Chapter 645 Simple Communication Can Still Be Done
When human beings look up at the starry sky, the stars move and the moon rotates, and it seems that human civilization will also rotate, develop, and go further.
Kant once said that there are two things in the world. The more deeply and persistently he thinks about them, the wonder and awe they arouse in his heart will change and grow with each passing day. These two things are the starry sky above his head and the starry sky in his heart.
moral imperatives.
Although due to the popularity of "The Last Starfish", many people feel suffocating and depressed by the vast starry sky above their heads. However, after savoring it carefully, people's pursuit and desire to explore the starry sky has gone further.
If there really are existences like superlords and superintelligent beings in the universe, then people should work hard to find them themselves.
Being an active seeker is always more acceptable than sitting on a starfish and waiting silently.

"Dad, this building is so beautiful."
In the square in front of the Hamburg City Hall, Pengpeng raised his head and looked at the ancient building in front of him. The Baroque-style city hall was very attractive. Compared with the Paris City Hall they visited in Paris before, the Hamburg City Hall
Not inferior to it.
Like the Paris City Hall, there are many exquisite statues on the top of the Hamburg City Hall. The most eye-catching thing about the entire city hall is the towering tower, which reaches into the sky like a sword.
Zhang Zhong smiled and said nothing because he saw Hamburg Mayor Hummels walking towards them.
Not long after the signing list was announced, the Hamburg City Government contacted Chen Qing. They hoped to invite Zhang Zhong to visit the Hamburg City Hall the day before the signing. At that time, Mayor Hummels would personally
Reception.
In order to receive Zhang Zhong today, the Hamburg City Hall stopped accepting tourists for one day. A small walkway was also blocked off in the square, and a red carpet was laid on the ground.
Because Hamburg officials kept a low profile, the public did not know about Zhang Zhong’s visit to Hamburg City Hall beforehand.
However, when passing tourists saw this gesture, they naturally knew who they were welcoming, so they all stood not far away and watched.
Zhang Zhong took a few steps forward with his family, smiled and held Hummels' outstretched palm, "Hello, Mr. Mayor."
Hummels was a little surprised, because Zhang Zhong's greeting was actually in German, and it sounded very fluent and standard.
The translator next to him was also a little confused. His duty was to help the mayor and Zhang Zhong communicate easily, but Zhang Zhong spoke fluent German, which caught him off guard and didn't know what to do.
However, what Zhang Zhong said is still a bit simpler. Maybe Zhang Zhong learned it temporarily out of politeness.
So after Hummels said, "Mr. pz, on behalf of the people of Hamburg, I welcome your arrival and congratulate you in advance on the success of the autograph session." The translator translated the mayor's words into Chinese and spoke to Zhang Zhong.
Zhang Chong smiled again and said in Chinese, "Thank you, these are my family."
Without introducing them one by one, Hummels nodded slightly and said hello, "Welcome."
When Zhang Zhong said that sentence in Chinese, the translator breathed a sigh of relief. He finally had something to use.
In fact, Zhang Zhong does not need to speak Chinese, but considering that none of his family members understand German, he still uses Chinese to communicate with each other so that his family can listen to their conversation.
Under the leadership of Hummels, everyone first entered the first-floor hall of the city hall.
The hall on the first floor has two rows of sixteen thick stone pillars. Each stone pillar is surrounded by exquisite statues of figures, a total of sixty-four figures.
These portraits are all celebrities in the history of Hamburg, including dramatist Lessing, musician Brahms and physicist Hertz, etc.
These statues are lifelike, but these historical figures are so old that even Zhang Zhong would not know who they were without Hummels' careful explanation.
After visiting the first floor, the group went to the second floor.
The second floor is the power center of the city hall, which can also be said to be the power center of Hamburg.
Because they only received Zhang Zhong's family, the reception team at the city hall was not large. The mayor and a dozen government officials walked around the second floor.
Later in the parliament hall, Hummels asked Zhang Zhong to fetch the guest book and invite him to sign.
The VIP book is a thick one, and usually VIPs visiting Hamburg will leave their names on it. Before Zhang Zhong, the person who left his name on the previous page was the No. 2 leader of China.
After Zhang Zhong finished writing his name in the guest book, someone brought in a small-arm-long sailboat model.
This sailboat model is very simple, about thirty centimeters long, covered in brown, with two sails on it, and it looks inconspicuous.
Hummels handed the sail to Zhang Zhong, "Pz, this is a gift for you. I hope you can fight against the wind and waves in the future and never stop."
Zhang Zhong took the sailboat model, then smiled at the staff who were taking pictures. After the staff took a picture of him receiving the gift, he handed the sailboat to his father, and then said to Hummels, "
I also prepared a gift for your city."
"Oh, really?" Hummels laughed, "I'm really looking forward to it."
Zhang Zhong smiled and nodded to Xu Yuhan, then Xu Yuhan took out a painting from the painting bucket he had been holding.
Hummels immediately asked two staff members to help unfold the calligraphy and painting.
After seeing the words above, the staff member in charge of translation was immediately stunned, because the words above were beyond his ability.
Although he knew every word, it was difficult for him to translate it.
Zhang Zhong knew that this calligraphy would be difficult to translate, so he pointed at the calligraphy and painting and read it again without waiting for translation, "What is above is government, what is below is the emotion that governs, and what is not below is chaos."
In fact, it was a very simple sentence. If the translator was given some time, he should be able to translate it. However, Zhang Zhong could not wait for him. After reading it in Chinese, he explained it to Hummels in German, "This
The meaning of the sentence is that as a leader in charge of political affairs, if he can get the following true situation, the society can be well governed; if he cannot get the following true situation, the society will be turbulent."
After hearing Zhang Zhong’s explanation, Hummels was surprised and said, “Pz, your German is so good?”
The translator also reflexively translated this sentence into Chinese.
But after the translation, he felt a little stupid. Zhang Zhong's German was so good, why did he need to translate?
In fact, his translation is still necessary. After all, although Zhang Zhong can understand it, the others who came with Mr. Zhang cannot understand it.
Zhang Chong smiled and said in Chinese, "Simple communication is still possible."
