Back To The Age Of The 80s

"Invitation from the Governor's Mansion?" Li Zheng took the black envelope handed over by Zheng Lingling and turned it over and saw the Governor's personal seal on the seal.

"Sent it this morning."

This morning? In other words, when he was still on the plane, this invitation had already been sent to Li Zheng's laboratory.

Li Zheng opened the envelope.

"I sincerely invite Mr. Li Zheng to enjoy a good tea time at Mid-Levels One." The signature was Edward Wharton and his wife.

Li Zheng frowned slightly. Because of the Chinese military garrison incident in May, the contradiction between the Chinese and British sides on the issue of Xiangjiang has been brought to light. His recent international appearances are all Chinese creatures. The title of a scholar, the Governor of Hong Kong invited him to the mansion for afternoon tea at this time. If it was a whim, he would not believe it.

Li Zheng looked at the watch on his wrist. It was almost one o'clock in the afternoon. If he wanted to go to the appointment, he should set off.

Liang Zhe stepped forward and walked to his side.

"I'll go with you." He whispered.

Li Zheng shook his head, "It's better for you not to show up on this matter."

The Liang family is a local family in Xiangjiang. In this kind of political struggle, they remain neutral and do not stand in line. After that, no matter which party rules Xiangjiang, they will mainly win and appease.

But if it is accidentally involved in the struggle between the two parties, it will not be so easy to get out. Li Zhengming knew that Britain would be the loser of this game, so naturally he would not hope Liang Zhe had too much contact with the Governor of Hong Kong at this time.

Liang Zhe frowned slightly.

Li Zheng was dumb. He shook Liang Zhe's hand and said softly to him: "Don't worry, it's just an afternoon tea." In this political struggle, his identity as a scholar is a natural protective film. .

Not to mention that after the Dorman incident, the United Kingdom wants to move him, and probably will hold a large conference to discuss it.

"Mr. Li Zheng, please come inside, Mr. Edward is already waiting inside." The leading waiter said softly.

Li Zheng nodded and followed the waiter in white.

The view of Mid Level One is very good, and you can see the winding Xiangjiang River from the terrace on the second floor. Edward was sitting at the small round table on the second-floor terrace and saw Li Zheng approaching with a big smile on his face.

"Li, long time no see." He stepped forward and gave Li Zheng a light hug.

The two sat down at the white round table, and the waiter filled Li Zheng with water.

"This is a cookie that Jenny baked. It tastes very good." Jenny White, the wife of the Governor.

Li Zheng picked up the biscuit and took a bite. "It's really delicious."

The two talked about British food culture from their biscuits, from Xiangjiang to the Nasai River, and said that the tea cup was cold. After the waiter came and exchanged another cup, the Governor finally couldn't bear to enter the topic.

"Mr. Li Zheng is amazing. Pamine, carbapenem antibiotics, regenerating organs in vitro, and the most recent drug for Doc's disease. These piles are all shocking." The Governor said with a smile. .

"Mr. Edward passed the award. Drug development is just a routine job for a biopharmaceutical scholar. It's just that I am relatively young, so the noise caused is a bit louder." Li Zheng took a sip of his tea and laughed.

"Hey, you can't say that. Many biologists can't develop a drug in their entire life. What's more, Mr. Li Zheng has only been on the path of biopharmaceuticals in two years, and so many achievements have been produced in two years. , It is a rare high yield." Sir Edward changed his former kindness, his blue eyes were full of sharpness.

Li Zheng held the hand of the tea cup slightly hard. When he first released the molecular formula of "Pamisatin" at the Asian Biopharmaceutical Conference, he already thought that his affairs in the small fishing village would definitely be dug up. But I didn't expect that the first time the person mentioned this to myself would be the Governor Edward.

"We Chinese have an old saying, thick accumulation and thin hair. A dancer on the stage except himself, no one knows how much time he spent on the short few minutes on the stage." Li Zheng smiled and said. Edward Wharton looked at each other without a trace of avoidance.

Sir Edward chuckled. "You are such an amazing biologist. I read yesterday's London Journal, and it praised you for having a golden brain and said that your experience in Dorman is a great legend. Dorman’s The leaders of the government and the opposition have held peace talks in Doman City. You have changed this country full of war and disease."

Yes, after the press conference that day, the peace talks between the Doman government and the opposition officially started, announcing that the war in Doman for nearly 30 years is expected to end and the dawn of peace is coming.

Those discerning people in the political arena can understand at a glance that the emergence of Doc's disease drugs is not the main reason for peace.

In terms of the armed forces of the Doman government and the opposition, the Doman government has the advantage, but it is only the advantage. If the war between the two breaks out, even if the government forces can successfully eliminate the opposition forces, they will have to pay pains. The price.

The price may be that the armed forces do not exist, and the government completely loses its rule over Doman. This is unacceptable to the government, so neither of the two sides wants a full-scale war.

However, on these two sides, Mr. President has a mild personality and lacks decision-making, while Mr. Munch is too strong and domineering and refuses to bow his head at all. Before the drug conference, the two parties had no chance to sit down and talk.

Li Zheng can be regarded as coincident with his meeting.

But apart from politicians and military commentators, who would like to go into the details of the reasons why a small country has embarked on a peaceful path. A young biologist turned the tide and brought peace to a war-torn country.

What a legendary and educational story. Even the education departments of some African countries have expressed that they will write Li Zheng's deeds into textbooks, so as to educate the country on the greatness of the future generation of scientific power.

