This star doesn’t work overtime

Who else?

An understatement, three words without any emotion.

But it made everyone at the scene slightly shocked, and their eyes widened when they looked at Wang Cheng.

Two words appear in everyone's mind - domineering!

Taro Ika, who had been completely ignored by Wang Cheng, looked pale and his eyes were filled with disappointment.

Lu Zhen, Jia Qian, Nakamura Yuuji, Xuezi and others who Wang Cheng looked at felt a lot of pressure. Several people were slightly absent-minded for a while. Under Wang Cheng's calm eyes and tone, there was a huge pressure like a mountain. .

Even Lu Zhen and Jia Qian, both old friends for many years, were speechless for a moment!

Lu Zhen took a deep breath, trying to get rid of the huge pressure from Wang Cheng and say something to lighten the atmosphere.

Xuezi next to her suddenly stood up and said with a slight blush on her face: "I'll do it!"

Everyone at the scene who was still in a state of shock was once again stunned. They looked at Xuezi who stood up, and then they noticed this outrageously beautiful prince of the island kingdom.

Zheng Wenzhong couldn't help but whisper: "Is this the princess of the island country's royal family? Is she her biological child? For hundreds of generations, the island country's royal family has never produced such a beautiful princess."

Zheng Qian said softly: "I heard that those who have done a paternity test must be of biological blood. There is no doubt about it. Now that she can stand up on her own initiative, I am a little surprised. Wang Cheng's momentum overwhelmed Lu Zhen and Jia Qian. Even though we are speechless, a little girl like Xuezi has the courage to stand up. There is no limit to what this little girl can do in the future."

The middle-aged man in front said: "I heard that this Yukiko is one of the people who has studied the couplets the most in the island country's literary world. He has won the championship in the national couplet competition organized by the royal family! In the couplets, he must be better than Taro Ika. It’s really possible to challenge Wang Cheng.”

After hearing this, several people around were a little worried about Wang Cheng, but then they shook their heads and smiled confidently. Thinking of Wang Cheng's action of writing the second line in less than a second, they had an inexplicable trust in Wang Cheng.

Under the gaze of everyone, Xuezi walked up to the podium from his seat and came to the side of Wang Cheng. He looked curiously up and down at Wang Cheng. Looking at Wang Cheng so close, Xuezi's eyes flashed. Stunning, Wang Cheng's looks and temperament made her feel inferior.

"Xuezi admires your talent, sir, and came here to ask for advice."

Xue Zi said politely.

Wang Cheng glanced at Xuezi indifferently, but still said nothing. He just stretched out his hand gently and made a gesture of invitation, indicating that you can just write and stop talking nonsense.

Of course, it was the first time for Xuezi to meet such a cold and heartless person like Wang Cheng. She took a deep breath to calm herself down and stopped talking immediately. Knowing that speaking with strength was the best way to talk at this time, she immediately walked to the empty seat next to her. , picked up the brush and started writing.

As soon as he picked up the pen, the eyes of all the knowledgeable literary people in the front row lit up.

As the saying goes, an expert will know if something is there as soon as he takes action.

Xuezi's movement of holding the brush reveals a smoothness like flowing water, and a water-like softness that is unique to women. With this in mind, even before the pen is written, everyone knows that Xuezi is good at calligraphy. He definitely has extraordinary attainments.

Zhang Yiheng, Zhang Guobin, Xing Tongshu, Lin Nianxiang, Mr. Han and other big names also stared closely at Prince Xuezi, who was highly praised by the island country's literary circles.

The moment Xuezi's brush fell on the white paper, she waved her wrist steadily. Between each stroke, there was no wind, rain or thunder, only flowing clouds and flowing water, and a trace of courage and perseverance.

"This Xuezi's running script has gone a long way toward becoming a master. He is expected to reach the realm of a master in this life."

Lin Nianxiang commented lightly.

And Lin Bing knew that this was the highest praise Lin Nianxiang had given him so far, besides Wang Cheng.

After all, not everyone is qualified as a calligraphy master.

For example, Lin Bing, the heir who has been trained by Lin Nianxiang for more than ten or twenty years, in Lin Nianxiang's view, it is difficult to reach the master level in this life, and his talent is a little bit behind.

And Xuezi, the talent displayed at this time is enough to touch the realm of calligraphy master.

After hearing Lin Nianxiang's words, Mr. Han nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, her attainments in running script surpass many calligraphers who have studied running script for many years. Her talent is very high! However, in front of Wang Cheng, she is not worth mentioning. mentioned."

