Chapter 648 Award Ceremony
Hearing that David had returned from the king in vain, Moore breathed a sigh of relief, because relatively speaking, he knew better what crazy things people with this kind of background would do. If King really refuses to participate in the honor ceremony on the grounds of anti-war and slaps the US government in the mouth, the US government has nothing to do, it is human rights. And it will win the support of many people -- because it is not pleasing the government, it is the expression of the powerful faction, and there are many anarchists in the United States.
"Then let's build momentum," Moore said to Cha Commentary, "and invite both S.M's HOT and the soon-to-be-disbanded Wind and Rain group." ”
"What do you do with them?" Cha Ping asked a little strangely, "This is the king's ceremony, according to your American tradition, the award is for people, and there is no need to invite people who have nothing to do with this." ”
"What we need is incitement," Moore said, "and as the most prominent star right now, King is undoubtedly the most inciting, but he may not be able to follow our script." But HOT is different, as a team that has just arrived in the United States and is originally hostile to DES, it should be easy to instigate. I heard that one of their members proposed to King to make a solo debut, but he refused, which shows that he doesn't have a good control over the HOT group and can be used by me. ”
Finally, when the day came, a platform was erected not far from the collapsed World Trade Tower, reporters were invited, and the biggest brand, Bruce Willis, had arrived at the scene ahead of schedule, just in time to meet King and his artists, who were never late.
"Yo, the super-American hero arrived at the same time as the original version he played," exclaimed the reporters, "is it an amazing coincidence now?" One is a hero in the movie, and the other is a hero in reality. ”
Bruce laughed when he heard this, "In the movie, it relies on stunts, but in reality, it relies on real skills, which is different." However, I believe that King and I should be on the same page in our fight against terrorism, right? ”
"Of course, Mr. Bruce's Die Hard series is a pioneer in counter-terrorism," King said, "and I think everyone in the world would be against this kind of 911 incident, except for a few terrorists." Even if the government has a different point of view, it is not right to say that the harm is vented on the civilians. ”
While they were talking, the inspector suddenly said to Moore, "Please let the mayor come in, don't let them go on." ”
Moore thought it was strange, but he complied, and then asked, "Aren't they right, just to fight terrorism?" It's exactly according to our script. ”
"No, Young Master Moore, you don't understand the cunning nature of the Orientals, King actually wants to steer the topic to another aspect. Young master, when this ceremony is over, you should immediately invite HOT to perform and cancel the king's speech. ”
Moore frowned, "It's unlikely, isn't it?" How could the recipient not let him speak? ”
"Then it might be a bit of a hassle, we all seem to have overlooked something."
At More's request, the mayor of New York City stepped onto the podium and interrupted the reporters' interviews, "As we all know, a few months ago, we in the United States, we in New York had a sensational disaster. Terrorists crashed the World Trade Center Tower, a landmark in New York that had been erected here for thirty years, with a plane. At the same time, the elite of thousands of Americans died, and here, let us express our condolences to them. ”
Americans do much better than other countries in terms of human rights, and the silence at this time is from the heart, "that is, in that disaster, we have a hero who used his wisdom and strength to escape from the building unharmed, but also saved the lives of three other people on the top of a high-rise building dozens of floors when he was in danger." At this point, everyone has already begun to applaud.
"For us Americans, human life is the greatest asset," the mayor continued, "and we were amazed to find that it was not us Americans who did this, so the New York City Council voted to award Mr. King the title of Honorary Citizen of the United States, and at the same time to award the title of Hero of America on behalf of the New York State Government." ”
The applause was even more enthusiastic, and King slowly walked up to the stage, bowed to everyone, and took the certificate from the mayor.
"Congratulations," said the mayor, "then..." ”
At this time, one of the reporters said, "Congratulations to Mr. King for winning the honorary title, we also saw that there are many artists from DES company, I thought, we should invite the HOT group who just came to the United States to perform a piece of the American national anthem for us, to boost the morale of our front army?" ”
This is actually a reporter arranged by the Kevin Tutt family, and his request for HOT to play the American national anthem is very meaningful, and the American national anthem is to treat the United States as a freedom fighter and their enemies are evil autocrats. If this is performed by HOT, it can be considered in disguise that the DES company supports the United States in eliminating their authoritarian terrorist enemies.
"This doesn't fit our program, does it?" The mayor smiled and said, it was clear that he hadn't had time to get Moore's instructions, "It's time for King to say a few words." ”
King nodded, "Actually, I'm not good at words, especially on this occasion. The people on our side are shy, so I ask for your forgiveness. Otherwise, the journalist just raised the issue of letting HOT perform the American national anthem. This is a bit ashamed, because HOT has just arrived in the United States, and their understanding of American culture is not enough, so if it is difficult for them to perform, I will perform for everyone with the kind of instrument that everyone has seen in their new album, right? ”
"The instrument?" The mayor was obviously also interested, "Is it called 'Xiao'?" Can a single instrument perform the U.S. national anthem? ”
"Of course," King said, putting Xiao to his lips and playing.
I felt a little bad when I saw that the mayor couldn't pay attention to the meaning here, and at this time, I felt even more bad when I saw King start playing the American national anthem. Strictly speaking, king playing the American national anthem should be no different from the HOT performance, both represent DES company, but is it really so smooth?
When he listened for a while, the tone-deaf realized that the problem was - if it was a HOT performance, the lyrics needed to be sung, and the king played it, which was absolutely not necessary. And King's playing is to attract the attention of everyone present, not only because he is the protagonist, but also because the level of playing is very high. However, this created another problem, he changed the whole song in the frustration, and the original style of fighting for freedom gradually became another style permeated with mourning, but everyone present did not seem to notice.
After the song was played, Moore was also a little confused, "This seems to be the American national anthem, but where is that fighting momentum?" “
"That's right, Master Moore," said Cha Comment, "King is a master of playing with music, and as a composer, he can change the whole piece by making changes at a few key points. Besides, he still uses a musical instrument that everyone is not familiar with, so everyone will feel normal even if they feel strange. ”
"Thank you," King bowed to the audience, "as I said, this 911 incident is an attack by terrorists on civilians, and it is absolutely intolerable, and I support everyone in cracking down on terrorism around the world." However, we should also be aware that our opponents are terrorists, and while dealing with terrorists, we should learn to avoid causing harm to civilians and maintain world peace is also the expectation of the American people. Also, this year is a special year," King said with a smile, "I just accepted an endorsement, which fits the theme of today, don't you mind if I talk about it here?" As he spoke, he took a piece of clothing from Zhang Youhyuk's hand beside him and put it on his body.
(More intends to use King's influence to help them promote the justice of the war against Afghanistan when he is awarded honorary citizens, but King is prepared for this and instead begins his propaganda.) )
