The strongest brain in entertainment

Chapter 272 Is there anything more difficult?

The recording of the program was completed, and it was already past 10 o'clock in the evening. Under the arrangement of the program group, 20 students from the four famous schools came to a famous Chinese restaurant.

A group of people walked into the Chinese restaurant and couldn't help but be attracted by the cultural atmosphere here.The restaurant is not only decorated in a very Chinese style, but even the walls are hung with calligraphy and paintings of ancient and modern celebrities.There are Zhang Daqian's "Peach of Taoyuan", Mi Fu's "Poems on Duojinglou", Gu Kaizhi's "Painting Yuntai Mountain", etc., of course they are all printed works!
Under the guidance of the waiter, everyone walked into the private room, where there were a total of three tables.Students, producers, hosts, planners and other staff took their seats in turn.Except for Li Fan and Gu Yating who have not yet arrived, everyone else has already arrived.

Li Fan and the others didn't go with everyone at the first time because they were grinding their mouths in the director's office.

In the private room, before the dishes were served, everyone chatted while waiting for Li Fan.

Chen Yu said that he had finally seen what it means to have blue veins exposed and his eyes bulging and red. In Zhang Ye's final PK with Li Fan, his "beastly" instincts were aroused, like a lion wanting to eat human flesh.

Zhang Ye rolled his eyes straight away, "Who said that Beijing University will be destroyed in minutes? Who said the bold words that Beijing University will not be returned if it is not destroyed?"

Lu Peng added on the side: "Which school can't even produce three couplets?"

Chen Hua and the others laughed endlessly.

Chen Yu said again: "Zhang Ye, actually, I really don't think there is any difference between you and Li Fan. If it weren't for the advanced technology, with the naked eye and ears, I really wouldn't be able to tell that you are really inferior to others."

Zhang Ye said, "Are you praising me or burying me?"

Chen Yu smiled: "Just take it as a good word!"

Another person said: "We saw that you were spitting stars flying all over the place, you must be surging in your heart, right?"

Zhang Ye squinted his eyes, recalling the previous scene.After the answering session ended, he felt a sense of collapse for a moment.He has released all the energy stored in his body, although he has no regrets in defeat.But at the moment when the game was over, he thought that the opponent on the opposite side still had more strength.

He is not the only one who thinks that Li Fan still has more energy, many people think so.At the moment when the game ended, although Li Fan was a little excited and emotional, his demeanor was calm and his body language was calm, which in a sense indicated that perhaps Li Fan's talent hadn't fully exploded yet.

Of course, these are just random thoughts of these people.On the stage of this type of competition, Li Fan is very restrained in his performance. He has never had any uncontrollable body language or wanton behavior.

Someone talked about the three couplets again, and everyone was very interested in it, but they couldn't come up with the second couplets, which are all masterpieces in terms of rhythm and artistic conception.After many days since its birth, those three couplets are already the top three couplets in Chinese literature.

Huang Jiajia from Zhejiang University took out a diary from her bag, and there was a piece of letter paper in it. She showed it to everyone, and said: "Professor Cheng from our school asked me to bring it, and he said that Li Fan must have a look at it, and leave it behind." Next comment."

Just as everyone gathered around curiously, at this moment, the door of the private room was pushed open, and Li Fan and Gu Yating walked in.

"Hey, Li Fan, it just so happens that this is the second couplet that Professor Cheng from our school is right about. Check it out."

Li Fan smiled lightly, and after receiving it in his hand, he saw a line of meaningful regular script on this piece of letter paper:

Willows in the smoke lock pond, (lights sprinkled on Jinxiu Temple); Li Fan, please correct the axe.

Li Fan frowned slightly, but there was still a smile on his face. How can this couplet be flawed!The biggest flaw is that there is no artistic conception.After all, "Yan Suo Pond Willow" has the hazy artistic conception beauty and strong sense of picture of the ancient couplet, which is really the absolute of absolutes. The more you chew, the more flavorful it becomes, as if you are in front of you. A scene of a pond filled with mist.

