(Please subscribe)","the-price-of-showing-off-is-too-high-please-subscribe-166",166,"\"Mr. Taki, I am actually from Research Institute No. 9.\"\nZhao Hai said.\nThe voice was not loud, but as soon as these words came out, everyone on the scene became quiet. Everyone's eyes began to change when they looked at Zhao Hai. First they were surprised, thenThen shocked, and finally disbelieving.\n\"Old sir, what did you just say? Are you from Research Institute No. 9?\"\nTaki also looked at Zhao Hai in shock, his body trembling slightly. He understood. No wonder the other party spoke so righteously when he commented on the mecha just now. It turned out that the other party was from the No. 9 Research Institute.\n\"That's right, my name is Zhao Hai. Thanks to the director, I have been at Research Institute No. 9 for a year. I was previously an academician of the Academy of Science and Technology in Heaven, and now I am a team leader in Research Institute No. 9.\"\n\"Old man, I also participated in the related research and development of this mecha, so I am so aware of the shortcomings of the mecha.\"\nZhao Hai smiled and nodded. Looking at the dull expressions of everyone around him, he felt a little excited.\nSu Jiu, who was not far away, couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene. These old guys were really here to show off, and the effect of this show-off was even stronger than him.\n\"It's true, it's true. I just searched on the Internet. Mr. Zhao was really an academician of the Academy of Science and Technology before he was 19, but there is no information about him in the No. 9 Research Institute.\"\n\"Nonsense, who can investigate the information of Research Institute No. 9? But it seems that Mr. Zhao is indeed from Research Institute No. 9.\"\n\"Oh my god, I just said that Mr. Zhao was talking nonsense, and even accused Mr. Zhao. I am too embarrassed to see anyone.\"\n\"As an academician of the Academy of Science and Technology, Mr. Zhao is only a team leader in Research Institute No. 9. The average level of Research Institute No. 9 is too high.\"\n\"Is it okay if it's not high? After all, it is a place that scientific researchers all over the world aspire to. The status of this tower base is not weak in the Free State, but if it really goes to the No. 9 Research Institute, I'm afraid it will just be a part-time job.\"\n\"...\"\nEveryone was talking a lot, especially the young people who had accused Zhao Hai just now. Now they were even more shameless and had slipped away when no one was paying attention.\n\"Old sir, no, Team Leader Zhao, since you are from Research Institute No. 9, can you introduce me to the director of Research Institute No. 9 and see if I can join Research Institute No. 9.\"\nTaki said and grabbed Zhao Hai's hands directly, his face full of excitement.\nHe has been walking around this exhibition for a while, but he has not met anyone from the No. 9 Research Institute. Now that he has finally met him, he naturally does not intend to let him go.\nAlthough the other party is only a team leader in Research Institute No. 9, he still has some rights, and maybe he can put in a few good words for himself.\nAfter hearing Taki's words, Zhao Hai paused slightly and couldn't help but look at Su Jiu who was not far away. After seeing Su Jiu shaking his head, he did not directly reveal Su Jiu's identity.\n\"Mr. Taki, don't worry. You can see what our director is capable of in two days. As for personnel recruitment, the director needs to make his own decision, but I will talk to the director about you then.\"\nZhao Hai smiled and said that it was impossible for him to make any promises, after all, the director was watching from the side.\n\"Thank you very much, Team Leader Zhao.\"\nTaki nodded. Although the other party did not give a promise, he was very satisfied with the result.\nThen other people came up, complimented Zhao Hai, and asked about Research Institute No. 9. More people took out their mobile phones, and for a while, Zhao Hai was like a monkey in the zoo, being watched by others.\n\"Ahem, let's leave first.\"\nSeeing this scene, Su Jiu shook his head, turned around and left. Fortunately, he didn't let Zhao Hai reveal his identity just now, otherwise Zhao Hai would not be the only one being watched as a monkey.\n\"Let's go, this is not a place for us old people.\"\nZhao Yuan beside him also nodded and walked directly outside.\n\"Mr. Zhao, don't you pretend to be cool anymore?\"\nSu Jiu looked at Zhao Yuan and asked in surprise, wasn't this old man here to show off? Why did he run away?\n\"Boss, what do you mean by pretentiousness? Can't you be more elegant? That's to enjoy everyone's admiration.\"\n\"But the price of this worship is a bit high, and our old bones can't stand the torment.\"\nAs Zhao Yuan spoke, he glanced at Zhao Hai, who had been swallowed up by the crowd. The old man didn't even know where he was being squeezed.\nSeveral other old men also nodded in sympathy, thinking that if they were crowded with so many people because of their pretense, they would still choose to remain unknown.\nSu Jiu smiled. It was okay to act cool when there were few people, but pretending to be cool in front of so many people was no different from seeking death.\nIf other people knew that he was the director of Research Institute No. 9, they might not be able to leave here today.\n\"It seems that I need to hire more bodyguards. After my identity is exposed, there will definitely be a lot of people who admire me.\"\nSu Jiu couldn't help but think about it, and took a look at the exhibition with Zhao Yuan and others before leaving in a hurry.\nIn the next two days, Su Jiu and others did not go to the exhibition. Instead, they visited some tourist attractions in Shanghai with Mr. Zhao and others, which was quite pleasant.\nExcept for Su Jiu and others, other people from the No. 9 Research Institute did not go to the exhibition anymore. The previous thoughts of showing off had completely dissipated because of Zhao Hai's incident.\nIt is said that when Zhao Hai came back, his glasses were gone and he came back barefoot. Even his shoes were collected by some guy with a special hobby. Even his clothes were covered with scratches.\nThis incident also serves as a warning to everyone in the No. 9 Research Institute. It's okay for 537 to show off, but don't go to crowded places. Everyone is old and can't stand the trouble.\nOn the third day, scientific researchers from various countries had also arrived. There were over a thousand of them, all top scientists from various countries, and they were textbook-like existences in their respective fields.\nBut this time, these scientific researchers did not have the slightest arrogance. Although they had many honors, they were still not a little bit behind the people of Research Institute No. 9.\n\"Boss, everything is ready. The summit will begin in an hour.\"\nSmallWu came to Su Jiu's room and said.\nSu Jiu stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the blue suit she was wearing. Her slender figure was also outlined, and she even gave her hair a special blowjob. She was indeed much more energetic than usual.\n\"I'm ready too, let's go.\"\nSu Jiu nodded and strode outside. When he arrived outside the hotel, dozens of special cars were already waiting, and Zhao Yuan and others had also gathered together.\nDifferent from the casual appearance in the institute in the past, Zhao Yuan and others are now carefully dressed, everyone is wearing suits and ties.\nAlthough he is old, his eyes are bright and clear, and ordinary people can see something unusual at a glance.\n\"Get in the car and head to the summit!\"\nSu Jiu waved her hand, and everyone nodded, got in their cars, and headed towards the summit venue.",1385,"2026-06-05T18:03:34.004Z",1,null,"8532160cf7fb68b16f3deefc75af2793dd752494f94c11a88176c5f93503acef","life-is-really-lonely-please-subscribe-167","i-am-from-research-institute-no-9-please-subscribe-165",1372,"\u002Fcovers\u002F2744d9e2-255e-4853-bafb-59a1dcb29203-1780682611574.jpg"]
