Chapter 244 Why is he everywhere?

Liu Zhijie looked at his watch. It was already 12:15 and the guest was still nowhere to be seen.

"Didn't they say they would be here in ten minutes? It's been so long, why hasn't they arrived yet?!"

Liu Zhijie cursed in his heart that this guest was really not punctual, and then began to consider whether he should go back directly to report.

At this moment, a text message suddenly rang from a classmate who was also a volunteer.

"The event has already started, when will you be back?"

"I'm still waiting for the guest at the door. The guest hasn't arrived yet." Liu Zhijie replied to his classmate with a text message.

"The guests are already here! That's why the event has just begun." The classmate replied.

When Liu Zhijie saw this message, he was a little confused. The guests had already arrived, but he had been standing at the door and hadn't received anything!

Is it because the guest is not coming and the organizer did not inform me, so I have to wait at the door? Then the organizer is really unkind.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhijie became a little annoyed. With a gloomy face, he turned around and returned to the auditorium, intending to call the culprit to task.

After returning to the auditorium in a rage, Liu Zhijie grabbed a volunteer classmate and asked directly: "Where are the guests participating in the event?"

"They are all on the stage!" The classmate pointed to the podium in front.

Liu Zhijie looked up and saw Zhang Wei standing next to Li Xiaofeng.

"Isn't this the classmate from Tsinghua University next door whom I met at the door? He's actually the guest of honor!"

Liu Zhijie pointed at Zhang Wei and asked the students around him, "Who is that person? Is he also a guest? Isn't he the lucky audience member who was invited to the stage to take a photo?"

"Are you talking about the guy standing next to SKY? He is the 2004 WCG World Champion ZW Zhang Wei, who won the world championship one year earlier than SKY! It is said that after he won the WCG World Championship, he did not continue playing games, but went to study." The classmate introduced.

"Not playing games, but studying?" Liu Zhijie looked surprised.

It is understandable that someone becomes addicted to games, wakes up, turns back, and returns to school. But what is the point of studying at Tsinghua University?

That’s Tsinghua University. Many talented students worked hard but couldn’t get in. How could a guy like you who is addicted to computer games get in?

When his classmates saw Liu Zhijie's expression, they couldn't help but feel strange. It's not an exaggeration to stop playing games and study hard. There are many examples in reality. Is it necessary to make such a fuss?
So the classmate asked, "Liu Zhijie, what's wrong with you? You seem very surprised!"

Liu Zhijie asked, "I know that Tsinghua University recruits students with special talents every year. Does that include those who play computer games?"

"What are you thinking! Tsinghua University's gifted students are either artistic geniuses or high-level athletes. How can they include computer games?"

"What if you play games and win the world championship?" Liu Zhijie asked.

"That's impossible! If it's an Olympic sport, and you win the world championship, you might have a chance to enter Tsinghua University without taking the entrance exam. Computer games? Don't be ridiculous!"

"Yeah, I also think it's impossible!" Liu Zhijie frowned slightly, thinking to himself, there are no students with special talents in playing games, so how did this Zhang Wei get into Tsinghua University?
Just when Liu Zhijie was puzzled, his cell phone rang. It was a call from a teacher in charge of volunteers at Peking University.

"Teacher Wang, this is Liu Zhijie. Do you have something to talk to me about?" Liu Zhijie quickly answered the phone.

"You are in the auditorium now, right? The Lenovo event has started, right?" Teacher Wang asked.

"It's already started."

"After your activities are over, immediately take seven or eight volunteers to the library," Teacher Wang instructed.

"The library? There seems to be a World Book Day event there?"

"Yes, it's the World Book Day event. We are a little short on volunteers, but the students are more enthusiastic than expected. There is still more than an hour to go, and quite a few people have already arrived. I heard there will be an author signing session later, so we need to send more people to maintain order on site."

"Okay, Teacher Wang, I'll take everyone to the library as soon as the activity here is over!" Liu Zhijie agreed.

……

Zhang Wei looked at his watch. It was already 1:40. He had to hurry to the Peking University Library to participate in the World Book Day event.

"Brother Gai, it's time for me to go to the next event venue."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy! Thank you for what you did today."

"Why are you being so polite to me? By the way, don't go too far. Why don't you go to a nearby internet cafe for a while? When I'm done with my work, we can have dinner together tonight!"

Zhang Wei said goodbye to Li Xiaofeng, and then found the person in charge of the organizer to say goodbye.

"What time is your next event? Do you want me to find a car to take you there?" the organizer asked enthusiastically.

"It starts at two o'clock, but it's at the Peking University Library. It takes less than ten minutes for me to walk there, and it will be almost two o'clock when I get there."

"Well, I won't see you off." The organizer paused and continued, "We will settle your appearance fee today with Team WE. You can contact Li Xiaofeng later."

