Chapter 177 Invitation to crush masters and beautiful writers

"Student Liu Xing, don't talk nonsense." Li Zhigang pretended to be calm, "I have already appraised this "Night Ranger" last night, and it is a one-star novel."

"Appraisal books may be wrong." Liu Xing said, "I feel that this novel should have reached the three-star level."

Li Zhigang smiled lightly, and reminded: "You only read this "Night Ranger" for a few minutes and then comment on it. This kind of habit is not good. A book appraiser should seek truth from facts and speak with data instead of coveting a momentary quick talk. Talk about it."

Zhang Haoran on the side helped explain: "Senior Li, Liu Xing has no malicious intentions. He is an intuitive book appraiser. He can roughly judge the quality of a novel by reading only a dozen pages. That's why he became a member of the book appraiser department." Specially recruited."

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding students were in an uproar, even Zhang Yaxin's eyes fell on Liu Xing involuntarily.

"You can identify a novel by only reading a dozen pages? Isn't that impossible?"

"It is said that Xiaoyaoke, the book king, has such an ability!"

"Liu Xing is the same as Book King?"

……

The students were discussing in low voices, and everyone was suddenly full of curiosity about the first-year freshman in front of them.

"Are you kidding me?" Li Zhigang didn't believe Zhang Haoran's words, and said solemnly, "Appraisal of books is all about precise calculations. Liu Xing hasn't even finished reading this novel, so how can he be qualified to judge novels?"

Zhang Haoran reminded: "Senior Li, you are right. For normal people like us, we can only rely on accurate calculations in appraising books. But Liu Xing is different from us, he only needs to rely on intuition."

Li Zhigang was furious when he heard Zhang Haoran's careless words.In his opinion, Zhang Haoran's subtext seemed to be saying: Senior Li, you are a mortal just like us, of course you can only use ordinary methods to calculate, but Liu Xing is a genius, not something you can compare to.

"A genius book appraiser, right? Okay!" The more Li Zhigang thought about it, the more unconvinced he became, but with a smile on his face, he took a novel from the bookcase and handed it to Liu Xing. I just finished appraising it in an hour. If you can rely on your intuition to judge its level, I believe you are a genius book appraiser. At the same time, I can accept your question and re-appraise "Night Ranger". But if If you guessed wrong, then you have to apologize for what you just said that was irresponsible."

Liu Xing didn't say much, he took "Blue Flower Chronicle" and flipped through it casually.

【Book Title】"Blue Flower Chronicles"

[Type] Emotional novel (stream of consciousness)
【Grade】two-star
[Matching degree] 0.04%
Pretending to read the novel for a while, Liu Xing said, ""Blue Flower Chronicle" is a one-star novel..."

Hearing this, Li Zhigang's face was filled with pride, and just as he was overjoyed, he heard Liu Xing continue to say, "This is impossible! "Blue Flower Chronicle" is obviously a two-star novel."

The smile on Li Zhigang's face froze instantly.

The surrounding students were all shocked!
This "Blue Flower Chronicle" was appraised more than half an hour ago, and the students in the reading room basically know it.At that time, Liu Xing had not yet entered the reading room.

"This freshman named Liu Xing guessed it right! It only took him 3 minutes to determine the grade of the novel!"

"To be precise, it is 2 minutes and 57 seconds. I just looked at my watch and counted."

"Your watch is not accurate. It should be 2 minutes and 55 seconds. You counted 2 seconds too much."

"Don't worry about such details!"

……

The discussion of the surrounding students has already explained the result of this contest.

A few minutes ago, they were just curious about Liu Xing.But now, in addition to curiosity, more envy and admiration.

This kind of intuitive genius book appraiser may not be born once in a hundred years, and it is hard to come by.

Except for Book King, there was no one in Tianhai City who possessed such a talent.

"Student Liu Xing has good eyesight, I admire you."

Li Zhigang knew that he had already lost, so he changed his face very quickly. After a brief stalemate, he immediately changed his mind and said, "I didn't expect Liu Xing to have such extraordinary talent. I would like to admit defeat. Since you guessed the level of "Blue Flower Chronicle" correctly, Then I will keep my promise and reappraise "Night Ranger". Junior sister Yaxin, I will trouble you to wait another two hours."

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

After the discussion, Li Zhigang called four book appraisers including Xiao Zheng and Xiao Wu, and the five of them operated five high-speed computers to jointly appraise "Night Ranger".

If this "Night Ranger" is appraised by a single person, it will take at least 8 hours.Five book appraisers together can shorten the time by four times, and only need about 2 hours.

Swish!
On the computer screen, strings of data flickered like flowing water, and the indicator points of the computer flickered non-stop.

two hours later.

The new appraisal result of the novel finally came out.

All the people in the audience fell silent immediately, and all their attention was focused on Li Zhigang's appraisal report.

Li Zhigang looked at the report pretendingly, and said with a face of shame: "Junior Sister Yaxin, I'm really sorry, this "Night Ranger" is really a three-star novel..."

"What?" Zhang Yaxin's pretty face showed surprise, and the people around were shocked again: Liu Xing guessed right again!
"I appraised "Night Ranger" with Xiao Zheng last night. Xiao Zheng made a serious calculation error, which I didn't realize at the time." Li Zhigang explained, "That's why "Night Ranger" was wrongly identified as one star. Novel. This mistake has been corrected now. Congratulations, Junior Yaxin, your work is a three-star."

"..." Xiao Zheng, the book appraiser, was speechless for a while. He didn't participate in the appraisal of "Night Ranger" at all last night.However, Xiao Zheng didn't say anything. It wasn't the first time he had blamed Li Zhigang.

