Chapter 132: Same Topic

Chapter 132 of the main text volume

Next chapter

One day is not enough time for the winning work to get much attention.

There was just a joke about two bills on the Internet, and netizens who loved it were amazed and rushed to stick it to their personal space.

But the reviews of "Free" have not yet fully warmed up, and it will take time.

The second question of the call for papers has been announced.

Same topic, no change.

The parents, authors and critics who paid attention to the essay were in an uproar, and they couldn't understand what the official of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles was doing.

The authors who were qualified for the competition were also dissatisfied and expressed their incomprehension.

Because this topic is really difficult to write, the judges also know that it can be seen from the last round of manuscripts that the level is about the same, and it is mainly touching.

The appearance of a "free" is already a pleasant surprise.

The same topic was written twice in two days, and thirty-two authors began to scratch their ears and cheeks.

……

Time back to the morning of the third day of the essay call.

After several discussions, the theme of the new round of essays has not yet been determined, and the several choices prepared have not been recognized by all the judges. For example, dedication, friendship, respect for the old and love for the young, etc., all positive energy.

There is no way, China is influenced by the West in modern times, public opinion is quite open, and controversial topics are easy to condemn.

These traditionally recognized virtues were also not met by the populace.

Seeing that the scheduled time is coming, the outside world and the participating authors are waiting, and they can't delay it forever.

At this moment, an old man walked into the essay office.

Tong Bailing hurriedly greeted him: "Old Han, why are you here, and you are also interested in essays?"

"I'm interested, you're making a mess. The old man's face was indifferent, and after greeting him, he sat down next to the old gentleman and said, "I'm only interested in one person. ”

Vice Minister Feng said with a smile: "In the past few years, we have been poked in the backbone by the people, and we have no choice. ”

"So you came up with a crooked trick?" said the old man with a frown.

"Your reputation is there, you can't scold you, of course you don't feel pressure, we don't feel comfortable. Vice Minister Feng smiled bitterly.

The old man surnamed Han snorted.

If Boss in the domestic world is an old gentleman, and Boss in the fairy tale world is an old grandmother, then Boss in the education world is this old man Han Qigong.

Before the age of 30, he obtained the title of senior professor, taught at Yenching Normal University, and later went all the way from university, junior high school, elementary school, and almost even went to kindergarten. Many university professors are not qualified for the role of low-level teachers, but as the most famous researcher of educational theory, Han Qigong has achieved higher educational results here, which is not admired by all educators.

So he became an authority on education in the country.

At the age of 50, he was hired by the Ministry of Education as a lifelong consultant to evaluate the various educational programs that had been developed.

Han Qigong also has an identity that is not known to most people, the initiator of the Folk Ancient Literature Association.

Shen Zhe had just met him in Xiangshan Park a few days ago.

It's just that this old man is relatively low-key, rarely appears on TV, and is dressed in casual clothes, so he didn't recognize it at the time.

"Old Han, you said you were interested in someone, who is it?" Tong Bailing suddenly asked.

"Shen Zhe. ”

Tong Bailing suddenly said: "It's for hurting Zhongyong, you have this hobby now." ”

"It's not just this," Han Qigong shook his head slightly, "I also got two poems from him a few days ago, so I'm a little curious about this young man." ”

"Ha, don't be curious, he wrote another good article yesterday. ”

""Free", right, I've heard that ancient texts can be written, and the reading volume can't be low, what's so strange about writing a good article!"

“…… You still look down on modern style, be careful of being pointed at and scolded!"

Han Qigong smiled and said: "I don't mean to look down on it, it's just that the older I get, the more I feel that the style of the previous generation is more flavorful." He looked up and asked, "I originally wanted to see him, but I just heard from you people from the Federation of Literary and Art Circles that it was changed to an online essay?"

"Well, there's no need to summon it, but it's easy for you to meet that little one, just ask the old gentleman. ”

The old gentleman smiled: "Not now, when it's over, you can let Xiao Ren send him over." ”

Tong Bailing was about to ask Han Qigong what two new poems he had written, but he heard Vice Minister Feng say: "Set the title of the essay first, time is running out." ”

"You haven't decided on a topic yet?" Han Qigong frowned, "Child's play, right?"

A judge came over, handed over a piece of manuscript paper, and said with a smile: "Teacher Han, you can see which one is suitable." ”

"Oh?" Han Qigong took it and looked at it, "Heh, it's all good words, are you frightened?"

The judges present all laughed, and they were indeed influenced by the outside world.

Han Qigong thought for a while, looked up and asked Tong Bailing: "Lao Tong, the last round of questions is maternal love?"

"There is only one word of love, because maternal love is the best to write and can touch people's hearts the most, so there are more authors who choose this direction. Tong Bailing said.

"Then use this word, write in other directions......" Han Qigong threw away the manuscript paper and said casually.

The judges' eyes lit up and they said, "It's a good idea!"

……

The title was soon announced, and the participating authors and the public thought that the Federation of Literary and Art Circles was playing tricks.

Shen Zhe was also stunned when he saw it.

But he is not worried, with a large number of masterpieces on his body, he is not afraid of any form of questioning.

To participate in this essay competition, firstly, it is the request of the old gentleman, and on the other hand, he also wants to take this opportunity to occupy a place in the world. The essays are generally short, which opens a breakthrough in this aspect and is suitable for his age. The previous works were all novels, and their status in the real world was not high, and even if he didn't think so, it wouldn't change anything at all.

Once there are a few short masterpieces in the lineup, the situation will be different.

When you see the title, you will immediately have several impressive masterpieces that pop into your mind, but you must first decide on the theme.

Last time it was maternal love, this time father's love?

It's too heavy, and besides, there don't seem to be many masterpieces of this kind.

Shen Zhe smiled, fathers all over the world are very wronged, they love a lot, but they don't express much.

The deepest memory is "Back", but unfortunately the realism is too heavy.

It is better to choose the theme of love that suits him better.

Since you want to use your works to make a name for yourself in the industry, of course, you have to choose the works of the three great short story masters of that time and space.

Maupassant is good at intercepting typical fragments from ordinary and trivial things, and summarizing real life from small to large.

Chekov, in the early days, was good at satirizing and exposing the ugly faces of officialdom, and later reflected the misery of the lives of the people at the bottom.

O. Henry, whose style is comedic and tragic, is called "Smile with Tears".

Shen Zhe's personal favorite is O. Henry's works, which are often well-conceived, humorous, and most importantly, have a creative approach that has had a huge impact on the short story and even the whole world.

O. Henry-esque ending

In his later creations, he was the one who was "unexpected, reasonable".

The humorous stories of the United States and the criticism of hypocritical morality, at the end of reading, are really sour and sour to give people a heavy blow.

"The Gift of the Magi" is his masterpiece. (To be continued.) )
