Liu Jingting first came into contact with "The Merchant of Venice" in the textbooks of that middle school. He was deeply impressed by Portia's wits fighting Sherlock.

In order to kill his opponent's life, the prodigal businessman Sherlock would rather not have a loan than cut off a pound of meat from his opponent according to the contract. Portia, who pretended to be a lawyer, wanted to suppress her first, and first emphasized that she should do things according to the contract. Then she pointed out in a tit-for-tat way that sherlock could only cut one pound of meat, not one gram more or one gram less, and even more so that she could not shed blood. Otherwise, she would be murdering Christians. Sherlock lost the case and justice eventually defeated evil.

As one of Shakespeare's four major comedies, the play not only satirized the profit-oriented usury merchants at the time, but also enthusiastically praised love, friendship, and wisdom. It is a very representative work in Shakespeare's works.

Although time and place have changed, the positive significance presented in the play and the praise of human kindness immediately resonated with the audience once it was staged. The news that Liu Jingting went to Venice to "The Merchant of Venice" quickly became a great story in the literary world.

In early March, Rome performed "The Merchant of Venetian" and specially invited the Chinese ambassador to Italy to watch it, which aroused enthusiastic reports from Chinese media, including the daily news. However, after the news spread in China, some people soon began to speculate that Liu Jingting's move was challenging "Waiting for Godot" and "Gitanjali". After all, the latter two are the works with the highest Nobel Prize call at the moment, and Liu Jingting was bound to bet on the Nobel Prize, so he was inevitably anxious.

"Where is the promised closing?"

"So, is Gu Yongsheng's closing declaration only valid in China?"

"I watched the performance of "The Merchant of Venice" on the temptation tube. The drama is good, but are you sure you want to sign up for the Nobel Prize in Literature?"

When domestic doubts and jokes just emerged, everyone habitually focused their attention on Dongfang Zhike, wanting to see what kind of hilarious jokes he had about this matter. However, before Dongfang Zhike had time to take action, Tiandao Youchang, the executive editor of "Jianglu", took the lead in posting a counter-questioning on "Huashan Sword Controversy": "Why are netizens from other countries shaking ourselves while cheering for us?"

Chang Youdao posted several screenshots of Twitter and Facebook in his post, citing related reports from mainstream media in several European countries, and then asked again:

"Is our tolerance to the development of literature and art even worse than foreigners?"

Chang Youdao's posts quickly received a large-scale response from Gu Yongsheng's readers. In the past, the Oriental Gu Yongsheng came forward to criticize Gu Yongsheng. Gu Yongsheng himself and the editor of "Jinglu" rarely responded. This time, it was rare to be so active and proactive. Everyone's fighting spirit was quickly ignited, and all doubts and malicious ridicule were encircled and suppressed. "Professional black" and "passerby black" that had not yet formed a climate before they had time to fight back, the mainstream domestic media began to make efforts and severely denounced these ulterior motives remarks.

"Liu Jingting is kept as Venice" is a representative item of the folk cultural exchange between China and Italy. It has certain positive significance for the diplomatic interaction between China, Italy and even China and Europe. It is a thing worthy of the joy of the people of both countries. How can a small group of people irresponsibly speak out?

"This is not the time for you to show off your cleverness."

It is related to the position. Mainstream media and netizens rarely stand together, and the "small group of people" who are trying to make trouble quickly disappeared. After all, no one can resist such strong public opinion pressure, and the power behind public opinion is not something that ordinary netizens, even well-known commentators can resist.

The Oriental Guest did not make a single word about this matter from beginning to end, but instead enthusiastically sang "Waiting for Godot" and "Gitanjali", analyzing the various factors that they could win the Nobel Prize, and once again showed a keen sense of public opinion and excellent online combat skills.

"He is reminding everyone in his own way not to forget Nobel and not to forget our boss's three-year agreement."

You often say that a post can cause such a powerful chain reaction and feels really comfortable. When talking about Guests of the East, he pointed out his intentions incisively.

"Nobel's registration date seems to be February. Have you heard that the boss has signed up?" Su Jin asked.

"No." Green Jiao replied.

Kang Lingyue looked up and wanted to speak but stopped.

Chang Youdao pondered for a while and said, "No matter what, let's keep blindly confident in the boss as always."

...

The boss Liu Jingting is now standing at the foot of Kilimanjaro, the "roof of Africa".

This is the second place that Liu Jingting went to after traveling separately from Xu Qing. The first place was the Great Rift Valley of East Africa about 160 kilometers away.

