This host is too professional

Chapter 340 Li Bai’s farewell poem

Recently, due to the Starlight Award, the popularity of "The Legend of Tang Dynasty Poetry and Immortals" has dropped a lot.

At this sensitive time, the Ancient Literature Association suddenly made an official announcement, which caused an uproar in the literary world.

Ye Luo's new book.

Especially since the new book is called "The Legend of Poetry and Immortals of the Tang Dynasty", this name is of great significance.

It has been hotly discussed among fans before, but there has been no official news. This will be considered a complete confirmation.

Ye Luo's fans from all walks of life and readers in the literary world were all excited in an instant.

"Teacher Ye finally has a new work!"

"Is it really "The Legend of the Immortals of the Tang Dynasty"? The previous rumors are actually true?"

"Teacher Ye's new book has a very big picture."

"It seems to be really groundless. This book has been widely circulated before, but I didn't expect it to actually come out."

"look forward to!"

"Is this the fifth book in the Ye Tang series?"

"Yes, if all the previous rumors are true, then the gold content of this book is too high."

"Don't worry about whether the news is true or false. Just by looking at the title, you can know how valuable this book is."

"Not necessarily. Although I am a fan of Mr. Ye, to be honest, the name Shixian is not that easy to write."

"The Ancient Literature Association dares to release it, which means that this book must have been studied in detail by them. Otherwise, based on their behavior, we probably won't be able to read this book."

"That's not the case. How can the Classical Literature Association have such great power? Do you really think that the Classical Literature Association can control Teacher Ye's books? Isn't it funny? Teacher Ye asked them to publish it, but they dare not to publish it?"

"Anyway, the Ancient Literature Association has done something good this time."

“Support Teacher Ye’s new book!”

"It must be supported!"

Fans were very excited, and even the Classical Literature Association, which has been criticized recently, has regained a lot of favorability with this official announcement.

Of course, while being excited, everyone also realized that this new book could also participate in this Starlight Award.

However, many people subconsciously ignore this.I think it’s of little significance to list new books on the charts.

After all, the Starlight Awards have already been announced, and which of the works on the list doesn’t have tens of thousands of fans?A new book, no matter how well written it is, still needs time to gather fans, and it is impossible to surpass these old books as soon as it is released.

If these old books were the work of others, it might still be possible.With Ye Luo's huge influence in the literary world and the quality of the new book itself, it is very possible to overtake him in one fell swoop.

But these old books on the list are all Ye Luo's works. Ye Luo's own traffic blessing is actually of little significance to this year's Starlight List voting.

Because all the books on this list are his.

Those who voted were either fans of Ye Luo or loyal readers of these books, which was essentially a carrot meeting.

Everyone in the New Literature Association had also thought of this, so they were not too worried at this time.

In fact, Shao Xinzhong couldn't help but sigh: "Thanks to this Starlight Award, otherwise how can we deal with Teacher Ye's "The Legend of Poetry"?"

Zhang Rumeng also said with a smile: "Indeed, although we are not sure yet whether Teacher Ye's new book will be successful. But when our "The Biography of Lu Xun" wins the gold medal of the Starlight Award, whether "The Biography of Shi Shixian" will be successful or not will have a big impact on our future." The impact is not that big anymore.”

"Well, the most popular thing in the literary world right now is the Starlight Award."

"What you are saying is not correct. The Classical Prose Association has just released the news, and it has already caused a stir on the Internet. Just look at it, in less than two days, the popularity of "The Legend of the Poetry of the Tang Dynasty" will return to the level it was a while ago, and even Catch up on the Starlight Awards buzz.”

"Even if we catch up, it doesn't matter. In any case, readers' attention must have been distracted. Moreover, once our "The Biography of Lu Xun" wins the gold medal, the influence of our modern literature will definitely increase significantly. By then, even if "The Legend of Immortals" becomes a hit, we won't be as bad as we thought before."

"That's true."

"How are the votes now?"

"Don't worry, we will be number one."

"There are already hundreds of thousands of votes for No. 2."

Upon hearing this, everyone put their hearts in their stomachs.

Although this gap is not as big as imagined, it is definitely not something that can be easily caught up.

However, at this time, old Professor Yang Huan sneered twice inappropriately, "Haha, you are reading our "Biography of Lu Xun" one by one. Do you really think that "The Biography of Lu Xun" was written by you? You don't seem to be ashamed." Yang Huan said this directly to Zhang Rumeng, his face turning blue and white in anger.

After squeezing Zhang Rumeng, Mr. Yang said again: "Don't be so blindly optimistic, everyone. All the meetings you held before were in vain? That's the Poet of the Tang Dynasty! If this book really becomes a book, do you think a Starlight Award is worth it? what?"

Zhang Rumeng said coldly: "The Starlight Award is the most valuable award in the literary world, why doesn't it mean something?"

