96: Return to China and give a great gift! From Black and White

Chapter 96: Returning Home, Presenting a Grand Gift! A Speech from the black and white demons!

Within Xia Academy of Sciences.

Originally, in the Dean's office, after finishing numerous tasks, the two of them were taking advantage of this free time to leisurely drink tea and chat.

On the chessboard, Zheng Lixing, as expected, still lost nine out of ten games.

At this moment, he was holding a chess piece, hesitating: "Play this... No, playing that doesn't seem right either."

"Where should I play?"

With every move, he would scratch his head for a long time.

Zhang Yuli glanced at him: "Old Zheng, you've been hesitating for five minutes on this move. Are you going to play or not?"

"Look, you're impatient again," Zheng Lixing said, feigning surprise. "Playing chess is about leisure and enjoyment. How can you be impatient?"

After saying that, he returned to a thoughtful and hesitant expression.

Zhang Yuli shook his head helplessly. He was even considering whether to intentionally lose one or two games later.

After all, as the famous bad chess player of the Xia Academy of Sciences, Zheng Lixing would genuinely get angry if he lost too much. Although he wouldn't go as far as 'Liu Qi, the Chess Sage of the Han Dynasty,' he would at least be too angry to eat.

Just then, a phone rang.

"It's me."

Zhang Yuli picked up the phone, listening to the news coming from it, and the excitement in his brows grew more intense.

Two minutes later.

He hung up the phone, completely stunned, as if in a daze.

"Old Zhang, what happened? What could make you so shocked?" Zheng Lixing put down his chess piece, asking with great curiosity.

For Zhang Yuli, the Dean of the Xia Academy of Sciences, to show such an expression, the news must be extraordinary.

Hearing this.

Zhang Yuli excitedly waved his fists, his voice even containing a roar: "Old Zheng, a huge piece of good news!"

"All our J-20 prototypes have been built and have completed all initial testing procedures."

"The 611 Institute has submitted the final procedures for the maiden flight test!"

The final procedure for a prototype in the verification stage is, without a doubt, its first flight off the ground.

Only by completing this can it truly be declared a successful development.

"It's already completed?" Zheng Lixing's eyes widened.

Although the J-20 project had already entered its late-stage development before acquiring the complete F22 technology, how could the prototypes be completed in less than two months?

This was too fast; technological breakthroughs were simpler than eating.

"Good, good, good, that's great," Zheng Lixing said several 'good's.

What did a maiden flight mean?

A successful maiden flight meant that the J-20's service entry had entered a countdown.

In other words, Da Xia would truly possess a fifth-generation fighter jet.

Zheng Lixing suddenly thought of something, his eyes narrowing: "Old Zhang, it seems the gift we prepared for the Mysterious Organization is not just that 'National Student Subsidy.'"

"You mean?"

"That's right, this J-20 maiden flight can also be a surprise. We might as well make the event grander."

After all, the complete F22 technology was provided by the 'Mysterious Organization.' Announcing the successful maiden flight of Da Xia's fifth-generation fighter at that time would be a significant return gift, wouldn't it?

Hearing this, Zhang Yuli's mind cleared: "You're right, this maiden flight should be well prepared."

"We must make sure the 'Mysterious Organization' feels the immense enthusiasm from our Da Xia side."

As for the congratulatory gift two months later, that was not a concern. They had prepared more than just this one gift for Da Xia's over one billion people.

Announcing the successful maiden flight of the J-20 in advance was not out of the question.

"In addition, that 'National Student Subsidy Program' can also be launched."

Zhang Yuli pondered for a moment, took a sip of tea, and said: "We need to try our best to launch this program across all provinces nationwide within this week."

"Hmm, I heard the higher-ups have already given all the instructions," Zheng Lixing said with a hearty laugh, nodding his head.

Thanks to the experience from Northwest Province last time, the progress of this plan seemed effortless.

Da Xia was ready, awaiting the visit from the Mysterious Organization at any time.

On the other side.

Eagle Country, around eleven at night.

Lu Ze finally drove back to Livermore, dropped Lucy off at her home, and by the time he returned to his own dorm, it was almost midnight.

After washing up, he lay in bed, murmuring to himself: "I'll wait until I return home to give this 'future smartphone' technology to Da Xia."

"Otherwise, there might not be enough time."

Firstly, Lu Ze considered that Da Xia, after just receiving the C-5M technology, would need a few days to arrange various research and development plans.

Secondly, and most importantly, he was returning home in two days. At that time, he would have plenty of time to contact them, so there was no need to rush.

Now he had to properly pack his luggage and various items. Of course, the same went for Lucy. Heaven knew what she would bring?

He had told her many times that it was still summer in Da Xia, yet she still wanted to bring coats and padded jackets?

