Chapter 237 236. The cultural circle has spread from south to north? Invited by a professor from a prestigious university...? (Subscribe please!)

Everyone stood up again and looked at Wang Qian on the podium and the detailed picture projected on the blackboard!

Xue Zhenguo whispered to Xue Man, "I haven't been so excited about someone's work in a long time!"

Xue Man nodded: "Me too!"

She looked at the others again, especially at some of the people standing there were some familiar faces, all of whom were professors from other prestigious schools or famous alumni, and added in a low voice: "Maybe, they are the same!"

Xue Zhenguo also turned around to look, nodded and smiled at a few people he knew, and said in agreement: "Yes! It's been a long time since the Chinese literary world has had any surprising new blood. It's been a long time since there have been any truly thoughtful literary works!"

After the new era.

However, the development of literature has regressed in terms of ideological thinking.

A large number of works are catering to the market. The scale of the industry and its revenue have certainly increased compared to before, but there has never been a masterpiece that is qualified to depict and represent an era.

There have also been no truly high-level poetry works like those by Wang Qian.

Many people dare to say that they have created poetry just by writing a few sentences, and many people even praise it...

Compared with the current Wang Qian.

Xue Zhenguo felt that Wang Qian was suddenly surrounded by many halos, as if to illuminate the entire era, to attract the attention of all the literati of his generation, and to make all other literati of his generation look very small under his light, including himself! The brush in Wang Qian's hand slowly fell on the paper! A few words quickly appeared.

Linjiangxian.

As soon as three words came out.

There was some small discussion at the scene immediately.

When everyone saw these three words, they couldn't help but excitedly discuss in low voices.

It seems that every word written by Wang Qian is worth their careful consideration.

"It's the name of a ci tune. This is an ancient ci work."

"Linjiangxian is indeed an ancient poem!"

"Just now we had a poem in the style of Tang poetry, and now we are going to have another poem in the style of Song poetry?"

“I’m really looking forward to it!”

“These three words are really beautiful.”

The low voices of discussion quickly disappeared.

The whole place became silent again, and one could hear a pin drop.

because.

Wang Qian's brush did not stop.

Everyone stretched their necks again and continued to stare at every detail, staring at every movement of Wang Qian's brush, and even how the hand holding the brush moved every time.

People who like calligraphy stare at Wang Qian's every movement of writing and try to remember every detail as much as possible. This will make it easier for them to go back and practice and copy Wang Qian's Slender Gold calligraphy font, and perhaps they can get started as soon as possible.

but.

Most people are still paying attention to Wang Qian's work itself.

Xiao Dongmei stood quietly beside Wang Qian, slightly tilting her head and stretching her slender white neck. Her big, calm eyes looked at Wang Qian and the words he wrote without blinking. Wang Qian and the words seemed to become a painting and a whole in her mind.

Qin Xuerong continued to grind the ink gently with a smile on her face.

Qin Xuehong, who was standing near the stage, had red eyes of envy. She looked at Liu Shengnan again and thought that she must find an opportunity to squeeze Wang Qian dry soon, and then ask him to write two identical calligraphy works for her, for her own collection.

The words appeared on the paper one by one.

"The Yangtze River rolls eastward, its waves washing away all heroes."

A majestic aura hits you in the face.

The scene remained quiet.

Wang Qian was completely immersed in it, as if he were in the heroic and turbulent times of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Each word is full of vitality and spirit.

"Success and failure have turned into nothing."

"The green mountains remain, and the sunsets are still red."

"The white-haired fisherman and woodcutter on the river bank are used to seeing the autumn moon and spring breeze."

"A pot of wine brings joy to our reunion."

"So many things in the past and present are just jokes!"

All in one go.

Finished it quickly! The whole poem quickly changed from the grandeur at the beginning to vicissitudes and indifference, with a sense of returning to nature.

It seems that all the passion, all the heroism, in the end, is nothing but a touch of yellow earth.

Wang Qian continued to write directly in the signature: Presented to my good friend Xiao Dongmei, on a certain date in a certain year, in a classroom at Shuangxing University, Wang Qian! Many people saw this scene, and before they could react, they suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.

