Chapter 212: The Rain Man Appears

The new book signings officially began at 8 a.m.

Xiaoxiao took the microphone and chatted with the fans about the creation process of the new poem, and after sharing the insights, Li Fan got up on the stage and said some innocuous words in a cheer.

The new bookmarks officially began at 8:10 a.m.

Fans bought the books in turn, and then lined up in front of Xiaoxiao, opened the poetry collection, and waited for Xiaoxiao's autograph.

The first reader, a die-hard fan of Xiaoxiao, placed the book on the table and made a special request: "Can you write a blessing?"

Xiaoxiao smiled: "What kind of blessing?"

"I wish Xiaoxin and I grow old together and tie the same heart forever. ”

Burst!

Li Fan couldn't help but laugh directly, he raised his head and looked carefully at the little girl in the school uniform, the clothes were written with the words Provincial Experiment Attached to the Elementary School, and the appearance of this little girl was also the fifth or sixth grade of primary school.

What a fuss, this early love is really too early, Li Fan instantly felt that he was abandoned by the times.

Xiaoxiao was also stunned, this can't be signed, isn't this a joke?

Seeing this, Li Fan took the poetry collection and said, "I'll sign it for you!"

Then he dropped a line of handsome fonts: Jinshui soup soup, and Jun Changjue.

After the little girl got it in her hand, she couldn't understand it for a while, and left with the book in confusion, and it was estimated that she would soon know that this was the last sentence in a breakup poem when she got home, Zhuo Wenjun's "White Head Yin".

It's very easy to translate, that is: see this choppy brocade water, the old lady wants to break up with you.

Xiaoxiao knocked the back of Li Fan's head with a pen, "You kid, you love to mess around, after the little girl went home and knew what it meant, she couldn't be so angry that she cried?"

"It's too early. ”

Xiaoxiao said: "Let's start to love." ”

Li Fan wanted to ask when you first fell in love, but so many people couldn't ask.

The next signing session is very busy, this requires to write some blessings, that requires to write some quotes or something, but there are a lot of requirements.

Li Fan was not idle, as soon as Xiaoxiao put down the pen, the book was handed directly to Li Fan, they are all celebrities, Xiaoxiao's fans thought to themselves, don't sit idle.

And those who came to Li Fan were not welcome.

For example, this boy, after he handed the poetry collection in his hand to Xiaoxiao, his eyes kept staring at Li Fan beside Xiaoxiao with a strong smile, as soon as Xiaoxiao finished signing, he immediately picked up the book and walked to Li Fan and said: "Li Fan, I am your iron fan, super fan, brain powder, please write a few more words, thank you." ”

Another example is this lady, who is more direct, after buying a poetry book, she directly crossed Xiaoxiao, came straight to Li Fan, and said excitedly: "Li Fan, I finally met you." ”

Li Fan nodded, "Thank you." ”

The lady opened her arms and said, "Hug." ”

Li Fan had no choice but to get up and hug him.

The girl almost fainted happily, and after asking for an autograph, she happily walked to the side.

Xiaoxiao saw this scene in her eyes, and said in her heart, whose new book is this signing?

Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed, but more relieved, after all, Li Fan was also half a student, students could have such a great appeal, and they were very happy to be a teacher.

The book signing lasted for a long time, until 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when it finally ended, because the books were all sold out.

However, Li Fan glanced out the door, and the line seemed to be longer than before, and there were countless people shouting their names.

After repeatedly thanking the fans, Xiaoxiao ended the signing meeting, and the two, accompanied by the staff, took the elevator directly to the upstairs office for a short rest.

Xiaoxiao said while drinking tea: "Li Fan, more than half of today's achievements will be counted on your head, let's talk about it, how to reward you." ”

Li Fan thought for a moment and said, "Just tell me about your first love." ”

"You're a gossip!"

"People don't gossip about teenagers, tell me, which teacher or student was your earliest crush?"

Xiaoxiao held up her cheeks and looked out the window, as if she had fallen into the vortex of memories for a moment, and the leaves on the branches outside the window were rustling and gradually blurred.

She muttered, "I guess it's my PE teacher." ”

"Who else?"

"It's gone!"

"No way, after the elementary school is finished, let's talk about junior high school, high school, college, and, now, yes, especially now!"

Xiaoxiao glanced at him, "Can I talk to you little boy?" Among these men I know, oh, count you as a little man for the time being, among these men I know, you are the most gossipy, oh yes, aren't you studying some new evidence, then you can study the evidence, when did this 'gossip' escape." ”

"Well," Li Fan scratched his head, "I can only tell the approximate source of 'gossip', I haven't researched it, and I don't have time to verify everything, right?"

The modern word 'gossip' comes from a variety of sources:

One said: During the Republic of China, in order to increase business, some teahouses posted various gossip messages on the outer wall of the hall in the shape of gossip, and the name gossip came from this.

