Seeing Professor Li's change of attitude, the old man nodded with a smile, and then said to Secretary Xiao Liu:
"That's it! Professor Li will take the lead on this matter, and Xiao Liu, you lend a hand and coordinate with us as much as you can.
Last time, Comrade Lin Huowang gave us a big surprise.
The hundreds of millions of dollars earned have played a huge role in the country's economic development.
Moreover, when it comes to international relations, now that we have money in our pockets, our voices will naturally become louder.
You don’t have to care about other people’s faces, otherwise! They will block you here and there, and you will have no place to complain. "
The old man walked up to Professor Li with great emotion and shook his hand, saying, "Professor Li, you intellectuals are the guides for the younger generations and the beacon of the next generation.
So, you must work hard, don’t be afraid of failure, it’s okay to try and make mistakes.
No matter how poor our country is, we can still afford to pay the tuition for some experience.
The most important thing is that you must become more courageous after each setback and sum up your experience.
Don’t let the tuition fees go to waste, and don’t lose your self-confidence.
After all, we still owe something to your generation of intellectuals.
I know that many of you have complaints in your hearts.
But there is no other way! This country is so big, and we are in the early stages of development. We have nothing, and we have to create everything with our own hard-working hands.
Naturally, someone will suffer, just like us Marxists, who didn't put our heads in our belts and work hard to build a future for the entire country and the people?
We only talk about dedication and contribution, not harvest and reward.
This is what we do willingly, and this is our lifelong ideal and belief.
However, it is definitely not possible for us to hold you intellectuals, or the broader workers and peasants, to this standard.
Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, everyone has their own relatives, and everyone is greedy for pleasure and benefits.
What we need to do now is to make sure that our future generations do not have to talk about dedication and sacrifice. Everyone can naturally enjoy a happy socialist life and build their own ideal life through hard work and sweat. "
After this impassioned speech, the old man moved Professor Li to tears.
Professor Li immediately straightened his body and assured the old man: "Commander, I am also a glorious party member. When I joined the party, I also swore to fight for the realization of a communist society for my whole life.
As you once said, we are not afraid of war because we want to fight all the wars in our generation so that our descendants don't have to fight anymore.
Similarly, we are not afraid of dedication and hard work. We also want to lay a solid foundation for all of our generation and catch up with all the gaps with developed countries.
This way, our future generations won’t have to suffer as much as we did…”
…
Professor Li didn't know how he finally walked out of the red house.
Professor Wu, Professor Chang and others who were waiting nervously in the office saw Professor Li coming back with an enthusiastic look on his face, and they immediately went up to him and started asking questions.
"Lao Li, have you met the chief? What did he say?"
"I say, Lao Li, judging from your attitude, the commander didn't... didn't punish us?"
"Hurry up and talk! Lao Li, tell me what happened? Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
…
Professor Li dug up all the information he had previously obtained about silver futures.
Then quickly one by one, mark them, find the eigenvalues and common points...
Others were confused and wondered if Professor Li had been stimulated by something.
"What's going on? Could it be that the punishment from above is too severe and Lao Li has gone insane?"
"It's hard to say! When people are particularly stimulated, their behavior will definitely become abnormal."
"But, look, all the information Lao Li found is related to silver futures. But, all our stocks have been sold?
Moreover, the subsequent prices also proved that it was fortunate that we ran fast, otherwise we would have lost everything.
Look, the price of silver futures has dropped to $5.6 per ounce now.”
“In my opinion, this is far from the limit of silver’s price decline. I checked a lot of information and found that the lowest price of silver a few years ago was only two dollars per ounce.
It’s less than half of the current price, so the price of silver will continue to drop, and may even drop to $1!”
…
Seeing Professor Li's abnormal behavior, everyone became worried and curious.
However, they did not dare to disturb Professor Li rashly again.
Half an hour later, Professor Li picked out a dozen newspapers and materials from a pile of information and placed them together. Then he let out a long sigh and leaned back in the chair next to him.
"Let's take a look! Everyone come over here and take a look at these materials to see if you can find any problems."
Seeing that everyone was surrounding him, Professor Li smiled easily and pointed to the stack of organized and marked materials.
"Lao Li, you've learned to keep people in suspense!"
"It seems that you are not crazy, but have made a great harvest!"
"Quick! Everyone, come and have a look. I think... Lao Li has made a new discovery. We are going to survive."
"That's great! I lost more than 20 million US dollars in silver. I can't wait to make up for it."