Everyone seems to feel that they have missed out on a jackpot worth hundreds of millions.

The grand prize was right before their reach, but now they have to watch helplessly as someone else takes it away!

Lu Chunhu whispered, "Xiao Dongmei is so lucky. Why don't Chen Xiangdong and his team recruit Xiao Dongmei to our school?"

Tang Hepeng smiled bitterly and said, "I remember that Director Chen tried to contact Xiao Dongmei last year, but Xiao Dongmei refused, saying that she was too lazy to move. Director Chen said that she didn't need to move, and the school would arrange all the necessary supplies for her, and she could just come. Xiao Dongmei said she was too lazy to move..."

Guo Zhuangzhuang said: "Indeed, this is true. I went to Xiao Dongmei's house to lobby her, but was kicked out! We were all surprised that Xiao Dongmei accepted Shuangxing's invitation this time. I don't know what Shuangxing gave her to make her stay."

Lu Chunhu shook his head: "It's a pity for such a talented person. It's also a pity for Professor Wang's masterpiece of calligraphy. This poem is also quite artistic. The more you read it carefully, the more interesting it becomes."

Tang Hepeng also nodded in agreement: "Indeed, it is not as vigorous as the chivalrous act just now, but it is also very memorable. Shuangxing is really lucky."

Applause broke out!

And the first to applaud.

They are Su Jiangsheng and several professors from the Chinese Department of Shuangxing University.

Then Li Huangjiang and other people from Shuangxing also applauded vigorously.

Then, applause spread throughout the audience!

Li Huangjiang had a smile on his face, as if he had already seen the scene of this calligraphy hanging in his office!

Or, give it to the teacher?

Or should I practice copying it myself for a while before giving it to the teacher as a gift? Li Huangjiang suddenly thought of many ways to deal with this calligraphy, and whispered to Su Jiangsheng and others: "I have always admired Professor Xiao..."

Su Jiangsheng smiled but said nothing.

He treated Xiao Dongmei very well, and when he proposed this, Li Huangjiang was among those who opposed it.

The reason was that Xiao Dongmei was too young and not worth so much effort, but now he said that he had always admired Xiao Dongmei? However, at this time, he was too lazy to undermine his leader.

Just applaud and that's it.

On the podium.

Xiao Dongmei smiled and looked very calm, but in fact she was very excited and moved!

Taking a step forward, Xiao Dongmei took the calligraphy work that Wang Qian handed over with both hands, bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, I like it very much."

Wang Qian also said with a smile: "It's good that you like it. Don't be so formal. It makes me embarrassed!"

Looking at Xiao Dongmei bowing as if he was presenting an award, Wang Qian felt a little embarrassed.

Xiao Dongmei stood up and smiled at Wang Qian, "Your work is a prize to me. Professor Wang, can I continue to ask questions?"

Wang Qian nodded: "Of course!"

The applause at the scene has gradually stopped.

Because everyone noticed that the two people seemed to be talking about something on the podium, so they all stopped applauding and listened carefully to the voice coming from the podium.

At this time.

Xiao Dongmei looked at the work Wang Qian had just written and asked, "There is no name of a Three Kingdoms character or historical event in this poem. Professor Wang, what does this represent about your feelings about the history of the Three Kingdoms?"

Everyone recalled the piece they had just seen and nodded, it seemed to be true.

Xiao Dongmei suggested that Wang Qian write a poem about his thoughts on the Three Kingdoms.

However, in this ancient poem "Linjiangxian", there is not a single word related to the characters or things of the Three Kingdoms.

It seems to be just an ancient poem that has nothing to do with the Three Kingdoms.

Although the work itself is indeed worth savoring, and contains a sense of returning to nature, it seems to have gone off topic.

But……

However, no one dared to doubt casually, and no one dared to speak out their doubts.

Because Wang Qian has demonstrated many talents and works, as well as his understanding of the history of the Three Kingdoms.

