Hearing the reminder from this Black school board member.
The eyes of President Steve and the other department heads were immediately drawn to the white professor, Elmano.
The professor accepted the bet with Zheng Shuangmei in his office.
If Wang Yueheng's performance fails or causes a negative impact.
Chinese-American professor Zheng Shuangmei has voluntarily resigned and left California Polytechnic permanently.
And if the performance is successful.
Elmano must publicly apologize to Professor Zheng Shuangmei for his arrogance and slander!
"Uh...this..."
"That was just a joke, wasn't it, Professor Zheng?"
Elmano, with an awkward smile on his face, looked in Zheng Shuangmei's direction and deliberately asked a question.
Although to ordinary people, this bet was clearly unfair to Professor Zheng Shuangmei.
If you lose, you have to resign, while the other party just apologizes in public.
However, some people harbor strong racist tendencies and advocate white supremacy.
And Elmano, who is also a senior member of the California Institute of Technology's Board of Trustees.
He was made to apologize in public to the yellow-skinned Chinese professor for the sake of a group of international students and a Chinese singer.
It's even more unbearable than firing him.
Elmano's first reaction was to immediately dismiss the bet as a joke and deny it outright.
In his view, as long as he showed remorse, Zheng Shuangmei would not pursue the matter further.
"Zheng, we're all colleagues, why make things so ugly?"
"Professor Zheng, why don't you have Mr. Elmano invite your students to dinner? I'm sure they'll be very happy."
"I also believe it was just a casual joke and shouldn't be taken seriously."...
The white professors and department heads who were on good terms with Elmano also began to help change the subject.
For these white people who have a certain status, face is often more important than money.
"Sorry, I don't think it was a joke."
"It is a solemn agreement that involves the dignity of me and my students."
"Please apologize here on the spot, or post a public apology on the California Institute of Technology campus forum!"
Zheng Shuangmei looked directly at Elmano, and did not back down or reconcile despite the attempts by her white colleagues to smooth things over.
"Professor Zheng, you're making me feel very embarrassed."
"We work together in the same office. Are you sure you won't need my help in the future?"
Elmano's eyes gradually revealed a hint of ferocity, and he spoke in a threatening tone.
"I won't mix work-related matters with personal matters."
"I believe Professor Elmano will handle this officially, won't he?"
Without hesitation, Zheng Shuangmei turned the tables and asked a question.
"this…"
Elmano was stunned.
He noticed the increasingly gloomy expressions on the faces of the other school board members beside him.
He suddenly realized that he had just gotten too angry and almost blurted out "I will use my power to retaliate against you" in public!
"Okay, yes... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have laughed at your and your students' show in the office..."
Seeing that Principal Steve's face was beginning to show displeasure, he knew there was no way he could avoid it.
Elmano had no choice but to grit his teeth and apologize in a low voice.
"And Mr. Wang Yueheng, you forgot that he created this program."
Zheng Shuangmei added firmly.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made fun of your students and Mr. Wang Yueheng. Their performance was excellent."
After saying this, Elmano's cheeks flushed red, and he turned away with his fists clenched, ignoring Zheng Shuangmei.
And his apology remarks.
It was quickly shared by other professors and teachers who were watching the spectacle with their students or friends.
Not long after.
