Toynbee spent eight days in his room before he finally came out of his room. It was early in the morning when he left the room, and he went to the lake alone, stripped naked, and jumped into the lake to take a bath.

The frightened Glevin kept guard, for fear that something would happen to him. However, his self-styled style made Glewin respect him even more, and felt that big people should have their own unique hobbies.

After coming ashore, he didn't dry his body, shivered from the cold, put on his clothes, and then sat down on the grass by the lake and began to be in a daze.

Until Zhou Nan got up, saw the door he opened, and found the lake. He was also worried about Toynbee bathing in the icy lake early in the morning, and was a little relieved to see that he was okay. If something happens to him in his home, Zhou Nanke will face the condemnation of the whole society.

Seeing that Zhou Nan was also sitting down beside him, he opened his mouth and asked, "You don't know much English, but you seem to know French, don't you?" ”

Zhou Nan nodded and said, "Speaking is okay, but reading is not." ”

"That's enough." "I never imagined that a twenty-four-year-old young man could tell history so profoundly and interestingly in such a concise language and in simple terms, and that many of your insights have surpassed those of most people of this era, including me," he said, switching to French. Your book, in many ways, is like a light in the darkness for me. Mr. Zhou, you are an amazing person. ”

Such a compliment is a little ashamed for Zhou Nan. Although he is not weaker than these masters at the level now, the problem is that these theories are all mature theories that have been matured in later generations, and he let them appear in this era in advance.

Zhou Nan is not ashamed of this, because he spread this knowledge earlier and benefited the whole society. Even those who are plagiarized will have more far-reaching developments in their respective fields when they are exposed to these mature theories earlier.

In this way, the accumulation of knowledge evolves from generation to generation, and is more suitable to serve human beings themselves.

But for him personally, this kind of praise is definitely a bit exaggerated, after all, he is not a creator.

Zhou Nan said with a smile: "Rather than hearing these praises from you, I want to hear your opinions more, because praise will only inflate me, and opinions can make me improve." ”

He groaned, frowned, shook his head, and said, "No, I don't think it's a compliment, it's just a fact. Of course, I have different opinions on some of the details in the book, but I don't think that what is mine is right or yours is wrong. If you really want to hear it, I don't think it's now...... Yes, not now. ”

Zhou Nan was a little dumbfounded, he didn't understand what he meant, and he thought that he didn't understand his French. He asked, "Why don't I need your guidance now?" ”

He shook his head and said: "After reading your book, I don't think I still have the ability to guide you, you are the most talented young man I have ever met, even more than Wittgenstein, who perfected the Treatise on Logic and Philosophy at the age of 31." Your minds should not be disturbed by anyone, for you yourself are beyond this time. ”

Zhou Nan understood what he meant, this is a real master, he is unwilling to use his theory to influence Zhou Nan's current theory, and he appreciates Zhou Nan's current theory very much.

He could only retreat and say, "Mr. Toynbee, can you give me some guidance on the history of the Eastern and Western Roman Empires?" The materials and books I have collected are far from being able to elaborate on everything about that era, so the manuscript is still lacking. ”

He said with a smile: "Not only this era, but also the British Industrial Revolution, the Thirty Years' War, the capital expansion period, the Anglo-French War, the development and expansion of the Orthodox Church, the ancient Egyptian period, and some historical facts of the ancient Roman period, you still need to learn and temper." Actually, your book is ready for publication, but you're still perfecting. I have great admiration for your seriousness and would like to give you some help in this regard. ”

Zhou Nan laughed, what he said was exactly what he needed to determine and confirm some of the shortcomings, the establishment of many theories is not a castle in the air, you evaluate that era, if you don't understand it at all, how can you evaluate it?

With Toynbee's help, Zhou Nan believed that more materials would not need to go to the library to find them.

He's an active library, and he also has his own interpretive function.

What's more, he did not arrogantly suppress his juniors, and was very willing to help Zhou Nan.

After getting the news that Toynbee had been released, the reporters in the town ran over one by one. Toynbee's public class, which he promised eight days earlier, has dragged on for another five days, and the reporters have long been impatient.

The old man was very happy with the situation. Because of Toynbee's arrival, at least more than 100 reporters and hundreds of experts and scholars from other countries came to the town, and these people's daily food and lodging can bring a lot of income to the town.

The main purpose of these experts and scholars was to listen to Toynbee's class, but they did not expect Toynbee to be in retreat for eight days all at once, and now that they know that he is out of the customs, they all rush over.

