Three days later, in Beijing, the Foreign Investment Commission.

Gu Biao returned to China as scheduled, and went through the handover procedures of "ending the suspension of leave without pay and resuming the original job".

His identity has also been officially restored to the treatment of a deputy director and director level of the Machinery and Technology Office of the Foreign Investment Commission.

In the coming year, he will return to his old business and assist the director of the office to complete the major project of "breaking through the blockade of the gray area of the barrel and the overall theft of technology" together with the director of the department (deputy department level).

(Because of YD officialdom, the details of this part of the plot will not be expanded at that time.) ）

After completing the formalities and returning to his office, Director Bao and several other colleagues actually blocked the door and waited for him very politely.

"Comrade Xiao Gu, welcome back. The chief said as he tossed him a cigar.

Gu Biao: "Uncle Bao, you are too polite, you are all old acquaintances, why are you polite to me." ”

Director Bao patted him on the shoulder: "Yes, Xiao Gu, you are highly conscious, and it is worth learning from us - you are willing to return to China after studying for a doctorate with Professor Kissinger."

Do you know that when the deputy director approved you to go abroad, he was mentally prepared for you to stay and not return. After all, it is worth sacrificing a talent in exchange for one more country that has diplomatic relations with George Town and that the Waltz Diplomatic College in Georgetown is a graduate school for mainland students. ”

Other colleagues also echoed: "Xiao Gu, don't you know, since last year, the state has released some little comrades who have gone out to study." Tut-tut, when I was in China, I looked at the good learning and high consciousness, and I saw the sound of dogs and horses outside, so I ...... Alas. ”

Gu Wei was silent for two seconds, obviously knowing what they were talking about.

In the 80s, the problem of lack of self-confidence in China really needs to be faced. Even if there is no problem in the diplomatic system itself, it is inevitable that there will be unspeakable situations in the surrounding personnel.

Not to mention that international students don't want to come back when they go out, it's all too common.

After all, even if you become a county magistrate, maybe the material living conditions are not as good as an ordinary worker in the United States, who doesn't want to live a good life. (If it is a special deformity like Detroit, a very small number of workers are 700,000 US dollars a year, then the provincial and municipal leaders can't catch up)

Although it took a lot of money to train Gu Biao at the Foreign Affairs Academy, Gu Biao was still the top talent in that batch.

But if you give up the talent of Gu Biao and can exchange it for one more country that has established diplomatic relations, then the people above this deal will definitely think that it is a good deal.

Maybe during the Chinese New Year, "Renren Daily" reported on his good deeds in a large space, and after confirming his position, he mediated and showed goodwill, gave him a sweet date, and strengthened his confidence in coming back.

Gu Biao couldn't help but sigh: "Actually, everyone is too worried, I know the severity." What is good about foreign countries. That's just a mature and saturated society. Where there is a place like us, there is an upward channel all the time, and the future is great. ”

Director Bao smiled: "If you are willing to think so, then it is best." After a while, at noon, the deputy director may have to personally pick you up, think about it, how to speak at that time. ”

"Thank you Uncle Bao for reminding me, I'll pay attention. ”

"By the way, as far as I know, you've invested money in the United States to make a movie — is there a video for us to see, and let's see what the latest American blockbuster looks like. After talking about business, Director Bao couldn't help but tease.

Gu Biao: "I have a copy of the film, and I'll get it for you when the time comes." ”

Director Bao: "Who wants to copy, we don't have a place to put the film if you have it, we only have a video recorder at home." ”

Gu Biao: "Yes, then wait a few days, I'll find a friend to help me rip it." ”

"Forget it, let's go, let's go to the wind banquet first. ”

(Interaction with senior leaders omitted)

……

In the days when the Foreign Investment Commission coordinated the secret work, it was tense and low-key.

When he returned to the capital, Gu Biao did not inform any of his friends who were originally in Beijing, except for Mina.

So that night, Mina, who had been separated for four months, came to the door pitifully to catch up.

"Brother, people want to die. ”

"I miss you too. ”

"Really, what's the idea? It's not just that the heart is here, and the body relies on other ways to dispel the feelings of longing. ”

"You're doing the opposite! If you don't want to do that, see if I don't teach you a lesson!"

Gu Biao originally wanted to be very pure, but he was still provoked to be angry, and pressed Mina to prop her hands on the wall at the head of the bed and obediently yoga.

The prancing horse whipped for two hours, and the three discharges were like doomed.

"Brother, it's someone else's fault, spare me. They didn't mean it. In the end, in Mina's confession, the whipping was over, "Brother, you have to believe me, people said they didn't want to do this, they were sincere." After following you, I gradually wanted it, and it's true, is it all my fault? ”

Mina said as she still hugged Gu Biao and didn't let go.

"It's all over, why are you holding it so tightly. Stuffy. ”

"Brother, you don't know, among those classmates, in the past six months, there have been rumors that you are not coming back, and there are all kinds of rumors. It makes me angry...... But I was really panicked. Mina burst into tears as she spoke.

