Chapter 129: It's hard to choke in my heart, and I pick the whole country!
Starting with the gifts and ending with the leaves, Vientiane has a whimsical style in terms of questions, which looks very casual, not at all like a formal writing contest.
In everyone's mind, the topic of each competition should be prepared in advance, then sealed in a secret bag, and finally unsealed by the invigilator on the spot, this process is more in line with the aesthetics of Chinese students, and like Vientiane, take a few necklaces and earrings today, and pick up a leaf tomorrow, it is really child's play.
Therefore, after those eliminated students went back, they all said that the reason why they failed was not a matter of level at all, but that Vientiane was fooling people, and some people even went to the Internet to post and bombard it indignantly, saying bitterly that they knew that Vientiane was so unworthy of the name, and they would not waste this time at all.
Unfortunately, almost none of the followers are willing to side with the landlord, but overwhelmingly support Vientiane.
"The landlord is a typical grape psychology, if Vientiane suddenly hands the landlord a notice now, I believe that the landlord turns black to pink in a second, the so-called deep love, hate the cut, that is, the landlord is this kind of person. β
"Visual inspection of the landlord's understanding of the text is too narrow, don't you know, everything can be put into the pen, what you see and feel is the material, since the landlord knows that the essay is Vientiane, you should know, the article is inclusive of everything, if you stick to one thing and one thing, but fall down, it can be seen that the landlord is eliminated is a logical thing. β
This post did not cause much turmoil, but another post triggered by this post attracted everyone's attention: [Is it a casual return to the basics or a long-planned intentionality - thought of by Wan Zhuwen]
"Vientiane School Park essay should be the most sensational event in the education industry recently,I have to say,Vientiane School Park took less than ten years to achieve today's achievements,Its rise speed is still very staggering,Even as a complete scumbag landlord,It is also full of infinite curiosity and yearning for Vientianeγ β
"It's well known. The employment rate of graduates in Vientiane School Park has been ranked first among all colleges and universities in the country for five consecutive years, and more than 75 percent of graduates are directly employed in senior positions in large and medium-sized companies.
"Do you know why? Do you know what is the secret to the high employment rate in Vientiane? I can tell you that their trick is very simple, which is these students that they admit. Even if they don't read for a day, they will find a job, ah no, they don't need to look for a job at all, because of those jobs. It was originally theirs!"
"You see, students who can be directors. You can be a director before you enter the school. If you can be a CEO, you are destined to be a CEO, and I can only look up to it, and stop holding those unrealistic illusions, thinking that if you enter Vientiane, you can become a phoenix. β
The above is the background, and now I will talk to you about this essay in Vientiane. I believe many friends have seen the post posted by an unlucky guy not long ago, that's right, that guy's words reveal a strong sourness, so that the followers all beat the landlord. Anonymous kneeling and licking of Vientiane, the landlord can especially understand everyone's feelings, but everyone seems to have missed a very important point, that is, Vientiane is so casual to ask, is it a return to the basics of randomness, or a long-planned intention?
"In other words, is Vientiane choosing this way to solve the question in order to facilitate the achievement of certain goals, such as cheating?"
"Another evidence that the landlord raised this question is the two-time champion of the essay - Liu Jingting, I don't know if you have paid attention to this person's competition works, there are currently two articles: "Maggie's Gift" and "Necklace", of course, these two short stories do have uniqueness, especially the ending setting of the peak and loop, which is refreshing, but the strange thing is that why it is so coincidental, why every time Vientiane has a problem, this Liu Jingting classmate can solve the problem so consistently?
"To sum up the above, the landlord may wish to make a no-responsibility reasoning, Vientiane in order to play a signboard for the new Academy of Literature and Art, deliberately want to bring out a hero, and Liu Jingting is the lucky one who was chosen, I don't doubt Liu Jingting's strength, because Vientiane does not need to recruit a straw bag, the price is too great, and there is a risk of slapping himself in the face in the future, but I reasonably suspect that he was leaked in advance!
"It can be seen from the posts of several eliminated candidates that this Liu Jingting classmate submits the paper in advance every time, and the style of each article is not much different. β
"Of course, I'm a mayfly, I really don't have the ability to shake the big tree in Vientiane, but I just have a little bit of status in my heart Those students who have beautiful dreams and work hard to participate in the competition are sad and uneven, I hope Liu Jingting can write some other styles of works, it's always reversed like this, it will be aesthetic fatigue, if you change your posture, you are still so brave, the landlord is live broadcast and sealed. β
Although this post has all kinds of loopholes, and many inferences cannot withstand scrutiny, but, because after the audition and on-site elimination, Wan Xiangwen hit too many students and accumulated too much resentment, so once this post was released, it immediately caused reprinting and heated discussions among netizens.
Three people can become tigers, and 30,000 people can become tiger spirits, and what makes matters worse is that after this post was published, Liu Jingting's latest entry article "The Last Leaf" was posted on the official website of Wanxian Wen.
