The interview question was out.
Everyone looked at Zhang Ye, wondering how he was to answer. He had to follow up on a tough poem that had previously gone in Chinese language textbooks, Wang Shuixin's most famous poem, "Everything".
Zhang Ye did not speak for a long while.
"Everything"? Why did it sound so familiar?
He was sure that he had heard this poem somewhere, but he could not remember it clearly. Hence, he said, "Can I have some water?"
"Yes." Wang Shuixin turned his head.
An interviewer threw a bottle of mineral water to Zhang Ye.
Zhang Ye used the time to drink the water and opened his game ring and bought a "Memory Search Capsule". He closed his eyes, pretending to be in thought. In fact, he had swallowed the capsule while drinking water. He was searching the memories in his brain, and finally Zhang Ye opened his eyes. He had found his memory and had finally remembered why this poem sounded so familiar!
What the f**k!
Wasn't this Bei Dao's "Everything"!?
