Chapter 355 The Uncrowned King (Part 2)

Liu Jingting always has a neutral attitude towards the fashion field and adheres to the concept of "existence is reasonable". Although since high school, people have frequently had endless debates around him on this topic.

"Fashion is about a group of boring people gathering together, pretending to be nonsense, meaningless!" Some people thought so indignantly.

"Fashion is a way of life, a business and social activity, just like the NBA and the World Cup. If you talk about it carefully, if you chase a ball in the field, isn't it nonsense? Twenty people chase a ball in the field, isn't it even more nonsense?"

"Sports can participate in the whole nation and can strengthen the body. Fashion has a natural exclusivity, condescending and serious matters."

"Luxury is a kind of commercial activity, like private villas and private jets. If all follow the participation of the whole people, will these things be erased? Moreover, sports can strengthen the body, while fashion can make people more beautiful and fashionable."

"What is beauty and what is trend? Is it beautiful to just put a piece of cloth on your body?"

...

In short, it is a situation where "no one can convince anyone, but I am right, you are forcing me to argue".

Liu Jingting was also forced to express his opinion or arbitration. He could not say "Everyone has different opinions" in a harmonious manner. He was embarrassed to analyze and comment on the two, so he had to pretend that he didn't hear clearly what everyone was saying and asked very seriously.

Liu Jingting has always been exposed to fashion through this abstract way. He was unwilling to express his views at that time because he had never really been in contact. He thought he had no say, and now he was watching it on the spot, and it felt naturally different. At least when he encountered such a debate again, and everyone was familiar with him, he would not continue to avoid this topic, but instead expressed his own views with a reasonable and reasonable basis:

"Apart from the previous definitions, fashion is a show, especially when a model with a wide range of graces towards you, all languages ​​are pale and powerless. That feeling is similar to a slam dunk or a world wave, but I don't understand any other professional terms other than that."

After the first show, Xie Pei took a silver-haired lady to Liu Jingting. Xu Qing next to him said excitedly, although she whispered, "It's Miranda. It's Miranda..." While saying that, she subconsciously pulled Liu Jingting's clothes.

"Miranda Green, editor-in-chief of "Trend"," Since doing "Jianglu", Liu Jingting has been paying attention to all well-known magazines in China and abroad. This book "Trend" is one of the top fashion magazines in the United States. Its editor-in-chief is Mirananda Green, who is calling the wind and rain in the fashion circle.

However, Xu Qing did not pay attention to Liu Jingting's problem at all. Like many women whispering around, her eyes were faintly filled with fanatical light, staring at the white-haired woman walking over.

After Liu Jingting confirmed that Xie Pei was walking towards him, he quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Senior Sister."

"How is the show watching?"

"Although I don't understand everything, I feel very exciting."

Xie Pei smiled and then turned to Miranda and introduced in English: "This is my alumnus and the most popular best-selling writer in our country, Liu Jingting, or Gu Yongsheng. The youth literary magazine "Jinglu" edited by him is also the best-selling magazine in China at present."

Miranda stretched out her hand to Liu Jingting with a smile. Liu Jingting looked at the hand that was so tender, secretly ignored it in her heart, and then stretched out her hand politely.

"Hello." Miranda said in Chinese that she was not very familiar with.

"This is Mrs. Miranda Green, the editor-in-chief of the American history magazine "Trend."

"Hello, I've seen you in a magazine, but I didn't expect you to be more attractive than in a magazine." Liu Jingting replied in English. Although his pronunciation is combined with Chinese and foreign countries, it is rare to be very fluent and decent.

For Miranda, this kind of polite words was already bored with hearing them, but it was particularly useful by the sincere and simple Liu Jingting. What's more, the young man who said this just presented a "Venice Merchant" that surprised the world.

"Is this the first time Mr. Liu Jingting said such a thing?"

Miranda asked with an elegant smile on her face, as if she was casual and serious.

"This is the second time. I just saw Senior Sister Xie Pei and said it once because I saw her photos in the campus bulletin board."

Xie Pei continued with a smile: "I can testify for him."

Miranda laughed and then reached out and said, "I'm glad to know you, Mr. Liu Jingting."

"Me too."

“enjoytheshow!”

Miranda waved her hand and turned around and left. Xie Pei said, "I'll go there first."

"Senior sister, you're busy."

After Miranda left, the eyes of the blockbusters focused on Liu Jingting.

"Who is the Asian boy who is chatting and laughing with Miranda?"

"Who Fang Shensheng actually asked Miranda to come here to meet him, and it looks completely unfamiliar?"

These questions will be answered by the host before the next show begins.

"There are also Mr. Liu Jingting from China who came to the scene today!"

There are many people who don’t know Liu Jingting himself at the scene, but not many people have never heard of the name “Liu Jingting”.

Nobel's three-year bet.

Bet on sales and film and television adaptations.

The author of "The Little Prince".

"Romeo and Juliet", author of "Hamlet".

