At the venue.
The surroundings were deathly silent!
It was so quiet that one could hear Bangalore falling from his chair!
It was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a few Nobel Prize candidates spitting out water!
Zhang Ye's body was still slanted as he sat on his chair in an unruly posture. His hands were still in the same position as when he was chatting with Anthony and Felicia, but his head was looking at the stage, at the organizer, and at the award card in his hand. He had a dumbfounded look on his face!
Little Wang's jaw dropped. "W-What did he say?"
Ha Qiqi said in horror, "Zhang Ye?"
Felicia looked as if her tail had been stepped on. "A Chinese writer?"
Anthony was going crazy. "The Nobel Peace Prize?!"
Zhang Ye pointed at his nose in disbelief, "Are you talking about me?"
Bangalore's expression changed. "This, this is impossible!"
If the recipient was Zhang Ye, everyone would definitely think that it was someone with the same name and surname. However, when the award was being announced, the organizer added a prefix to his name, which was "China Writer". To be able to use the prefix "China Writer" on such an occasion, there could only be one person named Zhang Ye!
In an instant, everyone stared at him in shock!
In an instant, all the live cameras of the media from all over the world were focused on him!
At this moment, screams rang out from the audience!
"Heavens!"
"Peace Prize?"
"A Chinese?"
"My God!"
"This — this —"
"Someone tell me what happened!"
"This is the Nobel Peace Prize we're talking about!"
"It's the biggest Nobel Prize!"
"Is there a mistake?"
"Did the Nobel Foundation make a mistake?"
In front of the television.
His parents were dumbfounded!
His parents-in-law were dumbfounded!
Zhang Ye's three sisters were dumbfounded!
The staff of Zhang Ye's Studio were dumbfounded!
Yao Jiancai was dumbfounded!
Ning Lan was dumbfounded!
Spring Garden was dumbfounded!
China!
Japan!
Korea!
America!
England!
Russia!
The citizens of all the countries in the world were dumbfounded!
The people of the world stared blankly at their televisions, unable to believe their ears!
Not to mention them, even Zhang Ye, who was sitting in the audience, did not believe it at all. He might have thought of the Literature Prize, the Mathematics Prize, or even the Physics Prize, but the Nobel Peace Prize? He had never thought about it before! He didn't even have the slightest bit of concern!
Me?
Peace Prize?
Are you kidding me?
How could this award have anything to do with me in this life?
Suddenly, Little Wang exclaimed, "Director Zhang! Repeal the Racial Discrimination Act! "
Ha Qiqi suddenly thought of something. "There's still the Russian peace talks!"
Zhang Ye was stunned. "Ah?"
Discrimination Act?
Russian peace talks?
What the hell does this have to do with me!
At this moment, the Nobel Foundation's director looked at Zhang Ye with a smile on the podium. He picked up the microphone and said, "This is the first time that the Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded on the spot. Would the recipient please come onstage to receive the award and give an acceptance speech?" With a pause, he added, "Teacher Zhang Ye, please come onstage."
Anthony pushed him. "Zhang! Go quickly! "
Felicia said excitedly, "Zhang! Hurry up and receive your award! Hurry up and receive your award! "
Only then did Zhang Ye stand up dumbly.
Countless people stared blankly at the person in charge!
It was only then that they remembered that the person in charge of the Nobel Prize Foundation was a black man!
Bangalore had gone mad!
A lot of the people at the venue had gone mad!
Their brains no longer knew what to think. If not for Zhang Ye's kick, they might not have reacted so strongly. But what had just happened? The entire world had seen it. The Chinese man had tripped the Nobel Prize winner in Literature to the ground in front of a global live broadcast. What a scammer! What a hooligan! What a guy with a belly full of violent genes!
The Nobel Peace Prize?
Fuck your sister!
Th-This doesn't fucking make sense!
There must be a mistake somewhere!
Zhang Ye walked up to the podium.
"This is the first time that the Peace Prize has been awarded to a writer. A novel has allowed America to repeal its last act of racial discrimination. A novel has saved the people of Russia and many neighboring countries from the baptism of war. A novel has made the entire world realize the horror of war and the importance of national unity. It has freed hundreds of millions, or even billions, of people from the effects of war. Today, I am very proud and honored to be able to present this award to you."
Zhang Ye received it in a daze.
