Chapter 31: Poetry Contest
"Ancient Chinese poetry has a long history, rich connotation, concise language, very rhythmic, beautiful, famous works as vast as a sea of smoke, bright as stars. In order to carry forward the excellent traditional culture www.biquge.info of the nation, feel the breadth and profundity of the excellent traditional culture, appreciate the rich humanistic connotation of the excellent traditional culture, and comprehensively improve the literary literacy of middle school students. The 10th Imperial Poetry Contest for Middle School Students was held. ”
"After the competition, congratulations to the Ancient Literature and Poetry Society of your school for qualifying for the finals through the qualifiers. The organizing committee of the competition sincerely invites the ancient poetry club of your school to participate in the finals of this poetry contest for middle school students. Please return the receipt by letter, fax, e-mail, etc. before August 18, 2006, the 28th year of Fengzheng, and wait for your feedback. ”
After reading the invitation to the poetry contest brought by He Yiyi several times, Zhao Yiming didn't have time to speak.
Zhao Yatong opened his mouth in a hurry: "Obviously, have you finished reading it, the words of this competition invitation have not changed for ten years." Every year, I change the time and name, what else is there to see? ”
Song Chuxia burst out laughing: "Tongtong, now we are begging your family to be clear." If you ask for someone, you should have the attitude of asking for someone, and you can't do that. ”
"Cut!" Zhao Yatong didn't eat her: "It's you, Yiyi is the president, and you are a member." I'm not with you all the way, I'm from the martial arts club. As she spoke, she also posed in a Wing Chun starting pose.
"Alright, don't make a fuss." He Yiyi looked at them for a while, and still looked at Zhao Yiming a little nervously: "Xiao Ming, do you agree?" ”
Zhao Yiming was a little embarrassed.
He's still got a lot going on this month. "Fairy Tale Kingdom" has to maintain communication, and Xia Anping is there, and it is estimated that the communication will be more frequent for "Phantom City". And he also has to keep an eye on "Gardenia Bloom", which is uploaded on cool enough, and in the end, Shen Ping and the teacher will return to their hometown at any time, and Zhao Yiming will have to visit him as soon as he gets Lao Xia's notice.
How can he walk away!
According to the instructions on the annex of the "Imperial Middle School Student Poetry Contest", the contest will be held in Tanzhou on the 20th, and it will last for 3 days. 3 days and 1 day back and forth, that's a rhythm of 5 days. Zhao Yiming wanted to say that he couldn't spare time.
But here is Sister Yiyi's expectation, and Zhao Yiming really can't bear to refuse.
He was hesitating, and He Yiyi was also anxious.
In fact, the main player of their ancient poetry club fell ill a few days ago. She also thought of asking Zhao Yiming for help early in the morning, and she had already said hello to the instructor of the Ancient Literature and Poetry Club about this matter. The teacher is also the same as her, from that poem and that classical Chinese, she judged that Zhao Yiming's strength is stronger than his own main force, at least in terms of poetry.
Of course, if that student hadn't been sick, Zhao Yiming wouldn't have considered it no matter how talented he was, this couldn't be justified. But by coincidence, he fell ill. It is also time, and life is also.
He Yiyi planned to invite Zhao Yiming.
But Song Chuxia had a bad idea at a critical moment. The invitation is invited, but I asked Zhao Yiming directly, what if he didn't agree? After all, Zhao Yiming is still a junior high school graduate, and most children of Zhao Yiming's age are still very stage frightened in the scene of the poetry competition. Even if you have the ability to participate, you will be scared and unconfident.
She wanted to use a little trick to create a mystery, arouse his curiosity, arouse someone's ambition, and make him take the initiative to join him.
It's a pity that someone's sensitivity is extremely poor, and their curiosity is completely devoid. The three of them all did useless work, and wasted days of hard work in vain. Seeing that the game was only a few days away, He Yiyi finally couldn't help but have a showdown.
Seeing that Zhao Yiming couldn't make up his mind for a long time. He Yiyi couldn't help but glare at Song Chuxia with resentment, once Zhao Yiming refused, she didn't have long to persuade him to change his mind.
Song Chuxia's plan failed, and there was also some ridicule. But with her character, her eyes rolled a few times, and another idea popped up.
She said in a very seductive tone: "Obviously, the winner of the poetry contest can have a prize of 100,000 yuan." ”
"A hundred thousand bonus?" Zhao Yiming's eyes lit up, I didn't see this thing in the invitation letter and attachments.
Actually, there is. The organizing committee of the poetry contest specially sent a fax explaining the rewards for all rankings.
A total of 32 teams participated in the competition. The first prize is 100,000 yuan, the second prize is 50,000 yuan, and the third prize is 10,000 yuan. Ten more Excellence Awards will be awarded, and a beautiful gift will be given.
It's just that He Yiyi didn't bring it over. Because the prize money is too far away for her ancient poetry club. No. 1 Middle School's Guwen Poetry Club has reached the finals of the poetry contest four times in ten years, but her best result was the 15th place she won last year.
If you haven't even gotten a gift, how can you expect a bonus? Moreover, even if Zhao Yiming joins this time, her wish is not high, and she will be satisfied if she can get an Excellence Award.
