Chapter 36 Off the beaten path

But fortunately, Wen Xun still has the secret weapon of cloves. Wen Xun doesn't know what performance art is, but Lilac is from a big city, she should understand! Even Lilac doesn't understand, doesn't she still have a computer and a mobile phone, which can be checked online!

It's just that the mountain road has already walked halfway, and there is no way to turn back to Lilac to ask, so Wen Xun skipped this topic first and began to think about the next question. The second topic is about the discovery of a gold mine somewhere, and everyone rushed to it, only to find that there was a big river over there.

This topic is relatively new in this era, and Wen Xun knows that ordinary people can easily think about building a ship and then digging for gold at this time. If it is written by peers, it is estimated that you have to pretend to criticize money worship.

However, Wen Xun knows one of the best tricks behind this topic - to write that a certain protagonist uses this big river to ferry everyone to make a fortune. Why did he know about this routine? Because when Wen Xun wrote a novel when he was 12 years old and took it to professionals, in the professional's home, Wen Xun once flipped through a clothing magazine when he was bored. In this clothing magazine, there happens to be an article about the top 10 jeans brands in the world.

In this article, the number one jeans are jeans called Levi's, Levi's. After introducing the brand of jeans, there is a short article about the founder of this brand and the founder of the world's first pair of jeans - Levi Strauss.

This Livy Strauss was originally a German immigrant, he grew up on the streets of the United States, and later discovered the gold mountain in San Francisco, which set off a gold rush in the United States. So the young Levi went to San Francisco, and he went to pan for gold with his companions he met on the road, but he didn't make any money after a long day. Later, Levi, who had a bit of a foundation in handmade fabrics, occasionally found that the canvas used to make tents had other uses, such as for making trousers, because gold diggers were very wasteful pants, and if they were made of canvas, they would be very wearable. So, this Jewish guy who went to the west to pan for gold created the world's first jeans brand and made a fortune with jeans......

When I saw this story back then, Xiao Wenxun was shocked and directly dumbfounded! He never thought that the business could do this! But if you think about it, it's true, that is, because there is gold, there are many people who go. But because there are more people going, the chances of everyone being able to find gold are smaller. So in this way, it is better to do business for the huge flow of people!

Therefore, after seeing this topic, Wen Xun immediately reacted to what he should do - he should drive a boat to ferry back and forth on the big river to collect money! This is a drought and flood to ensure the harvest! At the same time, make jeans and sell them to gold diggers!

Thinking of this, Wen Xun already has a plan for how to write an article after adopting this topic. He thought about it and realized that the topic probably didn't seem to be a test of the student's writing ability. Or at least not primarily about writing ability.

Instead, it focuses on students' ability to look at problems from a different perspective and their ability to think business! In this way, it seems that this exam is not to select the best students in essay, but to choose the best students in business thinking!

After thinking about how to write the second topic, Wen Xun began to think about the third topic. The third topic is "If there is no sun tomorrow......". As soon as he thought of this topic, Wen Xun suddenly felt a smell of egg pain and lactic acid.

What if there is no sun tomorrow? Then humanity will be extinct! So what's there to write about? What can people sigh at? Lamenting that the sun is really too important for the earth? Anyway, after analyzing the third question, Wen Xun only felt that these three questions must not have come up with it alone, because the IQ and 2B index in the three questions are fluctuating.

After a while, Wen Xun and Li Liuyun arrived at the school. After sitting in his place, Wen Xun began to think again. Although he still doesn't know what the term performance art means, he has basically decided to write a second topic.

Wen Xun is very clear about his strengths and weaknesses, he is not a natural literary genius, and he does not have the magical ability to make witty sentences. All he could rely on was the ability to use his dreams to try an infinite number of times. Maybe after a long time, Lan Yang and others in the dream have been educated by Lan Yang and others in the dream to have the ability to write a good article with a pen, but at least not now.

And what are Wen Xun's strengths? His strength is that he is overmature compared to his peers and understands too much more than his peers. Not only that, but because he is much more mature than his peers, he has a more stable mind and a wider mind.

So in some ways, he is also the most suitable to write about this "gold rush" theme. Because this topic focuses on a question of divergent thinking, and what is important is whether a way of thinking is broad enough, and whether it can come to a reverse thinking that is different from the public.

Isn't this exactly in line with Wen Xun's strengths? And this topic doesn't require so much writing skills. This is simply a topic tailored for Wen Xun!

Wen Xun sighed with emotion, and began to think about how he would write an essay on this topic during class. In this composition, the event that Wen Xun chose to express is that people should not blindly follow, should not see what the public is doing, and should do what they do, they should have reverse thinking, and sometimes give up the choice of the largest number of people to live better than the public......

Thinking about it, Wen Xun suddenly seemed to realize something. He realized that when he used to write essays, it seemed that when he encountered this kind of topic, he would directly come up and discuss it, and directly express his views with empty teeth. But after the experience of writing novels in the first round, Wen Xun suddenly got used to another way of writing!

That is, like writing a novel, try not to express the author's own opinions, and let the situation of the characters in the story express everything!

If this feeling is placed on someone else, they may just laugh it off. But Wen Xun gradually dug deeper - if he did this before, would his peers do the same? He is a person who knows how to strengthen his strengths, and he is also a person who knows how to highlight his differences.

If peers will start with a discussion because they don't have enough writing, or simply because they didn't think of this, then why can't Wen Xun start with no discussion at all? Why can't Wen Xun tell a story directly at the beginning?

Why can't he tell a story like a novel? In this way, when he heard the news, he was confident that he would directly attract the attention of the professors at the beginning! Think about it, according to the list published by the "New Youth" magazine, there are almost 100 students participating in the semi-finals nationwide. Moreover, in order to prevent students from other places from waiting for a long time, the professors of ten famous universities had to correct the essay test paper with a score of almost 100 points on the same day.

In this way, after reading too many essays that start with argumentation, Wen Xun comes up with articles that don't discuss at all and tell stories directly, can they not be dazzled? As soon as their eyes lit up, they would subconsciously add psychological points to Wen Xun!

Even, the story of Livy Strauss can be mentioned later in the article to reinforce the fact that the story told by Wen Xun is very feasible. In this way, it will further enhance the brightness of Wen Xun's article, because no matter how gorgeous the words are used by other students, they are still coldly and stupidly publishing the same opinions! Wen Xun is telling a true story!

Wait a minute...... Does such an act of oneself also fit the theme of the "gold rush" story on a certain level? I didn't follow the trend to write argumentative essays, or I didn't go to some argumentative essays, but expressed my opinions through storytelling, and used the situation of the characters in the story to express my opinions. Isn't this also "off the beaten path" to some extent?

Other than that! Why is the current New Language Essay Contest held? Don't you just feel that the previous Chinese composition teaching was too cramming and too test-oriented, so you have to get a "unusual" model? Isn't the core spirit of this new language the same as the choice of the protagonist in the "Gold Rush" story! Isn't Wen Xun's choice the same as the core spirit of Xinyusi!
