Chapter 432: 430 contemporary literary event! Couplet

 Chapter 432 430. A grand gathering of contemporary literary circles! Couplets match?

Qin Shangran didn’t expect that this small exhibition he organized would be so popular!

 After the news was announced, it caused quite a stir and concern in the entire Beijing circle and even the entire Chinese literary world.

Almost everyone who can be named in the cultural circles of Beijing called to reserve tickets...

 Many people from other places rushed to the capital overnight to participate in this small exhibition.

Seeing that the number of reservations is increasing!

Qin Shangran had to quickly announce a temporary suspension of registration, which stopped many people's enthusiasm.

but…

Many big-shot figures still called him privately. He couldn't refuse, so he could only give a lot of tickets privately.

 The next morning.

 The largest exhibition hall of CCTV became extremely lively.

Although there are not many things for exhibition in the middle, the number of people on site is like the core area of ​​the National Museum.

 Many people came to the scene with a scrutinizing attitude and purpose.

 Zhang Guobin, Wang Jianbin and other people from Beijing University and Shuimu naturally came to the scene. After all, they are also one of the organizers.

Each exhibit in the middle is protected by bulletproof glass. Everyone can only look at it through the glass, but cannot touch it, let alone take it out to look at.

 In the middle, at the counter where the Xiakexing is located, there is already a long queue.

One of the biggest purposes of everyone who comes here is to see the authentic cursive calligraphy of Xiake Xing, which is called the first authentic cursive calligraphy in recent hundreds of years by many calligraphers in the literary world.

“Kill one person in ten steps and leave no trace in a thousand miles!”

 “Each word reveals murderous intent and decisiveness.”

 “It is indeed the best cursive script!”

“It would be great if I could keep this authentic painting.”

“Don’t think about it, it’s not easy to see it this time.”

“It would be great if Wang Cheng’s running script Xia Ke Xing could also be put together.”

“Wang Cheng cherishes his works very much and it is impossible to take them out.”

“Did you watch yesterday’s program? Ding Feng Bo, Jiang Hong, Qing Yu Case, it was so exciting.”

 “Azolla is over there!”

“I watched River Red, and my blood boiled all over after watching it.”

“The Sapphire Case is my favorite. This poem is not inferior to any classic Song poem that has been passed down through the ages.”

“I really didn’t expect to see such works and authentic calligraphy in our time. My life is worth it.”

 “Can I take a photo?”

 …

There is a long queue in front of each work, and the queue at Xia Ke Xing is the largest.

Wen Yixiao and Han Xiao were both at the scene. They were both worried that their works would be damaged, so they both watched at the scene.

Yu Jinghong stood next to Wen Yixiao and whispered: "Today's exhibition seems to be a grand event in today's literary world."

Wen Yixiao said lightly: "How many years has it been since the domestic literary world produced a good work? Wang Cheng has indeed single-handedly brought a grand event to the contemporary literary world."

Yu Jinghong did not refute this, and a trace of regret flashed in her eyes again. If she could buy Wang Cheng to Penguin Entertainment at any cost, she would replace Shen Shenghui as Wang Cheng's agent.

It must be a blessing to be the agent of such a person, right?

If Shen Shenghui knew what she was thinking, he would definitely have something to say...

After Yu Jinghong was silent for a while, she whispered: "Wang Cheng and Shen Shenghui have returned to the Magic City! I got the news that Dragon TV convened many people for a meeting overnight. This time they will definitely spend a lot of money on Wang Cheng. I want to invite Wang Cheng Cheng joined the show and created a miracle of eight-point ratings."

Wen Yixiao didn't look away from the picture of the knight's journey, and said softly: "Then you can help me keep an eye on it. If you have any news, help me sign up to participate."

Yu Jinghong had no objection to Wen Yixiao's thoughts at this time.

It is a great thing to be on a show with such Wang Cheng...