Now Song Chuxia threw out this big pie. He Yiyi was a little anxious: In early summer, you can draw this big cake, which is equivalent to quenching your thirst.
But for Zhao Yiming, this weight is enough.
He immediately asked He Yiyi for verification, and after confirming that there was indeed a bonus. Zhao Yiming immediately put forward his own conditions: "Sister Yiyi, as long as you agree, if you win the first prize, you will give me half of the prize." I'll take the job. ”
"Huh?" Looking at Zhao Yiming's strong self-confidence, it was Song Chuxia's turn to be surprised this time: "Obviously, don't say the first prize, even if you get the third prize, the school will probably agree to your request." ”
Of course yes. The Guwen Poetry Club knows its own strength and wins an excellent award. If he wants to enter the top three, Zhao Yiming can only rely on himself.
"Sister Chuxia, just the first prize. Even if you only win the second prize, this bonus will be distributed by you, I will take as much as I want, and I will admit it if I don't give me a penny. ”
In order to make his conditions acceptable to He Yiyi, Zhao Yiming took another step back.
Just kidding, this kind of high school level competition. I have a system in hand, and if I don't take the first, I'm sorry for the many reborn seniors.
Song Chuxia and He Yiyi were surprised by Zhao Yiming's self-confidence. Zhao Yatong looked at his brother strangely: Don't you see it? When did he become a petty money fan? Did you pick up something unclean and eat it? Not to mention whether he can win the first place in the poetry competition, even if he gets the first money and gives it to him, he has to hand it over to his mother.
Others don't know, but Zhao Yatong knows. Zhao Yiming paid tens of thousands of manuscript fees, except for buying two mobile phones and spending thousands of yuan, the rest were saved by his mother Mingxiao. As far as she knew, the cash on her brother's body did not exceed 500 yuan, and she didn't see him clamoring to increase his pocket money. Is it addictive to earning money?
In the end, that's all she had to explain. How did she know that Zhao Yiming was not earning money to earn addiction, but earning experience points and skill points to earn addiction. His highest goal this summer vacation is not to be promoted to the second level of the system, but to be able to buy an intermediate skill book. An intermediate skill book costs 100,000 skill points, which is 100,000 Chinese yuan. Can he not want to make money by all means? 50,000 yuan a day, which is 10,000 yuan a day, how can you not be tempted. If he didn't want to look too ugly, he would have wanted 100,000 Chinese yuan.
His careful thinking is still relatively simple, so simple that He Yiyi can't believe it.
"Really, I heard you right, right? Xiao Ming, have you thought about it? He Yiyi asked again, and she felt that she was having auditory hallucinations. Xiao Ming not only agreed to join, but also had the confidence to win the first place. Is the sun coming out of the west today?
"Yes, yes." Song Chuxia hurriedly said: "He agreed, you still don't believe it?" ”
finally made up for it, but she didn't want He Yiyi to make extraneous branches. Although she didn't believe Zhao Yiming's bold words very much, the purpose now was to pull him in, which was the most important thing.
Zhao Yiming was a little depressed: "What I said is the truth, why doesn't anyone believe it." ”
"Okay, let's fill out this form first."
He Yiyi was not ambiguous, and directly handed him the application form for joining the company. The No. 1 Middle School Ancient Literature and Poetry Club received the notification of the finals, and only those who joined the club were eligible to participate in the competition.
After swiping a few strokes to sign his name, Zhao Yiming was considered to have gotten on the thief ship.
That's it.
He Yiyi immediately changed the attitude of the president: "That's good, Xiao Ming." Before 9 a.m. tomorrow, gather in the activity room of the school's Ancient Literature and Poetry Club. We will have the last two days of intensive training and officially start the finals. As she spoke, she waved her little fist,
"Hey, do I want to go too?" Zhao Yiming was dumbfounded, "Can I not go, and let me know on the day I leave." ”
"Nope."
This time it was Zhao Yatong's voice.
"Yay? Why? Zhao Yiming was a little confused. The elder hasn't objected yet, so why did his sister shout out. There's nothing going on with her.
Zhao Yatong shook her hair, and her face was full of disdain to tell him.
"This, Xiao Ming." He Yiyi said embarrassedly: "Tongtong promised to help persuade you to participate in the competition." The condition is that after success, we hired her as a manager and went to Tanzhou together. ”
Zhao Yiming looked at the elder sister with a helpless expression: Elder sister, you sold your elder brother just to go on a trip!
In fact, Song Chuxia on the side was helpless. Zhao Yiming agreed that it was obviously her result, what happened to Zhao Yatong. But she did her best in the early summer of Song, but she was not pleased. Yiyi, who had no conscience, only remembered my mistakes, but credited Zhao Yatong with all the credit. Where do I go to reason?
"Alright, alright." Zhao Yatong ignored Zhao Yiming's resentful eyes, and also ignored Song Chuxia's depression: "Let's go out." Let me tell you, there's a TV show that's been very good lately. Now it's almost time to play, let's go and see. With that, he dragged the two friends out of the door.
Leaving Zhao Yiming alone to look at the door for a long time, and then sighed: It's really unguardable.
