Chapter 329

Kevin walked slowly up to the lecture hall of Stockholm University, then bowed to the fans who gave him warm applause.

After Kevin bowed, there was another round of applause.

After the applause, Kevin began to speak

"Thank you very much for president Seth Hill's invitation. Thank you very much for the applause you just gave me. I don't think there is anything more precious than this. Once a wise man told me that if you want to understand a city, you must first understand the story of the city. After coming to Stockholm yesterday, I tried to learn everything about it. I have to say that this is a charming city. I'm very happy to be here. By the way, I'd like to thank Mr. rattis for bringing me here. I think you should also give him a warm applause. Because it's not him, and maybe you won't see me here. "

Kevin's words have just come to an end. There were warm applause from the audience. With the applause, Mr. latis also stood up in his seat and saluted the audience.

After another round of applause, Kevin began to speak slowly

Well, I think it's time for me to get to the topic of the speech. So I have to start with a more serious and regular way. First of all, dear president Seth hill, leaders of Stockholm University, Mr. rattis, Mr. Lewis, teachers and students, Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you.

Maybe other people don't know about me except Mr. Lewis and others. So here I have to introduce myself.

Yes, I'm Kevin. I'm Kevin, who wrote all living beings and Jane Eyre. In addition to being a writer and company owner, I have another identity - a fresh graduate of Edinburgh University.

Why should I emphasize this? Because I want to tell you that a person's success has little to do with his graduation age. Of course, I can't deny that age is closely related to people's life, but it's not all.

By the time I wrote the collection of living beings, I had published several of my own works, and those works had achieved good sales in the UK. At that time, many people advised me not to try to write poetry anthology, but to write more novels that you are good at - the reason is that this is a decadent era of poetry.

But I did not stop, because a wise man told me that a person should do what he likes to do, don't care too much about other people's evaluation. I like to write poetry, and I am willing to try to write poetry in this decadent age. Fortunately, the collection of all living beings has won the favor and support of many readers, and I also won the title of the youngest Poet Laureate in Britain because of this collection.

Here, I would like to share such a lesson with you, that is, you must adhere to yourself, and then do what you like to do. Because only in this way can you have different success.

When Kevin said that, there was another wave of applause. They applauded for the young man who had a lot of experience in life. Kevin also took advantage of the applause and took a drink to moisten his throat.

Then Kevin goes on to say:

When I just came on stage, many people were talking about my age. It is undeniable that like all of you here, we are all so young. As a result, many people will think like this: Kevin is God's favorite, he has a different career and success from his peers.

There are a lot of people with this idea in my birthplace, England. But I tell you, I'm not God's pet. God is so busy that he doesn't want to position one of the people as a pet.

What readers in Sweden may not know is that I am different from ordinary gifted writers. My writing didn't start when I was very young., If I count my writing age, to be honest, I'm just less than a year old.

Less than a year to have the present results, perhaps you will say that this is not God's favorite, what is it? No, I haven't experienced any writers in general.

Jane Eyre is the first work published in my life, and many people know me from it. But what you don't know is that this work was thrown into the trash. Yes, as garbage.

The students at Stockholm University were all in a chorus of "wow" and surprised. They did not expect that the works written by such a talented writer would be treated as rubbish. It's incredible.

At the end of the Whoa, Kevin went on to say:

Therefore, my friends, there is no so-called pet in this world, and no one's road is relatively smooth at the beginning. When Jane Eyre was thrown into the dustbin, I thought deeply and doubted whether I was still suitable for writing? Or should I stick to it?

Finally, I think of that sentence: to do what you like to do, don't care too much about other people's evaluation.

So, at that time, I was thinking, since some people treat it as garbage, then naturally some people will treat it as gold. Fortunately, it finally met someone who regarded it as gold.

At this point, there was another round of warm applause. And the applause lasted about 20 seconds. This is rare at Stockholm University.

Just last month, their Swedish Tsar royal family came to give a speech, and the longest applause time was only 10 seconds. Moreover, Tsar royal family is also the biggest sponsor of this lecture hall and deserves the highest treatment. But now Kevin gets twice as much applause as he does.

Kevin received 20 seconds of applause and broke the longest applause record of Stockholm University. So, at this time, Seth hill was also smiling excitedly.

Although Louis knew something about Kevin, he didn't expect that Kevin's speech ability was so excellent. And this is a temporary speech, you know Kevin is not a professional speaker! But what he said was orderly and progressive. It's just amazing. At this time, Louis also had to re-examine Kevin.

All of a sudden, he has found that the young man has the air of a master.
