388. Sir, you are a great talent, please give me a question!
Who else?
An understatement, three words without any emotion.
But it made everyone at the scene slightly shocked, and their eyes widened when they looked at Wang Cheng.
Two words appear in everyone's mind - domineering!
Taro Ika, who had been completely ignored by Wang Cheng, looked pale and his eyes were filled with disappointment.
Lu Zhen, Jia Qian, Nakamura Yuji, Xuezi and others who Wang Cheng looked at all felt a lot of pressure. Several people were slightly absent-minded for a moment. Under Wang Cheng's calm eyes and tone, there was a huge pressure like a mountain.
.
Even Lu Zhen and Jia Qian, both old friends for many years, were speechless for a moment!
Lu Zhen took a deep breath, trying to get rid of the huge pressure from Wang Cheng and say something to lighten the atmosphere.
Xuezi next to her suddenly stood up and said with a blushing face: "I'll do it!"
Everyone at the scene who was still in a state of shock was once again stunned. They looked at Yukiko who stood up, and only then did they notice this ridiculously beautiful prince of the island nation's royal family.
Zheng Wenzhong couldn't help but whisper: "Is this the princess of the island country's royal family? Is she her biological child? For hundreds of generations, the island country's royal family has never produced such a beautiful princess."
Zheng Qian said softly: "I heard that those who have done a paternity test must be of biological blood. There is no doubt about this. Now that she can stand up on her own initiative, I am a little surprised. Wang Cheng's momentum overwhelmed Lu Zhen and Jia Qian.
Even Yukiko is speechless, but a little girl like Xuezi has the courage to stand up. This little girl will have no limit to her future."
The middle-aged man in front said: "I heard that this Yukiko is one of the people who has studied the couplets most deeply in the island country's literary world. He has won the championship in the national couplet competition organized by the royal family! In the couplets, he must be second to that Taro Ika.
It’s really possible to challenge Wang Cheng.”
After hearing this, several people around were a little worried about Wang Cheng, but then they shook their heads and smiled confidently. Thinking of Wang Cheng's action of writing the second line in less than a second, they had an inexplicable trust in Wang Cheng.
Under the gaze of everyone, Xuezi also walked up to the podium from his seat and came to the side of Wang Cheng. He looked curiously at Wang Cheng up and down. Looking at Wang Cheng so close, Xuezi's eyes flashed.
Stunning, Wang Cheng's looks and temperament made her even inferior.
"Xuezi admires your talent, sir, and came here to ask for advice."
Xue Zi said politely.
Wang Cheng glanced at Xuezi indifferently, but still said nothing. He just gently stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, indicating that you can just write and stop talking nonsense.
Of course, this was the first time for Xuezi to meet such a cold and heartless person like Wang Cheng. She took a deep breath to calm herself down and stopped talking immediately. Knowing that speaking with strength was the best way to talk at this time, she immediately walked to the empty seat next to her.
, picked up the brush and started writing.
As soon as he picked up the pen, the eyes of all the knowledgeable literary people in the front row lit up.
As the saying goes, an expert will know if something is there as soon as he takes action.
Xuezi's movement of holding the brush reveals a fluidity like flowing water, and a water-like softness that is unique to women. With this in mind, even before the pen is written, everyone knows that Xuezi is good at calligraphy.
He definitely has extraordinary attainments.
Zhang Yiheng, Zhang Guobin, Xing Tongshu, Lin Nianxiang, Mr. Han and other big names also stared closely at Prince Xuezi, who was highly praised by the island nation's literary circles.
The moment Xuezi's brush fell on the white paper, she waved her wrist steadily. Between each stroke, there was no wind, rain or thunder, only flowing clouds and flowing water, and a trace of courage and perseverance.
"This Xuezi's running script has gone a long way toward becoming a master. He is expected to reach the realm of a master in this life."
Lin Nianxiang commented lightly.
And Lin Bing knew that besides Wang Cheng, this was the highest praise Lin Nianxiang had given him so far.
After all, not everyone is qualified as a calligraphy master.
For example, Lin Bing, the heir who has been trained by Lin Nianxiang for more than ten or twenty years, in Lin Nianxiang's view, it will be difficult for him to reach the master level in this life, and his talent will be a little bit behind.
And Xuezi, the talent displayed at this time is enough to touch the realm of calligraphy master.
After hearing Lin Nianxiang's words, Mr. Han nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, her attainments in running script exceed that of many calligraphers who have studied running script for many years. Her talent is very high! However, in front of Wang Cheng, she is not worth it.
mentioned."