Then, everyone naturally believes that Wang Qian would not just write a piece of work to fool everyone.

so……

Could there be some reason they didn't know? After all, they didn't seem to know the history of the Three Kingdoms as well as Wang Qian did.

Everyone looked at Wang Qian, waiting for his answer.

Wang Qian said immediately: "In fact, this is what I felt after learning about the history of the Three Kingdoms. The first sentence, "The Yangtze River flows eastward, and its waves wash away so many heroes!" The Yangtze River flows eastward represents history and time. In this long river of history, countless heroes emerged! What I am talking about here are the many heroes in the history of the Three Kingdoms."

"But, in the end, the stories of these heroes, regardless of their success or failure, all disappeared in the long river of time and became just a joke for others after drinking."

“That’s exactly what I think, thank you!”

Wang Qian explained very seriously: "Actually, I want to use this poem as the opening poem of the novel about the Three Kingdoms that I am planning! So, I think this is my intuitive feeling about many heroes of the Three Kingdoms."

Xiao Dongmei thought about it, and then said expectantly: "Then I will wait for Professor Wang's Three Kingdoms masterpiece. I hope I won't have to wait too long."

Wang Qian thought for a moment and said, "Maybe in a few years!"

For a novel based on history, and a work that has a certain literary and narrative quality, a few years is a relatively short time from the start of writing to its publication.

Any of the classic long works in history took more than ten years to create, and many masterpieces were even produced by the authors who spent decades or most of their lives polishing them bit by bit!

so.

The few years Wang Qian mentioned are relatively short for a literary and artistic person like Xiao Dongmei.

But for those who are younger and accustomed to Internet culture, this time is too long!

A few years is enough time for those online writers to write several novels, and it is also enough time for them to forget about this matter...

Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Dongmei once again bowed gently to Wang Qian and Qin Xuerong to express her gratitude. Then she took the work given by Wang Qian, turned around and walked down the podium, returned to her seat in the first row, and sat down comfortably.

Su Jiangsheng, Wang Xuewen, Xie Yu, and Zhang Wanying all focused their attention on Xiao Dongmei's hands...

However, Xiao Dongmei ignored them and just sat there quietly with her work in her hands, looking at Wang Qian on the podium.

Li Huangjiang, Su Jiangsheng and others were all extremely jealous, but they knew that now was not the right time, so they didn't say anything.

After Wang Qian answered Xiao Dongmei's questions, he looked at everyone and said, "Well, today's class is over. Today's class was too rushed, so I didn't prepare anything. I just chatted with you here casually. If you are not satisfied, please forgive me."

The applause suddenly broke out again.

Someone among the students shouted: "Very satisfied! Professor Wang, please continue..."

Wang Qian smiled and shook his head, saying, "I won't keep the class going any longer. If I continue, I may not know what to say. I've been too tired recently, and I'll be going abroad to participate in a competition in a few days, so I want to go back and have a good rest. Today's class is really over. You can leave now."

After a pause, Wang Qian pointed to the couplet on the blackboard and said, "Don't forget the homework I left for you. If you have free time and are interested in couplets, you can try to think of a second line. Once you have written it, please @ me on Weibo or contact your Professor Xiao..."

The applause has stopped.

Everyone looked at the couplet again.

So far.

Except for the two written by Liu Shengnan and Xiao Dongmei.

No one else has come up with a more neat second line yet.

The same goes for Guo Zhuangzhuang and several of his screenwriter friends; they haven’t figured it out yet.

Therefore, Guo Zhuangzhuang remained silent and stood up, turned around and walked towards the exit, wanting to leave as soon as possible and not stay here to listen to others talking about him. He knew with his toes that there was nothing good to say to him! Lu Chunhu and Tang Hepeng did not leave immediately, but stayed here and walked to the front row, wanting to chat with Wang Qian. The two sides were acquaintances, so it was necessary to say hello.

Su Jiangsheng immediately asked several teachers to maintain order during the exit of the classroom.

but……

There are still a large number of students who stayed and wanted Wang Qian's autograph!

Su Jiangsheng came up to Wang Qian and asked, "Professor Wang, many of our students want your autograph, what do you think?"

