After rebirth, I became a great writer

Chapter 376 The Story of Birds and Fish

Chen Tianhong said the name of the second poem he had "prepared carefully" without looking back.

There is a reason why he didn't look back. The direction of the stage was wrong, and it was up to Frazi to remind him. This was too embarrassing. Fortunately, when he walked onto the stage, he had calmed down after he took the microphone from the poet who had just finished the show.

When the poets who came to participate in the Poetry Festival saw that Hongwen came to the stage, most of the people gathered around.

This phenomenon was first of all, influenced by Frazi and others, and these influential poets in the circle followed Chen Tianhong to the audience and occupied the most favorable position.

Secondly, it is Chen Tianhong's own popularity. For example, everyone has learned that the President of America is coming to the Poetry Festival to see it, and for example, "The Unselected Road" that has been circulating in the circle.

Everyone wants to see what kind of poem this young man, who has just been named a philosophical poet, wants to show off his poem when he comes on stage.

"President Ren, since it is about love, why is the name of the poem also called "The Farest Distance in the World"?"

A domestic poet asked in confusion.

"What's the matter? It means that this poem does not praise love, it should be a state of secret love, or a kind of love that cannot be obtained. It's distance! You should understand."

Before Ren Changsong could speak, Xiao Liu, who was standing beside him, began to understand himself. When he came back from a walk with Chen Tianhong last night, he asked a few more questions and understood that.

"I can't love, I'm damn, he was inspired by the story of Mr. Hu and Ms. Serena, right?"

Xiao Liu's words of love made the person who heard it subconsciously look at Hu Yuekun, and a guess also emerged in his mind.

"Quiet, you'll know if you keep listening, so much nonsense."

Ren Changsong glared at the talkative domestic poets in dissatisfaction, but he also secretly glanced at Hu Yuekun, his meaning was self-evident.

Hu Yuekun and Serena didn't know what everyone was thinking. They stood side by side, raised their faces slightly, and waited for Chen Tianhong's poem about love.

However, after Chen Tianhong took the microphone on stage, he patted it with his hand. After hearing the "dongdong" sound, he placed the microphone half an arm away from his mouth. He experienced many award speeches, and he had mastered the most suitable distance to the microphone.

"Hello everyone, I am Chen Tianhong from the China Poetry Association. I believe everyone is more familiar with my other name. Hongwen I now have a poem called "Sentenced by Feelings". I want to communicate with you. The name of the poem is "The Farest Distance in the World".

Chen Tianhong gave a simple opening remark in both Chinese and English, but both times he added accents to the four words and words of "feeling with feelings".

Immediately, the sound of his reciting poems rang out throughout the audience.

[The farthest distance in the world is not life and death, but I am standing in front of you, but you don’t know that I love you!]

【The further distance in the world】

Because this poem does not have subsections like "The Unselected Road", Chen Tianhong read the first sentence in Mandarin and then read it again in English.

The first sentence of the opening sentence immediately left no gossip in the audience, and many people entered it. Xiao Liu's words were verified from this. It was really about secret love, but who has never had a secret love partner?

This poem has no special meaning, it tells the feeling of a crush and puts it behind life and death.

Life and death are a distance that can never be merged, so what is the distance that is farther than this?

Oh, it is the distance that my beloved is in front of me but cannot tell, the distance of unrequited love

Sighs sounded one after another.

[The farthest distance in the world is not that I stand in front of you, but you don’t know that I love you, but that I love you so much that I am obsessed with it, but that I can’t say I love you!]

【The farthest distance in the world is not that I can’t say I love you, but]

The following several sentences further extend the feeling and distance of unrequited love, telling the helpless state of mind of countless infatuated men and women about "love but not getting it".

Although Hu Yuekun and Serena were also moved, they did not sigh because they were not secretly in love.

However, a poem came immediately, which instantly hit the deepest part of their hearts.

[The farthest distance in the world is not that I can’t say that I miss you, but that I love each other but cannot be together!]

This poem is the most appropriate interpretation of the story of the two of them. They clearly have love for each other, but they cannot be together. Why can't they be together?

There are many reasons, but in the final analysis, there are only regrets and misses.

Since ancient times, many lovers have never been able to get married in the end. This is an eternal regret and the farthest distance.

Of course, not everyone is as deeply involved as Hu Yuekun and Serena because of their personal experience. Flazi is the representative of what kind of crush, unrequited love, and unsatisfactory love, and he feels that it is just that.

