Chapter 634: Cheers from 10,000 meters in the air
On the evening of the second day after arriving in Los Angeles, Tian Lu and his younger brother Tian Yong arrived at Los Angeles International Airport in a car from the Consulate General.
In addition to diplomats such as Wu Chaoyun and Cao Dashan, there were also personal friends such as senior brother Lei Kang and senior sister Fang Hua, as well as several partners from UCLA and Ronald Reagan Medical Center. There are three other people, who are reporters and videographers of national television, who deliberately want to follow Tian Lu back to China and cover the whole process on the road!
There are six cars and a send-off team of more than 20 people, which makes Tian Lu and his party particularly eye-catching!
"Fortunately, you met the needs of the American media last night and this morning, otherwise, I am afraid that there would be more people around at this time. β
After staying in the United States for so many years, Lei Kang is very aware of the power of the American media, especially the Los Angeles media, and can't help but laugh and joke at this time.
After hearing this, Tian Lu himself couldn't help but be happy.
Not to mention last night's dinner, this morning's academic report was also full of guests, more than half the scale of which was planned, and many of them were reporters from the United States. Although Americans pay much less attention to foreigners' awards, Tian Lu's identity is too special.
After so many years of development, Huaguo has become a natural competitor in the eyes of the Americans, and it is also a competitor with great potential for future development! This has already formed a consensus in the minds of many Americans, so the first scientist in Huaguo to win the Nobel Prize has naturally attracted a lot of attention.
The time to come is relatively accurate, so the time to take off from the plane after completing the formalities is not long.
When everyone just arrived at the boarding gate. A consulate staff member who arrived first immediately greeted him and whispered a few words in Wu Chaoyun's ear, and then he immediately smiled at Tian Lu and said: "Professor Tian, the airport has communicated in advance, in order to express respect for the Nobel laureates, and also to avoid unexpected problems caused by being recognized by passengers on the same plane, so the airport has specially opened a special channel for the five of you to allow you to board the plane in advance." β
"Ohγγγγγγ? Is it appropriate?"
Tian Lu was immediately overjoyed, this was a treatment he had never received before! In fact, on the way to the airport, Tian Lu was worried about this problem, and the Nobel Prize results were announced with photos. Perhaps Americans don't bother to remember the awards of their own winners. But for the Chinese, this will definitely be very impressive.
"In fact, the most important thing is that this is the strong request of the crew of this flight!"
Wu Chaoyun walked to Tian Lu's side and said with a low smile: "The tickets have all been sold out. But to make room for the two of you and the accompanying journalists. Air China went out of its way to convince several first-class passengers. And as soon as the other party heard your name, he immediately accepted it without mentioning any conditions! Professor Tian, your name is very loud in the land of China now!"
"This γγγγγγ β
After being slightly stunned, a warm current suddenly surged in Tian Lu's heart. I didn't know what to say for a while.
After seeing the change in Tian Lu's expression, knowing that his words had achieved his goal, Wu Chaoyun smiled slightly, and then didn't say anything more, but said with a smile: "Professor Tian, the guide staff at the airport, including the crew greeting personnel, are already waiting for you, and on behalf of all the personnel of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the United States, I wish you a smooth journey back to China!"
Stretching out his right hand and shaking Wu Chaoyun heavily, Tian Lu said in a deep voice: "Thank you, thank you for everything you have done for me!"
After shaking hands with Cao Dashan and other diplomats who were not familiar with each other, and hugging Lei Kang and other friends and partners, Tian Lu took his younger brother and others to turn around and walk into the special passage.
"Welcome to Air China flight CA983, I am Liao Ming, the captain of this flight, and this is my colleague Zhang Quansheng, I am very honored to be able to send Professor Tian back to China!"
From the moment Tian Lu stepped into the special passage, two men in uniform immediately greeted him, and after introducing himself, he immediately enthusiastically went to pick up the trolley case in the hands of the two. The reporters and videographers were carrying heavy camera equipment, otherwise they would have taken over the luggage of the two of them.
"Thank you, sorry everyone. β
Although he was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the other party, Tian Lu still handed the box to the other party, and then turned back and waved his hand to the person who saw him off, and walked forward with the two captains. At this time, three reporters and videographers from the national television station were already running forward quicklyγγγγγγ
"Welcome Professor Tian Lu to this flight!"
As soon as he walked into the cabin, Tian Lu was stunned again.
The international route, and it is a long-distance route of more than 12 hours, the members of the Boeing 777 crew are as many as 20 people, all of them are lined up on both sides at this moment, and after seeing Tian Lu come in, all of them bowed slightly, and the greeting was also neat and tight, obviously just rehearsed.
"Hehe, thank you, thank you!"
Tian Lu, who reacted quickly, immediately arched his hand and greeted everyone with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, a flight attendant in her twenties, who seemed to be the most beautiful of the many girls, walked over with a large bouquet of flowers, held it up to Tian Lu, and said with a slightly red face: "Professor Tian, on behalf of all the staff of Air China, I would like to congratulate you on winning the Nobel Prize!"
"Thank you. β
After receiving the flowers, Tian Lu returned the girl with a bright smile, which made her face redder and redder in an instant, and immediately lowered her head like a little rabbit and ran back.