But the artistic conception of this second couplet is obviously worse.

But it's a bit bad to point fingers at professors from other schools. Li Fan said vaguely: "Not bad, he deserves to be a professor."

Huang Jiajia excitedly said: "Then we are right?"

"Uh... this..." Li Fan was stunned for a moment, and then changed the topic subtly, "A good couplet, but I'll see if there will be a more subtle one, although the chances of this are very slim .”

Chenggong said: "Li Fan, please give me the couplets of the three couplets, the people of the whole country are getting impatient."

Li Fan thought for a while, "That's good."

After receiving the notebook and gel pen handed over by Huang Jiajia, Li Fan was about to pick up the pen when the restaurant owner yelled, "Wait a minute!"

Everyone looked at the boss at the door in unison, not knowing why.

The boss turned around and shouted to the waiter: "Prepare pens, inks, papers and inkstones!"

Everyone in the room fainted, you are too formal here, right?
Li Fan also waved his hand in embarrassment, "Boss, there's really no need. I just need to write a few words. What you're doing is too formal."

The boss looked serious, "No, no, I read your handwriting, I know your level, please wait a moment."

The boss has actually seen Li Fan's calligraphy. After all, Li Fan has shown it in the show, but the boss really doesn't understand how good Li Fan's calligraphy is. Although he likes to collect calligraphy and paintings, he only does it to increase value. That's all.But many guests on the show commented on Li Fan's handwriting, saying that he was the undoubted leader among the younger generation, so that must be great.

Moreover, when Li Fan's calligraphy is hung in the lobby, the reputation of his restaurant will definitely increase. After all, this is a celebrity calligraphy and painting, and the key is the word "celebrity"!

Not long after, a waiter came in with the Four Treasures of the Study, and spread the cut gold-sprinkled red rice paper on the table.

The boss poured ink into the inkstone himself, and said with a smile, "Li Fan, please!"

Everyone in the room looked at each other, and the atmosphere was very strange.After all, it's awkward to have such a thing in a private dining room, and the boss is a little bit too much.

Li Fan also feels the same way. I really can't do it. I'm not a calligrapher. You can't help but get goosebumps when you come out like this, but I'm too embarrassed to say no because you are so enthusiastic.

Li Fan let out a breath, picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, raised his hand and swiped it down on the rice paper, and immediately a line of majestic, dignified and powerful scripts appeared on the paper: Wangjianglou, Wangjiangliu, Wangjianglou Looking down at the river flow, the river tower is eternal, and the river flow is eternal.

The onlookers were amazed. Everyone never expected that Li Fan's calligraphy skills were so superb.

At first, everyone thought it was a bit too pretentious to use calligraphy for this occasion, but now everyone fully agrees with the boss's reckless move. How can the small gel pen reveal the richness and richness of this font? What about style?

"Wow, your word is perfect!"

"The brushwork is tactful and subtle, elegant and graceful!"

"It has the elegance of Wang Xizhi and the thinness of Zhao Ji. It's so beautiful."

……

Li Fan raised his head and looked at everyone who was sighing. He thought to himself: If you practice calligraphy every day, you can do it too!

Li Fan raised his wrist, shook his pen on another piece of rice paper, and a couplet was born:
Yinyuejing, Yinyueying, Yinyueying in Yinyuejing, Moonwell for ten thousand years, Moonying for ten thousand years.

"Wow, this second line is beautiful!"

"Tsk tsk, the person who untied the bell is still the one who tied it. With such a horizontal comparison, so many downloads on the Internet pale in comparison!"

"Absolutely, Shuai Li, it has to be your original second line!"

Li Fan just smiled, picked up his pen again, and wrote:

First couplet: Girl Qiao is naturally delicate and hates rouge and glue-shaped faces.

The second couplet: Zhige is martial arts, why bother to cast darts made of copper and iron.

Everyone gathered together to study:

"Wow, you use 'Wu' so wonderfully, it complements Zhou Lang!"

"Exquisite!"

"It seems it has to be the standard answer!"