And she said, with a righteous look, hands on her hips and chest puffed out: "I remember your Northwest Province is a plateau. Isn't Da Xia's plateau very cold?"

"Don't you know that for every hundred meters in altitude, the temperature drops by 0.6 degrees Celsius? Thousands of meters means tens of degrees Celsius. Isn't it just right for me to bring a padded jacket?"

Lu Ze was dumbfounded hearing that.

This silly girl must have confused Da Xia's Loess Plateau with the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, otherwise, it wouldn't be this absurd.

Lu Ze could only helplessly throw out the useless items in her luggage, such as 'swimsuits' and 'sunglasses,' one by one.

Was there a sea in Northwest Province?

Bringing such things to Northwest Province, what was the difference from Mongolia establishing a navy?

Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, it was Saturday.

Today was the day the LLNL Laboratory gave its intern researchers summer vacation.

Around nine in the morning.

San Francisco International Airport, the second largest airport in California, sees hundreds of flights taking off and landing every day.

The roaring sound of aircraft engines was the main theme here.

Lu Ze was waiting in the departure hall for boarding. The closer it got to his return home, the more excited he became.

However, he looked at the ticket in his hand, and the corner of his mouth twitched helplessly.

"Lucy, you upgraded my seat?"

When he picked up his ticket, he found that Da Xia should have booked an economy class for publicly funded international students, but the ticket he received was for first class.

The price difference was several times, so it must have been Lucy who took the initiative to upgrade his seat.

"Yes, give me your phone. I'll pay for the upgrade."

Lucy mumbled this sleepily.

Looking at the small head resting on his shoulder, feigning sleep, Lu Ze pinched her cheek.

"Didn't you rest well last night?"

"Mm." Lucy nodded: "There's a time difference of more than ten hours between Eagle Country and Da Xia, so I didn't sleep much last night."

"That's right, I need to adjust to the time difference first," Lu Ze suddenly realized.

Even though it was nine in the morning in Eagle Country, it was around ten at night in Da Xia.

Their journey required them to fly to Yanjing first, then transfer from Yanjing to Northwest Province. The flight time alone would be about thirteen hours, and by then, it would be daytime in Da Xia.

So, it was best to adjust to the time difference a day in advance and get some sleep on the plane.

Lu Ze patted her head: "You rest for a bit. I'll call you when it's time to board."

For his current physical condition, not resting for even a day or two was nothing.

At the same time.

As the two of them flew slowly towards Da Xia on the plane.

In Livermore, some seemingly 'insignificant' small events were occurring, like a 'pebble' thrown into the vast ocean of Eagle Country, barely causing a ripple.

It was still the fountain square in the city center.

"Parker, is everything ready?" Buller asked his companion beside him.

Parker nodded, replying: "I've already posted some messages in several nearby small towns and on the San Francisco online forum."

"I imagine it should have attracted quite a bit of attention."

After speaking, he handed over a piece of paper covered with dense text.

"Good, then it's time for us to act," Buller's eyes showed a hint of determination.

He and Parker had discussed for a long time and finally decided to adopt this method of 'propaganda.'

After all, trying to organize armed revolutionary forces? The time was not yet ripe. Facing the formidable Eagle Country would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

So, they needed to use all the common people, first to make them all clearly see who their 'enemy' was and what the true face of the corrupt Eagle Country was.

From Livermore to San Francisco, then to Los Angeles, and finally to New York and Washington.

Only when more and more common people discovered the truth would they possess the true power to change everything. Conversely, if they tried to resist with mere force, it would only be a blind sacrifice.

Today was Saturday, the busiest day in this small town.

A message, using the most concise and ordinary words, attracted an endless stream of people, forcing them to involuntarily stop their steps.

A young man with black skin, dressed in rags, shouted excitedly.

"We, Eagle Country, are the world's number one superpower. We possess the world's leading GDP and military strength."

"Our military might extends to Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Europe, as if the entire planet is under our control."

This statement received approval from many people.

Since the 1990s, it had definitively declared the birth of a true superpower on this planet.

Such complimentary speeches had been very popular over the past two decades, so people didn't take them to heart.

However, the words that followed were clearly not what they had expected.

"We learn the crappiest education, we need high tuition fees and loans to go to school, we spend the highest medical expenses in the world, yet our average life expectancy is lower than Da Xia's."

"We are hailed as the world's number one superpower, but ordinary people can't even afford to eat in a restaurant. What is the root cause of all this?"

"In last year's subprime mortgage crisis, Lehman Brothers collapsed with trillions of usd in debt. They created the financial crisis, making us unemployed, leaving us without jobs."

"They are the ones who made our lives difficult, yet every year the government can spend trillions of usd to bail out those 'vampires' on Wall Street, instead of using that money on us ordinary people. Is this right?"

Suddenly.

Some people who were already moved couldn't help but exclaim.

"No, this is not right."