"I see. You go ahead and do your work. I'll leave first." Zhang Wei nodded, then left the auditorium and headed straight for the Peking University Library.

When we arrived at Peking University Library, it was not yet two o'clock and there were still a few minutes before the event officially started.

"Teacher Zhang Wei, you are finally here. I was really worried that you would be late!" Editor-in-Chief Chen hurriedly came forward to greet him.

"Don't worry, I won't be late. I've been at Peking University the whole time. I was just attending another event in the Peking University Auditorium." Zhang Wei explained.

Editor-in-Chief Chen handed an A4 paper to Zhang Wei and said, "This is the flow of the event. It is the same as the previous ones. First there is the opening ceremony, with leaders speaking on stage, then the introduction of the guests, and then the question-and-answer session, which is mainly for you writers to share your creative process with the audience.

Then it's time for the autograph session. I just checked secretly and you have quite a lot of readers. Many people here brought copies of "Dead Ghost Blows Out the Light" with them, and some even brought several copies. You'll be busy when the autograph session starts later!"

"Got it." Zhang Wei took the A4 paper and continued, "Editor-in-Chief Chen, don't forget that I have to leave early today. I have an event there at :, so I have to rush over ten or twenty minutes in advance."

"No problem. I've set the alarm on my phone. If you forget, I'll remind you!" Editor-in-Chief Chen said.

……

After Lenovo's promotion of its new computers ended, Liu Zhijie immediately brought several volunteers to the library.

At this time, the World Book Day activities had already started for a long time. The leaders' speeches and the introduction of guests had been completed, and enthusiastic readers were asking questions to the writers.

"Teacher Wang, we are here." Liu Zhijie went to report to Teacher Wang.

"Glad that you're here. It's not time for the signing session yet. You should take a rest first. You can go back to maintain order when the signing session starts." Teacher Wang instructed.

"What stage are we at now?" Liu Zhijie asked.

"Readers are asking questions to the author. After the questions are finished, the next step will be signing."

Liu Zhijie looked at the stage and saw Zhang Wei at a glance. "Isn't that Zhang Wei who played games? Why is he here? Is he here to join our World Book Day event at Tsinghua University? He's holding a microphone, is he asking questions? This guy is lucky to be picked by the host and interact closely with the writer."

Thinking of this, Liu Zhijie said, "This interactive session we organized this time is really good. It allows readers to get close to the writers and even ask questions on the podium!"

"What kind of question is this?" Teacher Wang looked confused.

Liu Zhijie pointed at Zhang Wei on the stage and said, "Isn't that student on the stage asking questions to the writers?"

Teacher Wang looked in the direction Liu Zhijie pointed and said, "You mean him? He is Zhang Wei!"

"Teacher Wang, you know him too? Do you also play computer games?" Liu Zhijie was immediately surprised.

Teacher Wang is almost fifty years old. He looks very serious on weekdays. Every time I go to his office, I can see him holding a newspaper. Even if there is a computer in front of him, he never turns it on, as if he doesn't know how to operate a computer.

Unexpectedly, he is all show and no substance. He appears to be a scholar, but in fact he is a game enthusiast who even knows the WCG world champion!
You have to know that as a young man who often surfs the Internet, I got to know Zhang Wei through the introduction of my classmates.

Teacher Wang on the other side said in confusion: "I know how to play cards on the computer. My daughter taught me. What does this have to do with Teacher Zhang Wei?"

"Teacher Zhang Wei?" Liu Zhijie opened his mouth in surprise. Zhang Wei is Zhang Wei, but when did he become a teacher? How can a person who plays games be considered a teacher? Even if you want to address him respectfully, you shouldn't call him "teacher", right? This is too insulting to the title of "teacher".

Teacher Wang said, "Do you think we can't call him teacher because he looks young? Confucius said, 'When three people walk together, there must be one who can be my teacher.' And Teacher Zhang Wei is so young, and he has a best-selling book with millions of sales. It's only natural for us to call him teacher."

Liu Zhijie blinked and it took him a while to understand what Teacher Wang meant.

"Teacher Wang, you mean, he is a writer?"

"What else? If you're not a writer, why are you sitting there?"

"What did he write?"

"Dead Ghost Blows Out the Light, isn't it said that this book is very popular among you young people? Why? You don't know about it?"

"Did he write 'Dead Ghost Blows Out the Light'?" Liu Zhijie opened his mouth in shock.

Although Liu Zhijie had not read "Dead Ghost Blows Out the Light", he had heard of the name of this novel. He also knew that this book was one of the best-selling novels in the past two years and several volumes have been published. Its momentum in the domestic book market is no worse than that of the Harry Potter series.

It was incredible enough for a gamer to be admitted to Tsinghua University, but he actually wrote a best-selling novel with millions of sales. Liu Zhijie's brain short-circuited instantly.

