Such a beautiful scene needs no praise, as I lean on the railing at dusk to admire the sunset. The fairy rides a yellow crane away for nothing, while the distant mountains are blanketed by white clouds. A long bridge spans three kilometers across the water, and the bustling city lights illuminate millions of homes. This renowned building is imbued with ancient charm, its songs still accompanied by the pipa.
Recently, 60-year-old Zhou Guozhi boldly proclaimed at his home that his poetry has surpassed Li Bai and Du Fu in certain areas, even Su Dongpo's poems are "merely enough for accompaniment." "I believe there is no one in the whole country who can defeat me." "Poets across the nation, I consider myself a poetic madman, so come and challenge my poetry if you dare. If you win, I will award 100,000 yuan, and I will not go back on my word." However, behind this "arrogant statement," Zhou Guozhi has his own plans. "Through media hype, it will be easier for me to publish my own collection of poems in the future."
