child prodigy at eighty

This year's arena is more lively than last year, with many more participants and several times more spectators.As soon as Song Shiyu and the others arrived, they saw the students in their calligraphy class standing together with great momentum holding up big cards made of cardboard.

Song Shiyu didn't even notice.

why?There are three big characters written on the card with a big brush: the first team.

How embarrassing and embarrassing it is.

It wasn't his name, really.

"Teacher, teacher! Here, here!" They kept waving and shouting as if they were afraid that he would lose sight of themselves, looking like a group of live monkeys.

Song Shiyu led his younger brother and walked over with a straight face, looking particularly dazzling among a large group of older and younger children.

why?Because he is a teacher, when everyone saw him, they raised their heads and raised their chests unconsciously, following with their eyes. The center of the team must be him.

By the way, he is still pretty.

Song Shiyu looked at the signs they held up high, and rolled his eyes silently.

Since it is a team competition, this group must have a name. The advance team, the first team, and the courageous team think nothing new, and the Eagles, Lions, and Tigers think they are not human, and then they thought of something old-fashioned The Chengfeng Team, Xiafei Team, and Zijin Team were also talking about their mother-in-law, and they almost quarreled over such a name, and none of them were satisfied with the name.In the end, I don't know who said that we should call the first team, anyway, we want to take the first place!

Unexpectedly, this group of people agreed. Song Shiyu didn't know what to say, and it was too late to stop him. He said the name and they came up with it. He didn't care...

But what kind of name is this!

Looking at their names, which one is not better than the first team?

Seeing them bluffing and holding such a name now, I have mixed feelings, and I want to say that I don’t know them...

But he still has to be cheeky, and he has to bear the blame.

"Heh, the first team, what is the first team?" asked the younger student in the next team, covering his mouth.

"We just want to win the first big character team!" A small boy in the calligraphy class said brazenly, and he was very proud.

"Number one? Hehe." It's true that your face is bigger than a basin.

"It's number one!" the little brat coaxed.

People don't want to talk to them, what good face do you expect them to have in relation to competitors?Even those who had a good face were lost by this brazen bravado.

"How about it, you're afraid." The kid even boasted.

"Let's wait and see!" People don't admit it, okay?

"Humph!"

This is not even better, but the hatred value has been raised first.

Song Shiyu didn't care about the small friction between Shangguan and the others, gathered them together, counted them, and then started the individual competition.

Last year was still the standard, but there were too many participants, and there was nothing to say if everyone wrote their own.Song Shiyu finished his work in one go and stamped it with the Huangshi seal given by Gu Weifeng.

"Little classmate, your chapter is really good. It's Tian Huangshi." An old man next to him said with a smile.

"The old man has good eyesight." Song Shiyu smiled, and gave the chapter to the salivating old man to take a closer look.

The more the old man looked at it, the more he liked it, "Yellow with red, this is golden yellow, and the carver is also from a veteran, good chapter, good chapter." He praised repeatedly, but finally he couldn't bear to let it go, "The old man has been writing for so many years. , there is not a good chapter, how much money can be transferred to the old man?"

Song Xiaosan shook his head, "No, my friend gave it to me, I can't let it go."

The old man returned it to him with a sigh. He didn't even bother to add to the game, so he packed up his pen and ink and left.

Song Shiyu put away the seal dearly, he likes this seal, how could it be possible to let people?

Speaking of the Huangshi seal, there is still a small twist. Gu Weifeng doesn’t know where he heard that everyone who writes calligraphy generally has at least one seal. It’s not a random stuff carved from radish, but a good seal carved from good jade, which is very advanced. kind of.After he heard it, he took it to heart, and after a long time, he bought a few different stones to offer treasures in front of him, but only this piece of Tianhuang caught his eyes, and it was very fun to hold it in his hand. It took a while before Gu Weifeng took it to the provincial capital to find someone to engrave it.He originally wanted a square seal, but the engraver did not know what kind of artist's temper he had committed, so he just made it into an irregular oval shape, which made Gu Weifeng so angry that he wanted to beat someone up.

But I didn't expect that this chapter was written crookedly and it fit Song Shiyu's eyes, and he was happier than when he got the stone, which made Gu Weifeng feel better.

Lifting the seal, a slightly unrounded elliptical imprint appeared in the lower right corner, inside which were the words Song Shiyu, and the words were not in a proper font, with curly edges, which had a playful and cute meaning.

Song Shiyu glanced over with big eyes, and nodded with satisfaction in his heart. His handwriting has improved again, very good.

After everyone has handed in their works, the team competition will begin immediately.Team competitions are completely different from individual competitions. There are no restrictions on style, number of words, length, number of people, and time. All you have to do is submit your work within the specified time.

At the beginning, the scene was still chaotic, and a large group of people ran around like headless chickens.It was the first time for everyone to participate in such a group activity, and it was also the first time for the organizer to hold it. No one had any experience, and it took a long time to mess up just moving tables and stools.No one cares about how to play around, and the scene almost broke out because both teams chose the same position.