Frazi is a poet with deep thought. When writing poetry, people pay attention to meaning. They never worry about love. They pursue the philosophical thoughts of life.

So far, he was disappointed, thinking that this poem was far worse than "The Unselected Road".

At this time, Chen Tianhong on the stage cleared his throat and said so (so).

[So, the farthest distance in the world is not the distance between trees, but the branches growing at the same root, but cannot rely on each other in the wind!]

"Well? This sentence has a bit of artistic conception, right! Don't just use sensational words to describe distance, but use phenomenal words to make it more vivid."

Flazi became interested and felt like he was substituted.

This sentence is very beautiful, and it describes the cruel distance of "love but not getting". It is obviously a branch growing on the same root, but even with the help of the wind, it cannot rely on each other, and it feels like a miserable life.

Then Frazi heard again "The stars looking at each other, but there is no trajectory of intersection!", "Even though the trajectory meets, there is nowhere to be found in a blink of an eye!" and other philosophical sublimation sentences.

If there is no follow-up, these sentences are the climax of the whole poem, which makes people vividly understand the helplessness of "distance", making people increasingly sad, and increasingly confused, unable to find the direction and end of love.

Just when everyone thought that the song "The Farest Distance in the World" ended, Chen Tianhong's last poem that had been brewing for a long time was recited in an extremely sad tone.

[The farthest distance in the world is the distance between birds and fish, one soars in the sky, the other dives deep into the sea]

Once this sentence is released, there is no follow-up, because the sadness has been carried out to the end.

After telling many "farest distances", this answer is already sad and desperate enough.

How far is the distance between a bird and a fish?

It is the distance between the sky and the sea, the distance that is destined to be unable to gather, and the distance that cannot be heard even if the words "I love you" are said.

Chen Tianhong walked off the stage with continuous sighs. To be honest, when he was just reciting the poem, he had a tear in his eyes. In addition to immersing his emotions, he was also for the sake of the girls who had a crush on him.

Chen Tianhong in this world has never had a crush on others. Yifei is in love with each other and loves each other, so it can only be someone else's crush on him.

"Tianhong, your poem is really fascinating, it's hard to describe it!"

Xiao Liu was the first to express his opinion. His eyes were red and he had no tears, but he must have been immersed in his feelings. He just didn't know if he was a crush on someone else or someone else's crush on him.

"Yes, alas, the lively poetry festival is now miserable and miserable."

"It's not just miserable, I've seen someone cry."

"well"

Several domestic poets expressed their opinions, and what they said was true.

Before Chen Tianhong came on stage, the audience was lively. After he stepped down, everyone rarely even spoke, and most of them looked at each other and sighed. As for "sweeping in tears", there were also some.

The poet's emotions are already more than ordinary people, so naturally there will be no less emotional dramas. There are always a few who are deeply immersed in the audience.

"The last sentence is well interpreted."

This is the evaluation of Derrick, who has not spoken for a long time. In his opinion, this poem can be considered as a good example, but it is much worse than "The Unselected Road", and it is also worse than the first song "Birth as Summer Flower" he read.

Ren Changsong and Frazi both nodded in agreement. The comments were very well-established, and they did not intend to comment again. The poems were not bad and resonated with many people, but how to say that, they were too literary and artistic. For older people, they prefer those with depth.

But there are exceptions. Hu Yuekun and Serena like it very much. At some point, the distance between their shoulders was approaching, and there was only a trace of distance left, but just a trace of distance was like a natural barrier, which separated the "love" between them.

"Tianhong."

Hu Yuekun shouted Chen Tianhong's name with a complicated mood.

"Old Hu, what's wrong?"

"Hongwen, your poem is."

Hu Yuekun wanted to ask if this poem was written specifically for them by Chen Tianhong, or because of their stories, but he could not ask any questions in the future.

Serena also meant this, and she didn't know how to speak.

Seeing this, Chen Tianhong touched his nose, and he understood what the two of them meant.

"Old Hu, Ms. Serena, actually this poem has another name."

"Hmm? What's the name?"

"Birds and Fishes, and there is another story, why don't I tell you?"

Chen Tianhong said he was asking, but he didn't wait for the two old men to speak, and started talking on his own.

"Once upon a time, there was a fish living in a sea, and life was lonely and boring, because it could only swim around every day.

Later, a beautiful bird flew to this sea area. The bird lowered its head and wanted to find a rest on the land. The fish felt that the light on the water surface became dimmed and looked up at the sky. So the bird and the fish's eyes were intertwined.

