This painting competition is jointly organized by the Xia family and the Shen family. The standards are very high, and the money is not bad.
All contestants will be accommodated in five-star hotels.
After getting up, the contestants all went to the cafeteria to eat. They were still discussing along the way: "This is my first time staying in this kind of hotel. The pillows are so comfortable. I have always suffered from insomnia and am prone to stiff neck, but I slept well last night."
Very good.”
"Sure enough, expensive things have no other disadvantages besides being expensive."
When they arrived at the restaurant, everyone gathered together. The tough-looking woman looked around and found someone missing: "Xia Weiyang, Zhao Huainan, and Ronling are all here, why don't you see Lu Xixin?"
"Is that one?" Someone stretched out his hand and pointed at the woman who came in from the door.
The organizer was very wealthy and had already booked this five-star hotel, so when a new face came in, everyone subconsciously thought it was Lu Xixin.
Someone else poked Yun Niannian, who was lowering his head to eat: "Hey, you should know Lu Xixin, right?"
Yun Niannian raised her head, a little surprised to see a familiar face, then raised her hand and waved: "Xiaoxiao, this way."
When they heard the word "laugh", everyone knew it was not the case.
What a disappointment.
"Who is this Xiaoxiao?" someone asked Yun Niannian.
Yun Niannian replied: "She is my senior sister's assistant."
Everyone was stunned at first, and then couldn't help but said bitterly: "It is indeed the life of a rich person, and he even brings an assistant to the competition."
Zhu Xiaoxiao greeted Yun Niannian and sat across from her.
"Where's Senior Sister? Why didn't you come here?" Yun Niannian asked Zhu Xiaoxiao.
Zhu Xiaoxiao pinched the steamed dumplings and said, "She didn't come, so I will draw lots for her today."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Some people couldn't stand it anymore: "No, it's okay if you don't participate in the preliminary round. You even have to find someone to replace you in the semi-final draw. This is too crazy. Even Xia Weiyang and Zhao Huainan came here in person. Where is this Lu Xixin?"
Holy."
Everyone felt a little uncomfortable.
It's not that they have to target Lu Xixin, but the more special Lu Xixin behaves, the more worried they are about the fairness of this competition.
Everyone is participating in the competition on the same line, why are you so special?
Although this painting competition is not a long-established competition that has been held for many times, the standards are also very high. Not only does the president of the painting association serve as a judge, but the prize money is also generous.
I heard that the winner has a bonus of 3 million.
The tough woman had a bad temper and immediately threw the fork on the dining table. Her eyes were full of anger: "What's going on? I'm just participating in a competition. Why do I have to show my privileges everywhere? Being rich is great. Isn't the champion even pre-determined?"
If that’s the case, I won’t participate in this competition!”
"Calm down, calm down." The fat man acted as a peacemaker, pulling the strong woman to prevent her from leaving, and turned to Zhu Xiaoxiao: "Miss Xiaoxiao, we know that Miss Lu is very busy, but for such an important game
, I can’t explain it until I’m on site.
It not only shows no regard for the game, but also disrespects other players."
In just one sentence, Lu Xixin was accused of being disrespectful and questioned about her quality.
"Xiaoxiao, what should I do?" Yun Niannian nervously tugged on Zhu Xiaoxiao's sleeves, her face very pale.
During this period, Yun Niannian was in very bad health. She seemed to have suffered a serious illness. Her face was pale and her body was much thinner. She seemed to fall down when the wind blew. That is, she could be seen during meals or competitions.
, resting in the room at other times and rarely showing up.
"It's okay." Zhu Xiaoxiao glanced at Yun Niannian comfortingly, then turned to everyone with a calm expression: "There are rules in the competition. If the contestants have important matters, they don't need to draw lots in person. Our teacher Lu's behavior is in compliance with the rules.
I don’t know what dissatisfaction you have.”
"It complies with the rules, haha -" the tough woman sneered, "According to what you said, I have important things to do. How about I find someone to draw lots for me?"
Zhu Xiaoxiao raised her eyes, stretched out her right hand, and made a gesture of invitation: "If you really have something to do, you can apply to the organizer."
"Exactly." The tough woman rolled her eyes, "Anything important is just an excuse, just to show privilege. I don't believe there is anything more important than participating in the competition?"
Zhu Xiaoxiao replied calmly: "At the International Biotechnology Conference, Mr. Lu is the representative of Tsinghua University."
The originally noisy restaurant suddenly became quiet.
Everyone was stunned.
The tough-looking woman even stuttered: "...International Biotechnology Conference?"
Everyone recovered from their sluggishness and looked at each other with shock in their eyes. Even though they were laymen who were not in this industry, they also knew what the International Biotechnology Conference represented. This was the highest-level conference in biology.
And their competition is just a domestic competition that gives young painters a chance.
Everyone felt a little dejected, and everyone returned to their seats, lowering their heads to eat, as if what just happened didn't exist.
Lu Xixin arrived on the day of the competition. She had just gotten off the plane and looked a little tired.
Zhu Xiaoxiao came to pick her up and introduced the painting competition: "The competition starts at nine o'clock, you are in the third group, and the test question is spring."
Questions for the semi-finals will be drawn two days in advance to give contestants time to come up with ideas.
The other contestants had been thinking about it for two days, but Lu Xixin just found out that she was still participating in the competition in such an exhausted condition.
Zhu Xiaoxiao was a little worried about her: "Teacher Lu, are you really okay?" His face was so pale.
Lu Xixin leaned on one hand and rubbed her temples with her index finger. Her expression was indifferent, as if she didn't care about the competition.
"Don't worry." Lu Xixin nodded, and then said, "The exam questions in the spring are much easier than the debates at the international biology conference."
She proposed a new idea, which is still in the theoretical stage. Although there are many arguments to support it, it has not been tested, so it means it is unknown.
At the conference, she debated with top biology professors from several countries to explore the possibility of this idea.
When one person confronts several people, or even dozens of people, it is a complete storm like a whirlpool in the brain.
Relatively speaking, the test questions in the painting competition are much easier.
When Lu Xixin mentioned the events at the International Biotechnology Conference, Zhu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be excited, her eyes sparkling.
Although she was unable to go with Teacher Lu this time, she has been following the meeting online.
Even before Lu Xixin returned to China, reports about Lu Xixin were already overwhelming on the Internet.
Nowadays, TV newspapers are full of news about Lu Xixin. Regarding her ideas at the biology conference, authoritative foreign magazines are reporting on and discussing this matter.
Lu Xixin became completely famous, and the entire biological world was stunned by the idea she proposed.
Some media have even asserted that if this idea succeeds, Lu Xixin will be the greatest biologist in the 21st century.
"Teacher Lu, you are really amazing!" Zhu Xiaoxiao was so excited that her eyes filled with tears.
