Chapter 359

United Nations headquarters building.

After a security check, each guest entering was given a temporary pass.

The pass looks very delicately made, with a blue ribbon hanging on it. On the back of the pass is the United Nations logo, the visitor's name, and a photo.

Qin Shaoyan casually hung the pass around his neck and followed everyone into the hall.

The formal meeting had not yet begun and many people gathered in the lobby.

Media teams from internationally renowned news agencies and TV stations have already begun interviews, including staff from CCTV.

A female host selected a Chinese college student representative, chatted with him for a few minutes and then began the formal interview.

Facing the camera, the college student representative was a little nervous, but he quickly got into the mood and was able to express his views fluently in front of the camera.

“First of all, I would like to thank the campus network for providing this opportunity and platform for ordinary college students like us to go abroad and participate in international summer camp activities.”

"During this journey, I saw different natural and cultural landscapes, and also met students from different countries. I interacted with them, increased communication with them, and broadened my horizons."

"I feel that the biggest gain is that I have seen the real world, which is completely different from the world written in books and heard from others. This is a very good journey to reshape my cognition."

"My biggest realization is that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles... I hope that students can understand the world better."

“I can learn a lot by communicating with outstanding students from different countries and exchanging ideas…”

Although the university student representatives said a lot, it is estimated that some of them will be edited out in the final film.

The CCTV host also interviewed several students in succession, and then turned the camera to Director Wang and asked a few questions.

Director Wang suppressed his excitement and spoke a few polite words. He praised the Chinese university student representatives, saying that they performed excellently in the "International University Student Summer Camp" and were not inferior to students from any other country.

While the CCTV staff was interviewing, Qin Shaoyan strolled leisurely around the United Nations headquarters building.

He was also very curious about this place. After all, in his previous life, as an internet worker and a 007 social animal, he had only been to the United Nations headquarters once, let alone the United Nations.

Now that I have been reborn, I have flown to the United States on business trips several times and I have vomited from flying.

If it weren't for the fact that the United States was related to his wallet, Qin Shaoyan would never want to come to the United States again.

These days, I have been busy dealing with Facebook and the "International College Student Summer Camp". Today, I finally have a chance to relax at the United Nations headquarters.

Qin Shaoyan went to visit the "meditation room" on purpose. It was on the right side when walking from the front hall.

The area inside is not large, and it is said that here people can quietly reflect on how hard-won peace is.

The most eye-catching thing in the meditation room is a huge piece of iron ore, which is illuminated by a spotlight, but the light is relatively dim.

The first time Qin Shaoyan heard of this iron ore was in Liu Diangong’s "The Three-Body Problem". This science fiction masterpiece has not yet been published.

This matter can be done in advance to get hold of the "Three-Body" IP, so that it will not be bought cheaply and resold at a high price, and then used by capital as a plaything for stock speculation.

A science fiction work with huge influence internationally. Even our leader is a fan of this book and took time out to watch the movie version of "The Three-Body Problem".

Then there is no more...

Wow, that’s quite a strange story.

Qin Shaoyan came out of the meditation room and told his secretary Xiao Chen, "Remember one thing for me. Start ordering Science Fiction World magazine for me from next month. Remind me when the magazine arrives."

"Okay, Mr. Qin." Xiao Chen quickly spread out the notebook in his hand, took out a pen and wrote down on it solemnly.

As Qin Shaoyan walked out of the meditation room, he was thinking about the IP development of "The Three-Body Problem". A web drama was necessary, but the cost of a movie version was too high, and it was difficult to find a reliable production team.

As for those people in the domestic entertainment industry, hehe...

The animated version can be considered, as long as you choose the right producer and director, so as to avoid producing a "god-defying masterpiece" that even advertisers run away.

While Qin Shaoyan's thoughts were wandering, his footsteps had already arrived opposite the meditation room, where a copy of the "Charter of the United Nations" was on permanent display.

The original of this thing is stored in the United States Archives in Washington.

Director Wang and a few others hurried over and said, "Hey, President Qin, why are you here?"

Qin Shaoyan turned his head and said, "Director Wang, is the interview over?"

"It's over, it's over." Director Wang said with a smile, "This is a reporter from CCTV. He wants to talk to you about something."

The long-haired reporter smiled and extended her hand. "Hello, my name is Wen Jiali, and I'm a reporter from CCTV."

