This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

Chapter 418 416. The inhuman Wang Cheng! Shall I ask the question?

Han Lei was stunned for a while, not knowing what to do...

 Is it showing off one's embarrassment?

 Still don’t show off your ugliness?

While Wang Hongyi and Liang Xiaoliang were stunned, they were also secretly glad in their hearts. They were glad that Wang Cheng had not been so vicious to them just now, otherwise they might have cried on the spot at such a young age.

 Zhang Guobin in the audience also twitched the corner of his mouth and whispered: "Why does Wang Cheng speak so venomously? This makes it impossible for Lao Han to get off the stage."

Li Qing smiled bitterly and said: "No one will be able to get off the stage! However, Lao Han should be fine. He will be patient and pass..."

 After all, the strength is not as good as others, but it doesn’t mean that no one can come down.

 Qin Yuhai from behind said a little strangely: "Wang Cheng rarely is so sarcastic."

Shen Shenghui whispered thoughtfully: "Maybe it's the character. The prince he plays may be a bit dandy and arrogant, so he said this. If it is Wang Cheng's own character, , he is also arrogant, but he is too lazy to pay attention to other people..."

Okay, Qin Yuhai reluctantly accepted it and glanced at Shen Shenghui in surprise, feeling that Shen Shenghui knew Wang Cheng very deeply.

 There is a slight difference between being arrogant and being arrogant.

Wang Cheng acted as a arrogant person at this time. He relied on his talent and status, and thus looked down on others who were not as good as him.

 And he is so arrogant that he doesn't even bother to look at other people, no matter who they are.

After Han Lei was embarrassed for a few seconds on the stage, he still suppressed his embarrassment and smiled bitterly, and then said: "Sir, you are really quick to talk, so I will show off my embarrassment."

After laughing at himself, Han Lei eased his embarrassment, stepped forward to the desk, picked up a brush and started writing quickly. As a professor of the Chinese Department, he was naturally not too bad at calligraphy, but his talent was limited, and he was just entering the room. The level of calligraphy is almost the same as the calligraphy level of Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang and other talented people in front of me!

This is actually the current situation of most calligraphers. After practicing to a proficient level, the difficulty of progress becomes exponentially higher. Achievements cannot be achieved simply by practicing more. The most important thing is to have enough talent and Comprehension, otherwise there would not be only a few famous calligraphers throughout the ages.

 How many scholars have studied and practiced diligently for thousands of years in ancient times?

 Like a crucian carp crossing a river.

However, there are only two hands of great calligraphers who can leave their name in history. This shows how difficult it is to achieve great achievements in the field of calligraphy.

 Han Lei is not embarrassed because his calligraphy is at the same level as his students. When he reaches middle age, he has long looked down on it and just focuses on his own writing.

Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang, Luo Xueyi, Xiao Daolin, Ma Wenlong and others quickly put their heads together and looked at the couplets written by Han Lei.

Wen Yixiao and Han Xiao also stretched their snow-white necks slightly and looked towards Han Lei...

Only Wang Cheng was still sitting comfortably on the chair. He did not glance at Han Lei, but looked curiously at Zhu Ziqi, who had been forgotten by everyone. Zhu Ziqi also supported his chin with both hands and leaned on the railing. Looking at Wang Cheng below, she was in a daze, thinking to herself, it would be great if Bi Wen's marriage proposal was true, and she would marry Wang Cheng directly, then her life would be complete, and she would die immediately after the wedding, and she would have no regrets!

Thinking of the bridal chamber, Zhu Ziqi's face turned red. She happened to see Wang Cheng looking at her, and she immediately averted his eyes shyly.

The host stood on it and read directly: "One mouthful can swallow water from two thousand three rivers, four seas and five lakes."

 Everyone heard it clearly.

Wang Cheng also looked away from Zhu Ziqi. When he heard the first couplet read by the host, he glanced at Han Lei with slight curiosity. Unexpectedly, Professor Han actually came up with a riddle in the first couplet.

Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang and other people who are good at couplets also immediately saw the mystery of this first couplet. On the surface, it is a number couplet, with five numbers such as one, two, three, four and five, but it is also a mystery. You must first guess Get the answer, and then write a neat number couplet based on the answer, and it also has to be a riddle!

It can be said that the difficulty of this couplet is one level more difficult than the first couplet produced by Wang Hongyi and Liang Xiaoliang just now.

 Even if they want to confront each other, it will take a long time...

Zhang Guobin in the audience said in a low voice: "Professor Han has indeed done a lot of research on the first couplet. This riddle couplet is difficult for ordinary people to solve. I heard that last time he published a first couplet in the couplet club in Beijing. It took more than a month for the couplet club members from the two schools, Yama and Mizuki, to get to know each other."

Li Qing smiled and said: "Yes, Wang Hongyi was the one who faced off first, and then Liang Xiaoliang also faced off! Now let's see how Wang Cheng responds. I haven't figured out the answer to this mystery yet."

 Many big shots in the Beijing circle and people in the literary world in the audience looked at the first couplet and started talking in low voices.

 Pairs of eyes also looked at Wang Cheng curiously...

They also want to see, how should Wang Cheng respond at this time?

Snapped!

There was a crisp sound, and Wang Cheng tapped the folding fan in his hand hard, and said with a smile: "Not bad, riddle couplet. Xiao Han, write it!"

Wang Cheng’s words shocked everyone slightly, with surprise in their eyes—Has he thought about it again?

Liang Xiaoliang, Wang Hongyi, Luo Xueyi, Xiao Daolin and other players are still thinking about the answer to the mystery, and have no clue about the second line...

 Wang Cheng came up with the answer in one second again.

This time, the gap is too big.

In the lantern riddles and couplets just now, they were only a few seconds behind Wang Cheng. They could see the gap, but they always felt that they could catch up.

 Now, for such riddles that require multiple thoughts, Wang Cheng can still answer them in one second.

 Hardly thinking!

 Let everyone at the scene be silent for a while, just looking at Wang Cheng.

Han Xiao also immediately picked up the brush and dipped it in ink, getting the pen ready.

Wang Cheng leaned on his chair and said relaxedly: "How dare you enter the homes of people from all over the world!"

Han Xiao didn't hesitate at all. Hearing Wang Cheng's voice, he wrote the second line of the second line, which attracted everyone's attention and looked at the second line.

Wang Hongyi and Liang Xiaoliang saw Wang Cheng's second line, their eyes lit up, and they blurted out almost at the same time: "Thermos bottle!"

 The people around Luo Xueyi, Xiao Daolin, Guan Hanliang, Ma Wenlong and others were suddenly stunned after hearing this. This is the answer to the mystery.

The topic of the upper and lower couplets, as well as the riddle, are not difficult for them, but the difficulty is that the time is too short and the design is exquisite.

 Give them a few days and they will definitely be able to answer it.

 But compared with Wang Cheng’s answer in one second, it is incomparable.

Luo Xueyi and others looked at Wang Cheng, and there was no longer any thought of fighting in their hearts.

Han Lei cupped his fist lightly at Wang Cheng: "I really admire you for your great talent. However, there is one more link..."

Wang Cheng smiled and said lightly: "Then continue to show off your ugliness!"

 Poof!

Some people in the audience couldn't help laughing in a low voice, and then hurriedly covered their mouths. Everyone else had weird expressions after hearing Wang Cheng's words. Some people also wanted to laugh, but they could only hold it in. More uncomfortable.

 After all, this is the home court of Beijing University and Mizuki, who dares to laugh?

Zhang Guobin and other leaders of the two schools all looked slightly ugly, but they did not dare to look too ugly, as it would be too obvious, and they had to pretend to be normal.

 Wen Yixiao and Han Xiao, who were beside Wang Cheng, both had tense and serious faces. They almost couldn't hold back their laughter just now.

Opposite Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang, Luo Xueyi and others also wanted to laugh but felt uncomfortable. They stared at Wang Cheng with their eyes, daring to be angry but afraid to speak.