At this time, Song Shiyu's "first team" who was in an orderly manner seemed to be particularly comfortable, because they had all done rehearsals.

Is not very prescient?These are all the results of Song Shiyu's careful consideration, and of course, it is also the collective strength to check for omissions and fill in the gaps.Because the team competition does not limit the number of words and length, in order to let everyone play their best, they designed a super-long scroll, three meters long and half a meter wide, and the articles they wrote were Mao Weiren's famous "Qin Garden" "Spring Snow", Song Shiyu personally likes this poem very much, it is majestic and has a unique weight.

There must not be such a long piece of paper on site, and several copies have to be connected. Wouldn't it be ugly if it was connected?It doesn't matter, they specially asked someone to go to the provincial capital to buy a whole piece of paper, which is [-] meters [-] long.They had inquired a long time ago that they could bring their own paper for the team competition.

This group put several tables together, and then spread a layer of felt to prevent the table from being uneven, and then laid out long paper rolls, pressed both sides of the paperweight, and there were more than [-] people who rubbed ink and wrote. Methodical and continuous, compared to other people who are amateurs.

But are they professional?They are also amateurs, and some have not practiced calligraphy for three months!But the posture is definitely much more professional than those of their teams.

The so-called layman watches the excitement and the insider watches the way, but even laymen like it after watching it.

After the venue was finally smoothed out, the other teams began to create, and Song Shiyu and the others had written more than half of it.If someone can observe them closely, they will be amazed by their division of labor.Not all of them are writing, nor are they all waiting in line. They perform their duties, but they are all quietly excited while waiting.Looking at their writing again, no one was ignored, even those who had only learned it for two months did not have time to look at it, and his strokes were also on the entire page.

Song Shiyu only mentioned the name of the article and was responsible for the final signing of the entire work. As long as the players wrote on it, they would sign their names on the far right at the end. Finally, Song Shiyu signed the name of the first team and then stamped it own seal.

Including him, a total of 21 people, none left behind.

After finishing writing and letting it air dry for a while, they covered the work with paper, and no one saw what was written inside.

"Yo, what are you doing with the cover?" The team next to me wanted to look at it after finishing their own part, but only saw a big white paper.

"Secret it."

"There's nothing to keep it secret, no one can take it from you."

"That's different, it's our secret weapon." The young man couldn't help showing off, "Ours is different from yours."

The man smiled indifferently, what could be different, isn't it just writing a long scroll?As far as their dolls, big and small, can be, it's not too bad to mess around.

Of course, except for their teachers.

When the time is up, regardless of whether you have finished writing or not, you will hand in the papers, no, hand in the works.

This time, after the competition in the morning, the results were judged in the afternoon. Song Shiyu and the others all went home and had a meal and gathered in the square in the afternoon.

The square at this time was different from that in the morning. All the works were hung in mid-air, divided into two pieces, individual and collective.In fact, there are three rows of top, middle and bottom, front and back, two to three hundred works are all here, so you can see for yourself.

Among them, the most conspicuous ones were not Song Shiyu's personal works, but the scrolls of their first team.

Not to mention the length, there is another Yanhui team that is also a long scroll, which is about the same length as theirs, but looking at others, it is quite different.

Each of them is serious and full of words, and their level seems to be about the same. The overall look is neat and tidy. Although it can't be called a strong character, it is considered a good cooperation.

But another...

"Man, this is really interesting."

"Who came up with it, the first team?"

"Look, it looks like it was drawn by a child, so it looks pretty good no matter what?" A person pointed to a small line in the middle of the writing.

"No, look at this, it seems that there is no ink here and squeeze it up, and it is quite comfortable."

"Interesting, like painting."

Regardless of whether you know how to do it or not, anyway, the comments are full of excitement.

The most commented is their first team.why?Interesting.Think about it, it’s not long since I’ve had enough to eat, how many people really know calligraphy?Everyone still wants to watch the fun.But how much fun can a word have to read?Most people can't tell whether you have been practicing for three years or ten years, but they can tell if they are interesting.Song Shiyu took advantage of everyone's temperament to watch the excitement, and specially designed this work with the team members.

He didn't use the average score or let the poorly written ones not appear, but cleverly divided the words into several paragraphs, with big and small, high and low, thick ink and light dyeing, written with pen, and paragraphs. There is a finger dipped in ink, um, this is the handwriting of a young student who has just learned to write and can't write well.On the whole, it is patchwork, not to mention the quality of the writing, the beauty alone is not interesting.

Those who watch the excitement should look at the team's works, and those who are knowledgeable should appreciate individual masterpieces.Song Shiyu's handwriting was even better than last year's. Several calligraphy masters from the provincial capital all appreciated it, but it's hard to know whether it's true or false.

When people have seen enough and the most lively moment arrives, rate the work.

Individual works were judged by professional calligraphy masters, and audience votes were added to group works, which stunned the audience.Can they still be judges?
