Chapter 349 "Yueyang Tower", full marks!



The themes of poetry from the first phase appeared on the screens outside Yueyang Tower and in the lobby inside the tower.

Sure enough, it was just as many people expected - writing poetry with Dongting Lake or Yueyang Tower as the background, the genre was not limited to poetry, songs or parallel prose, and was not limited to the season.

This is more relaxed, and many people breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.

Because it may take a year or even two years to polish a high-quality poem.

Chen Xian also breathed a sigh of relief, because many of the poems about Dongting Lake in his memory were written in autumn...

Since it is not limited to any season, it is very easy to handle.

Countless ancient poems written by the ancestors of the earth flashed through his mind, and then he selected one and typed it into his mobile phone.

"Yueyang Tower" written by Yuan Zhen in the Tang Dynasty.

On the other side, after seeing the question, Zhang Hongting took out a pen and paper and started writing on his notebook.

As he was old, he was not very good at operating a mobile phone, so naturally Wang Jie and Wu Zhe input the data into the mobile phone for him, and it started to synchronize on the big screen.

He wrote a seven-character poem.

The first thing that appeared on the big screen was a seven-character poem.

"No. 37, "Seven-character Verse: On Yueyang Tower in Spring"

Yunmeng Spring is deep and the water reaches the sky.

The wind in Baling is warm and the willows are covered with smoke.

Thousands of sails fall outside Junshan Mountain.

Ten thousand acres of light float on the edge of the setting sun.

Flowers in front of the Bi Bo Lake are covered with rain.

Swallows fly through the curtains beside Yueyang Tower.

When will I drink from the moon in the lake again?

Drunk on the pillow, the sound of waves accompanies the crane's sleep.

Number 37 was the number Zhang Hongting chose.

Chen Xian didn't know who No. 37 was, but when he saw Zhang Hongting's poem, he suddenly felt that this person was something.

This seven-character poem first points out the season, with a broad atmosphere. The second sentence describes the close scene in detail, and the swallows flying through the curtains beside the Yueyang Tower are captured in motion, which suits the season at this time.

Many people also saw this poem on the big screen outside.

"Wow, it's only been a few minutes since the show started and someone has already written this seven-character poem. It looks pretty good!"

“It’s quite grand.”

"No. 37, I wonder which great writer wrote this poem."

Many tourists outside were discussing it, and many people posted it online, sparking discussion among ancient poetry lovers.

On the ninth floor, the nine judges were the first to see this poem.

"Yiyao, what do you think of this seven-character poem?" Shen Tunan asked Song Yiyao.

"I think it's okay, at least better than what I wrote." Song Yiyao said.

"Old Wen, what do you think?" Shen Tunan then asked Wen Cangyu.

Wen Cangyu smiled slightly: "Not bad, this is a pretty good poem about scenery."

Several judges then began to score.

Song Yiyao gave one point, and Chu Feng said, "I think it's just average, no points."

The other judges discussed it and finally came to a conclusion.

This seven-character poem received six points out of nine judges, which means that three judges did not give any points.

But this is already a high score!

A voice began to announce on the big screen: "Contestant No. 37's seven-character poem scored six points!"

Wow.

Many people at the scene were applauding and looking around, wanting to see who contestant No. 37 was.

But many people hid the number after getting it and did not show it.

Zhang Hongting was somewhat satisfied with this result.

Yao Duoer naturally knew that No. 37 was Zhang Hongting. After seeing the score, she breathed a sigh of relief. He got 6 points for the first song, which was a good start.

She knows Zhang Hongting and believes that there will definitely be better works in the future.

Soon, poems began to appear on the big screen.

However, the level of many of them is not good enough. Some don’t even understand the most basic prosody and rhythm. Their poems are completely doggerel, and it is obvious that they are just there to make up the story.

Several judges watched dozens of songs and became a little bored.

Some even just took a quick glance and hastily pressed the "pass" button without giving even a single point.

"There are still ten minutes left to finish the first song, so hurry up," the host's voice sounded.

Chen Xian did not delay any longer and wrote "Yueyang Tower" on his mobile phone.

The sun is shining through the window of Yueyang Tower.

The shadow of the red jade tower falls into the deep pool.

Looking at the end of spring with all my heart,

The water from Manling Lake flows into the West River.

This is a seven-character quatrain written by Yuan Zhen, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. The first two lines of the poem describe the scenery, from the red sun shining obliquely through the window of the building to the shadow of the building falling into the lake.

The last two lines are lyrical. The author's real intention is not to climb the tower to enjoy the view, but to use it to express his melancholy feelings in the fading spring.

The whole poem is well-crafted in sentences and words, and is novel and accurate, with a unique perspective and profound implications.

The moment this seven-character quatrain appeared, it attracted countless people's attention.

"Hey, this poem..." Shen Tunan was about to fall asleep while reading. Among the hundreds of poems, except for the 37th and the 53rd poem which were slightly brighter, the others were unsatisfactory.

When he saw this quatrain, his eyes lit up.

Song Yiyao also studied this quatrain carefully, and the more she read, the more she found it exquisite.

The first sentence describes the red sun shining obliquely through the windows of a building, which is a common sight for people.

However, using the word "衔" to evoke the reader's associations makes the whole scene come alive.

The second sentence describes the reflection of the building. When the sun shines on the window, the shadow of the building falls on the red jade building in the lake. The perspective is novel and unique.

The third sentence, "Looking at the fading spring with a myriad of feelings," points out that the author's real intention is not to climb the tower to enjoy the view, but to use it to express his melancholy feelings in the fading spring, which includes both a sigh for the loss of spring and a lament for the disappointments in life.

The mood of the whole poem is very subtle and graceful.
