Let $n$ be a natural number and $f_1$, $f_2$, ..., $f_n$ be polynomials with integers coeffcients. Show that there exists a polynomial $g(x)$ which can be factored (with at least two terms of degree at least $1$) over the integers such that $f_i(x)+g(x)$ cannot be factored (with at least two terms of degree at least $1$) over the integers for every $i$.