Yu Jinghong looked at the platform surrounded by people and asked curiously: "What kind of work is there? There are so many people?"

Wen Yixiao took one look and knew what was going on. He explained: "It's the two couplets written by Wang Cheng. Many people want to write neat second couplets."

Yu Jinghong’s eyes flickered: “Has anyone written it down?”

Wen Yixiao shook his head: "Not yet!"

Yu Jinghong smiled: "Billions of netizens on the Internet are thinking about it, but no one has figured it out yet. The difficulty of these two couplets is beyond our imagination. We don't know how Wang Cheng's brain is so long that he can figure it out. Such a difficult couplet! It may really become an absolute."

 Qin Shangran dealt with several big shots in Beijing circles and came to Yu Jinghong. Hearing what Yu Jinghong and Wen Yixiao said, he smiled and said: "It's definitely not the case. There must be someone who can match up. It's just a matter of time."

On this point, Qin Shangran has absolute confidence.

 The absolutes of the ancients were only temporary absolutes.

 Furthermore, the reason why the ancients used the absolute at that time is essentially different from modern times.

 In ancient times, the spread of information was very slow, the scope was very small, and there were not many readers.

Therefore, when a difficult couplet appears, it may be circulated in a small circle of only dozens or hundreds of people in a short period of time, and the probability of matching is naturally much smaller.

but…

 In contemporary society, information is extremely developed.

The couplets written by Wang Cheng on the show yesterday spread throughout the country within a few minutes. There are hundreds of millions of people participating in the couplets, including many literary figures and smart people who understand the couplets.

 So, Qin Shangran believes that it may not take a few days for Wang Cheng's two couplets to be matched.

Perhaps…

 Can someone come up to me today?

 “I thought of it!”

As soon as Qin Shangran finished speaking, someone among the crowd surrounding the couplets shouted excitedly: "I thought of a second couplet!"

 In an instant, the scene was detonated.

 Qin Shangran, Wen Yixiao, Yu Jinghong, Han Xiao, Qin Yuhai, Wang Hongyi, Chen Yuqi, Han Lei, Wang Jianbin, Zhang Guobin, etc. all looked over quickly!

I saw a middle-aged man there saying loudly: "The second couplet of Yansuo Pondliu, I thought of one! Everyone, this first couplet of Wang Cheng is indeed very difficult. The five-character radicals correspond to the five elements. I I suddenly had an inspiration and thought of something."

Wang Hongyi stared at the middle-aged man and asked curiously: "Who is this?"

Luo Xue also replied: "It's an alumnus of our Shuimu Chinese Department, Jiang Lin. He has published a collection of poems and now teaches in the Chinese Department of the National People's University. I heard that he has been doing a lot of research on couplets. Professor Han should be familiar with them."

Han Lei nodded: "Yes, Jiang Lin is very knowledgeable about couplets. We often get together to talk about couplets. I thought about Yansuo Pondliu for half a night last night and still had no idea. I didn't expect him to come up with it now. No. Do you know if he will go to see Wang Cheng!"

 Wang Hongyi, Chen Yuqi, Liang Xiaoliang and others all had a flash of disappointment in their eyes.

They were all eager to confront each other, and then get to see Wang Cheng alone... Unexpectedly, if they were confronted by one now, they would lose another chance.

Wen Honglun said calmly: "Listen to what Jiang Lin's second line is!"

 Someone in the crowd shouted: "Professor Jiang, what is your second line?"

Jiang Lin felt the feeling of being watched by the whole audience, his face flushed with excitement, and he said loudly: "I just had a sudden inspiration, everyone, listen to the second line that I suddenly thought of!"

With that said, Jiang Lin said seriously: "Smoke locks pond willow, each character is one of the five elements, I am talking about one, gun Zhenhaicheng tower, what do you think?"

The whole audience listened quietly to Jiang Lin's second line. After Jiang Lin finished speaking, thoughts flashed in everyone's eyes.

