Reboot the age of gaming

Chapter 223 Calligraphy Competition
The couplets are posted well, and related matters are also arranged, and the holiday is happy.

It’s good to be your own boss. You can take the holiday whenever you want, and you can take it as long as you want. It’s self-willed!
Zhou Sen had pretended to be working before, but in the end he ran faster than anyone else.

Brother Dahui was anxious to go home to take care of the children, so he also left early.

In the end, Zhong Ming and Jiang Wanna were left to deal with the follow-up work, and they were all ready to leave.

Although it is a two-week small holiday, oh, a mid-to-long holiday, there is no need to cut off the power, and there are not so many safety hazards.Turn off all the computers that should be turned off, and just leave.

The two left the company and went to wait for the Airbus.

Jiang Wanna joked: "Zhong Ming, the company has made so much money, why don't you consider buying a speeding car to commute to get off work? It's such a hassle to wait for the bus all the time. If you buy a speeding car, I can use it."

Zhong Ming laughed: "It's not difficult to buy a car, but the hard part is getting a driver's license... Besides, isn't your bonus enough to buy a speeding car? I haven't seen you buy one yet."

Jiang Wanna smiled: "I'm also worried about the driver's license..."

The driver's license in this world is different from the previous life, because you drive a speeding car and fly in the sky. If there is an accident, it will be a serious accident. The driver's license test must be very strict.

Of course, in terms of difficulty, it is definitely not as high as helicopters and airplanes, because flying cars have intelligent systems, and the driver does not need to do those complicated operations all the time.

However, one of the items in the driving license test is emergency handling, that is, when the intelligent system fails or cannot cope with an emergency, it is necessary to use the manual driving mode completely.This time will test the driver's driving skills.It is also difficult to get a driver's license.

Zhong Ming wanted to buy a car, but the premise was that he could pass the driver's license test.

So, let's practice on the driving simulator first, and then think about buying a real car...

On the air bus, the two chatted one after another.

"Thinking about it now, the past six months have passed so quickly, in the blink of an eye." Jiang Wanna said with emotion, "Half a year ago, you were still a hard-working intern at Guangyi Huyu. In the blink of an eye, you became my boss. Three games have been made.”

Zhong Ming smiled: "Then I have to make some progress. I can't still be an intern after half a year. Besides, what's wrong with me being the boss? Is it interesting to give everyone a two-week vacation?"

"That's right." Jiang Wanna nodded, "Hey, by the way, what are your plans for these two weeks of vacation?"

"I don't have any plans right now," Zhong Ming said.

He really doesn't have any good ideas, he doesn't have any relatives, and he doesn't have many friends at the moment, let alone he is on vacation, and others are still working.

Jiang Wanna said, "How about doing me a favor?"

"What are you busy with?"

"I have a little cousin who is in the fifth grade this year. There will be a World Youth Calligraphy Competition in Guanghua City the day after tomorrow. She has applied for the junior group. If you have time, why not help her with tutoring? After all, you are so good at calligraphy." Jiang Wanna Said.

Zhong Ming was stunned for a moment: "Wait a minute, when?"

Jiang Wanna: "If you're okay, let's go to Guanghua City together tomorrow."

"No, I mean, when is the calligraphy competition?"

"The day after tomorrow."

Zhong Ming was a little dumbfounded: "The competition is coming up the day after tomorrow. How can you expect me to teach you in just two days? It's not like that. Calligraphy needs a long time of practice, and it's impossible to improve it in a day or two. of."

Jiang Wanna waved her hand: "It's okay, just look at her current problems, and then just give me some pointers. I have to go to work before, so I don't have time to tutor her. Besides, it would be too much for you to tutor her from beginning to end." sorry to bother you."

"Okay, then I'll give him a few words when the time comes, I hope it will help."

"Then, I'll hurry up and book the tickets. Tomorrow we'll go to the airport together and fly to Guanghua City. I told my aunt to take my cousin there early and settle down there with a pen, ink, paper and inkstone to get familiar with the familiar environment. By the way, Guanghua City for two days." Jiang Wanna opened the bracelet and began to look at the ticket.

The air tickets in this world are similar to the high-speed rail tickets in the previous life, and it is not the peak travel season, so it is not difficult to buy.

Zhong Mingyile, Jiang Wanna, this little cousin is quite formal. It seems that the family should also take it seriously. To participate in a calligraphy competition, I have to wait here two days in advance, and I have to familiarize myself with the environment. I feel that many people are not like this in the college entrance examination. nervous.

