The next day.
In the morning.
The country had already received the news.
"Teacher Zhang is going to do an interview?"
"Yeah, Central TV International!"
"This is the first time he's appeared on stage since breaking into the international entertainment circle."
"I'm looking forward to it. I heard it's a military show."
"China's military has shocked the world with this parade."
"That's right. Many foreign and even Western media outlets have reported on it. This is the first time that many of our military equipment and weapons have been shown to the public. Moreover, all of them are our latest self-developed equipment. Many of the weapons are world-leading.
"I want to hear what Zhang Ye has to say."
"Does he understand?"
"Pfft, have you forgotten who designed the latest generation of fighter jets?"
"Ah, right, right, Zhang Ye is a military research expert."
"I would like to see Zhang Ye's views on the military."
"Yes, when it comes to weapons research, Zhang Ye is still an authority."
The people were looking forward to it.
Media attention.
The military attached great importance to this.
Recently, everyone's attention was focused on the military. They were very interested in matters related to it, so when they heard that Zhang Ye would be appearing on the International Channel to do a military talk show, it immediately caused quite a lot of discussion. With the combination of Zhang Ye and the military, there was no need for any publicity at all. It was a natural attraction.
…
Meanwhile.
Central TV.
International Channel's recording studio.
Before the recording started, the guests and the host had already arrived.
What a coincidence that Zhang Ye actually knew all of them.
Zhang Ye greeted, "Fellow Chi, shall I be your partner today?"
Chi Xue was one of the few female academicians in the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Chi Xue smiled and shook his hand. "That's right, Fellow Zhang. It's been a while."
Zhang Ye laughed and said, "How could it be a long time? We even met at the State Science and Technology Awards."
On the other end, Yu Yingyi chuckled and said, "Are you two very familiar with each other? Then the program will be easy to handle. There's no need to break in beforehand. " Then she said to Chi Xue, "Hello, Fellow Chi. My name is Yu Yingyi, and I'm the host of this talk show. You can just call me Little Yu. Nice to meet you."
Chi Xue shook her hand. "Hello."
Zhang Ye said in amusement, "You've grown taller?"
Yu Yingyi rolled her eyes. "High heels."
Zhang Ye said, "When did you switch from the Sports Channel to the International Channel?"
"I just came over this year," Yu Yingyi said with a smile.
Chi Xue said in surprise, "You guys know each other too?"
Zhang Ye laughed and said, "I don't just know him. He's my university classmate."
The three of them chatted together.
The director also came over to communicate with them.
Suddenly, Zhang Ye's cell phone rang. When he saw the caller ID, he walked to the side to answer the call. It was from the military.
"Hello?"
"Fellow Zhang, I'm Old Li."
"Hello, General Li."
"Has the program started recording?"
"Not yet. You know about it too?"
"Of course I know. That's why I'm letting you know in advance. You know too many military secrets, so you can't say too much. You have to know your limits. You have to keep your mouth shut about projects that haven't been announced and related military secrets. You've signed a confidentiality agreement, so you can say whatever you want to say and what has been announced to the public. There are no restrictions on this.
"I understand."
"Also, this is an international channel. You'd better perform well. Who knows, the military organizations of various countries might be studying us, wanting to see our weapons construction and strategic thinking. Haha, now that all the countries have research organizations that specialize in China, it's fine to fool them when the time is right."
"Alright, got it."
After hanging up, Zhang Ye smiled.
Chi Xue asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Ye said, "General Li called to instruct us."
Chi Xue smiled and corrected him, "He instructed you to do so."
Zhang Ye was noncommittal.
The military did not inform Chi Xue and only informed Zhang Ye to pay attention to military secrets. Clearly, Zhang Ye knew more secrets than Chi Xue in the field of scientific research and military affairs. In recent years, Zhang Ye had come into contact with a lot of military information that Chi Xue had no access to.
Yu Yingyi looked at her watch. "It's about time."
A producer came up. "Teachers, please take a seat. Fellow Chi, please take a seat here. Fellow Zhang, please take a seat here. This is a recorded broadcast, so if you feel that something isn't right, you can stop it at any time. This is a microphone, so try to get closer to us when you speak, lest you miss us. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask us."
Yu Yingyi said in a speechless manner, "Ask you what?"
The producer blinked. "Ah?"
Yu Yingyi pointed at Zhang Ye and said with a smile, "The person sitting in front of you is a professional host who has won the most prestigious hosting award, yet you're still telling him what to look out for? What doesn't he know? "
The producer facepalmed as he recalled this matter. "Hai, I forgot all about it."
It had been too long since Zhang Ye had done a show. This year, he had even won the National Science and Technology Award and the Nobel Peace Prize, so many people had almost forgotten that this fellow used to be a professional host. Doing a show? Recording a show? He was the most senior of all seniors.
Testing the volume.
The equipment was adjusted.
Three.
Two.
One.
The recording began.
…
On the same night.
At 8 PM sharp.
