"Each of us is born into this world, and the final destination is death. Does it mean that loving life and enjoying life is meaningless?"
"I disagree with the example given by the other debater. We don't have the right to choose whether to come to this world, but today's debate topic gives us the right to choose. If the ending of something is destined to be bad, why waste our limited life to do something that has no result?"
"I would like to remind the opposing debaters that the word 'if' in the title is an indefinite noun. Since the word 'if' is used, it means that the ending is not necessarily bad."
"Then according to the logic of the affirmative debater, a good ending must be a low-probability event. Don't we need to estimate the success rate when we do something? If the success rate is extremely low, should the affirmative debater bite the bullet and continue to do it?"
“If you don’t even dare to do it, then there will be no good ending at all, and you will never see the beauty along the way.”
After the first debater's argument and the transition from attack to question, both sides had accumulated enough anger and started to challenge each other in the free debate.
This is the match point.
It was like a quarrel between two aunties in the vegetable market. Without the previous rules to restrain them, both sides began to talk incessantly.
The audience in the auditorium were also moved and straightened their backs subconsciously.
In fact, this is the part Jiang Qin has been waiting for.
He felt that the affirmative contestants were like little angels wearing white clothes, with small wings and a halo on their heads.
The opposing player is a little demon wearing black clothes and with horns on his head... uh, a little devil.
Just like in the cartoons, they kept outputting completely opposite viewpoints, directly targeting the original intention of the person who set the question.
“The ending is what matters most!”
“The process was wonderful!”
“Choice is more important than hard work. Don’t do things with a low probability of success. We can still do things with a high success rate.”
“Failure is the mother of success. Those who don’t even dare to try are called cowards. There are many things in this world that may not succeed if you try, but every failure is a growth.”
Jiang Qin, who was sitting in the audience, touched his nose and thought to himself, why is the third debater of the affirmative side still cursing? What a coward.
This deserves a deduction, right? A heavy deduction!
"I think today's debate topic can be illustrated by love. Many campus romances end after graduation. I once met a senior who graduated many years ago and deeply regretted his decision."
"The other debater's example is very good. In fact, most of us here understand that graduation season is breakup season, but most of you should have a partner, right? That means the process is still worth it!"
"Since the chances of a campus romance being successful are extremely low, why not spend your time studying?"
"If you truly love someone, how could you give up the tenderness of this moment for the uncertainty of the future? Are you willing to do that?"
Jiang Qin opened his eyes wide and wondered what was wrong with Zheng Fang. It was fine if he just cursed at people, but why was he talking so much nonsense
What the hell is tenderness? This will result in a big deduction of points!
“It is irresponsible to persist without considering the success rate!”
"If you consider the success rate before doing something, you will always be mediocre!"
"If the affirmative team loses today, will you still enjoy the process?"
"Then if you lose, would you also think that you don't even dare to come today?"
Neither side gave in, and in the blink of an eye, there was little time left for free debate.
In this evenly matched situation, many debaters will make some questioning speeches to break the opponent's defense. For example, a girl on the third debater of the opposing side stared at the third debater of the affirmative side.
"Do you have someone you like?"
"What?"
"You like a girl but don't consider whether you can give her a future. You only care about being gentle. You don't like her... you are just lustful. You just gave a very inappropriate example."
The debater on the opposing side stood up, flicked her braids, and pointed directly at the third debater on the affirmative side who had just said the word "tender".
The affirmative debater was stunned by the word "lecherous". When he came to his senses and was about to refute, the referee in the audience had already rang the bell.
"The free debate session is over."
"Next, please give your closing remarks, both sides."
A fierce verbal battle came to an end, and the debaters on both sides began to summarize their debate speeches. The score sheets of each judge were also collected in the hands of the scorer, who began to calculate the scores on the spot.
Everyone in the auditorium also came back to their senses from the fierce confrontation, took a long breath, and sat back in their chairs.
After a while, the summary session ended, the host got the total score, announced the result of the game on the spot, the pros and cons shook hands with each other, and the scene was full of joy.
"I heard that you recommended this debate topic?" Zhang Baiqing suddenly turned around and asked.
Jiang Qin nodded: "Yes, there are some things that I can't figure out, so I'd like to borrow your brains to think about it."
Zhang Baiqing looked at him: "Are you satisfied with this result?"
"have no idea."
"If you think the success rate is low, my advice is to just stop doing it. Your forum is already pretty good, there's no need to make it more complicated."
Zhang Baiqing thought that he chose this topic in order to start a business, so he kindly advised him.
"Okay, Principal. I will definitely consider it seriously."
