Chapter 146

"What if you catch a cold again!"

"As your secretary, how would I answer to the higher-ups..."

"You don't need to answer to anyone!"

Elder Zhao remained very firm.

"I, Zhao Keqin, have spent my whole life in research, and for every project, I have always been on the front line!"

"Whether it was the birth of the J-8, or the J-10, J-11, or even the J-20, I have never missed a single test!"

"This is the meaning of my life, Zhao Keqin!"

"For the sake of the Long Guo's fighter jet cause, I, Zhao Keqin, will never be a deserter, even if I die of illness!"

Hearing these heartfelt words from Elder Zhao, Secretary Little Li stood frozen in place.

Vaguely, he was also infected by the aura Elder Zhao exuded, as if he saw the glorious years of Elder Zhao's youth dedicated to the country.

Research personnel of the older generation like Elder Zhao.

Had the firmest faith!

And the purest of hearts!

Whether it was Elder Qian, who gave up the generous treatment of the Free Nation for the country, or Elder Deng, who gave his life for the two-bomb cause.

Or Elder Zhao, Elder Liu, and this group of founders of Long Guo's research!

They were all worthy of the name of masters!

All worthy of being called unparalleled national scholars!

Even until death, they carried a sincere, patriotic heart.

Dedicating everything just for the rise of the Long Guo!

In a daze, Assistant Little Li's eyes filled with tears.

He suddenly felt that the old man before him, hooked up to an IV drip, his figure already hunched.

Within that withered body, there lay such a great soul!

Assistant Little Li closed his eyes, struggling to keep the tears from falling.

"Alright! Elder Zhao!"

"I understand your meaning!"

"I will go and contact the leaders of the Northern Military Region right now to arrange everything for you..." ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
