Did Song Chan win any awards in her previous life?
Wen Ying thought seriously for a while and found that she had no memory at all.
At that time, she was too busy taking care of herself. She failed in the high school entrance examination, Chen Li got divorced, and the academic pressure after entering the provincial key school made Wen Ying disgraced and unable to care about other people's affairs.
Because of her low self-esteem, Wen Ying didn't think she could participate in the New Concept Essay Contest. She didn't even have the courage to send in the registration form, let alone pay attention to who was participating in the school and who was winning.
Many people have an escape mentality. They want to do something but dare not do it. They might as well just bury their heads in the sand like an ostrich and not pay attention to it, so there is no need to feel sad.
In the provincial key areas, there are too many students participating in various competitions, and there are also many students who are eligible for recommendation. Winning any competition will only attract temporary attention.
In fact, Wen Ying never participated in any competition during her three years of high school. Now that she thinks about it, it seems like she went to a fake high school and wasted such a good platform as a provincial key point!
A popular figure in school like Song Chan and Wen Ying are like people from two different worlds.
She never thought that one day she would sit with Song Chan waiting to receive the award.
Wen Ying wanted to laugh when she thought of this.
Human beings, defeating others is a win, defeating oneself is still a win.
Chen Ru glared at her: You still have the nerve to smile!
Wen Ying felt her mother's murderous eyes and immediately sat upright.
The editor-in-chief of "Sprouting" magazine spoke on the stage, and the judges spoke, talked about the history of the New Concept Essay Contest, and looked forward to the future before entering the key stage.
Because of the influence the New Concept Essay Contest has accumulated over the years, there were many reporters present.
The second prize was announced first.
There was neither Song Chan nor Wen Ying for the second prize.
Of course, Song Chan was not in a hurry at all. Looking from the back, the Song family father and daughter were sitting as calmly as bells, which was probably a sign of confidence.
Wen Ying was surprised at first.
She thought she could beat the contestants in Group B in terms of the depth of her articles. Not to mention winning the first prize, she actually couldn’t even win the second prize?
impossible!
Wen Ying still had some confidence, and she immediately became happy: If she was not included in the second prize, she would definitely be included in the first prize!
Wen Ying straightened her back immediately.
Chen Ru looked over sideways, thinking that Wen Ying would be disappointed, but she didn't expect that Wen Ying had a look of expectation on her face. Chen Ru was so angry that she felt dizzy.
——This girl thinks she can win the first prize?
If Wu Chunqin helped, Chen Ru would dare to think this way.
But Wu Chunqin has already been rejected.
I originally thought that having a second prize would be a consolation, but I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t even get a second prize.
Chen Ru was thinking this in her mind, as the second prize contestants had already taken the stage to take photos and began to announce the first prize winner.
"Group A, Song Chan."
Sure enough, there is Song Chan!
Song Chan stood up from her seat, and the father and daughter hugged each other before going on stage to receive the award.
For some reason, Song Chan looked back subconsciously.
Wen Ying arrived late and sat in the back row diagonally opposite the Song family's father and daughter.
There is no Wen Ying for the second prize, and there will be no first prize either.
With a small round face, he sat there stupidly, his face full of expectation.
Song Chan couldn't help but smile: Blind confidence can really make people laugh.
Group A consists of high school sophomores and seniors, and each first prize represents admission to a prestigious school with reduced scores.
Except for students who are particularly good at partial subjects, for anyone like Song Chan who can achieve first-class results, the first-class certificate in his hand is a ticket to a prestigious school.
In the college entrance examination, one more point can defeat many candidates from the same province. Suddenly, I have the advantage of dropping several points. How can I not be happy and excited?
Among them, there are of course winners like Song Chan who have "family origins", but there are also winners who have nothing to do with the literary world. In any competition or competition, there are strong people who rely on talent and ability to break through.
After all, being pregnant is like being pregnant, it’s hard to hide it!
The winners of Group A have been announced, and it’s finally Group B’s turn.
"...Group B, Wen Ying."
The first name is Wen Ying!
Song Chan couldn't believe it, and Chen Ru was also stunned.
Wen Ying laughed and stood up, "Mom, I'm going to the stage to receive the award."
Chen Ru nodded slowly, her reaction was very slow.
When Wen Ying came on stage, Song Chan's father turned to look at Chen Ru.
Song Chan mentioned Wen Ying, a junior girl from the same school.
Compared with Song Chan, Wen Ying has no advantage. She didn't expect that she would win the award this time.
Song's father felt that he had underestimated Wen Ying's family. Although there was no number one person named Wen in the literary circle of Rongcheng, he didn't know if they had any powerful relatives or friends.
Father Song smiled at Chen Ru, "The two children are classmates, and now they are winning awards together. What a coincidence. When we return to Chengdu, we can let them strengthen their relationship."
Chen Ru hadn't come to her senses yet, she could only agree with whatever Father Song said.
Song's father was two points proud and three points self-effacing. He introduced Song Chan's "literary achievements" and asked in a low voice what works Wen Ying had published. Chen Ru only knew that Wen Ying often typed on the computer keyboard and was very interested in Wen Ying's works.
I don’t know anything about my pen name, so how can I answer Song’s father?
Chen Ru was extremely embarrassed. She said that Wen Ying usually loved reading extracurricular books, but had never seen any works published. She submitted an article to New Concept, but she did not expect to enter the semi-finals.
"Just writing randomly."
Now it was Song's father's turn not to want to talk.
Can you win prizes just by writing randomly?
