Chapter 126 He couldn't withstand the test.

Chapter 127 He couldn't withstand the test.

Liu Zichuan never expected that he would suddenly become the dish of salted fish and dried vegetables served on the table, and that he would have to impersonate the target of his scheme.

How can this be!

Absolutely not!

No one knew better than him what was hidden downstairs at the Sihai Hotel.

"Master Yu, you're joking. I know absolutely nothing about science fiction, nor do I understand poetry. Besides, with my shabby appearance, how could I possibly have the slightest bit of the air of a great writer? No, no, Master Yu, please spare me. In any case, I have no right to impersonate you—"

Yu Zhen completely ignored Liu Zichuan, and instead turned to look at Director Qin and the others. He smiled and said, "See? This is what it feels like to be constantly remembered."

Director Qin smiled too, knowing perfectly well what Yu Zhen meant.

The delegation had barely arrived in Hong Kong and checked into the Four Seas Hotel when the news leaked out immediately.

If there were no traitors within the organization...

Then all those special agents in the State Administration of Foreign Affairs might as well go buy tofu and bang their heads against it, and just die as soon as possible.

However, he never expected that Liu Zichuan would be an inside traitor.

"Researcher Liu, what's going on?!"

Qin Zhongkai said with a serious expression, "I really can't understand why the man surnamed Liu would do this."

It should be noted that every member of the delegation has undergone rigorous screening and strict political vetting procedures.

I'm worried about something happening to the members!

Unfortunately, what he feared most came to pass. He knew better than anyone else what kind of family background the man surnamed Liu had, because he was the one who ultimately passed the review.

Even if it can't be said to be the most politically correct.

The Liu family had also been tested and tempered by blood and fire during the war years.

"Director Qin, what? Why? I didn't understand what you meant. I really know my place. I know I shouldn't impersonate Writer Yu. If I went downstairs under someone else's name and caused trouble, I really can't bear that responsibility—"

Liu Zichuan looked extremely aggrieved, as if he had truly been misunderstood for his good intentions.

Zhang Fushi, standing nearby, said coldly, "So you actually know that going downstairs will cause trouble?"

"I just don't know what kind of disaster might occur. Could you give me a heads-up, Researcher Liu?!"

Director Qin spoke again, still smiling.

The only person who remained silent at the scene was Comrade Yuan.

Comrade Yuan suddenly said, "Perhaps we could invite the representative upstairs for a meeting."

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, inviting representatives from the crowd gathered downstairs to come upstairs would be the best idea." Liu Zichuan immediately echoed excitedly, casting a grateful glance at Comrade Yuan.

"That's true, but we can't really tell who should be invited upstairs!" Zhang Fushi expressed his doubts.

"Researcher Liu, do you have a way to draft a list of people to visit upstairs?" Qin Zhongkai threw the difficult question to Liu Zichuan, actually taking the opportunity to further probe.

Liu Zichuan looked intently at Yu Zhen, "Writer Yu is the object of the masses' pursuit, so let Writer Yu give the choice—"

Yu Zhen: "Don't underestimate yourself, Lao Liu. I have high hopes for you. If you don't handle this well, I will suggest that you go home and leave the delegation list."

Yu Zhen's words gave everyone a jolt.

Director Qin reacted most keenly and vigilantly, as he was all too aware of Yu Zhen's ability to judge people, events, and predict the future.

Moreover, Yu Zhen rarely expresses hostility directly to anyone.

The last time this kid acted like this.

That was last time.

Yan Shijian, Vice Dean of the School of Computer Science at Tsinghua and Peking Universities, and his nephew Wei Yuan.

This further fueled the controversy surrounding the integrity of Tsinghua and Peking Universities. The entire university community in Beijing was ultimately swept up in the storm.

If it weren't for the constraints mentioned above...

No one knows how things will ultimately end.

Anyway, it won't be easily forgotten.

"Researcher Liu, since Writer Yu has already stated his position, you should listen carefully to what he has to say. You have ten minutes to prepare. After ten minutes, you can either go downstairs and communicate with the people downstairs as Writer Yu, or you can get a list. Okay, go ahead and get busy!"

Liu Zichuan was asked to leave the room.

After watching Liu Zichuan leave and closing the door behind him, Qin Zhongkai looked at Yu Zhen and asked, "Is there something wrong with this guy surnamed Liu?"

This statement is an attempt to ascertain the nature and severity of the problem.

In short, the art of language.

Some people and some things, at crucial moments, can only be expressed in this way, in a way that can only be understood but not explained.

"Wang Mang was humble before he usurped the throne, hehe."

Everyone was deeply shaken.

This statement is so serious, it's practically the height of the storm.

They also know this historical anecdote about Wang Mang, who was a historical figure of what caliber.

The question is, could Liu Zichuan's future abilities really grow to the level of Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han dynasty?

Seeing everyone's reaction, Yu Zhen knew they had misunderstood.

The natural growth of someone surnamed Liu is not as high as Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han dynasty. To describe him in this way is to overstate his importance. He is merely a sheepdog destined to be raised by overseas technological capital.

Of course, this is only an analogy.

In another timeline, within the domestic technology sector, the potential for future disruption is indeed comparable to Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han dynasty, almost utterly jeopardizing the development of China's high-tech and semiconductor computer industries.

However, it is too early to say such things at the moment.

Besides, with this kind of scum, if you just slap the one surnamed Liu in front of you and kill him, there will naturally be other people surnamed Liu, Liu, or Liu. Replacing him with someone like this, who is more secretive, will only complicate things further due to the unpredictability of the future.

"Everyone, don't be so tense. I was just using an analogy. You can know a person's face but not their heart. Some people are one way in China, but become completely different once they leave the country. What happened today clearly represents another voice, another kind of willpower—"

Qin Zhongkai resisted the urge to ask directly.

This kid definitely foresaw something about Liu Zichuan.

Alright, alright, you're so young yet so patient and composed. We can't let you outdo us. Let's play the long game and catch the big fish. What else might be naturally drawn out from this line with the surname Liu in the future? We'll see.

"Since you can't solve the problem, you're going to target the person who raised it, right?"

As Liu Zichuan stepped out of the guest room, he sneered inwardly.

What utter nonsense! You all act so high and mighty. Now that you're abroad, do you still think you can do whatever you want with those old tricks back home?!

Hehe, hehehe————

Leaving the country and arriving in a world where capitalists monopolize everything, the rules of the game have changed.

You will all soon find out what it means to live in a world without seeing swords.

He gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

Want to test the waters, huh?

Then let's test the waters!
