Rebirth of Bloody Romance

Zhong Yuemin turned his head slightly, and his sharp eyes shot straight at Song Xiangjun like two sharp knives. His eyes revealed a kind of depth and unruliness, as if hiding thousands of worlds, which made Song Xiangjun's heart tremble involuntarily.

Song Xiangjun felt a little uncomfortable when he looked at her. She tried to avoid his sight, but the strong sense of oppression made her nowhere to escape. She felt scared and didn't understand why Zhong Yuemin looked at her like that.

"Teacher Song, it's okay what others say about me, but don't you understand?" Zhong Yuemin's voice was low and magnetic, as if it carried some kind of magic that made people fall into it involuntarily.

Song Xiangjun was stunned by his words. She raised her head, met his gaze, and tried to find the answer from it. "W-what?" Her voice trembled a little, and she seemed a little lacking in confidence.

Zhong Yuemin smiled gently, and that smile revealed a wild and uninhibited temperament, as if he was the king of this world, and no one could match him. "Haha... People laugh at me for being too crazy, I laugh at people for not seeing through me."

Zhong Yuemin's words were full of confidence and arrogance, as if he had seen through everything in this world.

However, Song Xiangjun was deeply shocked by his words. She looked at Zhong Yuemin's unrestrained smile and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

Song Xiangjun knew that Zhong Yuemin was not an ordinary person. He had his own ideas and pursuits and would not be bound by worldly views. But she had been struggling in the shackles of the world and could not break free.

Zhong Yuemin glanced at Song Xiangjun again, his eyes flashing with determination and persistence. Every word and sentence he spoke seemed like a sharp sword, cutting through the fog in Song Xiangjun's heart.

"Teacher Song, you asked me what I want to do? I can tell you. I want more people to know that our country has hope and a future." Zhong Yuemin's voice was sonorous and powerful, full of passion and conviction.

Song Xiangjun was infected by his determination, and the doubts and uneasiness in her heart gradually dissipated. She looked up at Zhong Yuemin, whose eyes were full of blood and passion, as if there was a kind of magic that made her involuntarily follow his rhythm and feel his faith.

"Many people now believe that our country cannot catch up with those developed countries, and even think that RB, South Korea and Singapore are insurmountable mountains."

Zhong Yuemin's words made Song Xiangjun and Lin Shufang feel depressed. She knew that this was a common view held by many people, even some celebrities.

But Zhong Yuemin's next words were like a stream of fresh air, dispelling the haze in Song Xiangjun and Lin Shufang's hearts. "But, Teacher Song, we can't be bound by these views. We can't think that we are really incapable just because of what others say. We must believe in ourselves and believe in our country."

Zhong Yuemin's words were full of confidence and strength, as if injecting new vitality into Song Xiangjun. "Do you know? Almost all social celebrities have claimed on various occasions that China's labor cost advantage is meaningless. Japanese workers are much more efficient than Chinese workers. One Japanese worker can replace 200 Chinese workers."

Zhong Yuemin's words surprised Song Xiangjun. She knew that this kind of concept was very common in society and was even regarded as a fact by many people.

However, she had never heard such a firm and powerful rebuttal from someone as she did now.

"But we can't just be affected by what others say. We can't just give up like this."

Zhong Yuemin's voice was full of passion and fighting spirit. "We must believe in ourselves and our country. We must use our own efforts to prove to them that we Chinese can do it, and our country can do it!"

At a time when the field of scientific research is booming, Zhong Yuemin is well aware that those elites with outstanding achievements and superb skills are choosing to leave this land they once loved.

They have lost the spark of hope in their eyes, because they feel it is difficult to display their talents here and cannot find a real stage. Some people think that China lacks a platform for them to display their skills, and in their hearts, there seems to be a wider sky waiting for them to fly.

Zhong Yuemin understands that everyone has the right to pursue a better life. He will not stand on the moral high ground to blame anyone, nor will he use morality to restrict others' choices.

After all, everyone has their own dreams and pursuits, and everyone has the right to make choices for their own future.

However, when outstanding talents leave, those who remain are often those who have mediocre achievements or have not yet been noticed. It’s not that they don’t want to leave, but the reality leaves them with nowhere to go.

Zhong Yuemin’s idea is that he must try his best no matter what, and try to keep as many people as possible.

Zhong Yuemin suppressed his emotions, his eyes were sharp, he took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, then turned to face everyone present and said in authentic English: "I disagree with Mr. Walter's point of view, mainly in three aspects."

Zhong Yuemin's voice was not loud, but every word seemed to carry a tremendous amount of force and was clearly heard by everyone.

"First, Mr. Watt believes that there are no conditions for developing industry and manufacturing. I strongly disagree with this. As the most populous country in the world, China has a huge labor force and a vast market. Our land is fertile and our resources are rich, which are the solid foundation for developing industry and manufacturing. More importantly, we have hardworking and intelligent people who have infinite creativity and fighting spirit. As long as we are good at taking advantage of these advantages, we will surely be able to achieve rapid development in the fields of industry and manufacturing."

Zhong Yuemin's words were powerful, like seeds falling into people's hearts, causing ripples.

"Secondly, Mr. Watt believes that now is the era of international division of labor. China does not need to develop industry and can meet demand through international procurement. I disagree with this. International division of labor is indeed a trend, but it does not mean that we can give up our own industrial development. A country's economic strength and comprehensive national strength depend to a large extent on its industrial manufacturing capabilities. If we rely too much on international procurement, we will lose the ability to innovate and develop independently, which is extremely detrimental to a country's long-term development. The development of a country cannot rely solely on external support and assistance. We must have our own core competitiveness and an industrial system that can innovate independently. Only in this way can we remain invincible in the fierce international competition."

