Entertaining Children

   Chapter 1052 I have a dream

  A 22-year-old Chinese star served as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations Environment Programme and participated in the United Nations World Youth Forum. Both events were quite shocking. After the awards ceremony, some media reporters went online to check on the official websites of the UN Environment Programme and the World Youth Forum, only to find that the organization and the activity process descriptions on the official website of this event really appeared. Xiao Yao's English name.

  After confirming that it was correct, many media also reported the news, and many online media directly posted two screenshots of Xiao Yao's name on the official website.

  Some netizens are faster than journalists. The annual "Golden Dragon Award" award ceremony is broadcast live on CCTV's movie channel. Before the award ceremony was over, the news that Xiao Yao was absent from the "Golden Dragon Award" award ceremony because he went to the United Nations to participate in the Youth Forum appeared on the Internet.

  On the next day, the news of netizens had been fermented overnight. Coupled with media reports, China’s Internet also exploded because of the news.

  Compared with China’s annual "Golden Dragon Award" awards ceremony, of course, the opportunity to go to the United Nations is even more rare. The World Youth Forum organized by the United Nations and China’s "Golden Dragon Award" are not on the same day, but the distance between the two is very close. Coupled with the appointment ceremony of a UNEP Goodwill Ambassador by Xiao Yao, it is no wonder Xiao Yao Will therefore be absent from the "Golden Dragon Award" award ceremony. However, it is precisely because the opportunity to show up at the activities of the United Nations is so rare that the public also pays extra attention to the performance of Xiao Yao, a young Chinese star, at the activities of the United Nations.

  The topic of public concern is naturally the topic that media reporters want to pursue, but not just any reporter is qualified to conduct interviews and reports on UN activities. Now there is only one day left before the World Youth Forum is held. Even those large and serious media that are qualified to go to the United Nations to report and send reporters to New York immediately have no time to apply.

  Fortunately, what the media wants to report is not just a method of interviewing in person. The activities of the United Nations must also be reported by the media. When the time comes, everyone will wait for others to report and then reprint the report. Therefore, many Chinese media, like the public, are waiting for relevant reports to come out.

   Xiao Yao participated in the United Nations World Youth Forum as a UNEP Goodwill Ambassador, so the appointment ceremony for UNEP’s appointment of Xiao Yao as a Goodwill Ambassador preceded the World Youth Forum.

  The headquarters of the United Nations is in New York, but the headquarters of UNEP is not in New York, but in Pirone, the capital of Kenya, Africa. Previously, UNEP’s appointment of goodwill ambassadors was held at its own headquarters, but this time because Xiao Yao is going to participate in the World Youth Forum, the appointment ceremony is not at UNEP’s headquarters in Piraeus. It was placed in New York, the headquarters of the United Nations where the World Youth Forum was held.

  Although it is not at the headquarters of UNEP, the process of this appointment ceremony is no different from that held at the headquarters. After all, UNEP itself is an organization under the United Nations.

  In general, the appointment ceremony of a goodwill ambassador is actually not much to watch for the general public.

  Related media reports introduced the entire appointment ceremony process and also introduced Xiao Yao’s contribution in the field of environmental protection. At the appointment ceremony, Xiao Yao made a simple speech. However, from the reports of some media, Xiao Yao's speech appeared to be very official, and there was nothing special about it. The only thing that made Huaxia reporters gratified was probably that Xiao Yao's English speech was very fluent and smooth. And to say that Xiao Yao's greatest contribution in the field of environmental protection, in fact, is mainly the animated film with the theme of environmental protection.

  If it’s another celebrity, just being able to speak calmly and fluently in English at the appointment ceremony of the United Nations Environment Programme is a thing worth boasting about. But for Xiao Yao, he spent a year as an exchange student in the United States during high school, participated in a police press conference in the United States, played a guest role in an American drama, and participated in the Eva Show and behind the scenes of the Eva Swimsuit Special. For filming, I don’t know how many times I have been to the Eva Show, I have been a guest performer, and have experienced so many things. It’s surprising news that I can’t speak English well or I’m nervous.

