Chapter 376 Tang Lingyu
[A train slowly drove out of the train station, and the carriage was filled with women and children, and there was almost no strong man. In a carriage, there was a gray-haired war reserve veteran, and next to him was a weak and sick old woman. Apparently she was meditating alone, and the passengers heard her counting: "One, Two, Three," the sound overshadowed the "click" of the wheels. After a pause, she counted again from time to time. The two little girls saw this strange behavior, pointed and sneered without thinking. An old man glanced at them hard, and then the carriage calmed down.]
"Huh?" Robin, who likes to write novels, soon realized something. This strange "one, twe, three" is a short story, and whether it is the reserve veteran or the hard-earned man, the descriptions of these and other things are all about writing anti-war novels.
And just like the title, the numbers 1, 2, and 3 should be very important repetitions appear a lot, but it is difficult for Robin to figure out what this number means in the article in a short while.
He had previously said in public that if Su Shichen could not write a novel of that height, he would not be required to write it as well. But now Su Shichen has published a novel, and the meaning is naturally self-evident.
Robin wants to see what kind of short stories can Su Shichen write-?
["One, two, three," the unconscious old woman counted repeatedly.
The two little girls smirked again.
At this time, the gray-haired reserve veteran stood up and spoke. "Miss," he said, "when I tell you that this poor lady is my wife, you probably won't laugh anymore. We just lost three sons, who died in the war. Now it's my turn to go to the front line myself. I have to send their mother to the asylum before I leave."
The carriage was silent, terrible.]
It was a very short novel that could be read in a few seconds, but after reading it, Robin was silent for a long time.
After a while, he spoke: "So this is 1, 2, and 3." The old woman in the article kept repeating these three numbers on the train, just like a baby of a few years old, but the truth revealed in the end was beyond people's phenomena.
The 1, 2, and 3 that the old woman counted were counting her three sons. The three sons died on the front line, and now her elderly husband is going to the battlefield. The whole novel only has more than three hundred words. And she did not directly say that we should be peaceful and not fight, nor did she directly reveal any intention of anti-war. Of course, if we describe it directly, more than three hundred words would not do anything.
However, sometimes the side highlights are even more shocking, and those who have carefully read this mini novel should be touched.
If it weren't for the war, the old woman wouldn't have been crazy, if it weren't for the war, her three sons wouldn't have died, and if it weren't for the war, it wouldn't have caused the family to die. This is the indirect description that makes people think.
"It can be described to this point in a miniature novel of only 300 words. Su's ability to control words is too terrifying." Anyway, Robin thought he could not do it.
Such a miniature novel is more than one layer higher than his "World Love". "World Love" is more than 11,000 words he carefully carved, and it directly reaches the meaning of the novel's final anti-war through three small stories connected. The structure and intention are very good, but in comparison, Robin found that the anti-war shock brought to people by his own "World Love" is not as big as this "one, twe, three".
"I am completely ineligible to say that sentence when I look at it this way." How could such a person be an outsider? What he said in public before is a joke.
Log in to Morest's official website, Robin published such an article using the account of his participating author...?
——
"Very good, it's really good, but it didn't meet my requirements, so I scored zero."
"Zero points, the reason is that it still does not meet my requirements."
"Although gentlemen cannot make ladies sad, I'm sorry, zero points."
"Zero points..."
...
"God, the cold judges are starting again." A female audience member present suddenly shouted.
It really started again. Since the first Su Shichen gave ten of them to the forever, everyone thought that Su Shichen was under pressure and lowered his head, but then the second and third ones were zero points behind.
I don’t understand what Su Shichen is going to do at this rhythm. You said he didn’t bow his head, but why did he get a 10-point rating? If you say he bowed his head, what does it mean to keep zero points now? I don’t understand.
"It's really crazy. You dare to be unscrupulous under such circumstances." Frey sighed.
Today's fifteenth author, Tom, is a black man. More than forty authors have come here from yesterday to today. This includes all kinds of people. Although most of them feel that they are gentle and kind, there are also many rude people, but it seems that Tom is like this, and there are really few.
According to the information, it should be a student, but it is quite non-mainstream. The clothes are rivets one by one, a chain as thick as a finger on the dark jeans, and the hairstyle that looks like a sunflower blooming cannot tell the slightest look of the student. The most important thing is that the guy's eyes remain on Su Shichen's body as soon as he came on stage, and he couldn't take his eyes away.
There was a passion in his eyes, and this kind of gaze was like a fan seeing the male god he loved. It would be fine if a girl was staring at him with such a gaze, but this was a man, and Su Shichen felt uncomfortable all over.
Therefore, Frey, the deputy editor-in-chief of Global, should have asked, but Su Shichen couldn't stand this gaze and spoke first: "Mr. Tom, tell me why you wrote this article."
"Su, I put it on my wall of "A Black Dream" you wrote, and you can see it every day when you wake up, and "A**ner's Dream" is very well written. I believe Su, you can write short stories with profound meanings." Tom spoke in a very hoarse accent, unable to hide his excitement.
The short story he wrote is a prominent yearning for a better life, which seems to be a copy of Su Shichen's article "A Black Man's Dream".
In contrast, the college entrance examination essay "A Dream of a **man" is far less famous than "A Dream of a Black Man". The former has only caused a small-scale discussion, but the latter can be regarded as the article with the most translated languages.
