Chapter 396 Everyone wants to be that pig on the wind

A few days later, when Williams came to Wei Kang's office again.

He was attracted by the white plastic card on the table at first sight.

"My God! This is my dream green card!"

Williams stepped forward, grabbed the small card, stared at the words "Foreign Permanent Resident ID Card" on it, read it over and over again several times, and saw his name and photo again, and then his heart fell. down.

He was immediately overwhelmed with excitement: "Boss, you are really amazing. Sure enough, there is nothing you can't do. You solved the biggest crisis in my life so quickly. From now on, I will definitely do my best in Sanqing..."

Wei Kang chuckled: "Don't get too excited, the other party also has conditions, requiring you to keep your previous work in Eagle Country secret and not to disclose any confidential information, otherwise they will reserve the right to investigate, especially in front of the public. It is even more forbidden to mention this matter and reveal the slightest relevant content.”

"Both sides will maintain a tacit understanding and treat you as a normal scientist with naturalization."

"However, I guess that after the news of your joining the Chinese nationality spreads, you will definitely have a bad reputation in Eagle Country, which is equivalent to cutting yourself off from overseas academic circles. You must be mentally prepared for this."

"The domestic media will also hype you up and create a banner that attracts talents from all over the world."

Speaking of this, Wei Kang narrowed his eyes: "Believe me, you will definitely be very comfortable staying in Sanqing."

"Applying for Chinese nationality is definitely the most correct thing you have done in your life."

Williams was overjoyed instantly, and bowed to him.

"Thank you, boss. It is the greatest luck in my life to meet such a wise boss as you."

"Don't worry, I used to be a pawn in Yingguo, useless at all. Only when I come to Sanqing can I shine. I will spare no effort to do this job well."

Wei Kang nodded with satisfaction: "There will be a press conference in the afternoon to introduce you to the media. You should prepare."

Williams returned to the office excitedly and couldn't help pumping his fists into the air.

Just then, the phone rang suddenly.

He looked at the incoming call, and found that it was from Yingguo, and it was from someone he didn't expect.

Professor Ferguson, his doctoral supervisor at Cornell.

After hesitating for a while, he connected the phone and got up to walk to the stairwell at the same time.

"Hi, dear professor, long time no see."

Professor Ferguson's hearty voice sounded: "Dear William, it's been a long time since I saw you, and you seldom contact me by email, and you didn't tell me that you made such a big achievement. I still heard about you from my colleagues. latest news."

Williams was a little ashamed: "I'm sorry, but the news came too suddenly to me, so..."

Professor Ferguson interrupted him with a smile: "I understand, you must be very busy at work, how are you? Do you have any plans after winning the Peace Prize?"

"I haven't thought too far ahead yet, I will probably continue to do research in Sanqing." Williams pondered.

Professor Ferguson said in surprise: "Are you planning to stay in Sanqing for the rest of your life? This is not a good thing for you."

"Although I know you have done a good job in Sanqing, Eagle Country is your real destination. As long as you are willing to come back, no matter money or honor, it is a trivial matter."

"By the way, I have a new antiviral drug project in cooperation with Gilead. Are you interested? With your ability, you will definitely be able to feel like a fish in water when you come back."

William immediately realized that the academic and medical circles in the Eagle Country probably didn't know that he was going to become a Chinese citizen, and they were still trying their best to invite him back, but now that he has made up his mind, he will definitely not waver.

So he shook his head and resolutely rejected the other party: "Professor, my career is in Huaxia, and there have been new developments recently. I like the atmosphere of Sanqing, and I won't go back again."

Professor Ferguson still didn't give up: "It's okay, you just made achievements now, so naturally you won't want to come back. This is understandable, but I believe that in a few years, you will change your mind, and the door here will always be open for you."

Williams thought about it, and in order to make the professor completely give up, he threw out a bomb.

"Professor, in fact, I have already submitted an application for becoming a Chinese citizen, and I will soon become a Chinese. My motherland will be China in the future, and I will not return to the Eagle Country."

