Capítulo 765: Chapter 763 Adulation of Foreign Things 2
When other guests heard them repeatedly praising America and disparaging Hua Country and its people, someone who couldn’t bear it anymore loudly said to the person at the same table, “Hey, bro, did you see the newspaper today? Our country has now manufactured lithium batteries for charging that even foreign countries, including America, do not have.”
When the man spoke about America, he deliberately elongated his voice and emphasized his tone, his words brimming with pride and exultation.
The people at other tables, already unable to tolerate the man and woman in sunglasses, joined in the chorus of support now that someone had taken the lead.
“Exactly, our Hua Country has developed so well. It has only been a few years since our founding, and we have already made atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs, and artificial satellites. Now with these weapons, Hua Country fears no one.”
“Isn’t that the truth? Last year, our country even made color televisions, and this year it produced lithium batteries not available abroad. I believe that given time, we will eventually surpass America.”
Zhong Yuan and Tian Wei were thrilled by everything they heard.
“Wow, our country is really amazing, managing to create chargeable lithium batteries that don’t even exist abroad! The scientist is too incredible. I must study hard and strive to be like that in the future, to contribute to our nation,” Tian Wei said excitedly.
Zhong Yuan, his face full of admiration, nodded, “This scientist is too impressive, even more so than those abroad! I will learn from him and strive to become a scientist in the future, creating more and greater technologies for our nation.”
Compared to the excitement of Tian Wei and Zhong Yuan, Jiang Mianmian was surprised at the extensive promotion of the lithium battery in the newspaper.
After her initial surprise, she reveled in the praise from the guests around her.
Although the people in the room didn’t know that she was the “little scientist” who had developed the rechargeable lithium battery, it did not diminish her joy.
Becaause the person they were praising was none other than herself, Jiang Mianmian!
Especially since Zhong Yuan and Tian Wei, who had always wanted to surpass her, were now saying they wanted to become like her—this made her feel a bit bashful.
Heehee!
Yu Cheng, having heard everyone’s comments, was not surprised at all because he had known about this before they set off.
The old man had also told him this news would be published in the newspaper and asked him to share the good news with the Jiang family members.
But Yu Cheng hadn’t told them, thinking that the surprise for Little Lamb would be greater if she saw the news in the newspaper herself.
He just hadn’t expected that his plan would be spoiled here.
Yet seeing her current reaction, she seemed pleasantly surprised, which was enough for him.
The man and woman in sunglasses realized that the talk about the chargeable lithium battery around the room was aimed at their earlier comments.
The two of them looked around at the passionate crowd and let out a sound of extreme disdain.
The man in sunglasses took off his shades and looked at the people with a disdainful gaze, “You country bumpkins really aren’t knowledgeable at all, are you? Atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs, artificial satellites—America has all these, and had them before Hua Country. America’s are even better and more advanced. So what is there for you to boast or be complacent about? And that so-called chargeable lithium battery, it’s just a small lithium battery. What is it actually worth?”