……

Snapped!
Putting down his handwriting, Li Fan said: "It's done!"

"Okay? Is there another couplet?"

"That's right, where is the second couplet of 'Smoke Locks Pond Willow'?"

Li Fan shook his head: "That's a couplet that I don't have a satisfactory answer to. I hope someone can give a perfect answer in the future."

This first couplet has many second couplets from ancient times to the present, such as Tao Ran Jinjiang Embankment, Zhu Nuohe Dam Pine, etc., but they are all more or less meaningless. Li Fan also thought a lot, and there is no perfect second couplet. , Otherwise, how can this first couplet be eternal and absolute?
Moreover, Qiangu can definitely be described as a game - "Let's Find Differences"!No matter how beautiful and perfect you are, the literary world will find some flaws in you.

"You're a deadly couplet, you're even fooling yourself!"

Li Fan smiled, then a call came, so he walked out of the private room and answered the call.

The call was made by the editor-in-chief Zhu of "Guoxue Times", saying that Li Fan's "Lianlu Tongru" was unanimously approved after discussion by experts, and will be published as the official guidelines of "Huaguo Couplets Competition".

Editor-in-chief Zhu also said that "Chinese Studies Times" has a special event. They will publish eight first couplets online and collect second couplets from readers across the country. The event will last from September to New Year's Day, and the winners will be published in "Chinese Studies Times". Announced in the Couplet Competition" and received certain rewards.

Editor-in-Chief Zhu hoped that Li Fan would publish another upper couplet, which would be embarrassing for the common people of China. Li Fan did not publish a new one, so he added this "Smoke Lock Pond Willow" to the national solicitation activity, and Li Fan also promised that once the second couplet was approved by Li Fan, he would Additional rewards will be given out!

Editor-in-Chief Zhu: "Li Fan, you wrote the first couplet yourself, but you really don't have the second couplet?"

"Well, nothing is perfect."

"Hey, it's not easy! Then, what is your extra reward?"

"I'm thinking about it too!"

"Uh... I thought of one, it's called Li Fan's Dinner Party, isn't there a 'Luncheon for Stock Gods', let's have a 'Li Fan's Dinner Party'!"

"You're so funny!"

"I'm not teasing you, it's settled!"

When Li Fan returned to the private room, he saw that everyone was taking pictures in front of the two couplets with their mobile phones, and the owner of the restaurant asked: "Li Fan, can I show you these two couplets in the store?" Show off."

Li Fan said with a smile: "Then see if your food is good or not!"

The boss laughed loudly: "Just look at it, it's not only delicious, but also free of charge! From now on, as long as you come to our restaurant, you will be free of charge."

After the boss finished speaking, he happily rolled up the two couplets by himself, as if he had found a treasure.

To put it bluntly, this banquet was a fancy way of flattering Li Fan. Frankly speaking, Li Fan had a very clear understanding of himself, and if it was someone else, he would have been in high spirits.

Everyone likes to hear good things, and Li Fan is no exception. Facing other people's praises for "innovating new tricks", he can maintain the necessary calmness while being happy. He will never fly like a kite. This is It's rare and valuable.

Li Fan deeply understands: the deeper the research, the more ignorant he is!The consequence of getting carried away is necessarily stagnation.

However, in private, you should brag and brag, or how boring and depressing life is?Have a good time, have a good time.

After returning to the hotel, Gu Yating couldn't help but praised: "Li Fan, your handwriting has improved a lot compared to a year ago, really."

"Correct you, that's called calligraphy! Calligraphy!!"

"Those two second couplets of yours are so exquisite."

"That's natural, Li Fan's product must be a high-quality product."

"Hey Li Fan, can you stop bragging?"

"Whether I brag or not depends entirely on whether I can go to bed tonight!"

Gu Yating lay down on the bed, completely overwhelmed, "Then you should brag, I happen to be cool!"

……

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.

Li Fan woke up early, and turned on his mobile phone casually, but saw that Weibo had been completely blown up, and all kinds of offlinks from the majority of netizens had been sent to him, all kinds of various.

