Sleeping is a happy thing, at least that's what Yu Bai thinks. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

But there are always some people who will break in like robbers and disturb people's dreams.

A slow and pleasant mobile phone ringtone rang, which is Nokia's classic ringtone, but at this moment, Yu Bai listens to it more hateful than noise.

With his whole face buried in the pillow, he scratched his head with one hand and answered the phone with the other.

"Hurry up, explode ......"

I don't know if it was the other party's hurried and nervous shouting, or that particularly serious tone, in short, Yu Bai brushed down and came to his senses, sat on the bed, and looked left and right.

"Where...... Where did it explode? ”

"Damn, I'm not talking about an explosion, I'm saying you exploded!"

"Roll the calf, can you talk to people......" Speaking of this, Yu Bai looked at the time, it was not yet nine o'clock, and immediately shouted, "What are you crazy about early in the morning!" ”

"You don't know the hearts of good people, look at the official website of the new concept essay, you won the first!"

It was only then that Yu Bai understood the reason why Luo Shui was so excited.

"I've got to be number one?"

"Otherwise, I said if you have anything to do with the organizers of the competition, I put up with it when I got the first, why did you make a special statement, and also made a column about your deeds, this column seems to be written by a person named Juan, how to say that I am sick, I rely on it, then I have to have half of the credit for this matter. By the way, there is also your work "Peeping in the Rain" below, I see that many comments below are talking about you being a cow...... The organizer takes care of you so much, is it related, and if you have a relationship, you won't pull your brother, so let me take the first place and go back to make my parents happy......

Toot toot, a busy sound came, Luo Shui looked at the phone that was hung up, a little dazed. In fact, he bought a plane ticket at the beginning, but it was too late to read a novel at home the night before and he missed the flight, so he could only buy a hard seat temporarily until he ran into Yu Bai. At that time, on the train, he felt that Yu Bai might have come to Shanghai to compete, so he made the same bus intentionally or unintentionally after leaving the station, and finally followed Yu Bai to the youth hostel.

Now it seems that if it weren't for the delay, there would really be one less friend like this, and he is really happy for Yu Bai.

At this time, someone came in from outside, and looked up to see that it was his mother.

"I heard you yelling outside, what's wrong...... Listen to you, what first place did Yu Bai take? ”

"Well, it's this new concept as the first place in the competition." Luo Shui returned to the Tao very seriously.

I saw Luoshui's mother sit down and open the lunch box in her hand, "Look at it, I knew that the kid would be promising when we met yesterday." ”

……

"1st place...... Column......"

Yu Bai kept repeating these two words in his mouth, jumped out of bed and ran out of the room in his slippers, because his mind was full of things about the first place and the column. Although the first place was expected by him, he was still a little unable to control himself after the incident.

The ranking is to probe and fetch things, and what is going on with the column in the mouth of Keluo.

So much so that Yu Bai seemed to be a demon, muttering the two groups of words in his mouth, **** upper body, slippers and big pants ran out, and then went straight to the front desk, because he remembered that there was a computer.

"Boss, can I use the computer?"

At this time, the boss looked up from the computer screen behind the counter and glanced at Yu Bai.

"Are you Yu Bai?"

"Yes...... I'm Yu Bai. This made Yu Bai a little confused, as if he had no other friendship with this boss except for the first day of registration.

But soon Yu Bai understood what was going on.

I saw the boss, who was less than thirty years old, got up with a smile, and didn't mind Yu Bai's outfit at all, so he started to shake hands with him.

"I really didn't expect that my small hotel would have a celebrity who could use the computer casually...... You wait, I'll get you something, you sign me. At the end of the day, the boss shouted and ran out in a hurry.

Although Yu Bai wondered why he knew himself, he still went to the computer to see what the column was like.

However, as soon as I sat down, I found a copy of this morning's "Youth Daily" on the table, and the most conspicuous position on it was an article about his afterlife.

Youth Daily quoted the original text of the official website of New Concept, but attached a new title, "New Voices in the New Concept and New Era." ”

Yu Bai couldn't help but smile, and secretly said in his heart: The youth hostel has a youth newspaper with his Yu Bai's name on it.

