    The Associated Press reported that Klaas Ostgren, a member of the Swedish Academy of Letters, confirmed that Dylan had collected the Nobel Prize at a hotel in Stockholm that afternoon. A small, intimate banquet was arranged according to Dylan's personal wishes, and only members of the Faculty of Arts and Dylan's staff were in attendance. "The process was very smooth" and Dylan was "friendly".

    Sarah Danius, permanent secretary of the Swedish Academy, said that the 12 members of the Swedish Academy attended the banquet and were "in high spirits and drank champagne" and "spent a considerable amount of time contemplating the gold medals". Some members of the Faculty of Arts revealed to Sweden** that Dylan expressed his joy at winning the award.

    According to the regulations of the Nobel Prize, Nobel laureates must hold a lecture within six months after the award ceremony on December 10 last year to receive the prize of 8 million Swedish kronor (about 6.14 million yuan). Dylan previously said that the Faculty of Arts would receive his recorded lecture after receiving the award. In the history of the Nobel Prize, recorded lectures have appeared occasionally.

    Most recently, Canadian writer Alice Munro, winner of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature.

    After receiving the award, Dylan rushed to the conference center near the hotel, where he performed classic old songs as well as newer ** songs, but did not say a word about the Nobel Prize. Lars Schebrum, the sound and light engineer who performed the show, was "very surprised" by this, and "I thought he would say 'thank you.'" Dag Hannah, a 65-year-old logistician, said Dylan never spoke to the audience during a show, "you have to accept this."

    The night will be the debut of Dylan's latest cover song** on his European tour, with another show in Stockholm scheduled for the 2nd.

    Late winners].

    The Swedish Academy announced on October 13 last year that the 75-year-old Dylan had been awarded the award for "pioneering a new way of expressing emotions through poetry on top of the traditional form of American song." However, Dylan did not say anything in the following weeks, and at one point "lost contact".

    At one point, it was rumored that Dylan refused to accept the Nobel Prize. Writer Per Westerberg, a member of the Swedish Academy, criticized Dylan's attitude as "rude and arrogant", which put the Academy in an "unprecedented predicament".

    The British "Daily Telegraph" published an exclusive interview with Dylan on October 28 last year. Dylan said the news of the Nobel Prize for Literature was "unbelievable......It's amazing, incredible. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen"?

    Asked if he would attend the ceremony, Dylan said he would "absolutely" attend the ceremony "if possible."

    However, Dylan did not show up at the Nobel Prize ceremony on December 10 last year, citing other arrangements. His acceptance speech, written in advance, was read by the U.S. Ambassador to Sweden in attendance. He wrote, "I have asked myself more than once, are my songs literature"?

    If I had the slightest hope of winning the Nobel Prize, I would think it was about the same as my chances of standing on the moon."

    Bob Dylan's Nobel Prize in Literature is "Blowing in the Wind". The work is one of the most important works in the history of American folk songs, and the lyrics of the song were awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature on October 13, 2016 as Bowdillan.

    The lyrics are to the effect of how many walks a man has to walk to be called a man, how many seas does a white dove have to fly over to sleep in the dunes, how many times does a cannonball have to skim the sky before it can be banned forever, the answer.

    My friend, fluttering in the wind, the answer is that it flutters in the wind, how many years does it take for a mountain to stand before it can be washed into the sea, how many years does it take for some people to survive before they can be allowed to be free, how many times does one have to turn his head before he can pretend that he sees nothing, answer, my friend, fluttering in the wind.

    Bob Dylan's story

    Dylan became a hero in the world of folk songs and activists. But in the wider pop world, his songs are considered to be nothing more than "the best for others to cover", with "Peter, Paul and Mary" being the most famous. That all changed for two reasons.

    The first reason was that his repeated role as a leader of the radicals began to irritate him, and this irritation was expressed in his songs, most notably on the fourth record, Another Side of Bob Dylan (1964).

    In the immature song "My Back Pages," Dylan denounces that "life is a black and white lie" and comments on his early firm vows, "How old I was then, and now I'm younger than I was then." The second and more important reason was the popular revolution in Britain during 1963 and 1964.
