The conference room fell into silence.
Zhou Qi's voice was not loud, just enough for people to hear him clearly.
His tone was not impassioned or even decisive, he was just talking about a small matter like eating and drinking water.
But the meaning contained in such plain words makes people's hearts tremble.
Even a little psychedelic.
All, all contributed? ?
How much wealth would that be? ?
Just a small "glass of water" can cure cancer that is incurable by modern science. If there is something more powerful, wouldn't the entire country be invincible?
For a moment, everyone was excited.
The look he looked at Zhou Qi had a hint of recognition and admiration.
And on the other side,
Director Liu was also a little stunned.
Because, before he could say many of the things he originally planned to say, Zhou Qi had already stated the ultimate goal he wanted him to say for this meeting.
So much so that he could only look at Zhou Qi intently now, not knowing what to say.
This, this guy, is too direct, right?
Not even talking about the price?
However, at this moment,
"However," Zhou Qi suddenly changed his tone.
In an instant, the atmosphere of the entire conference room changed.
Everyone, including Director Liu, was shocked.
They realized,
Here we go again.
Everyone present is an adult, and they all understand one thing:
The most basic principle for people to get along with each other is the interaction of interests, whether it is material or spiritual.
Those great people who make selfless sacrifices may have simple material needs, but what they gain is a sense of national mission and honor, or a sense of satisfaction in exploring the unknown and the truth.
Simply put, they realize their self-worth.
And what about the boy in front of me?
In the hearts of everyone present, this boy is no longer an ordinary boy. Under that young appearance, he has an old heart!
He is a person who has experienced countless "doomsdays"!
So, what does he want?
no one knows.
All they knew was that what the boy said next might cause an uproar!
for a time,
Zhou Qi's two words successfully raised everyone's hearts. They all stared at the young boy's mouth intentionally or unintentionally, wanting to see what he could say.
However.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, after Zhou Qi uttered two words, he fell into deep thought again, as if he was thinking about it and didn't know how to express it.
This made everyone present feel more and more nervous and the atmosphere became more and more depressing.
Finally, Director Liu broke the deadlock with a serious expression and asked in a solemn voice:
"But what? Comrade Zhou Qi, feel free to ask for anything. Since you are willing to dedicate so many important things to the country, the country will also try its best to meet all your requirements."
After hearing this, Zhou Qi finally nodded slowly.
He looked more serious and said:
"Okay... I do have a request, and I only have one request."
Everyone looked serious, some raised their chins, and some leaned forward.
Director Liu also said with a serious face: "You say it."
At this time, everyone is ready. No matter what request Zhou Qi makes, he must remain calm and prepared.
So, Zhou Qi said lightly:
"I want to get back to a normal life."
Director Liu:?
other people:? ?
A group of people asked directly.
Normal life?
Did you hear it wrong?
I can't understand it...
A middle-aged woman who should be a director asked with a trembling voice: "Zhou Qi...Classmate, what do you mean by normal life..."
Zhou Qi nodded: "That's the literal meaning. I want to go back to school, study, go to school, graduate, work...etc., just to experience the life that an ordinary person should have."
Everyone looked at each other with trembling eyes and slow movements.
It can be seen from the expressions on their faces that they heard it correctly...
But, isn’t this a bit too childish?
At this time, Zhou Qi cleared his throat again and added: "To be specific, it is...
I signed a ten-year contract with the country...well, tentatively, it will be ten years.
Within these ten years, I will provide the country with advanced technologies in various fields in a reasonable manner. A more detailed contract will be drawn up for this specific content at that time.
And in these ten years, I need the state to seal, keep my information confidential, and not disclose it to the public, so that I can integrate into the world of normal people and experience ordinary life..."
"..."
"..."
Now I understand a little bit.
The conference room fell into a strange atmosphere. The policemen sometimes looked at Zhou Qi and sometimes looked at each other.
After Director Liu made eye contact with several leading cadres for a few seconds, he replied hesitantly: "Zhou Qi, we don't quite understand your request, but I will report it truthfully to my superiors... But before that, I can I can’t ask, why?”
"No reason." Zhou Qi smiled and shook his head, "Director Liu, this is just a small request from a child who has obtained an 'extraordinary power'. It has no deep meaning or purpose. I just want to return to a normal life. Go, quietly enjoy the normal world without the end of the world, and by the way, do something I like... okay?"
"..." Director Liu frowned and looked at him.
Of course it's not impossible.
Zhou Qiti’s request is very simple and clear.
It can even be said that he is very sensible, too sensible.
Moreover, it is also easy to understand.
If Zhou Qi is compared to an "old man" who has really experienced a lot, then what he really wants now may be a plain and stable life.
This is very logical.
but……
The more this happened, the more Director Liu felt that something was wrong.
At least... want something?
He took a breath and spoke slowly: "Comrade Zhou Qi, I can understand your request, and I probably know what you want, but let me give you a reminder first... You are in our, the government, and the country's role." In my eyes, you are already a high-risk person, and even if the country allows you to return to society, there will be no restrictions at all."
Zhou Qi smiled: "Of course, there are no rules. Since I choose this way, I will naturally accept the side effects of my choice... Well, I will always live peacefully under the state's supervision, but as a To compensate, the state will provide me with some privileges, that should be fine, right? It doesn’t need to be much, as long as I and my family, friends, etc. are not harmed, and on the premise of ensuring a normal life, we will not be in unnecessary trouble and As long as the obstacles affect it..."
"..."
The whole place fell silent.
Everyone understood what Zhou Qi meant.
However, when the problem reaches this level, they can no longer say anything. They can only look at their noses and mouths, and their mouths and hearts.
Only Director Liu nodded slowly and heavily.
"I will truthfully submit your request to my superiors..."
"Yes." Zhou Qi smiled and nodded: "Then we can talk now about how to supervise me and how I should provide technology."