Then he turned his gaze back and manipulated the mouse to open the webpage and enter the official website of the new concept.

At this time, the official website is still relatively simple, and it can even be said to be rough, there is no so-called classification, and there is no beautified page, except for the title of "The Successful Completion of the National New Concept Essay Competition" written on the top of the website, the following is just a random list of winners and works in each group.

Of course, these are all secondary, and soon Yu Bai found Luo Shui's column about his final incident.

After clicking in, I found that this was a narrative written by Shen Wenjuan from her point of view.

Yu Bai glanced at it a few times, roughly the encounter between her and Yu Bai in the cold drink shop, and later met Yu Bai who sent Luoshui to the hospital, and then rushed back to take the exam, and then completed the final process with twists and turns.

The writing is very delicate, writing a woman's unique feeling, and more importantly, she is biased towards Yu Bai, and there is inevitably a lot of praise or encouragement between words.

In the end, it is natural that Yu Bai not only completed the answer sheet in less than an hour, but also wrote a very high-level article.

Below the article is the commentary, the theme of the New Concept Essay Contest and its huge scale not only attracted a large number of people to participate, but also attracted attention from all over the country.

The results were announced at eight o'clock, and in less than an hour, the comments under this column exceeded hundreds of replies.

I read a few reviews at random, and they are all roughly the following three types.

A netizen named Xuehua replied, "It's hard to imagine what kind of excellent boy this is, I'd rather miss the game for my friends, and then write such a good article in such a short period of time, Yu Bai, I remember your name, come on." ”

A netizen named Rainbow After the Rain replied, "Someone is satirizing modern education, am I wrong?" Am I dazzled? No, not only did I not read it wrong, I was not dazzled, but it was in such a big competition that someone said my heart, Yu Bai, well done! ”

A netizen named Xiao Shiliu replied, "Frankly speaking, I was looking forward to this competition, after all, the specifications are so high, and my favorite magazine "Dream Buds" is dominant, but I found that there is a clown who jumps off the beam and is performing, which is unbearable, since it is a competition, there must be rules." I'm late, what kind of test to take, it's just nonsense, and what kind of mess is written here, it's like a piece of ****. ”

……

Yu Bai read these mixed messages with a smile on his face, and then realized that the Yu Bai in their mouths was himself, and the Yu Bai they liked and hated was still themselves.

At this point, Yu Bai felt a joy of success.

It didn't take long for the boss to take out a painting, which was painted by Qingsong, and when he came to Yu Bai, he said with a smile, "I've heard of the new concept essay for a long time, and it has been reported in the newspaper before, but I didn't expect that there would be a first place in my small hotel." ”

"Hehe, boss, don't joke with me, I'm not the only one in first place."

"Don't say that, I've read your article about peeping in the rain, it's really well written, although I don't understand it much, haha......"

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Yu Bai gave his first signature in a daze, and a few years later, this green pine picture of the stall was auctioned at an astonishing price because of the word Yu Bai.

Without further ado, it didn't take long for Yu Bai to receive a call from the organizer, saying that the award ceremony would be held at the Green Pine City Hotel at ten o'clock in the morning.

After looking at the time, Yu Bai hurriedly packed up his things, returned the room and rushed over.

Qingsong City, a name with a lot of Jianghu atmosphere, I thought it was a place name in a martial arts novel, but in fact, it was the place where the new concept essay celebrated the end of the first competition.

The weather was exceptionally sunny, as if it was also setting off today's special day.

Yu Bai was still wearing casual clothes, and when he came to the Green Pine City Hotel, it was already overcrowded.

The Lily Hall, the venue of the awards, is very lively as far as the eye can see, with scholars, writers, celebrities from the organizers, government officials, and a group of media people.

On the contrary, Yu Bai, who had just won the first place, was like a poor boy who had entered the Grand View Garden, and he didn't even know which foot he was looking forward to.

