and Su Tong.

In short, they are some of the people who have considerable influence and voice in China's cultural, literary, first-class universities, and publishing circles.

These heavyweight judges were invited to the magic capital by the organizers in advance before the 25th and settled in the hotel. In the two days that came in advance, the old friends who got together again in addition to meeting with friends, shouting and asking for warmth, also seriously and actively performed their duties as judges, that is, to browse in advance and watch the articles of those students who broke into the semi-finals.

There is no doubt that the article "Talking about Revolution/Life" by Wang Bo from Sifang Middle School in Shu Province, as soon as Bu circulated it, it caused an uproar among all the judges of the semi-finals, and many judges muttered in their hearts, and even discussed in private:

Is this article written by that Wang Zi'an? How is it impossible for a 17-year-old to write this kind of spicy and old-fashioned way, scolding people without dirty, killing people without seeing blood, just like Lu Xun's resurrection?

They are all cultural people, and they are high-level cultural people, so there is naturally self-cultivation. Although everyone suspects that this article may be plagiarized by Na Wang Zi'an or found someone to ghostwrite, it is impossible to show this idea in public, at most one or two friends will discuss it privately.

However, in this way, all the judges attached great importance to the performance of Wang Zi'an in this semi-finals, especially after reading a large number of articles of other students in the preliminary round, comparing the writing, thoughts, knowledge, and logic of reasoning in the articles written by the two sides, and making judgments, the difference in the level between the two is simply not half a point.

Last year, there was also a student who wrote an essay that made the eyes of several final judges light up, and the students who rated it very high were cold, but the cold "Peeping Man in the Cup" was compared with Wang Zi'an's "Talking about Revolution/Life", but it was a big thing, and it was not at the same level at all. Compared with peers, the cold "Peeping in a Cup" is not only written but also insightful, although it is also profound, but there are too many things deliberately expressed in it, especially the problem of dropping a bunch of bookbags at every turn, it is like a minor deliberately pretending to be mature, mixing with the old, and showing off for the sake of show!

Cold is 17 years old, this prince An is also 17 years old, cold is already a rare young man who can write articles so old and old in recent decades, but Wang Zi'an is further than that cold, from the idea, reasoning, words, and all aspects of writing articles, it is much more than that.

This is not scientific or reasonable! Even Lu Xun, at Wang Zi'an's age, would not be able to write such an article as "On Revolution/Life"!

With countless doubts, even suspicions, on the day of the 25th semi-finals, shortly after lunch, several semi-final judges who had nothing to do finally couldn't bear it, left the hotel, and under the leadership of Zhao Changtian, the editor-in-chief of "Sprout", quietly came to the No. 2 examination room where Wang Zi'an was, standing outside the corridor of the classroom and quietly looking at the suit and leather shoes, dressed Zhou Wu Zheng Wang, but at this time he had a serious face, frowned, and Wang Zi'an, who had not written down twenty minutes after the exam.

"It's bad, could it be that "Talking about Revolution/Life" is really plagiarism or ghostwriting?" Zhao Changtian, the editor-in-chief of "Sprout", stood in the corridor for a long time, and saw that most of the candidates were burying their heads in their books. He glanced at a few old friends who were standing with him again, and saw that both Wang Meng and Tie Lin were frowning, thoughtful, and clearly saw that something was wrong with Wang Zi'an.

"Wang Zi'an, you are a key figure in making "Sprout" popular and a big hit, and making the 'New Concept Essay Contest' further rooted in the hearts of middle school students across the country and creating brilliance!

Several judges, all well-known figures in the literary world, could not stand in the corridor for too long, affecting the performance of the candidates, after observing the little guy sitting in the center of the classroom who was a blockbuster in the preliminary round and was likely to appear in the semi-finals, he quietly left and went to the office at the end of the corridor to rest.

And after the judges arrived at the office, they immediately had some fryers and began to chatter, needless to say, the object of discussion was naturally Wang Zi'an.

Some said that it was obviously cardinal, some said that they were in trouble when they saw it, and some said that if the little guy couldn't write it, or if it did, what should I do if the gap between the level and the level of the preliminary round was too big? So, do they still need to give him an award? Because according to last year's practice, as long as he was shortlisted for the semi-finals, he would at least give a consolation prize, that is, the second prize.

Then, several of the judges began to discuss whether or not to give the consolation prize. Some said that they wanted to give, and people ran all the way from southwest China to the magic capital to participate in the competition, and they didn't even have a consolation prize, which was really chilling. Some people said that since it was clearly plagiarism or ghostwriting, how could they still give awards? They should not hesitate to expose it, put an end to this ugly vice, and give the literary world a bright future.

"Eh, everyone, why do I hear that you are all looking down on that Wang Zi'an, and none of you are optimistic about him?" Wang Meng, the former Minister of Culture and the current director of the semi-final jury, knocked on the table with his fingers and spoke.

"Elder Wang, emotionally, of course we want to be optimistic, but rationally, it is really difficult to be optimistic. It is hard to believe that an essay on a grand theme is written by a 17-year-old child. Ye Xing, chairman of the Demon Capital Writers Association, shook his head and said.

"Teacher Wang Meng, even if "Talking about Revolution/Life" was written by Na Wang Zi'an, it is estimated that it is indispensable to write it with the help of others, and it was written for a long time and with a large amount of information. The semi-final is only a short three hours, and it is difficult to write a high-quality article that does not know the topic at all in such a short period of time! Therefore, even if Wang Zi'an can make it, the standard and quality of the article, I think everyone should be mentally prepared and not be too disappointed. Otherwise, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Cao Wenxuan, vice chairman of the Imperial Capital Writers Association and professor of the Department of Chinese at Peking University, reminded everyone.

As soon as Ye Xing and Cao Wenxuan spoke, they were immediately echoed by the rest of the people, saying that they also wanted to witness the rise of a genius writer, but facts have proved that on the current poisonous soil of the land of China, if the system is not changed, and the examination system oriented by exam-oriented education and test scores is not changed, it is difficult to bloom any genius flowers, and even if there is, they will be jointly strangled by the combined forces of family, school, and even social atmosphere.

As a result, everyone began to talk about the current Chinese education system with great interest, which was naturally mostly critical, and almost no one praised it. He also said that the current "New Concept Essay Contest" is a bold attempt to break through the traditional education system, as long as the candidates with outstanding talent in writing will be reduced, and even exceptionally admitted, and the talent will be reduced without sticking to one pattern.

Wang Meng, who was the oldest and the biggest official in the scene, just listened and didn't speak much.

"Hehe, people, it should always be brighter. In any case, I think that before Wang Xiaozi's rematch article comes out, we should all maintain a positive and optimistic attitude. Although this land of China is temporarily poisonous due to historical reasons, it does not necessarily fail to bloom the flower of genius. Just now I carefully observed the face of Wang Zi'an, not like the kind of person who will do anything to achieve his goals, just an ordinary teenager. I'm looking forward to Mr. Wang's final article. Xiao Zhao, after the rematch is over, you bring Wang Zi'an's article over, and I will personally review it for him. Wang Meng said to Zhao Changtian, the editor-in-chief of "Sprout".

"Okay, Elder Wang. etc.—"

"Editor-in-chief, that Wang Zi'an finished writing the semi-final article an hour ahead of schedule. Now that I have handed in my papers ahead of schedule and left the examination room!" Before Zhao Changtian, who was smiling, finished speaking, he was interrupted by a magazine editor who hurriedly rushed into the office and acted as an invigilator.
