Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
[??? Amazing. ]
[ F*ck, you guys represent the highest academic level in China. Can you not be humiliating? You did something wrong and still have to be so unyielding. Is this the standard of Qing University? ]
[ Why are you all saying that Qing University did something wrong… Yuan Wanxia has never appeared before. Why is everyone so sure that he’s an old man? What if he’s a young man? Perhaps he’s younger than both of us. ]
[ The person in front, let me tell you. This is impossible. I’m from the Arts department of Qing University. Our professor told us that he can’t compare to Yuan Wanxia’s painting skills. Do you know how old my professor is? Our professor is already in his sixties! ]
Hence, under the appearance of the students from Qing University, the only person who had touched the truth was persuaded and joined the team that denounced the Qing University.
After posting this Weibo post, the Qing University did not post anymore. No matter how many comments the netizens sent, the Qing University remained silent.
The Internet was noisy as everyone was paying attention to the matters between Qing University and Yuan Wanxia. When the various marketing accounts began to flood the screen at eight o’clock in the evening, everyone realized that today was the grand finals of “China’s Poetry Meet”.
“Chinese Poetry Meet” had always had high viewership ratings. The grand finals this time occupied 30% of the market as soon as it started broadcasting.
There were a total of six competitors in the finals. They were all winners who had gone through the preliminaries, the group stages, and the semi-finals. Every one of them was erudite and learned.
The other five contestants had performed very well in the preliminaries and semi-finals. At that time, they had also attracted a lot of attention. This time, when the heroes gathered, the audience rubbed their fists and waited to see the Asura Arena that was filled with open and hidden battles.
Considering the previous competitions, the national channel increased the difficulty of the questions in a straight line.
After the beautiful music, the competition officially began with the host’s opening words.
The green bamboo on the stage was hidden, and the petals fluttered. The camera gradually zoomed past every contestant. Everyone was generally more nervous, except for Xia Wanyuan, who had always had a cold expression, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.
“Alright, now that ‘Chinese Poetry Meet’ has officially begun, it’s the first round. It’s a mixed answering competition. All contestants, please listen to the questions.”
“The sound of firecrackers is one year old. The spring breeze brings warmth into Tu Su.” “Tu Su” here means: Suzhou B house, C Wine D crops. “
Just as the host finished speaking, the six contestants on the scene pressed the lights. Everyone’s answer was C
“Congratulations everyone on answering correctly!”
The judges nodded. As expected of the winners of the semi-finals, everyone’s literary reserves were very deep.
“Please listen to the next question…”
Red lights lit up again, and everyone answered correctly.
Gradually, they had already answered nearly ten questions. Everyone pressed the button instantly. After ten questions, everyone’s score was 100 points. There was no difference.
Before the national television station planned the program, they had already planned out what might happen. Seeing that ordinary questions could not widen the gap, they immediately changed the difficulty of the question bank.
“Which does not exist in the surname of the ‘Hundred Surnames’ A. Wu B. Wú C. Xiao D. Xíao?”
When the question was asked, everyone was stunned. At first glance, they all seemed like they were very common surnames?
While some of the contestants were hesitating, Xia Wanyuan and another person directly revealed their answers.
“Congratulations to Xia Wanyuan and Pang Hui for successfully answering the questions!”
“Next question, the engravings are divided into Yin Wen and Yang Wen Seals. The Beijing Olympic emblem,” China Seal “, is A Yin Wen and B Yang Wen Seal.”
Everyone was silent. The audience on the video platform had already started asking questions.
Isn’t this a poetry meet?? What are these questions??
However, Xia Wanyuan successfully answered him again without any hesitation.
In the following matches, due to the increase in the difficulty of the questions, the Asura Arena that everyone thought they would see did not appear. Instead, only “Congratulations Xia Wanyuan for successfully answering the question! Ten more points!” ran through the entire venue.
Some bored netizens specially squatted and counted. The host said a total of fifty times, “Congratulations to Xia Wanyuan for successfully answering the question!”
Netizen: “Take a rest. I think you’re exhausted.”
Xia Wanyuan’s performance had gone too smoothly. The other five contestants were not ordinary people. Amongst them were university professors and professional scholars.
The questions that even they felt were very difficult were as simple as chopping carrots for Xia Wanyuan. The comments online completely exploded.
[ I knew there was a conspiracy. ]
[ That’s too fake!! I didn’t even have time to finish reading those questions when Xia Wanyuan’s answer came out. ]
[ How much did Star Creation Entertainment spend to promote Xia Wanyuan? Oh my god, can’t they at least hide it? Why are they cheating so openly? Do they treat others as idiots? ]
In the final outcome of the competition, Xia Wanyuan undoubtedly won the championship of the grand finals. There was no suspense.
At that moment, phone calls from the national television station were exploding. Everyone was here to complain that the program was shady.
The staff looked for the Station Leader in a panic. Who would have thought that the Station Leader would smile mysteriously? “Hang the phone at the side. Let them call. They won’t be able to call in now.”
The staff looked at the mysterious station leader with a confused expression. What does this mean??
The continued fermentation of public opinion on the Internet had alerted the department in charge of national television. The higher-ups had specially sent people over to ask, and the answer they received was that public opinion would disappear at night.
Time passed slowly. That night, at eight o’clock, another “Focused Figures” program on national television began to broadcast. The guests for this episode had not been forecast before. Only when the program began did everyone see from the announcement column.
The guest for this episode of “Focused Figures” invited Yuan Wanxia, who had donated nearly twenty million dollars to the Northwest Forestry Engineering Project.
The host first introduced the situation in the northwest desert, then introduced Yuan Wanxia’s work and her contributions in the northwest forest building project.
Some attentive netizens noticed that when the words on the television station pointed at Yuan Wanxia, they were using “her”. They were about to say why the national television station was so imprecise.
Then, the camera turned.
“Let us welcome today’s guest, Yuan Wanxia.”
A stunning face appeared on camera..