This simply belittles Song Chan!
Song's father suspected that Chen Ru was deliberately making trouble, so he turned his head away and stopped talking to Chen Ru.
Chen Ru didn't realize that she had offended someone, and she only came to her senses now.
Wen Ying actually won the first prize?
Chen Ru's eyes shone, the first prize would be reduced!
Thinking of this, Chen Ru's depression disappeared, and she felt a sense of comfort surge from the soles of her feet to her head. Even without makeup, Chen Ru's good complexion could not be blocked.
Chen Ru wanted to take a photo of Wen Ying accepting the award, but found that she had forgotten her camera in the room.
I never expected to win the award before, but now I regret it too late.
Being hit by this huge surprise, Chen Ru was ecstatic and secretly pinched her arm.
If it hurts, it's not a dream.
Chen Ru took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Wen Dongrong, "Wen Ying won the prize, first prize!"
Then he sent an identical text message to Chen Li.
Chen Ru didn't have many relatives. After sending messages to her husband and sister, her desire to talk was still not gone, so she didn't care about her contempt for Deng Shangwei and even sent a message to Deng Shangwei.
She originally wanted to inform her colleagues, but the first prize winners stood in a row on the stage to take photos. Chen Ru was diverted and she resisted the urge.
On the stage, Song Chan had just come to her senses.
Unexpectedly, Wen Ying actually won the first prize.
Song Chan smiled and waved, "Sister Wen, stand next to me."
Song Chan looked quite thin, but her hands were quite strong. As soon as Wen Ying received the certificate, Song Chan pulled her to her side.
Song Chan is tall, thin, and has an outstanding literary and artistic temperament. Wen Ying stood next to Song Chan, and her face seemed a little rounder.
But this is not a beauty pageant. Wen Ying is used to entering and exiting with a fairy like Xie Qian, and she feels no pressure at all when standing with Song Chan.
"Senior sister, congratulations!"
"Congratulations, senior sister, you deserve the award, I was just lucky."
If you don't hit the smiling person, Song Chan will be polite, and Wen Ying will be polite too.
He said it was a fluke, and the confidence on his face particularly pricked Song Chan's eyes.
Wen Ying had no time to pay attention to Song Chan's little thoughts. She looked down at the certificate in her hand, feeling a little dreamy and unreal at this moment.
Wen Ying looked at the certificate and smiled.
It's not like Chen Ru who thinks about lowering her grades or something, but she is laughing at herself for being timid.
In her previous life, she sent out the registration form. She didn’t have the experience of an adult, so she probably couldn’t write any in-depth articles. She was destined to miss out on the first prize in the New Concept Essay Contest, but she didn’t even dare to fill out the registration form, and her execution skills were too poor.
It's too low.
There are so many hard-working and diligent people in the world who may not succeed. Why should God favor a timid person who doesn’t work hard enough?
Thinking of the regrets of her previous life as mountains, she climbed another one today.
Others regarded the first-class certificate in their hand as a ticket to a famous school. Wen Ying felt like getting the tourist ticket with the red seal of the scenic spot after getting a famous mountain resort. She felt like she was reborn, and finally came to the "New Concept Essay Contest"
People born in the 1980s remember the excitement of successfully checking in at an internet celebrity spot.
Because in this year's first prize, Wen Ying and Song Chan came from the same high school, and reporters wanted to interview them and take some group photos of them.
Wen Ying cooperated.
The award ceremony started at three o'clock in the afternoon and ended at six o'clock.
Contestants who did not win can arrange their own itinerary, and the second prize contestants did not receive much attention. None of the first prize winners left. Even the winners in Group C who did not need to be admitted by lowering their scores wanted to stay and communicate with the judges.
Let’s get to know each other.
The two most popular best-selling authors today both came out of the New Concept Essay Contest.
Although the New Concept Composition Contest is only one of the resumes of two best-selling writers, the main reason why they can stand out from many young writers is that the market recognition outside of the New Concept Composition Contest still brings great success to the first prize winners.
Great impact.
Everyone thinks that the New Concept Essay Contest can make young authors popular.
If "Sprout" is willing to give them space, their names will often appear in the publication, and publishing a book will not be difficult. There will be judges on the scene who are senior executives of the publishing house... People like Song Chan who have already published a book can also make good use of this award.
, for example, her novel with mediocre sales, after she won the award, she could add a title like "The masterpiece of Song Chan, the first prize winner of the New Concept Competition" and re-launch it on the market.
Most readers attach great importance to the author's name when buying books. With the blessing of winning the award, Song Chan's book should be able to increase sales.
Wen Ying still wants to stay.
Representatives from more than a dozen prestigious schools that have co-organized the competition with "Sprout" will discuss with the first prize winners of Group A after the competition about admission with lower scores.
The matter may not necessarily be finalized immediately, but the two parties can contact each other first. If both parties are interested, the school will be able to directly upgrade the application after the college entrance examination scores are met.
The most sincere universities set their standards at the same level.
How could Chen Ru not be tempted by such a temptation?
The contestants in Group B are at a bit of a disadvantage because they are only in their first year of high school and there are too many uncertainties in their future. The focus of colleges and universities is still on the winners of Group A.
Chen Ru became anxious when she saw the situation and immediately called Wu Chunqin.
"...Wen Ying won the first prize?"
Wu Chunqin was very surprised on the phone.
Out of respect, Wu Chunqin did not help with the operation after Wen Ying refused, so Wen Ying won the first prize based on her true talent.
