after an hour.
Chen Ye took Mr. Wu's special car, and the police car opened the way. The journey was smooth and he arrived outside the red wall compound.
Although it was Mr. Wu's special car and Secretary Zhou was also in the car, the guard went through the routine and checked carefully to confirm that there were no problems before letting him pass.
After Mr. Wu's special car entered the red-walled compound, it made many twists and turns, and finally came to a stop in front of an ancient building.
This ancient building is Mr. Wu’s office.
According to Secretary Zhou, Mr. Wu has been waiting for Chen Ye in the ancient building for a long time.
Chen Ye got out of the car and, led by Secretary Zhou, entered the ancient building and came to Mr. Wu's office.
In the office, Mr. Wu was chatting with Xiao Ziyu. When they heard the knock on the door, they both realized something.
"Come in."
Mr. Wu spoke.
Secretary Zhou pushed open the door and led Chen Ye into the conference room.
"Comrade Xiao Chen, you are finally here."
When Mr. Wu saw Chen Ye, he quickly stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with Chen Ye. The smile on his face was particularly bright.
Because, after Chen Ye provided a large model of future artificial intelligence, he helped Xia Guo solve the problem of a stuck lithography machine, making outstanding contributions to Xia Guo's scientific and technological work, and allowing Xia Guo to take a step forward in its strategy of becoming a technological power. The most solid step!
At the same time, Xiao Ziyu, who had always been cold and serious, looked at Chen Ye with a smile on his face, and his smile was full of joy.
At this moment, she didn't know whether she was happy because Chen Ye helped her realize her wish, or because she was happy to see Chen Ye, or both.
Secretary Zhou took the initiative to make a cup of tea for Chen Ye, and then added water to Mr. Wu and Xiao Ziyu's teacups.
After doing all this, he retreated.
"Comrade Xiao Chen, you were not injured in Europa, were you?"
Mr. Wu spoke again and asked with concern on his face.
He didn't know that King Chen Ye was Chen Ye's vest, but he knew that Chen Ye was assassinated by a killer, and that the North American S.H.I.E.L.D. and Europa Martial Arts Institute had captured Chen Ye.
"Mr. Wu, I'm fine."
Chen Ye shook his head, and then asked: "Has the equipment been transported back to Xia Country safely and smoothly?"
"It's good that you're fine. The lithography machine has not been shipped back to Xia Kingdom yet. To be on the safe side, we transport it via cargo ship. It will take some time for the cargo ship to arrive at Xia Kingdom's port." Mr. Wu said.
"Um."
Chen Ye agrees with this approach.
After all, there are very few air cargos, and the lithography machine will be found once inspected.
And giant freighters can transport two to three million tons of cargo. Even if the North American S.H.I.E.L.D. finds clues and intercepts the freighter midway, trying to find two photolithography machines among the cargo is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
"Comrade Xiao Chen, you have made two major contributions to the scientific and technological field of Xia State. Today, the main scientific and technological workers of Xia State are here. They are waiting for you in the conference room. Shall we go there together?"
After chatting with Chen Ye for a while, Mr. Wu proposed.
"Mr. Wu, is it not necessary?"
Chen Ye was slightly startled.
Secretary Zhou only told him that Mr. Wu wanted to meet and entertain him, but did not tell him that other scientific and technological workers also wanted to meet him.
"Comrade Xiao Chen, you don't know that the phone calls in my office have been ringing off the hook in the past two days. Everyone is asking when you will come back. They said that no matter what, they must see you and thank you in person. Everything you have done for the development of science and technology in Xia State!"
Mr. Wu said with a wry smile.
"Chen Ye, this is everyone's wish. Go ahead and I'll accompany you."
Xiao Ziyu also smiled and spoke.
"All right."
Chen Ye nodded, and then followed Mr. Wu, accompanied by Xiao Ziyu, out of the office and came to a conference room in an ancient building.
Wow! !
In the conference room, the important scientific and technological workers of Xia State were chatting and laughing. When they saw Mr. Wu entering the door with Chen Ye, they all stood up.
Among them are Taishan Beidou in the scientific field, and the main leaders of science and technology-related departments and units. The oldest one is over eighty years old.
However--
At this moment, they stood up in unison and turned their attention to Chen Ye.
They were using this method to welcome Chen Ye's arrival.
"Let us welcome our heroes on their triumphant return with warm applause!"
Immediately, the quiet conference room was broken, and Taishan Beidou Zhou, the leader in Xia Guo's science field, made a suggestion.
"Pa bang bang..."
In an instant.
Warm applause sounded like a tide.
Everyone, including Mr. Wu, applauded enthusiastically, and the applause was so loud that it seemed like it was about to knock off the roof of the conference room.
Xiao Ziyu was no exception. When she was applauding, she looked at Chen Ye.
At the same time, Chen Ye bowed slightly to express his gratitude, then waved his hand and said:
"Mr. Wu, experts, you're welcome."
