23: Chapter 23 features Professor Hao from Tsinghua and Peking Universities.
Why did Jiang Feng write this kind of love poem?
Could it be that, at this moment, he already has other thoughts about her?
Or is it that he wants to turn this act into reality?
At the thought of this, a slight flush appeared on Li Qingwan's face.
Of course, at this moment, the most heated discussion was among the audience in the livestream room.
Originally, everyone thought that Jiang Feng wanted to write a poem because he didn't want to give a gift.
He wanted to come up with a doggerel poem to muddle through.
But when everyone carefully savored the few lines of poetry that Jiang Feng recited,
they discovered that these few lines of poetry didn't seem quite so simple.
"No way, is he for real?"
"Why do these lines of poetry feel more and more unusual the more I read them?"
"Why is there inexplicably a unique charm to them?"
"Does anyone have the full version? Can you send it to me?"
"'If love between two people can last forever, why does it need to be day and night together?' This line is absolutely incredible."
"I feel that the line 'When the golden autumn wind meets the jade-like dew, it surpasses countless people in the mortal world' is even more exquisite."
"Is this really something that Jiang Feng could write?"
"Could it be that he plagiarized it from some ancient person?"
"I think it's very likely; what modern person could write such ancient-style verses?"
"Wait, let me go ask Doubao to see which poet he plagiarized."
Even if the audience in the livestream room lacked any appreciation skills,
after the line "If love between two people can last forever, why does it need to be day and night together" came out,
the audience in the livestream room all realized something was wrong.
This didn't look like the level of a doggerel poem.
But at this moment, there was still a great deal of doubt in the audience's hearts.
After all, in their hearts, Jiang Feng was just a phoenix man and a freeloader.
How could he possibly write such lines of poetry?
Therefore, they all rushed to ask search software like Baidu and Doubao.
Very quickly.
These netizens who went to search reached a common conclusion.
This poem had not appeared on any part of the internet at all.
Nor had it appeared in any dynasty.
In other words, this was its first appearance.
In other words, was this Jiang Feng's original work?
"Holy crap, I asked Doubao, and Doubao said it hasn't seen this poem before."
"Could it be that this poem really is Jiang Feng's original work?"
The audience in the livestream room reached an unbelievable conclusion.
"Jiang Feng, is this poem of yours your original work?"
"I want to know, what is it called?"
Host Chen Xue also realized at this moment that this poem was not simple.
She also put away her initial sense of contempt.
She asked Jiang Feng.
"If, in this world, no one has written the same poem as me before, then it should be my original work."
"Additionally, the name of this poem is 'immortal at the magpie bridge'."
Jiang Feng responded calmly.
Although he had long confirmed that the ancient poetry of this world was not quite the same as in his previous life,
to be safe, he still spoke rather conservatively.
After all, he was afraid that one day, an ancient person named Qin Guan in this world would crawl out from underground
and say that he had plagiarized his poem.
"immortal at the magpie bridge."
"What a beautiful name."
After Host Chen Xue recited it once, she couldn't help but praise it.
"It's just a poem; no matter how good it is, how good can it really be?"
Zhang Xiaochen felt a bit sour when he heard the host praising Jiang Feng.
He had just gifted a watch worth several million, yet he hadn't heard the host praise him once.
"I'm a rough guy and don't understand poetry."
"In my opinion, this stuff isn't practical."
Olympic Champion Chen Long also chimed in.
"I actually think these lines of poetry by Jiang Feng are quite beautiful."
Zhang Xiaochen's wife, Zhang Yi, came from a noble background, and her level of appreciation was clearly much higher than Zhang Xiaochen's.
She couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
But this exclamation of admiration fell upon Zhang Xiaochen's ears as something so grating.
"Heh, this stuff is just a means for those without any real talent to chase after young girls."
Zhang Xiaochen belittled him again.
"Jiang Feng, I've taken a look, and it seems there isn't an expert here who can appraise the level of your poem."
"How about I connect with a professor from the Literature Department of Qingbei University and let him appraise the level of this poem?"
"As it happens, I've worked on a program with him before, so I have his contact information."
Host Chen Xue, seeing that guests like Zhang Xiaochen and Olympic Champion Chen Long were all belittling Jiang Feng's poem,
proposed a good idea.
This idea was instantly approved by the Program team.
After all, for them, as laymen, discussing the quality of this poem here
was meaningless.
But if a literature professor from Qingbei came, he would be an expert in this field.
His words would clearly carry more credibility.
"I have no problem with that."
Jiang Feng still responded calmly.
What did he have to be afraid of?
He didn't believe that this timeless masterpiece could be disparaged as worthless by a professor from Qingbei University.
"What about you, Qingwan?"
Host Chen Xue looked at Li Qingwan.
"I'm fine with it."
Li Qingwan also nodded.
She also wanted to know exactly what the level of this poem was.
"Alright, then we will connect with Professor Hao from the Literature Department of Qingbei University."
"He specializes in ancient literature at Qingbei University. I believe no one will question his literary level."
As Host Chen Xue said this, she dialed Professor Hao's phone number.
"Professor Hao from Qingbei University?"
"That person is incredibly qualified."
"I remember, our high school Chinese textbooks were compiled by him, right?"
"This is a big-shot figure in the modern literary world."
"I didn't expect the Program team to be able to connect with such an awesome person."
"Then, whether this poem is a mule or a horse, we'll know the result soon."
Upon hearing this, the audience in the livestream room all spoke up.
Who would dare to question the authority of a literature professor from Qingbei University?
"Heh, I think this is just a doggerel poem."
"In front of a professor from Qingbei University, it will absolutely reveal its true colors."
Zhang Xiaochen started to sneer and mock.
Mainly, it was because his wife had just praised Jiang Feng.
This was something he couldn't stand.
So, he was determined to keep bashing Jiang Feng now.
Even though Jiang Feng had basically ignored him from start to finish.
"Indeed, as for poetry, how could modern people write any high-level poems?"
Olympic Champion Chen Long also declared directly.
Clearly, both of them looked down on Jiang Feng.
And just at this moment,
Chen Xue's call went through.
"Hello, Xiaoxue, what made you think of calling me?"
An old man's voice came from the other end of the line.
"Professor Hao, long time no see."
"It's like this, I'm currently doing a program."
"I've encountered something very controversial, so I wanted to ask for your advice."
Chen Xue said very respectfully and politely.