"Haha, it is indeed the most valuable." Mr. Yang also said with a sneer, "But, in front of the Poet of the Tang Dynasty, is this award enough? This is a new book, and there is a high probability that it will not participate in this year's selection, but do you think this How influential can the Starlight Award be?"

Mr. Yang's words made Zhang Rumeng frown slightly, and everyone else was also slightly silent.

Although his words were unpleasant, they were facts that they could hardly refute.

Compared with the Wenquxing Award and the Poetry Fair of the Tang Dynasty, they previously thought that the two should be able to keep pace with each other.But after listening to what Professor Yang Huan said, I felt that the Starlight Award was not enough.

"Anything is better than nothing." Zhang Rumeng said indifferently, "Chairman, our preparations for "The Legend of the Immortals of the Tang Dynasty" must continue. However, matters regarding the Starlight Award must not be neglected."

"Yes, I know." Shao Xinzhong nodded. His thoughts were the same as Zhang Rumeng's.

In any case, judging from the current situation, the gold medal of this year's Starlight Awards will most likely go to "The Biography of Mr. Lu Xun".

When "The Biography of Poems of the Tang Dynasty" was released, "The Biography of Mr. Lu Xun" won the Wenquxing Gold Award. How can I say this? It is also the only means of resistance in the modern literary world!
Therefore, for the New Literature Association, they are bound to win the gold medal!
……

Facts have proved that the official announcement of the Ancient Literature Association has not affected the fierce competition for the star list.

Everyone is basically paying attention to the dynamics of the Classical Literature Association on one hand, and on the other hand, they are actively competing for rankings.

It can be said that there is no delay in both.

At this time, the Classical Prose Association has basically given up on the Starlight Award. Originally, they wanted to make a desperate counterattack with "The Legend of Poems of the Tang Dynasty".

But after a careful discussion, we finally decided we couldn’t take the risk.

After all, it is a new book, and it will be officially released in three days. At that time, the star list has been open for several days, so joining in the middle is really a disadvantage.

If the Classical Literature Association stands up to call for voting, but in the end they fail to win "The Biography of Lu Xun", the impact on them will be huge.

Therefore, almost all the energy of the Classical Literature Association is currently focused on promoting new books.

At noon on the day of the official announcement, the Ancient Literature Society, as always, arranged the homepage of its official website to look like a new book release.

On the entire homepage, on the right side is an imaginary picture of Li Bai—raising a glass and drinking heavily, looking wild and uninhibited. They asked people from the Art Association to work overtime based on the poem "The Wine Will Enter".

On the left side, in addition to the five words "The Legend of the Immortals of the Tang Dynasty" handwritten by the vice-president of the Calligraphy Association, there are two lines of small characters next to them.

"When the immortal is banished, his pen will shine forever. When Taibai comes to earth, he will be drunk and splendid for eternity."

This couplet can be said to place the poet Li Bai at the top of the poetry world!

And this, the Classical Literature Association still feels is not enough.

After they read the ten poems sent by Ye Luo, they completely admired the Poet of the Tang Dynasty.

In particular, many people stayed up all night after returning home. They quickly looked at the electronic version of the manuscript and became even more excited after seeing the many poems in it.

Although the book "The Legend of Poems of the Tang Dynasty" is too detailed, some plots seem a bit redundant in their opinion.But these things, compared with the poems written by Li Bai, seem to be insignificant flaws.

At noon, after changing the background of the homepage of the official website, the Classical Literature Association once again released a blockbuster message.

"Wonderful excerpts from "The Legend of Poetry and Immortals of the Tang Dynasty"."

Since "The Legend of the Poetry of the Tang Dynasty", the Ancient Chinese Prose Association has never conducted promotional activities to reveal the contents of the book. This is one of the reasons why many fans complain about the Ancient Chinese Prose Association.

But this time, the Classical Literature Association was unexpectedly generous.

In one breath, three poems were released!Includes previous background introduction.

The fans were shocked.

"Is the Ancient Literature Association changing its gender?"

"Why did you suddenly become so generous when you were so fussy before?"

"Haha, you must be panicking, right?"

"Whatever, we're not going to their Ancient Literature Association anyway. We mainly want to read Teacher Ye's new book." "That's right, that's right."

It's still the same as before. The huge book title on the home page is actually a link. Once you click on it, you can see the excerpt released by the Classical Literature Association.

The first poem is "Qing Ping Le": "...It should be the heavenly immortal who is so drunk that he smashes the white clouds into pieces."

The second song is "Yellow Crane Tower Sends Meng Haoran to Guangling": "...the shadow of the lone sail in the distance is gone in the blue sky, and only the Yangtze River can be seen flowing in the sky."

The third song is "Staying at the Mountain Temple Overnight"

"A dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and you can pick stars with your hands."

