I read (no pop-up full text)

  "Is 'Ode to Life' really written by you?" Yang Jie asked.

  "If there's no one else here named Su Xichen, then it must be me who wrote it." Su Xichen stepped onto the stage without any pressure at all. The square below had gathered less than a thousand people, and Su Xichen was someone who had seen big scenes before, so how could he possibly be nervous?

  "Alright, I now announce that the first place winner of this event is Su Rixian's 'Ode to Life'. This time, there were many participants in their thirties and forties, but the second and first place winners are both fifteen or sixteen years old."

  "Kids these days are getting more and more formidable!"

  "Genius emerges in youth." "Talented people emerge in every generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years."

  Yang Jie then read aloud Su Shi's "Ode to the Red Cliffs" once.

  "After listening to it, opinions were divided. 'This "Ode to Life" feels less brilliant than the previous "If Life Cheats You".'"

  "I also think so, it should be 'If Life Cheats You' first, although this 'Ode to Life' is a bit longer."

  "Why is 'Ode to Life' first?"

  "Is there a black hand behind this? Professor Yang Jie knows that kid, so he gave him the first place."

  "I also feel this way, I think there isn't a third poem as excellent."

  A voice of doubt.

  Yang Jie opened his mouth to explain, "You may have listened to 'Ode to Life' and felt that there was a bit you didn't understand, and also felt that it wasn't as wonderful as the previous 'If Life Cheats You'. Do you all think so?"

  "Actually, when I first read 'Ode to Life', I was shocked. Appreciating a poem is not just about whether it sounds smooth or not. A smooth-sounding poem can be worthless, but the classic part of 'Ode to Life' lies in its rhythm."

  "This poem uses the most common four-line stanza in traditional regulated verse, with a mainly adopted pattern of iambic tetrameter, where an unstressed syllable is followed by a stressed syllable, and this pattern appears four times in each line. The poem has a neat rhythm, using an alternating rhyme scheme of a, a-b, c-d-c-d, e-f-e-f, with the foot rhymes also interwoven with single and double rhymes, where odd-numbered lines use double rhymes and even-numbered lines use single rhymes, such as in the first stanza, where lines 1 and 3 have numbers and slumbers, and lines 2 and 4 have dream and seem."

  "The double rhyme is elegant and clear, while the single rhyme is strong and powerful. The interplay between the two undoubtedly further enhances the poem's rhythmic sense of ups and downs..."

  Yang Jie started speaking with some professional terms, which made the people on stage confused. Finally, he concluded: "Just from the sound of this poem, 'Ode to Life' is already a classic. Even if it's published in newspapers, it's more than enough. This time, the first place is well-deserved without any water!" Yang Jie's evaluation of 'Ode to Life' was extremely high.

  As soon as Yang Jie heard this, the tone of voice on stage immediately changed. "I told you, 'Ode to Life' is absolutely classic, and how could Professor Yang Jie be biased?"

  "You just said that 'Ode to Life' is not as good as those few poems without a third place, didn't you?"

  "When did I ever say that? Only someone as uncultured as you wouldn't recognize the brilliance of 'Ode to Life'."

  “@#￥￥#￥#”

  ……

  In fact, there are no more than two digits of people who can really understand the rhythm of what Yang Jie said. However, such a large section of professional explanation gives people a feeling of high level, and precisely because they don't understand it themselves, it proves how powerful this "Ode to Life" is! This kind of thinking is common among most people.

  "This is why I was shocked by this "Ode to Life", it's so tight in terms of rhythm."

  "Ah, isn't that Su Xuechen, the author of 'The Grand Desolation'?"

  "That's right, it's him. I've seen him on TV before, exactly the same. No wonder he can write such a masterpiece as 'Ode to Life'. He's actually a famous genius writer!"

  "Is he Su Xichen, the genius of Huaxia who became a deputy director, screenwriter and author at such a young age?"

  ……

  "He's been recognized." Su Xichen's heart skipped a beat. These past few days, he had also participated in several variety shows with the crew to promote "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back", and he was somewhat of a news point, so there were quite a few scenes where his face was exposed. He wasn't a celebrity, so when going out, he didn't wear much makeup, but unexpectedly, he had been recognized, and in this situation, he needed to leave immediately.

