Chapter 280 I also protest
Edward completely lost his mind and roared helplessly, and Tong Zhou saw it all.
"Mr. Edward, I have something to tell you. Perhaps after listening to it, you will feel at ease to stay here with these vegetables, fruits, and leather shoes."
Edward stopped roaring and looked at Tong Zhou with sincere eyes. A last glimmer of hope emerged in his heart.
He took two deep breaths to calm himself down.
"Okay, my boy, maybe I should really listen to you, please go ahead!"
“Glory lies in the ordinary, and difficulty lies in the long process.”
After Tong Zhou finished speaking, he looked at the vast Northwest with a deep gaze. Perhaps his words were not directed at others, but more at himself.
Edward's heart seemed to have been hit hard. Perhaps he shouldn't have placed his hopes on this seemingly innocent and idealistic young man.
"Shit! Please tell Mr. Wang Meng that I want to withdraw from the China Aid Advisory Group. I will bear all the consequences personally!"
Edward slammed the door shut after he finished speaking and got into the jeep which had not yet left.
Tong Zhou followed closely behind and stuffed his luggage into the jeep. Perhaps he should also go back to Pingshun.
The next morning, at Pingshun Hotel, Wang Meng met Edward with panda eyes again.
"Mr. Edward, why are you in Pingshun again? Shouldn't you be at the forefront of biological research now?"
"Mr. Wang, if the front line of biological research you are talking about is picking and choosing among rotten vegetables and fruits, I'm sorry, I can't do it!"
Wang Meng gave him a joking look. Whether as a biologist or an agent, Edward was only a half-baked expert.
"Mr. Edward, don't you understand the significance of strains to biological research? The work you undertake will be the most important part of biological research, and it is also a starting point!"
Edward's face became more and more ugly. He could endure cultivating and screening strains, but he could not accept pretending to be happy working under such harsh conditions.
"Mr. Wang, with all due respect, I really cannot see your respect for the M Country Aid China Advisory Group."
"There is an old Chinese saying that a good start is half the battle! You have undertaken the most important strain screening work. Isn't this enough respect and importance for you?"
Edward looked at Wang Meng with a sneer. There was no way he would return to Country M in such disgrace.
Even if he wanted to go back, he had to cause some trouble to this man. In short, he couldn't let him suffer happily!
"Mr. Wang Meng, I feel this is unfair. I demand a fair result. Perhaps you should call together all the members of the China Aid Advisory Group!"
Wang Meng spread his hands, showing a helpless expression.
"Mr. Edward, since you insist so much, I have no choice but to disregard the deep friendship between our two countries and hold a hearing that is not glorious!"
"Exactly what I want!"
Wang Meng convened most of the foreign advisory group to aid China in the auditorium of Pingshun Hotel.
Edward and Wang Meng stood in the middle of the auditorium and began to confront each other.
"Mr. Edward, you have completely broken my heart. I entrusted you with the most important strain screening work, and you treated me like this? As we all know, the variety and quality of strains directly affect subsequent research and production, so I fully trust your character and ability to entrust this work to you!"
Wang Meng emphasized the word "character" because he wanted Edward to understand the situation himself and to quit while he was ahead.
The engineers who came to China to help and gathered in a circle also nodded frequently. Although they were not experts in biology, they knew a little about it from reading scientific magazines in Country M.
"Mr. Edward, maybe there is nothing wrong with what the king said. Maybe you should carefully consider your choice again!"
"Yes, maybe you should reflect on this!"
More and more experts joined the ranks of accusing Edward, which surprised him somewhat.
Maybe Wang Meng gave too much!
"Gentlemen, gentlemen, listen to me. I won't even mention how bad the environment of the so-called Pingshun Academy of Sciences Biological Research Institute's test field is. Just look at the two assistants he assigned to me, and you'll know how incredible it is!"
Wang Meng touched his "conscience" and felt heartbroken.
"Mr. Edward, I can assure you with all my heart that the assistants I assign to you are all top talents!"
Edward was so angry that he laughed. How could such a person be called a talent?
"Really? A deaf man in his seventies, plus a bookworm with a brain full of unrealistic ideas and no knowledge?"
Wang Meng showed an incredible expression, his face was full of fear, and he pointed at Tong Zhou.
"What? You said he's a nerd who knows nothing?"
Edward didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement with Wang Meng's words.
"Gentlemen, this Mr. Tong Zhou is an expert professor invited by Jinnan. He graduated from the University of Brussels with a doctorate degree, and then taught at Shandong University and Central National University. You say that such a person knows nothing?"
The advisory group members who were watching began to murmur quietly. In their opinion, Edward was indeed suspected of finding fault with everything.
Edward was a little flustered in the face of increasing accusations. Could it be that he had hit a wall this time?
"No! I don't believe it!"
Tong Zhou walked up to Edward obediently and slowly took out his graduation certificate and some photos of studying in Brussels.
"Mr. Edward, I admit that I often have some unrealistic ideas, but I am not ashamed of it. Because science is romantic!"
Edward's head was buzzing. He didn't hear the second half of Tong Zhou's words at all. He only saw the full page of photos.
"Mr. Edward, we paid you a lot of money to assist us in scientific research, but you treated us with disdain and insult. I want to protest to Minister Louis!"
Edward was completely defeated in this battle. He wanted to describe the hard-of-hearing old man in detail, but when he saw the excited engineers and Chinese people, he shut his mouth.
If he can "slander" a PhD from Brussels as a nerd who knows nothing, who would believe what he says?
Edward was completely defeated in this battle.
"Mr. Edward, we will take you with us next time we go to Kunming to deliver goods. Maybe you are not suitable to stay in Pingshun!"
Edward slumped down and found a chair to sit down. He originally wanted to come to China to make some money, but he didn't expect that all his efforts were in vain. Perhaps when he returns to Country M, he will have to face a bigger storm!
There are two other people waiting for their fate like him...
