You should know that the Poetry Association’s annual competition has gone fifteen years without anyone successfully challenging the theme poem.
As soon as Chu Qingqiu stepped onto the stage, he announced that a new poem had already surpassed the pre-selected piece, instantly capturing everyone’s interest. Standing there with great composure, he said, "In fact, you have all heard this poem before. Many of you have heard it. It is 'Shuidiao Getou' by I Am Not the Song God. It was originally released as a song. But the very foundation of our poetry has always been that it should be catchy and melodic; after all, poetry and song have always gone hand in hand. Our panel of experts has reviewed 'Shuidiao Getou' and unanimously agreed that it surpasses our pre-selected poem. That is why the theme poem has been replaced."
As Chu Qingqiu made his announcement, the original text of "Shuidiao Getou" appeared on the screen behind him, and he began to recite it with deep emotion.
