The world is in trouble

Chapter 34 New Concept Composition Stuns the Audience!
Ergou and Paopao continued chatting.

I was surprised and delighted when I first met you, and I was also excited when I stayed with you for a long time.

This sentence was so beautiful, but Xiao Momo didn't dare to reply or go into it any further.

Because it is already too ambiguous, there is a pool of spring water under your feet, and once you step in, you are bound to get wet.

So she changed the subject.

Landed Bubble: I have been so sad these days because there has been no news from the submission side, or maybe movies are really my unrealistic fantasy, and I should stay in a small county and be an English teacher for the rest of my life.

At the same time, the editor-in-chief of Beijing Film Academy Journal began to open his mailbox.

Professor Li is responsible for teaching and is not a full-time editor-in-chief. In addition, the Journal of Beijing Film Academy is more academic and less commercial, so the review process is much slower than that of a normal commercial film magazine.

As soon as he opened it, hundreds of emails appeared and he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

There are a lot of emails here, most of which he won't read.

When looking at these submissions, he first looks at the title.

If the title isn't impressive, I won't bother reading it.

Mediocre, mediocrity, mediocrity!

He frowned and kept clicking to the next page, the next page.

These titles really don't make people want to click on them.

He just quickly clicked to the next page, and then the next page.

Suddenly, he seemed to see something and quickly returned to the previous page.

"2001: A Space Odyssey" is a question mark, not a period.

This title is quite interesting.

Then the next title: "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", the forbidden desire of Mu Bai and Yu Jiaolong.

All of a sudden, he became excited.

This is the amazing entry point.

He first clicked on the first article, which was a film review of "2001: A Space Odyssey".

Very good, of high standard and taste, worthy of being published in a magazine.

Then click on the next article.

This is completely stunning, because it is so eye-catching and bold.

Sometimes, right or wrong is not important, having an opinion is more important!

Then, Professor Li immediately replied in the email.

Xiao Momo opened her email every half an hour as usual.

This time, there is a prompt that there is new email.

Click to take a look!
The first film review of "2001: A Space Odyssey" was approved.

The second article, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", is about the forbidden desires of Li Mubai and Yu Jiaolong. The editor-in-chief, Professor Li, praised it highly and was willing to list it as the first article in the next issue, and the title would appear on the cover of the magazine as a highlight article.

A moment...

Xiao Momo's heart was overwhelmed by infinite joy.

It was as if the haze that filled the sky had completely dissipated.

Then she couldn't wait to send a message to Ergou.

Ergou, we won, we won.

We have passed the manuscript.

Brother Ergou, Brother Ergou, you are so awesome.

Falling Bubbles: How about publishing these two articles under our two names? The pen name is Bubble Blowing Dog.

Please call me Ergou: Why not call me Blow Ergou’s Bubble?

Bubbles falling to the ground: Rogue!

Then, still completely unable to suppress her joy, she stood up from her computer chair and dived into the bed.

The mattress is soft and springy.

And her body is softer and more elastic.

Then she buried her face in the quilt and made bursts of happy noises.

"Baby, what's wrong?" There was a knock on the door from my mother.

"Nothing, just happy." Xiao Momo said.

Mom said, "Silly girl, it comes in waves."

During this period, my baby daughter was in a bad mood and the atmosphere in the whole family was a little depressed.

The couple tried all sorts of ways to make their daughter happy, but to no avail. Then she suddenly became happy again, and no one knew what had happened.

But it's good to be happy, because their family can be full of laughter again.

After rolling around on the bed for a while, she returned to her seat and sent a message: Ergou, how about we meet? It's your birthday on the 11th of next month, how about we meet?
After sending it, she regretted it.

After all, she has a boyfriend, how can she meet another man?
But, it's too late to withdraw.

Please call me Ergou: No.

Bubble falling to the ground: Why?

Please call me Ergou: I want to make a pornographic...website.

Falling Bubbles: Am I not as good as pornographic websites?

Please call me Ergou: I create a porn website just to meet you better.

………………

Professor Bai Wanqing, a professor in the Chinese Department of Aurora University, is one of the main judges of the New Concept Writing Competition. When she heard the name Lin Xiao, she immediately stood up.

She immediately thought of the senior high school boy who was carrying his luggage to catch the train in Hangzhou. He only thought about loneliness for less than a minute and left behind a stunning poem, especially the last two lines.