Zhong Yuemin's voice became more and more passionate, as if a fire was burning in his chest, illuminating his way forward.

"Third, Mr. Watt doubts the development potential of China's economy. I cannot agree with this point and I firmly oppose it. China is a big country with a population of one billion and huge market potential. Our economy is growing steadily and the living standards of the people are constantly improving. More importantly, our government is actively promoting reform and innovation and increasing investment in education and science and technology, which are key factors in promoting the sustained and healthy development of the economy. Therefore, I believe that the development potential of China's economy is huge and it will surely achieve even more brilliant achievements in the future."

As soon as Zhong Yuemin finished speaking, the translator quickly relayed his words to Secretary Liu.

After hearing this, Secretary Liu's face instantly turned pale. "This Zhong Yuemin is simply making a fuss! I'm going to call Mr. Zhong right away to see what his son has done!"

Principal Zhou was sitting nearby, his tense nerves slightly relaxed. He thought, as long as it wasn't a political issue, it would be easy to deal with. He glanced at Zhong Yuemin on the stage. Although the young man was young and frivolous, he had an unyielding spirit in his bones. He was indeed a promising talent.

The students in the audience started talking about this. Those who were good at listening to English began to whisper to those who were not so good at listening about what had just happened. For a moment, the whole venue was filled with whispers, as if they were discussing a bomb that was about to explode.

"Hey, did you hear that? Secretary Liu was pissed off by what Zhong Yuemin just said!"

"Really? What did he say?"

"He said... oh, I can't really explain it, but it was some very impressive stuff anyway."

"Oh, this time Zhong Yuemin is in big trouble. Secretary Liu is known for his hot temper."

While everyone was talking, Secretary Liu walked out of the auditorium and called Mr. Zhong. Zhong Shanyue's steady voice came from the other end of the phone. "Hello, Xiao Liu, what's the matter?"

Secretary Liu took a deep breath and tried to make his tone sound calmer. "Mr. Zhong, it's your son, Zhong Yuemin."

When Mr. Zhong heard that it was Zhong Yuemin, he couldn't help but frowned slightly. "What happened to Yuemin? What trouble has he gotten into again?"

Secretary Liu told Mr. Zhong everything that had just happened, and at the end he added, "Mr. Zhong, I think Zhong Yuemin's behavior this time is really too much. You have to discipline him."

After listening to Secretary Liu's narration, Mr. Zhong was silent for a while, then slowly said, "Xiao Liu, I know Yuemin is sometimes a little naughty, but he is not a bad person. I will have a good talk with him, don't worry."

Secretary Liu was not very satisfied when he heard Zhong Shanyue's words. But he had no choice, as Zhong Shanyue's rank was much higher than his. He dared to express his dissatisfaction in front of Principal Zhou, but he didn't dare to do that in front of Zhong Shanyue.

Walter stood on the podium, his voice echoing through the loudspeaker in every corner of the auditorium. His words revealed the rigor and confidence of a scholar.

“First of all, I must emphasize that I am speaking here today as a tenured professor at MIT, not as a businessman. Every word and every conclusion I say is based on currently available data, and is drawn after rigorous reasoning and summary. I deeply regret that the window of communication between the East and the West is still blocked. Although this student’s indignation based on nationalism is understandable to a certain extent, we must understand that everyone is a prisoner of their own experience, and because of different encounters and experiences, their views on the same thing will naturally be different.”

Walter adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose and continued, "As for the point you mentioned, I would like to ask you, classmate, have you ever been to the United States and Europe in person? Have you done in-depth data comparison and research? Without investigation, there is no right to speak. We cannot make hasty conclusions based on some one-sided information."

Water's implication was very clear. He seemed to be implying that Zhong Yuemin was like a frog in a well, who had never seen the vastness and diversity of the outside world.

In such a closed world, it is inevitable to have arrogant, impulsive and even ignorant thoughts. Although his words were gentle, they revealed a kind of doubt and disdain for Zhong Yuemin's views.

Zhong Yuemin cursed in his heart: You damned American grandson has no moral principles, you are putting a damn accusation on me. Since you are shameless, don't follow the routine, and act tough with me, who is afraid of who?

Zhong Yuemin looked directly at Professor Water and said firmly, "I respect every word you say, but I must also point out that in the tide of reform and opening up, China is making every effort to catch up with the pace of the world's third industrial revolution. The progress we have made, whether in scientific and technological innovation or economic development, cannot be ignored."

Zhong Yuemin paused, his tone becoming more resolute. "However, I smelled a hint of racism in your speech today. Professor, from what perspective do you deny China's innovation and scientific research capabilities? Have you really understood the hard work and achievements of Chinese researchers? Have you really paid attention to the driving force and potential of China's continued rapid economic development?"

Zhong Yuemin showed a look of dissatisfaction and doubt on his face. "China has a long history and splendid culture. Our researchers are constantly overcoming scientific and technological problems and promoting social progress. Our economy is also growing steadily and has made important contributions to global development. Aren't these worthy of your affirmation?"

Zhong Yuemin took a deep breath and continued, "Professor, I hope you can look at China's development from a more objective and comprehensive perspective. We do have many shortcomings, but we are also working hard and making progress. We look forward to working with countries around the world to promote the progress of human civilization."

"The United States is a great democracy where everyone is born equal and has the right to freedom. That's what makes America great, and we're proud of it. All ethnic groups live in harmony." Walter started preaching, which was very contagious. I guess many people were moved.

Zhong Yuemin stood on the stage, facing a silent audience, and his next words echoed in the empty conference hall, as if carrying an irresistible force.

Zhong Yuemin's words were direct and sharp, like a sharp sword, pointing directly to the core of the problem.