After careful observation, it can be found that more than [-]% of them were sent by female fans, and it is estimated that they all came for Li Fan's dinner party.

Li Fan had no choice but to issue a statement, informing netizens to submit articles directly to the "Chinese Studies Times", but he himself did not review the articles on Weibo.

After putting down the phone, Li Fan stretched lazily, and after moving his limbs, he stood up and walked to the bed, propped his arms and carefully looked at her sweet sleeping face, and didn't know what dream she was having. Woolen cloth.

After washing his hands lightly, Li Fan quietly left the hotel and took a taxi to the Radio and Television Center.

In the office, Production Sun had been waiting for Li Fan for a long time. Seeing Li Fan open the door and come in, he put down his work, handed him a folder, and said, "Look first, this is set by our column team. Some challenge projects."

After that, Production Sun made a call to other staff members.

Within 3 minutes, the planners, producers, etc. all came to the office. Some of them stuck directly behind Li Fan, and some pulled up chairs and sat aside, explaining some projects to Li Fan from time to time.

Every time Li Fan looked at a project, he would close his eyes and meditate for a moment, thinking about whether it was worth the challenge. After all, some of the projects in it were too simple for him.

For example, when remembering numbers, Li Fan laughed when he saw this. He still holds the unattainable world record in the field of memory. It is too childish to challenge this.

"Uh, Li Fan, this is obviously not suitable for you."

"Li Fan, although it is not suitable for you, for other contestants, it is still a project for them to show themselves."

Li Fan turned another page, and this project is to identify color blocks in images, which is not difficult for Li Fan.

After reading through the entire challenge project, Li Fan said apologetically: "Are there any other projects?"

Mr. Sun said in surprise: "Is it too simple?"

Li Fan shook his head quickly, "It's not all easy. There are many projects that I can't complete at all. I'm also thinking about projects that suit me and make me worthy of the challenge. To be honest, I'm still not particularly satisfied with this book."

Sun Zuowei asked suspiciously: "Li Fan, what kind of difficult project do you want to challenge?"

Li Fan thought for a while, "Uh... I can bring out my full potential. I'm not afraid of failure, and it doesn't matter if I fail on stage. I hope there will be a good challenge."

The chief planner was surprised and said: "It doesn't matter if you fail on stage?"

Li Fan nodded affirmatively, "Yeah, it doesn't matter."

"But your current status means that you can only succeed but not fail. You are perfect in the public eye, and your position is also an invincible genius. If you fail in the challenge, it will be a huge damage to your personal image. "

Li Fan said calmly: "It's okay."

"No problem?"

"Well, it's okay! I didn't participate in this program to gild myself, but to use it to study myself, and also to see talents from all walks of life in Huaguo. I'm also very curious about them."

The challenge project was not finalized for a while, so Li Fan had no choice but to get up and leave. However, there was not much time left for them, after all, the recording time for the [-]th came in a blink of an eye.

When I left the Broadcasting and Television Center and took the plane back to Peking University, the entire campus of Peking University had disappeared. The military training of freshmen at Peking University officially ended this morning.

The freshmen took off their military training uniforms and put on their daily clothes, but the greenness and longing on their faces were still different from the seniors.

As soon as Li Fan returned to the campus, before he reached the dormitory building, he was stopped by Lu Yaya's phone call, telling them to go to the rehearsal room to rehearse, and also told him that in this orientation party, freshmen only have 3 places for programs. The competition is very fierce, let Li Fan hurry up and get ready, don't be dropped by PK.

Li Fan routinely brags: "With my looks, how can I be better?"

The person on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment. He was probably weighing the importance of looks and talent. Then he heard Lu Yaya spat, "Damn, don't be shameless, come here quickly!"

Li Fan turned his head to look at Gu Yating, and said with a smile, "Our show is finally coming out, I'm a little excited when I think about it, let's go."

Gu Yating didn't say a word, she felt that since she met Li Fan, her life had gone astray!Totally off track! !This guy is completely planning to ruin his image as a goddess!
