Huo Yu had to admit that the moment Xie Jie said these two words, his thoughts had already drifted to the land of China.
If you ask which nationality the icekeepers are most homesick for, it must be China.
The ancestors of the Chinese nation have lived on that land for generations and have also left their hometowns. The Chinese people miss their hometown so much that people from other countries are completely incomparable.
Calculating carefully, including the months when I participated in the Ice Keepers training camp, it has been almost a year since I left home.
Ever since he was a child, Huo Yu had never left home for such a long time, and he never went back even once.
"We'll discuss this matter later." Huo Yu hesitated, "If everything goes well at the scientific research station, I will find time to go back."
Xie Jie heard the hesitation in Huo Yu's heart and persuaded him in a soft tone:
"You are a smart kid with a sense of responsibility, faith, and a sense of mission. This is a good thing."
"But you also need to understand that an organization as big as the Ice Keepers can continue to operate without anyone, including you, and it should also open up some power to the people under you."
Xie Jie knew Huo Yu quite well and knew that he hesitated because he was worried about his scientific research station.
"Okay, I understand." Huo Yu's eyes became firm, "I will make time to go back.
Xie Jie smiled: "That's it for now. I'll go report to Old Man Wu now."
"Okay, Xiao Xie...Thank you, old man. Goodbye."
"Your stars, hash marks, percentages, braces..."
Huo Yu couldn't help but laugh when he heard the familiar sound of "smell of fragrance".
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
While little Xie Jie was still cursing, Huo Yu decisively hung up the call with a smile.
...
After Xie Jie hung up the call, he immediately called Wu Song's office.
Wu Song picked up the communicator, and the old white man in the room, the commander-in-chief, was leisurely sipping hot tea, showing no sign of shyness.
Wu Song didn't care and started chatting with Xie Jie as if no one else was around.
It can be seen that the relationship between Wu Song and the old white man is better than most of the top Ice Keepers imagined.
After a while, Wu Song hung up the phone, his eyes a little wandering.
The old white man glanced at him and asked in fluent Chinese: "What's wrong?"
Wu Song glanced at him: "Huo Yu, that student of mine found a great auk."
"Auk!?" The old white man put down the hot tea in his hand, "Arctic penguins? Aren't they extinct?"
In terms of the degree of surprise of discovering the great auk, the old white man, as a European and American, was more shocked than Wu Song, a Chinese.
After all, these lovely creatures were killed to extinction by their ancestors.
Wu Song nodded: "Although I don't know how Huo Yu did it, he would never joke about such a thing."
After hearing this, the old white man was also a little excited. He stood up and paced back and forth in the room.
"Then what are we waiting for?" The old white man looked at Wu Song, "hurry up and send a survey team to bring back the great auk!"
Wu Song shook his head: "No, Huo Yu doesn't agree."
"Don't agree?" The old white man's eyes widened. "Old Wutou, you are a little too indulgent to your students. Can he, a newly promoted senior icekeeper, have the final say on this matter?"
"Old Li, what are you so anxious about?" Wu Song glared.
The old white man's name is Li, not the Chinese Li, but the English lee.
However, he is proficient in Chinese and has a deep understanding of Chinese culture. For convenience, he simply called his Chinese name "Li".
Wu Song also kept calling him Lao Li for convenience.
"Let me ask you, if you take the great auk back, what are you going to do with it?" Wu Song continued to ask.
Li frowned: "Of course, we must protect and raise them well, and let our Ice Keeper research team conduct protective research."
"So, which country's research team do you plan to let take over this matter?" Wu Songfu asked meaningfully.
Li opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly thought of something and fell silent again.
The icekeepers have too many scientific research teams, but there are few scientists of various nationalities forming a scientific research team.
The top scientific research teams are all established by those major scientific and technological countries, and the teams are all scientists from the same country.
China, America, Neon...
Such a team can communicate easily through language and have a consistent knowledge system, so its research efficiency will be high.
For example, Xie Jie's Hua Guo Biological Research Team is the Hua Guo Scientific Research Team within the Ice Keeper organization.
So, which team should we hand over the Great Auk?
I am afraid that no matter how the distribution is done, the scientific research teams of other major countries will not be convinced.
What's more, the value of a living auk is huge, and Li is not confident that his scientific research team will have selfish motives.
European and American scientific research teams are controlled by capital, and Li knows the true face of capital only too well.
When the profit reaches 10%, they will be ready to take action; when the profit reaches 50%, they will take desperate risks; when the profit reaches 100%, they dare to trample all laws in the world; when the profit reaches 300%, they dare to
risk hanging.
Li calmed down, sat back on the sofa, and took a sip of hot tea: "Your precious apprentice, what did he say?"
Wu Song said calmly: "He said that he wants to have full custody of the great auk, and that the research work can only be done by the Chinese Icekeeper and the Ministry of Biology."
Li raised his head in disbelief. If the person in front of him was not Wu Song, he would have cursed him long ago.
After talking for a long time, why don't you hand over the research power to your country, China?
"But." Wu Song changed the topic, "My apprentice has also given other countries a chance to fight for the Great Auk."
"Huo Yu invites scientific research teams from any country to his scientific research station. As long as they have the ability to make the great auk follow him voluntarily, Huo Yu will immediately let go!"
"This is what he said: Humans have failed the great auk once, and this time let the great auk make its own choice."
Li's eyes widened exaggeratedly.
Are you so confident? Leave it to the Great Auk to make your own choice?
No matter how rare the great auk is, it is just an animal with a low IQ. If it is tempted by some random food, wouldn't it be kidnapped?
"you sure?"
"I believe in Huo Yu." Wu Song said without hesitation.
Li thought for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, let's do it."
"I will personally go to the 249 Research Station to witness the final ownership of the great auk."
"By the way, I'm also going to see if this legendary 249 scientific research station is really that magical."
Wu Song stared.
The old boy said it nicely, but he wanted to leave the mess to me and go fish for himself!
