The official website of the Madam Curie Award is followed by medical scholars and medical enthusiasts worldwide. If a team gets posted there, it is an embarrassment before the whole world!
Faced with Xue Mingqing's provocation, Wu Zhiyuan merely responded nonchalantly, "I wonder if your top student, Shi Liyun, has been promoted at Academician Peng's institute?"
Xue Mingqing's face darkened immediately, and he never responded!
Initially, because Shi Liyun lied, he had lost face a lot because of this matter!
It was like a huge shadow in his heart—hurting even with a slight touch, let alone Wu Zhiyuan poking right at it!
Seeing that Xue Mingqing did not respond, Wu Zhiyuan coolly sent a contemptuous sneer emoji and then turned to open Miss Chi's chat window and asked worriedly, "Miss Chi, has that new drug at your institute not entered clinical trials yet? Should we try it on white mice before the judges start the selection?"
If the white mice really had problems, they could withdraw their application early.
Although that would be embarrassing, wouldn't it be better than being ridiculed on the website by medical scholars worldwide?
But he did not say that directly.
In Wu Zhiyuan's heart, he always felt that Chi Gui was not such an unreliable person...
Chi Gui had just returned from her institute and after freshening up, noticed the message from Wu Zhiyuan.
She slowly typed a "?"
Soon, Wu Zhiyuan replied with a "?"
Chi Gui: "What gave you the illusion that I haven't conducted clinical trials?"
Wu Zhiyuan: "Even the elders in our expert group haven't heard about you conducting clinical trials, are you sure it's just my illusion?"
Chi Gui: "Ah. I've only used this drug on patients in a sanatorium, maybe the news was blocked."
The sanatorium housed either the nation's high-ranking officials or powerful elites whose medical conditions are kept tightly confidential, known only to their primary doctors and a very few others.
If Chi Gui had administered drugs to these people, it was indeed impossible for other members of the expert group to know...
Wu Zhiyuan was silent for a long time and finally couldn't help sighing deeply, "I'm somewhat envious of you to be trusted so much by those big shots."
Even the new drugs, merely on Chi Gui's recommendation, were used without hesitation.
How much trust did that require?
If Xue Mingqing and Shi Liyun knew this, they would probably be too ashamed to boast ever again. Get full chapters from N0velFire.ɴet
Chi Gui sent a smiling emoji: "Maybe because I've never made a mistake."
Seeing the message from Chi Gui, Wu Zhiyuan took quite some time to resist the impulse of blocking her.
It was soon the day of the Madam Curie Award ceremony.
Other than the official committee of the Madam Curie Award sending a nomination invitation to the Gui Ling Research Team, Academician Peng and Orlando Nelson had also messaged Chi Gui personally a day earlier.
Chi Gui thanked them one by one and then booked rooms for her institute's dozen or so researchers.
The next day, a group of twenty people arrived at the venue for the Madam Curie Award ceremony.
This was the first time Xu Wen and others had visited abroad for such a significant award ceremony. As soon as they entered, except for Chi Gui, everyone was overwhelmed by the solemn atmosphere inside; they sat up straight, not daring to glance sideways.
Besides Chi Gui's team, other national research teams, whether nominated or not, started entering one after another.
After all, even without a nomination, getting to meet some renowned medical scholars at the venue was a big win for smaller research groups.
