Chapter 134 Surprise to come
Liu Jingting said in surprise: "The President Hu..."
"Professor Hu is the vice president. Your teacher's wife will serve as the dean of the School of Literature and Arts after returning to China."
Liu Jingting nodded.
“Do you think I’m nepotism?”
"Of course not, the teacher's wife must be a very powerful person."
Director Kang nodded and said, "Better than me."
Liu Jingting did not refute it. He inexplicably thought of a plot in "The Legend of Condor Heroes". Sixteen years later, Yang Guo, who had become the hero of the Condor Heroes, admitted that he was very sad and serious about his martial arts skills. In fact, at this time, he could compete with the Dongxie Huang Yaoshi and fight with the old naughty boy Zhou Botong without any disadvantage.
"I don't know when it started, studying abroad has become the trend of the times, and it has become easier for everyone to go abroad. Xiao Liu, do you know how difficult it was for me to go abroad at that time?"
Liu Jingting searched his memory and replied, "You should have a quota limit at that time, right?"
“There are only six places in the country.”
Liu Jingting showed a look of admiration.
"But do you know what I have gained most in my life abroad for so many years?"
Liu Jingting replied very cleverly: "Master's wife?"
Director Kang shook his head and said, "Your teacher's wife and I are college classmates. I was with her before I went abroad."
"That's all your knowledge."
Director Kang still shook his head and said, "I went abroad to study economics, and later I took the exam for literature. Because I was more difficult, I barely passed both subjects. At this point, I have the qualifications to speak and have various titles. It seems that there is something really great about it. In fact, I have always ranked myself as the third in literature, the second in economics, and the first in cooking."
“Cooking?”
"Yes, if you have friends and classmates who study abroad, you might as well ask them if this is the case?"
Liu Jingting smiled and said, "Then will I have a good time today?"
"You can just sit there for a while."
Liu Jingting was somewhat flattered and said, "I can fight."
Director Kang waved his hand and said, "A few simple dishes are ready, you can go to the balcony to have a look." Director Kang said and turned around and went into the kitchen, no longer giving Liu Jingting any chance to give any suggestions.
Liu Jingting felt a little surprised. Although he didn't know much about Director Kang's social influence, he clearly remembered the legendary experiences of Director Kang. Now, he actually wanted to cook for himself.
Liu Jingting was stunned for a while, smiled and shook his head, and was about to get up to go to the balcony when he suddenly heard the phone ringing from Director Kang's house.
"Director Kang, phone number."
Director Kang, who had already tied his apron, leaned forward and said, "You take it."
"Oh." Liu Jingting agreed while walking to the phone and called out: "Hey, Director Kang's house."
He was stunned for a moment on the phone, and then a young female voice said, "Who are you?"
"I am a student who came to visit Director Kang's house."
"Liu Jingting?" guessed on the phone.
"right."
"Where is my dad?"
"Oh. Are you the daughter of Director Kang?"
"This is obvious."
Liu Jingting laughed at himself and said, "Director Kang is cooking, will I go and call him?"
"My dad is cooking?"
"yes."
"Okay, don't call him, please tell him for help. I'll bet to beat my mother and will return home next year. Let him be mentally prepared."
"Um."
"By the way, since that's such a coincidence, I'll thank you."
"You're welcome."
The other end of the phone was stunned again, and then said, "Then this is the case, I'm going to sleep."
"good."
From the other party's tone and speed, Liu Jingting easily judged that the girl who spoke to him was definitely a girl with an IQ of no less than Wang Qianqian, so his reply was very concise. There would generally be no handles or loopholes in simplicity.
Liu Jingting hung up the phone, walked to the kitchen door and told Director Kang Lingyue's words to Director Kang. After hearing this, Director Kang smiled unanimously and fell into the smoke again.
Twenty minutes later, the food was complete. Two dishes and one soup were amazing. Liu Jingting saw it.
"'A gentleman stays away from the kitchen' has always been regarded as a standard by his male compatriots, but in fact he is to make excuses for not cooking." Liu Jingting smiled.
"The original meaning of this sentence is actually to oppose killing." Director Kang said.
Liu Jingting nodded in agreement, then pointed to the food on the table and said, "The appearance and smell are both top-notch."
"Then move your mouth and try it."
...
The old and the young started to talk. Of course, they wouldn’t just eat. The topic started with cooking. After a while, they soon came to "The True Story of Ah Q".
"What was the initial trigger point of the work? I know it would not be just their provocation. The irony of them in the novel is more like a stroke, and the ambitions are contained in it."
Liu Jingting stopped chopsticks and replied seriously: "Using philosophical theory to explain it more clearly, that is, from special to universal, and from universal to special, probably this is what it means."
Director Kang was very satisfied with the answer and nodded, "I did this very successfully."
After pausing for a while, Director Kang said, "I have something to tell you. The Writers Association wants your article and ask me to apply for the National Literature Award for you. What do you mean."
Liu Jingting continued without any hesitation: "The article can be convenient for them, but I don't want to accept the official reward for the time being. Well, I just don't want to stage the story of hurting Zhongyong again."
"Okay, I'll get them back for you." Director Kang replied very simply, with a flash of relief in his eyes.
"Thank you, Director."
"Call me from now on, and call Uncle Kang when I get along alone."
Liu Jingting smiled and nodded.
"Well, another news is related to the Academy of Literature and Arts, of course, it has something to do with you."
Liu Jingting looked at Director Kang in confusion.
"Have you heard about the drama "Danian"?"
Liu Jingting thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said, "I don't know much."
"Normal, young people nowadays like movies and online games. There are probably not many young people who like to watch dramas."
Liu Jingting nodded in agreement and said, "It's true, but I'm quite interested in dramas, but I don't have many opportunities and I watch them less."
Liu Jingting's words are true. When he was in his sophomore year, he happened to encounter an event called for "Classic Culture to Enter Campus". He watched a drama called "The Li Qiu" with his friends. It was the first time he watched a drama on the spot. His heart was greatly shocked. Since then, he has really fallen in love with watching a drama.
After that, I watched no less than five or six campus dramas including "Thunderstorm", "The Rhino of Love", "Secret Love of Peach Blossom Land", etc.
"It's okay, there are many opportunities," Director Kang smiled thoughtfully, "When our Literature and Art Academy is completed and you will be faced after entering the school, the first thing you will face is the National Drama Competition."
"National Drama Competition?"
"Yes, for the drama competition for the "Central and European Culture Year", the first place will have the opportunity to travel to the UK and perform at the Royal Grand Theater in London."
Liu Jingting said "Wow".
Director Kang continued: "In the future, you may have to switch to Broadway in the United States and have the ultimate showdown with drama teams from top universities around the world. Do you know the meaning?"
Liu Jingting confessed modestly and frankly: "I know, but it's too far away."
Chapter completed!
