Chapter 864: Chapter 768: Twisting and Bizarre Chapter 864: Chapter 768: Twisting and Bizarre Nandu dical University Affiliated First Hospital, Dean’s office.
Professor Su had just completed a challenging spinal deformity correction surgery and returned to his office. Since his phone was locked in the office, he was unaware of the eting’s outco. He wanted to take out his phone and check the result of the eting.
Before he could retrieve his phone, Nanchen hurried over, eager to tell Professor Su about Yang Ping’s news. Nanchen had just finished a surgery when a postdoctoral researcher sent him a WeChat ssage detailing the entire situation, which he had verified from multiple sources.
By now, Yang Ping’s bid for the Outstanding Young Talent award was common knowledge throughout the Nandu system. The live-stread eting and deliberately slanderous articles had propelled the matter into the eye of the storm. Not only were employees and students within the Nandu system focused on this issue, but even broader dical circles and society at large had begun to take notice.
The hidden manipulator behind the scenes had intended to tarnish Yang Ping’s reputation to achieve their own agenda, but unexpectedly, the online operation had turned into a feature story on Yang Ping’s legendary tale instead.
Professor Su, who had been busy with surgery, had not yet had the chance to learn about the twists and turns of the Outstanding Young Talent voting incident. Since Nanchen was about to tell him, he had no interest in checking the ssages on his phone.
“Today, early in the morning, an anonymous paper appeared on Nandu dical University’s campus network. I don’t know if it erged last night or this morning, but it caused an uproar by dawn. The paper claid that Yang Ping was related to an academician, leading Nandu dical University to rig the process and reserve the Outstanding Young Talent spot for Yang Ping, casting the returning scholar Guan Ruyan as a victim of the rigged selection,” Nanchen said.
Nanchen initially wanted to start with the outco but decided to let Professor Su experience the twists in the story, so he began from the start.
“The article caused a sensation. It was rapidly shared on social dia platforms, with everyone expressing their outrage and demanding that Nandu dical University thoroughly investigate the insider dealings and vindicate Guan Ruyan.”
Upon hearing this, Professor Su’s eyes narrowed slightly, but he said nothing, revealing little on his face.
“Continue—”
Seeing Nanchen pause, Professor Su urged him to proceed.
“That’s not all; even stranger would be the eting being surreptitiously fild and broadcast live on the campus network and social dia. Guan Ruyan’s speech subtly implied he was a victim of the selection manipulation. He portrayed himself as magnanimous, stating that the Outstanding Young Talent title wasn’t important, and that he would be satisfied as long as he could serve the country. This statent pushed public anger to its peak. Such a promising talent, unconcerned with having the award taken from him, focused solely on scholarship—it’s not hard to imagine what the experts at the scene thought when they heard this. Voting for Yang Ping would an a rigged process, leaving them no choice but to vote for Guan Ruyan. It was a cunning and ruthless act of moral blackmail, using the tactics of online hatred to their extre.”
Nanchen paused again and sighed. Professor Su, without needing to check his phone, knew what had happened and waved his hand dismissively, saying, “No matter, we can discuss it next year. Yang Ping is still young. However, this behavior is highly dishonorable.”
Given that Yang Ping’s academic achievents were superior to Guan Ruyan’s in quality, and with many people willing to support him, his success seed almost certain. Yet, he had not anticipated such a despicable turn of events.
Professor Su picked up his teacup, took a sip, and even chewed the tea leaves in his mouth.
“Have you contacted Xiao Yang, by the way? Spend more ti chatting with him these days, give him so comfort. There will be other opportunities,” Professor Su reminded Nanchen.
“I haven’t finished yet,” Nanchen said, smiling as he continued.
“Yang Ping is quite indifferent in appearance, nonchalant, paying little heed to this eting. Do you know? Guan Ruyan’s presentation slides were elaborate. When it was Yang Ping’s turn to speak, he had nothing. Empty-handed, he stood on stage and only said a few words.”
“I don’t bla him; it’s just his nature. Busy with surgeries and research, he probably didn’t have ti for these things,” Professor Su defended his son-in-law.
Nanchen continued, “Yang Ping’s speech was just a few plain sentences, devoid of any flowery language. He said—my academic achievents are modest—I have 4 CNS papers published in ‘Science,’ one of which you all know of already, and the other three in the latest issue, which is already published. Everyone can search for them. Among these three papers, one is even a cover article.”
“Four? Didn’t he only have one ‘Science’ paper? Boasting without drafting, not considering the occasion – that doesn’t sound like him,” Professor Su couldn’t believe Yang Ping would make such a statent.
“You don’t believe it? I have the video,” Nanchen took out his phone to show the video to Professor Su.
Nanchen said, “As soon as he said this, everyone laughed at him. It was broadcast live. Who knows how many viewers there were, but his boasting beca a big joke.”
“Impossible! He never boasts. Either what he said is true, or sothing is wrong with this video, it has been tampered with,” Professor Su asserted conclusively.
Of course, Yang Ping couldn’t have been telling the truth, which ant the video must have been manipulated to vilify him purposely.
With slander, defamation, and now vilification against Yang Ping, Professor Su’s eyes narrowed again, pained by the thought of his son-in-law being ridiculed and shad by so many.
Seeing his father’s expression, Nanchen couldn’t help but feel satisfied; this was the effect he had hoped for.
“Professor Su, the strangest thing happened. The video is fine; Yang Ping’s words were all true. In the latest issue of ‘Science,’ Yang Ping published 3 papers at once, one of which was a cover story. The official website of ‘Science’ specifically issued an open letter to explain the situation, while Manstein introduced the papers,” Nanchen revealed.