"Could it be that he was admitted to Tsinghua University just because he wrote 'Dead Ghost Blows Out the Light'? Yes, that must be the case! If he didn't have this specialty, how could Tsinghua University have admitted him!"

Teacher Wang continued, "When the autograph session starts, you will start to maintain order and let everyone line up. Our Peking University students are of relatively high quality. As long as the line is lined up, the people who come later will also line up.

You can leave then. I remember there was a lecture at 3:30 in the auditorium, right? The guest speaker was a famous biologist from Tsinghua University, and it was said that his research results had the potential to win a Nobel Prize.

Therefore, this report meeting is not only taken seriously by the Department of Biology of Peking University, but also by the school office. The president will be there in person. It is no less important than this one. You should also pay attention and provide good service.”

"Teacher Wang, don't worry! We will do our best to provide good service and support." Liu Zhijie said immediately.

……

Halfway through the signing event, Zhang Wei slipped away because he had to rush back to the auditorium to give a lecture.

When he arrived at the auditorium, the banners in the auditorium had changed from Lenovo's new computer promotion to his own lecture.

"Zhang Wei, why are you here just now? The leaders of Peking University have already arrived and are waiting for you in the lounge. Come with me quickly." Meng Heming pulled Zhang Wei and walked inside.

"Director Meng, didn't I tell you? It's World Book Day. I have an event there, which is organized by the relevant ministries. Many reporters are here, including those from CCTV. It's really disrespectful! I left early and rushed over here."

"Okay, I've explained everything to you. Now go and say hello to the leaders of Peking University! Then you have to put on some makeup so you can go on stage and give your report."

"Do I need to put on makeup? I gave several reports at National Tsing Hua University before, but they weren't so particular, right?"

"It's different. This time I'm here to give a report at Peking University! When we, Qing University, come to Peking University to give a report, we must be in high spirits!"

"It's also anti-cold wax!" Zhang Wei muttered softly.

……

At the library, students lined up in a long queue.

Once order is established, it is difficult to break. Seeing that everyone began to abide by the order, Liu Zhijie knew that he could withdraw!

After saying goodbye to Teacher Wang, Liu Zhijie returned to the auditorium with a few volunteers.

At this time, many people in the auditorium had already found seats and sat down, waiting for the lecture to begin.

"Everyone, cheer up. The principal will be here in person for this lecture!" Liu Zhijie gave an order and then looked at the banner that had just been hung in the auditorium.

"Famous biologist Zhang Wei?" Liu Zhijie exclaimed.

"Why are you calling me Zhang Wei again? Why are there Zhang Wei everywhere? Am I going to have a fight with someone named Zhang Wei today?"

When Liu Zhijie saw the name "Zhang Wei", he immediately thought of Zhang Wei, but he did not associate "famous biologist Zhang Wei" with the Zhang Wei he had just met.

He is a famous biologist and a top academic figure who has a chance to win the Nobel Prize. How could he be that gamer!
"Come to think of it, there are indeed a lot of people named Zhang Wei. There is someone named Zhang Wei in our department." Liu Zhijie muttered to himself.

The conference hall was soon filled with people, and as the clock pointed to half past three, the lecture officially began.

"Let us welcome the famous biologist Zhang Wei with warm applause and give us a wonderful report!"

Following the host's loud shout, thunderous applause immediately broke out at the scene.

Liu Zhijie also followed the crowd around him and began to applaud, while looking towards the entrance of the podium to see what this famous biologist Zhang Wei looked like.

Then he saw Zhang Wei walking up to the podium leisurely.

"That's Zhang Wei!" Liu Zhijie couldn't help but exclaimed, and in his mind he heard "It's him, it's him, it's him, our hero, little Nezha!"

His companion next to him glared at Liu Zhijie. The speaker at today's lecture was Zhang Wei. This was something the entire auditorium knew. What was the big deal?

At this moment, Liu Zhijie seemed to have completely frozen!
The famous biologist Zhang Wei turned out to be the best-selling author Zhang Wei just now!
The best-selling author Zhang Wei just now turned out to be the Zhang Wei who won the world championship in gaming!
In other words, the famous scientist Zhang Wei is the Zhang Wei who plays games!

Liu Zhijie blinked his eyes to make sure he was not dazzled, and then secretly pinched himself to make sure he was not dreaming, all this was real!
Originally, Liu Zhijie looked down on the world champions in gaming, thinking that they were just a bunch of poor students who were not doing their jobs properly.

Later, he learned that Zhang Wei was also a best-selling author. He just thought that Zhang Wei was a rare talent. As a top student at Peking University, he did not take it too seriously.

Until now, when he saw Zhang Wei on the podium of the report meeting, Liu Zhijie finally realized that the little Karami, whom he had always looked down upon, was actually the ultimate boss!

"This Zhang Wei, why is he everywhere?"