……

the next day.

Guanghua City.

When the plane bell rang, I felt a little emotional. In the past two months, I have flown to this city three times.

Of course, this is also normal, because the status of Ming'an City and Guanghua City in this world is basically similar to that of the imperial capital and demon capital in the previous life.There are only a few big cities, and there are very few big cities with well-developed cultural industries and well-known universities.

Taking Guanghua City as an example, it is precisely because it is a cultural core city in the Chinese cultural circle and has top universities such as Guanghua Art Institute that it can hold so many cultural activities.

Just before the GGAC Global Game Art Concept Competition was held, and the World Youth Calligraphy Competition was held later, the sense of existence exploded.

Leaving the airport, the two took a taxi to the hotel.

According to Jiang Wanna, her little cousin likes calligraphy quite a bit, and her family is also very supportive. She came here two days in advance to adapt to the environment. She was afraid that the time would be too short and the fatigue of the journey would affect her state.

When they arrived at the hotel, Jiang Wanna and Zhong Ming also checked in and each had a room.

After putting down her luggage, Jiang Wanna took Zhong Ming to her little cousin's room.

"That should be it."

Jiang Wanna confirmed the room number and knocked lightly on the door.

"Hey, here we come."

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman, probably Jiang Wanna's aunt, smiling all over her face: "Hey, Nana, you're here, this is your boss? Oh, but you're so young, if you don't know it, you might think it's your partner. "

Jiang Wanna was a little embarrassed: "Guy, don't talk nonsense, you'll make me deduct my wages later, and I'll never end with you."

"Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense, come in quickly."

When Zhong Ming and Jiang Wanna entered the room, they saw a ten-year-old girl seriously writing calligraphy on the hotel table.

Pen, ink, paper and inkstone are all available, and it is quite formal.

Zhong Ming looked at it from afar, not to mention, Jiang Wanna, this little cousin, has pretty good skills.

The writing is ordinary italic characters, but the rules are neat, the strokes are straight, and the writing is quite beautiful.

Jiang Wanna waited for the little cousin to finish writing this sentence, and then introduced: "Yiyi, I invited a calligrapher to come over for you, if you don't understand anything, ask quickly, after this village, there is no such shop."

Yiyi raised her head and looked at Zhong Ming: "He is the only one? He is so young, how can he look like a master?"

Aunt Jiang's face turned dark when she heard it: "How can you talk like a brat!"

Jiang Wanna was also very speechless, and said to Zhong Ming: "My younger sister has this problem, she speaks out loud, even her father dares to sarcasm at home, don't mind."

Zhong Ming silently wiped the cold sweat off his brow. Damn, he seemed to have overestimated his resistance to brats.

The name is pretty good, it's called Yiyi, but it doesn't match her personality at all!

Yiyi was scolded by the two elders, and said very reluctantly: "That's fine, then master, please tell me."

Zhong Ming looked at the handwriting she wrote.

"Do you ever feel that writing a single word looks good, but writing a paragraph makes it ugly?"

Yiyi froze for a moment: "Yes."

Zhong Ming pointed to her handwriting: "Your handwriting and structure have basically passed the test, so there is no problem if you can write a single word well. But if you write a poem or an article that is not good-looking, it means that you have not solved the problem of composition." , the structure doesn’t work.”

"In fact, the structure is the relationship between characters. This kind of collocation includes distance, height, size, length, density, retraction, etc. When you write a copybook, you have to work hard to observe, understand and grasp it. Matching relationship..."

Yiyi listened carefully and nodded frequently.

Aunt Jiang whispered to Jiang Wanna: "Okay, Xiao Zhong has a way, I don't think Yiyi is really serious about listening to her teacher's lecture."

Jiang Wanna said: "Actually, Yiyi doesn't look down on people, she's just very proud and respects those who have real talents."

After speaking for half an hour, Zhong Ming felt a little tired.

It wasn't just a lecture, Zhong Ming also wrote casually on the paper during the period to make it easier for Yiyi to understand.

"Okay, let's do this first. In the past two days, you should practice the structure according to the copybook."

Yiyi hasn't heard enough: "Don't, brother, tell me more, I haven't heard enough."

"Hey, your attitude is better now, do you know you're called brother?" Zhong Ming said angrily, "I'll take a break first, you practice, I'm here to talk, you don't have a chance to practice and it's hard to understand. You give me Write down the few words you picked, and I will make mistakes for you later."

