Zao Wou-Ki wanted to continue. President Reagan thanked him for saving his life and naturally wanted to continue accompanying him. However, the White House Press Secretary, Ms. Helen, was still shaking because she was a woman, so Secretary of State Yagor had to take over the microphone.
: "Now, I would like to invite Mr. Zhao Wuji from China to give a speech of thanks!"
Zao Wuki walked to the microphone, calmed down his emotions for a while, and then began his first speech on his trip to the United States:
"Ladies and gentlemen, President Reagan and the American people gave me roses and friendship, but someone sent me muskets and bullets! This incident shows that human beings have become incompatible with each other due to differences in interests and beliefs.
To be compatible with each other, a few extremists did not hesitate to take risks and resort to force! However, as you all witnessed, President Reagan was not intimidated. He still smiled. The Chinese youth who came for friendship were not intimidated either. Their
The body remains upright! And I believe that the great American people will not be intimidated by this kind of terrorism!"
This paragraph can be regarded as Zao Wuji's opening remarks.
"Ladies and gentlemen, China is a great country, even a mysterious country. The production technology of ceramics, which is loved by people all over the world, has been passed down for thousands of years, but the craft masters of other countries have not fully mastered it.
; The craftsmanship of cloisonné, which is twin sister to ceramics, is world-renowned; in addition, Chinese painting art and calligraphy art are different from ordinary art categories. They not only directly point to the human heart, nourish the temperament, but also have countless data
Proof: long-term practice of these arts is also beneficial to people’s health, which means longevity for the elderly.”
This section is an introduction to Chinese culture.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am just a learner and inheritor of China's profound history and culture. If I have made any achievements, it is the result of the Chinese landscape and culture that raised me. In China, people like me
There are at least thousands of them who quietly stick to their own culture in their work and life. They stick to their own inheritance and make their own efforts to diversify the world's culture; of course, in the great United States of America,
There are also a large number of people who stick to culture. They are the wise men of this era, and they are the leaders for us to go back from the present to the past and experience history."
This paragraph explains Zao Wou-ki's relationship with Chinese culture and his praise of American culture.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in today's world, technology is constantly changing, and any technological invention can only lead the way for three to five years. Only culture is the immortal creation of mankind, it is the refuge of mankind, and it is the last spirit of mankind.
Home. If we say that material power represented by industrial technology and technological innovation is the hard power of a country;
Then, culture represented by philosophical thought, literature and art, folk crafts, historical inheritance, customs and habits is the softest and warmest part of human life. It mainly focuses on human spiritual life, and it represents a country and a nation.
Soft power!”
The reborn Zao Wu-Ki, plus he has actually learned some things, it is not too difficult to come up with some quite innovative ideas.
"This time, at the invitation of President Reagan and the U.S. government, I was able to visit the United States and receive the honorary title of 'Youth Ambassador of China in the United States' personally awarded by President Reagan. This is not my personal glory. It is the honor of the entire China.
The glory of youth is a testimony of Chinese culture going global, a true embodiment of the open and free mentality of the American people, and an epoch-making event that has enabled the two great nations of China and America to deepen their understanding in the fields of culture and customs!
I believe that the next activities of my delegation and I in the United States will definitely allow American youths to appreciate what the splendid Chinese civilization is, and the American people will definitely appreciate the wisdom and enthusiasm and inclusiveness of the Chinese people.
Heart! Thank you everyone, thank you Mr. President, this is the end of my speech."
In fact, when Zao Wou-ki first started talking about friendship and roses, muskets and bullets, countless long guns and short cannons were placed in front of Zao Wu-ki. At the same time, reporters were recording quickly. These views, even for American youths, are
It was unheard of. They were so novel and innovative, and so appropriate. They completely touched the hearts of the reporters on the scene.
As for President Reagan and American officials, they were amazed not only by Zao Wou-ki's proficiency in English, but also by Zao's profound understanding of culture. Perhaps the US government should indeed conduct more cultural exchanges with the world.
Didn’t the Chinese say that if you know your enemy and yourself, you can fight a hundred battles without danger? If you don’t understand the other party’s culture, how can you better spread the culture and values of the United States?
"Pa bang bang..." There was warm applause at the scene. Most Chinese people didn't understand, but when the Americans applauded, the Chinese people naturally also applauded enthusiastically! This Zao Wuji is awesome, he is awesome wherever he goes.
, not only is he extremely skilled, he took a bullet for President Reagan, but he is also so eloquent, my God, do you want us to live?
Li Chengyun, one of the official representatives, was still unconvinced by Zhao Wuji at this time, but he knew that with his family, it was impossible to block Zhao Wuji's progress. Zhao Wuji acted like this, and there was absolutely no trace of what he wanted to do.
Ordinary people really have no way to deal with him.
"Ms. Helen, we would like to question Mr. Zao Wuki on the spot, please allow us to do so," a reporter said loudly.