"Sure enough, it's still this style, well, I want to like this story first, and as for the rest, let's make up for it yourself. β
As a result, the question about the leakage of the Wanxiang text once again set off a wave of discussion, and finally attracted the attention of the media, but due to the complex background of Vientiane, there have been many powerful figures, and the media who dare to report do not dare to use words that show a slight position, just simply state this phenomenon without making any comments.
However, despite the complete objectivity of the report, more and more people are beginning to notice it, including the heavyweights who have been rejected many times by Professor Kang.
People standing in high places have the most important face problem, although it is not a shameful thing to be rejected by Kang Yuchang, but there will be a pimple in the heart after all, and they can only endure it, because if they retaliate openly, the cost is too great. After all, the other party is Kang Yuchang, who is full of peach and plums, and if he is not careful, he will end up in defeat.
I don't dare to be angry and bright, and there is still an interest in fueling the troubles, so this news has come full circle, and after the oil and vinegar of the well-intentioned people and the irresponsible onlookers of the unintentional, a certain climate has also been formed.
β¦β¦
At this time, Director Kang had just finished assigning a new competition question to everyone, and everyone was staring at the twenty-six letters on the big screen.
Although the first few questions are a little casual, they are ultimately adhering to the romantic mood inherited from traditional Chinese culture. It's easy to get it, but what are these 26 letters?
Everyone knows that Director Kang once worked as a professor in the United States, but isn't this a good Chinese essay competition?
"Professor Kang, this. Is this a requirement to write an essay in English?" Finally, a student on the verge of collapse asked the question.
Professor Kang waved his hand and said, "Of course not, you can treat these letters as Chinese pinyin letters." As for what you guys are going to write. There is still no special requirement, just the word count needs to reach 10,000 words, which is the only requirement. β
"When will it be done?"
"Tomorrow, I originally wanted to be tomorrow morning, but seeing everyone's expressions like eating flies, let's postpone it until 6 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. β
No one is pleased with this postponement.
"No other questions asked. Let's do whatever it takes. β
After Professor Kang finished speaking, he left the classroom, and the classroom suddenly exploded.
"Who can sue me, what is this?"
"I can't see through it at all, what is Professor Kang going to test us?"
"More than 10,000 words. Is it to write a graduate thesis?"
β¦β¦
The grumpy students kept complaining about their confusion, and a few other students looked at the screen without saying a word, and Liu Jingting belonged to the latter.
"What do you think?"
Xu Sen came to Liu Jingting's side at some point, and looked at Liu Jingting with a smile on his face.
"It should be divergent thinking, and Professor Kang didn't give any restrictions anyway. β
Xu Sen had to ask other questions, but suddenly realized something, smiled and said, "Then come on." β
"Each other, each other. β
Liu Jingting was stunned for a while, and finally shook his head habitually and smiled, got up and left the classroom.
I already have an idea, but it is inconvenient to start writing immediately, for two reasons: first, writing immediately now is bound to bring great pressure to other students, and in that atmosphere full of resentment and madness, it is really not suitable to write;
Second, the article that Liu Jingting is about to write has too much influence, and he can't predict what kind of shock it will bring to this essay collection and even the entire Chinese literary circle after that article comes out.
Therefore, he needs to brew and prepare a little mentally.
The discussion in the classroom has also come to an end, and the remaining students are either learning from Liu Jingting and going out to find inspiration, or sitting quietly in the classroom, writing and drawing on the manuscript paper, not knowing whether they are making an outline or recording keywords.
This continued into the evening, and the students who remained in the classroom had a clue and were ready to write, and the students who went out to find inspiration, including Liu Jingting, also returned to the classroom and turned on the computer.
At this time, Teacher Yan Minghui walked into the classroom with a heavy face and hurried steps, and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up at the podium.
"Where are the eight classmates?" asked as he counted the number of students, and after confirming the number of people, he said, "I would like to tell you something unpleasant, there are some problems in the essay contest, of course, it has nothing to do with you, or, well, it has something to do with one of you." β
The eight looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
"The students who were eliminated in the top 16 before posted a complaining post on the Internet, accusing us of being too hasty in the competition, and as a result, the post was used by people with good intentions to slander us for leaking the question in advance of this essay, and won the first place in two rounds, to be precise, Liu Jingting, who won the first place in three rounds, is considered to be the target of our leakage, and this matter is being fried on the Internet. β
Hearing this, everyone was surprised, although the eight people present also had different views on the way to ask the question, especially the last additional question, there were a lot of complaints, but they had made all kinds of psychological preparations from the first day of participating in the competition, they never thought that the road to Vientiane would be smooth, and they would not be naΓ―ve to expect that the essay competition in Vientiane would be as easy as the essays they had participated in before.
So, whether it's one of the three choices of the previous necklace earrings ring. Or a leaf later, they recognize it in their hearts, and regard these as the difference of Vientiane.
Another important point is that they have overcome all obstacles to get to today, even if they do not report hope for Vientiane, but as one of the top eight players in Vientiane, they can definitely become a glorious stroke in the resume book in the future.
