The applause lasted for a long time, no one counted the few minutes that had passed, Yang Guo frequently bowed, and finally Mr. Anderson, the founder of TED, pulled Yang Guo back to the stage and made a look like he wanted to chat with Yang Guo, and the applause gradually stopped.

"Leon, thank you for sharing!" Mr. Anderson said with a smile and patted Yang Guo on the shoulder.

It is not uncommon for Mr. Anderson to chat with the speaker after his speech, and in the past two days, as long as the ideas are recognized by everyone, innovative or breakthrough, he will personally walk on the stage.

That's a thank you to the speakers!

The old man was tall and thin, with gray hair, but his blue eyes were bright.

He himself is a speaker who likes to speak, and under his insider's grasp, TED has become the world's most in-depth and breadth-speaking event. Many of the world's celebrities are willing to come here to share their thoughts.

"Thank you, Mr. Anderson!" Foreigners don't need much etiquette, Yang Guo just smiled slightly, and said calmly, "I'm grateful for your invitation, you know, it's really a surprise!" ”

"No, you are a surprise to us, and seeing what amazing ideas you have brought, I think all of our listeners have paid great tribute to your sharing, for bringing hope to that impoverished land." Mr. Anderson said with open hands.

His voice fell, and soon many people applauded.

"Thank you! As TED said, ideas_orth_spreading (ideas are worth spreading), with the ability of one person or a few people, I cannot change the status quo of poverty in Africa, nor can I spread the light of education to every corner of poverty. ”

Yang Guo paused, then looked at the nearly 1,000 spectators at the scene, and said loudly: "But at TED, if I spread this distance education model and the idea of public welfare, with TED's hundreds of millions of viewers, more people, more funds, and NGOs will join in." ”

"Do you mean that everyone can use your distance education model to help children in Africa?" Mr. Anderson asked.

"Of course, it's not just children in Africa, it's all over the world that human children should be educated, whether traditional or remote. The idea of public welfare is open and shared! I would love to be able to communicate with organizations that are willing to invest in education philanthropy, and I would also like to see that the distance education model can play its role in other public welfare organizations or countries. ”

"Excellent! It's true! Mr. Anderson patted Yang Guo on the shoulder, and he said, "Leon, it is no exaggeration to say that your speech is one of the most profound impressions and one of the strongest spiritual shocks I have ever heard!" ”

This is the first time in the history of TED that Mr. Anderson has received such a high evaluation, but no one will argue with Mr. Anderson's appreciation, because they feel the same way.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Let's thank Leon Young again with a round of applause! Mr. Anderson was the first to applaud, and then the audience applauded continuously until Yang Guo walked off the stage of the speech under the guidance of Mr. Anderson.

Yang Guo's mood was actually stirring at the moment, he had prepared a lot for this speech, but he didn't know that it would be such a great success, but looking at the eyes of every applauding audience, Yang Guo's heart was full of strength.

What Yang Guo didn't know was that before he returned to China, the video of this speech had already landed on major video websites at home and abroad, and it exceeded 100 million clicks in just one day, and on the second and third days, under the reports of major media, the number of clicks on this video increased at an exponential rate.

You know, this is a speech video that is known as a speech that people like and don't like!

Being able to get such a high number of clicks doesn't make sense at all to explain it with Yang Guo's influence. It can only be said that Yang Guo's speech is really shocking, and his ideas have indeed won the support of many audiences!

Aside from the attention received by Yang Guo's speech on the Internet, on the afternoon of the third day, at the closing moment of the TED conference, Yang Guo and two other speakers received the TED conference award from Mr. Anderson at the closing ceremony!

In fact, there was no suspense about Yang Guo's award as early as yesterday when Mr. Anderson made such a high evaluation, but at today's award ceremony, several things were announced that surprised and moved Yang Guo!

Every year, the three winners of the TED conference will receive support from TED, in addition to the prize money, and the TED organizers will help the winners realize their ideas.

One of the more famous is Mr. Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, the former richest man in the world, who often sponsors speakers at TED to realize their ideas.

After Yang Guo received the award, Mr. Anderson solemnly announced that several billionaires, including Mr. Bill Gates, jointly invested 500 million meters to establish a global distance education charity fund.

500 million meters of gold! This is already a huge amount of more than 3 billion yuan, not to mention Yang Guo's own charity fund, even the current domestic government's investment in remote teaching is not more than 3 billion!

This is just the contribution of a few wealthy people, if it is publicized, and with the influence of these rich people, I believe that there will be more donations of funds into the account.

Yang Guo was invited to serve as the general counsel and spokesperson of the foundation, and cooperated with NGOs around the world who are willing to devote themselves to charitable education, starting from Africa, to devote themselves to the education of poor children around the world.

Of course, Yang Guo will not refuse this invitation, the general counsel is mainly because Yang Guo proposed this concept, and Yang Guo does have the ability to communicate with people all over the world.

The spokesperson is a little interesting, Yang Guo is actually not a celebrity, but it is undeniable that Yang Guo has a good influence all over the world (starting from a supermodel, Yang Guo has appeared in the eyes of foreign media every year), and this influence is positive.

In this way, the burden on Yang Guo's shoulders will be much heavier. But there are responsibilities and opportunities, from the beginning of the study of remote teaching, Yang Guo has already had a dream of changing the world in his heart?

When Yang Guo flew home across the Pacific Ocean, the media at home and abroad rushed to report on the establishment of this charitable foundation.

Yang Guo also occupies a large part of the page, compared with the cautiousness (or modesty) of the domestic media, the foreign media has already praised Yang Guo to the sky.

At the beginning, it was just a title of praise for Yang Guo in the academic community, but now it is also used by foreign media.

"The Father of Future Education", "The Father of Distance Education", or "The Father of African Enlightenment", these praises are obviously excessive, and even Yang Guo himself couldn't help blushing when he knew about it later!
