Chapter 20: A Roundabout (2)
There is some truth to the saying that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.
Soon after Nie Peng returned to the laboratory after breakfast, a group of school leaders gathered downstairs, and if he was at the scene, he would find that almost all of the people present were the gods of the School of Life Sciences.
Vice-Chancellor, Head of Department, Counselor...
Li Yunfeng was dressed casually at the moment, wearing a jacket and jacket, accompanied by the vice principal, and was squeezed by the middle-aged man in a straight suit on the other side:
"Lao Li, it's not like that, Ah Si Likang's experts came to visit, why do you wear this, why don't you give you a set another day?" The man combed his hair meticulously, and played Morse stereotype, which seemed a little unusual in the team of a group of middle-aged and elderly professors.
"Du Mingli," the vice principal who stood at the top didn't want the two to intensify the conflict here, and pointed to the man's name and said, "Are the banners and conference rooms arranged?" ”
"It's all arranged, and the banners are ready to be made," Du Mingli pointed at the students hanging the banners behind him, "The paint hasn't dried yet, I'm afraid that the students won't be able to do it, I called the advertising company last night and specially asked me to hurry." I went to pick it up at four o'clock this morning. ”
"Well, thank you for your hard work." The vice principal heard the meaning of the words and was moderately relieved.
"How can it, it's not hard, it's all about adding glory to our school, and it's always right to be formal." As he spoke, he squinted at Li Yunfeng, which obviously meant that he didn't take the face of the school seriously.
Li Yunfeng was too lazy to take care of him, this Du Mingli's family was rich and powerful. 5 years ago, after a doctorate from abroad, he returned to China to teach, I don't know where to get a few papers published, and led three scientific research projects in the province through his family connections.
The vice principal did not hesitate, and after inspecting the reception work, he led the team to the school gate to greet the guests. Not long after, a team of people walked back in a majestic manner, led by Chen Zhong and Vice Principal, slowly walking forward and visiting the campus.
Du Mingli and Li Yunfeng, as the heads of the department, naturally accompanied the expert group of Ah Si Likang, Du Mingli sometimes told the experts about the history of the campus in a deep and sometimes passionate way, and from time to time interspersed with some proud protégés who he taught back then, and put himself in the position of a master without showing a look.
Li Yunfeng paced calmly, listening to Du Mingli bragging like a joke on the side, others don't know, can he still know?
Back then, the surnamed Du collapsed two of the three provincial projects, and there was a half-dead one who was holding on, and it seemed that he couldn't survive this year. At this level, he is still chattering there that he has rich experience in corporate docking, and he is really bragging about not paying taxes.
Besides, when those "proud protégés" graduated, he Du Mingli had just taken office, did he have a half-dime relationship with him? It's really thick-skinned.
Isn't it just for the position of vice president of the School of Life Sciences?
Li Yunfeng, who was ashamed to be with him, couldn't leave the visiting group and leave alone, so he had to keep his head down and accompany him, plus that casual clothes, at first glance he looked like an agricultural technician accompanying the delegation.
The group walked and chatted, and came to the front of the experimental building, which was under the jurisdiction of the Institute of Life Sciences after all, and the vice president was a little exhausted as an explanation, so he beckoned Li Yunfeng and Du Mingli to come forward as deputy escorts.
Nie Peng took out the baking and drying intermediates at this moment, weighed and packaged them and stored them in sealed bottles. 10 vials, each containing 1 gram of intermediates, for a total of 7 grams of mutations. For now, that's what his moon base relies on.
After cleaning the laboratory, locking the door and leaving, he walked around the corner of the stairs and saw Du Mingli accompanying Chen Zhong up from the bottom of the stairs, followed by a group of people.
As Nie Peng's substitute teacher, Nie Peng still had a little impression of him, and at this moment, looking at him with a flattering face accompanying Chen Zhong, he was a little puzzled, thinking to himself, what is Si Likang doing in school?
Seeing the crowd at the foot of the stairs, there was obviously a lineup of people, Nie Peng, who had not yet thought of a meeting rhetoric, simply turned around and walked back, not giving Chen Zhong a chance to recognize him, which embarrassed everyone.
But the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, he turned around and walked a few steps, when he heard Du Mingli shouting behind him:
"This classmate in front, come over here."
Nie Peng turned his head, he knew Du Mingli, it didn't mean that Du Mingli knew him.
So under Chen Zhong's gradually widening eyes, he walked over stubbornly.
"This is the leader of Ah Si Likang Company who came to inspect, you go downstairs to buy some mineral water for everyone, the leaders are a little thirsty." After speaking, he lowered his chin a little and motioned for Nie Peng to go quickly.
Nie Peng was a little annoyed when he looked at his commanding strength, and said in his heart that it is natural for a disciple to obey his work, but who is the attitude of no one in your eyes to perform? Besides, as a teacher in the Department of Bioengineering, didn't you just take two classes on our behalf, making it look like I owe you, and you don't pay for water?
