The presentation was followed by a Q&A session, and the student delegates who were presiding over the presentation had a large pile of notes on their tables.

But Zhou Nan was not worried, because 90% of the questions were the same or similar, and the students' questions would not be too many, and they would be controlled within an hour and a half.

However, the first question came not from the students, but directly from Charles de Gaulle, who was sitting in the front row. He used the student representative directly in front of him

The microphone asked: "Mr. Zhou, in the two-hour speech, you gave a detailed introduction to the relations between France and Britain, Germany, and the United States, and many issues that I had not realized before. As you just said, the future of the world will remain in a state of confrontation for a long time, and international barriers will not be easily broken, so what is the basis for these conclusions? Why can't this confrontation be resolved in a peaceful way? What's the biggest disagreement? ”

Zhou Nan pondered for a moment and said: "Just in March, Prime Minister Churchill used the word Iron Curtain in a speech in the United States, and I personally believe that the Iron Curtain is far less reflective of the future political situation than the Cold War. ”

"In the history of human development, we can clearly find that when human beings have satisfied their own survival needs, they have never directly rushed to the second stage of human beings, that is, the stage of abundance. Why? Because everything must first satisfy the power desires and hopes of those in power, the peace of mankind is often destroyed by the selfish desires of those in power. The imbalance of society has caused the uneven development of nationalization or regionalization, and the demand for resources has become the fuse of the later wars, whether it is World War I or World War II, the root cause of the war is the improvement of the living environment of the nation and the plundering of production resources. ”

"We don't need to talk about the wars that have passed, but I will now focus on why peace will not come soon. The birth of politics comes from the rule of those in power, and different regions, different people, and different environments will have different demands, which also causes political diversity. Max realized the destructive power of those in power to peace, so he created a new social model, which he considered advanced. ”

"I also admit this and believe that this social model is superior to capitalism today. However, superiority does not mean suitability, and we can clearly understand from the development of the Soviet Union over the past thirty years that this advanced social model needs to be realized step by step, but they are realized in a simple and crude way. It seems that for a noble end, the means can be unscrupulous. But they have fallen into this self-confidence, which cannot be changed by external forces. In this way, their model is fundamentally in conflict with the capitalism that prevails in the West today. ”

"If it had been thirty years ago, I have no doubt that the war would not have stopped, and that the two sides would have fought to the death. However, the development of science and technology, the development of the times, and the development of people's consciousness have all made the world no longer the same. The birth of the atomic bomb changed the world forever. It's like the previous wars, no matter how badly they fought, they couldn't hurt their own lives. But now it's different, from now on we all have knives in our hands, and we can all take each other's lives, or even destroy the entire earth. At times like these, both sides will calm down and then seek a peaceful but mutually contained model, which is what Prime Minister Churchill called the Iron Curtain, which is what I just said about the Cold War. ”

"But now only the Americans have the atomic bomb in their hands."

Zhou Nan said with a smile: "Britain will also have it, France will also have it, including the Soviet Union, and soon there will be it, from the perspective of physics, the atomic bomb is just an equation of nuclear fission and nuclear fusion, and for the big countries, there will not be too many research difficulties." Although the atomic bomb is an evil weapon, we have to say that, from another point of view, this weapon will be the basis for peace. ”

De Gaulle then asked: "If you think that the model proposed by the Soviet Union is superior to capitalism, why are you not optimistic about them?" ”

"Because the road to achieving this path is long, and the possibilities that are now achievable by humans are still very small. And people are selfish, and the process of realizing this model is nothing more than transferring power to another group of people, creating another new privileged class that cannot be supervised. Maybe one day in the future, this goal may be achieved, but it is by no means what we can see now. ”

Zhou Nan hesitated for a moment and said: "Perhaps, we can give the students more opportunities to ask questions, General, about some follow-up questions, in the second volume of my "General History of the World", I will elaborate on it, and I can send you a set at that time." ”

He suddenly strode up to the stage, and his taller figure than ordinary people was still very intimidating, and Etinny in front of the stage did not dare to stop him at all.

From a distance, he looked quite like Hitler, only taller. But up close, the two don't look much alike.

He shook hands with Zhou Nan, nodded, leaned closer to the microphone and said: "I read the first book of Mr. Zhou's "General History of the World", and I also read all the contents of his speeches published in the newspaper. I hope that in the future in France, among you, there will be more people like Mr. Zhou who see the world with open eyes. ”

The students excitedly shouted "Viva France" and he raised his arms and shouted a few times, bowed slightly to everyone, and then strode out of the auditorium.

