At the end of the first day of the Mitutoyo Award jury, the judges returned to the hotel in twos and threes, and after a short rest, the phones in their respective rooms rang.

The caller is either a fellow judge, or a close friend, and the opening remark must be "find a time to chat", and everyone knows exactly what to talk about.

As soon as the five judges of Huaxia returned to the room, they immediately began to call some judges who were more familiar or close to each other to "chat".

The so-called chat is public relations, but if you want to win an award, unless you have far more achievements than others, you must have public relations.

You say that you don't want to do PR at all, because your grades are amazing?

Yes, great results must be able to win the Mitutoyo Award, but when you win the award is not necessarily.

There's someone older than you this year, give it to him.

Next year, if there's someone with similar grades as you, give it to him.

In the year after that, there was a person who was a woman, and in line with the principle of equality between men and women, give it to her.

The Queen's ...... If you don't have a public relations, you will definitely have a chance to win the award, so line up. Public relations is like a fast pass to a playground, everyone is also queuing, and after public relations, you can enter the first place to have fun, and if you don't have public relations, you can only watch the queue in the back.

Sometimes, the research community is one step behind, and this year's winner may immediately receive tens of millions of dollars in investment to continue the next step of research. And what about those who don't win awards, no matter how great your achievements are, if you don't win an award, you will have less attraction and less right to speak, even if you win an award next year or the year after, do you dare to guarantee that you will invest tens of millions of dollars every year?

Public relations is simply a step that every winner of the Mitutoyo Award must go through, but for the sake of face and some rules, they never do public relations in person, they all entrust others.

Of course, Gao Yuan would not personally entrust the five judges to do public relations, but the government and military in Huaxia and the bigwigs in the martial arts world have spoken, and the five judges must bear this additional responsibility. All they have to do is to convince as many other judges as possible in the next few days to get enough votes for Gao Yuan.

Not only the judges of Huaxia, but also the judges of Eagle Country, Cactus Country, and Bear Country are also working public relations. Especially the judges of the Bear Country, they occupy the right time and place, not only in person, but also the people of the Romanov family in the Bear Country have also gone out, using all the relationships that can be used, to ask the judges out, or to move them with affection, or to allow them to benefit, or to tempt them, in short, the judges will provide what they like, and they are not afraid of not taking the bait.

The Huaxia judges found resistance at the beginning of public relations, but they could only bite the bullet. There is no way, they have made a military order before they came, if Gao Yuan can't get the award, it will not only be them who will lose face, but also the entire Chinese martial arts community, the government and the military!

The next morning was a presentation of achievements, and the achievements of the five nominees were needless to say, each of whom had made outstanding contributions in their respective fields, otherwise they would not have been nominated.

But it is also because of the different fields that all achievements need to be quantified in order to determine who is more prominent.

For example, in terms of cultivation methods, the vacuum cultivation method has to be compared with the mineral cultivation system. And Yuan Taiyue's internal qi retrogression theory and Gao Yuan's life gate fire theory are also theories, and they also score a who is higher and who is low.

On the contrary, because Romanov is a genetic research scholar, the improvement effect of the S-037 gene can only be compared horizontally with the cultivation method and martial arts theory.

Horizontal comparison? By what standard, and who will calculate it? This kind of thing is the most boring, and this is where public relations comes into play.

After a horizontal comparison of pretense, false model, and pure formalism, the percentage of achievement of the five people showed the initial power of public relations.

In first place is Romanov with 87.42 points.

In second place is Charlie with 85.91 points.

The third is Gao Yuan, with 85.27 points.

Fourth is Allen, with 84.15 points.

At the bottom of the list is Yuan Taiyue with 81.77 points.

Except for Romanov, who won first place, and Yuan Taiyue, who finished at the end, the scores of the other three were about the same, indicating that the public relations efforts were about the same.

The first Romanov has the assistance of the right time, place and people, and the family has also come up with hundreds of millions of funds in one go, just wanting to win a Mitutoyo Award winner.

He was given up by Huaxia a long time ago, and he did not withdraw from the award just because of face problems, and the nomination was a little reluctant, and there was no public relations anymore, and the result can be imagined.

After the presentation of achievements in the morning, the secret ballot for the preliminary screening began in the afternoon.

One nominee will be screened out in this round, and everyone guessed the outcome before the voting began.

Sure enough, after the votes were announced, Yuan Taiyue took the lead with 82 votes and took the lead in withdrawing from the competition.

The other 13 votes were scattered among Gao Yuan, Allen and Charlie, and Romanoff did not even have a single vote.

The direction of the wind in the initial screening almost guided the following discussion.

Almost everyone is optimistic about Romanov, first, the S-037 gene does have a major effect on the human body, and it is an important milestone achievement on the road to the combination of martial arts and genes.

Second, the Romanov family made a bloody public relations.

In the case of similar achievements, one spent a lot of money on public relations to serve the judges comfortably, and the other is also quite good, but who will the judges choose?

It's like two children who scored 100 points in the exam want to be a member of the study committee, one parent gives the teacher a supermarket shopping card, and the other parent doesn't do anything. Who believes that the choice made by the teacher has no tendencies and has nothing to do with the shopping card?

And after the preliminary screening, Romanov's name frequently appeared among the judges, and everyone seemed to be not shy about their love for Romanov.

The judges in Huaxia were anxious and hurriedly contacted China, hoping to make a little remedy.

But this is the country of bears, the territory of the Romanov family. No matter how long Huaxia's hand is, it can destroy a star in the starry sky, but it is difficult to reach the bear country......

In the blink of an eye, on October 30, the Chinese side tried several methods for public relations, but all of them met with great resistance.

The power of the Romanov family is really not covered, and it controls the political, military, martial arts, research, and academic circles of the Bear Country, and the difficulty of foreign forces trying to infiltrate is comparable to using a crowbar to pry the earth.

Fortunately, Huaxia's efforts have not been without results. In the second screening vote that day, Gao Yuan received 25 votes, successfully eliminated Allen with 34 votes and Charlie with 36 votes, and entered the final election.

On October 31, the final round of discussion and voting will be held to select the final winner of this year's Mitutoyo Award between Gao Yuan and Romanov.
