Lu Yuan, who had just felt a sliver of pity for Zhao Kangming, couldn't help but sneer when he saw the other party's smug expression.
"Mr. Zhao has only just come to the preliminary selection, what are you so happy about? Even if I get sixty, it's not a big deal. As long as I pass the preliminary selection, I can continue to fight with you."
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Zhao Kangming burst into laughter.
"Alright, let's see if you can hold on until the end. I hope you don't lose too badly."
Lu Yuan glanced at the other person, not wanting to waste any more breath on them.
"Okay, since that's what you think, then I hope you won't cry when the time comes. Let's wait and see."
Seeing that Lu Yuan was no longer paying attention to him, Zhao Kangming stood aside and watched with interest as Lu Yuan took out his product next.
Shi Quan saw Lu Yuan nod at him, so he took out the things he had prepared beforehand from a box next to him. The box contained three kinds of products. As long as two of the products passed the test, he could pass the preliminary selection.
So Shi Quan glanced at the three products in the box, picked out two of them, and placed them on the table.
When everyone saw Lu Yuan's two products, they were all stunned for a moment, and then they all burst into laughter.
"This product doesn't even have special protective packaging; it's just taken out of the box directly, which means it's still using the old technology."
"That's right, it seems to be an old technique. It's good enough if this kind of thing can even pass the initial selection. It's ridiculous to think it can pass the initial selection."
"Hey, stop making fun of him. Maybe Lu Yuan's Julong Technology Company was a pretty good company before the apocalypse, it's just that the technology is a bit outdated."
Lu Yuan didn't care at all about the ridicule from the crowd. He had the two products placed in two separate testing instruments beforehand.
But Cao Kun, standing next to Lu Yuan, showed a serious expression and nudged Lu Yuan lightly with his elbow.
"Young man, no offense, but you haven't even done basic packaging protection. Are you really confident you can win this competition?"
Seeing that Cao Kun also seemed somewhat distrustful of Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan smiled slightly and pointed to the batteries on the distant competition field.
"If you don't believe me, Mr. Cao, just wait a while and I'll tell you how my product is."
Cao Kun sighed. This young man who had traveled a long way truly had the composure to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed before him.
But ultimately, this competition is all about results. No matter how determined you are, you'll still lose if you don't achieve good results.
More importantly, Lu Yuan not only lost the game but also his reputation, and he will also lose his sports car skills to Zhao Kangming.
Although Cao Kun wasn't particularly interested in Lu Yuan's sports car, he had seen reports that Lu Yuan's car was incredibly advanced, surpassing the technology of their time.
If Lu Yuan had switched from making batteries to making sports cars, his technology in that area would probably be far superior to that of his competitors.
But Lu Yuan chose to work in the battery industry, which meant he had to compete with a market that wasn't very large to begin with.
Seeing this scene, Cao Kun couldn't help but sigh, secretly hoping that Lu Yuan would give him a very eye-catching performance.
Before long, Shi Quanqing had checked the two batteries on the field and nodded slightly to the referee after making sure they were correct.
"We are ready."
The referee immediately nodded, and his assistant gently pressed the start button.
With a hissing sound, the number on the big screen froze at two thousand.
As time went on, the number didn't move at all, remaining at two thousand, and the other numbers didn't change at all either, as if the display screen was broken.
As time went on, the breathing of the people on site became heavier and heavier. They had not expected that there was such stable equipment that could maintain no movement for five consecutive minutes.
Finally, Zhao Kangming, who had been standing to the side, couldn't take it anymore. He pointed to the numbers displayed on the computer screen and said...
"I suspect there's something wrong with the computer screen, and I request a replacement."
As soon as he finished speaking, the other members of the union also spoke up.
“That’s right. No product could come up and not move at all. None of the products here could possibly produce such a result.”
"Yes, yes, ask him to retest it. I suspect there's something wrong with the display screen."
"A retest is necessary; we must abide by the rules of the competition."
Upon hearing this, the people around turned around and, after some inquiries, discovered that it was trouble caused by their own people in the eastern region.
After asking around, everyone realized that people from the eastern region were actually questioning the results of the participants in their own region.
"Ha, this is hilarious. We were just praising their unity, and now internal strife has surfaced. It's ridiculous."
"Sigh, these people just can't stand to see their own people doing well. Little do they know that if one company in a region can win first place in this competition, it will bring great benefits to the entire region."
"This is probably just some of the personal problems of inferior people. They can't talk things out properly and always like to engage in all sorts of conspiracies. No wonder they can't do a good job with technology."
The crowd spoke sarcastically, and the members of the joint guild in the competition area became increasingly smug.
Seeing that Lu Yuan remained silent, they assumed that he must have been frightened.