When everyone reacted and chased out, he had already sat in the car, the car started, and in everyone's sight, he left the Sixth University.

Zhou Nan was also not interested at this time, and it seemed that the passion dissipated all of a sudden.

He knew exactly what de Gaulle was thinking, because he knew all the history of de Gaulle. After the end of the war, he still wanted to restore the glory of France, but unfortunately, he tried hard to find that the current France is not at all the France of a hundred years ago, and the current United States is not the United States of a hundred years ago.

He proposed "détente and cooperation" between the East and the West, and advocated trade and cultural exchanges with the Soviet Union and the countries of Eastern Europe. In the end, he was ousted by the United States, and it was not until the Cold War became a foregone conclusion that he climbed to the presidency through hard work.

But at that time, France was already a member of NATO, and it was also economically influenced by the United States, so there was not much he could do.

The arrival and praise of de Gaulle are self-evident to Zhou Nan, and his praise today is more effective than Zhou Nan's own propaganda in France for a month.

Not to mention anything else, as long as the students here today can't afford to eat if they are not poor, I am afraid that they will all have a copy of his book in their hands in the future.

In fact, even without De Gaulle's propaganda, the students who could listen to Zhou Nan's two-hour lecture here would have each had a copy of his book.

There were not only students from the Sixth University, but a large number of students from other schools, otherwise they would not have placed the lecture in a large auditorium that can accommodate a thousand people.

One of them, a student named Charles, followed Zhou Nan and Favre from Strasbourg to Paris. Who knew that Zhou Nan was delayed for a few days because of the crisis of public opinion, which led to his lack of money and ended up on the streets, if he hadn't been found fainting at the venue during the speech on the first day, Zhou Nan didn't know that he was a person.

was able to chase from Strasbourg to Paris, and was on the street for a few days, which can be regarded as a die-hard fan of Zhou Nan.

Engaged in propaganda, people in this era may not have as much experience as Zhou Nan, he not only asked Etinny to send Charles to the hospital, but also helped him pay for the room, took care of his meals for a few days, and bought him a ticket back to Strasbourg.

After this news was published by Le Figaro, it immediately changed Zhou Nan's image more directly.

In fact, since the arrival of Madame Hemstra in Paris a few days ago, Zhou Nan and they began a full-scale counterattack, Zhou Nan not only left a knowledgeable image on the French people, but also left an image that was not easy to mess with.

Because of the several newspapers that attacked Zhou Nan's race, the major shareholders of two of them were all collected by Zhou Nan with evidence of violating the law, and one of them paid a huge fine and apologized to Zhou Nan in the newspaper. The owner of another tabloid simply ran straight to the USSR and did not return.

As for Le Monde, they were even worse because they had to give in to the signed banners of the residents that Zhou Nan brought back from Arnhem. At present, he no longer dares to make a fuss about Zhou Nan's identity in the newspaper, and he will face legal sanctions.

In order to make this matter bigger, Zhou Nan and they did not accept the other party's request for reconciliation, and the case is now almost a household name in France.

Originally, the French did not have a good impression of Zhou Nan, thinking that Zhou Nan was a little arrogant, but as soon as the incident of Charles was reported, Zhou Nan had a lot of human feelings.

As soon as de Gaulle left, everyone ran out, and the Q&A session of this speech was almost over. Zhou Nan thought that he would be able to leave now, but he also felt a little tired because of his distraction.

But the students didn't let him go, and stopped him one by one and didn't let him go. However, what they were concerned about was not the questions they raised, but that Zhou Nan had not performed Xiaoqu today.

Zhou Nan's flute music has become his repertoire, and it has been blown by the media like fairy music. The song "The Original Scenery of Hometown" made everyone fascinated.

But it's a pity that this song has not yet been released, and Zhou Nan is not allowed to shoot at this time every time, so the song has not been circulated yet.

Zhou Nan suspected that there were many people who cut the score, but they didn't understand this instrument at all, and even if they heard it a few times, they couldn't be sure of the tone of the six-hole bamboo flute.

Therefore, in the short term, Zhou Nan is not worried that the song will be spread.

There was a round of applause in the auditorium, and the speech of the University of the Sixth came to an end, which meant that the trip to Paris came to an end.
