Chapter 317 Is Bai Di’s calligraphy bad?

Lin Zhibai has written three poems, each of which is exquisite and can be said to be a success.

Ji Quantai, however, had just written a poem at this time. Although he also received a lot of applause, his popularity was obviously not as good as that of Bai Di.

 This is unacceptable to Ji Quantai!

Seeing many literati discussing Bai Di's poems, Ji Quantai took a deep breath and winked at a middle-aged man next to him.

 The middle-aged man understood and immediately said:

"Today, there are snow and plum blossoms in the Plum Garden, so there are many excellent works of praising snow and praising plum blossoms. The four gentlemen will not talk about it. In my opinion, the best work today is undoubtedly the poem praising snow by Teacher Xiao Ji. Everyone What do you think?"

 “That’s right!”

 “Teacher Gewu is right!”

 “This poem is the best today!”

 “It’s really well written!”

 “Teacher Xiaoji is a great talent!”

 “He is worthy of being the first person of the young generation!”

 “The east wind follows the west wind, and the leaves of the trees are empty. The plum blossoms cannot be blown away, but they still embrace the new red. This poem by Teacher Xiaoji is really wonderful.”

 “Brother Zhou will memorize it.”

“A good poem will never be forgotten after you listen to it once.”

 Everyone spoke one after another, and their recognition of Ji Quantai's poem was very high.

But Lin Zhibai glanced at the person who made the suggestion. It turned out that this guy was Ge Wu. It seemed that the group of people who had fought with him in the online couplet battle had basically gathered together today.

 At this time.

Huang Yulou, the president of the Writers Association, suddenly said: "I agree with what Teacher Ge Wu said. Teacher Xiao Ji's works are indeed elegant. Brother Jiang He has taught a good apprentice!"

Ji Quantai was a disciple of Jiang He.

Hearing what Huang Yulou said, Jiang He smiled, but said modestly: "Xiao Ji is usually hardworking, but he is still somewhat talented. Thank you for everyone's support."

 “In my opinion…”

Mrs. Zhao suddenly said: "As for the best poem about snow today, Teacher Xiao Ji's work is certainly excellent, but Teacher Bai Di's line about flying into the plum blossoms and not being able to see them is more to my liking."

 “This is wrong.”

Huang Yulou said: "Teacher Bai Di's poem is good, but it is obviously too pursuit of the twists and turns at the end, so that the first three sentences really have no artistic beauty. This type of writing technique is not the path of poetry that we pursue. .”

Jiang He nodded lightly.

 Old Mrs. Zhao curled her lips.

 In a sense, Jiang He, Huang Yulou, Yun Lan and Mrs. Zhao are the judges of today's poetry competition.

 And now.

Jiang He and Huang Yulou obviously stood for Ji Quantai, while Mrs. Zhao stood for Bai Di.

The current situation is two to one, so Huang Yulou looked at Yun Lan, who did not express his position, and wanted to form a three to one situation:

 “What does President Yun think?”

Yun Lan frowned slightly. She knew that today Jiang He planned to promote his disciple Ji Quantai to the top. The level of Ji Quantai's poem was indeed commendable, but the best overall performance was definitely Bai Di...

Just.

 Kick the ball out.

　　I won’t get involved in this matter.

Mainly, Yun Lan didn't want to say Ji Quantai was better against his will, nor did he want to offend Jiang He and Huang Yulou, so he said calmly: "Since there are different voices among us, why not let Ji Quantai and Bai Di use snow or plum as the theme again, Let’s compare the previous round individually and let everyone vote together.”

 “I think it will work.”

After hesitating for a moment, Huang Yulou glanced at Ji Quantai, and then expressed his agreement. Jiang He next to him also nodded slightly, and even Mrs. Zhao didn't say much.

 “This is indeed a good idea.”

Ge Wu looked at Lin Zhibaipi and said with a smile: "Let these two young talents compete one-on-one again, and we will also be blessed to enjoy two more masterpieces."

 “No need to compare, right?”

Zhou Tai made it clear today that he was siding with Lin Zhibai, and immediately said: "Even if Teacher Bai Di and Teacher Xiao Ji's poems about snow are evenly divided, Teacher Bai Di has written three poems in a row so far, and each of them is It’s wonderful, but Teacher Xiaoji only has one song, is there any need to differentiate between the two?”

 “That’s different.”

Ge Wu retorted: "Baidi's previous poems all came out at the right moment. Teacher Xiao Ji's talent has not been fully demonstrated yet. Today's poetry meeting will definitely give Teacher Xiao Ji a chance to formally prove himself."

"that is!"

Na An An gritted his teeth and said: "If Bai Di is really talented, why should he be afraid of competing again?"

Lin Zhibai said nothing.

