Boeing 737 First Class

In Shanghai, there are dozens of flights to Tokyo every day, some direct, some connecting to Seoul and Hong Kong Island, and this time to Narita Airport, the second-largest airport in All Nippon Airways with the second largest throughput in Chiba Prefecture, a few dozen kilometers away from Tokyo.

The space in the first-class cabin is relatively large, and although several young people sit in pairs, they all look at the books in their hands.

Smack.

A middle-aged man stood up and said, "Listen to me, there is still an hour before we will arrive in Japan, so I would like to explain the details that I have emphasized before. ”

"Zhong Yue, as a substitute, listen to it too. ”

Zhong Yue took off his earplugs and looked up at Kui Zhengdong, the vice president of the Chinese Calligraphy Association, the leader of the Huaxia group of the Three Kingdoms Youth Calligraphy Exchange Conference.

"I can't put my pen down, what else can I be a substitute for?"

Although the four of them are contestants, the whole team still has that problem - "aging" is serious. There are seven tutors in their seventies and eighties, and there are three middle-aged tutors, plus the vice president of the calligraphy association who leads the team, it doesn't look like a youth calligraphy exchange meeting.

Zhong Yue didn't look behind him. This time it was also his own pot, originally because of Huang Youwei's matter, Zhong Yue had no intention of participating in this exchange meeting, after all, he couldn't do the kind of selfless feelings of giving up his small family for everyone. However, Huang Youwei is in Tokyo, which makes Zhong Yue a little depressed, in the vast sea of people abroad, it is still more difficult to find a person without a little means or with the help of some media, so Zhong Yue thought about it, or borrowed the platform of this exchange meeting, and then looked for Huang Youwei's whereabouts.

However, because of the previous resignation, the original shortlist of candidates for the competition removed this young man who has been in the limelight recently, and was replaced by a calligraphy student from Jida University, Zhao Liqiu, who also won the gold medal this time, as well as a top student of the calligraphy department of CAFA, the grandson of the modern calligraphy master Qi Gongli, Qi Changyu and the northwest talent Tam Yongzhi, who was rated as the most Chinese classical beauty.

As for Zhong Yue, he became a substitute player for the foil......

Kui Zhengdong raised his eyebrows, and the pen in his hand slid back and forth, "Although calligraphy was transmitted to Korea and Japan from us, Japanese and Korean calligraphy has been developing for hundreds of years, especially Japanese ......calligraphy."

"Zhengdong, you're making a big fuss. As far as I know, both Japanese and Korean calligraphy is still based on our Chinese characters, and our calligraphy has a long history, whether in terms of law or penmanship, it is much higher than theirs. In terms of calligraphy, we are their ancestors! Just like table tennis, this domestic competition is more cruel than the international competition, you say? Haha......

Several old calligraphers of the calligraphy association laughed.

"yes, it's not a piece of cake. This time, the students selected are all the best in calligraphy, and in the past, they completely crushed everything. ”

"I think so. This time, I should have come to travel, and my old wife kept talking in my ear, asking me to bring a few toilet seats back. ”

"Hey, that's right. I also have to buy a rice cooker, Lao Cao, let's go together, haha. ”

The cabin has been transformed into a chat room for the elderly. Because it was the entire first class cabin, the flight attendant on the side did not come to remind him.

Kui Zhengdong frowned, these few small ones can still be closed, but these seven old ones give him the most headaches. I can't beat him, I can't say it, as soon as he opened his mouth, these older generations who rely on the old and sell the old started their own set of preaching mode, and along the way, they have refuted him several times, which simply makes Kui Zhengdong crazy.

The Calligraphers Association, different from the general organization, is very loosely organized, and each member, that is in the calligraphy industry has a certain achievement, not only in the industry for many years, but also award-winning works, and joining the association is just an honor or title, not relying on the association to eat, so these seniors who win by seniority are not afraid of the identity of the vice president of Kui Zhengdong.

"Although Japanese calligraphy was passed down by our Chinese people, after thousands of years of evolution and development, it has long been in its own vein and has its own characteristics, so it is better not to underestimate the enemy. Kui Zhengdong glanced at a few arrogant old men, and continued: "This time, in order to be in good condition for the competition, after our plane arrives, we have a week of free activities and adjustment time, everyone can shop and visit attractions, you are all in your twenties, and I don't need to emphasize safety awareness, but there is one point, we must concentrate on calligraphy training for two hours every day." Except, of course, Zhong Yue. ”

Although Kui Zhengdong attaches more importance to leading the team this time, in comparison, this substitute player who was temporarily inserted through a relationship is obviously not necessary.

Zhong Yue continued to doze off without much care.

He took such a ride, and it was just for convenience. In foreign countries, there is really a need for such an academic exchange identity, otherwise going over to find someone by yourself is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is not a missing person investigation, so the police should not mention it.

"You don't seem to care what they think of you?"

Zhong Yue turned his head sideways and looked at the only female college student in the cabin, "Because I'm a substitute." ”

He said softly, and the meaning of his words seemed to be that substitutes should have the consciousness of substitutes.

"That's not the case at all. Alice Tam said softly.

Zhong Yue, who was about to put on earplugs and sleep for another half an hour, was stunned, the distance in the first class cabin was a little far, he rested his elbows on the armrests, and leaned sideways slightly, "What did you say?"

"They don't know Japanese calligraphy, it's not what they thought it would be. ”

Zhong Yue looked at Alice Tam's serious face, this girl does have a classical intellectual beauty, and with that pair of round black-framed glasses, it gives people a very quiet feeling.

Seeing that Zhong Yue didn't mean to speak, Alice Tam wanted to snort her heart, so she said: "In Japan, what we call calligraphy nowadays, that is, their calligraphy is roughly divided into three parts: calligraphy education, calligraphy art creation and calligraphy theory research. ”

"You're very thoughtful. ”

"I think the views you said on Weibo and the organization of the alliance are very forward-looking, so what I just told you is indeed a matter of cultivating a base. Although there is no definite number, there are at least 20 or 30 million, that is, one in every five or six people who practice calligraphy, and our population is more than ten times that of them, and calligraphy lovers are very close to them, and this problem is very serious. ”

The voice of the two people communicating is very light, plus in the first-class cabin, the space is large, and then because the whole cabin is packaged, everyone is scattered and sitting, if it is heard by the old men who are eating melon seeds and drinking tea in the back, the two fledgling young people are talking about the inheritance of calligraphy, they must not think so, come to the last sentence, "Are you qualified to talk?"

"I think you're right, there is something we can learn from Japanese calligraphy. ”

Alice Tam lifted her glasses and said softly: "You tell those old-timers, they have never been abroad, they don't know Japanese calligraphy, and the same is true of Korean calligraphy, they will listen to you." ”

"Why do you think they'll listen to me?" Zhong Yue asked with some amusement.

"You're a bell. ”

Zhong Yue sat up straight and sighed, "It's better to say goodbye." I think it's playing the piano to a cow. ”

“……”

Anyone who is over-inflated, whatever you say to him, he feels that you are a fool.13
