The strongest brain in entertainment

Chapter 116 Speech and Special Enrollment
On April 4th, the auditorium of No. 15 Middle School was full of thousands of students, and Xiaoxiao's speech began.

As a friend, Li Fan should listen to other people's lectures, but the time to play mahjong last night was too late, and he was the kind of person who couldn't stay up late by nature, so he fell asleep uncontrollably, and slept soundly.

Xiaoxiao strolled on the stage, talking about the development history of modern poetry and the great influence of European culture on Chinese poetry. His literary talent and profound knowledge attracted the admiration of many students.

Xiaoxiao's speeches have always been rambling, without scripts at all, but the whole speech is very logical, and it is carried out around several centers.

Xiaoxiao: "A friend of mine said that poets are divided into three categories. The third-rate poets make up rhetoric, the second-rate poets seek artistic conception, and the first-rate poets pursue their original heart. I asked him what is this 'original heart'? Or philosophizing? Then he said: 'Guess!'”

There was laughter at the scene.

"But I don't want to guess today, I still hope my friend can explain it to me."

Everyone looked at the school leaders and guests on the rostrum, not knowing who they were.

Xiaoxiao glanced at the group of students in the audience, saw Li Fan sleeping soundly on the table, sighed and said, "Forget it, my friend thought my speech was too boring and fell asleep."

Fell asleep?Niu Benben suddenly realized, didn't this mean Li Fan? Just as he was about to wake up Li Fan, Xiaoxiao on the stage said: "Don't wake him up, he is probably asking us for money in a dream!"

Xiaoxiao continued: "When he woke up, he told him that sometimes playing mahjong and counting cards is really annoying, and even analyzing the game. Such a person is likely to have no female poker friends."

The scene laughed again.

"I have been thinking about a question, what should modern poetry borrow from and discard from classical poetry. Today we will talk about a classic ancient poem that all the students here have memorized by heart - "Jinse". Before "Jinse", let's look at a painting by Gao Na - "Gernidan"!"

On the big screen, "Gernidan", which is of great significance in the history of oil painting, was displayed.

……

Xiaoxiao's speech ended perfectly amidst applause, and Li Fan also took advantage of the nearly two hours to catch up on a good night's sleep.

Xiaoxiao signed autographs for some classmates on the podium, while Li Fan was picked up by Niu Benben. Niu Benben said, "Dude, you slept so soundly, and you are so happy. How much did you win last night?"

Li Fan rubbed his eyes, "Don't mention it, they are cheating."

"Go, get me an autograph!" Niu Benben handed the three books to Li Fan.

Li Fan woke up instantly, with a question mark on his face: "You started reading poetry? Why are you paying back three books?"

"Don't overestimate me, save it for picking up girls later, save it first." Niu Benben raised his eyebrows.

Li Fan shook his head: "When did you go to the bookstore to buy it? I saw that you have been hurting literary and artistic young women for a long time. It is normal to pick up girls. You can just send a bag and buy clothes."

Li Fan took three books with him, and waited until the students gradually dispersed, then accompanied Xiaoxiao to lunch with Teacher Xiaoling and the school leaders, and then Xiaoxiao flew away with her luggage.

……

Time flies, time flies, as if a fleeting moment, two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

During the past two months, Li Fan received reminder calls from Sun Long almost every five or six days, asking if he could join the "Huaguo Poetry Conference".

Especially in the past few days, Sun Long must call every day, which annoys Li Fan, and his brain hurts.

All the competition rules, list of contestants and background information of "Huaguo Poetry Conference" were sent to Li Fan. Li Fan really thought it was pretty good. To be honest, he wanted to participate. It is his own responsibility to make friends with literature and promote Chinese studies. Moreover, there are generous bonuses!

In fact, Li Fan is confident in convincing his parents that although they are traditional, they still respect their ideas.However, the most helpless thing is that the "Boya Cup" held by Peking University will also be held in July.

"Boya Cup" is an important shortcut for every student who aspires to go to Peking University.Although the "Boya Cup" held by Beijing University is not set for special enrollment, the outstanding players in the "Boya Cup" will be given special attention by the admissions office, which has a strong bonus effect on special enrollment.

Among other things, since the "Boya Cup" was held for ten years, all the champions have finally become the special admissions of Peking University, and almost none of the top three have been missed.

And the most important point is the particularity and rarity of "Boya Cup".Participating in the Boya Cup once can benefit people for a lifetime.I can't mess up "Boya Cup" just because I participated in a variety show.

The time for each link of the "Boya Cup" has not yet been announced, and Li Fan has no way of agreeing to the invitation of the "Huaguo Poetry Conference".

On this day, Li Fan received a call from Sun Long again.

Over there, "Give brother a letter of approval, can you participate? The program team is waiting for the letter!"

Li Fan: "Brother Long, I'm going to participate in "Boya Cup" soon, I really don't have time!"

""Boya Cup", you also signed up for "Boya Cup"? Gu Yating also signed up, hey, oh my god!"

"When the specific time for each link of "Boya Cup" comes down, if it does not conflict with the recording of our poetry conference, I will participate."

"When's the down time?"

How would Li Fan know? He asked Xiaoxiao about it. There are many summer activities at Peking University this year, and the specific time for "Boya Cup" hasn't been finalized yet.

Sun Long was very depressed. Gu Yating had made it clear that she would not participate because her summer vacation schedule was too full. In addition to the Boya Cup, she also had to volunteer at the opening ceremony of the Asian Economic Forum. Among them was a well-known international high school. She turned down all the summer camps.

He finally locked his eyes on Li Fan, but it turned out that Li Fan couldn't call it right. There was no way, "Boya Cup" was too important to high school students.

Sun Long couldn't force it this time.

Fortunately, "Huaguo Poetry Conference" adopts a group point system, which is divided into several groups to compete in batches, and finally a ring competition. In this way, Li Fan does not have to participate in the early recording, and can participate at any time.

Two days later, the registration for "Boya Cup" started.

Registration is very simple, you need a recommendation letter from the principal of the school, it would be even better if you have a recommendation letter from a cultural scholar, and then attach a paper or an original article that you think is wonderful, and send it to Capital University.

There is no need to mention the letter of recommendation from the principal. As for the letter of recommendation from a cultural scholar, Xiaoxiao teaches at Beijing University, so to avoid suspicion, Mr. Xiao is determined to get Li Fan into Giessen University. Yong readily agreed, and asked if it was necessary to invite some cultural scholars to write more articles. Li Fan quickly thanked him, it was really unnecessary.

On Sunday, he came to Cai Yong's house carrying fruits. After reading Cai Yong's recommendation letter, he blushed and said, "Teacher Cai, can you help me rewrite another one?"

"Oh, what's wrong?"

"This," Li Fan scratched his head looking at the words and sentences (scholarly, talented, top high school students in the country...), "It's a bit too exaggerated, I'm really not that good, just write This son is still good and the like."

Exaggerated?Cai Yong read the full text, but he wrote it under pressure!