Han Lei, the client, took two deep breaths to keep his emotions calm, and still clasped his fists and said to Wang Cheng: "Sir, if you are quick to talk, I will continue to show my embarrassment!"

 After saying that, Han Lei stopped talking nonsense and just wanted to finish the program as soon as possible, so he quickly went back to school and would never participate in such a program again or face Wang Cheng again.

 This is not a human job.

However, Han Lei was still quite magnanimous at this time. He picked up the writing brush, still had the demeanor of a famous school professor, and quickly wrote a first couplet.

 Everyone looked at the couplet again, but no one said anything.

 Only the voice of the host came, reading the first couplet for everyone to hear.

“Black is not black, white is not, red and yellow are not, they are similar to foxes, wolves, cats and dogs, they are neither domestic animals nor wild beasts.”

As soon as I finished reading this couplet, many people at the scene looked confused and confused. What is it about?     This is not, that is not, this is similar, neither, nor...

 So, what is it?

obviously…

Those who know a little bit about couplets will recognize that this is another riddle couplet.

 The first thing to do is not to think about the second line, but to guess the answer to the riddle, and then think about the second line based on the answer. Otherwise, even if you think of a neat second line based on the literal meaning, it will be wrong!

 This is the text, the surface is different from the inside.

A trace of pride flashed in Han Lei's eyes. He had originally planned to use this couplet at the next joint activity of the couplet clubs of Shuimu Jingda University to embarrass Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang and others, but now he had to first I took it out and showed it to Wang Cheng to see if it could stump Wang Cheng.

 So far, he has not thought of a neat second line, but only accidentally thought of the first line.

He looked at Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang and other students, whose faces were full of hard thinking. Then he looked at Wang Cheng opposite, and saw that Wang Cheng was still sitting there relaxedly, looking at him, without any trace of hard thinking in his eyes. Suddenly he was shocked. Could it be that Wang Cheng had figured it out again?

 The next second.

As expected, Wang Cheng’s voice came: “Write!”

Han Xiao and Wen Yixiao were also thinking about it, but upon hearing Wang Cheng's voice, Han Xiao instinctively picked up the pen and prepared to write. Wen Yixiao also immediately polished the ink to provide Han Xiao with ink. A trace of surprise flashed in their eyes.

They didn’t even have a clue about such a difficult mystery. Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang and others on the opposite side were also thinking hard. Wang Cheng still had the answer in one second?

Are you sure this wasn't prepared by the program team in advance?

 Qin Shangran, Li Cheng, and Yang Yi in the background were also a little surprised and looked at each other.

Li Cheng said in a low voice: "Director Yang, Professor Han has never communicated with us about these topics, has he?"

Yang Yi said firmly: "No!"

 Qin Shangran and Li Cheng nodded at the same time, once again having a new understanding of Wang Cheng's quick thinking.

 It seems that no matter how difficult the question is, Wang Cheng can answer it in one second!

Wang Cheng is like a robot. He has the correct answers to all the questions in his mind. He can automatically retrieve the corresponding correct answers the moment he sees the questions...

  Simply put, Wang Cheng is simply not a human being.

 The next second.

They all heard Wang Cheng's calm and lazy voice: "There are also poems, lyrics, and the Analects of Confucius. It's all vague about the east, west, and west. Although it's a sketch, it's also a wonderful article!"

Snapped!

The last crisp sound of banging the fan ends.

Han Xiao also finished writing quickly, and looked at the second couplet with Wen Yixiao, but still had no clue. Just looking at the text, it seemed to match Han Lei's first couplet, which was extremely neat.

But…

What is the answer to Han Lei’s first couplet?

 What is the answer to Wang Cheng’s second line?

 Neither of them knew.

 The teachers and students of the two famous schools opposite, except Han Lei, have some clues, because he knows the answer to his own riddle, so he can guess Wang Cheng's answer based on his own answer.

Wang Hongyi and Liang Xiaoliang had some ideas, but they still couldn't guess any of the two answers to the riddle. However, with Wang Cheng's second line, they already had some ideas. For them, if they had the ideas, they would be able to figure it out quickly. Come out, so the pretty face is no longer bitter, only thoughtful.