It's not that Yu Bai can't cope with this kind of scene, it's just that he suddenly has a feeling of going to the wrong room, after all, his image at the moment is too immature compared to the palatial Lily Hall or the people who seem to be successful people present.

When Yu Bai was wandering, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder, and when he looked back, he realized that it was Shen Wenjuan, looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Hey, see you again." Yu Bai said hello with some embarrassment.

may have seen his situation, Shen Wenjuan didn't break it, and pulled him and walked inside.

"Look at your stupid look, come with me."

"Where are you going? Won't we start awarding awards right away? ”

"In a moment, my teacher wants to see you."

“……”

Speaking of which, Yu Bai stopped talking, and the teacher in her mouth was naturally Lin Fangqing, the old man who was of great help to him.

In fact, there is no such thing at all, Shen Wenjuan is just taking care of this foreign junior brother, no matter how the two are friends, plus Yu Bai has the potential of a little fresh meat and has good strength, so I can't bear to see him alone.

After a while, under the leadership of Shen Wenjuan, Yu Bai came to a group of people, and when he looked at it from a distance, Yu Bai could feel that this banquet hall was actually a microcosm of society, the media people stayed together, the writers' association was a group, and the professors and teachers of various schools were a circle.

"Teacher, didn't you say last time that you wanted to see Yu Bai when you had time, and I brought it to you." After Shen Wenjuan finished speaking to Lin Fangqing in the crowd, she asked a very polite question mark to the few people next to her, "Hello seniors." ”

I don't know if Shen Wenjuan spoke too loudly, or the name Yu Bai was memorable, in short, as soon as her voice fell, several people who were originally talking and laughing stopped one after another and focused their eyes on Yu Bai.

Although Yu Bai is not young in his heart, where has he seen this formation, he didn't know who Lin Fangqing was before, but since he opened from the examination room that day, he went to the official website to check it.

As he thought, it was very big, not only that, but the few people next to him knew just by looking at their age, and they were not ordinary people, so far, Yu Bai was a little nervous.

Immediately followed Shen Wenjuan in the same way, bent down to say hello, "Hello seniors, I am Yu Bai, the contestants participating this time, please give me more advice." ”

Yu Bai's performance is not good, but it is also decent, at least he has introduced his identity clearly. Shen Wenjuan was idle at this time, and stood aside to watch the lively posture. It's just that Yu Bai is bitter, and his little eyes can't stop skimming at others, but the girl didn't want to save him from this fire pit at all.

That expression, let's say it clearly, this pit is you yourself willing to jump off, don't rely on me.

Therefore, Yu Bai could only carefully deal with the few seniors in front of him.

Lin Fangqing was the first to speak, pointed at Yu Bai and said to the few people in front of him with a smile, "This is Yu Bai, I know Lao Xu, the three of you should be no strangers to him, and he is the most brilliant in this competition." Aren't you clamoring to meet, who else wrote the peep in the rain, this person is here, and people have also made requests, you can watch and give a few words. ”

The words are casual, but there is no lack of cooperation, and the remaining three are all local writers' associations, and Lin Fangqing and Xu Fei are also friends for many years, and the circle is so big, it is natural to be familiar with it when they come and go.

"Haha, Lao Lin, you still look like a robber, we haven't opened our mouths yet, and we've let you finish speaking." Lao Xu joked with a smile.

Several people laughed, and then saw a man in his forties with a white face and a clean beard, and said to Yu Bai, "I read your article of urgency, from a realistic point of view, you said something that most people dare not say, from the perspective of the competition, you can write such a high-level work in such a short period of time, it is also worthy of recognition." There is just one point, I hope that in the future you can keep the original intention, as you expressed in your article, this society is impetuous, it can change too many things, including people themselves. ”

Yu Bai, who didn't care much about it, immediately stood in awe after hearing these words, and immediately nodded deeply and replied, definitely.

If you don't want anything else, you just said these words to the other party so bluntly, so that it is worth Yu Bai to do so.

