Chapter 706: Make Them Convinced
In fact, compared to Xu You taking action himself, Xu You hopes that someone like Robert can speak out.
Because Robert is not a member of the scientific field of China, such a person can speak out and more objectively explain the importance and feasibility of the lunar space station transformation plan.
Seeing Robert suddenly stand up, everyone at SAM Aerospace, including Director Williams, Commander Johnson, and others, were a little surprised.
They came to attend this century-long conference out of sincerity, but they did not want there to be such strong differences of opinion between different organizations in their own country.
Williams tried hard to wink at Robert, signaling him not to be so impulsive.
Robert ignored Williams's signal and continued to stand proudly in the meeting room, fighting back against Grayson's views.
"We are sitting here for the safety of all mankind, not for the interests of a few people. Academician Xu You is willing to risk his life to go to the moon and discover the hidden secrets. Grayson, as a scientist at Sam Science Academy, what have you done for mankind?"
Facing Robert's questioning, Grayson sneered and said:
"I thought you were someone else, but you turned out to be just a researcher at SAM Space Agency. I don't know what Xu You did to make you so loyal to him. You talk nicely, but in fact, apart from consuming the huge resources of Blue Planet, what have you really done for mankind? If SAM Space Agency really has any opinions, you should just let Director Williams come forward."
Grayson's implication was that Robert was not on the same level as himself, which made Robert even more angry.
Williams was caught in the middle and seemed to be in a dilemma. After all, if he really fought back against Sam Science Academy, it would only cause more serious trouble.
"That's enough! Stupid guy, if you really don't want to participate in this meeting, just go back!"
Hearing this old voice, everyone subconsciously turned their heads and found that it was the Soviet scientist, Ajimnov.
Agimnov was already over ninety years old, but he still managed to stand up and shouted at Grayson.
Ajinov is a living fossil in the world of physics. Scientists from all countries have some respect for him.
"Mr. Ajinov, please stay calm and don't hurt yourself."
Ajinov's assistant tried to persuade him, but Ajinov just waved his hand and continued to scold Grayson.
"Grayson, I know you have always hated Shenzhou and Xu You. Because of their rise, the status of Sam Academy has plummeted. Even the entire Sam Academy has to start learning Chinese to understand the most cutting-edge academic and technological knowledge. I thought everyone came here today with a sincere concern for the safety of all mankind, but I didn't expect that there would still be people who would take revenge on their own..."
Ajinov's voice was full of hoarseness. A man of his age should have been enjoying his retirement at home.
But in such a situation, Ajinov really couldn't stand seeing that some people were still destroying the collective cohesion out of selfishness.
Grayson was naturally very awed by Ajinov, but since Grayson had made his choice today, there was no turning back.
Grayson gritted his teeth, pointed his finger at Ajinov, and said sternly:
"Ajinov, to be honest, I used to admire you, but now it seems that you are just their accomplice. At your age, how much scientific research ability do you have? The youngest scholar in our Sam Academy of Sciences is much better than you are now..."
Grayson's unreasonable attack on Ajinov made everyone in the venue feel even more disgusted with Grayson.
"you……"
Ajinov was so angry at Grayson's remarks that he covered his chest with his right hand and his body was shaking.
"Hurry up and drag him away. If this continues, this meeting will not be able to continue."
A staff member instructed the security guards beside him, and two security guards walked towards Grayson upon hearing the news.
Fortunately, this meeting was held in secret, and no one was allowed to bring in mobile phones or other devices with recording functions, which made the impact of the conflict just now much smaller.
"Mr. Grayson, please leave the meeting now."
Grayson sneered when he heard the security guard's words.
"You finally come to chase me away, huh? It seems that the free discussion you just talked about is a false concept. It doesn't matter. I'm not the only one who opposes this plan. Come on."
Grayson didn't put up any resistance and prepared to follow the two security guards out of the venue.
"Wait a moment!"
At this time, a magnetic voice appeared.
This sound does not use a microphone, but is emitted directly through the mouth. However, due to the strong resonance of the cavity, it appears full of energy, loud but not harsh.
Everyone looked over and found that it was Xu You who stood up.
Seeing Xu You's look, Grayson felt a strong sense of oppression. He wanted to speak out to refute, but subconsciously he didn't dare to look directly into Xu You's eyes.
Xu You didn't want to intervene in this matter personally, but seeing many of his friends being attacked by Grayson, and even an old man like Ajimnov being slandered by Grayson to the point of being furious, this was indeed something Xu You could not tolerate.
Grayson's words just now also made Xu You understand a truth.
In the current meeting, Grayson is not the only one who holds similar views.
Even if Grayson is dragged out, I'm afraid there will be a second and third Grayson who will step forward one after another.
If we can't convince Grayson and the others, this problem will only remain .
"I don't know how many of you here think like Grayson. So listen carefully now. If you can answer the questions I asked, I am willing to give up the lunar space station plan this time."
After hearing what Xu You said, the entire venue fell into silence.
Then, everyone started whispering and discussing something in a low voice with the people around them.
"Isn't it too impulsive for Academician Xu You to say this?"
"It shouldn't be. Academician Xu You has never been an impulsive person. He must have made sufficient preparations."
"There are indeed some people who have similar ideas to Grayson, but they just don't say it out loud. Only by doing this can everyone be convinced."
Grayson smiled slyly when he heard this, and the oppressive feeling he had just felt disappeared.