Under such circumstances, even Toynbee could not afford to be outraged, so he readily agreed to hold a public seminar as arranged by the town.

However, the town of Weggis did not have a meeting place that could accommodate four or five hundred people, and the largest building was the town's church, which had a capacity of only two or three hundred people.

Entlebuch approached Zhou Nan and asked what to do. Zhou Nan thought for a moment and said, "Since there is no such a big place in the town, and it is a public seminar, why don't we just hold it in the open air?" The weather is just right these days, and any ranch can accommodate everyone. ”

The old man was amused when he heard this, it was not easy for Weggis to find a big house, but he wanted to find a vacant land with a suitable terrain, which was simply everywhere. He smiled and said, "I think this hillside on the east side of your house is very good. ”

Zhou Nan shook his head and said, "It's not suitable, you should still reserve a little private space for me." ”

"Then go to the small hill where the Friemants house connects to the public pasture, and the environment is suitable."

If you think of the peninsula as the head of a turtle sticking out, the town of Weggis is where the neck and body meet. The Sennar villa in Zhounan is at the eye of the turtle, which is about two kilometers away.

The House of Freemants is the closest to Villa Sennar, but it is also a kilometre away, almost at the junction of the turtle's head and neck.

There are just the beginning of two small mountains, where the turtle's head is divided into three pieces, and the Villa Sennar is on the westernmost part.

It's not far from the town and a kilometre from the Villa Sennar, so holding a rally here won't disturb anyone's peace. Zhou Nan thought about it and nodded. "Then let it be decided."

He smiled happily: "I'll go and arrange for an electrician to pull a temporary line right now, and then connect to the radio." ”

Inviting Zhou Nan to Weggis Town was the most correct thing he thought he had done. In just a few months, Zhou Nan gave him too many surprises, and the current Weggis Town, relying on the income of outsiders, can almost be compared with some tourist areas.

Zhou Nan shook his head, this Entler Buhe is so enthusiastic, he is now better to himself than to his own son, and he is almost obedient.

However, with such an old man in the party to take care of him, Zhou Nan is becoming more and more famous, and his status in the party is also rising steadily. With the care of the whole party, and the fact that this party is one of the two largest in Switzerland, there is no one like Thomas who can handle him casually.

Zhou Nan was just about to go back upstairs, but Entlebuch turned out to be back again. "Jonas, what do you think we should call this seminar?"

"Weggis World Economic Forum." Zhou Nan pondered for a moment and said firmly: "That's the name...... Entlebuch, you will be recorded in history forever......"

The old man was so excited that he almost had a heart attack. "Really!"

Zhou Nan nodded and said: "It's too late this year, I think the town should raise a sum of money to build a multi-purpose hall at the entrance of Sennar's villa, and in the future, we will hold this World Economic Forum once a year." ”

World Economic Forum in Davos, I'm sorry. However, it would have been decades before you were founded, and the organizers don't know if they have gone to school now, so let's create an economic forum by yourself.

Since he had such an idea, Zhou Nan introduced the organizational activities to Entlebuch and asked him to go to the University of Lucerne to invite more experts and professors to come over.

And the seminar should not be just one, but at least multiple different topics and breakout sessions. In this way, people from different industries can have fun participating.

This year, as long as it was a hit, it broke out of its own reputation. In the future, it will be easier to invite some celebrities over.

Toynbee also arranged the future time with his assistants at this time, and when he returned to the living room, he heard Zhou Nan and Entlebuch's plan, and after listening to Zhou Nan's plan, he was also full of interest and said: "In this case, I also need to prepare, prepare a few more topics." It's a pity that the time is too rushed, otherwise, I would have invited a few more old friends to come along. ”

Zhou Nan smiled: "The future is still very long, and we don't need to rush for a while." ”

He nodded and said, "Mr. Zhou, I need to apologize to you first. Originally, I wanted to stay here a little longer and discuss with you what we were interested in, but I am now an adviser to the British government, so I must return to Paris as soon as possible, and I will be leaving tomorrow at the latest. I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time to come to Switzerland for the next month. ”

"It's okay, I'm going to the UK in June, and maybe we'll have plenty of time by then. And Mr. Toynbee, you can call me Jonas instead of Mr. Chow. ”

"Okay, Jonas." He laughed. "I've always liked China, and now, I'm starting to like Chinese too. When you go to the UK, I will definitely introduce you to some old friends. With them, I think everything in your book will be perfected quickly. ”

Zhou Nan looked at the time and smiled: "Since you are leaving soon, then let's not waste time, I have countless questions I want to get answers to from you now." ”
