After I was reborn, I became a great writer

Chapter 18 Rural Teachers
The campus of Zhenhua Middle School has been a little quiet in recent days. There are far fewer students who usually go out to fight around after class, and more students keep their heads down and write articles buried in thick books on their desks.

Even the teachers have slowed down the progress of their lectures, and some teachers have even given up class time to prepare students for the competition.

The Chinese teachers are the busiest at this time, and they also have to take care of the guidance.There are some students who are valued by teachers are directly dragged to the office to start a small kitchen alone, which is understandable, there are so many students in the school, it is impossible for the teachers to help all of them.

In the past two days, Chen Tianhong didn't bother to find Liu Yifei to exchange feelings. One reason was that Liu Yifei was also the one who was left alone by the teacher, and she had already been called away by Cao Bing.The second is that he is writing his own entry.

Since the chat with his father Chen Zhide that night, Chen Tianhong had a flash of inspiration and thought of a very suitable short science fiction story in his previous life.

That is the short story "Country Teacher" by Liu Cixin, the great science fiction god in his previous life. Liu Cixin has many famous works in his previous life, the most famous of which are the "Three-Body Problem" series and "The Wandering Earth". Although "Country Teacher" is relatively less well-known, it is definitely the most suitable for this competition.

First of all, the full text of "Rural Teacher" only has more than 2 words, which does not exceed the word limit of the competition.More importantly, the theme of the novel definitely fits.

Developed from the perspective of science fiction, this novel extols the noble character of the teacher. The enlightenment and educational significance of the whole novel are unmatched by other similar novels.

Chen Tianhong rubbed his sore fingers, flicked the pen and found that it was out of ink again.

Although Chen Tianhong is a professional writer, it is a bit too much.This competition is for handwritten manuscripts, unlike online novels that can be typed with a keyboard. More than 2 characters may not sound like much, but it is still very difficult to write them out by hand. If you make a typo during the period, you have to change the paper and try again.

In order to write this manuscript well, Chen Tianhong didn't even bother to save the manuscript for "Hello, Old Times" on the Internet for the past two days, but only ensured the daily update of thousands of words every day.

In the end, even Li Man called to inquire about the situation. Chen Tianhong explained helplessly that he was going to participate in the literature competition and had to prepare entries, which made Li Man feel relieved.

After Chen Tianhong's update speed slowed down, the Jincheng Literature Network's side became energetic instead.While promoting Ximingjue's new book "Origin of Youth" on the Internet, they secretly mocked Qingcheng Literature Network and Hongwen.

Luo Dong has been very happy these two days. He knew that Chen Tianhong was a student, and he thought that "Hello Old Times" stopped because of the author, Calvin. After all, he is a student, which is normal.

Ximingjue also posted a ruthless this time, regularly updating the [-]D stamp every day, and the quality is also high-quality, which made his fans cheer, so it is the Chinese New Year.

Lin Daozhi also opened separate comments on the two new books "Hello Old Times" and "Origin of Youth" on the forum. Currently, "Origin of Youth" has a higher score.

This is affected by the slow update, and there are more childhood descriptions in the early stage of "Hello Old Time", and the plot is not like "Origin of Youth" that sings all the way from the beginning, which is full of highlights.

Time ticked by, minute by minute, and finally arrived at the delivery time that Cao Bing said.Liu Yifei was also released from the office and came to the classroom to collect everyone's manuscripts.

When she received it from Chen Tianhong, Liu Yifei showed surprise on her face as she touched the thick document bag Chen Tianhong handed her.

The paper used to write manuscripts is the A4 paper uniformly issued by the Education Bureau. Each person will also be issued a document bag, and the written manuscript will be placed in the document bag, which can effectively prevent the manuscript from being lost during transportation.

However, it is not common to have a file bag as thick as Chen Tianhong's. For the proses and poems written by other students, basically one A4 paper is enough. For example, the prose written by Liu Yifei is only one and a half pages.

Of course, students who choose to write novels will use more paper, but not too much. Even though the competition stipulates that novels cannot exceed 5 words, no junior high school student can really write 5 words from previous years.

Usually it is a few thousand words, and it is rare to be able to write 1 words, and only in the following college student competitions can you see novels with 2 or even 5 words.

And Chen Tianhong wrote more than 2 pages of more than 20 characters, and this is the case where he used both positive and negative aspects.

Liu Yifei took a deep look at Chen Tianhong. She was in a hurry to deliver the manuscript to the teacher, so she didn't ask Chen Tianhong how many words he wrote, which was so thick.

"Tianhong, you said that if my science fiction novel can be selected by the Provincial Writers Association, then can I go sideways in school?"

Bai Jinxin didn't expect to be among the top [-] students in the country. In fact, only a few students of Zhenhua Middle School had been in the school history, and the ranking was also very low.