"What? You!" Professor Ferguson was stunned and couldn't believe his ears: "Aren't you joking?"

"Of course not, I already got the Huaxia green card today." Williams said firmly.

"Fack! Do you know what you're doing? Are you cutting yourself off from academia?"

Professor Ferguson was instantly furious, and furiously said: "You really let me down by doing this, don't call me my student in the future."

With a "click", I hung up the phone.

"It's as if I have developed something in Eagle Country's academic circles before. Hehe."

Williams shrugged and smiled nonchalantly.

He had already expected the teacher's reaction, and he didn't feel too sad.

He returned to his seat leisurely, and not long after, he found that there were many emails in his private mailbox.

All the classmates who were acquainted with him before sent letters to ask him why, expressing that they did not understand his behavior very much, and each of them expressed strong dissatisfaction and regret.

Williams smiled lightly, but did not reply.

When the press conference in the afternoon is over and the news spreads overseas, these people will naturally know what he really thinks.

Anyway, he is already a native of Huaxia, as long as he expresses his attitude, whether these people can understand or not has nothing to do with him.

In the afternoon, Wei Kang took Williams to the press conference.

The audience was full of major media who had heard the news and carried long guns and short cannons.

Whether it is the domestic official media, the radio stations in Kunming City and Haishi City, or foreign media giants such as Eagle Associates and Reuters.

All in place, waiting to interview the newest Nobel Peace Prize laureate.

Williams refused to answer any calls from strangers these days, so they squatted in Sanqing Garden for a few days but failed to find a suitable opportunity. Naturally, they were very excited to be able to conduct an interview publicly this time, and prepared a lot of questions one by one.

Wei Kang coughed lightly, and said slowly: "Hi everyone, let me introduce. The person sitting next to me is Williams. He is now the head of the Sanqing Microbiology Laboratory. In the research and development of HIV gene medicines, he has done a lot of research and development. The shaping of the recombinant gene virus played a decisive role and won the Nobel Peace Prize."

"Okay, let him speak next."

It was the first time for Williams to hold a press conference. He has always stayed in the laboratory and rarely experienced such a big scene, so he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

However, he quickly mediated and spoke with a forced calm.

"Hi, everyone, you can call me Dawei, it will be more friendly."

"First of all, I would like to thank Sanqing for providing such a powerful platform to enable me to achieve my current achievements. As for the Peace Prize, I was really surprised and pleasantly surprised, so I would like to express my deep gratitude here."

"Next, I will continue my research on microorganisms in Sanqing. Recently, I have found a bacterium that can swallow a variety of plastics. I am developing a super enzyme that can degrade plastics. The progress is very smooth. I believe we will soon There are new achievements and large-scale industrial production, so as to completely solve the global white pollution problem."

"The current situation is almost like this. If you have any questions, you can ask them boldly."

The media in the audience were shocked instantly.

This Williams is really amazing. He just won the Peace Prize, and immediately made new discoveries, and the results will soon be produced.

What a rare talent in microbiology.

The Eagle Associated Press and the Reuters media were even more pleasantly surprised. It is great that such an awesome talent is actually from the Eagle Country.

If the technology can be brought back to Eagle Country, it will definitely bring huge economic benefits.

They were so excited that they raised their hands and asked one question after another.

"Hi Dawei, may I ask if you have considered returning to the Eagle Country for development? A talent like you, even in the Eagle Country, is very good, and you will definitely be able to better display your talent." The reporter from the Eagle Association couldn't wait. ask a question.

"May I ask how you developed the genetically recombined virus? Can you explain the trick?" The Reuters reporter wanted to know some technical details.

"How is your working atmosphere in Sanqing? Are you satisfied with life in Huaxia?"

"Do you have any plans for long-term development in China?"

"May I ask if your family is in Eagle Country or China? Have you considered living and working in China?"

"The super enzyme that degrades plastic sounds very powerful. Can you tell me more about it?"