If Tom's expression was not due to the venue, I believe Tom would have rushed towards Su Shichen directly.
"We understand your emotions, but please answer the questions first," Frey added.
"My friends and I, a total of more than a dozen people, participated in this competition because Su was a judge of the Morest Short Story Competition. Unexpectedly, my short stories have come to this point. My classmates and the others have been eliminated. It's so cool to be able to face Su you." Tom said.
"Well, I just want to say that Tom, your outfit is really cool." Su Shichen knocked on his head, "Tom, are you a rock singer?" If he is a rock singer, it would be reasonable.
"Rock singers sound great, but I'm not." Tom replied, "I just think I should wear my personality."
Start rating, Mike, Frey and Liszt scored 22 points. "Tom, I'm sorry." Su Shichen apologized first.?
Tom waved his hand, "I know. Sue, I didn't get the zero score. I was already a surprise when I was shortlisted, it was okay." Although it was another zero score, Tom's words made people think.
Everyone knows that the number of participants in this Morest Short Story Competition is the largest in history, and the quality of the works is also very good. Now it seems that this effect is that they have always said that Su Shichen, who is not suitable for being a judge.
Although they are not familiar with "A Black Man's Dream", "A Black Man's Dream" is widely circulated. Su Shichen, who can write such connotations, really doesn't understand short stories. Is he really an outsider?
This is because Su Shichen does not have any substantial short stories. Of course, "Research on Green Words" and "The Sad One" are naturally not translated, and even if it is translated, it has nothing to do with this competition.
The sixteenth author is from China, Bergman. Su Shichen was quite impressed by the name Tang, and he thought it was very good during the review. But when the author came up, Su Shichen was really stunned. He knew the person he hadn't seen for a long time.
I haven't seen each other for several years. Now Tang Lingyu is graceful and has a delicate appearance. He doesn't have a childlike face like Zhao Dandan. He is close to Wang Ni, and is a little different from the iceberg. Tang Lingyu gives people the feeling that he is making fire on an iceberg, and the little temperature cannot resist the coldness. The indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth cannot cover up the cold breath.
"9 points, delicate writing, very small scenes, just a coffin and a person, but a very big world was drawn through the phone." Liszt gave the first excellent evaluation, "Of course I don't know the national conditions of China, so I'll ask Editor-in-Chief Frey in this regard."
Frey spent half a year in China, so he said that the national conditions of China, "I have always heard that the department with the strongest comprehensive strength in China is the relevant departments,... Well, I don't know if I translated it wrongly. According to my understanding, the relevant departments should be ruling the responsibility. Ms. Bergman's article tells the story of a person being put in a coffin and buried alive. Only one mobile phone calls outside for help, call the government, etc., but was harassed and ruled out layer by layer. The ending of the article is that the mobile phone is out of battery."
"In this case, you can imagine the consequences of the phone running out of battery. Ms. Bergman's article is very good in terms of details and intention, with a score of 9.6."
"Thank you two judges." It is normal for ordinary authors to get such high evaluations and get excited about high scores, but what Tang Lingyu's eyes revealed was dullness, just as if it was natural that she could get such high scores in "Buried Live" by her.
"I haven't seen such an article for a long time. Bergman can open a column in newspapers and magazines at his level." Basically, short stories that can be entered in the Morest Short Stories Competition are qualified to be published in newspapers and magazines, but Mike's evaluation of Tang Lingyu can directly open a column, and the difference is quite large.
In the end, Mike gave 9.5 points, Liszt 9 points, and Frey's high score caused applause, which was already the second highest score this time.
""Buried Alive" completely met my requirements, so I scored 10 points." Su Shichen was the second tenth today, and he applauded even more enthusiastically as soon as he finished speaking. The total score was 38.1 points, which is the highest score so far. If nothing unexpected happens, it may be the best this year.?
Su Shichen's tone was filled with a remembrance, "Long time no see Bergman, I didn't expect that your writing style is so terrifying now." In his memory, Tang Lingyu competed with him when he was still in junior high school. It seemed that it had only been four years in a flash.
He has made more than one progress. The article "Buried Live" written by Tang Lingyu is already full of the taste of a master. You should know that Tang Lingyu is only nineteen years old now.
Su Shichen's tone was just telling everyone clearly that he and Tang Lingyu knew each other. Su Shichen just gave a full mark. Although the quality of the novel is very high, in this case, it should be avoided as much as possible. Even if it is not avoided, there is no need to call it out like Su Shichen, as if others don't know it.
"Long time no see, as an old classmate." Tang Lingyu said, "Su, is it really not because we were classmates that we were favoritism?"?
"Of course not." Su Shichen shook his head.
"What is that?"
Tang Lingyu asked a question that everyone wanted to know. Su Shichen's weird rating method, the nickname of the cold judge was not in vain. You said that he was hyping it seems that he had gone through because the layman couldn't find the end? Then just give a random intermediate score, there is no need to do this at all.
Su Shichen's answer was inconspicuous and everyone was waiting for her breath...?
ps: The character Tom is useful, not useless description.
"one,twe,three" was originally named "In Berlin"
The story of "Buried Alive" quotes a movie directed by Cotez in Spain. If you are interested, you can check it out. (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!)
