71 Inquire of a man
Will there be a miracle?
The queen who was surprised in Jiangnan looked nervous.
Ye Wudao, who had been weathered, also lost his demeanor as a big guy at this time, and his eyes were full of energy.
"Red fish, grandpa just said that this kid has something, right? Let's look back, take a thirty points in this situation, and still be saved! Ye Wudao said expectantly.
After Li Beidou finished reporting the score of this painting, he discussed it for a short time, and soon the whole square was quiet, waiting carefully for his explanation.
Lin Chen was dissatisfied with his fact that he was only thirty points sure, but he was not in a hurry to jump out.
After the judges have finished explaining the ins and outs of the painting, the contestants have a chance to question the score, and the final ranking will be readjusted after deliberation by the jury.
Li Beidou, a master of Chinese studies, slowly raised his hand, pointed at this "Pious Cultivator" with a laser pointer, and said in a very awe-inspiring tone: "Next, let me tell you about the history of this painting." First of all, I would like to state that the author of this painting, Mr. Jabbar, is not a Chinese national, he is an Eastern European who is prejudiced against Oriental culture, arrogant and arrogant, and has a strange temperament, so there is a little bit of anti-Chinese sentiment in the content of this painting. This only represents Mr. Abdul-Jabbar himself, not the judges, and has nothing to do with the position of the Ye family's recruitment meeting. β
Hearing this, Lin Chen laughed dumbly in his heart, completely reversed.
No wonder I only got 30 points, and it is estimated that there is still water in this tied 30 points.
After a pause, Li Beidou continued: "Let's take a look at a few important elements in this painting, the tall giant has an oriental face, and he looks at the eagle bird and laurel flower in the distance, representing the blind arrogance and extreme ego of the Oriental people. And the old man with his back to the void, it represents Western culture. He walks forward on crutches, ignoring fame and fortune in the distance, and fearless of the giants in front of him, which is an artistic pursuit that dares to explore and move forward alone. β
Seeing that everyone listened carefully, Li Beidou concluded: "Therefore, after this painting passed through our country, it was named "Vanity Fair of Cultural Inheritors" after in-depth research and appreciation by our National Society. The main theme is the cultural difference between the East and the West, and Westerners think that we Easterners are arrogant and ignorant, only know how to pursue fame and fortune, but do not know how to let go of vanity and cultivate the Tao devoutly. β
After listening to Li Beidou's in-depth explanation, everyone present, including a big man like Ye Wudao, couldn't help but nod their heads.
They feel that this painting is very allegorical and very well spoken, and they really pursue fame and fortune all day long, and lose the spirit of self-pursuit.
Only Lin Chen shook his head helplessly.
Lin Chen's shaking was naturally captured by Li Beidou, and he asked with a gentle smile, "Why is this young friend shaking his head?" Do you think there's something wrong with what I'm saying? Got a low score for you? β
Lin Chen got up slowly and said, "I heard some comments about me just now, in order to prove that Old Man Ye didn't take special care of me, please show the judges our answers first." β
So the three judges came to the appreciation table and presented the answers of the six contestants.
Sun Zhongkang and Chu Tiange's answers are similar, probably talking about the cultural differences between the East and the West, and it can only be said that they can see the surface of this painting.
Ye Yitian's answer is much more interesting, his answer is: The old man of the West and the giant of the East are ready to fight in order to compete for assets.
Straightforward enough! But at least the Easterners and Easterners are mentioned.
And when Lin Chen's answer was displayed, everyone couldn't help but exclaim.
If you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing goods. Lin Chen's majestic wild grass font alone opened everyone's eyes.
And the reason why the judges were eye-catching before was also because of Lin Chen's good hand.
Li Beidou read Lin Chen's answer: "Arrogance and ignorance, piety and awe, let go of everything, only tolerance." I don't know Lin Qing Xiaoyou, does this answer still have a deep meaning? Do you think it's unfair that we've given you 30 points? Taken literally, your answer is a bit of a clichΓ©, and it doesn't point out the cultural differences between the East and the West. β
Li Beidou's voice fell, and there were some boos from the audience.
These spectators, who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, read Lin Chen's words, read Lin Chen's answer, and for a while they felt that it was very meaningful, and it was quite suitable for this painting, so they couldn't help but feel empty.
Lin Chen smiled very peacefully, walked up to the appreciation platform, picked up the microphone, and said, "First of all, showing my answer, it can at least show that I am worth thirty points, not sympathy points." Okay, then I'm going to formally question it now, and I'm not convinced by this result! β
Lin Chen's tone was neither humble nor arrogant, but it was very infectious.
"Lin Qing Xiaoyou, why are you not convinced, how many points do you think you deserve?" Li Beidou asked.
Lin Chen said very calmly: "First of all, what I am not convinced is that you don't understand this painting at all, you don't understand it at all!" β
Brush!