Central TV International's Army Day special premiered.
The show was split into three episodes, and this was the first episode.
It was broadcast live worldwide, and the subtitles were in English.
…
In China.
"It's starting, it's starting!"
"It's starting!"
"Haha, Teacher Zhang is here!"
"I'm waiting to see Zhang Ye's professional commentary."
"He's hoping to reveal some secrets that the general public doesn't know about."
"Yeah, the military programs of the past only invited laymen. They claimed to be military experts, but they were actually just civilian military enthusiasts who had never really come into contact with the military or weapons research before. They purely relied on data and imagination to explain and analyze. But Zhang Ye is different. He's a true military expert and has participated in many weapons projects before, so he definitely knows more than others. He'll definitely be able to hear a lot of things this time."
…
India.
"Eh?"
"It's on China?"
"Isn't that Zhang Ye?"
"Damn, it's really him!"
"That damned fellow!"
"Let's listen to what he has to say!"
…
Japan.
"Zhang Ye is on the International Channel?"
"Why is it him?"
"A military expert?"
"Yes, I think he's the deputy chief designer of China's fighter jets."
"Let's listen to what he has to say first."
…
America.
"He's the Nobel Peace Prize winner?"
"China even has an International Channel?"
"I guess so, but I didn't notice it before."
"China's military parade was broadcast all over the world yesterday. It was very impressive."
"China's military strength is developing too quickly."
"Let's listen to it and see what new weapons and strategies they have up their sleeves."
…
Pakistan.
"It's our China bro!"
"I know him. It's Zhang Ye!"
"He's our all-weather ally."
"There's been a lot of commotion at the borders recently. Let's see what their experts have to say."
…
Canada.
"Quick, watch this. It's a military program from China."
"It's boring."
"Why? Don't you always watch military programs? "
"China's military programs have always been about peace, negotiations, and protests. Other than that, there's nothing else. It's really boring."
"Then I'll change the channel?"
"Forget it, let's just watch it."
…
Russia.
The UK.
France.
Korea.
Many countries were paying attention.
Without even mentioning China, Central TV International's viewership ratings were off the charts. Other than China, people from all over the world were also watching the program. Some of them had switched channels randomly, while others had deliberately tuned in after reading the news and comments online. Firstly, they were interested in China's military strength and strategy. Secondly, they were interested in Zhang Ye, who dared to trip someone at the Nobel Prize award ceremony.
As an international celebrity, the appeal of Zhang Ye's name was no longer limited to just China. It had even reached the entire world.
…
On TV.
Yu Yingyi smiled and said, "Hello, everyone. Welcome to Central TV International's Army Day special. We're honored to have Fellow Chi Xue of the Chinese Academy of Sciences with us today."
Chi Xue greeted, "Hello, everyone."
Yu Yingyi introduced, "We'll also be the famous scientist, mathematician, military expert, Fellow of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Fellow of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and Nobel Peace Prize winner, Zhang Ye."
Zhang Ye smiled. "Hello, everyone."
Yu Yingyi said, "It's Army Day."
Chi Xue said, "Yes."
Yu Yingyi asked, "Fellow Chi, what do you think of this year's military parade?"
Chi Xue smiled. "It's very shocking and very exciting."
Yu Yingyi smiled and said, "I feel the same way too. I feel that our country is getting stronger and stronger. Then let me ask you a sensitive question. Regarding the recent border dispute, what do you think?"
Chi Xue turned serious and said, "This is a provocation and a very serious matter. I think that everyone should sit down and negotiate. We should lay out the dispute and bring international law into play to see who is in the right. Let's see who crossed the line. The problem is actually very clear. "
Yu Yingyi nodded. She turned her head and said, "Fellow Zhang, what do you think?"
Zhang Ye smiled. "My opinion is different from Fellow Chi's."
"Oh?" Yu Yingyi said, "What's your opinion?"
Zhang Ye said calmly, "There's nothing much to say. Just get him!"
Yu Yingyi said, "Ah?"
Get … get him!
What kind of words were those!
Chi Xue rolled her eyes.
The entire studio fell silent!
Zhang Ye said, "We advocate peace and hope for peace. But when it comes to undisputed territorial disputes, there's nothing much to say. Let's do it! We'll just attack them when they show up! If you're worried that this kind of dispute will lead to war, then you're overthinking it. It's impossible. They're not in the right, so it's pointless to fight them. Do you really expect them to fight back? That's impossible. They don't have the guts, nor do they have the strength, nor do they have international law. So what else is there to say? Sometimes, we need to let the whole world see China's determination to uphold peace. That's why we're going to get him! "
Yu Yingyi was speechless.
Chi Xue was speechless.
The Chinese people were speechless.
The world's citizens were speechless.
Get him?
Get him?
Get him?
What kind of language is that!
Aren't your words too crude!
Are … are these the fucking words of a Nobel Peace Prize laureate?!
When have you ever seen a Nobel Peace Prize laureate speak like that!
