"Hello?"

"Uncle..."Xu Mang received the phone and asked helplessly, "Do you want me to explain?" or let me compromise now?"

“...”

"They want you to compromise, because there are still many areas to work with Germany in the future. Uncle said solemnly: "You should know about the Wangbu, right? You have met with him a few times, and he is asking you to apologize, for now... A lot of people supported him. ”

Apologize?

Are you kidding?

Is it because they are foreigners that they have to swallow their anger and apologize to others?

It's the 21st century, so why apologize to them? Not a hundred years ago... Gotta bow your head, now... Their own Mars rovers are on the way, the space station is already under construction, and two aircraft carriers have been launched, so why swallow their anger?

Besides...

In the field of peculiar hadron states, they are obviously inferior to themselves, and they still want to be fair in this situation? The world has never been unfair.

"No way!"

"I absolutely disagree!" Xu Mang said solemnly: "This is a very bad start, if even I start to compromise, then it means that in the future... We will always be on the weak side, and they will make all kinds of demands without a bottom line. ”

"Uncle!"

"The Galileo Project more than a decade ago... We have already been cheated by the Europa League for a lot of money, and there are many cooperation projects, we are all on the weak side, and now we are finally getting up, why do we need to endure it?"

"I used to endure ... There's no way around it, we're really weak, and now we're strong, it's time to make a game with someone else. Xu Mang continued: "I won't agree anyway, unless I am allowed to die." ”

Xu Mang is very angry now, he is angered by this group of people, and the people of the Europa Continent are like this... Their bones are engraved with the gene of looking down on Huaguo, which has been maintained for hundreds of years and is difficult to change, but... I never thought that there was such a group of people with the blood of the 'kneeling clan' in their bones.

In the face of the stubborn Xu Mang, the uncle was also helpless for a while, he knew very well what kind of person his niece and son-in-law was, and he had indeed touched his bottom line, and it was understandable not to agree, but in the current situation, many people hope that Xu Mang will take care of the overall situation.

"Xiao Xu..."

"If you don't agree, then explain the situation, why not, or... Are you coming to the capital now?" the uncle said: "After all, this matter has affected the process of cooperation between the two sides in the future, whether you agree or not, it is best to come... You, as an authority on this, talk about your vision for the future. ”

Xu Mang roughly understood the meaning, the next discussion will affect the development of the entire scientific field to a certain extent, whether it is self-improvement, or become the wronged leader in cooperation, it depends on the result of the discussion.

"I'll book my ticket right away... When will the meeting start?" asked Xu Mang.

"When you get there..."

"Good!"

Hang up the phone,

Xu Mang sighed deeply, his face was full of helplessness and anger, he looked up at his wife and said, "Help me book a ticket to the capital, I want to go to the capital right now, and I'll be back in a few days." ”

"Now?"

"Is there such a hurry?" Yang Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Won't it work tomorrow?"

"Hmm!"

"It's more troublesome now. Xu Mang smiled bitterly: "Wife... I've been working hard for you in the past few days since I'm away, by the way... There is something I need to tell you, help me keep an eye on some public opinion directions on the Internet, and if the public opinion is crooked, you can immediately find someone to delete it. ”

"Huh?"

"Is it already so serious?" Xiao Man said in horror, "Do you want to do it?"

"It's fine!"

"There's always something to deal with. Xu Mang shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "In fact, a lot of unfair treatment, the most fundamental reason is that some people from the inside can't go on like this... Sometimes when it's time to show your muscles, you should show your muscles. ”

"Of course!"

"What I'm talking about is limited to the field of scientific research. Xu Mang smiled: "Others... I don't know much, but I have enough say in this field, and as long as I am there, I will never let foreigners bully us in the field of scientific research. ”

"Husband..."

"You have to be careful, you have made too many enemies lately, which will make you the target of public criticism, without an inch of security around you, full of loneliness. Xiao Man said worriedly: "Sometimes it is necessary to compromise or compromise. ”

truly

Xu Mang also felt that he had made a lot of enemies recently, but he was also forced to be helpless, maybe he had an attribute... It's called the Enemy Auto-Attract attribute.

"Whatever!"

"There are more people in the world who hate me, and it doesn't matter how many more people there are. Xu Mang smiled and said, "Help me prepare my luggage." ”

...

Half past nine in the evening,

Xu Mang was sitting in the VIP waiting area, making a phone call to Guo Hua.

"Academician Xu..."

"The other party replied to our email, and they said... Hopefully we'll lower the conditions a little bit more. Guo Hua said: "Academician Xu... Should we publish the paper first? Post it on the preset website to prevent the other party from getting ahead of us. ”

"Hmm!"