Wang Qian said softly, "Then let's have 100 people. Let the extra people go and say sorry to them."

Su Jiangsheng smiled and said, "One hundred is more than enough. Professor Wang, you don't have to apologize. I'll arrange it right away. I'm sorry to have wasted your time again."

Wang Qian smiled and said, "It's not a delay. Half a day has passed anyway. I just hope Director Su won't do this again in the future."

Su Jiangsheng smiled awkwardly: "Okay, I'll try my best!"

He knew that Wang Qian was talking about semi-forcing him to give the lecture, but if there was another chance, he would still do it.

Su Jiangsheng turned around and said a few words to several security guards and young teachers, and they immediately went to the back to maintain order. They kept the first hundred students who stayed to sign, and the rest of the students had to be allowed to leave.

Wang Qian sat behind the desk and began to sign autographs for the one hundred students lining up in front of him!

"What's your classmate's name?"

"Wang Cheng..."

Wang Qian quickly wrote his signature with a hard pen.

Each student was slightly excited when they received Wang Qian's autograph.

They are not star-chasers, because in their eyes, Wang Qian is a great contemporary poet, lyricist, and calligrapher! This is why they like Wang Qian.

It’s not because Wang Qian is a big star in the entertainment industry!

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Of course, they also like Wang Qian’s musical works, but they will not become his fans because of Wang Qian’s musical works. However, they will become Wang Qian’s fans because of these literary works!

Although, in essence, it’s all about chasing stars.

However, they will not become vulgar and mindless fans...

But, I like literature...

Qin Xuerong guarded Wang Qian.

Qin Xuehong, Liu Shengnan and Xiao Dongmei were chatting in low voices.

"Dongmei, how about you and Shengnan come to my place to frame your works later?"

Qin Xuehong took the initiative to extend the invitation.

Xiao Dongmei shook her head gently and said, "Sorry, I won't go. I live in the school's apartment, and I can find what you need there. I'll say goodbye to Wang Qian later, and then go back to frame it and keep it. I won't bother you anymore."

Qin Xuehong was slightly disappointed: "Okay..."

She wants to ask if she can transfer the things in your hands...

However, looking at Xiao Dongmei's expression, she knew that it was probably impossible.

She could only give the other party money, but the other party seemed to be famous for his disdain for money.

Liu Shengnan? She wanted what Liu Shengnan had even more, but she also knew that was the least likely thing to come to her.

That song "Xia Ke Xing" is obviously more stunning than this "Lin Jiang Xian".

Tang Hepeng came to Liu Shengnan and tried to ask, "Shengnan, when are you going to come back to your alma mater?"

Liu Shengnan smiled and said, "I will definitely make time to go to the school celebration next year, and I will definitely go to see Professor Tang then."

Tang Hepeng was Liu Shengnan's university teacher, so there was obvious respect in her tone.

Tang Hepeng glanced at Lu Chunhu who winked at him, then lowered his voice and said, "Shengnan, can you lend me this work of yours for a few days? As you know, Professor Lu and I are both studying and practicing Professor Wang's calligraphy fonts. We would like to borrow your original calligraphy of Professor Wang to observe and practice."

Lu Chunhu added: "Just three days, Shengnan, come to the school anytime after three days to ask for it!"

Liu Shengnan smiled apologetically and refused firmly: "Professor Tang, Professor Lu, I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request. I will return to Chengdu this afternoon. I also like this work very much, so I can't leave it here."

Lu Chunhu: "Shengnan, we will keep it well for you. It will not be damaged at all. We will return it to you intact when the time comes..."

Liu Shengnan still smiled apologetically: "Sorry, Professor Lu..."

Just sorry, Liu Shengnan didn’t say anything more, but the meaning she expressed was firm and clear.

I want to borrow this thing.

There is no possibility.

Lu Chunhu and Tang Hepeng looked at each other. Although they had expected the result a long time ago, they still felt a little regretful and disappointed.