Therefore, for the Huaxia fans who have watched that movie, the only highlight of this appointment ceremony is that Xiao Yao wears a ring belt printed with the UN badge and "Goodwill Ambassador" and holds the appointment together with the head of UNEP. It’s just a picture of a pleading and a handshake.

  Of course, just this news and these photos are enough to make Xiao Yao’s fans and ordinary people in China happy. After all, this is a United Nations event, not a commercial event or variety show, and it is impossible for Xiao Yao to perform a show on that occasion.

  However, what Xiao Yao’s fans, Huaxia’s media and the public did not expect was that Xiao Yao still gave many people a big surprise at the World Youth Forum to be held later.

  The World Youth Forum is not an activity of UNEP, but an activity initiated by the United Nations Secretary-General’s Office, the United Nations Youth Office and other departments. At the forum, there are not only environmental protection topics, but also a series of topics such as economy, energy, education, eradication of hunger and poverty, and sustainable development.

  Xiao Yao was given the opportunity to speak at the forum. As a goodwill ambassador for UNEP, his speech was of course also related to environmental protection.

Although Xiao Yao is going to make a speech on environmental protection, as a goodwill ambassador, he does not need to put forward any specific and feasible solutions to environmental protection problems. Those things are the problems that professionals called "scientists" need to solve. What he has to do is to express his stance and appeal so that more people can pay attention to this issue. Therefore, Xiao Yao's task is not to make a report at the forum, but to make a speech.

  The speeches on the World Youth Forum are all prepared by myself. When Xiao Yao came to the United States, he brought only an assistant, and did not bring anyone who helped him write the speech. Although Xiao Yao has the identity of a director and screenwriter, the UNEP, taking into account the identity of an entertainment star, arranged for someone to write a speech for him.

For Xiao Yao, who has no problem at all with English proficiency and strong memory, it is easy to memorize such a speech and go to the forum to talk about it. However, Xiao Yao did not accept UNEP. For his kindness, I caused myself more trouble.

  Speaking of speeches, the first thing that came out of Xiao Yao's mind was the famous speech "I Have a Dream" delivered by Martin Luther King Jr. in the Lincoln Memorial.

Xiao Yao’s speech at the World Youth Forum was only a few minutes, not ten minutes like Martin Luther King in his previous life, but Xiao Yao did not intend to copy the full text of the previous life’s "I Have a Dream". . Xiao Yao has no impression of most of the previous content, but has a special feeling for the following paragraphs beginning with "IHaveADream". Omit a long paragraph in front of the original text, and keep only the latter paragraphs, the length of the speech is just right.

Although the content of the speech was about the equality of black peoples in the United States, Xiao Yao felt that changing the United States into the world and changing the issue of ethnic equality into environmental protection issues should be able to give people a similar sentence and structure. Very impressed.

  So, Xiao Yao rejected the speech related to his own personal experience provided to him by the UNEP. Instead, it took one night to come up with an environmental issue version of "IHaveADream".

  Don’t talk nonsense on such occasions as the World Youth Forum, and all the speakers’ speeches are subject to review. As a goodwill ambassador for UNEP, Xiao Yao's speech will have to be reviewed by UNEP staff.

  When Xiao Yao presented the speech he wrote to the relevant person in charge of UNEP, the UNEP people's eyes widened in disbelief. This kind of performance by the relevant person in charge of UNEP is because the good of the speech was beyond his expectation. When it was later handed over to the relevant person in charge of the World Youth Forum for review, of course it passed the test without a doubt.

Xiao Yao’s speech at the World Youth Forum was not in front of countless people in an outdoor place like the Lincoln Memorial like Martin Luther King did in his previous life, but in front of dozens of people in an indoor forum. Yes, the content and length of the entire speech cannot be compared with Martin Luther King Jr. in his previous life. But on such an occasion, Xiao Yao still successfully shocked many people at the scene through his speech.

