Wasn’t this just a test question she casually wrote for Academician Peng?
Yet he ended up sending it to everyone in the research institute??
Chi Gui couldn’t help but mutter a complaint in her heart.
Upon seeing Shi Liyun raise this question, the rest of the people in the institute didn’t say a word; they just stood aside, waiting to see Chi Gui make a fool of herself.
Chi Gui took Shi Liyun’s phone, glanced at it for no more than three seconds, and exclaimed, "These few areas indeed have flaws, I corrected them last night."
The onlookers waiting for a laugh: ??
A bad premonition suddenly surged in their hearts.
The next second, Chi Gui took out a USB drive from her bag, walked to the projector on the left side of the institute’s steps, skillfully turned on the projector, and retrieved the data inside.
As the screen gradually became clear, everyone also saw it.
The image, still the one Academician Peng had sent them last night, but the content on it had some significant modifications.
The three points Shi Liyun had just asked about had already been adjusted.
After Chi Gui’s revisions, the overall direction hadn’t changed, yet it became easier to understand and simpler.
After seeing it, everyone became unsettled.
They hadn’t even fully grasped it, and she had already finished modifying it??
And modified it so well!!
At that moment, the crowd finally looked at Chi Gui with respect.
In this field, regardless of one’s temperament, as long as it doesn’t involve moral character, competent people always earn others’ respect.
That researcher who had openly opposed Chi Gui and often appeared in international authoritative journals sighed and stepped forward to apologize to Chi Gui, "I was wrong before, I’m sorry. What are your instructions going forward?"
Chi Gui’s unique insights and efficient working style completely won everyone over.
During lunch, everyone enthusiastically invited Chi Gui to join them.
Shi Liyun sat in her seat, listening to the lively sounds behind her, took several deep breaths, forcibly suppressed her brewing frustration, stood up, and smiled, "Chi Gui, I heard the pasta here is special, very delicious. Let’s try it together?"
She was deliberately trying to forge a relationship with Chi Gui.
Shi Liyun wasn’t foolish; though she couldn’t understand what was happening, she knew the importance of maintaining a good relationship with Chi Gui now.
She intentionally spoke with such closeness, just to appear friendly with Chi Gui in front of everyone.
The reason Shi Liyun was so bold and sure that Chi Gui wouldn’t refuse was that — everyone in the Huaxia Expert Group knew Chi Gui would never do anything that might tarnish the nation’s reputation... even if it was just a trivial matter like a colleague’s disagreement.
After Shi Liyun had finished speaking, she waited for Chi Gui’s agreement.
Chi Gui indeed spoke up, but what she said was, "Have you finished the task at hand?"