Gu Biao was angry and funny: "What's there to worry about, aren't we okay in Iraq, how can I not come back with such a big career." ”

Mina wiped a handful of tears: "Brother, you won't blame me for not believing you, right?" In fact, people believe it very much, that is, it is terrifying to listen to people's words every day - many people say strange things, saying that they have become a closed disciple of Kissinger, and even if the future of the country is great, it is not worth nostalgia. Even if you become the BU chief in the future, it is better to be a high-class guest winner in the United States. ”

Gu Biao sighed.

Only then did he realize how much mental pressure he had put on his women by leaving them in the country.

Because any achievement he has made abroad is good news in the eyes of the people of the time to increase the probability that he will not return.

People who have just opened their doors are too unconfident by the development outside.

Mina and Suizi are still Gu Biao who have made the overall plan and put it out, and if they are other people who don't know the inside story, it is not surprising that the rumors will spread.

At the end, Mina didn't forget to say in a daze: "The thing I don't regret the most is to give myself to you." Brother, no matter what nationality you are from in this life, I will follow you for the rest of your life. You are really magical, everything is good and everything is powerful, after the girl gives you her heart, she is willing to commit treason for you, sometimes I am afraid to think about it. ”

Gu Biao's heart was weak for a while: "I'm afraid...... Are you afraid that I will use my personality charm to conquer foreign girls and make them treason?"

Mina was keenly aware of the slightest hint of the same, straightened up, and asked, "Do you really do this in the United States?

"I didn't ...... Not yet, Mina, don't think about it. Gu Biao sweated slightly.

"That's it, it's not there for the time being, bad brother, never want to lie to people! It's okay to coax people," Mina slapped him with a wry smile, "Don't worry, I can control you." If you really have the ability, go for it. But I won't let you give it to you. ”

Gu Biao inevitably told him about his daily life in the United States, and gradually told Mina and Pan.

Mina knew that Gu Biao's physical body had really not crossed (otherwise it would not be possible to have so enough ammunition when checking the operation), so she believed that he was not distracted, but just socialized on the spot, and her heart was very relieved.

After a week or two of peace in the capital, it was mid-June.

Gu Biao lives in seclusion every day, except for going to work in relevant departments, and when he goes home, he hangs out with Mina, and the rest of his friends in Beijing always keep it secret.

During this period, he asked Mina to take the copy of the "Terminator" movie he brought back from the United States, and went to Beiying to find Gu Changwei and help turn it into a videotape.

After getting it, Gu Biao secretly circulated it privately to his colleagues in the office, which can be regarded as getting closer to his colleagues.

There were two copies left at school, but Mina was only told to tell them that they had been sent back by airmail. Soon, the original English version of "The Terminator" became the most popular play for the students of the Foreign Affairs University every night. Because the school has opened the supply screening hall, it has not been full for a year or two, which shows the appeal of "Terminator".

It was a Friday, and it was already the graduation ceremony of the 77th class of the Foreign Affairs University -- the practice of the Foreign Affairs University is that the graduation ceremony is held a little earlier than other universities, and the certificates and other things are also issued earlier.

Of course, because some students choose to change to a 3+2 bachelor's and master's degree system halfway, these students will not graduate this year, and those who graduate are only those who go to the embassy of a small country to work as a secretary after completing their bachelor's degree.

As for Mina and Yang Xin, because they have made meritorious contributions to the project with Gu Biao and Ye Kun, they have accumulated a lot of academic achievements, so even though they are 78 grades, they can also complete their graduate studies and graduate next year.

It is said that he has been classmates for three years, and Gu Biao should still celebrate with his old classmates. It's a pity that considering the large number of people, it is impossible to only appear in front of some people, avoid other idle people, etc., so I can only continue to be invisible.

He just asked Mina to come back with her camera and take some photos of her graduation as a souvenir.

That night, looking at the graduation photos taken by Mina, Gu Biao remembered that the commission trainee exchange program on Schulhoff's side didn't know how the mediation was going, so he sent him a transatlantic phone call to ask.

After all, the 77th class of the Foreign Affairs University has graduated, and other normal universities at the level of Zhejiang University are also coming soon.

Schulhoff reassured him on the phone, saying that everything had been arranged, and he had communicated with Zhejiang University by fax, and the intention was no problem, and he could bring a professor from Stanford who had the right to sign on behalf of him tomorrow and fly directly to Qiantang.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. Gu Biao hung up the phone.

Mina, who was cooking, was very keen: "Are you going out? Do you want to go home and see? It's been ten days since you returned to China, you really should go home to visit your family, and the unit will definitely grant you family leave." ”

"Well, I'll fly to Qiantang at night after work tomorrow. Use the weekend and take two or three days of family leave. It's not good to take too long. ”

Mina sighed and secretly called Xiao Sui to inform Gu Biao of his itinerary.

"Sister Sui, the final exam is over, the days when Brother Gu returns to the south, only you take care of him. ”