Zhong Ming stood up from his seat, and Jiang Wanna handed him an apple.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Zhong Ming took the apple and said, "Hey, it's not hard. Yiyi's talent is pretty good. But then again...why did you think of learning calligraphy?"

Zhong Ming was really puzzled, because in this world, Chinese traditional calligraphy is already a relatively small art form. The average family likes to send their children to learn painting and music. There are many other art forms that can be chosen. Not much anymore.

Jiang Wanna said: "Yiyi was too skinny when she was a child, so I want her to learn calligraphy to grind her temper."

Zhong Ming looked at Yiyi who was writing over there: "...It seems that the grinding is not very successful."

Jiang Wanna smiled: "It's already very successful, you haven't seen her before."

Zhong Ming: "..."

Aunt Jiang came over and said, "Nana, I'm going out first. I just came over to have dinner with some old classmates. Yiyi will trouble you to take care of it. I'll be back at night."

Jiang Wanna nodded: "Okay, Auntie, you can go."

After sending Aunt Jiang away, the two of them had nothing to do, so they chatted quietly in the room.

"I feel that Yiyi also attaches great importance to this calligraphy competition." Zhong Ming said.

Jiang Wanna nodded: "Yes, it is important. After all, this is a global competition, and it seems that there are quite a few Westerners participating. The first prize of the youth group has a big trophy, and it is said that this time the organizer has a mysterious It is said that the exhibits will not be revealed until the day of the competition.”

"Mysterious exhibit?"

Jiang Wanna: "Yes, I don't know what it is, maybe it's just a gimmick. But there are really not many calligraphy competitions of this level, and it is a great affirmation to win this kind of award."

Yiyi was still writing seriously. She brought a thick stack of rice paper in her bag. After writing one sheet after another, the room was filled with the fragrance of ink.

……

game day.

At around seven o'clock in the morning, Zhong Ming sat in the air taxi and yawned wildly.

No way, I really don't have the habit of getting up so early...

Yiyi swiped her wristband to read the copybook, and said contemptuously: "Zhong Ming, look at you, why are you yawning so hard in the morning? If you were in our class, you would have been called up by the teacher to answer questions."

Zhong Ming said with a dark face: "You child, if you are a little familiar, you don't matter if you are not big or small. It doesn't matter if you don't call me brother, why do you still despise me... Even if I go to your class, I will be your teacher." ?"

Yiyi said: "If you are a teacher and you yawn in class, you will be laughed at by your classmates."

Zhong Ming was speechless: "Let me tell you, you are laughing at me now, and when the time comes, you won't get the ranking. Let's see how I laugh at you."

Yiyi was too confident: "If I don't even get the third prize, then you can laugh at me however you want!"

Jiang Wanna couldn't help smiling, it was obvious that Yiyi liked Zhong Ming quite a bit, otherwise she wouldn't have said so much.

The venue of the competition was at the Guanghua City Art Museum. Yiyi entered the arena with her bag and ID on her back, while Zhong Ming and Jiang Wanna watched from the auditorium next to her.

Ticket sales will not be open to the public for this game, but a webcast will be arranged.But for this kind of game, even if it was broadcast live, not many people would watch it.

Therefore, there were not many people at the scene, but after all, there was a youth group, and considering the accompanying family members, an audience seat was arranged at the scene.

In the center of the arena are wooden tables with various necessary items such as pens, inks, papers and inkstones, paperweights, etc. Contestants enter the arena quickly and go to the corresponding positions according to their numbers.

Those who came to the scene must have passed the primary selection, but even so, there were still a lot of people. There were more than 200 people in the juvenile group and the youth group.

Not long after Zhong Ming sat down, he heard someone calling him.

"The bell rings?"

Turning around, isn't this Lao Jin?
Lao Jin was very happy when he saw Zhong Ming: "I caught you again, when will you write the "Preface to Lanting Collection" for me!"

Zhong Ming was speechless: "Why do you just say this when we meet? Can you still have a good time? Are you... your grandson coming to the competition?"

"What and what." Lao Jin was speechless, "I am the judge!"

"Oh, you are quite busy. You were the judge last time, and this time again." Zhong Ming said.

Lao Jin was amused: "You have something in your words. I'm a member of the Calligraphy Association. Isn't it normal for me to be a judge in the calligraphy competition? It's just a coincidence that I was a judge in the game competition. By the way, we Lao Qian, the president of the association, is also here, introducing you two to each other?"

"Don't bother, the game is about to start." Zhong Ming said.

Lao Jin thought about it, and nodded: "Okay, don't leave after the show is over, let's have a meal together, do you hear me?"
