encountered such a thing, Zhu Ziqing was also quite helpless. When I used to watch novels, movies and TV dramas, I always felt that there should be no such brains in the world, and such plots were made up by novelists. But I didn't expect to meet him today.

I'm sorry I misunderstood you. It's not that you're talking nonsense, it turns out that there are really so many brains in this world. Zhu Ziqing silently apologized to the authors of the online novels he had scolded in his previous life.

The onlookers saw that there was no excitement to see, so they all walked away. But no one dared to underestimate him at this time. Originally, some people who thought he was young and weak and could be bullied quietly put away their thoughts. It's true that the other party is young, but it's not easy to bully at all.

Zhu Ziqing came with his watch, so it didn't take long for the exam to begin. The examination room is a huge conference room, which is more than enough for a hundred people. As soon as I found a seat and sat down, four invigilators walked in.

In addition to the propositions of the preliminary round of the essay contest are announced in advance, the propositions of the remaining rounds of exams are determined by on-site lottery.

Specifically, the organizing committee wrote hundreds of propositions in advance and put them in a transparent glass box. At the beginning of the exam, the examiner will draw lots in public, and whichever one is drawn.

Regarding the proposition, there is a small allusion. At the earliest time, the proposition was produced by the editor-in-chief of "Shuowen Jie Zi". It is said that once the editor-in-chief sneezed when the question was asked, and then the title of the finals of that year was "Ah Sneeze".

After the matter was exposed, the contestants were not happy. It's too casual and disrespectful. Then, in order to appease the anger of the people, they came up with this solution.

This does not mean that there are no 'outlandy' propositions. Perhaps it was influenced by the editor-in-chief, and many of the people who came up with the questions did not play cards according to common sense. There are all kinds of propositions. Even the proposition of writing a sacrifice for oneself has appeared.

Such a maverick approach once again attracted the opposition of the contestants. When they were ready to use public opinion to force the organizing committee to change this 'frivolous' proposition, they found that they could no longer find supporters.

It turns out that it is precisely because of this unconventional way of proposition that the essay contest has added a touch of interest and attracted the attention of many people who are not interested in literary competitions. Whenever such a proposition appears, it will arouse the discussion of the whole people.

Literature is becoming less and less attractive to ordinary people, and such a thing not only existed in previous lives, but also faced such problems in this life. The problem that many people racked their brains and couldn't solve was actually alleviated by mistake by the essay contest. The entire literary world has benefited from this, how can anyone come out to oppose it.

Even many foreign literati and scholars are unwilling to be lonely and jump out and intervene to write articles with such propositions. Literary competitions in many countries have directly announced the introduction of this open proposition method.

This is even more remarkable, to put it mildly, this is cultural export, and it is something that any powerful country attaches great importance to. As one of the most powerful countries, China has a particularly urgent need for this aspect.

As a result, the Citizen's Daily, the Party Newspaper and other state mouthpieces all made special reports on this matter. Even the news broadcast set aside ten seconds for it. CCTV produces a program to introduce the contest every year, and the ratings remain high.

In such a situation, the handful of opponents naturally went unnoticed.

Under the gaze of a hundred pairs of eyes in the audience, this time the proposition was extracted by the examiner. There is only one word: swallow.

Although there is only one word, it is too concise to the point. But it's much better than those 'weird' propositions.

When all the contestants saw this proposition, they all breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. But for the countless viewers waiting in front of the computer, this proposition is too disappointing for them.

The propositions of the essay contest are all announced on the Internet at the same time, and many people who are attracted by the propositions will wait in front of the computer for the first time. Unfortunately, this time they are going to be disappointed again.

"It's been two years since I saw the 'wonderful' proposition, so disappointed. ”

"Why don't we call together and let them add a 'wonderful' question. ”

"Brain-dead children upstairs, don't be surprised. I like to say that the essay contest is because it seeks truth from facts and does not engage in falsehood. If you follow the human operation mentioned upstairs, then what is the difference between it and other games. ”

"Serious support upstairs. I first paid attention to the competition because of the 'wonderful' proposition. After so many years, attention has long become a habit. I like it because it doesn't do behind-the-scenes trading. ”

The discussion among netizens is lively, and it has little to do with the people in the examination room. Confirm that the proposition is correct, and bury your head in the idea. can enter the list of 100 people from thousands of troops, which one is not arrogant, and no one wants to be eliminated.

Zhu Ziqing has also heard the name of the 'wonderful' proposition for a long time, and he has been muttering in his heart, for fear that the proposition is too biased and he can't find an article that can be carried. When I saw the word 'Yan', I was finally relieved. Then an irrepressible joy welled up in my heart.

In his previous life, he had read a lot of articles that could be related to the word 'Yan'. But one article popped up at the first time. That is Gorky's prose poem "The Petrel".

This article, which has been selected as a Chinese textbook, enjoys high praise all over the world. But few people know that the full name of "The Petrel" is "The Song of the Petrel", and it is only the last chapter of Gorky's famous short story "The Melody of Spring". It just so happened that Zhu Ziqing had read this short story.

