Chapter 1078: A Guilty Heart
Seeing their reaction, the person leading the way quickly smiled and explained, "Don't be nervous. These are important foreign guests visiting. Seeing them in the VIP room is never as impressive as seeing them in person. Some people prefer to keep a low profile, and others are in a hurry. If you don't want to run into them, let's go this way."
Gu Yin shook her head: "It's okay, everyone can just look at their own things. I also want to hear what these people have to say."
Before we could finish speaking, the elevator doors opened.
Upon seeing Gu Yin and her group, the leader was taken aback. He knew that these foreign guests were accompanied by mercenaries, and he was caught in a dilemma, unable to advance or retreat.
Seeing his predicament, Gu Yin greeted him with a smile: "We've run into each other again, Chief. What brings you here?"
Upon hearing this, the commander did not step forward, but replied with a smile, "I was showing the foreign guests the equipment, I didn't expect you to be here now, well, how about I go first..."
"Isn't this Ms. Zhou Guyin?! I never expected to run into you here! In your Chinese terms, it's fate!" A broken Mandarin voice came over.
The foreign guest next to the leader quickly bypassed him and walked directly towards Gu Yin, extending his hand with slight excitement.
Gu Yin looked at the young man in front of her, dressed in a white robe and wearing a white headscarf, and smiled as she extended her hand: "Do you know me?"
I saw him online in my past life. He was a prince from an oil-producing country. He was quite young and seemed to still be in school, but he was very spoiled. He even became popular online for a while.
"You're so famous!! I know you!! You're famous at our school, no, you're famous all over the world! I saw you before at the Swiss Grand Ceremony, but you were too busy, so I didn't want to bother you! What great luck today! I never expected to see you here!!"
"Oh my! Ms. Zhou is here too! Your secrecy work is really strict! I've been wanting to talk to Ms. Zhou for a while, but you always said she was in seclusion for research, so I never had a chance! Now that I've seen her here, we must have a good chat!"
Gu Yin immediately recognized that these were foreign guests from the United States.
"I have indeed been very busy. Today is a major event for our country, so I took some time out to come here. We'll find another time to have a proper chat when we have the chance."
"There's no time like the present, let's do it today! You happen to be free, and I also have some things I need to discuss with you personally! It's too crowded here, shall we go upstairs?"
As he spoke, he extended his hand in invitation, a gesture that was somewhat forceful.
"Major General, you are polite, but not enough! Didn't you see I was chatting with Ms. Zhou? Besides, everyone wants to chat with Ms. Zhou. What do you mean by calling her away? And before you ask her to leave, shouldn't you have asked for her opinion? She's here despite her busy schedule, she must be here to see the exhibition. Your behavior is impolite!"
After the young man finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Gu Yin: "Do you think what I said is right?"
It looked like he was begging for praise!
Gu Yin chuckled: "General, it is indeed as the prince said. I need to visit these exhibits, so I'm afraid I won't have time to go up for tea with you. Please forgive me."
After saying that, he looked at the leader and said, "Why don't we all go and take a look together? It'll be more lively with more people."
When the leader heard her say that, he immediately agreed: "Okay, let's go together. It'll be good to hear the experts' opinions too."
He then invited everyone to come forward for a tour, while secretly issuing a notification to the security personnel to pay close attention to this area.
Gu Yin noticed his actions but didn't pay them any mind. She looked at the prince who was looking at her expectantly and asked, "Together?"
"OK! No problem! It's my honor!" He said, pressing the major general's hand down and squeezing next to Gu Yin, extremely excited.
Gu Yin, recalling the numerous orders this country placed in her previous life, asked curiously, "You didn't bring many exhibits this time. I heard you're looking to buy equipment?"
"Oh!! This matter!! It's not my responsibility, I just came along to see what it's like! It's our minister's responsibility! Minister, Minister! Ms. Zhou has a question for you!"
Gu Yin: "..." Absolutely not! She was just curious!
"I'm here, Your Highness. Mind your manners! This is abroad!"
Gu Yingang initially thought the other person was a bodyguard; with that imposing physique, he truly lived up to his reputation as a minister in the military!
"Hello Ms. Zhou, I am the Minister of the Oil Army. We are here today to purchase equipment."
"Is there anyone you have your eye on, Minister?"
"It's definitely from our country! Is there even a question? Looking at the whole world, which country's military or civilian equipment can compare to ours? Minister, I believe that at this exhibition, you won't leave empty-handed with anything from our country!"
After speaking, the American man glanced contemptuously at the Chinese leader.
Gu Yin raised her eyebrows. The big winner of this exhibition was China.
The minister smiled and said, "Let's take a look first. Our demand is quite large. If it's suitable, we will definitely make the purchase. General, why don't you take us to see it again? What we see in the documents is not as good as seeing it in person."
The commander nodded upon hearing this: "Let's go, take a look. This is the C919 that everyone has been looking forward to. We've updated everything here, and it fully meets international standards. Passenger capacity..."
"Even if it meets national standards, your thing can't be airworthy and put into use yet, right? What's the point of buying it now? It's useless, isn't it? It's not as good as our country's two established companies, like Poker, which have guarantees for everything!"
"It hasn't been approved yet, but it's expected to be delivered in 2022. Currently, the C919 is only suitable for domestic flights. Even if you, Major General, wanted to buy it, we wouldn't dare to deliver it, hahaha. I believe you and the entrepreneurs around you naturally understand the significance of the C919's participation in the exhibition. Alright, let's go take a look at the fighter jets."
"Sir, it's time for the air show, and the fighter jets are already preparing," someone reported as they approached.
The leader glanced at the time and nodded: "Proceed as planned."
"yes!"
After everyone left, the leader looked at Gu Yin: "Shall we go upstairs to watch?"
Gu Yin nodded: "Okay, let's go together then."
From the moment they came down to the viewing platform, the mercenaries remained completely still and showed no unusual behavior, but Gu Yin did not let her guard down.
The captain and Chi Xing also stayed by Gu Yin's side at all times.
The fighter jets' aerial display was spectacular, and the minister from the oil-producing country expressed his desire to go down and see for himself. The leader arranged for someone to accompany him, and Gu Yin also planned to visit the equipment in the other exhibition halls.
"Ms. Zhou! May I travel with you?!"
It was just a matter of going to the exhibition together, so Gu Yin didn't refuse: "Sure, Prince."
What's interesting is that the leaders from the United States left, leaving behind a few minor officials, but the mercenaries stayed behind.
Gu Yin looked at them: "...Aren't you going to check the equipment?"
The man smiled and said, "Following you might bring a surprise, Ms. Zhou. Our major general is over there, shall we go?"
Gu Yin twitched the corners of her mouth and went to see the exhibition halls of several advanced countries. Generally speaking, her own country was indeed lagging behind, but its speed was very fast. What others had been researching for hundreds of years, her own people had caught up in just a few years. What those big countries were afraid of was not China's weapons and equipment, but China's speed!
With this speed, catching up with them and even surpassing them is only a matter of time!
China's equipment has been improving at an astonishing rate, and now with Gu Yin's support, it will definitely surpass them in less than three years!
This is what these major powers are worried about!
The purpose of this trip was ostensibly for the exhibition, but in reality, it was to find an opportunity to meet Gu Yin. I never expected her to appear at the exhibition!
They tacitly followed Gu Yin, wandering around here and there.
Gu Yin had finished her sightseeing and planned to talk to Mr. Jin about the drones when she got back.
