After listening to Pei Yang's interpretation, Dr. Sawada felt relieved and also developed a good impression of him.
"It's great that you think so. I wish you a safe return trip in advance."
Pei Yang smiled and nodded, "Dr. Zetian, there are not many people I admire in my life, and you are one of them. Before I leave, I would like to invite you to dinner as an apology for bothering you during this period of time. I hope you will do me the honor."
After some consideration, Dr. Sawada agreed to Pei Yang's invitation to dinner.
Pei Yang did not choose a famous local restaurant in Tokyo, but instead found a Chinese restaurant.
After entering the restaurant, Pei Yang closed the door and hung up a sign indicating that the restaurant was temporarily closed. Then, under Dr. Sawada's surprised gaze, he picked up his apron and tied it around his waist.
Fearing that Zetian might misunderstand, the translator hurriedly explained, "Mr. Pei has reserved the restaurant tonight and plans to personally cook a few hometown dishes for Dr. Zetian to taste."
Sawada suddenly realized and smiled with interest, "I'm looking forward to it."
…
"This sweet and sour pork is a favorite home-cooked dish of Fengcheng people. It is similar to tempura in Tokyo, but the taste and texture are slightly different."
After listening to the translation, Sawada picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and put it in his mouth.
"Mm, it's delicious. I like it very much."
In addition to sweet and sour pork, Pei Yang also made three fresh dishes, pan-fried yellow croaker, braised shrimp, squirrel mandarin fish, and candied banana. The staple food is dumplings, served with dumpling soup, and he pays attention to the original soup and the original food.
Although the dishes may seem ordinary, they are all specially prepared according to Sawada's taste preferences.
At first, Sawada was very reserved, but after a few glasses of Moutai, he gradually opened up and spoke freely with the help of the translator.
When everyone is drunk and excited.
Pei Yang suddenly moved his chair next to Zetian, put his slender arm on his shoulder, and acted like a good brother: "Dr. Zetian, do you have any regrets in your life?"
Zetian didn't care about Pei Yang's rudeness. After thinking for a long time, he smiled bitterly and shook his head:
“There are so many, I don’t know where to start.”
Pei Yang asked him: "Then do you know what my biggest regret is?"
Sawada was curious: "I'd like to listen."
Pei Yang burped and said, "My biggest regret is that I didn't see my mother for the last time."
After saying this, her eyes turned red and her voice became choked up: "When she got into trouble, I was working outside and my family couldn't contact me at all. This is my lifelong regret."
"When I heard people talking about your PHS technology, I thought, if only I had this technology at that time, I could carry my phone with me when I go out, and my family could contact me at any time. Then I might not miss seeing my mother for the last time."
"Dr. Sawada, you don't know how great the PHS technology you invented is. I hope to bring it back to my country so that everyone can contact their families anytime and anywhere."
Although PHS technology is advanced, it is criticized and disliked by the local people due to its shortcomings such as poor signal and small network coverage.
For Dr. Sawada, Pei Yang's strong support and high praise were like a good horse meeting its own Bole, and it was hard not to be moved.
"Thank you very much for your optimism about PHS technology, but it still has many shortcomings and disadvantages."
"No invention is perfect when it is first created. All need to grow and improve in practice. I believe that the future PHS technology will surely amaze the world."
The two of them drank and talked happily, talking about everything until late at night.
After watching the taxi that Dr. Sawada was riding in disappear into the night, translator Xiao Xia asked Pei Yang uncertainly:
"Will Dr. Sawada change his mind?"
"I don't know. If it doesn't work, just think of another way. There are always more solutions than problems."
After saying that, he couldn't help but yawn loudly, "I'm so sleepy, let's go back to the hotel and sleep. No matter how big the problem is, we can talk about it after we wake up."
"Just now Dr. Sawada's assistant called and asked us to discuss the purchase of PHS technology."
Pei Yang flipped over and sat up from the bed.
After nearly five hours of negotiations, Dr. Sawada finally agreed to sell the PHS technology for 500 million island currency.
At the current exchange rate, 500 million island currencies are approximately equal to 45 million RMB.
After signing the agreement, Sawada Yuji took the initiative to tell Pei Yang the reason why he changed his mind.
"I'm sorry about your mother's situation. I think that if you bring PHS back, you can avoid more similar regrets. My original intention of doing scientific research is to benefit mankind. I would like to let more people benefit from my research. If so, I would be honored."
On the way back to the hotel, Mr. Xu, who was traveling with them, was very curious about what Pei Yang had said last night to impress Yuji Sawada.
"Brother Pei told Dr. Sawada that he was unable to make it home to see his aunt for the last time due to communication problems, and he will regret it for the rest of his life." Xiao Xia explained the whole story quickly.
Xu Gong suddenly realized it, but soon thought of something else.

"That's not right, Pei Yang. I remember you said your mother died in 1984. Weren't you still a seaman at that time?"
Pei Yang patted Xu Gong on the shoulder: "It's not important. What's important is that we have completed the task and can go home to report."
Xiao Xia was shocked: "Brother Pei, did you lie to Dr. Sawada?"
"How can this be called cheating? It's just a trick at best. My wife once said that since ancient times, deep affection cannot be retained, only tricks can win people's hearts."
Xu Gong and Xiao Xia: "..."
Could you please stop mentioning your wife? It makes it seem like everyone has a wife.
…
Hilton Hotel, Los Angeles.
Shen Mingzhu and her daughter returned to the hotel after a day of fun. When they passed by the front desk, the receptionist kindly stopped them:
"Mrs. Pei, your husband called two hours ago. This is the message he left for you."
"Thanks."
——Wife, the mission is successfully completed. I will go home and wait for you.
Seeing the contents of the note, Shen Mingzhu could imagine the man's smug tone and couldn't help but smile.
"Mom, what did Dad say?"
Shen Mingzhu put away the note, took her daughter's hand and continued to walk towards the elevator, "Dad has finished his work in the island country and has returned home to wait for us."
"oh."
When they got into the elevator, Pei Tang hugged her thighs and looked up at her cute round face and acted coquettishly:
"Mom, can we not go back so soon?"
Shen Mingzhu scratched her daughter's nose and asked, "Don't you miss home and your father?"
"Yes~ But I still want to go to Disneyland. There are still many fun attractions that I haven't tried. We haven't been to Hollywood yet. Can you wait until I have enough fun before going home? Okay?"
"Then what about your summer homework? You've fallen behind a lot after being out for so many days."
"I'll make up for it all when I get back." (End of this chapter)