These words made Lin Nianxiang and Xing Tongshu smile silently and bitterly.
Compared with Wang Cheng?
Who can compare with Wang Cheng...?
At the age of nineteen, you recognized me as the best calligrapher in the world today!
Who in history can achieve this?
Even Wang Youjun, who is said to be the best running script in China, was in his twenties when he became famous. His age when he wrote the preface to Lanting is not certain, but he was at least in his thirties or fifties!
There is no one like Wang Cheng who became a master of calligraphy at the age of only nineteen.
Therefore, throughout history, perhaps only Wang Youjun can compare with Wang Cheng in terms of calligraphy talent, and no one else can compare!
All the calligraphers on the scene were tied together, and none of them were qualified.
Therefore, compared with Wang Cheng, he is acting like a hooligan.
However, considering the age, it is natural.
Xuezi is only twenty years old and Wang Cheng is nineteen years old. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the same age.
However, Zhang Guobin had something to say and said in a low voice: "There are many people in our country who can compare with Xuezi!"
Zhang Guobin knew that within the Beijing circle, there were no fewer than three young calligraphers who were as good at calligraphy as Xuezi now, and they were about the same age, only in their twenties.
Not to mention other places, you can find at least two or three, but in the island country, there is only one like Yukiko.
Therefore, in a competition between geniuses, China will definitely win!
Of course, if Wang Cheng is included, then Wang Cheng alone can crush the entire island country.
Suddenly, Zhang Guobin thought of the young people in Beijing and felt sorry for them. If you work so hard, you may be destined to become Wang Cheng's background in the future.
At this time, the host on the podium read out the first couplet written by Xuezi and whispered: "Dense trees, pines, cypresses, sycamores, willows!"
Many people who were talking in the audience immediately shut up and looked at Xuezi on the podium. Looking at the freehand calligraphy written by Xuezi, and listening to what the host read, almost everyone immediately saw it.
The mystery in it.
“This first couplet is all related to wood!”
Xing Tongshu said immediately.
Zhang Guobin, Li Qing and others also nodded in agreement.
Then, everyone looked thoughtful and began to think about how to write a neat second line.
At the same time, every pair of eyes immediately looked at Wang Cheng, wanting to see how Wang Cheng would respond. Can he still do what he did when he faced Taro Ika just now, writing without thinking?
Xuezi, who had just finished writing, immediately looked at Wang Cheng, and then a trace of surprise appeared on her pretty face.
Everyone else who looked at Wang Cheng was also shocked for a moment, and then felt relieved...
because.
As expected, Wang Cheng glanced at the first couplet written by Xuezi, then picked up his pen and started writing.
Hardly any thinking.
Just like a robot, after reading the first line, it automatically generates the second line.
Several big guys in the audience, who are well-known for being good at couplets, shook their heads and smiled bitterly, their faces a little red. They felt what real talent and strength are today!
Afterwards, all eyes were fixed on Wang Cheng's brush!
I saw...
As expected, Wang Cheng switched his calligraphy from cursive to running script.
Because Xuezi writes running script.
Therefore, Wang Cheng also used running script to write couplets.
Writing as soon as he picks up the pen is more freehand than Xuezi's writing, and each stroke has more artistic conception.
The host immediately followed up and read: "Try water, rivers, streams, lakes and seas! Perfect..."
The host could tell at a glance that this was a perfect and neat second line, with the three-dot water radical used in all of it.
Everyone at the scene was a little surprised, but it didn’t seem so surprising, and it was a little natural!
Xing Tongshu smiled bitterly in a low voice and said: "I really don't know how his mind thinks. This couplet doesn't seem difficult. Give me time and I can figure it out. But he just wrote it without taking any time to think.
Oh, it’s amazing!”
Zhang Guobin and Li Qing were also speechless.
Xuezi on the podium looked at the perfect and neat second line written by Wang Cheng, bit her lip gently, then looked at Wang Cheng, and saw that Wang Cheng was really staring at her, extending her hand to invite her, indicating to continue!
Xuezi took a deep breath, calmed down her emotions, and said softly: "Sir, you are a great talent!"
Then, Xuezi picked up the pen and continued writing.
This time, Xuezi wrote faster.
Everyone in the audience fell silent again, just craning their necks and watching...
The host also recited very dedicatedly: "Winds and rains, warmth and cold, I'm looking for you everywhere!"
Xing Tongshu immediately said: "Fold the couplet!"
Of course, other people in the literary world also saw the mystery of this first couplet at a glance, which was the overlapping words, but it was definitely not something that could be thought of in a short while to make a neat second couplet. Everyone started thinking about it immediately.
