Chapter 1481: Chapter 1108: Shocking Program
Director Han and Dean Xia stayed in the restroom, finished smoking, and felt it was about ti. The sensation caused by the announcent of Yang Ping’s award had probably cooled down a bit, so they thought it was a good ti to go out for so fresh air.
As they sneaked out of the smoking room, they bumped into Yang Ping, who was looking for them.
”Professor Yang?”
Dean Xia and Director Han felt like thieves caught red-handed.
“Call Xiao Yang, I’ve told you many tis. I just like it when you call Xiao Yang,” Yang Ping corrected their way of addressing him.
”Ah, Xiao Yang, we were just hiding here to smoke a cigarette. How are things outside now? You haven’t been drinking a lot, have you?” Director Han asked worriedly.
Yang Ping whispered, “Don’t worry, it’s all just soft drinks. It all gets filtered out by the kidneys.”
“I’m drinking soft drinks with them, but I’m going to have a real drink with you. Let’s go, let’s go!” Yang Ping pulled Director Han and Dean Xia along.
“Please don’t, drinking is easy for us and we can do it anyti, but today we really need to take it easy,” both Director Han and Dean Xia declined at the sa ti.
“No, today I must toast to you. Without you, I wouldn’t have achieved what I have now,” Yang Ping insisted on dragging Director Han and Dean Xia for a drink.
“Alright, let’s just keep it symbolic, please don’t take it too seriously. Co on, let’s just make a gesture,” seeing that he couldn’t dissuade Yang Ping, Director Han had no choice but to agree.
Yang Ping pulled Director Han and Dean Xia to the spacious lobby of the hotel, toasted a glass of red wine with each of them, and both Dean Xia and Director Han were all smiles. The young man was still grateful, having achieved such a status but still hadn’t forgotten the two elders.
At this mont, the lobby was bustling with activity. Professor Su and Mrs. Su were accompanying Yang Ping’s parents, having a joyful conversation. With such a son and such a son-in-law, they naturally felt overjoyed. Mrs. Su stayed with Yang Ping’s parents the whole ti, and Professor Su, despite being very busy, would go around greeting the guests occasionally. But even so, he would always co back and chat with Yang Ping’s parents for a while.
Song Zimo, Zhang Lin, and Little Five accompanied the younger guests, such as Song Yun from Beijing, Wen Rentao from Shanghai, as well as many assistants and students of European and Arican professors. Nanchen was with the younger generation of their family, and Nanchen’s uncle, a business mogul in the pharmaceutical industry, was accompanying the elders of the Su Family. The Su Family’s fourth sibling even made a special trip back to attend Xiao Su’s wedding.
Although most of the guests were from the academic circles, there were also a few friends from the political and business sectors. Business friends were accompanied by Huang Jiacai and Old Cheng, while Ning Qi also helped entertain. A political heavyweight, Xiao Su’s uncle, was enough to represent the political side. The outer periphery of all sorts of activities was solely managed by Wang Changxin. The entire wedding was well-organized, spontaneously hosting countless small and large academic conferences, exchanging various cutting-edge dical research findings, providing a rare opportunity for scholars who usually cannot gather together to communicate.
Most of the young people were talented youths, and nobody engaged in rowdy behaviors like forcing drinks. They behaved very civilly. Gathering together, they also exchanged their recent learning and research insights. At the sa ti, they communicated face-to-face with the big shots at the wedding scene, broadening their horizons.
Professor Liang, Professor Zhang Zongshun, Professor Feng Tiancheng, and Elder Su gathered together with a group of old professors. Usually very disciplined, they now completely indulged themselves, drinking enthusiastically as the new generation, represented by Xiao Yang winning the Nobel Prize, pushed forward, much to their joy.
The foreigners had never experienced the atmosphere of a Chinese banquet before and got excited as well, the performance on stage continued. Robert and August perford a codic dialogue, which requires a high level of proficiency in Chinese, but their mastery over the language had everyone in stitches. As many foreign friends did not understand Chinese, Robert and August respectively pulled in their assistants Barrett and Markus to translate, effectively performing the cody routine again in English, bending international guests with laughter as they experienced the charm of English codic dialogues for the first ti.
Wang Changxin was competing in drinking with Huang Jiacai and felt extrely pleased with the arrangents he made for the off-stage celebration and, as one of the wedding organizers, he felt trendously honored—a chance that many tycoons dream of.
Scholars are indeed multi-talented; Professor He from Nandu dical University presented a magic trick—sawing a person alive. He would perform a thrilling magic show on stage using the simplest of props.
The dual identity of a magician and a professor made the magic trick more thrilling, his model being Elder Academician Xiang. Elder Xiang first ran a lap around the audience, shaking hands with everyone, then rushed to the stage, greeted the audience to demonstrate he was a real living person, then carefully lied down on the operating table. This was a simple tal operating table, not a large box typically hidden in magic tricks.
Academician Xiang lay on the operating table without any protection, covered only with a sterile blue sheet. Professor He held an orthopedic high-speed saw and steadily approached Academician Xiang, then pressed the saw towards his body.
Oh my god, the audience all gasped out loud, because Professor He truly sawed Academician Xiang into two halves with the saw. And that was not all; he then split Academician Xiang into left and right halves. To use anatomical terminology, he perford a dissection in both the transverse and sagittal planes, with blood spurting out randomly, covering the sterile sheet and floor with blood, even deliberately separating the chunks of body to enhance the cutting effect.
The audience trembled with fear, wondering what on earth had happened. Right before their eyes, without any cover or deceptive tricks, he had cut a person into pieces.
Just as everyone was in horror, another sterile sheet was placed over, then lifted, and Academician Xiang stood up from the operating table unhurt, greeting everyone.
The whole venue cheered, the magic trick was too thrilling.
Then, Professor He told everyone that the “living person” they just saw being cut by the saw was a hologram made using the Digital Human Technology from Nandu dical University, only the world’s most advanced Digital Human technology could achieve such a lifelike projection.
A single magic trick had made all the scholars present rember the Digital Human Technology of Nandu dical University.
The program from Jonathan of Mayo was a stand-up cody mixed with Chinese and English, taking care of guests who spoke both languages, he drew on the dical contrasts between China and United States to create a hilarious show.
For example, how a patient in the United States saw a family doctor for three months without receiving a diagnosis, then waited another three months to finally see a specialist, whom after eting the patient advises: “Go ho and rest for three more months to see.”
From the various performances last night to today’s reception, dinner, and show, everyone had been excited all day long, and when it ended, they were reluctant to leave, fearing that such a grand gathering of dical scholars might never happen again.
The entire wedding was indescribable, bringing shock after shock to everyone.