In this way, the lonely fish and the tired bird were attracted by each other. The fish told the bird about the depth of the ocean, and the bird told the fish about the vast sky.

They talked a lot, from poetry, songs, to philosophy of life, and together they watched the snow, stars, and the moon.

They thought they would stay with each other in this life. Birds can forget the sky they soared, and fish can forget the seabed that dived deep, and nothing can stop their love.

But one day, the bird wants to go back to visit its family. It asks the fish if it is willing to soar in the sky with it and feel the freedom of the wind blowing.

The fish looked at its own sea area and looked at the brilliance of the corals in the water. It was very reluctant to leave. Instead, it asked the bird if it could come down to accompany it. The bird shook its head and smiled bitterly at the sparkling water surface.

One belongs to the sky and the other is born at the bottom of the sea. Although they love each other, they cannot be together.

In the end, the bird flew away from that sea area and never came back for many years. What it didn't know was that the fish did not swim back to this sea area. They were all carefully avoiding the past.

"Well?"

Hu Yuekun had just translated the last sentence to Serena, but Chen Tianhong stopped talking.

"Hehe, Mr. Hu, I haven't thought about the follow-up story yet, so I'll write the poem here."

"No more, the poetry is here"

Hu Yuekun murmured to himself, he looked at Serena, and Serena also looked at him.

They all heard this story in their hearts. It was not that Chen Tianhong told so fascinatingly, but that it was too similar to the stories of both of them.

The bird represents Hu Yuekun, and Serena is the fish at the bottom of the sea.

The two have basically confirmed that "The Farest Distance in the World" and the so-called story of birds and fish, which was specifically told to them by Chen Tianhong, or adapted from their stories.

There is no problem with this. Poetry and stories come from reality. The love songs they write also come from their own feelings.

However, it was so sad to say that by Chen Tianhong!

"One soars in the sky, the other dives deep into the sea"

Lu Mei, who was beside her, looked at Hu Yuekun, then looked at her mother, recited two lines of poetry, and showed sadness on her face.

She also listened to the poems and stories. She knew that her mother had a past event, but she didn't know that their relationship was so deep that it might even surpass her father.

If you want to say that you feel sorry for your father, but now she feels sorry for her mother even more.

"Mother."

Lumei wanted to comfort her mother, but she didn't know what to say. Could it be that the birds and fish can actually be together?

Thinking of this, she glared at the young man with a smile on her face. She originally brought her mother to relax, but the result was so good that her mother felt even worse after listening to the poems and stories.

Chen Tianhong smiled at Lu Mei, and then said to Hu Yuekun and Serena with deep meaning.

"Actually, the birds and fish are just a metaphor, just an excuse to limit people's thinking. Who said that fish and birds cannot be together?

If the birds are willing to give up the blue sky and accommodate the fish, they can be together. If the fish are willing to leave the water, they can be together. If both of them are willing, the story will be another ending. There is still true love in this world."

"Old Mr. Hu, Ms. Selena, are you right? I really hope you can help me with another ending. Of course, the choice is up to you."

Chen Tianhong didn't wait for the two of them to reply, and turned to Lumei and said.

"Miss Lumei, have you just asked about the sequel to "The Ninth District", why don't we talk differently?"

"ah?"

Lu Mei had not yet reacted to Chen Tianhong's words, but after seeing the eyes of her, she immediately understood and nodded immediately.

"President Ren, Mr. Flazi, do you want to go together? We can talk about poetry again."

"It must, it must." These two are also very smart.

So Chen Tianhong walked in front, and other people who reacted followed, leaving Hu Yuekun and Serena with a space to be alone.

"Tianhong, I didn't expect that you wrote this poem because the drunkard was not drinking!"

Xiao Liu rushed a few steps and said in Chen Tianhong's ear. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was helping Hu Yuekun.

"Brother Liu, you can't say this nonsense. I just say it because of my feelings. Mr. Hu and the others' affairs still depend on their own."

Chen Tianhong corrected the way.

There are not many outsiders involved in the relationship. Chen Tianhong did this but he didn't want the two old men to leave regrets. As for the final result, it was not something he could decide.

"Hehe, I understand, I understand."

Xiao Liu grinned and stopped talking about this topic.

"This kid has taken great pains!"

Hu Yuekun looked at Chen Tianhong who was leaving and said this.

Then, he looked at Serena affectionately.

"Linna, let's talk about us."

"good."

Serena nodded.

They did not choose to be in place, but instead found a place with better scenery. During the walk, the gap between their shoulders was gone.

Who says that birds and fish cannot be together?