Qin Shaoyan hesitated, "Reporter Wen, are you going to interview me?"

"Yes, but not now." Wen Jiali said with a smile, "I'm here to make an appointment for an interview. I wonder when Mr. Qin will be free."

"Sure, sure, but we have to wait until the event here is over." Qin Shaoyan asked, "Is that convenient?"

"No problem, Mr. Qin, please call me anytime when you have time." Wen Jiali handed over a business card and then said goodbye.

After Qin Shaoyan glanced at the business card, he handed it to his secretary Xiao Chen, thinking about the matter in his mind.

The CCTV reporter interviewed the Chinese team and finally found me.

Moreover, it was not a direct interview on the spot, but a separate interview afterwards, which made it a little hard to guess.

After thinking for a while, he picked up the phone and gave it to Qu Bingbing.

Instead of guessing, it’s better to ask professionals in the industry.

Qu Bingbing seemed to be woken up from her sleep and complained, "What time is it? You're still calling me."

"Sorry, I'm in the United Nations headquarters building right now. I have too many things to do and I can't bother to look at the time." Qin Shaoyan said casually.

"Hey, what are you doing there?" Qu Bingbing was a little surprised. "Are you participating in some activities?"

"Our company and the United States organized an international summer camp for college students. One of the activities was the World University Forum Summit, which was held in the United Nations headquarters building." Qin Shaoyan said a few words briefly.

Qu Bingbing screamed, "You guys organized this event? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have gone along to do the interview."

"Hey, this matter has been publicized on the Internet for a long time." Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised, "Don't you know?"

"How would I know? I don't usually go online." Qu Bingbing lamented, "For such a big event, there is a lot of news material to dig up, and we can also interview the group."

"Then let's wait for the second event next year and let you come." Qin Shaoyan made a promise casually.

"Really?!" Qu Bingbing became excited again.

"Of course it's true." Qin Shaoyan changed the subject and said, "I have something to ask you."

He briefly recounted the CCTV interview and then asked Qu Bingbing what she thought.

"This is very normal." Qu Bingbing said nonchalantly, "CCTV's interview process is very formal, there shouldn't be any problems."

"The main topic of their interview is the World University Forum and Summit, and the subjects of the interview are definitely the students attending the conference and the teachers leading the team."

"You are just the boss of the sponsor, not the protagonist of this event, so naturally you will be interviewed later in the order." Qin Shaoyan understood instantly, it turned out that I was the supporting role.

"If you weren't the sponsor of the event, CCTV wouldn't even come to interview you." Qu Bingbing said lazily, "And they would definitely find out the situation before interviewing you, and only after someone makes the final decision will they include you in the interview list."

"This news is likely to be included in CCTV's news, so we must be careful when interviewing people, asking questions, and selecting materials."

Qin Shaoyan was a little curious, "Based on your judgment, can it be on the 7 o'clock news broadcast?"

"It's entirely possible, and the probability is not small." Qu Bingbing said enthusiastically, "After all, this event is held at the United Nations headquarters, and it's also the World University Forum Summit, so it's very topical."

"The next step is to see how the Chinese student representatives perform. If they perform very well, they will basically be on the news broadcast."

Qin Shaoyan understood at this moment that if the Chinese student representatives could perform well in today's event, they would definitely be able to appear on the CCTV News Broadcast, and it might just be a simple news item.

If the performance is outstanding, the specifications of the news report will be different, and there will be interviews with students and even interview footage of yourself.

But if I mess up, I will definitely not be able to go on the show, and my interview will be postponed indefinitely.

If it were someone else, they would pray to the gods to allow the Chinese college student representatives to show their bravery and kill many people.

But Qin Shaoyan was very calm because he had made preparations long before, including but not limited to doing ideological work and motivating students, and highlighting key points for students in advance.

As long as these students are not too bad, there will be no poor performance.

After all, Qin Shaoyan spent a lot of time selecting these student representatives and rejected so many people with connections who wanted to fill in their names, just to select the best student representatives.

This is the first event, so we have to make it a great start.

If a bunch of people with connections were really stuffed in, the picture would be so beautiful that I dare not even imagine it.

These university student representatives have high quality, strong learning ability and are fluent in English. How could they lose under Qin Shaoyan's reasonable care?

So, the chess player is outside the game.

If you make preparations in advance, you won't have to cram when the opportunity comes. Just wait to reap the rewards.