"In the face of the majestic nature, I am simply too small to mention." This is Liu Jingting's deepest insight in the past week.

The second feeling is that when sitting in front of the computer for a long time and lacking exercise, you will feel that you are really weak when facing such a mountain.

In March of the tenth year of the Pavilion, Liu Jingting climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and returned halfway.

After returning to the hotel, before she could unload her mountaineering equipment, she received a call from Aunt Qing, who was far away in Paris. In order to rush to Paris to attend the fashion week, she specially entrusted Liu Jingting to a trusted hiker. Traveling separately was originally a planned plan, but just a week after she was separated, Xu Qing realized the importance of bringing a friend who could scan her face.

She wanted to go to the fashion show on site, but she did not get an invitation letter. In previous years, the admission quota applied for by Travel magazine in advance, but as she transferred to "Jinglu", this benefit naturally no longer exists.

"At least I am still your employee now, this reasonable benefit application should not make you feel embarrassed, right?"

“…”

"You have to know that when we are in the magazine industry, we must always pay attention to the trends at the forefront of the world, understand what young people, that is, our target reader group, are thinking and what they are paying attention to. Only in this way can the magazine keep pace with the times, and make more precise magazine topics, and produce content that conforms to the trend of the times. Only in this way can we position the future development direction of the magazine and ensure that in the future competition, we will not be abandoned by the times. So, now the question is, where is the forefront of the trend of the world? Yes, it is Paris."

"Aunt Qing, don't fool me anymore, I'll book the air ticket right away."

"No need, I have already booked a plane for you tonight for 11 o'clock and will arrive at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning."

“…”

...

The plane landed at Charles de Gaulle Airport at 7 a.m., which proves that the world is equal to the delayed world.

When Xu Qing received Liu Jingting, her face was as if nothing had happened. She looked around and talked about him for five or six minutes. She found that Liu Jingting had no invitation letter at all. She showed signs of Fashion Week. She finally couldn't help asking: "What do you think about that invitation letter?"

Liu Jingting rarely saw Xu Qing so weak. He was amused and said calmly: "When I first appeared "The Little Prince", I met a publisher, and I will contact him."

Xu Qing nodded and said, "Yes, this approach is right, because the main guest of Fashion Week is the editor-in-chief of some fashion magazines or top contributors. Even if your publisher friend has not received the invitation, he will definitely introduce other ways to you."

"Aunt Qing, why do you say it seems like we are going to do something that is unreasonable?"

Xu Qing asked him for something, but she didn't refute it and smiled.

At this time, Liu Jingting took out his cell phone, checked the SMS box, found the message sent by Kang Lingyue, and then directly called the number in the message.

"Hey, who?" A young woman's voice came from the phone.

"Senior Sister Xie Pei? I am Liu Jingting, level 9, Wanxiang Q9." Liu Jingting introduced himself.

Xu Qing next to him heard Liu Jingting calling out the word "Xie Pei", and her expression immediately became richer. Xie Pei, one of the top ten fashion designers in the world, does have the charm of changing color for a woman who understands the fashion circle.

"That junior Liu Jingting from Gu Yongsheng?"

"Yes." Liu Jingting replied with a smile.

"Haha, I have long admired Daming. By the way, Junior Jingting, how do you know my private number?"

"Look for what the teacher wants."

"President?"

"yes."

"Great, are you here in France now?"

"I'm in Paris now and want to see the fashion show's knowledge, but... well, there's no invitation."

"Ah?" Xie Pei was surprised, "If the organizer knew that Junior Jingting, you were also interested in fashion shows, how many invitations have been sent, where are you now?"

"Just leaving Charles de Gaulle Airport."

"Then you come here directly. When you arrive, call me and I'll pick you up. By the way, how many of you?"

"two."

"Okay, come here quickly."

Liu Jingting hung up the phone, and Xu Qing asked, "How do you know Xie Pei?"

"She is a graduate of Vientiane Q5, my senior sister."

"Everything is really that powerful."

Liu Jingting nodded for granted and asked, “Where was the fashion show held?”

"The Louvre." Xu Qing replied incredibly.

...

When Xu Qing and Liu Jingting rushed to the Louvre from the airport, the Swedish Academy of Literature was holding an important vote on the decision: Will Liu Jingting enter the Nobel Prize for Literature?

"Raise your hand if you agree."

As soon as Longdev finished speaking, Academician Niu Kailang was the first to raise his hand, followed by the female academician, and then four other academicians raised their hands.