The director gestured for him to take the podium and then walked off.
The rest of the time was left to Zhang Ye.
The media reporters' cameras were all aimed at him in shock!
At this moment, the entire world's eyes were on Zhang Ye's face!
Everyone knew that the Chinese man had never prepared a speech. Perhaps he had prepared one, but it was definitely for the acceptance speech of the Literature Prize!
Zhang Ye picked up the microphone and did not know what to say.
Is it really me?
Is it really me?
Hans wiped his sweat away. "Even Zhang doesn't believe it!"
Anna could also tell. "Who can believe it!"
Paige gave a wry smile. "Does the Russian negotiations and America's repeal really have anything to do with him?"
Beside her, a mathematician also said, "Let's see what he has to say."
Ha Qiqi clenched her fists. "You can do it, Director Zhang!"
Little Wang said anxiously, "Say it! Say it quickly! "
Then Zhang Ye spoke.
On the stage.
Right here.
Just today.
Zhang Ye gave a speech that shocked the world!
He looked into the camera and at everyone. "I have a dream. I dream that one day, America will stand up and truly live up to the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.' I dream that one day, in the land of Africa, the sons of former slaves will be able to sit together with the sons of former slave owners, sharing brotherhood. I dream that one day, even India, a place where justice is absent and oppression is the norm, will become an oasis of freedom and justice. I dream that one day, the valleys will rise and the mountains will descend; the rough and winding road will become smooth, and the holy light will shine upon the world! "
Everyone at the venue was stunned!
The people watching TV were also dumbfounded!
Some of them felt their blood boiling!
Some of them felt like vomiting blood!
Like Bangalore, who nearly blew his top!
India?
Justice is absent?
Oppression is the norm?
Fuck your grandpa!
Zhang Ye said loudly, "That is our hope. With this belief, we will be able to carve out a stone of hope from the Ridge of Despair. With this belief, we will be able to turn the harsh quarrels of this country into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this belief, we will be able to work together, pray together, fight together, go to jail together, and maintain peace together. Because we know that one day, we will have peace. "
Each voice was louder than the last!
Each voice was louder than the last!
Zhang Ye raised his hands.
"Let the sound of peace ring from the lofty mountains of America!
"Let the sound of peace ring from the lofty mountains of India!
"Let the sound of peace ring from the snow-covered mountains of Russia!
"Let the sound of peace ring from the volcanoes of the Atlantic Ocean!
"Let the sound of peace ring from every mountainside of the world!!!"
The venue was shocked!
The world was shocked!
Of course, this was the first time they had heard this speech. But if someone from Zhang Ye's previous world was here, they would definitely find it very familiar, very familiar, very familiar — this was the greatest speech that Zhang Ye had ever given in his previous world, "I Have a Dream"!
Immediately, applause rang out!
Anthony jumped up. "Bravo!"
Felicia was extremely excited. "Well said!"
Little Wang's hands turned red from clapping. "Well done, Director Zhang!"
Ha Qiqi was so excited that her pores were popping open!
This is great!
What a great speech!
Director Zhang was indeed Director Zhang. He would never drop the ball at such a critical moment. So what if he did not prepare a speech? What's wrong with not preparing a speech? That was Zhang Ye! No matter the occasion, no matter the time, he never needed a script!
Applause!
Scream!
Cheers!
Many people listened to this speech and couldn't help but applaud!
Many people from the Nobel Prize Foundation also nodded and stood up to applaud!
The Japanese author rolled his eyes!
Bangalore also felt like he was going crazy! Do you have a dream? Let the sound of peace ring? As if I'd believe you! You don't even have a draft when you're bragging!
The number one hacker in the world!
Panda Burning Incense had destroyed Korea before!
Made weapons for China!
Smashed a Japanese hotel!
He had beaten a Korean celebrity!
He even played dirty tricks at the Nobel Prize award ceremony!
There was no other person like him in this world!
Such a world-famous bastard!
Nobel Peace Prize?
What the fuck, are you guys kidding me?!
Which eye of yours saw the word "peace" in this bastard?!
Onstage.
At this moment, Zhang Ye was feeling very conflicted. Even he felt that this matter was a little nonsensical. He had thought that it would be pretty good if he could win a Literature Prize, but never could he have expected that he would actually win a Nobel Peace Prize that was even more prestigious than the Nobel Prize in Literature!