"Xiaoye, you may not know what the two things you have done for Xia Guo's science and technology work mean, but everyone here has a clear mind. Because of you, Xia Guo will solve the long-standing problem of technology stuck. , will also lead global development in the field of artificial intelligence in the future! All of us, including me, are very grateful to you!"
Mr. Zhou said emotionally, then took the lead and bowed deeply to Chen Ye.
Seeing this scene, other scientific and technological workers also bowed to Chen Ye.
They are using this method to express their gratitude and respect to Chen Ye!
"Mr. Zhou, experts and teachers, you really don't have to do this!"
Chen Ye smiled bitterly and waved his hand.
Xiao Ziyu looked at Chen Ye with a smile, seeming to enjoy this moment.
Because, in her opinion, this honor is something that those powerful children cannot have in their lifetime!
"Wu XX, in view of Chen Ye's contribution to our country's scientific and technological work, I suggest that Chen Ye apply for the Medal of the Republic."
Immediately, Mr. Zhou turned his attention to Mr. Wu and suggested.
In front of everyone, he called Mr. Wu his title, which not only showed respect for Mr. Wu, but also showed that his proposal was serious and well-thought-out, not impulsive.
"Wu XX, we have discussed this matter just now. This is the common proposal and wish of all of us!"
At this moment, another great figure in the scientific field, Beidou, spoke up.
At the same time, other scientific and technological workers nodded in agreement.
"Mr. Wu, Mr. Zhou, and all experts, everything I have done is to fulfill my promise to Xiao Ziyu. It is Xiao Ziyu who truly desires and supports the development of Xia State's science and technology. If a medal must be awarded, I suggest awarding it to Xiao Ziyu!"
Immediately, without waiting for Mr. Wu to express his position, Chen Ye spoke.
"Well……"
Hearing Chen Ye's words in shock, both the scientific and technological workers and Mr. Wu were all stunned.
The Medal of the Republic is the highest honor of the Xia State. Only those who have made great and outstanding contributions to the Xia State are eligible to apply.
However, facing such a supreme honor, Chen Ye not only acted calmly, but also wanted to give it to Xiao Ziyu...
How could this not shock them? ! ?
Xiao Ziyu was also shocked. At the same time, there were ripples in her heart, and her eyes looking at Chen Ye also shone with a strange light! !
"Your proposal is very good. I personally agree and support it. I will speak about this proposal on behalf of everyone at the relevant meeting, and then the meeting will study and decide."
Mr. Wu smiled and spoke. He did not adopt Chen Ye's suggestion - how could the Medal of the Republic be transferred so easily? ?
He didn't agree directly. It was not in compliance with the procedures and he didn't have the power.
Hearing Mr. Wu's words again, Chen Ye wanted to say something else, but Xiao Ziyu shook his head in confusion to stop him.
Then, Chen Ye, Mr. Wu, and Xiao Ziyu took their seats, chatted with Mr. Zhou and others for a while, and then went to the public dinner together.
The dinner was also held in the red-walled courtyard, a restaurant specially used for receptions, standard for state banquets.
At nine o'clock, the dinner ended.
"Are you OK?"
Xiao Ziyu asked with concern as she accompanied Chen Ye out of the restaurant.
During the dinner, everyone toasted to Chen Ye, and more than once, Chen Ye drank several kilograms of liquor.
"It's okay, I forced the alcohol out of my body."
Chen Ye smiled and shook his head.
"Yes, you are a three-star war god, how can you be afraid of this kind of wine?"
Xiao Ziyu smiled bitterly, secretly scolding himself for being confused, and then asked with concern:
"I heard about what happened to you at the airport. If you exposed Lu Renjia's vest, will it affect your Chen Yewang's vest?"
"Won't."
Chen Ye was not surprised that Xiao Ziyu guessed his vest, nor did he deny it. Instead, he shook his head slightly and said:
"When I appeared as Lu Renjia, I simply changed my appearance, but when I appeared as King Chen Ye's vest, my height, body shape, appearance, and temperament all changed, and I wore a mask. If I did this, it would be easier to confuse me. The audio and visual makes it impossible to connect me with Chen Yewang.
More importantly, no one in this world would believe that a 22-year-old young man could be a three-star war god! "
"Am I not human?"
Xiao Ziyu gave Chen Ye a hygienic eye.
"——"
Chen Ye was speechless.
Except for the Sky Burial Old Man and the second-in-command Huangfu Wangqing who knew his background, Xiao Ziyu was the first person to guess his vest, and he was convinced of it.
"Chen Ye, thank you."
Just when Chen Ye was stunned, Xiao Ziyu suddenly stopped.
The evening breeze blew.
It blew up her long flowing hair.
Her long hair covered her face, but could not cover her eyes.
Under the sky.
She stared affectionately at the young man who was close at hand, and her heart was filled with emotion and excitement!