I would rather disappoint the sun than miss the stars. It is better to be a universe by ourselves than to be human beings to each other.

It describes a lonely person who likes the night vividly.

She was so busy at the time that she forgot to invite him to participate in the New Concept Writing Competition and she is still regretting it. But she didn't expect that he had already participated.

"Is that Lin Xiao from Linshan No. 1 Middle School? Give me his composition."

The expert in the review group didn't care too much and directly handed Lin Xiao's five essays to Professor Bai Wanqing, while he went to review other people's manuscripts.

The other person got the composition written by Guan Wen from Linshan No. 1 Middle School, who was the most talented student in Linshan No. 1 Middle School.

It only took me two minutes to finish reading it, and I suddenly didn’t know what to do.
Although it is not well written, it does have some substance.

It is said that it is well written, but it is difficult to pass it with confidence.

"Teacher Xu, I'm not sure about this essay. Can you help me take a look?"

Expert Xu was the first person to discover Lin Xiao's article. After hearing this, he took over Guan Wen's article.

Likewise, it only took two minutes to finish.

Then he was in trouble too.

This article is really stuck between being acceptable and not being acceptable.

"There are too many articles like this. You can say it's 59 points or 60 points."

"In the spirit of being responsible for them, let's put it aside for now."

So, Guan Wen's article was placed on another table, and all the results were in the pending group.

“There seem to be many articles participating in the competition, but there are indeed few that are amazing. So far, the only ones that have impressed me are Guo Jingming’s “Script” and Lian Yi’s “Water Drops.”

"Yes, it is much better. But it is still not outstanding and cannot impress people."

"After all, they are all children. Whether it is the words or the ideas, it is difficult for them to reach a certain depth. It is too difficult to come up with an article that is outstanding and astonishing to everyone."

Bai Wanqing ignored the conversation of others and read Lin Xiao's submission carefully.

The first article, "The Crack in Time", is not bad and will definitely be accepted, but... it is just not bad.

The second article, "The Second Moon", has a more novel and better idea, but it is still a bit immature.

The third article, "The Metaphor of the Sun", is very good and even meets the criteria for direct award-winning.

The fourth piece, "Butterfly Dream", is already quite amazing. It can definitely win the first prize even in the semi-finals.

These four articles are getting better and better.

But… Professor Bai Wanqing was still a little disappointed. Although these four articles were very good, they were still not enough to be truly amazing.

It seems that we cannot reach the level where it is better to be a universe of our own than to be human to each other.

Bai Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

Poems and articles are different.

After all, poems are short, and as long as there are one or two particularly good sentences, they can surprise everyone. However, articles are often two or three thousand words long, so it is very easy to make a fool of yourself. It is too difficult to surprise everyone from beginning to end.

Then she picked up Lin Xiao’s last article, "Burning".

The first four articles were all based on his award-winning works from his previous life, and three of them directly won the first prize of the New Concept Award.

Only this article "Burning" was originally written by Lin Xiao.

It is about the same person in different time and space, one is only eighteen years old and the other is already forty years old.

At the age of forty, he tried his best, suffered a lot, wasted his life, and finally died alone.

At the age of eighteen, he attended his forty-year-old self's funeral alone.

I watched myself at the age of 40 being burned and turned into ashes.

Watching myself being buried alone, in a lonely grave, under a lonely big tree.

The eighteen-year-old burned paper to commemorate his forty-year-old self and asked him about the meaning of his life.

And the lonely ghost lying in the coffin made a silent response in the dark grave.

Bai Wanqing had just started to read half of it when she felt a chill down her spine.

Very well written, so stunning.

The whole idea is so profound.

It doesn't look like it was written by a teenager at all.

The key point is that this article never answers the question of what the meaning of life is from beginning to end.

There is no chicken soup, no resentment, only endless sighs.

Does life have meaning?
I don’t know, I just sighed and felt a little relieved.

When she saw the last few hundred words, she got goosebumps all over her body and couldn't help but read them out loud.

Everyone in the audience listened to her recitation while whispering to each other.

"We fear the cemetery, but we still rush there day and night. A lonely tree under a lonely moon, a desolate grave, this is also a kind of unattainable charm."

"The long distance makes me miss you so much that I can't even cry."

"It's pitch black all around, and I have nothing. Dear, please forgive my messy words and my broken time."

“A hero may not ask where he came from, but he must have a destination.”

"And here is buried a..."

"Nobody!"

After the recitation, the audience of dozens of people fell silent!