Speaking of which, there is another month to be Tian Lu's forty years old, for a woman, forty years old is an annoying age, but for a man, this is the best time! Although Tian Lu is not a beautiful man, nor is he a handsome child, but he looks white and clean, and his figure is also very well-proportioned, coupled with the aura of the Nobel Prize, it does have the charm of making young girls blush!
Sure enough, after the necessary etiquette. A large group of flight attendants immediately surrounded the field, signed autographs, and took group photos, and they were very busy. Outside of them, the men were also waiting, waiting for the flight attendants to come up when they were done. There is still some time before boarding, and everyone is taking advantage of this rare opportunity to leave an unforgettable memory for themselves.
During this period, the two cameras prepared in advance have been working tirelessly to record all the scenes after Tian Lu stepped into the cabin.
I took a picture with almost everyone. After signing too. Tian Lu was relieved, and Liao Ming stepped forward to disperse everyone, leaving only the first-class flight attendants. In addition, it should be noted that in order to be able to provide more thoughtful and meticulous service to Tianlu. Two flight attendants were added to the flight. Full-time service in first class.
"Professor Tian. I have a question that I would like to ask you for. β
After everyone dispersed, Liao Ming walked over with a smile on his face and said softly, "Wait for all the passengers to board the plane." We know that if you're on the plane, you're going to get a lot of movement, so we'd like to talk to you ahead of time to see what to doγγγγγγ β
γγγγγγ
After about half an hour, the passengers finally started boarding.
But what made Tian Lu a little strange was that although he heard a noisy sound, no one had ever entered the first class cabin. It stands to reason that there are eight seats in first class, but there are only five people plus reporters and videographers, and there are three seats, after all, this is a popular route, and it is impossible for no one to sit on it.
However, until the cabin door closed, no one entered the first class cabin and sat down.
Curious, Tian Lu asked a flight attendant softly, and the other party smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "Professor Tian, in order to provide you with a quiet and comfortable environment, we have adopted the method of compensation to persuade all first-class passengers to change to other flights, you can rest assured!"
"Ughγγγγγγ β
After Tian Lu heard this arrangement, he immediately smiled helplessly. Although he expected that if he won the Nobel Prize, he would definitely get a lot, but if it was to this extent, it would be a little unsettling.
"Professor Tian, this is the treatment you deserve. β
seemed to see Tian Lu's uneasiness, and the accompanying female reporter Xiao Yun immediately leaned over and smiled: "How many years has we been looking forward to the Nobel Prize in China, it can be said that the whole country is paying attention to it, this little privilege, no one will say anything." β
Having said that, Tian Lu still felt that it was inappropriate in his heart, but at this point, it was useless for him to think about anything, so he could only sigh secretly and wait for the plane to take off in his seat.
After waiting for another ten minutes or so, after several broadcasts, the plane rushed into the air with a huge roar and vibration!
After the plane flew smoothly, a flight attendant walked to Tian Lu's side, lowered her head and asked softly, "Professor Tian, is it okay now?"
"That's it. β
After moving his legs and feet, Tian Lu smiled and nodded.
After seeing and hearing the conversation between the two, the two cameramen immediately got busy, reassembling the cameras they had just placed, one was set up in the first class, and the other was guided by the flight attendant and walked out at the door of the economy class.
Not long after the plane took off, a camera suddenly appeared, and all the passengers were very surprised and straightened up.
Just when everyone was guessing what program was going to be recorded, the plane's broadcast system started running again, but this time it was not a sweet female voice, but a man's voice: "Hello passengers, welcome to Air China flight CA983, I am Liao Ming, the captain of this flight." I believe many people know that in the early morning of yesterday morning American time, that is, at about 8 o'clock in the evening of the 4th of Kyoto time, the winners of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine were announced, and Professor Tian Lu, a famous scientist in China, won this honor!"
After hearing Liao Ming's words, there was a sudden movement in the cabin.
This is an international flight, although there are many Americans, but at least two-thirds of them are pure Chinese or Chinese, and it is natural to be a little excited to hear the news again.
Anyway, that's your own pride, isn't it?
But the question is, why did the captain deliberately read out this well-known news again?
"Here, I would like to inform you of one thing!"
Before everyone could guess the reason, Liao Ming's voice had already sounded again: "When the results of the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine were announced, Professor Tian Lu was not in China, but was on an academic visit in the United States, and it was in California, where our plane took offγγγγγγ β
"Yikes!"
Hearing this, a woman in her thirties suddenly exclaimed!
And with this exclamation, the sΔo in the cabin moved even more, and many people seemed to have guessed something at this moment, and then looked at the camera in front of them, their faces suddenly showed surprise and joy!
Liao Mingde's voice continued: "γγγγγγ Yes, it is a great honor for our Air China flight CA983 to take on the task of sending Professor Tian Lu back to China, and he himself is now sitting in the first class cabin of the planeγγγγγγ β
"Boom!"
The whole cabin suddenly boiled!
At an altitude of 10,000 meters, the small cabin resounded with cheers that made the plane shakeγγγγγγγ