These words made Lin Nianxiang and Xing Tongshu smile silently and bitterly.

Compared with Wang Cheng?

Who can compare with Wang Cheng...?

At the age of nineteen, you recognized me as the best calligrapher in the world today!

Who in history can achieve this?

Even Wang Youjun, who is said to be the best running script in China, was in his twenties when he became famous. His age when he wrote the preface to Lanting is not certain, but he was at least in his thirties, or perhaps in his fifties!

He is not like Wang Cheng, who became a master of calligraphy at the age of only nineteen.

Therefore, throughout history, perhaps only Wang Youjun can compare with Wang Cheng in terms of calligraphy talent, and no one else can compare!

All the calligraphers on the scene were tied together, and they were not qualified.

Therefore, compared with Wang Cheng, he is acting like a hooligan.

However, considering the age, it is natural.

Xuezi is only twenty years old and Wang Cheng is nineteen years old. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the same age.

However, Zhang Guobin had something to say and whispered: "There are many people in our country who can compare with Xuezi!"

Zhang Guobin knew that within the Beijing circle, there were no less than three young calligraphers who were as good at calligraphy as Xuezi now, and they were about the same age, only in their twenties.

Not to mention other places, you can find at least two or three, but in the island country, there is only one like Yukiko.

Therefore, in a competition between geniuses, China will definitely win!

Of course, if Wang Cheng is included, then Wang Cheng alone can crush the entire island country.

Suddenly, Zhang Guobin thought of the young people in the Beijing circle and felt sorry for them. If you work so hard, you may be destined to become Wang Cheng's background in the future.

At this time, the host on the podium read out the first couplet written by Xuezi and whispered: "Dense trees, pines, cypresses, sycamores, willows!"

Many people who were talking in the audience immediately shut up and looked at Xuezi on the podium. Looking at the freehand calligraphy written by Xuezi, and listening to what the host read, almost everyone immediately saw it. The mystery therein.

"This first couplet is all related to wood!"

Xing Tongshu said immediately.

Zhang Guobin, Li Qing and others also nodded in agreement.

Then, everyone looked thoughtful and began to think about how to write a neat second line.

At the same time, every pair of eyes immediately looked at Wang Cheng, wanting to see how Wang Cheng responded. Can he still do what he did when he faced Taro Ika just now, writing without thinking?

Xuezi, who had just finished writing, immediately looked at Wang Cheng, and then a trace of surprise appeared on her pretty face.

Everyone else who looked at Wang Cheng was also shocked for a moment, and then felt relieved...

because.

As expected, Wang Cheng glanced at the first couplet written by Xuezi, then picked up the pen and started writing.

Hardly any thought.

Like a robot, after reading the first couplet, it automatically generated the second couplet.

Several big guys in the audience who are well-known for being good at couplets shook their heads and smiled bitterly, with their faces blushing. They felt what real talent and strength are today!

Afterwards, all eyes were fixed on Wang Cheng's brush!

I saw...

As expected, Wang Cheng switched calligraphy from cursive to running script.

Because Xuezi writes running script.

Therefore, Wang Cheng also used running script to write couplets.

Writing as soon as he picks up the pen is more freehand than Xuezi's writing, and each stroke has more artistic conception.

The host immediately followed up and read: "Try water, rivers, streams, lakes and seas! Perfect..."

The host can tell at a glance that this is a perfect and neat second line, with the three-point water radical used in all of it.

Everyone at the scene was a little surprised, but it seemed not so surprising, and it was a little natural!

Xing Tongshu smiled bitterly in a low voice and said: "I really don't know how his mind thinks. This couplet doesn't seem difficult. Give me time and I can figure it out. However, he just wrote it without taking any time to think. Yes, it’s amazing!”

Zhang Guobin and Li Qing were also speechless.

Xuezi on the podium looked at the perfect and neat second line written by Wang Cheng, bit her lip gently, then looked at Wang Cheng, and saw that Wang Cheng was really staring at her, extending her hand to invite her, indicating to continue!

Xuezi took a deep breath, calmed down her emotions, and said softly: "Sir, you are a great talent!"

Then, Xuezi picked up the pen and continued writing.

This time, Xuezi wrote faster.

Everyone in the audience fell silent again, just craning their necks to watch...

The host also recited very dedicatedly: "Winds and rains, warmth and cold, I'm looking for you everywhere!"

Xing Tongshu immediately said: "Fold the couplet!"

Of course, other people in the literary world also saw the mystery of this first couplet at a glance, which was the overlapping words, but it was definitely not something that could be thought of in a short while to make a neat second couplet. Everyone started thinking about it immediately.

