Rebirth As a Writer In Britain
Chapter 2 Amazing Speed
"No, I just want to confirm the time. In half an hour, I think I can hand in a good work." Kevin is still so confident.
However, Kevin's self-confidence is nothing more than persistent self-confidence in the eyes of other students. Some students even thought that his anomaly at this time was caused by his failure to express his love yesterday. Even his buddy Kovani thinks so.
"It's really bragging. It takes a long time for a literary genius like Augustine to polish an article, let alone him."
"I have to admire his self-confidence, but this kind of blind self-confidence seems very ignorant. To participate in this kind of powerful literary competition, it is natural to come up with a strong article to participate, but within half an hour, he How could it be possible to write a good article."
"Maybe he was hit by his failure to confess. You must know that Augustine is his rival in love."
No one would be optimistic about Kevin writing a good work within half an hour, because their favorite Augustine couldn't do it.
"Kevin, I'm glad you have such confidence. But do you know that it took Augustine twenty-three days from signing up to submitting the manuscript, which means that he only submitted the manuscript for the competition the day before yesterday. Are you sure you Can you finish a piece of work in half an hour?"
Collison is a kind teacher, and he didn't want to say too many words to hurt Kevin, so he could only say it tactfully.
Yes, those who participated in this literary competition dreamed of being able to enter the semi-finals and become famous in the literary world. Therefore, their requirements for the works are particularly strict, and they always edit and edit, and change and change.
Augustine has always been considered the pride of the future of the University of Edinburgh because of his father's relationship, and the teachers and principals of the school also generally believe that his future will be linked to literary giants, and he will even win the Nobel Prize for Literature.
In other words, this so-called literary genius had to revise more than a dozen times before submitting the manuscript, not to mention that someone with such a poor literary level like Kevin wants to complete a good work in half an hour, it is simply whimsical .
"Dear Mr. Collison, I think I can. But I'm sorry, I may not be interested in your class." Kevin said.
"This is the University of Edinburgh. Freedom is the purpose of this school. You can do what you want, even in my classroom. I just hope you can hand in a work within half an hour." University of Collison Said at a certain degree.
Collison is giving Kevin Wang a break this time, after all, he doesn't want to hit the opponent too much. So as not to make Kevin feel overwhelmed and make extreme behaviors.
In this way, Kevin sat down, and then began to recall the works of which British literary giant on Earth in his previous life should be copied down.
The time now is only half an hour, so naturally he can't copy those long speeches, otherwise he won't have enough time just to write. So Kevin thought it was poetry.
In Britain on earth, there are many poets, among whom Shelley and Yeats are the most famous.
So, after much deliberation, Kevin decided to take Shelley's "The Rose of Love" as an entry.
"The Rose of Love" can be regarded as one of Shelley's masterpieces of romantic poetry. It is divided into three short sections, each of which is a deathly romance, and the "third" in particular is the sublimation of the whole poem.
Time cannot destroy love,
But fickleness and injustice will ruin the flower of love,
Even if it blooms in the shade of fantasy,
It will also wither suddenly, which will catch you off guard.
Time cannot destroy love,
But fickleness and ignorance will destroy love,
would destroy its vermilion shimmering shrine.
On that earth where there are so many literary works, such a simple poem can cause a sensation, not to mention the current parallel world where there are no literary works in Britain. Therefore, Kevin is very confident that if this work goes to the judges, he will definitely be able to enter the semi-finals. Because classics are always classics, no matter in which era or in which starry sky.
"The Rose of Love" is not very long, and it took Kevin more than ten minutes to write it neatly on paper.
When Collison's lecture was over, he handed over the work and his own materials to Collison. Collison gave Kevin a surprised look, then took his manuscript. However, he didn't read the articles carefully.
Collison has coached Kevin for three years, and he is very clear about Kevin's literary level, which is a bad word to describe.
"It's very good, you actually completed an entry in just half an hour. Well, I will help you submit it to the organization. I hope you can enter the semi-finals." Collison smiled kindly Then, he walked out of the classroom.
The students were also surprised that Kevin could complete a work in such a short period of time, but they were not optimistic about his ability to enter the semi-finals. After all, being able to write well does not mean being able to write well.
Kovani was the first to walk in front of Kevin, and then he still had that bright smiling face.
"Hey buddy, you're awesome. But you don't have to."
"What?" Kevin asked puzzled.
"Dear Kevin, we are best friends, don't I know you yet? You just don't want the woman you like to fall in love with Augustine, and Augustine is a writer. What he is proud of is his literary ability. Maybe you participated in this competition The meaning is to prove to Linda that you also have this ability. But..." Kovani hesitated to speak.
"No, Kovani, I think you're wrong. I wouldn't do anything for a woman who worships money. She doesn't deserve it. I only entered this literary competition because I really like Literature, and I plan to take the path of literature in the future." Kevin said to Kovani seriously.
After listening, Kovani stretched out his dark palm, and then placed it on Kevin's forehead, after making sure that the other party did not say the wrong thing because of a high fever. Only then did he say, "Kevin, you're really a bit abnormal today. You know, I've known you for so many years, and I haven't seen any master's literary works you like to read, let alone write."
Yes, the Kevin in his previous life had no extra money to buy literary works due to his poor family. This is also the reason why his literary ability is relatively poor.
"Don't worry, the lazy Kevin Stephen from before will no longer exist. Oh, Kovani, I'm sorry, I still have something to do at home, I think I need to leave."
"Okay, buddy, remember to be happy." Kovani still patted him on the shoulder to encourage.
Kevin's home is in an apartment in Edinburgh, not too far from the school. Therefore, after class every day, he would choose to go home and reunite with his family.
At this time, Kevin's parents were at work, and when they returned, Kevin was the only one in the room. This is a two-bedroom, one-living room. Kevin has a room for himself, and the other room is reserved for Kevin's parents. Although the room is not very big, it costs about 700 pounds a month.
There is a reason for Kevin to return home so early. After he has figured everything out, he intends to do something in this ordinary world of England, which is to fulfill his ideal on earth.
While on Earth, Kevin's ideal was to be a great writer. Unfortunately, due to bad luck, it was a big hit until the rebirth.
Now God has allowed him to come to England, where there are no literary works, and he must fulfill his ideal. Besides, this is a poor family, maybe writing a book will change all that.
So he wants to write a work of a literary master as soon as possible, and then submit it to the publishing house.
After drinking a glass of water in the living room, Kevin was about to turn around and go into the room to write a manuscript. There was a knock on the door outside.
"Hi, is your father there?" Kevin went to open the door, but found that it was Jobs, the landlord.
Landlord Jobs is an old man in his sixties, divorced. Occasionally, he would bring one or two beautiful women back to spend the spring night with him. Kevin had seen him take two big-ass women back to the room and they didn't leave until the next day.
"I'm very sorry, my father has gone to work and won't be back until evening." Kevin said truthfully.
Although he was reborn on this Kevin Stephen, he still retains all the memories of this person in his mind, and he knows everything in the parallel world clearly.
"Oh, then please tell him tonight that he has owed the rent for three days. It needs to be paid." Jobs said helplessly.
When Kevin heard this, he remembered that because his father hadn't paid his salary, he hadn't paid this month's rent.
"Okay, thank you. Dear Mr. Jobs."
After returning to the room, Kevin's heart could not be calm for a long time. This is a poor family, he was reborn here, something must be changed.
"It's unlucky. In a developed country like the UK, there are very few poor people. How come I was so unlucky that I was reborn into this poor family." Kevin couldn't help but sigh.
Sighing can't solve all problems. After returning to his room, Kevin began to think about whose masterpiece should be written down in the first book.
