Chapter 614: Internet Celebrity Style
The calligraphy exam was over, but Liu Lan's exam was not over yet. She had another professional course exam in the afternoon. After finishing this course, she went straight to Professor Su's office to report to him about the calligraphy exam results.
After looking through the collection of calligraphy photos Liu Man sent him, Su Yi selected a few and asked her to post them on Weibo. He said, "Post these good ones online so that everyone can see them."
Liu Man pointed at the other pieces of calligraphy and asked in confusion, "What about these?"
"Even an old guy like me knows that people like to see the comparison between top students and poor students. We have to increase the topic!"
On the surface, Su Yi looked the same as before, smiling and speaking with full energy, but only he knew that his health was not as good as before. He was worried that his life would end one day, so he placed all his hopes on his little apprentice Liu Lan. In addition to letting Liu Lan inherit his mantle, he also hoped that Liu Lan would promote the calligraphy class at Capital University, preferably making it a classic elective course so that every class of students in the future could understand and learn calligraphy.
Asking Liu Man to substitute for the class was the wisest decision he had ever made. How could he know that Liu Man had the talent to be a teacher if he hadn't tried it? The total number of views of Liu Man's five lessons has exceeded 100 million, and she is very popular in educational videos. In addition to the fact that she is an Internet celebrity, the more important point is that she is really good at teaching.
In fact, Su Yi watched all five videos. In fact, Liu Lan was talking about the content he taught her, but he felt that what she said was much more interesting than what he said. He was an impatient person, and every time he taught Liu Lan, he would pour out everything to her at once. As for whether she could understand it, it was not within his consideration.
But not everyone has Liu Man's foundation and brain, and the same teaching method is not suitable for ordinary people. The knowledge improved by Liu Man is not only easy to understand, but also humorous and interesting, closer to young people. Perhaps this is a kind of "Internet celebrity style". Suyi does not reject Internet celebrities at all. From ancient times to the present, cultural communication channels have been changing. Each era has its own unique style. Adapting to the times and going with the trend is the right way.
So that night, Liu Lan followed Professor Su's instructions and posted two consecutive Weibo posts.
...
...
In her first post, she wrote: "Capital University has opened its first elective course in regular script, which has come to a successful conclusion today. I supervised the final exam this morning, and 137 students chose to take the course. A total of 137 people took the exam, and no one was absent. This is cause for celebration (applause). My teacher, Professor Su Yi, and I have carefully selected several excellent works for everyone to appreciate."
The picture accompanying this Weibo post is a nine-square grid image, which contains nine calligraphy works. Some of them are classical Chinese prose with long sections, while some are famous quotes with short and concise characters. Each piece of calligraphy is in regular script, which is neat, beautiful and pleasing to the eye, which surprised netizens.
"These were all written by students from Capital University? They don't look amateurish at all, and the handwriting is really beautiful."
"Look carefully, each painting has flaws, but this level is pretty good for a beginner."
"It's just a public elective course, so the requirements can't be too high."
"I watched the video of this course online. I feel like I'm clumsy and can't write it. The top students are different. They learn everything quickly."
"My favorite is the sixth one, 'Han has a wandering girl, who cannot be sought after'. It doesn't have many words, but it reads very interestingly. I bet the author of this calligraphy must be a boy."
…
Liu Lan blurred out the names and classes of everyone's signatures, so no one except her and the authors themselves could tell who these works belonged to.
Professor Su was impressed by Xiong Jie's calligraphy at first sight, but he didn't know the real reason. He told Liu Lan that he could see that other students wrote well because they had some basic knowledge of calligraphy, such as when they were young and their parents had enrolled them in calligraphy interest classes. Xiong Jie's calligraphy was obviously learned and practiced on the spot, and his gestures were immature, but the important thing was his serious attitude, and every stroke was full of emotion.
Liu Lan felt uncomfortable after hearing this. It took Xiong Jie an hour to write just eight words. How could he not be serious?
Unexpectedly, netizens also liked Xiong Jie's calligraphy the most. It can only be said that everyone has been exposed to too many things on the Internet, and everyone has trained a pair of sharp eyes. This sentence written by Xiong Jie also became popular. Many people went to find the original text. One netizen left a message saying, "This is a relatively obscure article in the Book of Songs. The author is quite literary, but just writing this sentence, I feel like there is an intention to confess to someone."
Seeing this message, Liu Lan broke out in a cold sweat and quickly posted a second Weibo to divert attention, writing: "I just posted 'classmates' ideal exam works', but in fact, most people's works are like this:"
