Chapter 1405 Answering Questions (Part 2)
After hearing the reporter's question, Chen Yi couldn't help but smile and looked at the two directors of Rigg, "Mr. Rigg and Mr. Alec should answer your question. Please invite both of you to the stage."
Before attending the press conference, he also asked about the opinions of Director Rig, because their appearance at the Shakespeare manuscript press conference may arouse dissatisfaction from some government personnel, but they did not care that they must attend.
Amid the applause, Director Rig and Alec slowly stood up, then stepped onto the press conference, shook hands with Chen Yi, and then stood on the left and right.
Director Rig first picked up the microphone and said with a smile: "First of all, I would like to thank Mr. Chen for letting us see this manuscript of Shakespeare before the press conference. Before that, like you, I thought that Shakespeare's manuscript could not be found at all. Even if Mr. Chen told me that he was looking for it, I still thought so."
"But unexpectedly, after only a while, he found a manuscript that was most likely the original work of Shakespeare, and it was Hamlet, which was incredible."
At this time, Alec also echoed: "I feel exactly the same as Mr. Rigg. Even if my Cobb family has countless collections, if I want to find Shakespeare's manuscript, I will definitely say the words to greet his mother."
Hearing this, a burst of laughter suddenly rang out at the scene. This press conference not only shocked them, but also was so interesting now.
"But, Mr. Chen did what we thought was impossible. For hundreds of years, he found the complete script manuscript of Shakespeare that no one could find. I, Alec, did not admire me many people in my life, but Mr. Chen can be regarded as the person I admire the most."
Seeing that Alec was not finished speaking, Director Rigg shook his head and smiled. The heir to the Cobb family's collection was also a playboy when he was young. "Okay. Alec, we came to the stage not to let you give a speech, but to answer questions. We have carefully watched and studied this manuscript by Shakespeare Hamlet before the press conference began."
"After my research and identification with Alec, this manuscript of Shakespeare is concise and concise in writing and has very high literary attainments. According to some of my research on Shakespeare, the use of some words on this manuscript is consistent with his characteristics and in that era. Therefore, we basically determine the authenticity of this manuscript. More than 90% of it."
Even though Director Rigg believed in his heart that this was Shakespeare's manuscript, for the sake of rigor, it was impossible to be truly sure at this time, because after all, they had only been observed by their eyes and not verified by some scientific means.
"Mr. Rigg said it well. I have watched the Hamlet published now. It is not very attractive to me. However, this manuscript can immerse me in the text of the script. I think only the drama master Shakespeare can do this. If someone says that other dramatists can do it, then I would think he is blind."
Alec echoed, and finally made a joke to everyone, causing bursts of laughter.
However, Alec's jokes could not eliminate the shock of the reporters at the scene. If Chen Yi's previous introduction made them feel that the manuscript on the stage might be the original work of Shakespeare, then now, the words of Director Rig and the others have made them believe in it.
Director Rigg is the director of the British Museum. I am afraid that there will be no one in Little Britain to find people who know Western cultural relics. This manuscript can be recognized by him, and it is definitely very likely that it is the original work of Shakespeare.
"Okay, this is our answer. Thank you everyone, Alec, let's go." After the answer, Director Rigg took Alec off the launch stage.
After the question was completed, all the reporters at the scene raised their hands again, looking forward to Chen Yi's choice.
Every question raised will make them believe in Shakespeare's manuscript. When the entire press conference is over, they will have a more thorough understanding of the information on the manuscript and will also make the public believe more.
The second one was selected was a reporter from China. At this moment, in a foreign country, his heart was full of excitement. Chen Yi once again brought glory to the nation and created a miracle. He discovered this extremely precious Shakespearean manuscript in Little Britain. The shocking degree would definitely be greater than those sketches of Genesis.
"Hello, Mr. Chen, I am a reporter from China XX TV Station. As a Chinese, I feel extremely proud and proud of your achievements. My question is, after the press conference, will you allow Little Britain, including the world, to identify this manuscript of Shakespeare?" The Chinese reporter also proposed a matter that everyone is more concerned about.
The authenticity of this manuscript is not enough to be identified by Chen Yi and Curator Regg and others, and is not enough to convince everyone that if it is recognized by some experts who specialize in Shakespeare, then this manuscript will become Shakespeare's real script manuscript and the only completed script manuscript in the world.
I believe no Chinese is not proud of Chen Yi's discovery of Shakespeare's manuscript. The robbers of Little Britain in the past robbed countless treasures in China. Now, Chen Yi is picking up bargains on Taobao in Little Britain, and this is the one who came to collect debts.
This question is also what many journalists want to know. In this world, some collectors who have obtained certain precious cultural relics do not show them at all. They only place them in the collection room to appreciate them, and do not allow others to identify them. This is the case with Shakespeare's three pages of possible manuscripts.
"This is naturally. If you want to truly determine the authenticity of this manuscript, you must have a better understanding of Shakespeare's experts and scholars to come and identify. After the press conference, I will invite some experts to identify this Shakespeare's manuscript together." Chen Yi nodded. No one would doubt the Chinese cultural relics he identified, and this precious cultural relics such as Shakespeare's manuscript cannot be decided by one person or a few people.
Seeing the previous questions, they received satisfactory answers. All the reporters raised their hands again, wanting to be selected by Chen Yi and ask the questions they most wanted to ask.
The third reporter selected by Chen Yi was a blonde and blue-eyed woman. She stood up, but her slim and sexy figure did not attract the attention of the reporters on the scene. Their attention was all focused on the reporter's issue.
"Mr. Chen, thank you very much for choosing me, and thank you even more for the Feng Qiuhuang you played last time, which made us more affectionate. This time the appearance of Shakespeare's manuscript was shocking. What I want to ask the most is whether you can roughly talk about your search for this manuscript. If this question violates your **, you can refuse to answer it." The female reporter asked a more caring question.
All the reporters at the scene focused on Chen Yi. The search process of this Shakespeare manuscript was indeed something they were very curious about because this was something that no one could do for hundreds of years.
"As you are so curious about this issue, I will briefly say that here, the first thing I want to thank here is Director Rig and Mr. Alec, and Director Fehrman of the London Library. They provided a lot of help in my search for Shakespeare manuscripts, allowing me to read many books and materials and gain a deeper understanding of the information of Shakespeare's era."
Chen Yi pointed his palm at Director Rig and nodded to them. Even if these reporters don’t ask, he will briefly introduce this question at the press conference.
All the reporters' eyes were once again on Director Rig, and they stood up and nodded to everyone.
Chen Yi did watch a lot of cultural relics in the British Museum and the Cobb family, but in the eyes of Director Rigg, their help was nothing.
"Before I came to Little Britain, I had already started to collect relevant information, and after I came here, I got more information. Through this information, I found the information of some people in the King's Theatre with Shakespeare in that era. In my opinion, the most likely person to obtain Shakespeare's manuscripts were these troupes, but I found the addresses where these people lived in that era."
Chen Yi slowly introduced some of his search for Shakespeare's manuscripts. "After four hundred years of change, some of the places where these people live have been abandoned, some have become tall buildings and factories, and it is very difficult to find them."
"But I didn't give up and continued to search and visit based on the information I got. Finally, after many times of gain, things made progress. With the help of some information from descendants of a troupe staff, I successfully found this manuscript of Shakespeare at a scrap purchase station. Before I got it, I didn't know that it turned out to be a famous script of Hamlet."
He did not hide some key information, because even if this press conference was held, some of his struggles with the Little British government were far from over.
