“First of all, let me introduce myself. I’m the President of the Science & Technology Association and also the founder of Hyman Technology. You can call me Joseph.
“I’m very happy that everyone is able to attend this Science & Technology Summit.”
At this point, the old man paused and looked at the crowd below the stage. Finally, a hint of impatience appeared on someone’s face and all Joseph could do was helplessly smile.
He actually didn’t have many expectations for this year’s Science & Technology Summit.
Everyone’s exhibits had already been passed to him through a list from the very beginning.
They were all the same, mostly ordinary guns and ammunition, or just some modified vehicles. It was nothing more than adding some range and power to the original foundation.
The most exciting stuff was just precious ‘souvenir’ guns made of all kinds of strange materials.
These young people had no imagination at all.
These people were like a group of children. All they did was take the original object’s form and use all kinds of strange and rare materials to make a replica as their ‘admission’ ticket into the exhibition, hoping to seek everyone’s reward and recognition.
Just from the looks of it, these kids didn’t even seem to have any patience.
Joseph shook his head and slowly said, “Next, let our vice president and founder of Smith Technology, Mr. Robert, host this exhibition’s introduction for everyone.”
After hearing Joseph’s words, an excited voice immediately sounded in the meeting room.
After waiting for so long, the meeting finally began.
Many people had come to the Science & Technology Summit but through paying a great price.
Money, connections, and everything else in between.
All in the effort to prove their own value and that of their own research technology, that could only be done through this exhibition alone.
Therefore, rather than listening to an old man mumbling, it was better for them to just move onto the appraisal segment.
Everyone could no longer wait to display their exhibits to the rest of the crowd to receive praise and honor.
Under everyone’s gaze, a middle-aged man with a combed-back hairstyle sitting in the first row slowly stood up and walked steadily onto the podium.
“The purpose of our Science & Technology Summit is to promote the progress of the world. I believe that with your active participation, whether it is the future of the world or all of you present here, you will all have a bright future!
“I won’t say anything else. Now, let’s get straight to the main event and begin today’s Science & Technology Summit introduction.”
After saying that, the entire conference room was filled with a burst of enthusiastic applause, everyone’s faces colored with excitement.
After the applause stopped, Robert walked to the front of a row of exhibits that were covered with a black curtain.
Then, he picked up the card in his hand and read, “Now, according to the order on this card, I will be giving a simple introduction to everyone’s exhibits. The owner of the exhibits that are being read can raise his hand at any time to add content!” Robert finished.
Countless members began to discuss in low voices. Many of them also took out a small card from their pockets and read what was on them. It seemed that they were very familiar with the exhibition process.
Robert saw this scene and did not say anything.
He did not let everyone quiet down. Instead, he gave them some time to prepare.
The Science & Technology Summit was the top conference in the star-spangled country, even if it had a very strict system.
However, in reality, it was still relatively lenient in handling matters.
After all, apart from a portion of acquaintances, there were also quite a number of newcomers who just joined each time. They had to give them some time to get used to how things worked.
After a minute, Robert read out the first exhibit on the card.
The content included nothing more than the name of the technology, the creator, and which company it came from.
As for more specific content related to the technology, the creator himself raised his hand and stood up to introduce it.
..
Half an hour passed.
The first segment of introductions was basically completed and now, there was a ten-minute break.
This was also a good time for them to discuss things with one another.
Generally speaking, if someone wanted to take a fancy on a particular weapon displayed just now, this break was also the time for them to communicate their interest.
Those who acted quickly had already started to place their orders, preparing to draw out the first payments from their own accounts.
Ten minutes wasn’t that long.
Everyone had finished chatting. One by one, they put away the pen and paper in their hands into their bags, putting down their wine glasses as they were carried away by the waiter with a tray.
After that, they returned to their seats, ready to listen to the next segment of the exhibition.
At the last minute…
Suddenly, a man in a white shirt and sunglasses quickly walked up to the podium.
This made everyone stunned.
What was going on?
Generally speaking, the host of the exhibition was appointed by the President of the Science & Technology Summit and he would inform everyone in advance.
He wouldn’t change the candidate midway.
After all, not everyone could stand in that position and speak.
At this time, the vice president who had just wiped his hands clean with a white handkerchief noticed the man on the podium after being reminded by the waiter.
He immediately frowned and turned his head to look at President Joseph who was sitting on an animal skin sofa not far away.
The two of them looked at each other, Joseph’s eyes also showing confusion.
He shook his head slightly. It was obvious that he did not know what was going on.
Vice President Robert heaved a sigh of relief. As long as it was not arranged by the president, he was not worried.
He had even thought that the President was dissatisfied with him and wanted to replace him at the last minute.
After all, this was the Science & Technology Summit.
The Science & Technology Summit had been held for so many years. During the first session, there had been some things that made him uncomfortable and unhappy.
But after everyone gave the troublemakers a small punishment, no one dared to come to the Science & Technology Summit ever again to cause trouble.
These troublemakers no longer existed.
And now, a young man had appeared. Not only did he walk onto the podium, but he also had a calm expression on his face as if he didn’t take the Science & Technology Summit seriously at all.
This made Robert suspicious.
To dare to come to the Science & Technology Association to cause trouble, could this kid be Joseph’s illegitimate child?
However, he did not have time to think about it now.
After confirming with his eyes that Joseph himself did not know about it, this was indeed an uninvited guest. He needed to be invited out so that he would understand what a stupid thing he had done.
Robert was just about to wave his hand and call a few special forces guards to take this kid away when just then, he saw President Joseph staring at the man on the stage with interest.
‘It’s been a long time since something like this has happened,’ thought Joseph.
The Science & Technology Summit was getting older and older as if it was going downhill like these old men.
Now, this young man walked onto the stage.
He saw the fighting spirit in the young man’s eyes.
This kid was very brave. It was possible he brought a surprise with him.
Joseph had some expectations, even if this was a person who was not on the exhibition list.
He raised his hand toward Robert and shook his head at him. Obviously, he did not want him to stop what was happening in front of them.
Robert had no choice but to stop the special forces and wave his hand. He made the two special forces soldiers stop their actions.
Let’s see what the young man who took his place wanted to say.