The second said: 'Bagua' should originally come from Cantonese, and in Cantonese, the original meaning of 'gossip' is to tell right and wrong and rap everywhere.

Three said: Gossip is equivalent to 'picking up a coat'. That is, rip off the other party's clothes and expose the other party.

……

Eight said: The origin of the title of 'gossip' is that in the early years, when the Xiangjiang huang color books and periodicals were issued, extremely cool and eye-catching photos were published on the cover, and because of the restrictions of law and social morality, they had to add 'gossip' pictures to key parts, and each small gossip picture had a mosaic-like effect. This kind of magazine that reports on the private life of celebrities also gets its name, and 'gossip' slowly spreads rumors and so on by peeping into people's privacy. ”

Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes and stared at Li Fan carefully, and said in her heart Teacher Li is Teacher Li, how can you know everything? This is an encyclopedia more than an encyclopedia.

Xiaoxiao Jian walked sideways, and seeing that there was no one in the lounge, she lowered her voice and said, "Then why do you call the woman aunt?"

Burst!

Li Fan laughed directly, where is this!

Xiaoxiao's face turned crimson in an instant, she looked at the door again, and saw that there were no outsiders who were relieved, she swore that she just asked casually, thinking about embarrassing Li Fan, but she didn't expect to ask a tasteful question.

Li Fan smiled and said: "Famous poet! Lecturer of Beijing University! You are also so heavy-hearted?"

Xiaoxiao regrets this, but since the words are asked, then you have to slap a swollen face and become fat, "Li Fan, you can not know, or you can not answer, but this is a healthy topic, you can't look at it with colored glasses, for example, a certain news, about a man who bought sanitary napkins for his girlfriend and was scolded by a certain lady for being perverted, what do you think?"

"This is normal, if you need it, I'll go downstairs and buy it for you now, in fact, people who are healthy in their hearts will think that this is no different from nosebleeds!"

Nosebleeds?

What a metaphor this is.

Xiaoxiao sighed deeply, thinking to herself Li Fan, this kid, sometimes talking can make you cry and laugh.

Li Fan glanced out of the door, and after making sure that there were no outsiders, he was ready to start popularizing knowledge:

"I'll tell you all about it, first of all, 'aunt' is also called 'menstrual leave', why is it called menstruation, this is the name after the establishment of Huaguo.

It is said that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, men and women are equal and have to participate in work and labor, but due to the structural reasons of female friends, they often can't stand the pain when they come to things, so the organization will 'grant leave as usual, and pay wages as usual', and later 'grant leave as usual' is referred to as 'menstrual leave'. ”

Xiaoxiao nodded and asked, "What about the 'big aunt'?"

"You are very studious," Li Fan smiled and continued: "As a woman, I don't know why I call my aunt about menstruation, and I blush for you." I'll explain it to you.

said that one day, a little girl had her first menstrual experience. She looked down and wondered, 'Huh?' and nervously yelled 'Mom!!' , over time, it spread more and more, and the 'big aunt' came from this. ”

Xiaoxiao nodded, "That's what it looks like." ”

Li Fan smiled: "Of course not, teasing you." Actually, there are too many of these statements, and they are not reliable. Some people say that the term 'big aunt' refers to the menstrual affair, which originated in the Han Dynasty.

Said that in the Han Dynasty, there was a girl named Jia'er, her parents died when she was a child, so she lived with her aunt, she fell in love with a scholar surnamed Li, the two often dated secretly, and every time she was about to make out at home, she often heard the footsteps of her aunt coming home, so every time the girl would say: 'The aunt is coming, you hide quickly!'

Later, the two got married, and on the night of the big day, it was unfortunate that the girl's period came, but out of implication, the girl had to say, 'No, the eldest aunt is here.' And so the phrase slowly spread.

There is another way of saying it......"

Xiaoxiao sat on the side and listened carefully, her body unconsciously leaning to Li Fan's side.

Well, another quiet and elegant girl was led astray by Li Fan.

Squeak, the door opens.

The store manager walked into the room with the staff and asked, "Yo, what are the two teachers talking about, so devoted." ”

Xiaoxiao's cheeks were slightly red, but Li Fan was very calm, and said with a smile: "No, I said to Sister Xiaoxiao, the signing meeting could have been so time-consuming, just learn from other stars, get a seal, and press the seal directly on the book." ”

The store manager wanted to arrange for two "teachers" to eat, "Teacher Li" had something to do and shirked it, and Teacher Xiaoxiao had something to ask for advice and had no time.

Xiaoxiao's "teaching" is the opinion of modern poetry creation, and the object of this consultation is naturally the "Teacher Li" in front of her, but Xiaoxiao has changed the way of saying it, which is called mutual discussion.

After the two returned to the hotel, they got together and talked all night, from ancient poetry to foreign poetry, and then to domestic modern and contemporary poetry.