Zhang Yaxin was full of joy when she got the new appraisal result.

Li Zhigang walked towards Liu Xing and said with a smile: "Student Liu Xing, thanks for reminding me this time, please give me more advice in the future."

After this episode, the reading room became busy again, and everyone continued to do their own things.

The only difference is that Li Zhigang never asked Liu Xing to move the books.

Everyone in the entire reading room has realized that Liu Xing, a first-year freshman, is not at the same level as their identification talent.

Even Li Zhigang, who is a master of the Department of Appreciation, has no temper under Liu Xingzhi.

Invisibly, Liu Xing's status in the club is completely different.

After that, Liu Xing started to do what he wanted to do.

There are more than 1000 novels in the reading room, all of which are written by students of the writing department.

The creative level of these students is indeed much higher than that of ordinary people. Liu Xing spent three hours testing these works and found that half of the works have reached the level of one-star novels.

"It seems that we need to find an opportunity to get in touch with students from the writing department."
……

After five o'clock in the afternoon.

Liu Xing walked out of the reading room, ready to leave the Fiction Academy and go home for dinner.Students of the School of Fiction are usually not allowed to leave school, they can only go out once a week on weekends.
Liu Xing is a special recruit and enjoys special treatment.

"Student Liu Xing, wait a minute."

While walking on a winding campus path, a girl's voice suddenly came from behind him. Liu Xing looked back and saw a girl in white running towards her. It was Zhang Yaxin, a beautiful writer from the writing department.

Not long after, Zhang Yaxin had already run to him and said, "Student Liu Xing, thank you so much today. If it wasn't for your help, I might be depressed for a long time."

"It's just a little effort, you're welcome."

"You are really amazing. You can identify a novel in a few minutes." Zhang Yaxin asked cautiously with surprise in her eyes, "Can I ask you to help identify novels in the future?"

"Yes, if you are not afraid of me fooling you."

"Huyou?" Zhang Yaxin covered her mouth with a smile and said, "You are one of the top ten honest booksellers in Fiction Street. I believe there should be no problem with your character."

It seems that she has watched the bookseller conference broadcast live on Tianhai TV.

Thinking of something, Liu Xing changed his mind and said, "The "Night Ranger" you wrote seems to be related to the Shadow Man?"

"Yes." Zhang Yaxin nodded, "I wrote the biography of the shadow man."

"Have you seen the shadow man?"

"No."

"Then how do you write a biography?"

"Writing a biography is challenging because I haven't seen it before." Zhang Yaxin recalled, "Actually, I may have seen the Shadow Man once."

Zhang Yaxin had indeed seen the shadow man. A few months ago, when Liu Xing sneaked into the Fiction Academy, he used a student ID to sneak into the library.At that time, that student ID card belonged to Zhang Yaxin.

"Since "Night Ranger" is related to Sombra, you can consider participating in the 'Sombra Cup' essay contest." Liu Xing said along the topic, "You should know this essay contest, right?"

Zhang Yaxin nodded: "Many students in our writing department were planning to participate in the essay call, but they were afraid that their works would be buried. After all, there may be hundreds of thousands of works in the competition. Therefore, none of them contributed in the end."

Liu Xing reminded: "If you students from the writing department want to participate in the competition, you can submit your manuscript directly to me. If the quality of the manuscript meets the standard, I will directly recommend it to the jury of the essay competition. In short, as long as it is an excellent work, it will definitely not be included in the essay competition." Buried in the competition."

Zhang Yaxin thought for a while, and agreed: "Okay, I will tell my classmates tonight, if they are interested, I will contribute to you."

"Thank you."

"By the way, Liu Xing, I still have something to ask for your help." Zhang Yaxin pursed her lips slightly and said softly, "I'm planning to write a biography about a bookseller recently, and I think your experience is quite legendary Yes, can I write a biography based on you?"

Liu Xing frowned: "Write me a biography?"

"Well." Zhang Yaxin introduced, "I checked some of your information and found that you have been very inspiring in the past year. One year ago, you were still a mental patient, and your family owed a lot of debts. One year later, today , you are already a multi-millionaire, not only one of the top ten booksellers in Fiction Street, but also a committee member of Fiction Street. Also, you are now a special student of Yufeng Fiction Academy, with a bright future. Write your experiences as Biography, sharing your successful experience with more people, I think it is very meaningful..."

Liu Xing interrupted: "Forget it, I'm just lucky, I don't have any successful experience."

"You are too modest. Successful people have their own merits." Zhang Yaxin pleaded again, "Student Liu Xing, we are also classmates after all, so why don't you do me a favor. I won't take up too much of your time , I just want to know some of your self-made experience."

Liu Xing still shook his head.

Zhang Yaxin's beautiful eyes flashed, she thought of something, and said, "How about this, let's make a deal. If I can persuade 100 students from the writing department to participate in the 'Shadow Man Cup' essay contest, I will accept my exclusive interview and authorize the How about I write your biographical novel?"

Liu Xing's heart moved, this transaction is quite attractive, he pondered for a while: "Can you really let 100 students participate in the essay competition?"

"it should be OK."

"Okay, it's a word."

The writing level of students in the writing department is relatively high, and most students can write star novels.If 100 students really participate in the essay contest, then 100 star-rated novels will be produced in the contest, which is an astonishing number.

You know, there were only 51 star-rated novels in the first quarter of the essay contest.

Of course, the biggest beneficiary is still Liu Xing.

The more star-rated novels, the more novels he can absorb...