"It's daytime."

"What do you mean?" Bai Jinxin didn't understand.

"Dreaming during the day is called daydreaming, don't you know? You can choose to ask me that at night."

Chen Tianhong turned his face and answered seriously, but Bai Jinxin could still see the narrow look in his eyes.

"Damn, you kid is mocking me! Look at the trick, Invincible Hot Wheels!"

After the Zhenhua Middle School students’ entries were collected by the school, people from the Municipal Education Bureau immediately loaded them into the car and took them away. They had to send them to the Education Bureau building for preliminary screening. At this moment, there were already hundreds of teachers in the building Started reviewing.

Because there are too many students participating, it is impossible to send all the works directly to the City Writers Association.

For example, there are more than 2000 students in Zhenhua Middle School, and nearly one-third of the students participated in the competition.There are dozens of high schools like Zhenhua in Jinling City, plus junior high schools, there are tens of thousands of students participating in the competition.

If this was left in the previous life, this kind of competition would usually be screened by each school first, and only a few dozen manuscripts would be sent to the final selection.But because of the high degree of attention here, the local education bureau will collect and review them uniformly.

The teachers in charge of the review are not selected from middle and high schools, but are drawn from local universities, plus the Education Bureau's own people.Moreover, the works of these students will not be signed, only the school name and number, and which student school the number corresponds to will be reserved, but the reviewers will not know, this is also for the sake of fairness.

For example, Chen Tianhong's father, Chen Zhide, was also transferred by the Education Bureau this time. If he signed his name, he would definitely take care of him when he happened to see his son's article.Of course, passing does not mean that you will win an award. After all, there is still the test of the Writers Association, but as far as the competition system is concerned, it must be as fair as possible.

In fact, on the second day of that night, Chen Zhide was transferred away.This caused him to ignore his son, and originally wanted to guide Chen Tianhong, but unfortunately plans can never compare to changes.

In the Municipal Education Bureau building, the entire building was immersed in a tense atmosphere.Cars full of students' entries drove into the gate of the Education Bureau, and then the staff removed the manuscripts from the cars and sent them to the building to be handed over to the teachers in charge of review.

The transferred teachers were also divided into dozens of groups, because the workload was too heavy and the time was tight.During the few days of the audit, they lived and boarded in the Education Bureau.

In the end, they will select high-quality works from tens of thousands of works and send them to the Municipal Writers Association, and more than half of these works will be directly eliminated.

Chen Tianhong's father, Chen Zhide, was quickly reviewing the submitted manuscripts. He skillfully opened the portfolio and took out the papers inside.

"Heshan" is written on the manuscript, which is the title of the article, and there is a subject type beside it, which is written in lyrical prose.It will be written like this at the beginning of each manuscript, which is convenient for reviewers to know what subject and type you are writing.

Chen Zhide took a brief look, and directly put the manuscript in the big cardboard box on the right. The whole process took less than a minute.This big cardboard box is almost full of paper manuscripts.

After reading this one, Chen Zhide opened the next portfolio without stopping. This time it was still prose, but the type was narrative prose.Chen Zhide looked at this one for a while, and then he put the manuscript back into the portfolio, this time into the medium-sized cardboard box on the left.There are far fewer manuscripts in a medium carton than in a large carton.

There is no doubt that the ones placed in the big carton on the right are eliminated, and the ones in the left carton have passed the preliminary review.

During the initial review, the examiner will not look too carefully, because there is not enough time.Generally, you only look at your narrative ability, writing style, and whether the main idea of ​​the work is clear, etc. Like poetry and prose, which have a few tens of seconds, you can also judge whether it is good or bad.

Here, the car loaded with the competition works of Zhenhua Middle School has driven into the Education Bureau, and the staff came to carry the manuscripts of the works.Unfortunately, these works were not sent to Chen Zhide's review team, but to his neighbor.

Wen Zhihua is also a university teacher, but he has the title of associate professor, and he is somewhat famous in the teacher circle in Jinling City.

He is the review team leader of the 12th team, and the team leader does not have to review manuscripts like looking for a needle in a haystack like Chen Zhide and other team members.You only need to check again the ones that have been reviewed by the team members, and confirm the final submitted entries.

"Teachers have worked hard, and sent another school. Everyone hurry up to review. I just looked at the ones you have reviewed. The standard is still a bit low. Please improve it a little bit. It is not easy for students, but we have to pay attention to it. The Education Bureau is responsible, otherwise we will not only lose our face if we send some poor works to the Writers Association."

When Wen Zhihua saw the newly arrived manuscript, he stood up and told the team members that he was still not satisfied with the manuscript that had just been reviewed.

The team members all agreed that they really cared about the students, but the team leader was right and had to be responsible.

Then they raised the bar when they unpacked the newly arrived manuscripts.