"You can decide on this matter, I'm going to the capital now. Xu Mang said helplessly: "Your team continues to study, don't affect your progress because of these few things, if the personnel are not enough, talk to Sun Chuan Xiaoxiao, and transfer personnel from other teams." ”

"Good!"

hang up

Xu Mang hurriedly made a phone call to Brother Chuan Xiao and recounted the matter discussed with Guo Hua to him.

When everything is done,

Silently put the phone back in his trouser pocket and collapsed directly on the sofa.

I'm so tired!

I don't know what the situation will be tomorrow and how to solve it... If it can't be resolved this time, then for a long time in the future, there will be a state in the back of my mind that it is okay to sign an unfair agreement.

Are you kidding...

How is there no problem?

I wasn't strong before, and I was bullied by others, so I was helpless... Now the situation has completely changed, and the result is still bullied...

One more point...

If you only rely on simple cooperation, it is impossible to go too far, because if you don't have it, others will not give it to you, and if you work hard, you have made a little bit of a difference, and some countries say they want to sell it to you in order to make money, but it is a second-hand goods.

The cooperation of the peculiar hadron state is the best proof, there is no relative strength, relying on the glory of the past to deceive oneself, backtracking...

"Ugh..."

Xu Mang let out a long sigh, and took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, on which was a photo of himself, his wife and two children, and a sense of exhaustion swept over him in an instant.

...

When I arrived in the capital,

It's already the middle of the night,

Xu Mang took a taxi directly to the hotel, and he was greeted by the general manager of the hotel.

"Uncle..."

"The room is ready for you, if you need anything, just talk to the front desk. The general manager said respectfully: "That's right... By the way, I have prepared your driver for tomorrow, what time are you leaving tomorrow?"

"At half past seven in the morning, he was asked to wait for me in front of the hotel. Xu Mang said: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"No, no, no!"

"That's as it should be. ”

After saying goodbye to the manager, Xu Mang came to his room, took out his notebook, and read the research content of the hadron interaction study over and over again, and thought about it for a long time... Didn't send it out in the end.

presently

In this brand-new field, Huaguo has stood in the first position, and only the competitive German Federal Institute of Particle Research has long lost its core competitiveness.

I don't know why they haven't recognized this reality yet.

This sense of superiority of the mystery,

Incomprehensible.

"Hello?"

"Hmm... I've arrived. Xu Mang received a call from Xiao Man, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow morning at half past seven o'clock, the meeting will start at nine o'clock, not so much to start as to let me explain, you know my temper." ”

"I'm not convinced. ”

"Life depends on one word... Why!" Xu Mang smiled: "Don't worry. ”

"Husband?"

"I'm still a little worried... Tomorrow you have to suppress your anger and don't kick your nose and face at every turn. Xiao Man said worriedly: "Did you hear that... Uncle called me before, hoping that I can persuade you that this meeting tomorrow is very important to decide the direction of future cooperation. ”

"Oh..."

"Anyway, my thoughts are... Cooperation is possible, but it must not be too deceitful. Xu Mang said: "What should be fought for must be fought for." ”

“...”

"You stubborn bull!" Yang Xiaoman said angrily: "Anyway, it's good, don't make trouble." ”

Syllable!

was hung up,

Xu Mang looked at his mobile phone and estimated that Xiao Man was very angry now.

What can I do?

Pretend not to see?

Following

At half past seven in the morning,

Xu Mang slowly came to the door of the hotel, an Audi A8L had been waiting for a long time, and glanced at the license plate... It is estimated that it was sent down from above.

meanwhile

In a conference room,

Several staff members were nervously arranging, and many people were a little curious about why it was so sudden.

"What's the situation?"

"It's going to be a meeting so suddenly, it used to be days in advance, and now... I received the notification at half past five in the morning. One of the staff members said, "Do you know the situation?"

"Shh

"I've already inquired!"

"Yesterday our minister was angry ... Seem... In short, I was very angry. A young woman said: "I heard that I called Academician Xu Mang overnight, and there are many related people, it seems that the matter is serious after all." ”

"Ahem!"

"Don't spread some words nonsense!" A middle-aged man present reprimanded solemnly: "In the absence of certainty, don't spread these remarks indiscriminately, otherwise no one can escape responsibility when they are investigated, no matter who is behind you." ”

In a flash

The conference room returned to a busy state, and everyone began to set up the scene in earnest.

After a long time,

The first person came to the conference room, and he was Xu Mang.

"Huh?"

"Am I the first?"

......
