After comforting Qu He, Yu Zhenglai came to the car, opened the rear door, greeted him with a smile, and patted Pekovic.
"Comrade Lao Pei, why don't you get out of the car and do some exercise?"
Pekovic opened his eyes expressionlessly and said with an unhappy expression: "I'm really not in the mood to get out of the car."
After saying that, he stretched his head and looked at the long yellow sand outside, and said with a firm tone.
“This place is not suitable for building a forest farm!”
"Not suitable!"
Hearing the conclusion of the international experts, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Yu Zhenglai's face, but when he thought of the leader's instructions, he patiently explained.
"Comrade Pekovic, there were trees here before, not just a few trees, but acres and acres of forest."
A vast forest?
Pekovic felt that his IQ and expertise had been insulted. The landscape here was a typical plateau desert. How could there have been forests?
These Chinese people just like to exaggerate.
He felt that he should teach them a lesson and expose their lies!
Upon thinking of this, Pekovic stood up and sat up, then got out of the car and said impatiently.
"Why do you Chinese people like to exaggerate so much?"
"Here? A vast forest?"
As Pekovic spoke, he stepped heavily on the sand.
"The geographical environment here is not suitable for the growth of trees!"
Upon hearing what the foreign experts said, Li Zhong, an expert from the Ministry of Forestry, quickly expressed support.
"Lao Yu is right. It is recorded in history books and county annals that this place used to be a vast forest."
After being refuted by different people one after another, Pekovic felt that his authority had been challenged and immediately replied unceremoniously.
"I'm a forestry expert! Not a history expert!"
"I will only make the most correct judgment based on the existing conditions. I am not interested in the previous records. That should be considered by historical experts!"
"Comrade Pekovic, Comrade Yu Zhenglai and Comrade Li Zhong are all veteran revolutionaries. They came to work in the forestry system in the early days of liberation. They are very loyal to their cause and will not lie to you."
Seeing the dispute between the two parties, the leader of the inspection team immediately spoke up to smooth things over.
Pekovic looked arrogant and said: "Okay, then prove it to me."
Qu He's long-suppressed dissatisfaction finally broke out. He took a step forward and spoke in a sonorous tone.
“Highland Three is proof!”
Upon hearing this, Pekovic laughed angrily.
Highland No. 3, Highland No. 3, from the capital to Chengde, he has heard this name countless times, and his ears are numb.
According to resources provided by the Ministry of Forestry, a total of 2,000 acres of North China larch have been planted in Highland No. 3. The survival rate of most of the seedlings has reached one-tenth, and the survival rate of a small number of self-raised seedlings has been as high as 100%.
thirty.
Afforestation in plateau and desert areas has always been a global problem. Whether it is one-tenth or one-third of the survival rate, it is a remarkable number.
As soon as he saw this data, Pekovic became interested without any encouragement at all. For this reason, he changed his itinerary to return to the country and went to Saihanba specifically for inspection.
The results of it?
As soon as he reached the underworld, endless anger surged from the bottom of his heart.
cheat!
This is naked deception!
Under conditions like Saihanba, the highest survival rate of saplings is actually 30%?
Let alone a 30% survival rate, he wouldn't believe it even if it was one tenth!
Those data are all fake!
It is precisely because of such preconceptions that Pekovic has been arrogant all the way and has never given others a good look.
But what he didn't expect was that when he arrived at Saihanba, the Chinese man in front of him would still swear to him about Highland No. 3?
Could they have just made it up and just believed it to be true?
good!
Since you said Highland No. 3, let’s go to Highland No. 3 and see how I can expose your clumsy lies!
"Since you said that Highland 3 can prove it, then there is no need for the subsequent inspection. Let's go directly to Highland 3!"
When he said these words, Pekovic's tone was full of sarcasm. Everyone present, even the honest man Li Zhong, was aroused to anger.
"Let's go! Go to Highland 3!"
After leaving these words, the leader of the inspection team turned around and left. At this moment, he suddenly felt that inviting Pekovic to Saihanba might have been a mistake.
Although Pekovic is an internationally renowned forestry expert and has a high reputation in the forestry field, these are not Pekovic’s reasons for questioning the Chinese people!
Questioning the Chinese?
He doesn't deserve it!
At this moment, Li Kun suddenly made a decision in his heart. No matter what, Pekovic must leave tomorrow!
Without Butcher Zhang, can we still eat pigs with hair on them?
Without you Pekovic, we can still plant good trees and live trees in Saihanba!
He had read the report submitted by Li Zhong before, and the young comrade named 'Feng Cheng' was good.
He has excellent professional knowledge, a good reputation, and strong leadership skills. Although there are still some issues left over from history that have not been resolved, he has a special understanding of that matter.
According to the feedback from the security department, that incident basically had nothing to do with 'Feng Cheng', and the young man could only be regarded as an unknown person.
Yu Zhenglai and Li Kun had known each other for a long time, and he was keenly aware of the anger in the old leader's chest.
However, he felt that the old leader had done too much!
Relieve anger!
Quite relieved!
If his position as director hadn't restricted him, Yu Zhenglai would have been unable to resist replying to Pekovic.
As the old song says, what about international experts?
Without you, can we still plant trees?
It’s not like they don’t have experts in Saihanba!
'Feng Cheng' did a good job and did not disgrace Captain Feng. Today's Saihanba can be said to be prosperous.
A few days ago, he had just received a work report from the forest farm. ‘Feng Cheng’ was leading the advance team to experiment with ‘all-light seedling cultivation’.
Although he doesn’t know much about technology, he knows how to read people. ‘Feng Cheng’ is not the kind of person who likes to talk too much. Since this guy has proposed the idea of ‘all-light seedling cultivation’, it must be feasible.
Whether ‘all-light seedling cultivation’ can be successful or not will be known next year.
It's only been a year, but he still has some patience.
On the other side, Pekovic also felt the anger hidden in Li Kun's words, but he didn't particularly care.
In the final analysis, he is from the S-Union, not from China. Even if you are in a high position, you have nothing to do with me.
What's more, he will return to China soon, and it's uncertain whether he can come to China by then.
Therefore, what should he fear?
Pekovic still insists on his opinion that Highland 3 is just a hoax.
