That's right. Haha, I never expected that our web host would be able to enter Peking University as a lecturer. Teacher Little Zhang, do well. Maybe we will also gain some of that glow of yours!"
"Right, I'm anticipating the continuation of your ‘Analysis of the Three Kingdoms’."
Suddenly, the WebTV department's Deputy Director Wang Xiong's voice transmitted over. He had apparently taken the cellphone from Dong Shanshan. "Teacher Little Zhang, your teaching won't affect your work here, right?"
Zhang Ye said, "Leader, it won't affect it at all. I'm just teaching for slightly more than ten days. Once the school goes on break, I'll be heading back to Shanghai as well. If Peking University still wants me to teach next semester, it would also not affect my main job. I'll have lectures whenever I'm free. I'll have the freedom of choosing my own time since it's just an elective class."
Wang Xiong laughed. "That's good. Do well! President Feng and the company are very supportive of you. With your reputation growing, it will also benefit our program."
"Thank you for your support." Zhang Ye said in a placating manner, "Actually I had just been confirmed to be teaching at Peking University. I was about to give you a call to inform you. The previous Professor Wang was hospitalized resulting in me filling in his spot. Hence, it was a bit of a rush, so I didn't have the opportunity to report it to you."
Wang Xiong comforted him, "You don't have to think too much. It's no problem at all. This is a good thing. I'm not being courteous when I said that I support your decision. The company is really supporting you!"
Following that.
Zhang Ye's former colleague from Beijing Radio Station, and also one of the pillars of the radio station, Wang Xiaomei called. She told him something. "Deputy Station Head Jia's position has been changed by the Station Head."
Zhang Ye was surprised, "Why?"
Wang Xiaomei said, "Of course it's because of you. They are settling old scores. Actually, the radio station's head was also responsible for forcing you out, however there was a need for a scapegoat. Deputy Station Head Jia was the 'main contributor' who forced you away, so it's natural for him to be put aside. Who else would be able to stand that bunch of fans of yours who post "Dead Water" on our Beijing Radio Station's official website every day or two ."
When Zhang Ye heard this, he also gave a slight chuckle. Actually, if Teacher Xiaomei had not told him this, he had almost forgotten Deputy Station Head Jia existed. However, he was pleased to hear that such a person had finally received his retribution. "Thank you, Teacher Xiaomei. Is everyone still doing well? How's Director Zhao? Xiaofang? How's Big Sis Zhou and Auntie Sun?"
Wang Xiaomei smiled and said, "Everyone is fine. Now that you are back in Beijing, let's find an opportunity to catch up. Oh, I forgot you will be busy during this time. Let's see when there is an opportunity. Congratulations. You are no ordinary person now. Looking at the introduction on Peking University's official website, there are probably like seven or eight items in that list of accolades, right? Each one of them has the words famous something. This word famous isn't added on to anybody!"
Zhang Ye was amused as he said, "Teacher Xiaomei, there’s no need to flatter me. How would I not know how much I'm worth? Let's meet up when I'm free."
Wang Xiaomei said, "Alright. Let's have a gathering then."
Zhang Ye said, "Very well, also pass my greetings to Director Zhao, Big Sis Zhou, and the others."
Wang Xiaomei said, "Got it. I'll pass it on. I'm looking forward to you lecturing on the ‘Analysis of the Three Kingdoms’ to the Peking University students. If there is a video posted online, I'll definitely watch it."
There were phone calls one after another.
They were all from old friends and former colleagues. They all said they were anticipating his new ‘Analysis of the Three Kingdoms’!
Three Kingdoms?
Everyone thought it would be Three Kingdoms?
Zhang Ye shrugged his shoulders. Even after hanging up the phone, he did not tell them that he wasn’t planning on doing "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". He already had a better topic to teach. Also as a cultural hipster who dabbled in literature, Zhang Ye naturally could not sit idle while the world misunderstood "Dream of the Red Chamber". Neither could he stand seeing them misunderstand Cao Xueqin. He had to publicly rectify it. As the only person on this planet who knew the truth about "Dream of the Red Chamber", Zhang Ye had a responsibility to tell the truth to everyone!
It was like how Zhang Ye used the poems and songs from his world. He was not plagiarising. He did not only want to use it to become famous. He was not trying to use the wisdom of the giants without using his brain. That really wasn't the case. In fact, Zhang Ye did not want the classic works from his world to be buried. As a bridge that connected these two worlds, as an ambassador of
