Chapter 469 Who is the peak at the end of calligraphy!

 Qizhou Weishu platform.

There are two hotly discussed topics today. One is that Lin Zhibai has not broadcast live in the past two days, and the other is the list of contestants for each major event in this Qi Chu Wen Dou.

 Especially the latter.

 The topic is extremely popular!

 After all, tomorrow is the duel between Qi and Chu, and the atmosphere is very similar to the Asian Games in the previous life. Countless people from Qi and Chu are paying close attention!

“The list should be out tonight, right?”

“There will definitely be Teacher Li Bai this year. His level of couplets and Go is really strong. He must be in charge of these two projects!”

“Xia Xinyi should also be in the poem or phrase.”

“Well, actually Xia Xinyi’s guqin level is pretty good, but it’s a pity that non-masters are not qualified to compete in a competition of this level.”

“Shen Jialiang should also be on the list, right?”

 “That’s not necessarily true. Lao Shen suffered a terrible defeat last year.”

“Isn’t that because Chuzhou showed off and found strong foreign aid?”

“What I wonder about is that the foreign players Chuzhou has found are so strong. We were crushed last year, and it will be difficult to win this year. After all, those are the same people who compete every year.”

 “Unless we also find foreign aid!”

“I feel that there is a high probability that we will find foreign aid this year. After all, it is really difficult without foreign aid. I just don’t know what level of foreign aid we will find.”

  And it’s under discussion.

The lists have finally been announced one after another!

 First is calligraphy, there are six people in total, five are official contestants, and the remaining one is a substitute to prevent unexpected situations.

 “Hiss!”

Countless Qizhou netizens were surprised and happy when they saw a name on the calligraphy group’s entry list!

 “Fuck!”

"Ha ha ha ha!"

 “Look who this is!?”

“Lin Zhibai, isn’t this the name of the richest man! He actually participated in Qi Chuwendou’s calligraphy project!”

 “Could it be the same name?”

“The calligraphy project, Lin Zhibai, cannot have the same name. Besides, the richest man has not been live broadcasting for the past two days. Now the reason has been found. He has gone to Chuzhou!”

"I see!"

“It’s so funny, so the richest man is our foreign aid, right? This foreign aid is so powerful! Who can compete with him in calligraphy?”

 “Let’s see who is involved in the next few projects.”

 “I wipe it!”

　With the exclamations of netizens!

 The second project has been announced!

This time it was the Guqin group, and netizens were shocked to see that Lin Zhibai’s name was still among them!

 “So the richest man participated in more than one project?”

“I don’t doubt his calligraphy, but is the richest man’s guqin skills good?”

“Master level, do you think it’s possible? On the day of the Mid-Autumn Poetry Competition, the richest man’s guqin skills were recognized by everyone!”

“The question is, who can participate in the Qi Chu Wen Du, who is not already a master?”

"Compared with ordinary people, such as Xia Xinyi, an amateur with good guqin skills, the richest man will definitely be crushed. But if the richest man meets other masters, his chances of winning will be low."

 “It doesn’t matter, calligraphy is a sure way to be rich anyway!”

 “Forget about the guqin calligraphy for now, please look at the list of poetry groups!”

 “Oh my god! Still the richest man!?”

The lists of the two poetry projects were announced at the same time, and netizens once again found Lin Zhibai’s name!

"this…"

 “There seems to be nothing wrong?”

“I can’t say much about the guqin, but when it comes to poetry, the richest man can easily master it. He is the most talented person in Qinzhou!”

“In terms of poetry, it’s not an exaggeration to say that the richest man is the first person in Qinzhou, right?”

 “Nothing wrong!”

"Very much agree!"

“Well, I can understand calligraphy, I can also accept poetry, and Guqin can barely make sense, but what’s going on with this Go game?”

 It turned out to be at this time.

 The list of Go team is out.

Lin Zhibai’s name appeared again!

“I’ve never heard that the richest man can play Go. Why did he even sign up for this project?”

“Do you have any friends in Qinzhou? Did the richest man show any skills in Go when he was in Qinzhou?”

“I’m from Qinzhou, and Bai Di never mentioned that he knew how to play Go!”

 “Poof!”

 “Then what name did he give?”

“Those participating in this competition are all Go masters!”

“It is said that the richest man is a full-level human being. Maybe he is also a Go master?”

"is it possible?"

 “It’s impossible for others, but it’s entirely possible for the richest man!”

“So the richest man applied for five projects!?”

“That’s not necessarily true. Only five have come out now, and there are still two that haven’t come out yet.”

"Out!"

"I fainted!"

 “And him!”

 Just in various discussions.

 The lists of two projects, painting and couplets, are also out!