Li Fan sat on the sofa and said: "It is very difficult to create poetry in China, not only to learn from ancient poetry, but also to get rid of the shackles, which is very difficult, and it is necessary to absorb the cash concepts and methods of foreign poetry creation, and integrate with our local culture. There are many Chinese poets, but there are not many who are really worthy of the title of poet, and there are no more than 10 people who want to be passed down through the ages in the past 100 years......"

Xiaoxiao looked at Li Fan quietly, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, and her hair like a waterfall was lightly pressed on her collarbone, revealing a hint of lazy sexiness.

Li Fan was looked at and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xiaoxiao retracted her gaze and said, "It's nothing, I think again, which professor at Beijing University is qualified to teach you." ”

"No, no, no," Li Fan shook his head again and again, "There is no end to learning, Confucius also said that there must be my teacher in a threesome, and I am still far away." ”

Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "I haven't found any weaknesses in you Li Fan so far." ”

"Then tomorrow you accompany me to the Gongsu Radio and Television Center to visit the "Strongest Brain" column group, and then you can see if I still have no weaknesses. ”

"Didn't you come to participate in "Little Famous Scholar of Chinese Studies"?"

"Yes, but I contacted the program team before, and I met with the "Strongest Brain" column group by the way on this trip. ”

……

At noon the next day, the two got up, and after eating a light meal, the two rushed directly to the Gongsu Radio and Television Center.

The two had just arrived in the hall on the first floor, and Producer Sun of "The Strongest Brain" had been waiting for a long time.

Producer Sun hugged Li Fan extremely warmly, and shook hands with Xiaoxiao, he was a little curious that Xiaoxiao would appear here.

Xiaoxiao said: "I'm sorry to accompany my students." ”

"That's what I said, I don't have a chance to make friends with you, a great poet, hurry up, go to the office and talk in detail. ”

Along the way, Producer Sun chatted with Xiaoxiao and talked to Li Fan, and no one was left out in the cold, a typical "old fritter" in the workplace.

In the office, both sides are seated.

Producer Sun said: "Li Fan, the registration for our "The Strongest Brain" is about to end, and this year's strong players are like clouds, and it is not simple. ”

Li Fan said: "I know this, Huaguo is so big, if you look for it carefully, there will be a lot of weird talents." ”

As soon as Li Fan's words fell, someone knocked on the door and said, "Brother Sun, genius, we met a mathematical genius." ”

Sun Fang smiled: "Look, what to say, call us over and take a look." ”

"Wait a minute. ”

After a while, the staff brought a mother and son from the interview room, the mother was dressed as an ordinary peasant woman in a mountain village, and the son was about 20 years old, wearing new clothes that did not fit well.

The mother said in broken Mandarin: "Good leaders. ”

Producer Sun hurriedly got up and said, "Sit down, this kid?"

The mother probably got used to it for a long time, and said, "Cerebral palsy." ”

Li Fan and Xiaoxiao cast sympathetic glances.

Producer Sun: "What's your specialty? ”

The young man smiled innocently and said vaguely: "Arithmetic." ”

"Okay, can you show us then?"

Sun took out a pen and paper from the desk, handed it over, took the calculator from his side, and asked, "Which one can be added, subtracted, multiplied and divided?"

The young man's eyes flickered upward, grabbed his hair, and smirked, "It's all done." ”

"Okay, what is 5165+41+376-4519?"

Li Fan's memory ability and graphic sense are extremely strong, and even his mental arithmetic ability is also very prominent, he quickly listed an equation in his mind at this time, and the result came out quickly: 1063.

Just when Li Fan came to the result, the young man also gave his own answer, and his voice was indistinct: "1063." ”

Producer Sun raised the calculator in his hand and showed the results to Xiaoxiao and Li Fan, then retracted them and continued to increase the difficulty, "What is 138 times 275 and divided by 28?"

Li Fan was still listing the formula in his head, and the young man gave the answer when the voice just fell: "It is about equal to 1355.357." ”

Sun Sho's head buzzed, this ...... Too fast, exactly, he continued, "how many decimal places can you tell, lad?"

The young man frowned, froze for a moment, and then began to count: "1355.3571428......"

Li Fan Xiaoxiao got up, walked behind Sun Fang and glanced at the calculator, and several people were all stunned.

Xiaoxiao looked at Li Fan, and a line of words appeared in her eyes: Are you okay?

Li Fan shook his head very frankly, it's really not good, it's not as good as others, his strength is not in this regard, Li Fan's mental arithmetic ability is actually relying on his super memory ability and image information memory ability to replace the process of written arithmetic, which is twice as fast as the written arithmetic of ordinary classmates, but it cannot reach this level of destruction of human beings.

Li Fan's specialty is not in this area.

The staff said: "This is a pediatrics for this young man, 1+1 only." ”

"This is still a 1+1 fast performance!" Li Fan said with some excitement.
