Chapter 997

Zhou Andong's words made some people of insight fall into deep thought, but more people thought that Zhou Andong was alarmist.

"Blindly worshiping Western values, always mentioning the United States, always mentioning universal values, always mentioning international integration. There are many people, especially in universities, who blindly worship Western values, and very few can think independently.

They endlessly praise so-called freedom, democracy, human rights, and one-person-one-vote, losing the realistic analysis and discussion of their historical background and class limitations; this is very, very dangerous.

Therefore, we must be vigilant against Western cultural aggression and ideological trends."

The young man couldn't help it again, because Zhou Andong's words criticized his persistence over the years to pieces, even making him feel a bit panicked.

"The reason why the United States is developed and civilized is because of democratic diversification, species diversification, and cultural diversification; this is the correct path to promote the development of civilization. Why can't we learn from it? Instead, you are talking nonsense here, being alarmist."

"Americans go everywhere saying they want diversification, democratic diversification, species diversification, cultural diversification; I find it strange. Damn it, in the world's hundred-flower garden, China grew as this flower, both bright and strong; why must it be the same as this American flower?"

Zhou Andong's voice suddenly rose: "And what about Japan's flower, Korea's flower? I tell you, adhering to reform and opening up, adhering to the Chinese people's own development path, is defending scientific diversification and cultural diversification."

"Clap, clap, clap..."

This time, it was He Jingyuan who took the lead in applauding. Zhou Andong's words really spoke to his heart.

We adhere to reform and opening up, adhere to our own development path; why must we learn from the United States?

The applause was long and continuous; even the young man who had just asked the question followed suit and clapped.

Zhou Andong picked up the mineral water and took another sip, then looked at the young man.

"They are capitalist, parliamentary, speak English; you admire them, then go take a look. Shootings happen every three days, homeless people are all over the streets; the high quality you think of, those so-called elites, when they drink too much, will also stand on the street and pee.

What are you admiring? If you insist on saying, 'I'm not afraid of being shot, I'm willing to be a homeless person in the United States even if I can't find a job,' then I can only give you two words: idiot!"

As soon as Zhou Andong's voice fell, light laughter followed, and the young man's face turned iron-blue.

"Are you still satisfied with this answer of mine?" Zhou Andong looked at the young man with a smile.

The young man closed his mouth again; no matter how Zhou Andong mocked him or what he said, he didn't make a sound.

Zhou Andong snorted: "Do you think I cursed and humiliated Zhuo Qihua because he didn't donate money to Chinese universities?"

The young man still didn't speak, but that was exactly what he thought in his heart.

"I'm not that bored; who he donates money to is his freedom; I won't carry out moral kidnapping against him."

Zhou Andong's voice became colder and colder: "He belittled our country first, and then humiliated us Chinese; shouldn't he be cursed? Do you really think I'm like you, preferring to be a foreign slave on my knees rather than standing up as a master?"

The young man was cursed by Zhou Andong until his face turned green and red, while the other young man secretly felt lucky, thinking that fortunately he didn't ask any more blind questions, otherwise a round of humiliation would be unavoidable.

At the same time, he also made up his mind that he would absolutely never provoke Zhou Andong in the future; this guy's mouth was too powerful, and his knowledge reserve was even more astonishing.

"I tell you."

Zhou Andong held the microphone and roared at the young man; the sound equipment screeched, startling quite a few people.

"The Chinese people have never lacked an innovative spirit; the Four Great Inventions of ancient China greatly pushed forward the progress of human civilization; who dares to say that contemporary China won't have new Four Great Inventions to attract the world's attention?"

Zhou Andong moved his gaze away from the young man, making the young man exhale a long breath.

Zhou Andong's gaze was really a bit scary, making him not even dare to breathe loudly.

Zhou Andong scanned the venue: "I just said, thirty years, no more than fifty years, the height of our China's development will make it hard for everyone to believe. For example, trains: from Beijing to Yangcheng, departing in the morning and arriving in the evening.

Eating breakfast in Beijing in the morning and dinner in Yangcheng in the evening; think about how beautiful that would be. Also, you don't need to carry money when going shopping; just take a mobile phone. Want to buy something? You can pay with a mobile phone; think about how exciting that is."

"Mr. Zhou!" Miss He blinked her bright eyes and asked: "In the future, will our China really have such fast trains? Will we really not need to carry money when going shopping, and be able to pay with a mobile phone?"

Zhou Andong shook his head slightly: "I don't know; this is just something I imagined."

"I believe it!" Miss He clenched her fist and waved it: "With the wisdom of our Chinese people, we will definitely be able to realize this dream."

"I hope so." Zhou Andong smiled: "It's just that the ticket price for such a train will definitely be very expensive. Not to mention mobile phones; I can't afford one now, and maybe they will be even more expensive in the future; how could ordinary people afford them?"

"Not necessarily!" Miss He shook her head: "The development of technology is forward-looking; when it reaches a certain level, it might be very cheap."

The people at the scene, hearing the conversation between the two, all smiled slightly.

Beijing to Yangcheng, departing in the morning and arriving in the evening; not needing to carry money when going shopping, being able to pay with a mobile phone.

Think about it, it's indeed very yearning, but can it really be realized?

Everyone had an answer in their hearts: impossible.

Miss He was in high spirits and wanted to chat more with Zhou Andong, but looking at those reporters, all watching them eagerly, she could only smile apologetically and sit down.

Immediately after, a woman wearing thick nearsighted glasses, about forty years old, with a slightly plump body, raised her hand.

"Chairman Zhou, now, the fever for going abroad is becoming more and more intense; many people, even if they have no way to go abroad, will try every possible means to send their children abroad. Do you think going abroad is blind worship of foreign things, and what is your view on patriotism?"

This question was quite normal, and Zhou Andong nodded: "Although I don't agree with the American culture and their values touted by those 'Hate-Country Party' members, I have to admit that some things are worth learning. Therefore, not everyone who goes abroad is blindly worshiping foreign things..."

Zhou Andong was blocked in the venue by reporters for interviews, while on the 28th floor, a sexy and enchanting woman stuffed five hundred yuan into the pockets of a floor attendant and two cleaners each, then glanced at room 2831 and walked towards the elevator, going up to the 29th floor.

In room 2917, Zhuo Qihua closed his eyes and sat on the sofa, not knowing if he was asleep, motionless.

Just at this moment, the door creaked, and a mature, sexy, and extremely beautiful woman walked in.

"Finished eating?" The woman kicked off her high heels, walked over, sat on the sofa, and then picked up the cigarette on the coffee table and lit it.

"Where did you go?" Zhuo Qihua opened his eyes, his tone revealing dissatisfaction.

The woman snorted and took a puff of her cigarette very elegantly: "Where I go, is it necessary to report to you?"

With a whoosh, a burst of evil fire shot up to the top of Zhuo Qihua's head; he had already been full of anger at Zhou Andong's place, so how could he control it?

"Si Wei!" Zhuo Qihua roared in a low voice: "Don't forget, when you first arrived in Hong Kong, bringing children and the elderly, who helped you. If you dare to betray me, I'll definitely kill you, and your two sons too."
