"Well, it doesn't have much to do with me anyway. Let's go back to school first. " Kevin thought.
Yes, every time the news announced by the school is either that a classmate has done a good deed, or that Augustine has published an article in which newspaper. He's not surprised. So Kevin made a detour straight back to the classroom.
The atmosphere of Edinburgh University is relatively free, which is also a characteristic of British universities. There will not be too many restrictions here, and students can be free a lot. Because of this, Kevin can go back and forth in school at will.
But today is the class of class teacher collison, so he decided to go back to the classroom. You know, except for collison, no teacher is willing to help him.
Not long after Kevin sat down, collison walked into the classroom with a smile on his face. It seems that there should be a happy event.
"The good news is that the number of places for the second round of this year's London literature competition has come out. There is only one place for the second round in Edinburgh, and this place is located in our university of Edinburgh. Can you guess who it is? " Collison said it with a smile.
"Augustine, no doubt."
"Yes, I think it's Augustine. After all, only Augustine has such strength in Edinburgh."
"A few days ago, his father also said that Augustine had shown extraordinary talent since he was a child."
All the students thought that the quota would be Augustine. After all, Augustine had published articles in magazines and newspapers and had a certain strength. But they forgot that besides Augustine, there was also a man named Kevin.
Augustine also had a smile on his face at this time. Since he was a child, he never missed any literary competition, so this time he believed it was no exception.
"Augustine, congratulations. It's all about talent versus talent, and you're in the second round. I believe you will become a great writer. "
"Yes, Augustine, don't you don't know us then."
Linda's lips also smile when she hears the praise. Perhaps she was thinking: finally find their own happiness.
When collison saw that the situation was not right, he didn't want to play any more tricks. Busy said: "everyone, this person is not Augustine, but Kevin. Dear Kevin, I have to admire you. In half an hour, you wrote an article that moved the judges. You know, that's something ordinary people can't do. "
When the words came out, the classroom became quiet. Augustine's face was black for a moment, and he lowered it gently.
Kevin had expected this result for a long time. At this time, he knew what other classes were watching when he just passed the billboard. Maybe, it's just that I entered the second round.
"What? Dear Mr. collison, do you think Kevin is qualified for the second round As Kevin's best friend, kovani couldn't believe his ears.
"Yes, you heard me right. Kevin is the only one in Edinburgh who can take part in the semi-finals. He also won the honor for our university of Edinburgh. Maybe we should give him a round of applause. "
With that, collison took the lead in clapping, and then there was a warm applause in the classroom.
"It's incredible, Kevin. You're beyond our expectations."
"Yes, we didn't expect you to have such talent. And your work was finished in the last half hour. "
"Kevin, tell me, at that moment, were you possessed by God?"
Students don't hate Kevin, but they don't like his literary ability. But I didn't expect that he was the only one who could win the second round of the London literature competition, which made everyone admire his talent.
"Yeah, Kevin, I'm also curious about how you can finish an article that moves tricky judges in half an hour." Coryson also asked curiously.
For a moment, all eyes were on Kevin. Oh, except Augustine. Augustine wanted to find a hole to go in at this time.
"Nothing. I'm just writing. In the future, I think there will be more touching works. " Kevin said in a low voice.
"Write whatever you want?" Four words make everyone confused. Such a gifted competition, usually write activity summary are not good, he even casually write into the semi-finals. It's amazing.
Students can't help but have a 360 degree turn in their view of Kevin. Yes, it's the most advanced literature competition in Britain. It's the representative of ability and talent to enter the second round. You know, Kevin was the only one in Edinburgh.
Kovani, in particular, went with Kevin recently, but did not find that Kevin had such a literary level. Even the other day, he told Kevin to give up some ideas.
"Kevin, how are you. Now you are the pride of the University of Edinburgh. Damn, I think those noble princesses have come to throw themselves in your arms. "
Kovani said this to Augustine and Linda on purpose. Who told Linda to laugh at Kevin as a poor man with no future in front of so many people.
"Thank you, my best friend." Kevin gave a thank you.
Sure enough, Kevin's name spread in Edinburgh University. The headmaster even invited someone to make a banner with a note of "warmly celebrating Kevin's qualification for the London Literature Competition".
This surprised those who despised Kevin. Their hearts are also deeply thinking: "perhaps at the beginning of their own view is wrong, can enter the literature competition qualification, absolutely is not a waste."
Kevin heard that he entered the semi-finals, although not too much surprise. But my heart is still very happy.
Of course, the main reason is that he has just been ridiculed by Zela's editor that it is a miracle that he can enter the semi-finals.
At this time, Kevin was smiling in his heart. Maybe God wants him to be reborn here, just to make him work miracles.
After the quota is announced, Kevin will go to London in three days. Although time is tight, it is specially requested by the organizer. What they need is a talented writer who can write good articles all the time. It's not the kind of writer who has thought for decades to write a vulgar work.
So, after Kevin's preparation, he has to fly to London and report to the organizers. Fortunately, the organizer is responsible for the round-trip expenses, including food, housing and transportation. Poor Kevin doesn't need to worry about the funds.
Besides, after hearing that the only place in Edinburgh is located in the University of Edinburgh, the president was very happy and made a promise that the university could sponsor all of Kevin's tournaments.
Anyway, for a while, Kevin became the subject of discussion at the University of Edinburgh. Maybe I'm sorry. Linda and Augustine both asked for leave during this period.
In Deyun's editing room, editor Zela changed a pink smock today. Last quarter's goal has not been achieved, she quietly encouraged herself in her heart, in this quarter we must explore more good works.
As usual, she picked up a copy of the Edinburgh evening news and looked at it. Suddenly, a striking headline appeared in front of him - "announcement of the list of the sixth London Literature Competition semi finals".
As a literary editor, she naturally pays close attention to literary affairs all the time, especially such large-scale literary competitions. And she won't miss it.
"The result of the second round was announced so soon? Let's see if any literary talent from Edinburgh has made it to the semi-finals. Oh, I think there must be Augustine's son. After all, tiger father has no dog
Zela couldn't wait to open the newspaper and looked at the list carefully.
Edinburgh, Kevin Stephen, University of Edinburgh.
"Why is the name a little familiar?"
When Zela saw Kevin's name, she suddenly remembered something and threw the newspaper aside.
"Well! Even in the second round, it's not necessarily the champion. You know, the second round is the time to show strength Zela hummed to herself.
Zela doesn't believe in her own judgment. Although she didn't read Kevin's Jane Eyre, she knew from the book's name that it had no new ideas. It's not easy for a young man with no new ideas to win the championship in the second round.
After calming down, Zela continued to review her manuscript.
