"Just one sentence?"
Wang Yu's words first stunned the audience, and then were met with even more enthusiastic laughter.
Such extraordinary technical skill could be resolved with just one sentence?
Didn't that mean he could earn ten million with a single sentence? And in US dollars?
Even when boasting, one should have some semblance of credibility!
Did he think these experts and doctors were mere putty to be molded? That their hard-earned achievements were worth less than his single sentence?
Not only the onlookers with their mocking expressions, but even Elder Zhou, who was on good terms with Wang Yu and held many high hopes for him, could only shake his head helplessly.
This young man had gotten a little carried away.
Of course, he didn't voice this thought, but Mr. Bach beside him couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"It seems I made the right decision to be a judge this time! This is truly amusing! I haven't encountered such an interesting joke in many years. The last time was when I was six years old, and I thought I could fly to the moon by pedaling a bicycle. Then my dear mother taught me a valuable lesson with her warm and generous slap, reminding me to face reality. Reality isn't a movie, and there are no ETs..."
"Ahem! Mr. Bach, we're not discussing aliens right now," Mu Yuntao coughed, interrupting Mr. Bach's lengthy discourse.
Even with his status, he needed to show a certain degree of respect to such a national treasure of a senior engineer.
Then, Mu Yuntao's gaze turned to Wang Yu, instantly filled with a surge of anger.
"I didn't travel all this way to listen to your nonsense! If you wish to concede, you should admit your inferiority sooner rather than stubbornly clinging on like this."
Mu Yuntao's words immediately made everything clear to everyone. So Wang Yu wanted to admit defeat? It made sense that he said it could be solved with one sentence.
What was he playing at? Putting on a grand display of arrogance and pretense!
Instantly, everyone's gaze towards Wang Yu shifted.
If before it was mockery and ridicule, now it was blatant and absolute scorn!
Was this a case of wanting to have one's cake and eat it too?
"Heh heh, is this the person you chose, sister? I initially thought he might be from a humble background, but at least he had some backbone. Now, it seems he's utterly useless. What a disappointment!"
Wu Manman quietly leaned closer to Wu Lingling, speaking nonchalantly beside her, her tone laced with regret.
However, her gloating expression revealed no trace of any actual regret.
"I knew it, I knew it!" Wang Jin shouted uninhibitedly from the crowd, speaking to everyone.
"Wang Yu is infamous where we come from, it wouldn't be an exaggeration. How could he possibly have any backbone? Before, he was just stubbornly pretending to be tough out of pride. Now that he can't keep it up, his true colors are showing as he directly surrenders and begs for mercy.
Even in our Jiangyang County, he couldn't keep his car factory afloat and switched to tinkering with things like kettles and fans.
Everyone, tell me, what kind of car factory would produce kettles and fans? If this man isn't a swindler, who is?"
Wang Jin's words, spoken with righteous indignation, drew the attention of many onlookers.
Those who learned the "truth" from his words revealed expressions of sudden enlightenment.
So this Wang Yu was such a hypocritical swindler. To think we supported him before!
Even a small number of those who had initially sided with Wang Yu began to change their minds and waver.
Not to mention the others, who looked at him with immense contempt.
Meanwhile, Yang Wanli, the general manager of the department store, smiled indulgently from the side. It seemed bringing Wang Jin here was the right decision. These young men were not only good at flattery but also skilled in networking.
This had completely destroyed Wang Yu's reputation. Good, very good!
"So this is the kind of person Wang Yu is. His uncle's descendant has completely shamed our nation!"
"No, what face does such a person even have?"
"Pah!"
...
In an instant, discussions and conversations of all kinds filled the air.
The entire hall once again became lively and boisterous, even more so than the previous moments combined.
The only person present who remained unfazed was Wang Yu himself.
Of course, Wu Lingling, seated in the audience, was also calm.
However, her constantly clenched fists had wrinkled her long evening gown, clearly indicating that her inner turmoil was far from the outward calmness.
"Wang Yu, I have believed in you from the very beginning. I hope you won't let my trust go unrewarded," Wu Lingling murmured to herself, her voice so low that only she could hear it.
Wu Manman, beside her, could hear it, and she curled her lips in disdain.
"Heh heh, elder sister, when did you become so naive? I told you long ago, this kind of person is not a good match. Only..."
"Enough, just wait and see the final outcome."
"He won't give up until he hits the Yellow River. I shall wait and see!"
Putting aside Wu Lingling and Wu Manman, even Tojo Ryukawa and the others opposite Wang Yu wore smiles. However, they maintained a certain dignified reserve, refraining from open mockery, and calmly watched Wang Yu, awaiting his confession of defeat.
If they had known this would happen, why bother in the first place? He had arrogantly refused Hong Jianjun's olive branch before, truly making them think he possessed some extraordinary abilities!
But it made sense. A mere high school student, a kid who could barely recall a few formulas, what kind of ability could he possibly have?
The ultimate victor would, after all, be our Seiroku Group!
With this thought, Tojo Ryukawa and the others straightened their backs, their expressions excited, and quietly awaited Wang Yu to speak the final word.
"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment. Let him finish his sentence now," Mu Yuntao said, his voice transmitted through the microphone to everyone's ears. The hall immediately fell silent, and all eyes focused on Wang Yu.
"Heh heh," Wang Yu suddenly chuckled, breaking the stiff atmosphere.
"Really, after all this fuss, all this time and effort, it was all just a matter of one sentence," Wang Yu said indifferently.
At this moment, everyone present believed he was about to concede.
And then, Wang Yu opened his mouth again and uttered a sentence.
"But unfortunately, my sentence is not a concession, but the solution I offer.
That is, simply install eight oversized industrial fans on your assembly line, and all the unpacked empty boxes will be blown away, thus solving the problem?"
Wang Yu said this casually and then tossed the microphone aside.
That's it?
That's it!
