Chapter 257 Rong Feiyang and his group were questioned!
Looking back, I saw that the person who was speaking was a young man in his thirties who looked like an assistant to a leader in his fifties.
Then, before Lu Chiyu and the others could speak, the leader in his fifties said with an uncomfortable smile:
"Haha, Comrade Lu Chiyu, although Xiao He's words may sound a bit harsh, they are true.
Everyone knows that there is a huge gap in national strength between our Red Country and Country B. If we provoke Country B so radically at this time, it will only lead them to launch a war against us and cause great suffering to the people of the Red Country.
Therefore, those of you who advocate developing Sea C and confronting Country B head-on in order to gain merit are extremely selfish. If Country B really attacks our Red Country this time, you will be sinners of the nation."
After hearing these words, Lu Chiyu was fine, but Huang Ze and the others' faces changed drastically.
They were standing outside the conference room at this moment, and many participants looked over here when they heard this.
Seeing the shameful expressions on Huang Ze and the others' faces, the assistant Xiao He even smugly echoed:
"Leader Wang is right. In my opinion, those of you who have been detained by Country B for so many years are actually not trustworthy at all.
"After being in the hands of Country B for so many years, who knows if you have been bribed by Country B? You deliberately returned to China this time to instigate us to confront Country B, and then let Country B find a reason to start a war against our Red Country. You are traitors."
Hearing them being called traitors, Huang Ze and others finally couldn't stand it anymore. They never expected that after trying everything to return to their country, one day they would be suspected of having been bought by country B.
Seeing more and more people around them secretly pointing fingers at them, Zhou Ming said with red eyes: "You need to have evidence when you speak. You have to produce evidence when you say that we were bribed by Country B, otherwise this is a serious slander!"
"Oh, you're all in cahoots with Country B. It's not that easy to find evidence that you've been bribed.
You can prove your innocence, but you must hand over the core technology for extracting oil from the C Sea and then retire, never participating in any related projects again.
Otherwise, if you continue to stay in the research team, who knows if you are an undercover agent planted by Country B."
Someone else stood up and echoed, "That makes sense. You guys have been in Country B's hands for so many years, and we in Country Red really don't dare trust you anymore. If you understand the greater good, just voluntarily withdraw from the scientific research team and don't make things difficult for everyone else."
"Yes, yes..."
More than a dozen people followed suit and echoed these words.
Leader Wang was secretly satisfied when he saw the expressions on Huang Ze and the others' faces.
That's right, he and his assistant Xiao He deliberately humiliated Lu Chiyu and the others here in public. The purpose was to complete the task assigned by the organization, to create a gap and opinions between Lu Chiyu and the others towards Hongguo, and to alienate their relationship with Hongguo.
Afterwards, their people secretly contacted them again to see if they could win them over to their side, but they couldn't, at least they couldn't let them continue to work for the Red Country.
Otherwise, if they really help the Red Country develop the C Sea, they will suffer a severe blow.
Rong Feiyang also stood beside Lu Chiyu. Leader Wang and Xiao He's words were not only about suspicion towards Huang Ze and the others, but more about them being directed at them and their daughter.
The other party suspected that he had been bribed by country B, and that Lu Chiyu was also influenced by him and was now selling out his country!
He was about to stand up and refute, but Lu Chiyu beside him laughed first and said, "Leader Wang, do you dare to say these words again in front of Minister Shen?
There will be a meeting later. If you have any opinions, feel free to raise them at the meeting. Why are you shouting here before the meeting even starts? Are you trying to show off your voices?
The reason why Lu Chiyu hadn't said anything just now was intentional. She and Minister Shen had been trying to catch the big fish from that year recently. Now that Leader Wang had jumped out, she naturally wanted to watch the whole show and see who were on their side.
She believed that Minister Shen's people must be watching everything that happened here in secret.
Hearing Lu Chiyu's words, Cheng Ran laughed: "My junior sister is right. What are you guys yelling about here? If you have any opinions, just discuss them in the meeting and then we can decide by voting. What's the point of yelling here? You look like fighting cocks."
"You..." These words made Leader Wang and the others angry.
At this time, Minister Shen's voice came from behind them: "Lao Wang, are you bringing these people to fight me?"
Although Minister Shen's tone sounded calm, it contained a chilling aura, which made the people who had just helped Leader Wang speak feel uneasy.
Leader Wang was also a little panicked at the moment, but with so many people looking at him, he still forced himself to pretend to be righteous and said, "Minister Shen, what you said is serious. I am just worried about the future of our Red Country.
The gap in strength between us and Country B is obvious to all. This time, we really shouldn't have overestimated our capabilities and forcibly developed Sea C to monopolize its oil.
You know, oil resources are indeed tempting, but if this makes our Red Country a global target, it will be a loss.
I don't want to say much to you, Minister Shen, but those who instigated you must be taught a lesson.
Without these people's instigation, perhaps Minister Shen wouldn't have made such a radical decision." At the end, his tone was filled with a hint of dissatisfaction with Minister Shen.
"So you think I'm a three-year-old child whose decisions can be easily influenced by others?"
"I...I didn't mean that." Leader Wang was a little panicked when asked, but then he quickly calmed down: "Minister Shen, why do you have to say that? I'm just too anxious that you are going to completely break with Country B this time.
You have to know that if the two countries really fight, our Red Country has no chance of winning. We can't let the Red Country fall into war just for a little oil."
"So you're trying to boost their morale and destroy your own prestige?"
Hearing Minister Shen's still cold tone, Leader Wang couldn't help but feel angry. He hated this tone of Minister Shen who always suppressed him the most. It made him feel that the other party did not take him seriously.
So he said with a forced smile: "What are you talking about, Minister Shen? I am just telling the truth. If the main force of the navy of Country B, the strongest country on Blue Planet, reaches Sea C, can our backward navy still resist?
Minister Shen, are you still worthy of being the leader of the Red Country, as you are causing great suffering to the people of the Red Country for a little oil?
This actually reached the level of changing the leadership. The whole place fell silent as soon as these words were spoken.
Minister Shen was not easy to respond to this, so Lu Chiyu finally couldn't help but interrupt: "So, Leader Wang, you think that Country B is omnipotent, and if they want something from our Red Country, we should give it to them, right?
You must know that greed has no end. Once we make the first concession on the C Sea issue and the C Sea oil, then our Red Country may fall into the second Asia-Central region in the future."
After Lu Chiyu finished speaking, the whole place became even quieter.
Many people who had been misled by Wang and his team into thinking that the Red Country should make concessions on the C Sea issue were now sweating coldly.
At this moment, an urgent report came from the staff around Minister Shen.