Jiang Qin agreed sincerely, then took Feng Nanshu out of the auditorium.
But before they stepped out of the door, there was a sudden cry from outside, as if something unexpected had happened.
The two people walked out with curiosity and found that there was a heavy snowfall in the night sky. In just a short moment, the entire campus became a vast expanse of white.
Such heavy snow is rare even in northern cities. The security guard who was responsible for guiding the car turned into a snowman in an instant.
"Jiang Qin, is it snowing?"
Feng Nanshu stretched out his hand, caught a snowflake, and handed it to Jiang Qin.
Jiang Qin took a look and couldn't help but look up at the sky. Looking at the falling snowflakes, he looked a little lost.
He felt a little regretful. He should have driven here earlier. Why did he have to walk
"Let's ask Uncle Gong to come pick us up. The snow won't stop any time soon."
"good."
Feng Nanshu took out his cell phone from his pocket and called Uncle Gong.
She really listened to Jiang Qin. She listened to everything Jiang Qin said without any hesitation.
At the same time, a figure ran out from the crowded crowd, quickly squeezed through the crowd and came in front of Jiang Qin.
"Junior, can I publish my serial novel on your forum?"
Yao Yanling, the overbearing senior from the literature club, lowered her posture at this time and asked this question in an almost requesting tone.
"Forget it, senior sister. I am a vulgar person and I don't understand your noble literature."
"That was just angry talk. It's my fault. I'm sorry."
"I accept your apology, but I've said before that your novel doesn't meet the requirements of our website. I'm a businessman, not a literature lover. I want works that can drive traffic."
Jiang Qin directly rejected her request.
"Does Miaomiao's novel meet the requirements then? Is her novel more valuable than mine?" Yao Yanling gritted her teeth.
"It's not for me to judge. This is the answer given by all the students in the school. Just look at the popularity of "You Are the Color of Fireworks" and you will know that all the teachers and students in the school love her."
Yao Yanling took a deep breath and said, "I don't need the royalties, but you need to give me a chance to prove myself!"
Jiang Qin sighed: "Senior, didn't you watch the debate just now? The opposing side won. If the ending is destined to be bad, it's best not to even start, so as not to be hit and sink forever."
"So what? I am confident that my work must be better than Shi Miaomiao's. If you don't accept it, I will publish it myself. You will see that everyone is chasing after my "Lonely City"!"
"That's great. I'm looking forward to that moment too. After all, if you're popular, I'll make money. Come on, senior sister. Prove it to me."
By the time Jiang Qin finished speaking, the black Bentley had already arrived at the door of the auditorium. Uncle Gong rolled down the window and called out "Master" and "Miss" in public.
So, amid the astonished gazes of the crowd, Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu got into the car and slowly left in the snowy night, leaving only a graceful back view to the people watching the snow.
"Fuck, who was that person who just left in the Bentley?"
"Linda's first study star, Jiang Qin!"
"What is the Study Star? Why haven't I heard of it?"
“I don’t know, but it’s probably pretty cool.”
"That girl is so beautiful. I didn't see her clearly in the room just now. She is so stunning."
"That's the boss lady, Feng Nanshu."
"Whose boss lady?"
"How should I know where to go? I only heard six words."
At the same time, in the back seat of the Bentley, Jiang Qin leaned against the door, staring at the outside covered with snow leaves, and did not speak for a long time.
Feng Nanshu also silently clasped her hands together, with a cold look in her eyes, no different from an ordinary rich girl.
She didn't know what tonight's debate meant to Jiang Qin, but she felt that he seemed a little unhappy, so she became unhappy too.
After a long time, the slow Bentley finally drove back to the main campus of Linda University. The campus was full of people with heavy snow. Some were catching snowflakes with their hands, and some were throwing snowballs at each other.
This is the first snow in 2008, and the students of Linyi University can't help but be excited.
Especially people from the south, like Zhou Chao, got excited instantly when they saw the snow and had fun playing wildly in the snow in front of the dormitory building.
"Brother Jiang, this way!"
"Are you so excited about the snow?"
Zhou Chao rolled a snowball: "I rarely saw you before. By the way, where were you doing?"
Jiang Qin squatted down in a place where he wouldn't get wet, and reached out to brush the snow off his shoulders: "I went to watch a debate."
"You still have this kind of taste?"
"The debate topic is something I have been thinking about. I can't make up my mind, so I want to crowdfund an answer." Jiang Qin's eyes were somewhat deep.
Zhou Chao was confused and didn't ask in detail: "So do you have an answer now?"
"Well, there is an answer."
"tell me the story?"
"Debates are all fucking lies, they can't be trusted!"
