The issue is "!' (exclamation point), as you're able todo some cleaver bash fu by using it.

For example, first command is the 'base' command. Next, we repeat the last command that started with 'echo'. Then the final example is just re-run the last command. (You can go on todo things like run the nth number in your bash history too)

root@kali:~# echo "Hello World"
Hello World
root@kali:~# !echo
echo "Hello World"
Hello World
root@kali:~# !!
echo "Hello World"
Hello World
root@kali:~#

Now, this is the problem you are facing...
...and how to fix. There is a difference with single and double quotes.

root@kali:~# echo "!hi"
bash: !hi: event not found
root@kali:~# echo '!hi'
!hi
root@kali:~#