So Nie Peng's brows furrowed.
This scene fell in Chen Zhong's eyes, and his perennial secretarial work had already trained him to observe words and colors, and he was secretly not good. You can't offend Nie Peng at this time, this is a customer that the Swedish headquarters has specially instructed to treat kindly.
Besides, he originally arranged to visit the school so that he could prepare a spare hole card for the negotiation. According to the information previously available, Nie Peng won many scholarships during his time in school, and his mentor accounted for a lot of weight.
If you can get in touch with Nie Peng's mentor during the visit, then Chen Zhong, who coordinates in the middle all the year round and masters the resources, can completely lead several national-level projects to do a favor and play an emotional card to Nie Peng.
However, before this layout began, the main protagonist was encountered, and the situation seemed to be going in the opposite direction.
"Hello Mr. Nie, I've caused you trouble." Chen Zhong's posture was very low, and he arranged for the entourage next to him to buy water.
Du Mingli was stunned on the spot, this is the senior secretary of Si Likang in front of him, don't talk about himself in front of him, even the vice principal may not be able to let him show this attitude. What is the identity of this student?
Suddenly thinking about it, he said to Chen Zhong with a pretending relaxed attitude: "Mr. Chen, how can you arrange this matter, my student is just lazy, I know how to soak in the laboratory every day, let him move more, it's okay." ”
Chen Zhong was also surprised, could it be that the person next to him who had been beeping for a long time was Nie Peng's mentor? Then this guy should also have some real talents, but why is the thing he said along the way so out of tune.
Just as he was puzzled, Li Yunfeng walked over from the corner and snorted.
"Your students? Can you name him? Li Yunfeng, who had long seen that Du Mingli was not pleasing to the eye, had been following behind the two of them, but he didn't notice the situation here when he was supporting the vice principal, and at this moment, seeing Nie Peng standing in front of Chen Zhong, and Du Mingli's face, he really couldn't bear it.
"Director Li!" Nie Peng's furrowed brows stretched, and there was some joy on his face.
Under Du Mingli's pale face, Li Yunfeng walked over and scolded with a smile: "What are you messing with in the laboratory early in the morning?" "It looked like he was treating his own child.
In fact, this was also Li Yunfeng's intention, he didn't know how Nie Peng could talk to Chen Zhong and Du Mingli, and he didn't even think about it before he came over and made a gesture of protection.
Leaving the vice president behind him, he watched the two department heads, guarding the guests and students to each other, thinking that it was time to make a decision on the position of the vice president.
After talking to Li Yunfeng for a few words, Nie Peng left after saying goodbye to a few people, and the visiting group naturally did not stop because of this small episode, but there was a slight change in the team's affiliation:
Du Mingli, who was next to Chen Zhong, was replaced by Li Yunfeng, and the person who supported the vice principal was also replaced by someone else, but Du Mingli was transferred to the finishing ranks.
And Chen Zhong's commercial conversation before has also become in-depth at this moment, and from time to time he was attracted by Li Yunfeng's words, and then expressed his opinion, this scene fell in the eyes of the vice principal.
。。。。。。
Nie Peng, who left, did not go directly to the company, but returned home, went to find a piece of styrofoam, and it didn't take much effort to process it into the size of the inside of the culture tank, and found a box to put it in.
Then he called Chen Panpan and told her the number of intermediates he could currently dispense, and he was ready for a second contact with Ah Si Likang. The confident tone made Chen Panpan look sideways.
In fact, there is a reason for his self-confidence, and after careful consideration, Nie Peng felt that he could provide a space cultivation environment to Ah Si Likang for a fee, and the price was low.
This is what he learned at the negotiating table yesterday, since Ah Si Likang can use a premium acquisition to attract firepower, and then arrange a means of equity exchange to ambush him, then he can also learn to pack a sugar-coated cannonball to hit him, and when you get on my ship, then you have to do as I say.
Since you want to be tempted, then I'll give you a bombshell at a time to see if you can hold it.
As soon as he hung up the phone, Li Yunfeng's phone came in again, asking what happened this morning and why Chen Zhong knew him.
Nie Peng explained on the phone, he didn't say anything about the mutant, but said that he had some private contacts with the Swiss Research Center, and he met Chen Zhong after coming and going.
Li Yunfeng naturally didn't believe it, but there was no danger, and he followed Nie Peng to mess around, and he still had a lot of things to deal with at present, such as the number of partner universities for several national-level projects that Chen Zhong threw today, as well as the instructions of the vice president after the meeting, which made him smell an unusual atmosphere.
Thinking of Du Mingli's deflated appearance today, as well as the change in Chen Zhong's attitude before and after, Li Yunfeng suddenly remembered the sentence he must say every time a new student starts school:
In this society, we have to keep running to stay where we are.