However, when they looked at Wang Cheng, they found that Wang Cheng was writing directly. All the people in the literary world who were just about to think smiled bitterly and stopped thinking. They first looked at the answers written by Wang Cheng!

The host also quickly read out: "Yingyingyanyanyan, flowers and leaves, Qingqing day and night!"

"Well written!"

Someone in the audience couldn't help shouting immediately.

It was obvious that an insider who knew couplets couldn't help but screamed when he saw Wang Cheng constantly and quickly matching one neat couplet after another.

There was also a hint of admiration in the eyes of Yukiko on the stage. She did not have as strong a desire to win as Taro Ika and Yuji Nakamura. She enjoyed the process of communication and the process of learning and accumulation. She was a relatively pure person.

Therefore, she was not shocked, but a flash of thought flashed in her eyes, and then she started writing again.

Wang Cheng looked at Xuezi who was writing again, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that this island royal princess was still a simple scholar.

And Xuezi quickly wrote a first couplet!

The host immediately read out: "Chao Yun Chao Chao... uh... Chao Yun Chao Chao Chao Chao Chao retreat... uh, I'm sorry, I don't know how to read it..."

The host, who graduated from the Communication Department with a major in broadcasting, was naturally a little ashamed. He stared at the first couplet again, trying to find the correct pronunciation.

Everyone in the audience was stunned for a moment, and then they understood that the secret of this first couplet may lie in the reading method. Only when you can read it smoothly can you write a neat second couplet!

To find the correct pronunciation of the multi-phonetic character Chao...

A trace of pride flashed in Xuezi's eyes. This was a first couplet she had gotten by chance before. So far, she had never thought of a neat second couplet. At this time, even professional broadcast hosts were stumped. It was obviously very successful. .

Everyone in the audience was full of thoughts...

Xing Tongshu whispered: "This first couplet is really thoughtful and uses polyphonic characters."

but……

When Xuezi looked at Wang Cheng, she found that Wang Cheng had already begun to write. She was speechless and couldn't help being shocked.

She thought about it for a long time, but she still didn't have a neat second line.

result……

Is Wang Cheng writing as soon as he picks up the pen again?

Can't you think about it for a few more seconds and make it look like this first couplet is difficult?

A hint of bitterness also escaped from the corner of Xuezi's mouth.

Xing Tongshu and others in the audience were naturally speechless. Before they could figure out the pronunciation, Wang Cheng had already started writing.

The host was also a little speechless and did not read out the words immediately.

because……

She had made a fool of herself when she read the first couplet of Xuezi's poem just now, failing to understand it. Now looking at Wang Cheng's second couplet, she didn't know how to read it for a moment.

Everyone clearly saw that Wang Cheng wrote a seemingly neat second line.

"The water flows long and long!"

At this time, when the upper and lower couplets were compared, all the knowledgeable people in the industry had a look of surprise on their faces, and instantly understood the mystery.

"What a polyphonic word!"

"The first couplet is good, but the second couplet is even better. Wang Cheng really didn't think about it and just wrote it!"

"I really feel that there is no need to compete. Wang Cheng has been writing down the couplet, and it is much more difficult than the person who made the first couplet. In this way, the two opponents can't beat Wang Cheng in turns. I really feel that they are not the same At this level, Wang Cheng hasn’t even answered a single question yet.”

"I admire the perseverance of the princess of the island country. She came up under huge pressure to make a mess of ratings. Now she still has the courage to face such Wang Cheng. I admire her!"

"I understand……"

…

The host is a broadcasting professional after all, and he quickly figured out the correct pronunciation. He immediately read the upper and lower couplets smoothly and aligned them neatly and perfectly.

At this time, Xuezi also had a look of helplessness on her face.

She really tried her best. Even though she still had a few very difficult first couplets that she had not succeeded in, they were still at a similar level. She knew that even if she succeeded, she would not be able to beat Wang Cheng, and there was no point in doing so.

but……

She couldn't just give in and step down.

Because, in the couplet competition, you cannot let your opponent fail to answer a single question. That would be impolite.

so!

Xuezi gritted his teeth and whispered: "Please ask Mr. Wang Cheng to come up with the question!"

Wang Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in a calm tone: "Are you sure?"

Xuezi nodded and said firmly: "Of course, this is the rule!"

Wang Cheng nodded, knowing that Xuezi was indeed a relatively pure person, so he didn't waste any time and started writing on the white paper.

Write a few words quickly!

There was silence!