 Seeing Lin Zhibai’s name listed, all netizens were numb!

This means that Lin Zhibai has applied for all the projects that Qi Chuwendou can apply for!

Qi Chuwen Dou has been held for nine years, and this year is the tenth year, but there has never been a situation where someone applied for all the projects!

Even if someone really wanted to do this, the superiors would not agree.

But Lin Zhibai actually reported everything. The key is that Hu Wei and Shi Yun actually agreed. How much do they trust Lin Zhibai?

 Co-author Qizhou only invited Lin Zhibai as a foreign aid this year—

Then use one foreign aid, Lin Zhibai, as seven foreign aids!

 For a while, netizens didn’t know what to say.

 There are certain projects that everyone knows about Lin Zhibai, such as poetry, calligraphy, and couplets.

 As for some projects, Qizhou people have a question mark in their hearts.

For example, is Lin Zhibai’s guqin level really good enough compared to other masters?

For example, Lin Zhibai’s painting level, although Shi Yun said he was at the level of a master, has he just reached the threshold of a master?

 After all, Lin Zhibai was too young.

As for the Go project, Qizhou netizens are most upset because Lin Zhibai has not even shown his Go skills to the outside world once!

 The good news now is: Lin Zhibai is Qizhou’s foreign aid!

 The bad news is: Lin Zhibai applied for seven projects by himself!

As if there was really no other foreign aid available in the Qizhou literary world, they just grabbed Lin Zhibai, the Qinzhou sheep, and tried their best to pluck the wool.     But generally speaking, this situation is acceptable to everyone.

 Because Lin Zhibai can at least guarantee:

  In the four categories of poetry, couplets and even calligraphy, he really hopes to help Qizhou win the gold medal!

 In other words:

These seven projects, even if Lin Zhibai can only help Qizhou win two gold medals in the end, everyone will recognize it!

 Even if it is a gold medal, everyone reluctantly accepts it.

But if Lin Zhibai couldn't help Qizhou get a gold medal, he would definitely be criticized for signing up for seven projects by himself!

Even the perfect image he worked so hard to build in Qizhou will be damaged!

Of course, before the results come out, everyone can only bite the bullet and wait to see his performance.

 After all, the list has been announced, and this is the situation. Even if some people want to question Lin Zhibai on certain items, they will have to do so after the game is over.

 …

 In fact, Qizhou’s netizens were confused after reading the list of contestants.

When the media reprinted the list report, netizens in Chuzhou were dumbfounded after reading it.

 “Nani? Am I out of my mind?”

“Among the projects announced by Qizhou, why is there a person named Lin Zhibai in each project?”

“I also noticed that Lin Zhibai applied for seven projects by himself. This is too outrageous. Is there such an all-powerful person in this world?”

“The name Lin Zhibai seems familiar to me.”

"This person is from Qinzhou. Wen Dou is working as a foreign aid for Qizhou this time. It is normal for you to think he is familiar. Anyone who has watched the live broadcast of this year's charity dinner should have an impression of him. After all, his "Lanting Preface" was auctioned It fetched a sky-high price and is also known as the best cursive script in the world!"

 “It turns out to be him, I wonder why he looks so familiar!”

“In this year’s calligraphy project, Lin Zhibai’s competitiveness is terrifying!”

“It doesn’t matter, Lin Zhibai’s running script is the best in the world, but we have teacher Xiao Lin Dazhu, who is known as the best regular script in the world!”

"It feels so outrageous no matter how you think about it. The seven events have very little connection with each other. It's like a sports meeting. A certain athlete signed up for swimming, running, gymnastics, etc. at the same time. It's too exaggerated. Could it be that Qizhou made a mistake? Already?"

“That’s right, Lin Zhibai participated in a variety show in Qizhou and is known as a full-level human being!”

“Haha, you also know that it’s a variety show, it’s all scripted, it’s not enough to explain anything.”

 Can’t understand.

 All Chuzhou netizens found it incomprehensible.

However, this time because Lin Zhibai applied for seven projects by himself, his popularity in Chuzhou suddenly increased!

Even many Chuzhou media outlets began to publish news introducing Lin Zhibai’s identity information.

For example, he is the noble son of Qinzhou Shinhwa Group, and he is also the most popular star in Qinzhou, and he is also the most popular star in Qizhou recently, and has just embarked on the road to intercontinental superstar, etc...

 Although it is just some text introduction, it still sounds quite legendary.

 For a while, some people from Chuzhou actually became Lin Zhibai’s fans, of course they just shouted out verbally.

After all, I don’t know this person very well, but I just feel that Lin Zhibai is very similar to the male protagonist of the novel. He is a noble son from a plutocratic family. He has good business ability and is also an intercontinental superstar. He has good looks and artistic talent that far exceed the average person. Also extremely high…

at the same time.

