After hearing Associate Hospital Director Zhang's words, even Department Head Qi could not help but fall silent for a moment.
As the leader in charge of scientific research, he was also aware of the problems in China's scientific research.
There were many times when he felt a deep sense of powerlessness!
The lack of succession was a very realistic problem in the field of scientific research in China.
Therefore, although he did not agree with Vice Principal Zhang's approach, he still recognized his initial intentions. At the very least, his starting point was good.
"However, you shouldn't have bought the trending searches to hype up the popularity of the robot competition. It's too obvious."
Minister Qi couldn't help but complain.
This matter was done too crudely. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that money had been spent. It would be strange if the netizens did not collectively 'crusade' against it!
"Little Zhang, give me the phone and let me talk to Xiao Qi.”
Elder Qi, who was leaning on a walking stick and had difficulty walking, hurriedly said.
The moment he spoke, Associate Hospital Director Zhang was so frightened that he quickly handed the phone to him without any hesitation.
"Little Qi!"
"Hey, Elder Qi, go ahead!"
Minister Qi's expression changed several times. He slowed down his speech and spoke very sincerely. There was also a hint of respect and caution in his tone.
He knew that Elder Qi was famous in the First Elder's office. Last year, he was even received by the leader and awarded a medal.
This was a person who had gone through all kinds of ups and downs and had dedicated his entire life to the new dynasty. Just this alone made him admire him to the core.
" Xiao Qi," Elder Qi paused and organized his words."The success or failure of a country's scientific research depends on the younger generation.
The days of us half-buried people shining for the country are actually numbered.
In the 1980s and 1990s, there was a popular saying that 'those who research atomic bombs are not as good as those who sell tea eggs'!
Many of our important research workers have gone into the sea, and various projects have failed, seriously dragging down the development of our country's science and technology.
He had just recovered his vitality these few years, and now, he had reached a new juncture.
The younger generation were all chasing after stars, hoping to become big stars, idols, top celebrities, singers, and internet celebrities. However, very few people were willing to become scientists.
From this, it could be seen that the scientific atmosphere in our country was gradually declining.
Being a scientist often meant heavy scientific research tasks and endless research and discussion work. Pain and loneliness were always tormenting the minds of scientific researchers.
They were attacking cities in the field of science all the time, and all of this might never be known by others.
It's not impossible to chase after stars, but the younger generation should know what kind of stars are worth chasing."
Towards the end of his sentence, the 80-year-old man's words carried a hint of eagerness. His eyes were bright as if he could see a red sun rising from the sea level, bringing with it endless vitality.
"Elder Qi, don't worry. I'm not calling Old Zhang to denounce him.”"I'll definitely convey your hopes for the younger generation to you," explained Minister Qi hurriedly.”
"How about this, I'll contact Mother Yang and ask them to hold a science event. When the time comes, I'll invite you and all the big names to show up and interact with the children.”
He couldn't interfere too much with the online fishing boat, but he could say a lot about the traditional media.
As for Weibo and other social media platforms, there were all sorts of verified accounts who deliberately distorted the news to earn eyeballs. It was not appropriate to deal with them now. When the heat of this matter died down, they would be held accountable and dealt with according to the law.
"Alright, Xiao Qi, thank you."
"Hey, why are you being so polite with me? So that's it for now? Take care of yourself!"
After some small talk, he hung up the phone.
When he looked at the trending search again, the overall fishing wheel was clearly leaning towards the positive side.
There were many rational voices.
"Robot competition?"
"Can this robot be like the Transformers?”
"If it's possible, it should be a man's romance!”
"What do you mean by romantic? I also studied mechanics, even though I'm now operating an excavator in a construction company!!”
"Some people are just too lenient. The University of Science and Technology is one of the top universities. What does it have to do with idle people how they spend their research funds?”
In just three hours, the robot competition, which was originally more than forty trending topics, jumped to sixth place on the trending list.
Even Purple Gold Pavilion and a large number of official Weibo accounts reposted the comments and expressed their support.
At this moment, the verified accounts who were sensitive to current events suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Some people noticed that some of the big Internet users who had deliberately set the pace had quietly deleted their angry and harsh comments. Instead, they praised the University of Science and Technology's robot competition and expressed their expectations.
"Hahaha, these haters are typical fence-sitters. They fall wherever the wind blows.”
"If you have the guts to stir up trouble, then go ahead and fight to the end. What are you afraid of!”
"Haha, it's not a big deal to watch the show. I'm waiting for the big V to be invited for tea!”
"What's the big deal about drinking tea? I think it's more reliable to give them a pair of silver bracelets.”
"Let me remind all my brothers and sisters, everyone, look at the other Weibo posts of the big V, there's a surprise!”
"Oh my god, so he's still an old thousand-layered cake. Everyone, follow me and report him!!”
In recent years, a large number of verified accounts had taken advantage of the Weibo official's interaction activities.
Some people started to pursue the idea of " being red or black is still red ". They deliberately expressed some very strange and twisted views and then attracted others to scold them.
The worst thing was that the more people scolded him, the more money he would earn!!
The popularity of the University of Science and Technology's robot competition was off the charts, and it triggered Ji Yuan's robot production video, which also attracted a lot of attention.
There were countless comments and likes!
The popularity shot up to the eleventh place on the trending list, closely following the official news of the University of Science and Technology's robot competition.