The name Li Zheng already has an influence or prestige that cannot be underestimated in Africa and the world.

"Turn the tide? Mr. Edward, you know, the power of science is great, but it is by no means sufficient to fill the gaps in human desire." Li Zheng said with a shrug.

Edward Wharton laughed. "I really think that if you didn't take the path of biopharmaceuticals, you would be an excellent politician."

Li Zheng was slightly startled, "I don't think this is compliment at all."

Edward Wharton was dumb. He blew the tea foam on the cup and looked at Li Zheng with a smile, "How does Mr. Li Zheng feel about Xiangjiang?"

Li Zheng knew that the highlight was coming.

"Free, open, and tolerant." Li Zheng said after a slight meal and continued, "The most important thing is that everyone is in the same line. My living habits and cultural background make me very kind. Do you want me to continue?" He looked at the Governor with a smile.

A helpless look appeared on Edward's face. "I really can't believe that you are a biologist who is immersed in science. Talking to you feels like talking to my colleagues."

"Although you said so, I still have to ask, this is a political task." Edward shrugged helplessly, then his face became serious.

"Mr. Li Zheng, I, Edward Wharton, on behalf of the British government and the Hong Kong government officially invite you to join the Hong Kong household registration. We will provide you with benefits and subsidies based on the highest talent introduction standards. The United Kingdom and the Hong Kong government will also fully support your research. Maybe you will have other conditions, we can all discuss."

Li Zheng's expression also became serious.

"I am very honored to receive an invitation from the British government, but I am very sorry. I was born in China and I was also educated in China. Everything I have was given by China, and everything I have must be returned to China."

There was a brief silence between the two.

Soon, a smile appeared on Edward's face again, of course, with a little helplessness on his smile.

"I knew it was useless work. I understand you, you love China, just like I love Great Britain."

"It's the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland."

"Well, you are right. Northern Ireland is an inseparable part of the British Empire." Edward Nounou said, after thinking about it, "You can rest assured that your life and research in Xiangjiang will not be affected by our conversation today. Any changes. As you said, whether it is Britain or Hong Kong, they are free, open, and very tolerant."

When Li Zheng heard the words, the smile on his face couldn't help being more real, "Thank you very much." He really can't live without Xiangjiang recently, and Li Zheng's laboratory has just gotten on track.

In vitro regeneration technology and further research on Dok’s disease antibodies need to be carried out in Li Zheng’s laboratory.

"Oh, you have forgotten the time when we are talking. It is now five o'clock. I sincerely invite you to stay for a meal in my own name. You are a friend of my father-in-law. If you let Jenny know, I will invite you. You come and see you away at this time. I will probably sleep in the study today." Sir Edward blinked mischievously.

Li Zheng laughed blankly, "Of course, it's my honor."

The two of them walked to the Governor's Mansion restaurant. When they reached the door of the restaurant, Edward patted his head, "Forgot to say, I also invited a few guests for dinner today, but I think you should know Mr. Li Zheng. "

With that, the waiter in front had already opened the door.

There were already many people sitting on the long table in the restaurant, and Li Zheng saw many familiar faces among these people. Media magnate Shao Qihua, Mr. and Mrs. Shen of Xiangjiang Daily, and other media predators, and media figures who master the public opinion of Xiangjiang were almost all present.

Li Zheng's heart shuddered slightly, yes, since Huaying didn't want to break out a war, then in this competition, the power of public opinion cannot be underestimated.

"Cracking" the sound of the ceramic bowl falling to pieces.

Everyone looked at it, and a young woman next to the Shen couple accidentally knocked over the dishes.

Shen Hongji hurriedly helped his wife clean up. Mr. Shen's expression was a bit serious. Yang Wanru's face was already sinking, but in front of a group of peers, it was not easy to vent, as long as she forced a smile, "Hongji, you take care of it. Qiuhua, don't just look at yourself."

Standing at the door, Li Zheng's pupils shrank for a moment. Zhao Qiuhua is now more mature and beautiful than when he was a student. Li Zheng only saw her in the photo a few times, and naturally he didn't recognize her at a glance.

Until Yang Wanru spoke, he couldn't help smiling secretly. After seeing his grandpa, his mother came out again. He suddenly felt that he should stay in Africa for a while.

"Mr. Li Zheng? Mr. Li Zheng?" Edward asked Li Zheng in confusion.

Li Zheng immediately recovered his mind. He touched his nose and smiled: "I have been in Africa for a long time. I just came back to see so many people, and I am not used to it."

Edward laughed, and he personally led Li Zheng to sit down next to him, and then walked to the main seat.

"I believe everyone who is a media person is familiar with our Mr. Li Zheng. A genius biologist, with a golden brain of world wealth, and a legend who led Doman to peace." He introduced to everyone aloud, this introduction. The words really made Li Zheng ashamed.

Especially on this occasion, there is a special person.

Li Zheng tried to ignore the existence of Zhao Qiuhua, stood up and raised his glass, "Mr. Edward is exaggerated, the younger generation respects you." As he said, he poured the red wine in one mouthful.

The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became active.

Shao Qihua was sitting next to Li Zheng. He looked at Li Zheng and Zhao Qiuhua who was sitting next to Shen Hongji. He suddenly felt that the meal was very interesting.

The author has something to say: Shao Qihua: I think this meal is very interesting.

Li Zheng: Haha:) I remember you