Lin Zhibai’s photos, of course, appear frequently on the Chuzhou Internet.

Even before developing in Chuzhou, Lin Zhibai has built a good reputation foundation with this wave.

However, for the contestants of various major projects in the Chuzhou literary world, Lin Zhibai is a very special name.

　Some people are happy and some are sad.

 Those who rejoice…

For example, the contestants in the Go group did not believe how much Lin Zhibai, who was unknown in the Go world, could achieve such great achievements in Go!

Another example is the contestants in the Guqin group. They did some research and had seen Lin Zhibai perform Guqin at the Qizhou Mid-Autumn Poetry Conference.

It is indeed a master level.

 But this is normal. Isn’t the minimum threshold for this competition a master?

If you are not a master, you can only become a clown even if you participate in the competition.

Besides, as the old saying goes, there are differences between masters. Lin Zhibai's guqin level is obviously just after he became a master.

 At this level, veteran masters have nothing to fear!

Similarly, people from the Chuzhou Painting Group also studied the Mid-Autumn Night Poetry Club and saw Lin Zhibai’s painting of shrimps.

The conclusion is:



 At this level, in a competition, you can probably only be used as cannon fodder, and you don’t know where the opponent will find the courage to participate.

 Do you really think that becoming a master means you are invincible?

 Or is it that you didn’t intend to win in the first place, but just to brush up on your qualifications and certification?

 After all, this competition is very valuable. Even if you just participate and don't win the prize, it at least shows that this person has a master level in this field.

“The possibility of brushing up on qualifications is not low.”

 “He is a big star after all.”

 Some people in the Chuzhou painting group laughed and discussed.

 But the people in the Chuzhou Poetry Group were obviously a bit unable to laugh, and even felt a bit like facing a formidable enemy.

 Fortunately, there is a foreign aid dad!

 The most impressive one is definitely the calligraphy group!

 Everyone in the Chuzhou calligraphy group was frightened, and their legs became weak when they saw the name Lin Zhibai.

 Can’t beat it!

 Can't beat it at all!

Only Xiaolin Dazhu could remain calm, but panic flashed in his eyes.

Yes.

Xiaolin Dazhu was scared.

 There is only one calligrapher in the world who can scare Xiaolin Dazhu.

The man's name is Zhuge Qiuliang.

That's right, it's the Zhongzhou calligraphy master Zhuge Qiuliang who was slapped in the face by Lin Zhibai with "Lanting Preface" at this year's charity dinner!

However, even Zhuge Qiuliang, whom he was most afraid of, was slapped hard in the face by Lin Zhibai.

Then how can I be Lin Zhibai’s opponent?

Taking a deep breath, Xiaolin Dazhu suddenly took out his mobile phone and made a call.

 “Xiao Lin?”

“Jun Qiu Liang, the annual Qi Chu Wen Dou Conference is about to begin again. This year I would like to invite you to participate with me!”

"You know, I have no interest in competing against weaklings. In a competition of that level, Xiaolin, you can compete with me. But if we two want to compete, why bother relying on that competition? Just take the time to meet."

“It’s like this, Mr. Qiu Liang, there is a contestant in Qizhou that you must be very interested in.”

"who?"

 “Lin Zhibai.”

 There was sudden silence on the other end of the phone.

But Xiaolin Dazhu clearly heard that the other party's breathing was particularly heavy.

　　It seems that Lin Zhibai is a very special name, which makes the other party have a special reaction instantly.

 A moment later.

Zhuge Qiuliang on the other end of the phone said: "His cursive calligraphy is the best in the world, and I am no match for him."

Xiaolin Dazhu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. This competition is more than just running calligraphy. If you are willing, I will add you to the substitute list, and then let a certain Chuzhou calligraphy team player take your place in the competition on the grounds of physical discomfort."

"Ok, deal!"

Zhuge Qiuliang’s voice is sonorous and powerful!

Xiao Lin Dazhu smiled after hanging up the phone.

"Qiu Liangjun was just crushed by Lin Zhibai in running script. His overall level has always been the best in Blue Star. Qi Chuwen Dou can only rely on him to compete with Lin Zhibai head-on. He will definitely agree - because he wants revenge. ! Can’t compare to running script? You can compare to other cursive scripts, regular scripts...the strength of calligraphy should be considered comprehensively.”

Zhuge Qiuliang fights Lin Zhibai again!

 This time the competition is not just about running script!

 In other words, this year’s Qi Chu Wen Duo will truly determine who is the best calligrapher in the world!

Once the news is released, I’m afraid calligraphers all over the world will pay attention, right?

  After all, this is the real pinnacle battle of calligraphy!
