Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

Chapter 2129 Can’t Cover the Sky

Liu Fusheng pondered, "Is it Professor Zhao, who is known as an expert in international relations, gives speeches all over the country, and has appeared on many TV stations, and is widely known?"

Liu Fusheng was indeed quite familiar with this Professor Zhao. In his past and present lives, he had a great say in domestic academia and international relations.

He is one of the most famous public intellectuals in the country. Every day he brags about how advanced and powerful the West is and how good the quality of its people is. But what follows is that he belittles the quality of the country's citizens, economic development problems, etc. He even makes veiled criticisms of current politics and advocates comprehensive Westernization.

In the previous life, the motherland's economy continued to develop and national defense became stronger and stronger. Professor Zhao gradually fell from the altar, became a running dog criticized by thousands of people, and disappeared from people's sight.

Unexpectedly, in this life Liu Fusheng actually had the opportunity to meet him and even discuss the issue of the food crisis together. It was really interesting.

While Liu Fusheng was thinking, Wang Jian said, "It's Professor Zhao. He has a great influence in the domestic academic community and also has some appeal abroad. Many media organizations in developed countries have invited him to give speeches."

Liu Fusheng said: "Is he an obstacle to us?"

Wang Jian said: "Yes, Professor Zhao has gathered many academic authorities and some media reporters to build momentum to support their views. Now our views are in the minority, and their voices of surrender have become the mainstream."

"My uncle said that the policies of this discussion meeting will have a role in the Party Central Committee, and the top leaders will seriously refer to our discussion results. Therefore, the current situation is very serious. We cannot let these people who worship foreign things and only know how to talk big delay the development of the country."

Wang Jian became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and even seemed a little indignant.

Liu Fusheng smiled and didn't say much. He was very confident in himself, but he couldn't make any rash promises before he understood the specific situation.

Soon, the two arrived downstairs of Professor Wang's house.

Liu Fusheng walked into the house and found that the food in the restaurant had already been placed on the table.

Professor Wang, Academicians Li Zhaolin and Li Zhaokun, diplomat Wang Heping, and Wang Weiyong from the economic think tank were all waiting for them in the living room.

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long, seniors and teachers."

Professor Wang said, "Hurry up and make it. We can eat and talk at the same time."

Wang Weiyong said, "Yes, Xiao Liu, please stop being polite and sit down. You must have had a hard time coming all the way from Chaojiang."

They knew that Liu Fusheng didn't drink alcohol, so they even made tea for him.

Liu Fusheng sat down to drink tea, then said: "I am indeed a little hungry. This table of delicious food is really rare."

Professor Wang laughed heartily, and the atmosphere at the table became harmonious. Everyone picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

After dinner, Professor Wang said, "Xiao Liu, I know you are very busy with official duties, but I'm afraid you will have to stay a few more days when you return to Yanjing this time."

"Oh? Why?" Liu Fusheng was a little confused. He thought he could leave after a meeting.

Wang Heping said: "The difficulties we are facing are more serious than we imagined, and I am afraid they cannot be solved in a short time."

Liu Fusheng was surprised and asked, "Is Professor Zhao Lin difficult to deal with?"

When Wang Heping heard him say Zhao Lin's name, he immediately looked at Wang Jian, and then said, "Wang Jian told you that on the way, right?"

Liu Fusheng nodded.

Wang Heping said: "Professor Zhao Lin is very good at making excuses. He even has official endorsements behind him. This time we are attacked from both sides."

Liu Fusheng frowned and said, "As far as I know, the official should avoid suspicion in discussions like ours that are semi-academic and semi-policy. Once official opinions are mixed in, the fairness of the discussion cannot be guaranteed."

Wang Weiyong sighed, "That's true in principle, but Zhao Lin and his people don't follow the rules at all. While they are debating with us, they are secretly using their connections to win over and exclude people with different opinions. We have been greatly affected."

"For example, the viewpoint he raised yesterday has corresponding data officially released today. At our economic think tank, some leaders even put pressure on us from top to bottom, saying that our viewpoints do not conform to the actual situation and even say that we are misleading the country and the people. This is really too much."

Wang Heping also echoed, "The same is true for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. When it comes to foreign relations, some leaders even held special meetings to warn us to put the overall situation first and not affect international relations. They said that the country is still focusing on development and that the external image should not be too tough. They also asked us to have a clear understanding of ourselves and the country. These words really made me speechless."

After they finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy.

Professor Wang also shook his head and sighed, as if he had a lot to say.

Academician Li Zhaolin of the Chinese Academy of Sciences said coldly: "It's fine for your economic think tank and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. After all, one is a government functional department and the other is also serving policy formulation. It's normal for the leader to speak."

"But the same thing happened to our Chinese Academy of Sciences. Someone came to me with a clearly tampered agricultural data and shamelessly told me that the data had been statistically verified in detail and asked me not to talk nonsense... They were clearly falsifying data."

Academician Li Zhaokun said: "Yes, the previous data were all rigorously calculated and counted. Now they are actually falsifying data. This is really irresponsible and does not live up to the trust of the country and the people."

Liu Fusheng could tell that the people who were causing the trouble did have evil intentions. The data obtained from the Chinese Academy of Sciences would definitely have an important impact on the country's policy making. These people were inflating the statistical data, which was tantamount to shaking the foundation of the country.

Thinking of this, Liu Fusheng asked: "Do you know who is the person who supports Zhao Lin behind the scenes?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the table fell silent.

Professor Wang hesitated and said, "Recently, Zhao Lin and the Tang family have been getting closer."

Liu Fusheng narrowed his eyes. He couldn't have imagined that this was actually done by the Tang family. It was really a narrow road for enemies to meet.

However, the Tang family is not a good thing, especially Mr. Tang. In addition to various struggles within the organization, he has been looking for support from foreign countries.

He felt that only by gaining support from overseas could he gain an absolute advantage in the domestic struggle and leave a way out for himself and his family.

It is natural for people who have such ideas to support certain foreign forces.

Liu Fusheng thought for a moment and said solemnly, "Professor Wang, and all the teachers, I don't think this matter is as pessimistic as you think. The black hands behind the scenes cannot cover up the sky. Whether they are creating public opinion or falsifying data, they cannot be seen in the light. We just need to be clear and ruthlessly reject all their opinions."
