"I'm not questioning Leader Zhou's decision. It's just that right now, at this critical juncture in the negotiations, it would be helpful to identify the machine tool's problems sooner and find a solution, rather than sitting here doing nothing. Even two days is crucial at this moment."
Many people agree with this.
"That's right. At such a critical moment, we should race against time instead of waiting here and wasting time."
"Well, who says it's not true? But we can't go against Leader Zhou's decision."
"That's not the case. We are also doing this for our country. At this time when negotiations are so tense, we cannot let things be delayed because of a leader's wrong decision."
"If you're afraid of the consequences, then I'll take the lead and we'll leave the factory together!"
I don’t know who said this, but all the experts got angry.
"Am I someone who's afraid of taking responsibility? Since we all joined this team, we've sacrificed too much of our own interests for the development of the country. If the higher-ups still blame me for this, I might as well leave!"
Zhou Mosheng has been keeping an eye on the expert group. If there is a commotion here, someone will report it to Zhou Mosheng immediately.
"This is normal. Someone wants to muddy the waters and stir up everyone's emotions. You should have someone keep an eye on them and take note of everyone's reactions and what they say."
Zhou Mosheng was not surprised at all and said calmly
Since he made this decision, he had guessed that this would happen. He was not afraid that they would make trouble, but that if they did not make trouble, some people would think they could fish in troubled waters.
Zhou Mosheng didn't go over until the atmosphere was almost right.
"What are you doing?"
"Leader Zhou, since you asked, I'll tell you. At this critical juncture in the negotiations, it's not a good idea to stop all work and leave us sitting idle just for the sake of a young man."
"Since I made this decision, I naturally have my own considerations. Besides, I also gave a deadline of two days."
"Two days may not seem like a long time, but it depends on the time. Now is the critical time for the negotiations. We should race against time. Two days may change a lot of things."
Zhou Mosheng looked at the person who was speaking, his eyebrows raised. "These machine tools have been abandoned for more than a day or two. Didn't we give you any time? We gave your expert group too much time. Have you made any progress?"
"Leader Zhou, it's not that we don't work hard. We have been working hard on research and want to repair the machine tools. It's just that the domestic technology level is limited, and we can't..."
"Of course I know that domestic technology is limited, but the senior leaders also said that even if the road ahead is difficult, we must overcome it and make the impossible possible. You really can't do it, but Comrade Li Miaomiao did it, making the impossible possible. So why can't I give her these two days?"
Zhou Mosheng's words left everyone speechless.
"But Leader Zhou, this might just be a coincidence."
"Recognizing others' abilities is a form of self-cultivation and virtue. As experts on the panel, you should understand this even more so that you have room for improvement. How could someone with no technical skills achieve this purely through luck? Why don't you have that kind of luck?"
Everyone's passion and resentment were dispelled and suppressed by Zhou Mosheng's few words.
"Besides, I asked you to stay here not just for this reason. When Comrade Li Miaomiao finds the answer, I will give you an explanation."
This was a bit harsh and made everyone more suspicious.
After coming out, Zhou Mosheng gave another order: "Closely observe the reactions of these experts. Since he failed to provoke everyone, I believe this person will make the next move."
The next morning, when everyone was eating in the cafeteria, someone suddenly rushed in excitedly.
"Leader Zhou, good news! Comrade Li Miaomiao has made a breakthrough. I believe we can complete the task within two days and confirm her suspicions."
"Okay, great!"
Zhou Mosheng slammed the table in joy, but suddenly remembered that they were in the cafeteria. He stopped talking and strode out of the cafeteria.
This scene was seen by everyone. The experts from the expert group were also dining here and their reactions were different.
"It seems our wait wasn't in vain this time. I've been trying to figure out Comrade Li Miaomiao's reaction and intentions. It seems like..."
"Like what?"
"I remember Comrade Li Miaomiao said that the damage to these two machine tools was not caused by normal means."
"What does this mean? Does it mean that someone among us has done something wrong?"
They are the expert group, usually responsible for the maintenance of the machine tools, and they are the only ones who can have exclusive access to the machine tools.
After hearing this, and thinking about Zhou Mosheng's reaction and decision, everyone began to have doubts in their hearts. Looking at the other members of the expert group, all of them were carrying certain things, and the atmosphere suddenly became silent.
"There will always be an answer. Didn't you hear what that comrade just said? Comrade Li Miaomiao has already found out something. By tomorrow, we will all have the answer."
After saying this, some people nodded, while others ate their meal in silence.
If they had been questioned before, they would definitely be very angry. It was nothing, but now the results are about to come out.
Here, Zhou Mosheng came out and came to Li Miaomiao's side.
"Comrade Li Miaomiao, I have already done what we agreed to do, so you must be extra careful today. If you have any plans, you must discuss them with me in advance and do not act on your own."
Zhou Mosheng knew Li Miaomiao's past and knew that she was a bold person who dared to do anything.
"Leader, don't worry, I will definitely cooperate with you."
Li Miaomiao said this, with a concrete situation in mind: "Now we have a suspect. It's impossible for him to do nothing in more than a day."
"We have locked on to several targets, but we can't confirm them yet. I even suspect that the problem is not just one person."
When Zhou Mosheng said this, his expression became somewhat solemn.
The expert group they had put together with great effort not only had problems now, but the problem might not be with just one person. To them, every expert was a valuable asset, and such speculation made him feel heavy-hearted.
"It's not impossible. Sometimes we are limited by our own thinking."
"It's still just speculation, there's no solid evidence, so let's wait and see the results. I hope my speculation is wrong."
Although Zhou Mosheng said this, his guess was not just a simple suspicion. He brought up the records of the time before and after the machine tool accident and identified several possible candidates.