"Pao Zhen Haicheng Tower, the radical of each character is also one of the five elements, and the meaning of the whole day is similar, very neat."

 “Professor Jiang is right!”

“Professor Jiang is indeed a top student who graduated from Shuimu, good!”

“Hundreds of millions of people across the country didn’t think of it overnight. Professor Jiang did. Well, let Wang Cheng not underestimate our Shuimu students.”

 …

Many people at the scene quickly analyzed Jiang Lin’s second couplet and thought it was very neat at first sight. Many Shuimu teachers, students and alumni praised Jiang Lin.

Wang Hongyi, Chen Yuqi, Han Lei and other people who are good at couplets all frowned slightly and thought carefully. Jiang Lin's second couplet seemed neat, but they felt there was still something wrong!

Liang Xiaoliang touched her chin, suddenly raised her hand and said, "Professor Jiang, I think there is something wrong with your second line, it is not very neat."

 The lively scene suddenly became quiet!

Everyone looked at Liang Xiaoliang. Many people were familiar with Liang Xiaoliang. They knew that Liang Xiaoliang was from a famous family. He was already quite talented and good at couplets. He was also a top student at Peking University and had won many awards from Peking University. support from teachers, students and alumni.

Jiang Lin saw Liang Xiaoliang and asked seriously, "Classmate Liang, what do you think?"

Liang Xiaoliang took a step forward, facing everyone's gaze, without any nervousness, and said loudly: "On the surface, Professor Jiang's second couplet does look like a neat second couplet. However, there is a problem with the word "Zhen" in it!"

After hearing what Liang Xiaoliang said, Wang Hongyi, Han Lei and other quick-response people next to them all had their eyes lit up. They understood what Liang Xiaoliang wanted to say, and they all showed a smile.

Jiang Lin also frowned and thought, and asked, "What is the problem that classmate Liang is talking about?"

Liang Xiaoliang didn't sell it, and said directly: "Each character of Wang Cheng's "Smoke Lock Pond Willow" not only has one of the five elements' radicals, but at the same time, each character also represents a concrete object of one of the five elements. Just like smoke, it is Next to the word "fire", smoke is also the embodiment of fire; similarly, "lock" is next to the word "gold", which is also a concrete object of metal. Next to the word "chi", the word "water" is also a concrete object of water; next to the word "pond", the word "tang", is next to the word "tu", which is also the accumulation of soil. It is a concrete object; not to mention willow, next to the word wood, it is also a concrete object of water and wood!"

“Professor Jiang’s second couplet, “Cannon Town, Sea City Tower,” cannon, sea, city, and tower, all make sense, but the town next to the gold characters has nothing to do with the actual metal object, right?"

Liang Xiaoliang’s analysis immediately made everyone present look stunned.

Jiang Lin himself has been studying couplets for many years, and he suddenly understood that his second couplet was indeed flawed in the word "zhen" and was not as exquisite and neat as Wang Cheng's first couplet.

 Hence, his second line does not count against the neat second line.

"I see!"

“I just read Professor Jiang’s second line, and I had an idea, but I couldn’t remember it for a while.”

“Wang Cheng’s first couplet is really full of hidden mysteries. It is very difficult to perfectly match the upper and lower couplets.”

“Professor Jiang’s second couplet is already very good, but it’s a pity that it’s still a little bit worse.”

 “Then can you replace the word Zhen?”

“If we change the word Zhen, we have to change the whole thing. Doesn’t that mean we have to rethink the second line?”

 Everyone was discussing.

Jiang Lin also smiled, and then said to Liang Xiaoliang: "Classmate Liang is right, but I didn't think carefully and wanted to be right too much."

Jiang Lin did not pretend to be pretentious and directly admitted his mistake in public: "Wang Cheng's first couplet is really difficult. To say it is absolutely is not an exaggeration. It seems like another couplet with the same sound as Yansuo Pond Liubi. It’s better, but actually the smoke lock pond willow is more difficult.”

