"...Zheng Qing achieved excellent results in the two Campus Cup Hunting Competitions in 2008 and 2009. He also performed well in the spring hunting and winter hunting organized by the school. He also participated in competitions between the school and the alliance.
Many secret operations... What is particularly noteworthy is that the Exoneration Hunting Team he formed was successfully promoted and upgraded to an officially registered hunting team in just eighteen months... These achievements may be what he can
One of the reasons why I got the invitation from Shanglin Garden Spring Hunting..."
Zheng Qing read word by word the school newspaper's summary report of Shanglinyuan Spring Hunting, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Generally speaking, the content of the report is quite objective, listing the various hunting competitions that I participated in after entering First University, from the campus cup to the school's winter hunting, spring hunting, and the implicitly mentioned Black Prison War.
and Three-pronged Sword Secret Operation.
Although his contribution in many missions has been greatly underestimated due to confidentiality reasons, because of the relatively comprehensive review - for example, this report even clearly described the Kuroshio counterattack that the Sin Hunting Team temporarily participated in in Beta Town last spring -
—Furthermore, there is a small list of these actions at the end of the report, so when interpreted as a whole, it still gives readers the feeling that they are worthy of their name and are out of the crowd.
There are many similar articles.
For example, one analyzes the identities of the attendees of this year's Shanglin Garden Spring Hunt, one lists the highlights of this year's Shanglin Garden Spring Hunt, another one touts the charity dinner after the hunting painting exhibition, etc.
Zheng Qing did not miss a single chapter and read every page carefully.
And in addition to school newspapers, such as Beta Town Post, Daily Bugle, Ganges Daily, Ms. Dodo, etc., he didn't miss any of the latest newspapers and magazines he could collect.
The reason for this is, on the one hand, because his identity in going to Shanglinyuan this time is a bit subtle - he is participating in the Spring Hunting as Jiang Yu's male companion. If this is noticed by public opinion, he will be somewhat worried about his personal safety;
On the other hand, it was because of the things he encountered in Shanglinyuan this time.
Including pulling Tushan Chujiu's tail on the performance stage and throwing her into disgrace; dancing with a dozen witches at the Spring Hunting Dance; and the little horse girl from the Houyhnhnms tribe, etc.
Zheng Qing had been interviewed by Ms. Pulitzer and Ms. Barnes before, and he knew how powerful those reporters were. Therefore, it was not difficult for him to imagine that if the Post reporter (he saw several familiar figures in Shanglinyuan) wanted to
How easy it is to use the topic to make some big news.
Just like the challenge match between him and Tu Shan Chujiu, there are several entry points - Tu Shan Chujiu was born in Alpha, and Zheng Qing was born in Jiuyou Academy. The topic of the battle between Alpha and Jiuyou can be brought up immediately.
Most of the students in the two colleges are angry; Tushan Chujiu was born in the Tushan clan of the Yuexiahu clan, and has always been at odds with the Qingqiu clan of the Yuexiahu clan, and Zheng Qing happens to have a special relationship with the leaders of the younger generation in Qingqiu, so he is in
The actions on the magic stage can be interpreted by the outside world as a power struggle within the Yuexia Fox clan; in addition, Zheng Qing, as a wizard, dealt with a witch without grace on the magic stage. If it was targeted and reported,
It will also cause dissatisfaction among the witch community, and he may even be accused of sexual harassment because he pulled Tushan Chujiu's tail; etc.
But after reading most of the latest newspapers, I wonder if it was an illusion. Zheng Qing's biggest feeling after reading it was that all the reports related to him had become very "conservative and cautious" and could no longer be considered "objective". They could not be considered "objective" at all.
It's quite polite.
This made him quite flattered.
More are still puzzled.
"...the most important feature of talismans is 'distortion'. This feature can be very intuitively reflected in the composition and pattern of talismans. We can see that the strokes of every standard talisman are very distorted...in the birth of witchcraft
In the primitive era, wizards believed that these distortions were the most realistic description of heaven and earth. According to Levi Strauss's theory, one of the most important features of primitive thinking is simulated thinking, so the talisman initially embodied the typical
The embodiment of simulation thinking..."
On the podium, lecturer Zhang of the Talisman class was reading the contents of "Basic Talisman·Second Year College" according to the script. He seemed not to notice Zheng who was almost stuffing his head into a drawer under the podium.
Even so, when Zheng Qing was flipping through the newspaper, he still raised his eyelids and carefully paid attention to the movements on the podium. This was a stupid habit he developed after battling wits and courage with the podium during his long study career.
Of course, "conservative and polite" reporting standards do not mean "correct".
Most of the content related to him is almost impeccable in terms of hunting and personal history, but there are many errors in the description of interpersonal relationships, and the content is somewhat subtle.
For example, at the end of a report about Zheng Qing in the Daily Bugle, it was written -
"...Zheng Qing, who received the Merlin Gold Medal, changed his usual low-key and cautious style at the beginning of this semester. He made a high-profile appearance at an occasion like Shanglin Garden Spring Hunting, and shocked the entire upper-class wizarding world by using thousands of talismans in a challenge.
, and maintains close relationships with many witches at the same time. It is reported that Miss Bettasie Black of the Black family, Miss Vivian O'Brien of the O'Brien family, and Miss Jiang Yu of the Zhongshan Jiang family and many other aristocratic ladies
They all had close interactions with him at the Shanglinyuan dinner party..."
The accompanying picture is a close-up photo of Zheng Qing dancing with Betta Xi on the dance floor. In the distance, you can vaguely see the side face of Jiang Yu who is whispering to Vivian - she seems to be very happy.
Zheng Qing had to admire the Clarion's photographer's ability to capture the picture.
"Having close relationships with multiple witches at the same time?"
How did you come to this ridiculous conclusion? Does dancing count as a close relationship? You know, most of the witches listed in the article were unknown to Zheng Qing before he went to Shanglin Garden. According to this logic, the wizards in Shanglin Garden
, every one of them has 'maintained close relationships with multiple witches at the same time'.
Zheng Qing shook his head, squinted his eyes, and read the report again. He always felt that there was something strange about it. However, due to limited time, he did not waste too much energy on this article and turned to other reports and articles.
After a simple combing.
What made Zheng Qing feel most fortunate was that the fact that Luna Houyhnhnm wanted to give birth to a foal for him had not been spread. He privately speculated that, on the one hand, very few people knew about it, and on the other hand,
Because of the conservativeness and sensitivity of the Houyhnhnms, reporters who want to gossip about them will consider Danhag's deterrent power before writing.