Tang Hepeng smiled and said, "It's okay. We understand. After all, this work is of extraordinary value. If you just hand it over to us casually, in case of damage, we really can't afford to pay for it..."

Liu Shengnan shook her head: "It's not a question of value. Professor Tang, this work also has an unusual meaning to me. So, it has nothing to do with money."

Tang Hepeng stopped talking immediately and decided to continue the conversation.

And here...

Su Jiangsheng also came to Xiao Dongmei: "Dongmei, can I help you frame this painting of Professor Wang?"

Xiao Dongmei's eyes fell on Wang Qian. After hearing what Su Jiangsheng said, she shook her head and said, "No, thank you Director Su. I like to do it myself. I have the tools and materials."

Su Jiangsheng nodded, and then tried to say: "There are not many young people who have this skill nowadays. Dongmei, you are really versatile. This is the case, Dongmei, Principal Li and I both like calligraphy, especially Wang Qian's new style calligraphy, so we want to borrow your calligraphy for two days of observation and practice. After two days, we will return it to you, how about it?"

Xiao Dongmei then glanced at Su Jiangsheng, and then said calmly: "No."

The fewer words she spoke, the colder Xiao Dongmei's mood was, which showed her clear reluctance and unwillingness to continue the conversation.

Su Jiangsheng smiled bitterly, then looked at Li Huangjiang and shrugged, expressing helplessness.

Li Huangjiang frowned. Seeing this, he personally came up to Xiao Dongmei and whispered, "Dongmei, there are many people in the school who like Wang Qian's calligraphy, but there are almost no opportunities for everyone to see Wang Qian's original calligraphy in the thin gold style. This time, you got a piece of work. I hope you can take it out and lend it to everyone to learn and improve, and help everyone."

Xiao Dongmei didn't even look at Li Huangjiang, her tone became even colder, and she said the same two words: "No!"

If Xiao Dongmei had not said goodbye to Wang Qian formally yet, she would have wanted to turn around and leave, not wanting to see Su Jiangsheng and Li Huangjiang again.

Li Huangjiang's expression became even uglier.

As a powerful person in the school, he asked a new professor to borrow a piece of calligraphy, but was rejected for just borrowing it? Li Huangjiang felt that he had lost face in front of the people he knew.

A rage grew in my heart and my cheeks became extremely hot!

I really want to have an attack...

However, looking at Xiao Dongmei's cold face.

Li Huangjiang held back.

He knows...

He dares to lose his temper.

The other party dared to leave.

and……

There are many famous schools competing to recruit people.

This is a person with strength and talent.

There is an urgent need for talent on both sides.

The same goes for binary stars.

So, after the anger burned for a second.

Li Huangjiang quickly put out his anger, showed a stiff smile, and said: "Forget it then..."

After saying a few simple words and finding a way out for himself, Li Huangjiang turned around and left.

Su Jiangsheng met and chatted with Tang Hepeng and Lu Chunhu for a few words, and also chatted with Xue Zhenguo for a few words, fulfilling his duty as a good host.

At this time.

Wang Qian signed a hundred signatures.

After seeing off the hundred fans who wanted autographs, he relaxed, stretched his wrists, and prepared to leave.

Qin Xuerong immediately handed the cup of water to Wang Qian's mouth, and Wang Qian took it and took a big sip of water.

Then.

Everyone who was waiting for Wang Qian here came over quickly.

Tang Hepeng came up and said, "Professor Wang, today's class was really wonderful. I hope you can come to Zhejiang University and give us a class again next time!"

Wang Qian smiled and said, "Professor Tang, you are too kind. I dare not give lectures to you nerds anymore. I am afraid that I will be stumped by you. That would be embarrassing."

Lv Chunhu: "No one has been able to stump Professor Wang yet, which shows that he is truly talented and knowledgeable! Zhejiang University is always open to Professor Wang and welcomes him to give lectures and exchange ideas."

Don't hit someone who smiles at you.

Wang Qian replied perfunctorily: "It depends on the time. I may not have time recently."

Tang Hepeng and Lu Chunhu both knew that Wang Qian was just being perfunctory, so they didn't say much and just said goodbye and left. They were just asking casually, and it was enough for them to come here and get acquainted with Wang Qian.