Xu Qing patted Liu Jingting, who seemed to be out of the situation, and said, "They are introducing you."

The next day, Liu Jingting's name appeared in the "Paris Competition Pictorial" with this show, continuing the style of "going to one city, leaving one".

Travel and time continue, but the plan to "travel separately" went bankrupt due to this show storm.

When Liu Jingting revisited his hometown and came to England again, it was already August of ten years of traveling. Coincidentally, while sitting on the London Underground with Xu Qing, he met a boy who had become a little wizard, wearing a black wizard robe and holding a wizard staff less than one meter in his hand.

Liu Jingting was surprised at first. Then he smiled and pointed at the boy, saying to Xu Qing: "Harry Potter's image comes from a little wizard."

"What Harry Potter?"

"The hero of the next children's novel to be promoted."

"You want to rewrite a fairy tale?"

Liu Jingting nodded and said, "Children, big and small, should also like it."

...

I only stayed in the UK for eight days. I went to Spain to watch bullfighting. After another month, I set off for South America and stopped for a week in Australia.

On the first Thursday of October 10, the new Nobel Prize was officially drawn. The most eye-catching award category this year is naturally the literary awards that have been debated for more than half a year.

On October 17, under the expectation, Sweden announced the winner of the Literature Prize, the writer Loza from Peru!

Caught off guard.

Unexpectedly.

It's reasonable.

"Nobel can never be guessed!"

This sentence has become an iron rule in the entire game.

However, unlike in the past, after the Literature Award was announced, the media did not immediately interview and report the winners, but first regretted Wilt and Gomingk, and then worried for Liu Jingting, who said he had "known as the end of the pen, but the world was full of wind and rain."

"Although that's it, I seem to have rarely heard from Liu Jingting again in the past month. It seems that he is now waiting for this result in a silent way in a corner of the world."

In fact, after "The Merchant of Venetian", mainstream media in European countries have become increasingly tolerant of Liu Jingting's "Nobel Bet" and even if they make jokes, they have been tempted. In particular, the Italian Evening Post clearly pointed out: "There is no decisive logical connection between the greatness of a writer and whether he wins the Nobel Prize. For example, "Waiting for Godot" and "Gitanjali", and "The Merchant of Venetian" and "Hamlet".

For a time, the whole world began to speak out for these three people. The academic representatives of France and India asked the Swedish Academy for explanation one after another, but naturally they were fruitless, because all the inside information and details of the Nobel Prize selection were top secret and it would not be made public in fifty years. The Swedish Academy's response was a simple sentence: "All results have been repeatedly reviewed and absolutely adhered to the principle of fairness and justice."

On October 20, Vientiane Academy issued an announcement to the world: "Waiting for Godot" is a graduation design work by Liu Jingting, a student from our school. It was recommended by Chairman Feng Changxing of the Writers Association and three linguistic professors from our school to the Swedish Academy of Literature to compete for the Nobel Prize in Literature! The result is a pity, but we have tried our best."

The announcement quickly sparked heated discussions around the world, and the French side quickly confirmed the news.

"From "Hamlet" to "Waiting for Godot" to "The Merchant of Venice", it is worthy of being Liu Jingting!"

"He is indeed not traveling peacefully, but if he loses Nobel because of "Waiting for Godot", I personally think this is not a real win or loss."

"Since Sweden knows the truth, it seems reasonable that "Waiting for Godot" did not win the award."

Just as this hot discussion storm was gradually boiling, on the 25th, Xingyue TV International issued a major statement: "The poetry collection "Gitanjali" is also the new work of Mr. Liu Jingting. He participated in the competition for this year's Nobel Prize in Literature together with "Waiting for Godot", and expressed regret for this result!"

It was like a meteorite falling from the sky, like a thunder thunder on the ground.

The hot discussion about "Waiting for Godot" has not stopped yet, and Xingyue released this news is like throwing a bomb on fire.

At some point, it seemed that the whole world had a brief moment of surprise. After that, the wave of hot discussion quickly gathered into huge waves.

"Waiting for Godot" and "Gitanjali" are all from Liu Jingting!

This news shocked too many people, and the twists and turns of the twists and turns were far beyond everyone's expectations.

Everyone guessed that Liu Jingting might just be a fake shot, but was playing a word game. Therefore, everyone's inference, including Lu Yichou, believed that Liu Jingting might "bring readers to the Nobel Prize" and challenge the Swedish Academy of Literature again in the way of dealing with Mo Zhiyu, or be clever and play casually for three years, and give up the loss indifferently.

In fact, Liu Jingting did not play conspiracy or cleverness, but adopted his usual method - facing all crises and challenges with real strength.

"Even if this is the case, it still disappoints everyone..."

On October 26, Liu Jingting suddenly updated his personal microblog, which caused reposts and comments from almost all Chinese people, and staged a real "not Chinese people if they don't turn". Many hard-core readers burst into tears in an instant.
