Chapter 444: Place Organizing Committee Comes to China

Yanjing, a luxurious hotel in a private room. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The private room is large, with two large tables in it, enough to accommodate twenty or thirty people to dine together. And at this moment, these two big tables are also full of people.

In addition to these foreigners, there were also several Chinese, one of whom was Wang Long, who was currently the most popular Chinese in Chinese history, and the rest were his friends and students.

And these dozen or so blonde and blue-eyed foreigners are members of the Pulis Award Organizing Committee, and one of them is Smith, who has communicated with Wang Lung.

After Smith and the other members of the organizing committee came to Huaxia, Wang Lung immediately received them and entertained them in the best hotel in Yanjing.

At this moment, the atmosphere at the wine table is warm, and everyone has a smile on their faces, which seems to be very harmonious.

"Professor Wang, I'm here to toast you, tomorrow after we hold the award ceremony, you will be the new winner of the Place Prize, and the first winner of the Place Award in China, congratulations." Smith raised his glass and said to Wang Lung with a smile in English.

As a well-known historian, Wang Lung often needs to go abroad for exchanges, and English conversation is naturally nothing to him.

After hearing Smith's words, the smile on his face was even brighter, the Place Prize is the largest award in the world, including mathematics, literature, physics, history and other awards, and it is currently the most authoritative award in the world.

Each laureate will become a world-renowned university scholar, and no one in Huaxia has yet won this award. Therefore, Wang Lung was very excited, he knew that as long as he won this award tomorrow, his first position in the domestic academic world would be stable.

And even internationally, his status would be very different. The reason why he came up with this paper was to go for the Place Prize. Now that the big prize is in front of me, I am naturally very excited.

"I would like to thank the organizing committee, Mr. Smith, for your trust in me and your willingness to award this award to me." Wang Lung smiled, and drank the red wine in the wine glass as he spoke.

"Hey, Professor Wang, the reason why we awarded you the award is entirely because of your accumulation and contribution to historical research, which has nothing to do with any of us." Smith spoke, "By the way, Professor Wang, I'll introduce you to someone." ”

As he spoke, Smith pointed to a man beside him, also in his forties and fifties, with a pair of glasses and dressed as a scholar.

"This Willtai is one of the most famous historians in our West, and he is currently writing a general history of the world, which is exactly what you wrote about the history of China. That's why I came with us this time, saying that I wanted to communicate with you. Smith said.

As he spoke, Wiltai beside him smiled at Wang Long: "Hello Professor Wang." ”

"Hello, Mr. Wiltai." Wang Lung said immediately. He had heard the name Wiltai, one of the most famous scholars in the West, and the general history of the world compiled by him was considered by Westerners to be the most authoritative historical work so far, and his global fame was not known much more than that of Wang Lung.

Therefore, when he heard Smith say that Wiltai wanted to communicate with him, Wang Lung was very happy.

"I would like to thank you, Professor Wang, this time." Wiltai smiled, "I have studied the ancient history of all countries in the world, among which the history of civilizations in Egypt, Babylon, and India is not a problem, and they can all be considered ancient civilizations. It's just that China, which also claims to be an ancient civilization, has always maintained a puzzled mentality. ”

Wiltai spoke: "We can see that almost all ancient civilizations originated near the two river basins, and I think that human civilization originated in that place. Therefore, there should be no problem with the history of civilizations in Egypt, Babylon, and India. Only you Huaxia is too far away from the two river basins, completely far away from the center of human civilization, in such a desert, which can even be regarded as a place in the countryside of human civilization, how can there be such a long history of civilization. ”

Hearing Wiltey's words, the faces of all the Westerners on the table did not change at all, and it was obvious that they had already accepted Wiltai's point of view. However, some of Wang Lung's students couldn't help it, although they accepted Wang Lung's paper, but when they heard Wiltai belittle Chinese civilization so much, especially when they heard him compare Huaxia to desert and countryside, they all frowned.

These people wanted to say something, but when they saw that their teacher also looked unchanged and listened to Wiltai's words with a smile, they had to hold back what they wanted to say.

"That's why I have always thought that the history of your ancient civilization in China is fake, and it is absolutely impossible to have 5,000 years, or even 3,000 years, and you have no qualifications to be called an ancient civilization. I even think that your Chinese civilization should be shorter than our Western civilization. However, when I put forward this concept, it was strongly opposed by your Chinese academic circles. To be honest, I'm a little disappointed that you Chinese scholars are so nationalistic and disregarding the facts. But fortunately, you still have an outstanding talent like Professor Wang Long in Huaxia. ”

Wiltai sat on the table and said endlessly: "Your paper perfectly confirms my conjecture, tomorrow when you win the Place Award, my views will be officially recognized internationally, and your Huaxia will be officially removed from the four ancient civilizations." ”

The purpose of his visit to China was to witness Wang Lung win the Place Prize, and then he would include his views in his general history of the world, and completely remove Huaxia from the four ancient civilizations.

Hearing his words, several students at the dinner table were about to explode, and they wanted to refute something. However, before they could speak, Wang Lung laughed and said, "It should be so, I think the attitude of scientific historical research is to respect the facts." If Huaxia really doesn't have that long history, then it should be removed. The four ancient civilizations are indeed an outdated statement. ”

In order to be able to win the Place Award, Wang Lung has no care about anything.

Hearing Wang Lung's words, all the Westerners at the dinner table looked at each other, and they all saw a look of pride in each other's eyes, as if Wang Lung's attitude was very in line with their hearts.

"Come, then let's have another toast for Professor Wang Long to win the Place Prize."

Smith raised his glass and smiled. All the Westerners immediately raised their glasses and congratulated Wang Lung. Hearing their words, Wang Lung burst out laughing, already immersed in the praise of these Westerners.

And when their banquet was in full swing, all the domestic media also began to report. It was reported to the people of the whole country that the Place Organizing Committee has come to China and will present the award to Wang Long tomorrow.

And tomorrow, after Wang Lung wins the award, the ancient history of China will be completely denied in the international community. (To be continued.) )