However, when they looked at Wang Cheng, they found that Wang Cheng was writing directly. All the people in the literary world who were just about to think smiled bitterly and stopped thinking. They first looked at the answers written by Wang Cheng!
The host also quickly read out: "Yingyingyanyanyan, flowers and leaves, Qingqing morning and evening!"
“Well written!”
Immediately, someone in the audience couldn't help shouting.
It was obviously an insider who knew about couplets. When he saw that Wang Cheng kept making neat second couplets one after another so quickly, he finally couldn't help but scream.
There was also a hint of admiration in Yukiko's eyes on the stage. She didn't have as strong a desire to win as Taro Ika and Yuji Nakamura. She enjoyed the process of communication and the process of learning and accumulation. She was a relatively pure person.
Therefore, she was not shocked, but a flash of thought flashed in her eyes, and then she started writing again.
Wang Cheng looked at Xuezi who was writing again, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that this island royal princess was still a simple scholar.
And Xuezi quickly wrote a first couplet!
The host immediately read out: "Chao Yun Chao Chao... uh... Chao Yun Chao Chao Chao Chao Chao retreat... uh, I'm sorry, I don't know how to read it..."
The host, who graduated from the Communication Department with a major in broadcasting, was naturally a little ashamed and stared at the first couplet again, trying to find the correct pronunciation.
Everyone in the audience was stunned for a moment, and then they understood that the secret of this first couplet may lie in the reading method. Only when you can read it smoothly can you write a neat second couplet!
To find the correct pronunciation of the multi-phonetic character Chao...
A trace of pride flashed in Xuezi's eyes. This was a first couplet she had gotten by chance before. Until now, she had never thought of a neat second couplet. At this time, even professional broadcast hosts were stumped. It was obviously very successful.
.
Everyone in the audience was full of thoughts...
Xing Tongshu said in a low voice: "This first couplet is really thoughtful and uses polyphonic characters."
but……
When Xuezi looked at Wang Cheng, she found that Wang Cheng had already begun to write. She was speechless and couldn't help being shocked.
She thought about it for a long time, but she still didn't have a neat second line.
result……
Wang Cheng is writing as soon as he picks up his pen again?
Can't you think about it for a few more seconds and make it look like this first couplet is difficult?
A hint of bitterness also escaped from the corner of Xuezi's mouth.
Xing Tongshu and others in the audience were naturally speechless. Before they could figure out the pronunciation, Wang Cheng had already started writing.
The host was also a little speechless and did not read out the words immediately.
because……
She made a fool of herself when she read the first couplet of Xuezi's poem just now, failing to understand it. Now looking at the second couplet of Wang Cheng's, she didn't know how to read it for a moment.
Everyone clearly saw that Wang Cheng wrote a seemingly neat second line.
"The water flows long and long!"
At this time, when the upper and lower couplets were compared, all the knowledgeable people in the industry had a look of surprise on their faces, and instantly understood the mystery.
"What a polyphonic word!"
"The first couplet is good, but the second couplet is even better. Wang Cheng really didn't think about it and just wrote it!"
"To make a judgment, I really feel that there is no need to compete. Wang Cheng has been writing down the couplet, and the difficulty is much more difficult than that of the person who made the first couplet. In this way, the two opponents can't trouble Wang Cheng in turns. I really feel that they are not the same
At this level, Wang Cheng hasn’t even published a single question yet.”
"I admire the perseverance of the princess of the island country. She came up under huge pressure to make a mess in the ratings. Now she still has the courage to face such Wang Cheng. I admire her!"
"I understand……"
…
After all, the host is a professional in broadcasting, and he quickly figured out the correct pronunciation. He immediately read the upper and lower couplets smoothly and matched them very neatly and perfectly.
At this time, Xuezi's face also looked a little helpless.
She really tried her best. Even though she still had a few very difficult first couplets that she had not succeeded in, they were still at a similar level. She knew that even if she succeeded, she would not be able to trouble Wang Cheng, and there was no point in doing so.
but……
She cannot just give up and step down.
Because, in the couplet competition, you cannot let your opponent fail to answer a single question. That would be impolite.
so!
Xuezi gritted his teeth and whispered: "Please ask Mr. Wang Cheng to come up with the question!"
Wang Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in a calm tone: "Are you sure?"
Xuezi nodded and said firmly: "Of course, this is the rule!"
Wang Cheng nodded, knowing that Xuezi was indeed a relatively pure person, so he didn't waste any time and started writing on the white paper.
