It was drizzling outside, and An Jingzhi was already eager to go home.
After getting his graduation certificate, he hurriedly bought a plane ticket and returned to the single apartment he rented to pack his luggage.
The original owner was a pilot who was sent abroad for training.
The country had just been founded and had no pilots at all, and its flying skills were not good. It had to pay a huge price to allow this group of reserve pilots to come to the United States to participate in flight technology training.
The training ended two years ago.
When leaving, the original owner backed off. He was unwilling to return to that backward country. His original firm intention was slowly corroded by the environment here.
All pilots' lives are short. Even if they receive adequate training here, the technology back home cannot keep up and the probability of the plane crashing is as high as 50%.
Having to frequently carry out very dangerous missions, the mortality rate rises again to 80%.
The disparity in the number of machines between the enemy and us was huge. They were flying obsolete planes to fight against the enemy. Basically, the death rate of every mission was over 95%.
Those pilots who survived would not live long either. The country was just established and there were tigers and wolves everywhere. They had to rely on force to fight for their dignity.
There are always more missions to be completed. In an era where technology cannot keep up, we can only fill the gap with human lives, even if they are very valuable pilots.
The original owner knew that he would not live long after returning and might die during a mission, so he suddenly backed off.
Became a damned traitor.
In order to send them out to learn flying skills, the country paid a lot of price, making the already impoverished country even poorer.
Even many people can only eat three-quarters full every day, but they are still hoping that the country will get better and better.
The original owner got this precious spot and learned enough flying skills here, but in the end he backed down. He betrayed the country's efforts for him and his comrades and chose to stay in the United States.
The original owner's family were all steel factory workers. His son studied well and was admitted to university. Later, he became a soldier and became a pilot. This was originally a very proud thing.
They were also selected by the country and sent abroad to develop their flying skills. The whole family was well-known among the people around them.
But because of the original owner's retreat, the family never raised their heads again.
The original owner was the only son in the family and the pride of the family, but now he has become their shame.
Even though no one blames them, they just can't get over the hurdle in their hearts.
The original owner's father was an eighth-level worker. After hearing the news that his son had deserted, he became absent-minded every day. A few years later, he was accidentally crushed to death by a machine.
His mother was heartbroken and eventually fell ill.
After returning to China, the original owner's comrades also carried out many difficult tasks. Just as the original owner had guessed, the lives of all the comrades were frozen in their youth.
The original owner never dared to return to his country in his life and lived like a stray dog abroad. After staying there for a while, he realized that life here was good, but it was not a place for people like him to live. He was just a person of the lowest class there, but he didn't dare to go back, and he had no money to go back.
Although he made a living by wandering, he was very lucky and lived until the beginning of the century. In the United States, he received increasingly good news about China and learned that they were even going to host the Olympic Games.
Finally, he died one winter with infinite regret, and his body was eaten by stray dogs.
When An Jingzhi came, it was too late. It was a month after the original owner refused to return to China. Even if he wanted to explain, no one would believe him. He could not clear himself of the charge of desertion by going back.
After much thought, he decided to stay. There must be a reason why the original owner stayed. If it wasn't because he was afraid of death, then he would have to find another way.
He then chose a university. Getting into the university was complicated, but he accumulated funds in the stock market and finally successfully knocked on the door of the university with US dollars.
He attended an internationally renowned university, where he took elective courses in mechanical manufacturing. In fact, he did not mainly want to learn the country's technology. After all, he had technology in his mind that was far more advanced than thousands of years ago.
In addition to providing a reasonable explanation for the original owner's behavior, this also allows me to understand the current level of the world's leading technology in this world.
He could complete the required credits in a few months, but if he performed so exceptionally well, it would definitely attract the attention of others, and it would not be easy for him to return home smoothly.
He chose to hide himself and completed his studies step by step, only revealing a little bit of his talent. It took him two years to complete the required credits and obtain a diploma.
Although this talent will attract attention, no one will pay too much attention to it, and he will have a better excuse after returning to China.
It can make the country believe that he is staying here to learn and that he has the ability to learn, so that he can bring out those technologies when the time comes.
Today is An Jingzhi's graduation day.
When he received his diploma, his teacher tried to persuade him to continue his studies.
He even promised to let An Jingzhi become his graduate student, but An Jingzhi refused without a second thought.
The other party didn't bother him any further, but felt a little sorry for his talent.
But fortunately, An Jingzhi did not behave too rebelliously, and no one had to have him.
A series of inspections are required when passing through customs to prevent people from smuggling national information. Customs inspections are more stringent for people like An Jingzhi who are not white.
After checking his books and luggage to make sure nothing was left out and that nothing could be taken through customs, An Jingzhi packed up all his belongings and rushed to the airport impatiently.
The flight was still six hours away, but he was eager to go home.
During this period, Chinese people suffered from discrimination in the United States. Here, discrimination and insults occurred every minute and every second.
The same was true in college. If An Jingzhi hadn't secretly tricked those white and black people who often tried to show off in front of him, he would probably be beaten black and blue every day.
Even a good student like him would be harassed like this, let alone others.
I packed my bags and walked out of the house when I suddenly ran into an acquaintance.
A sloppy white man walked up to An Jingzhi and said, "Huh? Are you going back to that poor, backward country of yours? Hahahaha, I don't know why you're studying mechanical manufacturing. Doesn't your country still rely on horse-drawn carriages?"
"Pride and ignorance are the greatest prejudices of mankind. Live well, Kenwright, and you will see the prosperity of my motherland." After saying this, An Jingzhi walked away with his suitcase and an expressionless face.
China's situation is very bad now. It has basically no status in the international arena. No matter how much it says, it is just a clown in front of others. Why bother explaining or arguing?