Then the person next to him also spoke, "Yu Bai, you're a junior in high school, right?" First of all, I am Zhou Cheng, a member of the Shanghai City Writers Association, and I am also the deputy director of the Chinese Department of Shanghai University, if you want, I can apply to the school to escort you. ”

“……”

These words made Yu Bai even more stunned, he never expected that the school that people couldn't get into because of a competition would now be willing to take the initiative to escort them because of a competition!

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Zhou Cheng's words aroused strong dissatisfaction among several people, including Lin Fangqing, including the one who had just corrected Yu Bai. It seemed that because Zhou Cheng took the first step, he spoke in a hurry.

"I am from the Guangdong Provincial Writers' Association, and I am also the vice president of the Faculty of Liberal Arts, if you want, I am also willing to escort you."

"You two can't do this, I haven't spoken yet, hello Yubai, I'm the ...... of Bei Shida"

……

No one expected that what was originally just a simple introduction would turn into a scene of competition for students.

After a long time, it was quiet to calm down, Lin Fangqing pointed to the three old friends, and said with a smile, "You three really do everything!" Xiaoyu, don't believe them, what kind of escort, at most, it is to lower the score line for admission, and we don't have to worry about what school to go to, other people's children are so old, it is difficult that they don't even have this plan. ”

Speaking of this, the three people who were originally arguing with red ears stopped talking, and Lin Fangqing didn't mind, so he continued, "In addition, you have seen the media over there, there are various newspapers, and several TV stations, all of which are here for interviews, in addition to the members of the organizers, there are naturally also winners, and you are naturally the first to bear the brunt, so as not to go wrong later." ”

There is no doubt that Lin Fangqing is an understanding person, not only relieved himself, but also gave him some advice by the way, for which Yu Bai was of course grateful.

Soon, the awards ceremony began after a sound audition.

Just like the high standard and high-profile nature of the new concept competition, the opening place is that the deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee came to the stage to speak, what is the name Yu Bai did not hear clearly, he was too far away as the sign in front of him to see clearly, he could only hear him playing in an official tone after taking the stage, saying insignificant words, people who are not interested in this are naturally listening in foreign clothes, in fact, they didn't listen to a word at all.

In addition to the media friends in the audience who kept taking pictures of their faces, the people on the stage entertained themselves like performers.

Then the editor-in-chief of Shanghai Publishing House and the editor-in-chief of "Dream Bud" magazine appeared one after another, and unlike the previous one, the competition was finally mentioned in words, on the one hand, the scale, as well as the impact, and expectations for the future. After that, it is natural to praise the excellent works that emerged from this competition, as well as the outstanding players.

The award ceremony, also known as a celebration ceremony, can be regarded as a successful conclusion to an event.

This is the rule that has been handed down by the Chinese people for thousands of years, and if you don't do all the things, it seems that there is a lot of something.

The process is the same, and the Spring Festival Gala is still boring to watch, let alone such an occasion.

A sleepy hour and a half passed, and after the indifferent personnel program in front, it finally came to the final link, the award!

A total of 32 finalists received consolation prizes, 21 second place winners, and 12 first place winners. Except for the consolation prize, which is a nondescript prize for collectively going on stage, the second and first place winners are divided into several groups, taking turns on the stage, and being awarded certificates. The first place will have a glass trophy in addition to the certificate.

Probably these, except for two players in their twenties who were unexpectedly from Group C, most of the others were middle school students in Group AB, which made Yu Bai very surprised. But I didn't have the heart to dig deeper.

With a group of excited people around him, Yu Bai clearly felt their eagerness and anticipation for the upcoming stage to receive the award.

And what about Yu Bai?

Again, except for the fact that I feel that all this is a little too unreal, it's all fine.

The process went unhurriedly, and soon it was the turn of more than 20 people in second place to take the stage to receive the awards respectively, and occasionally the host was interested, and one or two representatives were selected to speak. Ten minutes later, it was time for the first place to receive the prize.

I thought that the first place would also go up in a group of several people, but who knew that it came one by one. What Yu Bai didn't understand was that every first prize winner received great attention, not only to speak, but also to be asked to say a few words.

Even Yu Bai could see that there were a few people who stammered and said things that even he didn't understand the logic.

