Capítulo 618: Chapter 617 Face-Slapping Countdown 1
Chi Guize settled back into his seat and began to read his book intently.
Neither of them felt there was anything amiss, as if this was rely a calm exchange.
Around them, the minds of all other dical scholars seed to have exploded!
Everyone looked at Bi Yu, their eyes wide with shock to the point of bulging out!
Bi, Bi Yu, the big shot… She actually took the initiative to invite an unknown young professor from Huaxia?
She even seed to be disdained?
Not only did the big shot not get angry, but she also backed down and asked again?!
When the young professor finally agreed, he even seed reluctant!?
Their emotions were reversed, weren’t they?
Xue Mingqing and Shi Liyun’s faces turned as dark as coal!
They stared at the scene before them, unable to believe it!
Why?!?
Off to the side, You Junyao and Wen Yan also had extrely ugly expressions on their faces. They had just taken the initiative to greet Bi Yu, only to be outright ignored.
Was there anything special about that little Huaxia professor?
You Junyao thought this and took out his phone to send a ssage to Assistant Lin: “Check that Chi Gui’s background again!”
–
The award competition officially began soon after.
The Madam Curie Award involved five major prizes, including three for team categories and two for individuals.
Chi Gui’s team and those of Xue Mingqing and Shi Liyun had entered for the best research and developnt team prize.
There were three teams in total for the best R&D prize, determined by the jury through comprehensive data discussion. The first place would receive a gold dal of honor.
After the host on stage finished the welco speech, the award ceremony officially began!
All the people beneath the stage… including those who didn’t even get nominated, couldn’t help but sit up straight and stare nervously at the stage!
You Junyao had long known his team would definitely secure a spot for the best R&D prize and wasn’t anxious at all.
He couldn’t help but look over at Chi Gui with a hint of smugness… only to see Chi Gui still looking down, engrossed in the worn novel in his hands.
Far from being nervous, he couldn’t even be bothered to pay a bit of attention to the stage…
You Junyao:…
Soon, the award presenter announced the best R&D prize!
The presenter held the card, raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise after looking at the nas, then smiled and looked at the audience.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone holding their breath, he finally spoke, “It’s not easy at all! Among the teams entering for our Madam Curie Award, a Huaxia na has finally appeared for the first ti!”
With that, he gestured toward Xue Mingqing and Shi Liyun and announced loudly, “Please welco the team led by Academician Xue and Academician Shi for securing the third place in the best research and developnt prize!!”
Beneath the stage, Xue Mingqing and Shi Liyun were thrilled. They stood up and swiftly walked to the stage amid the envious and jealous gazes of others.
After receiving the trophy from the presenter and delivering an emotional acceptance speech, they took their trophy and stepped down from the stage.
In the hall, aside from Bi Yu’s team and Chi Gui’s team, everyone else couldn’t help looking at the trophy in Shi Liyun’s hands and offered their congratulations.
Shi Liyun smiled modestly and, after sitting down, noticed Chi Gui hadn’t raised his head and couldn’t help but say with a smile, “Professor Chi, it’s truly thrilling to go up on stage to accept an award! My heart is still pounding! I really hope you get to experience it too!”
Hearing this, Chi Gui finally lifted his head and glanced indifferently at the trophy in her arms, saying, “Thank you for your concern. It will soon be our team’s turn to go up.”
Shi Liyun smiled, “This award is not like so minor dostic prizes; it’s very difficult to win.”
Chi Gui replied, “It’s okay, not too difficult.”
Hearing this, You Junyao, Wen Yan, and Xue Mingqing all let out a soft scoff.
Was he still addicted to talking big?
Shi Liyun was about to say sothing else but then heard the presenter on stage announce the next recipient: “The second place in the best research and developnt prize goes to—”