After Qin Shaoyan hung up the phone, he walked towards the hall with a smile on his face.

……

The General Assembly Hall at the United Nations headquarters has four sides shaped like a dome. The entire building structure is sloped, with a thin dome on top, which has fixed devices for lighting inside the hall.

At this time, the conference hall was full of people. Reporters and photographers from more than a dozen countries stood on both sides, pointing their cameras and video cameras at the people in the venue.

Watching the UN officials delivering speeches at the opening ceremony, Qin Shaoyan, who was sitting below, suddenly became a little nervous. Director Wang, who was sitting next to him, had a blank expression on his face, his upper body sitting upright and motionless, but under the table, his hands were constantly twisted together, revealing his inner uneasiness.

After the speeches, UN officials announced the start of the debate and then drew a lottery for the topic of today's debate.

A staff member walked up to the podium holding a sealed box, handed it to a UN official to check the seal, and then drew a debate topic on the spot.

Director Wang was even more nervous at this time. He stretched his neck, as if trying to see clearly the note in the UN official's hand.

When the UN official announced the topic of today's debate, Director Wang breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the topic chosen is within the key scope!
Director Wang subconsciously glanced at Qin Shaoyan, but the other party was staring at the podium, appearing very calm.

Mr. Qin is young, but he has the style of a great general.

At the same time, Director Wang also admired Mr. Qin's courage. He dared to cheat in an international event organized by the United Nations. Most people don't have the courage.

Qin Shaoyan would definitely cry out in injustice if he heard this.

How can this be called cheating?
American students can know the debate topics in advance, so why can’t Chinese students?

We can't have double standards and treat people differently.

Besides, this event was an idea I worked hard to plan, and I can’t let the Americans take all the credit.

The following debate almost became a stage belonging only to students from China and the United States. Students from the two countries exchanged sharp words with each other, and students from other countries became mere supporting roles and could hardly say a few words.

The Chinese university student representatives gave a perfect performance and demonstrated their strengths in areas they are not good at.

After the debate, the judges had a heated discussion during the scoring phase, and finally decided that the American team won without any suspense.

Well, the organizer, co-organizer, referee and judges are all their people. How can we win? It's impossible.

American students and parents have invested a lot of resources and money, just to win.

The American team won the debate championship and the Chinese team won the runner-up.

Seeing the warm applause from the audience, Director Wang was very excited and almost cried.

Second is good, second is good.

This way, people won’t pay too much attention to it, and the risk of cheating being exposed is minimized.

Qin Shaoyan also breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone saw the performance of the Chinese team. As long as you are not blind or have a normal IQ, you will find that the American championship was too forced to win.

After all, the entire event was sponsored by the American team, and the Chinese team just came here to get it for free.

Just make a fortune quietly.

The next speeches were individual shows by American students, with several people speaking at once.

The Chinese side selected a student representative to give a speech on stage.

This was followed by speeches by famous experts and scholars, who encouraged college students from around the world.

Then, the whole event ended successfully.

As soon as the event ended, before the Chinese college student representatives left, reporters from CCTV rushed over.

The photographer pointed the camera at the students, and the reporter took the microphone and started asking questions with a smile on his face. It was obvious that they were also very excited.

This interview was much longer than the one before the event started. It was obvious that CCTV attached great importance to the interview and asked more than a dozen questions in a row.

Director Wang was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He kept sending messages to people back home on his mobile phone to report the good news.

Qin Shaoyan called the photographer from Qvod over and told him, "Take the footage back home immediately, take the next flight, sit in business class, and the company will reimburse you."

"Go back to China as quickly as possible and edit a trailer right away. The campus network and Qvod are eager to use it!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Qin." The photographer nodded heavily and patted his chest to assure, "I have my laptop with me. I won't rest on the plane either. It will be enough time to edit a version along the way."

"Very good!" Qin Shaoyan patted the photographer's shoulder, "I'll give you a bonus later."

Domestic campus networks are indeed eagerly waiting for the materials here. The following publicity focuses will revolve around the "International College Student Summer Camp" and the "World College Student Forum Summit".

When Qin Shaoyan was not at home, the executives who stayed behind were not idle.

Not only did they continue to build momentum on the campus network, they also spent a lot of money on promotions on portal sites such as Sina, NetEase, and Sohu. Now they are just waiting for the materials here to be used for publicity and promotion.
