In order, apart from the Vatican, Buddhism, and Taoism, the other five of the world's eight major religions participated in the debate. In contrast, Brahma suffered a silent loss, while the others only touched upon the topic briefly.

Half an hour later, Lin Rui sat back in his original seat.

Despite being in a remote and secluded location, many eyes were constantly glancing in their direction, a testament to Lin Rui's brilliant and unparalleled debate on stage.

Normally, the debate session involves using our religion's understanding of worldly concepts to persuade the other party about their questions.

But Lin Rui did the opposite, not only using the questioner's doctrines but also using the other party's language. How could anyone argue with that?

Admitting it would be tantamount to surrendering and making peace; not admitting it would be going against one's own religious beliefs!

While the questioners were both amused and exasperated, they were also greatly shocked by Lin Rui's extensive knowledge of religion. In fact, halfway through the debate, the opinions of the people present had changed dramatically, and even some sects in the Vatican couldn't help but secretly give Lin Rui a thumbs up.

"I wonder what kind of award the Vatican will bestow?"

Lin Rui, however, began to look forward to it.

Chen Bin gave Lin Rui a strange look and asked uncertainly, "Mr. Lin, what if we asked you to be the spokesperson for the Global Religious Culture Communication Association?"

Lin Rui stared at Chen Bin, uncertainly asking, "Brother Chen, are you serious?"

Seeing Chen Bin nod, Lin Rui looked around and then said, "Let's go!"

After saying that, Lin Rui made a quick getaway, leaving everyone stunned!

At first, no one on the scene reacted. After they came to their senses, they obviously realized something and were both amused and intrigued.

On the other hand, the two representatives of Buddhism and Taoism were so anxious that they almost got up. If they weren't old and their legs weren't so weak, they probably would have run outside to chase people away by now.

It wasn't until he boarded the private jet that Lin Rui began to calm down, still shaken by the experience. For him, today's events had been quite thrilling.

spokesman?

You call this a reward?

Are you sure you're not hiring people to work for free?

"Go straight to Gaul. I will never come back to that place unless there are exceptional circumstances!"

Hearing Lin Rui muttering complaints, Chen Bin laughed and said, "After you're done with this, you'll still have to come back. My godfather said that if it's the old Pope, you can meet him."

"We'll see when the time comes."

Lin Rui waved his hand, then got up and returned to his lounge. He planned to have a good meal first during the immersive experience, even if it was just to satisfy his cravings and not really relieve his hunger. But at least the touch and taste were real, and that was enough.

Once food enters the throat, they are all the same; there is no such thing as delicious or ugly food.

Of course, the Vatican also offered some explanations for Lin Rui's sudden departure from the religious exchange meeting, which was that Lin Rui, as a public figure, was going to Gaul to attend a music festival.

Everyone knows this is just an excuse. If it were before the argument, probably no one would have paid much attention, since they are all minor figures.

After his rebuttal, he gained some fame in religious circles. Although he had some complaints in private, feeling that Lin Rui did not respect the religious exchange meeting, he could not express them.

After all, Lin Rui's arguments on stage were indeed brilliant, and his religious stance was very broad. At least the major religions were unwilling to make a fuss, even the Brahma Church. In addition, the Vatican intended to downplay the matter, so everyone simply pretended to be confused.

Gaul, the city of Fran.

With the music festival just around the corner, the city of Fran is now a gathering place for stars; you can see all sorts of celebrities just by walking down the street.

Upon arriving at this place, even Chen Bin suggested that Lin Rui disguise himself temporarily. Although the music festival organizers would be responsible for arranging the guests' food and accommodation, given Lin Rui's personality, he would inevitably wander around in this fashionable city. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble as much as possible, it was necessary to disguise himself appropriately.

"You didn't even let me know you were coming, so I could have picked you up from the airport."

Christie smiled as she strolled down the street with Lin Rui, followed by Zhao Wanwan and others.

Zhao Wanwan was actually quite shocked. Just a year ago, Lin Rui was just an unknown nobody.

In terms of fame, at that time, he couldn't compare to her, who was a well-known prodigy in the Xiazhou piano world.

But after the Golden Hall performance, Lin Rui made a name for himself and became the first piano master in Xiazhou and even the entire Shenzhou!

At that time, Lin Rui was still not well-known internationally. Even with the title of piano master, the international piano community always avoided talking about Lin Rui's identity and even deliberately downplayed it.

For a long time, Lin Rui still failed to make a name for herself overseas. As for how things were going in China, she had heard about it, but didn't have a deep understanding of it.

Having followed Christie for many years, she knew at least third-tier international celebrities. Even knowing that Lin Rui had become the youngest celebrity, or even a socialite, in the history of China, did not affect her much.

You have to understand that in China, only those who reach the top tier of celebrities are qualified to compete with third-tier international artists. So from beginning to end, what she truly recognized was Lin Rui's identity as a piano master.

But things are different now. Thanks to his incredible performance at the World Arts Awards, especially after achieving the extraordinary feat of winning 15 gold medals in one day, Lin Rui has risen to the ranks of international artists, and at the top of the list!

At this moment, watching Lin Rui and Christie chatting and laughing, Zhao Wanwan couldn't help but sigh that she still had a lot to learn from Christie, not only in piano, but also in her eye for people!

Thinking about it, it makes sense. Even she didn't understand why, after seeing Lin Rui play "Flight of the Bumblebee," this mentor immediately went against all odds to hold a piano tour in Xiazhou and invited Lin Rui to perform on stage.

She also didn't understand why Christie would still provide assistance to Lin Rui even though the overseas piano community chose to downplay his image as a piano master, even though she never brought this up with Lin Rui.

She couldn't even understand why Christie always responded positively the moment Lin Rui asked for help.

Now, Zhao Wanwan seems to understand.

There's no other reason than the stark difference between her and Lin Rui, like heaven and earth.

"The teacher has excellent taste."

Zhao Wanwan thought to herself.

"Are you and Mr. Chen the only two attending the music festival?"

"Yes, is there a problem?"

Lin Rui was somewhat surprised to see Christy hesitate to speak.

“I’m afraid you’ll win so many awards that you won’t have enough hands to carry them all.”

Christie smiled.

Upon hearing this, Lin Rui also began to ponder. According to the crystal trophies awarded at the music festival, if there were only three or five awards, he could handle it more than enough. Even if there were twice as many, it wouldn't be a problem, and Chen Bin could help him get some.

The problem is that the film "The Legend of 1900" alone has been nominated for as many as thirteen awards!

Lin Rui held out his left and right hands for a moment, and then suddenly felt a little helpless. He couldn't very well throw the trophy into the [Virtual Space] in front of everyone like a magician!

At this moment, Lin Rui couldn't help but think that he wished he had Nezha's three heads and six arms.

Just then, my phone received a text message.

Upon seeing this text message, Lin Rui suddenly smiled: "The person who's been helping out has arrived."