Ji Quantai suddenly stood up and said, "I have no problem with it. I wonder if Teacher Baidi can give it a try?"

As he spoke, Ji Quantai cupped his hands towards Lin Zhibai, his eyes clearly showing provocation.

Lin Zhibai thought about how this guy had just helped An An, and wanted to do something against him. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

 “Then please.”

Ji Quantai has already issued a challenge. It would be inappropriate if he didn't accept it. Why not just compete with him in a round? Today we have to defeat these people.

 “Writing and ink are waiting for you!”

Ji Quantai rolled up his sleeves and looked heroic. This situation was arranged in advance. Ge Wu was a fan, so he was well prepared for this show!

 “We want it too.”

Zhou Tai’s voice was somewhat emotional.

Soon someone brought in pens and ink and placed them in front of Ji Quantai and Lin Zhibai.

Zhou Tai studied ink himself.

 Then Lin Zhibai began to write.

Ji Quantai on the other side moved faster, completing a poem almost in a matter of seconds.

Ge Wu came over to take a look and said excitedly:

“Okay, okay, you are indeed Teacher Xiao Ji! The poems with good calligraphy are even better! I can’t help but want to treasure this calligraphy treasure!”

 “What did you write?”

 “Ge Laonian, come and listen!”

"that is!"

 “Don’t show off!”

Everyone spoke to urge him.

Ge Wu smiled and picked up the calligraphy treasure, and recited loudly: "Thousands of mountains and mountains carry a white head, God-given rouge gently wipes the cheeks. Asking from afar where the orchids and bamboos are in spring, the fragrance of jade bones, ice and muscles will come!"

As soon as this poem comes out!

 The whole house cheered!

This is a poem describing a landscape. It writes about both snow and plum blossoms. It can be said to be a praising of plum blossoms in the snow. However, snow and plum blossoms are not mentioned throughout the poem. It is all metaphorical. Although it is a bit of a pile of rhetoric, it is also a very high level of poetry. The scenery is majestic and majestic from far to near, and the picture is very strong. The literati present will know the secret at a glance!

 …

 In the live broadcast room, there was also a chorus of admiration!

 “Well written!”

 “This poem is grand!”

 “Not mentioning snow and plum blossoms, but describing the beauty of snow plum blossoms to the extreme!”

 “This scenery poem is really amazing!”

 “The poetry festival is really wonderful!”

 “Can this Bai Di write anything better?”

 “He will definitely lose!”

 “Ji Quantai is the number one person of the young generation!”

 “Come on Ji Quantai!”

 Bai Di’s fans were a little nervous, but their support did not stop and their voices were even louder. Mainly because Lin Zhibai’s previous three poems gave everyone confidence!

 “Are you too confident?”

“Which of the first three songs of Bai Di is missing?”

“Ji Quantai’s song is obviously a little less interesting than Bai Di’s song just now!”

 “The words are too fancy.”

"Don't think that not mentioning snow and plum means you are advanced. It's not difficult to do this."

“I think the number one person in this young generation should be Bai Di!”

“I didn’t dare to say this before, but Bai Di’s first three poems are enough to prove it!”

"agree!"

 “I don’t know how Bai Di’s poem is going to be this time.”

 They were not convinced, but Bai Di's fans still recognized Ji Quantai's poem, which was indeed written at a certain level.

 …

on site. Everyone’s eyes moved to Lin Zhibai.

 My work has been recognized by everyone!

Ji Quantai’s eyes are burning. How do you, Bai Di, respond to this poem?

Even if Bai Di’s previous three poems are well written, the content of the poems is indeed somewhat witty and has a strong sense of response. However, he has done everything he can in this poem. Ji Quantai does not think he will lose!

 “It’s our turn.”

Zhou Tai also sweated a lot, but after seeing the poem written by Lin Zhibai, he felt slightly relieved and whispered:

"I come?"

Lin Zhibai has no objection.

Zhou Tai took a deep breath, picked up the poem Lin Zhibai had just written, stood up and recited: "There are several plum blossoms in the corner, Ling Han is blooming alone, I know it is not snow from a distance, because there is a faint fragrance..."

 Everyone was slightly stunned.

 The first two lines of this poem are ordinary.

 There is nothing clever about it.

However, when Zhou Tai read the third sentence, everyone's faces showed thinking.

Until the fourth sentence, everyone gradually understood the deeper meaning, and everyone's expressions changed slightly. This is a poem that may sound ordinary at first, but if you taste it carefully, you can feel the emotions brewing in it.

Ji Quantai’s song is gorgeous and flamboyant!

　　This piece by Bai Di is simple and restrained!

Ji Quantai did not mention snow and plum blossoms, but he wrote the image of praising plum blossoms in the snow from far to near!