"Is Dawei your Chinese name? Is it difficult for you to learn Chinese?"

"Can you use chopsticks? Which Chinese food do you like the most?"

These are all Huaxia reporters, all of them have bright eyes, and they don't miss any hot spots.

Williams answered one by one with a smile, and waited until everyone had asked enough questions.

He finally put on a straight face and said very seriously: "Everyone, at the end of the press conference, I have an important news to tell you all."

As he spoke, he took out a white card from his pocket, waved it in front of the camera, and said.

"Today is the most important day in my life, even more important than the day I won the Nobel Prize."

"Because, I finally got the Huaxia green card I dreamed of, and in the near future, I will officially become a Chinese citizen and become a Chinese."

When Williams said these words, it was like a bomb went off instantly.

All the media reporters were stunned and stared at him dumbfounded, as if they couldn't believe what they heard.

The audience was silent, and a pin drop could be heard.

After a few seconds, everyone jumped up.

Countless people scrambled to ask questions loudly, completely forgetting to raise their hands.

The whole venue was noisy, noisier than the vegetable market.

"Quiet! If you have any questions, come one by one."

Wei Kang raised the microphone and said a word.

Soon, the media realized their gaffe and quickly returned to normal.

Raising their hands in unison, countless questions surged from their mouths, wishing they could burst out immediately.

"Can you tell me the reason? What made you so resolutely give up your Eagle Country citizenship and choose Huaxia?"

"Huaxia also has many foreign scientists working here. They go back and forth between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait without any delay in life and work. Why didn't you choose such a more moderate path?"

"Excuse me, is such a radical behavior a complete statement to Huaxia and Sanqing?"

Although the Chinese media were eager, they were more curious, wanting to explore his heart and find out why he did this.

The media outlets of the Eagle Associated Press and Reuters were much more irritable, and their attitudes were obviously a little unfriendly, and the questions they asked became sharper and sharper.

"Why? Is there something wrong with Eagle Country? Or is there something I'm sorry for you?"

"Are you sure you won't regret today's decision?"

"It's just a green card, which is enough to work in Sanqing. Why do you need to apply for citizenship? Don't you think it's a bit too much?"

"Aren't you betraying the motherland by doing this?"

"Are you worthy of the man who gave you the Peace Prize?"

"Although science has no borders, scientists have their own country. Have you forgotten this sentence?"

"How much did Sanqing give you?"

"You are a high-end talent trained by the Eagle Country. When you have achieved results, the first thing you think of is to join another country?"

There was even a reporter from the Eagle Country who was so excited that he was incoherent, almost spitting out his mouth.

"My God, do you know what you're doing? Is your patriotic education wasted? Fuck!"

"You have such a bad character that any scientist would be ashamed to be with you."

He jumped up angrily, took the turn of the microphone and threw it hard on the stage, almost hitting Williams on the head.

Two burly security guards ran over quickly, one by one on each side forked him out.

He left behind a sentence of Faq, which echoed constantly on the scene.

Williams smiled awkwardly, never expecting such a big response from Eagle Country media.

He raised the microphone in his hand and said loudly: "To Eagle Country, I can only say sorry."

"I made this decision after careful consideration. I won't do it now, and I won't regret it in the future."

"Please don't over-interpret, thank you very much."

Wei Kang timely opened his mouth to make a rescue for him.

"Everyone, now is a free society, technology and talents should flow freely, and scientists can choose where they like."

"William chose Sanqing. I am very proud. This means that Sanqing has a very strong attraction for overseas high-end talents."

"Welcome experts from all over the world to study and work in Sanqing, the door of Sanqing will always be open for you."

"Okay, today's press conference is over, thank you for your participation."

After saying this, he got up and left the venue, not giving the foreign media any chance to get mad.

"Damn it, this is the biggest humiliation I've ever had in my career."

"Fack, I must criticize this traitor and let him see the power of the media."

"Shit, this press conference is a joke."

The overseas media left cursing.

The domestic media were elated, shocked with a hint of pride.