The classroom suddenly set off an angry reprimand, to the netizens who didn't know the truth, and to those who held a grudge against the eliminators.
Yan Minghui stretched out his hand to suppress everyone's discussion and said, "So don't put pen to paper first." Vice President Hu is discussing countermeasures with everyone, and Director Kang will come over soon, so everyone will wait patiently for a while. β
β¦β¦
In fact, Director Kang Yuchang's first reaction when he heard the news was that he did not react.
At the time, he was video chatting with his wife and daughter, who were studying at MIT in the United States. After Hu Jian called him to tell him the news, he just said "oh". And then said to wait for the school park to hang up the phone.γ
"Is it an essay call?" asked Mrs. Kang in the video. As the future dean of the Academy of Literature and Art, she has been following this essay contest for a long time.
"Small things, nothing to do with the overall situation," Director Kang said lightly, then looked at his daughter and asked with a smile, "How is Ling Yue's recent studies." Can you graduate smoothly?"
"Dad, what are you talking about, and it doesn't matter whose daughter I am?" Kang Lingyue paused briefly and continued: "I am a genius girl born in the ninth half of Wen Baojing's pregnancy. β
"After so many years, it's still this trick. Use your mom to piss me off. β
"Otherwise, among the seniors I know, except for Professor Dolanton, my mother is better than you, and I will definitely be blue in the future, but is it still a little hot now. β
Kang Lingyue is not ashamed to say, but it is not surprising that she has such self-confidence, as the daughter of Kang Yuchang and Wen Baojing, she has the same legendary experience as Sheldon in "The Big Bang Theory", after finishing the fifth grade at the age of twelve, she directly entered Brown University to study comparative literature and classics, and at the age of fourteen, she completed her undergraduate studies and began to study for graduate school, and she is just sixteen years old this year, and the graduate school is about to graduate, and she is negotiating with her parents to return to China to work as a counselor in Vientiane School Park.
"I'll wait for the day when you surpass me. β
"Don't worry, soon, by the way, remember to come to my graduation ceremony when the time comes, and then our family of three will happily return to China together, and I will be happy to think about it. Kang Lingyue said happily alone, completely ignoring the disapproval that gradually appeared on her parents' faces.
A family of three chatted for a while about the trivial matters of study and life,Each went offline,Director Kang rushed to the school parkγ
When the judges saw Director Kang, the expressions on their faces finally relaxed, and Hu Jian said with disdain: "Originally, I didn't have to pay attention to these things at all, but now it seems that we are doing an essay competition, and someone is also making a fuss behind the scenes, so we always have to come forward to suppress it." β
Director Kang looked calm and said, "First appease the students." β
"I have already asked Xiao Yan to go over to appease. β
Director Kang nodded and said, "Dean Hu, you can tell me more about the whole story." β
Hu Jian said the general content of the two posts, and Director Kang smiled after hearing it: "I see, let's do it, since the matter is related to Xiaoliu, ask him to come over and talk about his opinions." β
A young judge quickly rushed out of the office to call someone.
In less than a minute, Liu Jingting appeared in front of the judges with some embarrassment, and everyone focused on him as if they were in a dream.
"Liu Jingting, you all know, right?"
Liu Jingting, who has the identity of "Gu Yongsheng", knows this kind of thing too well, nodded and said, "The villain is troublesome." β
"Do you have any ideas?"
"Their doubts are leaking, so I think we might as well make this additional question of Professor Kang public, invite all the questioners in the country to write one, and then everyone will make it public, if you can, I can give them an hour, and if they are still dissatisfied, they will spare another five minutes. β
Liu Jingting, who was like a shy big boy, said this sentence unhurriedly, and when it fell into the ears of the judges present, it was like thunder, and it exploded, even if it was a famous author in the first line of China, he might not dare to say wild words to challenge the writers of the whole country, but the Liu Jingting in front of him said it so naturally.
Director Kang was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Won't you feel troublesome?"
Liu Jingting also smiled and said, "Didn't they say that you want to praise me, then hold it in front of them, I'm fine." β
When everyone heard "I'm fine", they suddenly understood why this boy said that, he must have felt insulted, and he must have been very angry.
"Okay, it's so decided, Dean Hu, let out the meaning of Liu Jingting's classmates and post a hero post. β
Dean Hu glanced at Liu Jingting, with an unclear smile on the corner of his mouth, and took out the phone.
β¦β¦
At half past seven o'clock in the evening, the most eye-catching position on the homepage of the official website of Wanxian Essay hung out the "Hero Post", which stirred up thousands of waves with one stone, and the biggest climax of the essay contest was only now the curtain opened.
After a series of interpretations by netizens, this heroic post finally became "For the name of Wan Symbolic Text, the three-round champion Liu Jingting singled out the national writer!"
Then,The official website posted a rough summary of the essay contest to the present,Clarify that the last two questions are from Director Kang,A passing passage:"The hero post is Liu Jingting's own meaning.,It's not about arrogance.,It's just to prove and correct the name.,And all Vientiane people.,In order to defend the honor of the school,Everyone is always willing to do something crazy.γ β