Lin Zhibai actually only mentioned plum blossoms, but he used the sentence "I know it is not snow from a distance" in the middle to use plum blossoms to describe snow from near to far. As a result, plum blossoms are like snow and snow is like plum blossoms, so there is snow in the plums and there are plums in the snow!

coincidentally:

 Both of them ended with the fragrance of plum blossoms. This coincidence is very interesting, but it also makes the two poems a point of comparison.

 There are many artistic approaches to poetry.

Regular imagery, rhetorical techniques, level of metaphor, order of far and near, even color matching, and even emotional expression, etc., are all within the scope of consideration in the art of poetry. After taking these things into consideration, everyone gradually has the answer in their minds.

 “Obvious!”

 Na Gewu announced loudly: "Ji Quantai wins!"

Zhou Tai stared at the other person in disbelief and said, "Are you sure you're not saying something sarcastic?"

Ge Wu sneered and said, "Teacher Zhou Tai shouldn't defend Bai Di like this. His poem is too plain and the content is monotonous and simple. There are a few plum blossoms in the corner and Linghan is blooming alone. There is no rhetoric at all. It's just ugly. Speaking in the vernacular, on the other hand, Teacher Xiao Ji’s poems are gorgeous, elegant and elegant, and can be said to have a clear view of superiority and inferiority!”

 “Why didn’t you mention the last two sentences?”

Zhou Tai sneered and said: "To evaluate a poem, you should look at the whole poem, not analyze it individually. For example, the poem Bai Di wrote before has one piece, two pieces, three pieces and four pieces. Of course, it is meaningless to only look at the previous content. You can add The pattern changes instantly after the fourth sentence, and the same goes for Bai Di's work this time. You can only feel the artistic expression in it by carefully reading the third and fourth sentences!"

 “Why does Teacher Zhou Tai have to be so tough?”

Ge Wu hummed and said: "Even if we compare the whole song, Teacher Xiao Ji won this one. However, our argument will be fruitless. How about asking four teachers to comment on it?"

 Said.

 Gewu looked towards Huang Yulou.

Huang Yulou's eyes flashed, and he stood up with a solemn expression and walked over. First he picked up Ji Quantai's poem and looked at it. He nodded repeatedly. Then he picked up Lin Zhibai's poem and looked at it. He nodded again and again, and seemed very satisfied. It was not until he pondered for a while that he said with some embarrassment: "They are all rare masterpieces, but Bai Di's poem is too simple, and it seems a bit petty."

Lin Zhibai: “…”

This is "Plum Blossom" by Wang Anshi. It was included in the textbooks of the previous life and could be recited by primary school students in China. As a result, today he was criticized for being "small-minded". Just by hearing this, he already knew which way Huang Yulou's **** was tilted.

"Of course."

Huang Yulou also seemed to know that his **** should not be too crooked, and he quickly said: "After all, this work of Teacher Baidi still has a lot of merits. It has a slightly meaningful feeling, which is different from Teacher Xiaoji's work." In comparison, it’s almost evenly matched.”

 “You mean a draw?”

Zhou Tai sighed in his heart, but felt that this result was not bad. Huang Yulou and Jiang He were close friends, and Ji Quantai was Jiang He's proud disciple. Huang Yulou was willing to give a draw, which seemed acceptable. I didn’t say shamelessly that Ji Quantai won.

“It’s a bit outrageous to say it’s a draw, and I’m not a conciliatory person.”

Huang Yulou placed the two poems on the same table for comparison again, looking very cautious. After another full two minutes, he said with a serious face: "If you are nitpicking, in the end it is Teacher Xiao Ji. It’s slightly better than half the battle.”

Zhou Tai was anxious, "Didn't you just say it was evenly divided?"

Huang Yulou sighed: "The content is indeed almost even, but if you look closely, Teacher Bai Di's calligraphy still needs practice. It's not even the slightest bit different from Teacher Xiao Ji's calligraphy."

 Zhou Tai was stunned.

Lin Zhibai was dumbfounded.

 You have been talking about it for a long time, and finally you came to the conclusion that Ji Quantai's handwriting is more beautiful, so he scored higher?

 What do you think about writing an essay?

 Handwriting well will get extra points! ?

 Fortunately, apart from Zhou Tai, there was no one who could help Lin Zhibai speak for him.

Old Mrs. Zhao spoke, "I don't understand what Teacher Huang said, why Teacher Xiao Ji's calligraphy is better? What they are comparing is poetry, not calligraphy!"

“Teacher Zhao, there is nothing I can do.”

Huang Yulou smiled bitterly and said: "In my opinion, these two poems are indeed between the two, but the calligraphy is indeed more than a little bit worse. We people in the poetry circle also attach great importance to calligraphy!"

