Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

Chapter 2140 I Can’t Stand It Anymore

Scholars do not pay much attention to emotional intelligence during discussions and tend to speak more directly. Zhao Lin habitually started by directly mocking and squeezing Liu Fusheng.

Liu Fusheng laughed: "I'm sorry, Professor, I really can't remember your last name, just like I can't remember what great contributions you have made. Such trivial matters are easily overlooked. I think you are used to it, right?"

Professor Wang and others couldn't help laughing when they heard this. Liu Fusheng's words were really mean.

Zhao Lin's face darkened. "Comrade Liu, I hope that everyone will study hard and discuss issues seriously, instead of engaging in verbal disputes. If you think what I said is wrong, please provide evidence to refute it. If you don't have evidence, just shut up."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "I do not have the internal data of international grain traders, but I do know that more than half a century ago, the Western hegemony led by the United States had the world's most powerful air force, navy, most advanced weapons, and powerful atomic bombs."

"At that time, we had just founded our country, and the whole country was in ruins. Years of war had consumed our national strength, and less than one-tenth of the people in the country could barely get enough to eat."

Zhao Lin frowned, not knowing what he meant.

Zhao Lin's supporters asked impatiently, "Comrade Liu, does this have anything to do with the food problem?"

Liu Fusheng said seriously, "Of course it is related. At the beginning, we didn't know how many planes, cannons, ships, weapons and wealth the United Nations army led by the United States had. Just like today, we don't know how much capital the international grain traders have, how big their appetite is, and who is supporting them behind the scenes."

"More than half a century ago, the country was in dire straits, the army had no decent weapons, and no support from the air force and navy. We still fought tenaciously and finally won."

"Now that our country has so much grain reserves, how come there are still so many surrenderists?"

Liu Fusheng's voice, through the microphone, was clearly transmitted to the ears of every participant.

At this time, Zhao Lin and his accomplices finally understood what Liu Fusheng meant. They wanted to refute him, but what could they say? Liu Fusheng was telling the truth.

In silence, Liu Fusheng made his opening statement: "More than half a century ago, our ancestors stood up to fight for the interests of the country and the nation, and they were willing to sacrifice their lives and shed their blood. They paid a heavy price and defeated the wolfish ambitions of the great powers."

"After more than half a century of development, we are already many times stronger than before. In this process, we have endured and compromised, but what have we gained? Not the common development promised by the West, but aggressiveness and encroachment!"

"Everyone, the soybean war a few years ago caused 90% of the country's grain and oil companies to go bankrupt, countless farmers lost all their money, and the country lost a huge amount of wealth. Then what? They started another food war. If we don't resist, we will completely lose our food freedom and become an economic colony of the powers."

"This is not a business deal where we can negotiate, study slowly, haggle over how much capital the other party has. This is a life-and-death class struggle. Should we just give in just because others have stronger data on paper? If so, what is the point of the country having an army? What is the point of the people having us?"

Liu Fusheng's words were powerful, clear and sharp, and every word struck everyone's heart.

In the conference room, you could hear a pin drop, and everyone held their breath.

"Okay."

"aweason."

A few seconds later, Professor Wang shouted and then led the applause.

Immediately afterwards, thunderous applause broke out in the conference room, including from many experts and scholars who supported Zhao Lin.

They applauded Liu Fusheng, not because they would change their stance because of his words, but because Liu Fusheng's words were truly inspiring and made them feel excited.

Zhao Lin's face looked very ugly. He never expected that the man named Liu would start with full firepower and say such passionate and extremely inflammatory words without even warming up.

After the applause died down, Zhao Lin said in a deep voice: "Comrade Liu, what you just said is indeed very contagious. However, we cannot do things just based on passion. We must pay attention to scientific development and seek truth from facts."

"Excuse me, do you understand the nature of food prices? Do you know the rules of the game in the international market? Do you know the specific provisions of the terms we signed when we joined the WTO? Do you understand the meaning of honest business and world finance?"

"Comrade Liu, I'm afraid you don't even know the real purpose of our views?"

In terms of momentum, Zhao Lin's series of questions were no less impressive than Liu Fusheng's impassioned speech.

After he finished speaking, the conference room became even quieter, because the questions Zhao Lin raised were also very sharp. Many people felt that Liu Fusheng, a non-local government official who had just joined the discussion, did not have the ability to answer these questions.

The expressions of Professor Wang, Wang Weiyong, Li Zhaolin, Li Zhaokun and others also changed slightly. It is conceivable that they were also worried about this.

Liu Fusheng did not answer immediately, but looked thoughtful.

Professor Wang wanted to help him resist the attack, but just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Zhao Lin: "I hope that other comrades will not express their opinions for the time being, because I really want to know what the basis of Comrade Liu's passionate speech is?"

"We cannot act recklessly when dealing with international issues. We must assess the situation and act accordingly. Reckless actions will only intensify conflicts and make things even more out of control."

After saying this, he stared at Liu Fusheng and slowly said, "Comrade Liu Fusheng, the success of our revolution, the liberation of our country, and the prosperity of our people were not achieved by brute force."

"Our goal is ambitious and firm, but we must be careful and cautious when implementing it, as if we were on the edge of an abyss or treading on thin ice. Only in this way can we live up to the trust of the country and the people."

Zhao Lin took advantage of the fact that Liu Fusheng was not an economist and was very young, and wanted to concentrate his firepower to take him down in one go.

As long as we put down his arrogance, subsequent matters will be easy to handle.

Liu Fusheng sighed and said, "I agree with part of what Professor Zhao said."

Professor Wang and others all changed color, and there was a slight commotion in the conference room.

Before Zhao Lin showed a proud look on his face, Liu Fusheng said, "I agree with Professor Zhao's statement of certain facts. I also know that we cannot rely on passion alone to deal with international affairs. Otherwise, we will fall into an irretrievable situation."