That's it, Zhu Ziqing made a decision in an instant. But then a question arises. Whether to carry "Spring Melody" in its entirety, or only "Haiyan".

It is said that it is safest to carry the whole article, but the theme of "Melody of Spring" is to satirize the tyranny of autocracy and praise the pioneers of the proletarian revolution. In a special historical context, it is the clarion call. In the modern society that has enjoyed peace for decades, it is still a question whether it can be accepted by everyone. There's a lot of risk involved.

The fact that "Haiyan" became a world famous in its previous life is directly related to its satire on autocracy and praise of the liberal revolution. If the historical context is removed, its literary value will be greatly reduced. It's also an adventure to carry it directly.

Both options are risky, and Zhu Ziqing is in a dilemma for a while. And his meditative appearance all fell into Jin Linqi's eyes.

What happened in the corridor was regarded as a great shame by Jin Linqi, and he hated Zhu Ziqing to the core. After entering the examination room, they have been secretly observing each other. When he saw Zhu Ziqing scratching his ears and cheeks, he took it for granted that he was stumped.

You can't solve such a simple proposition, and it seems that you are no more than that. Jin Linqi thought gloatingly.

In his opinion, this proposition is too simple, and he doesn't need to think about it at all, and he can casually list dozens of ways to solve the problem. And he has chosen the most meaningful of them. He believes that there will be no problem in being shortlisted with this idea.

Looking at Zhu Ziqing, who was still thinking hard, Jin Linqi's eyes rolled, and an idea suddenly popped up: "Boy, you wait." I'll ruin you in no time. ”

Zhu Ziqing didn't know that he was being calculated by others again. After some thinking and weighing, he finally decided to copy "The Melody of Spring". He didn't want to see a mutilated "Haiyan", and he didn't believe that such an article would be outdated.

Looking at the time, less than half an hour had passed. Zhu Ziqing first took the draft paper and pretended to write a few sentences in the article on it, pretending to be thinking. It took more than an hour, when most of the people were writing by hand, before he started writing.

The article of about 3,500 words was carried in about an hour and a half. This was the result of his deliberate slowing down of his writing, otherwise it would have been faster. Pretended to be checked several times, and three hours passed.

Finally, someone took the lead in handing in the papers. Such competitions are different from regular exams. Everyone knows what their level is and how capable they are. The extent to which an article is written is the limit, and the heart is at the bottom. So basically, they are handed in after writing and checking once without typos, and few people will drag it until the last minute.

As soon as the leader came out, it seemed to have a chain reaction, and one after another people got up and handed in the papers. When the people were almost a third of the way away, Zhu Ziqing didn't continue to wait, and got up to hand in the papers.

As soon as I got out of the examination room, I saw a group of people gathered not far from the door. Zhu Ziqing didn't want to cause trouble, so he prepared to bypass.

As the so-called fear of something, I didn't walk a few steps before I heard someone deliberately shouting loudly: "Zhu Ziqing, you stop." ”

turned his head and saw that the person who came was Jin Linqi. He walked out of the crowd and said in a mocking tone, "What are you hiding from when you see me?

Zhu Ziqing laughed and said, "Hiding from you?" ”

"You ......" Jin Linqi laughed angrily: "Okay, you all take a look." Young people nowadays are so rude. ”

It's a pity that none of the people around him who were pulled by him were stupid, and no one was willing to come forward to act as his accomplice. Seeing everyone's reaction, Jin Linqi was even more angry, but he didn't dare to be angry at those people. can only aim his anger at Zhu Ziqing alone.

"Who's the clown and who's funny soon knows. I'm betting with you now on who's going to be the best this time. The loser kneels down and kowtows to the winner three times, and retires from the literary world in the future. Do you dare to bet?"

Hearing his words, the onlookers boiled.

Such a bet is simply too much, and it is not the practice to insult people. The literary world is a place that pays attention to face. Even if there is a contradiction, as long as it is not a hatred of Dai Tian, it is rare to adopt such an extreme approach. This Jin Linqi is really out of popularity. couldn't help but feel more sympathy for Zhu Ziqing.

"Funny?" Zhu Ziqing looked at Jin Linqi like an idiot and said disdainfully.

"Don't you dare? Are you afraid? I suspect now that you copied the last one. It's a shame for my generation that an uneducated person like you can actually blend into the cultural circle. Jin Linqi finally couldn't help but scold.

"Since you want to die, do as you wish. After speaking, Zhu Ziqing turned around and walked to the onlookers: "Everyone saw the situation just now. I hope that all of you here will be a witness. Thank you. ”

After speaking, I didn't forget to bow. Then he strode out of the venue under the gaze of everyone. During the whole process, I didn't even look at Jin Linqi.

Just as I couldn't find a way to clean you up, you sent it to the door yourself. I feel a little sorry for you if I don't fulfill you.