After all, there are many Chinese people who have joined the nationality of the Eagle Kingdom, but people from the Eagle Kingdom who have joined the nationality of the Eagle Kingdom are rarer than giant pandas.

They geared up one by one, wrote the report in the car, and sent out the big news at the speed of light.

Sure enough, netizens were also shocked when they saw the news.

"Wow, big news, the peace prize winner has defected, awesome!"

"This is too hot, my grandma can't believe such outrageous news."

"It was fake at first glance, but when I saw it was posted by the official media, I couldn't help but believe it."

"This human lighthouse can't keep people anymore, it's a brain drain."

"Not only the manufacturing industry is outflowing, but high-end talents are also outflowing. Is this the lighthouse we know?"

"MAGA is probably a complete pill."

"Don't you all wonder why?"

"Needless to say, Sanqing is better than Eagle Country. Water flows downhill, and people go uphill."

Overseas netizens were also angry when they saw the news.

One by one yelled at Williams on the Internet, blaming him for forgetting his origin.

Suddenly, he became popular all over the Internet and became a hot word.

It's just that one side is red and the other side is black, the contrast is extremely sharp.

*****

Eagle Country, DC City, Hilton Hotel.

The annual meeting of the Eagle Country Society for Microbiology is being held here, which is the largest gathering of microbiologists in the world, with nearly 10,000 professionals from all over the world attending the meeting every year.

At this time, after a meeting is over.

Everyone came to the cafeteria, gathered in twos and threes, and chatted eagerly.

Among them, Williams Goodman is the most mentioned name.

All the participating scholars shook their heads and expressed disdain.

"Although this William is very talented, he has a very problematic character. Such a person puts his interests first. Even if he goes to Huaxia, it will be difficult for him to achieve anything in the future."

Jacob is a senior microbiologist. He adjusted his black-rimmed glasses, and while drinking coffee, he was talking to the people around him about the hottest recent news in the industry.

"Yes, if a scientist has no morals, he will become an evil mad scientist and become a mouse that everyone shouts and beats."

"You say, isn't this a bit strange?" an expert with messy hair and a plaid shirt asked curiously.

"Do you know this person? Never heard of him before, why did he suddenly become a dark horse in the microbial world?"

"Hehe, I know him. He is my alumnus. We worked in a laboratory before."

Jacob said disdainfully: "He was mediocre before, and he achieved success only by hugging Sanqing's thighs. It is just a coincidence that such a person has achievements. He probably got shit luck, and his achievements end here. That's it."

"That's right, there is a saying that a pig can fly if it stands on the air vent. He is the pig standing on the air vent. He was sent to the sky by Sanqing, and he doesn't know who he is. How can a person achieve such great achievements?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, a voice came in weakly.

"Well, I watched the video of the press conference. He seems to have made a new discovery. It is a super enzyme that can swallow a variety of plastics. It is said that it will be industrialized and mass-produced soon, and it can solve the problem of causing great harm to the environment. Plastic pollution."

Everyone fell silent immediately.

Jacob's face was terribly gloomy, and he gave the man who spoke a hard look.

The man seemed to know that he had said something wrong, so he kept silent.

After a while, someone changed the subject and continued to discuss other news.

Everyone had a tacit understanding, and the name Williams was never mentioned again.

This name seems to have become a taboo word that cannot be said clearly.

After a day of meetings, Jacob retreated to his hotel room.

Although it was late at night, he didn't feel sleepy, and kept walking back and forth by the bed, frowning.

After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, sat down in front of the computer, quietly opened Sanqing's official website, and browsed the recruitment information of various laboratories.

Soon, he secretly sent out the edited resume.

Seeing the message "The email was sent successfully", Jacob was inexplicably nervous.

But more is excitement and anticipation.

He crossed himself on his chest, and there was only one sentence in his mind.

"Damn it, I really want to be that pig on the wind."

Today there are 5300, but the system shows 4200, I usually have a few more words than the system, which is regarded as compensation for everyone. terribly sorry.