Thinking about what happened to him in his previous life, Yu Bai was relieved, who didn't have the first time in his life. The New Concept Essay is like the starting point for many young people who love literature and writing. From here, they went to the position they expected to love in their later lives.

Of course, there are still a large number of people who do not have the opportunity to work in writing, after all, life is realistic.

After thinking about it, Yu Bai realized that he was the only one left around. Looking up, it was a girl who received the certificate and the trophy.

The girl is very delicate and quiet, if it weren't for this occasion, she would be more like a character sitting in the crowd without saying a word.

But at this moment, she stood on the front desk and spoke.

"Hello everyone, I'm Song Jingru from Begin, and my winning work is "Child". I'm glad to be part of this contest and I'm glad to have taken the term, even though it was so untrue to me because I was just writing my story. ”

At this point, the girl paused, looked down at the certificate in her hand, and then said, "Thank you, thank you, for letting me know that I can still do one thing well, and that is writing, and I think I will continue on this path in the future." ”

There is no sensationalism, but it is more moving, many media people on the scene, in addition to the TV station is the newspaper reporter, the most dealing with the newspaper people is the text, for the excellent works of this competition will naturally look through.

After Song Jingru finished speaking, the audience remembered to ask, although it was very sudden, but Song Jingru still answered.

"May I ask Song Jingru, I have read your article, is An An in the article you, and are you really as written in the article, your parents are divorced, living alone and waiting for the college entrance examination."

The question is very sharp, if it is a short-tempered boy, such a question involving personal privacy, not only will he not answer, but he may also throw his face and step down, after all, he is young and fearless.

But Song Jingru stopped, showed a comfortable smile, and replied as if answering something that had nothing to do with her, "Thank you for reading the story I wrote, although I call it a story, I still want to answer, that's right, my parents are divorced and now live alone, thank you." ”

After speaking, he turned around and stepped down.

Only the stunned reporter in front of the stage was left.

Later, the host came to the stage and announced, "Okay, let's invite Yu Bai, the author of Group A's contestant "Peeping in the Rain", to come to the stage to accept the award. ”

When he heard his name, Yu Bai stood up uncontrollably, feeling the gaze of the audience, and his waist was unconsciously straightened as if he had been patted.

Although Yu Bai kept telling himself in his heart to be calm, to be calm, his steps were still a little messy, and his body was still a little stiff.

The moment he came to the stage and received the certificate and trophy, Yu Bai finally realized the difference between watching others receive awards and receiving their own awards. Because no matter how many times you watch it offstage, how many times, and no matter how carefully you watch it, you can't appreciate the heavy weight of the trophy when it is in your hands.

According to the previous process, Yu Bai came to the standing microphone to speak, but when he didn't say a word, the reporters and media in the audience all launched a fierce "attack" as if Yu had already done so.

"May I ask Yu Bai, is "Peeping in the Rain" really like the organizer said, because you saved people and delayed time, so you were allowed to continue the exam?"

"May I ask Yu Bai, is there a black-box operation and insider story in your exam and ranking this time?"

"May I ask where the dissatisfaction with the modern education system pointed out in your article comes from, and how do you view it?"

"Someone also broke the news that at the level of articles from the preliminary round to the finals, it doesn't look like you can write it as a middle school student at all, can you explain it?"

……

No matter how much you hesitate, no matter how careful you are, what should come will still come, you can't escape, and you can't ignore it.

Because, there are always people who will do everything possible to find out those so-called defects and doubts, and then amplify them little by little.

And at this moment, not only Yu Bai was confused, but even the organizers were a little at a loss, because the questions of these reporters were completely unexpected by them, but anyone who understands can see that under this kind of battle, a 38-year-old middle school student alone will definitely not be able to cope with it.

Let's just say that there is no black-box operation in this matter, let alone a so-called insider, but even if there is not, in the eyes of these reporters who reverse right and wrong and rummage through the news breaking points, countless pits can be dug out for Yu Bai to jump into, and then the more he smears it, the more he explains, the more powerless he becomes.
