Minister Liu smiled bitterly and said, "The point is, they originally planned to challenge you with five people, but you took the initiative to fight ten people alone. I know you are good at martial arts, but this is not a duel, this is a competition of medical skills. How can you win?"
"Who says I can't win?"
Tang Xiaobao laughed and said, "Hasn't the competition even started yet? Besides, if I lose, it's just me being humiliated, but if I win, Huaxia Chinese Medicine will have a chance to rise. Is this deal still worth it?"
Minister Liu was stunned, still somewhat puzzled. "But the Nobel Prize is very important to us. You could easily win it. Why refuse it?"
"Because I want fairness and justice." Tang Xiaobao said sternly, "I won't accept food given out of pity!"
Minister Liu was at a loss for words, but he could do nothing about it.
"It seems that nothing I say will help."
"So, you don't have to say anything."
Minister Liu sighed. "There are a lot of reporters outside. Paul Karl will definitely disclose the details of today's meeting in front of the reporters to build momentum. Moreover, the reporters outside will also interview you and me soon. How will you respond?"
"Just tell it the truth."
Tang Xiaobao shrugged indifferently.
Minister Liu guessed right.
At this time, Paul Carr was being interviewed by various reporters outside the manor.
These reporters are not only from the local area, some of them have come from abroad.
"Mr. Paul Karl, what do you want to do with Tang Xiaobao?"
"Yes, I'm here on behalf of the Nobel Prize Selection Committee to inform him that he has a good chance of winning the Nobel Prize in Medicine this year. However, unfortunately, he refused to accept the award."
"Why?"
"Why? Oh, I don't know, but he did refuse."
Paul Karl shrugged. "However, there is one thing I'd like to convey to the world through all of you media friends. Tang Xiaobao has accepted an invitation and will travel to Sweden on Christmas Day to accept a challenge from a leading Western medicine expert from around the world. This is an opportunity for Chinese and Western medicine to exchange ideas, as well as a competition. Also, we originally planned to find five leading Western medicine experts to compete with him, but he's willing to take on ten alone. We hope we can find ten. Oh, he also said that if he loses, he'll donate $10 billion to the Nobel Foundation and never practice medicine again, acknowledging that Western medicine is superior."
He even started laughing.
But the faces of the media reporters all changed drastically.
One against ten?
One person competes with ten Western medicine authorities from around the world in medical skills?
Isn’t this too absurd?
how so?
"Mr. Paul Carr, do you think this is fair?"
Paul Karl said: “I’m sorry, this is what Tang Xiaobao asked for himself.”
"To use one person's strength to fight against the world's authority in Western medicine, what is the meaning of such a competition? What can it prove?"
"What if you lose?"
"If he wins, it will naturally prove that Chinese medicine is more powerful."
…
"The Shenlong Regeneration Pills developed by Tang Xiaobao have already extended the lives of hundreds of millions of patients. This is unprecedented in human medical history. It's only natural that he received the Nobel Prize in Medicine. Mr. Paul Karl, don't you agree?"
"Did you make a requirement for him to participate in the competition in order to win the prize?"
"You are wrong. All Chinese people will protest."
"Awards and competitions are two different things. How can they be mixed up?"
"You are blackmailing me."
"Chinese people have rarely been selected in the Nobel Prize selection process. You are biased."
Paul Carr was surrounded by a group of reporters and asked all kinds of questions.
He frowned, perhaps not expecting Tang Xiaobao to be so popular in China. So, he said, "Sorry, everyone, the interview ends here. I have to catch a flight back home. Sorry, please make way."
But no one moved aside.
Various questions kept coming up.
Paul Carr broke through the crowd, got into a car on the side, started the car, and quickly left the scene.
As soon as he left, a group of reporters surrounded Liu Yan.
“Secretary Liu, you are from the Ministry of Health, and you were here just now. Is what Paul Karl said true?”
A reporter asked.
Liu Yan was feeling depressed. Upon hearing this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes."
"Then why did Tang Xiaobao agree to this competition?"
"Because he's too arrogant."
"So it sounds like you don't think Tang Xiaobao can win?"
"It's not that I'm not optimistic, it's simply impossible."
"Do you really not think highly of me?" Suddenly, Tang Xiaobao came to the gate of the manor and happened to hear Liu Yan's words. He asked lightly.
Liu Yan said subconsciously: "That's right—"
He suddenly noticed Tang Xiaobao and Minister Liu, especially the latter, who had a gloomy expression and was glaring at him fiercely. He immediately shut up and said, "If you have any questions, please interview Mr. Tang himself."
Everyone also noticed Tang Xiaobao and Minister Liu, and rushed over to surround them.
"Mr. Tang, I heard that you accepted the invitation and will compete with them in medical skills?"
"Mr. Tang, am I really refusing to accept the Nobel Prize in Medicine?"
"Why would you do that?"
"Minister Liu, what is your Ministry of Health's opinion?"
"That's the Nobel Prize in Medicine. Why would you refuse it?"
All kinds of problems came to my mind at once.
Minister Liu stepped forward, raised his hands, and said, "Dear friends from the media, please be quiet."