Watched several people from Zhejiang University leave.

Xue Zhenguo came up and shook hands with Wang Qian solemnly, saying, "Hello, Professor Wang, I am Xue Zhenguo."

Wang Qian said hurriedly: "Oh, you are Professor Xue, I have heard of you for a long time!"

Xue Man stood beside Xue Zhenguo without saying a word. She just nodded slightly to Wang Qian and smiled without saying anything.

Xue Zhenguo said directly in front of Su Jiangsheng and others, "Professor Wang, I have watched the video of your lecture at Zhejiang University, and I came to Shuangxing to listen to your lecture in person this time, which touched me deeply. You are a truly talented and talented genius. On behalf of Peking University, I now formally extend an invitation to you. I hope that you can come to the Chinese Department of Peking University to give a class and chat with us when you have time."

After hearing what Xue Zhenguo said, the people around were all surprised and looked over at the same time.

This is Kyoto University...

A comprehensive prestigious university that consistently ranks among the top two in the country.

It is ranked quite high in the world and it is no exaggeration to say that it is a world-class university.

Xue Zhenguo now publicly extends an invitation to Wang Qian on behalf of Peking University.

This shows.

Xue Zhenguo, on behalf of Beijing University, recognized Wang Qian's talent and strength, as well as his current status! This is absolutely representative.

In a sense, Peking University also represents the voice of part of Beijing culture, and even the voice of some of the upper echelons of the circle.

Therefore, if Wang Qian accepted the invitation and went to Peking University to give lectures, and if he successfully concluded the lecture and received recognition, then Wang Qian would have truly conquered both the southern and northern cultural circles.

at present.

The lectures Wang Qian gave at Zhejiang University and Shuangxing, as well as the works he published, were absolutely successful, and were recognized by a part of the southern literary circles represented by these two institutions! If Wang Qian went to Peking University, he would be recognized by a part of the Beijing cultural circle.

So……

Wang Qian has truly been recognized by many influential people in the Chinese cultural circle. It is inevitable that Wang Qian will be recognized by the entire Chinese cultural circle.

And with Wang Qian's current strength and talent, as well as his calligraphy and literary status, once he is recognized, he will rise to the top in the Chinese literary circle, and it is not impossible for him to become a representative figure of contemporary Chinese literature...

This is what everyone present is pursuing but cannot obtain.

Wang Qian, however, has the opportunity to do this...

Wang Qian himself didn’t think too much about it, but when he heard the other party’s identity and invitation, he felt deeply pressured!

Kyoto University, that was a famous university that he couldn’t even see the back of when he looked up at it in his previous life.

Asking him to give a lecture now? He really didn't dare to do so for the time being, so he said, "Thank you Professor Xue for your recognition and invitation, but I may be too busy and don't have time to go!"

Xue Zhenguo immediately said: "It's okay, as long as Professor Wang agrees, let me know when you have time, and we will arrange a time and place for you to give the lecture!"

Wang Qian was stunned for a moment.

Xue Man smiled and said, "Professor Wang, your work is also very popular in Beijing University. Many students I know want to hear you talk about it."

Wang Qian sighed: "It depends on the time..."

I didn't agree, nor did I refuse. I just said it depends on the time and I will just say I don't have time later.

Xue Zhenguo wanted to speak more.

Su Jiangsheng stepped forward and said, "Professor Wang, I just discussed with Principal Li and decided to hire you as an honorary professor of our Shuangxing Chinese Department. There will be no restrictions on class and work hours. Just let us know when you want to come to class and we will arrange it for you immediately. If you don't come, we won't force you to teach, and you can still enjoy the same treatment as Professor Xiao..."

The same treatment as Xiao Dongmei?

A proper professor title... a high salary, a 200 square meter apartment, and a private car? But not even used to teach a single class?

Whether to come to class depends entirely on my mood?

The whole place fell silent again, and all eyes turned to Su Jiangsheng.

This time, Shuangxing really spent a lot of money.