  So he dragged Ma Jun and escaped.

  Yang Jie looked at Su Shicun's escaping back and said, "No wonder I felt like I had heard this name somewhere before. It turns out it was the Su Shicun that Zhou had been muttering about not long ago. Who would have thought that not only is he a talented writer, but also has such talent in modern poetry? The title of China's most talented person isn't an exaggeration after all."

  Su Shilei and Ma Jun escaped back to the hotel where the crew was staying, at 8 pm "Journey to the West" premiered.

  "Xiao Meng, wait up! Wait for me. Why are you running so fast? There's no ghost chasing you." Jian Kong was a big fatty and was panting heavily as he chased after him.

  "What's going on?" Meng Xi turned around and asked.

  "Today I'll treat you guys to a trip to the internet cafe to play games, how about it? I heard today there's double experience." Jian Kong said with a smile.

  "There's something more important today, I'm not going."

  "What could be more important for Little Meng than double experience in gaming? Are you still sleepy?" Jian Kong said.

  "You don't understand, today is the premiere of 'Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons', it starts at 8 o'clock sharp. I'm almost home now, around 7 o'clock, then I'll finish my homework in an hour, and only then can I watch it, so not a single minute can be delayed." Meng Xi said as he walked quickly back and forth.

  "Hey, hey, wait a minute, what's that 'Journey to the West in the Primordial Chaos' thing?" Jian Kong asked curiously.

  "You don't even know 'Journey to the West in the Primordial Chaos', forget it, I don't want to tell you." Meng Xi turned around and ran excitedly towards home.

  Bored Jian Kong also came to the internet cafe alone. Playing games is the right way, but no one was by his side to cooperate, Jian Kong really felt unaccustomed, so after playing for a while, he thought it was meaningless and quit the game.

  Staring blankly at the computer, "Seriously, it's not easy to get double experience, but Meng didn't show up today, how disappointing!" Jian Kong sighed and didn't know what to do. Suddenly, his stout body moved, and he grasped the mouse with incredible agility, humming "I want to see what's so good about it that Meng wouldn't even care about double experience. Ah, right, what was the name of that TV show Meng mentioned?"

  Jian Kong shook his head and thought for a moment "It seems to be called something like 'Journey to the West in the Desolate Wasteland'."

  Searched on search engines and found it anyway.

  "The name 'Journey to the West in the Primordial Chaos' is really arrogant, what's with the primordial chaos, it should be called 'Journey to the West in the Barbaric Wilderness' instead."

  The web has live streaming, but it's also at 8 o'clock, waiting until 8 o'clock to start live streaming.

  Jian Kong put on his headphones and stared at the screen, scrutinizing every detail. He started watching, intending to skip the intro by dragging the progress bar with his mouse, but found that he couldn't do so in a live stream. Jian Kong let out a frustrated sigh.

  "Forty-eight kinds of primordial chaos gave birth to Pangu, who was obstructed by 3,000 pre-heavenly demons when he opened up the sky and earth. The 3,000 pre-heavenly demons were all annihilated under the power of Pangu's axe...". The opening is the same as that of "Huanghuang", but the content and pictures are different.

  The scene that begins to appear is the battle between the 3,000 demons and Pangu. The 3,000 demons are all different, with some having ferocious faces, big mouths, and blood-filled basins, while others have three heads, six arms, and enormous bodies, and even more with one eye and one mouth that are strange and peculiar. In short, they come in all shapes and sizes. At the time when Pangu opened up the sky and earth, the 3,000 demons rushed towards him as if they had no regard for their lives.

  Blazing flames! Glaciers! Thunderclap! Whirlwind! And the three thousand demon gods made various moves, terrifying as such.

  At this scene, Jian Kong's eyes suddenly widened and his gaze became fixed.

  "I'm speechless, three thousand people can't even compare to one Pangu, what's the point? But it's also true that Pangu has to create the heavens and earth. If he were killed by the three thousand demon gods, who would create them? But that axe in Pangu's hand is really formidable, with one swing, dozens of pre-heavenly demon gods are reduced to nothingness. Is there an even more powerful weapon than this?"