As for Chen Yuqi, Luo Xueyi and others, they still look like they are thinking hard for the time being. They have no clue and can only make random guesses.

Many spectators in the audience were also thinking hard, trying to guess, and then yelled to steal the spotlight...

 Being featured in this kind of showdown of top talents will definitely make you stand out!

pity…

Han Lei thought for a few seconds and suddenly said to Wang Cheng: "The answer is the riddle, the riddle of the answer, the riddle of the riddle, right?"

Wang Cheng nodded lightly: "Not bad!"

Wang Hongyi and Liang Xiaoliang’s eyes flashed at the same time, both thinking of the mysterious answer to the upper and lower couplets.

Wang Hongyi said quickly: "Professor Han's answer to the first couplet is a guess from a riddle, and Wang Cheng's second couplet uses a riddle from a riddle as the answer!"

Liang Xiaoliang nodded vigorously and thought of it, but did not say it out loud. She just looked at Wang Cheng with admiration.

 Such an exquisite second line, thought up in such a short time, is definitely like a god.

Liang Xiaoliang couldn't help but said: "Wang Cheng, you are really amazing!"

Han Lei, Wang Hongyi, Chen Yuqi and others were all speechless after hearing this.

Wang Cheng's performance was indeed beyond their understanding.

 Let alone contemporary times, even among the many literati and poets throughout history, there is no such powerful person.

Han Lei smiled bitterly, picked up and put down, and clasped his fists at Wang Cheng and said: "Mr. Wang Cheng is right, I am indeed showing off my shame. However, I am obsessed with couplets. I don't know how high the sky is, so I would like to ask you to give me a question." Give it a try!”

Han Lei’s words put himself in a very low position.

However, his words also cheered up everyone including Wang Hongyi and Liang Xiaoliang.

Would you please ask Wang Cheng to give a question?

 Lu Zhen, Jia Qian, Xuezi and others in the audience all looked strange.

The last time they were in the Magic City, Wang Cheng made a first couplet and they surrendered directly.

They took turns to ask questions. Wang Cheng answered the questions in one second, but Wang Cheng only asked one question. A lonely widow in the first couplet, they surrendered collectively on the spot!

This allowed them to escape from the Demon City almost overnight.

At this time, looking at Han Lei on the stage, he took the initiative to ask Wang Cheng to give a question. They wanted to say - you really don't know the heights of the sky.

Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang and other people who like to study couplets are looking forward to it, even though they know that the first couplet produced by Wang Cheng is definitely extremely difficult, just like the last time I was a lonely widow in a cold window.

 However, they still like such challenging topics.

 Because, only by studying difficult problems can we improve them.

Just like the last time they studied and came up with the second couplet of "Lonely, Cold, Empty and Widow", their understanding of the couplets has improved a bit.

So, can Wang Cheng still come up with such a difficult couplet?

Wang Cheng looked at Han Lei, Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang and others. He was still tapping the folding fan gently. The lazy smile on his face seemed to never change. It seemed that nothing could make him feel bad. He lightly He said: "Well, just to avoid anyone bothering me with the couplets in the future."

“Then I will write two first couplets. If these two first couplets do not match, then no one is qualified to mention couplets with me.”

Wang Cheng’s words instantly made the scene extremely silent again.

 Pairs of eyes stared at Wang Cheng with excitement...

 Listen to what Wang Cheng means.

The couplets he wrote must be extraordinary?

 No one can match up?

Han Lei, Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang and other people who like to study couplets are also excited. Their excitement is a kind of excitement that makes people happy.

 They just like challenging difficult questions.

  As long as it is a couplet combination composed of Chinese characters.

 They believe that there is absolutely a pattern. Since there is a pattern, it must be replicated, but the difficulty is different.

No matter how difficult Wang Cheng’s first couplet is, they are absolutely confident that as long as they are given enough time, they can definitely come up with a suitable second couplet!

Wang Cheng’s calm voice came: “Write!”