These people, who were ready to support Lin Chen's courage to question it just now, were instantly stunned.
This kid is too crazy, isn't he?
In fact, his answer seems to be wonderful, but it really doesn't fit the painting.
"Lin Qing, I advise you not to be open-mouthed, hurry down, don't affect our game!" Chu Tiange got up directly and drank coldly.
Sun Zhongkang also echoed: "It's really crazy, you completely deny the results of the painstaking research of the entire Huaguo Sinology Champion?" How old are you? β
But Li Beidou was not angry, and asked Lin Chen directly: "Oh? Then tell me what you think of the painting. β
Lin Chen glanced at everyone, and said in frustration: "The judges' explanation just now was completely wrong, and it was completely reversed. The meaning of the painting is not to discriminate against our culture, but to be in awe. Therefore, we should not blindly admit our mistakes, we must have our own cultural self-confidence, our ancient oriental culture is very mysterious, very profound, and it is definitely not something that Western civilization can denigrate! β
Be culturally confident!
Everyone was dumbfounded, this kid was crazy enough, but he was really confident enough to make everyone's blood boil.
Waving his hand slightly, signaling everyone to calm down, Lin Chen continued: "As for this painting, it has its own name, it is called "The Devout Cultivator", the author is Jabbar of Eastern Europe, Jabbar is indeed a person of arrogance and despisy for Eastern culture. But by chance, he met a Chinese man, through whom Jabbar learned about the breadth and profundity of our culture, and he was deeply fascinated and wanted to apprentice, but was rejected. β
Therefore, he created this painting and dedicated it to the Chinese man, indicating that he had let go of his arrogance and ignorance and was willing to be a devout monk. And my answer is slightly sublimated, only by letting go of everything and having a heart that is inclusive enough can we create real works. β
Lin Chen spoke eloquently, and everyone was also immersed in his extremely infectious magnetic voice.
"Fart! Nonsense! Dudley, who was one of the three judges, suddenly spoke stiff Chinese and scolded.
Dudley is a Westerner, has also studied Abdul-Jabbar, knows Abdul-Jabbar's character, and it is impossible for him to worship a Chinese.
Lin Chen chuckled lightly and said, "That's the case, if you don't believe it, you can go to verify it, instead of scolding people here." β
Dudley was so angry that he frowned and glared, and said, "Mr. Abdul-Jabbar has already retired, how can you verify it?" I think you're just making up stories and trying to distort the facts, which is really ingenious, but in fact there is no ink in your stomach! β
The scene was once embarrassing, and it was rare for a contestant to make the judges angry like this.
Ye Wudao hurriedly walked over, played a round and said, "Okay, since there is nothing to verify, let's stop here, let's play the score like this, I think it's good." β
After speaking, Ye Wudao squeezed his eyes at Lin Chen, signaling him to accept it when he saw it, and it was already good to write an answer casually and get thirty points.
If you really find Mr. Abdul-Jabbar and finally prove that Lin Chen's answer is nonsense, it will be embarrassing, and he will fall out of the top three directly, without a single point.
"Coincidentally, the old man has a friend who happens to know Mr. Jabbar, so I'll try to contact him."
At this time, Huang Changjiang, a teacher known as the 'Walking Chinese Studies Library', suddenly spoke.
After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and went to the side to contact him.
There was immediately a lot of discussion in the audience.
"This young man is a little carried away, why don't you take it if you don't see it?"
"Where did he expect to be able to contact Abdul-Jabbar? He underestimated the strength of our Ye Zhuang! β
"Yes, not only is it ugly now, but the thirty points are gone, stupid enough!"
Most people looked at Lin Chen gloatingly, but there were also many literate people who were thinking deeply, moved by Lin Chen's words just now, and thought it was very reasonable.
Soon, Judge Huang Changjiang rushed over at a trot.
"Connected, connected!" The highly respected Huang Changjiang was also excited and in awe.
Ye Wudao's face sank, and he glared at Lin Chen, as if to say: You kid, it's cool now.
Facing Abdul-Jabbar on the mobile phone screen, Huang Changjiang said in non-standard English: "Mr. Jabbar, hello, I contacted you through a friend, I was very presumptuous and didn't disturb you, right?" β
Suddenly, Jabbar's easy-going voice came from the phone, and it was even very standard Chinese.
Abdul-Jabbar smiled and said: "Haha, no bother, no bother, let's just communicate in Chinese, I have been learning Chinese for several years, I heard that you are a master of Chinese literature, I am also very excited to communicate with you, I want to ask you about someone." β
Everyone was dumbfounded.
This is the Jabbar who looks down on oriental culture and is arrogant in the mouth of the judges?
How does it sound that this character's personality is closer to Lin Chen's analysis?
