104. Shake the world

Mu Zhu: If you dare to invite two sisters, who can shake the world?

Simei: Napoleon said that it is the sleeping lion in the East.

Mingyue: Once the sleeping lion in the East wakes up, it will shock the whole world.

Mu Zhu: Napoleon's true classics of prophecy can be seen by people all over the world.

Simei: The sleeping lion has woken up and is rising.

The bright moon: It is vigorous and rushing to a well-off society. It is unambiguous to enrich the people and strengthen the country.

Mu Zhu: What else can shake the world besides this?

Simei: It’s not you, is it?

Mingyue: Maybe that's not the case.

Mu Zhu: Don’t use me to turn on the brush, I can’t bear it. I read a famous saying, do you two want to listen to it?

Simei: But it doesn’t matter.

Mingyue: listen carefully.

Mu Zhu: “determination and perseverancemovetheworld.”

Simei: What does it mean?

Mu Zhu: Ask it knows why.

Mingyue: But it doesn’t matter.

Mu Zhu: Let's start brushing again.

Simei: Let me try it, see if it is right or not. Determination and perseverance shake the world.

Mu Zhu: Sister is sister, and one translation is accurate.

Simei: What are you planning to do?

Mu Zhu: I want to do my best to do whatever I am doing. (i’ll makeeveryefforttobegoodatwhateveriandoing.)

Simei: Good, determined.

Mu Zhu: I have to do what I am afraid of. (imustdowhatiamafraidtodo)

Mingyue: He has the courage and dares to try.

Simei: The key is to persevere, and it is not enough to give up halfway.

Mu Zhu: I will be confident and face any challenge. I will realize all my potential and create new miracles.

Simei: Archimedes once said, give me a fulcrum and I will shake the world (or translated as pivoting the earth). Confidence is the first step to success.

Mingyue: We will supervise you and encourage you.

Simei: Success belongs to the indomitable person. Mu Zhu has woken up and will not sleep anymore.

Mu Zhu: With you all the way, I will never be a turtle with my head. I will not let down a man who conquers all difficulties and keep moving forward. Grandpa Mao once said: "The world belongs to you and ours, but in the final analysis it is yours." Although it is still inconspicuous now, I will let the world see it. No matter how great the difficulties are, I will not be afraid, and I will be determined to persevere in the world.

Simei: It doesn’t matter. Let’s see it first. All signs show that everything is possible.

Mingyue: Victory will not come to us, we must move towards victory ourselves.