  "Wait, isn't this supposed to be Journey to the West? How did it suddenly jump to Pangu opening up the sky and earth? This is a bit out of nowhere, but whatever, as long as it's enjoyable. But what's even weirder is that it started directly with Pangu, without any opening credits?"

  In the picture, three thousand demons were no match for Pangu. Those who died died, those who were injured were injured, and those who escaped escaped. In the end, Pangu transformed into the vast world of Honghuang, and then the scene shifted to reveal the words: "Volume 1: The Birth of the Stone Monkey!"

  "Ah, damn it!" Jian Kong couldn't hold back and directly cursed, drawing the attention of everyone in the internet cafe. Jian Kong apologized repeatedly.

  "What's going on? Pangu opened up the sky and earth directly to the birth of the stone monkey, how many skipped in between?"

  Let's continue reading. This Journey to the West is different from other versions, as it starts by introducing all four monkeys of chaos and then Sun Wukong emerges from a stone.

  And at this time, it was also handed over. It was a piece of colorful stone left by Nüwa when she mended the sky. After accumulating day and night, under the impact of spiritual energy, life was born.

  At the same time, it also shows the appearance of Nüwa repairing the sky.

  At that time, the world was flooded with water, Gonggong was angry and touched Mount Buzhou. It's very strange for one person to knock down a mountain.

  However, in this scene, it's not strange at all. The reason is that Gonggong in the picture is simply a monster, with a python head and human body, wearing black scales, stepping on a black dragon, and wrapping his hands around a green python. He doesn't count as a human being at all. In fact, Gonggong, the ancestor of the Wu tribe, was not a human being to begin with, but Jian Kong didn't know that.

  "So the legendary Gonggong is actually this ugly? It's completely a monster, but thinking about it, if it wasn't a monster, how could it have smashed Mount Buzhou in half?"

  The mountain of Bu Zhou collapsed, and the floodwaters surged forward. This scene caused Jian Kong to involuntarily take in a breath of cold air. The emotions in his heart couldn't be described with just one word - shocking!!!

  Then came Nüwa smelting and repairing the sky with five-coloured stones.

  Generally, TV dramas involving Nüwa mending the sky would end like this, and Jian Kong thought so too. However, this is Su Rui Chen's adaptation of the Honghuang mythology, how could it possibly end like this?

  In the picture, Nüwa mends the sky. Although the flood is gone, because the pillars of heaven and earth are not complete, Mount Buzhou was knocked down by Gonggong, causing instability in all directions, with wind and thunder everywhere.

  Nüwa beheaded the Xuanwu turtle and used its legs as support. The scene also shows Nüwa fighting with the Xuanwu turtle, although it only lasts for a few seconds, it is extremely classic.

  "This battle is so cool! By the way, what's that thing Nüwa is holding? An embroidered ball, throwing an embroidered ball?"

  If Jian Kong had read the book "Hong Huang", he would have known that the embroidered ball in Nüwa's hand was one of the pre-heavenly treasures given by Hong Jun in Zixiao Palace, the red embroidered ball. However, although he didn't know what it was, Jian Kong found it very interesting to watch.

  One red silk ball fell down, what a catastrophic event!!

  Then, in the picture, Nuwa fixed the four directions. Next, she fixed the Four Sacred Animals to guard the four directions: the Azure Dragon guarded the East, the White Tiger guarded the West, the Vermilion Bird guarded the South, and the Black Tortoise guarded the North. The four great sacred animals separately guarded the four directions.

  Jian Kong is now staring blankly, muttering to himself "So that's how it was, so that's how it was. The Four Sacred Beasts were actually sealed by Nüwa to stabilize the four directions. I thought the Four Great Sacred Beasts were the most powerful existence, but it turns out they were just for stabilizing the four directions."

  It's still going on, Jian Kong has long lost the sight of scrutiny, but is looking at it seriously. Jian Kong has also seen the old version of "Journey to the West", but even so, he still looks forward to the next plot, because the story brought out in the plot is completely what Jian Kong has never seen before, and it's not an exaggeration to describe it as being infatuated.