"Don't dare to speak loudly, for fear of frightening the heavenly beings."

These three poems were not among the ten given by Ye Luo last night.

The last song was read by Professor Liu Ying himself in the book.

At this time, using these three poems as the beginning of the promotional content not only demonstrates the level of poetic immortality, but also leaves room for the follow-up.

To be honest, these three or three poems are definitely among the most popular in Li Bai's collection of works.If the name of Shixian hadn't been too dazzling and raised the expectations of the Classical Literature Association too high, then these three poems would definitely make them worship him once they came out.

Of course, readers won't think so much.

The vast majority of people just love poetry and are not engaged in poetry research, and they don’t have so many twists and turns in their hearts.

After reading the background introduction, countless readers suddenly felt their eyes light up when they saw these three poems.

"It must be that the immortal was so drunk that he crushed the white clouds into pieces. The writing is so elegant! It turns out that you can write about snow like this, how awesome!"

"With this poem, I feel like my poetic style comes out right away."

"The third song feels more like an immortal. He dare not speak loudly for fear of frightening the gods. This imagination is really convincing."

"What a poem!"

"But I am uneducated, and I can take over the world with just one word of awesomeness."

"Any more? Just these three."

"It would be great if the Dog Association can release three songs."

"Don't expect too much from them."

"I'm looking forward to Teacher Ye's new book launch now!"

“I will be there when the time comes!”

"No one can compete with me for the first edition of my book!"

Originally, readers had long been accustomed to the ancient literature association's search-and-search approach, so they thought it would be good if he could release three poems.

However, this time the Ancient Literature Association was really generous.

In the evening, they actually played three more songs!
Readers were shocked.

"Holy shit, has the account of the Classical Literature Association been hacked?"

"Whatever, just read it first and then talk. I'm afraid they will withdraw it later."

"Makes sense!"

Immediately, countless people poured into the official website of the Ancient Literature Association, causing the official website to freeze for a while.

Fortunately, there was no crash.

""Journey to China"

Lanling wine tulips, jade bowls filled with amber light.

But to make the host drunk, I don't know where is another land. "

"Wonderfully written!"

"It's such a good saying that I don't know where I am in a foreign country!"

"After reading it, I feel like my ideas are much clearer."

"It's really cool and bold, and enjoyable."

"I'm going to watch the next song, bye."

……

""Sending a Friend"

Qingshan Hengbei Guo, Baishui around the east city.

Say goodbye in here, then fight in the lonely and long way.

Fuyun wandering, the old love of the setting sun.

Waving from here, Xiao Xiaoban Ma Ming. "

"It's also a farewell poem, but the artistic conception of this poem is completely different from the previous poem "Farewell to Meng Haoran at Guangling from the Yellow Crane Tower"."

"Yes, the previous poem "Farewell to Meng Haoran" is full of poetry, as if neither of them cares about the separation. But in this poem, I really feel Li Bai's reluctance."

"It turns out that Li Bai, who is so chic and heroic, also has such a melancholy side."

"It's the same theme, both farewell. How can Li Bai write two feelings? Is this the Immortal of Poetry?"

"Uh, how did you see so many things? That's awesome!"

"You can study it slowly by yourself. I'm going to watch the next one."

……

"Farewell at the Jingmen Gate"

Outside the Jingmen Gate, come from Chu Kingdom.

The mountains follow Hirano, and the river flows into the great wasteland.

Flying under the moon, Yunsheng Jiehai Tower.

Still pity the water in my hometown, send off the boat for thousands of miles. "

"Another farewell poem?"

"Fuck me, this farewell poem, why does it feel different again?"

"When "Farewell to Meng Haoran", Li Bai felt calm and free in his heart. In the poem "Farewell to a Friend", Li Bai's melancholy can clearly be felt. But in this poem now, the whole poem is filled with a sense of vicissitudes of life. This, this How on earth is it done?”

"The mountains end with the plains, and the rivers flow into the wilderness. I really see all the vicissitudes of the world."

"Poetic Immortal! You really write poetry to the point where you want to do whatever you want."

"These poems seem to have Li Bai's style, but they all have an ethereal feeling of uncertainty."

"Poetic Immortal, Poetic Immortal, what stands out is the word "immortal", which is ethereal and dreamy."

"Three farewell poems, describing three moods and feelings, are really not something other poets can write."

"I feel that Li Bai is really superior to Liu Yuxi and the others."

"Yeah, I feel the same way."

"Really? These are just a few poems? It would be a bit outrageous to brag about it now."

"Although I am also a fan of Teacher Ye, we can't brag about it."

Immediately afterwards, the Ancient Literature Association released three more poems the next day.

Once again caused an uproar in the literary world.

It wasn't until the third day that there was no movement from the Ancient Literature Association.

Because, this day is the official release date of "The Legend of the Immortals of the Tang Dynasty"!