"Yes, please invite Mr. Zao Wou-Ki to hold an on-site press conference. We have many questions and need Mr. Zao Wou-Ki to explain." Another reporter also shouted.
Ms. Helen was a little shy just now because of fear. At this time, seeing the reporter asking such a question, she had no choice but to turn her eyes to Secretary of State Mr. Younger, and then to President Mr. Reagan.
President Reagan also wanted to hear what else Zhao Wuji had to say, so he nodded slightly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now we move to the White House Press Room, and Mr. Zao Wou-Ki will answer reporters' questions." Of course Helen couldn't let President Reagan stand on the lawn of the White House for too long. Returning to the Press Room, there were
Drinking tea, having a seat to sit on, and turning on the air conditioning, no matter what, it is a pleasure.
As a result, President Reagan retreated to the White House under the protection of the security guards. Just now, Reagan had the courage to stand here, but he actually took a big risk. In a sense, it also gave Zhao Wuji face. After all,
Zhao Wuji just saved him once.
As for Zhao Wuji, he regarded the assassination as the effect of the reborn butterfly wings, which did not arouse his special vigilance. As for the assassin or killer, Zhao Wuji would naturally come to greet him at night.
"Mr. Zhao Wuji, Mr. Gongsunyan, and all young friends, please come in too!" Secretary of State Yagor did not forget his etiquette and greeted the Chinese youth delegation in time.
Because of the unexpected incident of the assassination, the originally arranged half-hour meeting between President Reagan and Zao Wou-Ki came to nothing. However, in the face of this situation, China had nothing to say.
Besides, the meeting between President Reagan and Zao Wou-Ki was not a political meeting, let alone a business meeting. It was purely a formality that focused on friendship and was not a specialized meeting. The leader and head of the delegation and the ambassador to the United States were there during these few days.
We briefly exchanged opinions on the walk and thought it didn't matter. And it seems President Reagan will not leave, so he may also want to hear how Zhao Wou-ki answers reporters' questions.
However, Zhao Wuji was very knowledgeable.
Because, Zao Wou-Ki has some profound thoughts and wants to exchange views with President Reagan, or in other words, wants to influence President Reagan’s thinking. Of course, Zao Wou-Ki believes that even without meeting, Zao Wou-Ki can pass the meeting at Harvard University tomorrow
His speech indirectly influenced President Reagan.
The media, audience, protagonists, etc. quickly came to the press hall and took their seats. President Reagan, Secretary of State Younger, and Chinese Ambassador to the United States Mr. Gong Sunyan were sitting together, talking quietly about something.
Press spokesperson Helen walked to the podium and shook the microphone: "Mr. Zao Wou-ki, please come to the stage and take a seat!"
"Mr. Zao Wou-Ki, I am Alice, a reporter from the North American Youth Daily. Can you introduce yourself, such as your family and your growth experience?" As soon as Zao Wu-Ki sat down, a beautiful reporter who looked like a college student took the lead in asking.
.
Zhao Wou-Ki is a young man, and a young man visiting America. Perhaps because of this, colleagues in the media gave her the first opportunity.
"Thank you, Miss Alice. I am 24 years old this year, and my birthday is the day before the Independence Day of the United States, so I am very destined to the United States. According to you Americans, although I am currently working and able to support myself, but
I haven't formed my own independent family yet.
My father is an ordinary civil servant in China, a respectable elder who is dedicated to his work. My mother was a teacher before and is now engaged in general management work in the education department of my hometown. When I was very young,
, my mother’s requirements for me are quite strict; I have a younger brother, two years younger than me, who is currently studying at Kaixia Kyoto University;
In addition, I have a fiancée who works as a teacher in a primary school in our hometown. The two of us are very loving. As long as I have time, every day after dinner, I will accompany him shopping in the county town of my hometown, watching the night scenery, street lights, and pedestrians.
and changes in the city.”
"About my growth experience, there is actually nothing worth talking about. We in China have a word called Sudden Enlightenment. Etymologically speaking, Sudden Enlightenment is a word from Buddhism. It talks about the understanding and perception of life. Sudden Enlightenment is
Suddenly I thought clearly, and suddenly gained inspiration. Perhaps, my growth can be explained by an epiphany."
"Hello, Mr. Zao Wou-Ki. I am Mark Spann, a reporter from Pan-Mi TV. Our camera just captured you throwing the gold medal as the bullets flew. My question is: you
Was his behavior at that time based on instinct or a confident skill? He actually intercepted the bullet!
Moreover, we also found that the moment you threw the gold coin medal, you used your tall body to cover our President Reagan. Can you explain why you were able to do this?
Are you naturally brave? Or is your judgment accurate and you believe that there will be no subsequent bullets coming?" (To be continued.,,,. Mobile users please go to read
ps: Hey, I made some small mistakes in the first two chapters between Washington, New York and Boston. I will add an update now and apologize for it. It seems that you can't take it for granted when writing a manuscript...