“That seven-character couplet with the same sound may be better. I’ll go back and think about the couplet with the same sound.”

Many people in the industry present nodded in approval!

 Especially the teachers, students and alumni of Beijing University and Shuimu, their faces were full of seriousness and thinking.

After all, it was Peking University and Mizuki that Wang Cheng blatantly defeated on the show yesterday, completely crushing the teams from the two prestigious schools.

This made all the teachers and students of Beijing University and Shuimu University and many graduated alumni who had watched the program hold their breath and wanted to help their alma maters earn back this breath.

so!

I don’t know how many teachers, students, and alumni of Peking University and Mizuki University have been studying these two couplets in private, and they have discovered a lot of mysteries, which is more detailed than the analysis of many netizens on the Internet.

Many alumni from the other two schools even contacted Qin Shangran and CCTV privately, expressing their desire to cooperate with the program that Wang Chenggang had appeared on, and at the same time hoping that CCTV would invite Wang Cheng here again. They all confidently wanted to He once again faced off with Wang Cheng on the show to defend his alma mater.

For the time being, Qin Shangran and CCTV are still suppressing many cooperation intentions and have not responded. The first thing they need to deal with is Wang Cheng!

 Qin Shangran was an audience in the crowd. He saw that many teachers and students from Beijing University and Shuimu, as well as big bosses in Beijing circles, were very disappointed. He whispered: "Wang Cheng has really stirred up a hornet's nest."

Yu Jinghong and Wen Yixiao both nodded in approval.

Wang Cheng crushed and defeated the teachers and students of Beijing University and Mizuki University on the show yesterday. He really stirred up a hornet's nest. The teachers, students and alumni of the two prestigious schools, as well as their relatives and friends, have various connections that can almost bring together the entire Beijing circle. All motivated.

 At this time, it is reasonable to say that the entire Beijing circle is targeting Wang Cheng!

Next time, if Wang Cheng comes to CCTV again to appear on a program, he may not face current students such as Wang Hongyi and Chen Yuqi, but the big bosses in the industry who have graduated and become famous.

 “Wang Cheng has returned to the Magic City, isn’t Director Qin anxious?”

Yu Jinghong asked Qin Shangran curiously.

Qin Shangran nodded: "I know, I'm anxious too. So, after today's exhibition is over, I will personally take Wang Cheng's works to the Magic City tomorrow and return them to Wang Cheng!"

 Coming to the door in person, Qin Shangran obviously wanted to talk to Wang Cheng and Rubik's Cube Entertainment about the next cooperation in person.

Yu Jinghong smiled faintly: "Then I'll wait for the good news from Director Qin."

Qin Shangran nodded, a trace of pressure flashed in his eyes, and he was not so confident.

 At this time, he already knew that many TV stations in the country had gone crazy and were chasing Wang Cheng irrationally.

 The name CCTV has no effect at all.

 If he wants to bring Wang Cheng back again, he must really come up with better conditions.

but…

He knew the news that many TV stations were planning to make a crazy and desperate effort to attack Rubik's Cube Entertainment to steal Wang Cheng.

Facing these colleagues who have lost their minds, Qin Shangran is really under great pressure.

 …

 And Wang Cheng returned to the Magic City.

 Although the news has not spread, there are still people who know about it.

 For example, Li Guang, Zhang Huizhong and others!

So, when Wang Cheng, Shen Shenghui and others walked low-key through the many fans wandering aimlessly at the airport and arrived at the parking lot, several motorcades had already gathered here.

Li Guang, Zhang Huizhong, Wu Tong, Liu Jiahui, etc. each brought a convoy here, and they all wanted to borrow Wang Cheng.

 Shen Shenghui looked at this scene and was a little dumbfounded.

 He doesn’t know who to choose!

 Because no matter who you choose, you will offend the other three parties.