  Off-scripted speeches are nothing special. Although there were not many youth representatives who gave speeches at the World Youth Forum, it was not uncommon. Xiao Yao didn't attract much attention when he walked onto the podium empty-handed. But Xiao Yao's speech is not out of manuscript, but the content of the speech and his state at the time of the speech. The whole speech process can be said to be eloquent and loud, especially when the first few paragraphs of "IHaveADream" came out, the eyes of all the people who watched Xiao Yao's speech changed on the spot. Before Xiao Yao's speech ended, there were people on the scene who couldn't wait to applaud Xiao Yao.

At the World Youth Forum, Xiao Yao is not the only youth representative who speaks, but the applause is heard in the middle of the speech, and only the long-form expert speakers on various topics, short speeches like Xiao Yao’s expressive nature When this happened, Xiao Yao was the only one in the audience. After Xiao Yao's whole speech was over, the applause from the audience was obviously much enthusiastic than the others.

  The World Youth Forum is divided into main forums and sub-forums, each with different themes, and will last for a total of three days. Originally, Xiao Yao only made a speech in the sub-forums on environmental, energy and gender equality issues, but the night after his speech, the organizer notified him to give another speech at the main forum the next day.

  The next day's speech, Xiao Yao's speech time was a few minutes longer than the previous day.

Xiao Yao knew that he was able to get such an opportunity because his environmental protection issue version of "I Have a Dream" was particularly effective, so he did not write another speech, but added to the speech the day before. Some content was added to accommodate a longer speech time. Of course, those paragraphs of "IHaveADream" are the core of the speech, Xiao Yao will not easily modify it, just add some content before and after. With that version of the previous life, Xiao Yao didn't spend much time changing it.

   In the next day’s speech, Xiao Yao’s performance was still very exciting. Due to the larger number of people on the main forum and a higher degree of attention, the extended version of "I Have a Dream" aroused stronger on-site reactions on the main forum.

  During the World Youth Forum, the organizer will make relevant official records of the whole process, and some qualified media will also take pictures on the spot. Therefore, in these two speeches of Xiao Yao, both video materials have been recorded.

  After Xiao Yao participated in the World Youth Forum, the videos of his two speeches soon appeared on Huaxia's network. When these two videos appeared on Huaxia's network, they really shocked China's media and netizens. Various media and netizens have made a lot of reports, forwarding, evaluation and discussion on these two Xiao Yao’s speech videos at the World Youth Forum. These two speech videos not only spread quickly on the Huaxia network, but also Appeared in news programs of some TV stations.

There are actually many Chinese celebrities or celebrities serving as goodwill ambassadors in various organizations in the world, and they have participated in various world-class activities, but there is no celebrity or celebrity in such activities. The speech and speech video of Xiao Yao, like Xiao Yao’s speech, has been circulated so widely and so popular in China in such a short period of time.

  The reason for this is, on the one hand, Xiao Yao’s own fame. In China, among the stars under 30, Xiao Yao is definitely the most well-known one of China, and if it is placed in the world, I am afraid that only a few international superstars such as Zhou Hu can surpass him. Up.

  Of course, another more important reason is the content of these two speech videos by Xiao Yao.

  In these two videos, Xiao Yao’s speech is really wonderful. In particular, the speeches beginning with "IHaveADream" give people a deafening feeling. Whether it is from the content of the speech, or from the expression of emotions, facial expressions, and body movements during the speech, it can almost be used as a teaching material template for people. Just after these two speech videos circulated, some speech experts really took the extended version of Xiao Yao's speech video to make a meaningful analysis and comment.

  The most important point is that the source of these two videos is not just from some Chinese media who participated in the World Youth Forum report. The latter one, a longer speech video, also appeared on the official website of the World Youth Forum. In other words, the organizers of the World Youth Forum specifically recognized Xiao Yao's speech and regarded it as an image representative of the World Youth Forum. This kind of treatment, but even many foreign big-name international stars have never had it.

  Even the World Youth Forum officials took Xiao Yao’s "I Have a Dream" speech video as a facade, and it was posted on the official website. How could Xiao Yao's speech video not be popular in China?