 “As the ancients said, articles are used to convey the truth, and poems are used to express aspirations!”

Mrs. Zhao's voice was sonorous, "Poems can distinguish between superior and inferior, so why use calligraphy to argue. Teacher Xiao Ji's poems are excellent, but they are only written to suit the occasion. In terms of artistic conception, Teacher Bai Di's works The plum blossoms are used to represent people, Ling Han blooms alone, and the dark fragrance is used to praise his noble character. He is plain and restrained yet profound and intriguing, so he is clearly superior!"

　　“Is expressing one’s ambition a good poem?”

As soon as Mrs. Zhao finished speaking, Jiang He, who had always been silent, suddenly said: "It's a good idea to use flowers to personify people. Bai Di seemed to use plum blossoms to describe himself, but it doesn't change the fact that the content of his poem is too simple. On the contrary, I am pleased. Teacher Yu Xiaoji’s poems do not express aspirations for the sake of expressing aspirations.”

alright.

 It’s another two-to-one situation.

Then Huang Yulou looked at Yun Lan again, "What does President Yun think?"

Yun Lan wanted to curse in her heart. She finally kicked the ball out. Why did it come back to her place again?

 Of course Baidi’s is better, return to nature!

　　Just like songs, some songs are amazing when you first listen to them, but they become boring after you listen to them too much.

 And Bai Di's poems, like classic old songs, are worthy of being savored over and over again. This is called advanced.

But Yun Lan didn't say these words. She chose to avoid Mrs. Zhao's eyes and said softly: "I think the game is even."

 Jiang He.

 Huang Yulou.

 They are all big names in the industry.

Yunlan didn't want to offend someone who was bigger than herself, so it was her limit not to say Ji Quantai was better without conscience.

 Equivalent to Yunlan abandoning the vote.

 The result is still two to one.

When Ge Wu saw this posture, he shouted while the iron was hot: "What do you think?"

 “Of course it’s Teacher Xiaoji’s fault!”

 “That’s right!”

 “Teacher Xiaoji’s is better!”

 “Mainly calligraphy!”

“Teacher Bai Di’s calligraphy is far inferior to his literary talent.”

“Teacher Bai Di, go back and practice calligraphy more.”

“Because I’m not good at calligraphy, it’s a shame that I lost the competition.”

Countless literati present catered to him and talked about things with calligraphy, while a small number of literati were silent.

Looking at this scene, Lin Zhibai suddenly understood why Zhao Gao could treat a deer as a horse in the court.

Mrs. Zhao's breathing became a little rapid due to anger. Lin Zhibai was afraid that she would be angry, so he quickly stepped forward to help her and said:

 "You will sit down first..."

Helping Mrs. Zhao to sit down, Lin Zhibai's eyes changed. He tilted his head and looked at everyone with a slightly sarcastic expression.

 My calligraphy is not good?

Can't you find any other thorns in your side?

It doesn't matter if you target me. After all, I have no intention of getting along with these people. I only wanted to participate in the poetry meeting because I didn't want to damage my image. But Wang Anshi's poems are so criticized by you, and Mrs. Zhao is so angry with you. Zhou Tai spoke up for me, and even Encountered so many looks...

Lin Zhibai was angry.

I have also seen Ji Quantai's Shilin Zhibai. There is nothing to say about the level of poetry, but the calligraphy is indeed excellent, close to the level of a calligrapher. According to the system score, it can be given about fifty points.

 My own calligraphy is only 32.

 But if you really want to use calligraphy to make a fuss, I will use calligraphy to shut you all up!

"system!"

Lin Zhibai gritted his teeth, summoned the system in his heart, and made a decision without hesitation: "Give me more points!"

　　than calligraphy, right?

  So what if my calligraphy only has 32 points?

Lin Zhibai has made huge gains this year because he took over the music department of Shinhwa Group and invested in Tianguang TV Station. In addition to the previous accumulation, he has now gained a total of forty-eight skill points!

this moment.

Lin Zhibai directly devoted everything to calligraphy!

　　唰!

On Lin Zhibai's personal data panel, the calligraphy score began to soar, reaching eighty points in just a few seconds!

  What is the level of eighty points?

 In the music world, eighty is the level of the king of singers and the queen of singers!

 In the calligraphy circle, eighty points is the level of a "calligraphy master"!

Those who can participate in the poetry meeting are no longer begging the publishing house, so the deterrent effect of the protagonist's publishing house is not that strong, and the previous article also implies that there are people behind these people, and the losses here will be compensated elsewhere. , but just say it when you see someone mention it. If you still think it’s unreasonable, there’s nothing I can do about it. After all, this is just a pretentious and slap-in-the-face story. If you want to pursue reasonableness, many plots will be really boring.
