"Discipline, discipline!"
I don't know whose voice sounded. The man who spoke earlier also stopped and found his seat under the guidance of the steward with curly hair. Zheng Jianguo smiled at her small face full of looking color: "thank you."
"Welcome to this flight. I'm the steward of this flight -"
As the steward began to introduce himself, Zheng Jianguo looked at dozens of empty rows of seats. In addition to his group, there were several obviously curious international friends. At this time, a voice came from behind: "steward, don't you send Maotai on your flight?"
Frowning slightly, I looked at the faint lights outside the side window. The two-story terminal is not as impressive as the post and Telecommunications Hotel in Shanxian County. Who would have thought that this is the terminal of the capital airport. T1 is still a construction site. At this time, the voice of the stewardess sounded: "no delivery now, but it can be provided at dinner time --"
"Forget it."
When an unhappy voice came, Zheng Jianguo saw the boarding car driving away next to him. The old people on the ground shook hands with their international friends and left. The plane trembled slightly. The voice of the steward sounded: "passengers, welcome to the international flight. Please fasten your seat belts -"
The ZLA sound with a slight current pulse appeared with the voice of the steward. Zheng Jianguo felt his seat belt and tied himself to the chair. In his previous life, he had flown or climbed the Great Wall in the great capital. The idea flashed in his mind. The plane vibrated slightly, and the engine sound from the window gradually increased. Just when the chair under his ass trembled, The trembling suddenly disappeared.
"Dear passengers, the plane has entered a stable flight state. You can loosen your seat belt and move freely. In addition, we will distribute souvenirs of this flight to you. I hope passengers will like it."
With the Mandarin Mandarin playing, a steward pushes a car around the end of the corridor. Zheng Jianguo tilts his head and looks at the things on the cart. Eye opening sensation is suddenly felt: Champagne brandy beer Baijiu - and smoke and food?
"I think the souvenir is a box of pandas. I heard it used to be China, but it's not as good as Maotai -"
When a faint murmur came, Zheng Jianguo sat up straight, took out an English book from his arms and began to read it. Soon there was a faint smell of smoke in front of him, and the previous murmur also came: "is there China? I want to pack China. The little panda can't get used to it. "
"Sorry, we only prepared pandas for this flight. Do you need them?"
"Well, why is it so small -"
"This is for commemoration. It's specially customized."
"Didn't you say you had flown before?"
"Well, I was a little more than this."
"Our airlines are unified."
"Ah, that's me. I remember wrong."
A burst of awkward muttering came. Zheng Jianguo saw a small car in the aisle outside. He glanced at the tobacco, wine, sugar and tea above, and said, "no coffee?"
"Well, the coffee is freshly ground. Do you need it?"
The steward's eyebrows and eyes were picked. She had flown a plane for more than ten years, but it was the first time she saw Chinese people asking for coffee. Her eyes couldn't help sweeping over his face. She saw Zheng Jianguo nodding and saying, "OK, give me a cup of coffee, don't you want money?"
"No extra charge, all drinks and wines are free."
When the steward saw Zheng Jianguo nodding, he turned and waved to his companion in the distance. The latter quickly came in front of him and heard that he wanted coffee. He also looked at Zheng Jianguo and turned away. The steward immediately smiled: "please wait a moment."
"Thank you!"
Zheng Jianguo looked at the commemorative version of cigarettes in his hand. He was also an old smoker in his last life. He just changed his cigarettes into coffee after becoming a director. One is for health reasons and the other is that his salary has improved. However, all he can drink are instant coffee. He has never drunk authentic freshly ground coffee.
Looking at the smoke coming from the back seat, Zheng Jianguo felt that these people were really dying. Just looking at the fact that many of these people were smoking, and the flight attendants looked like a common sight, he began to worry about the safety of his flight this time: "if anyone's cigarette butts didn't be put out on the carpet -"
I don't know whether it's a groundless worry or a grievance. Zheng Jianguo's spirit is highly tense after drinking bitter coffee. Fortunately, there are many people like him. The voice of the people in front hasn't stopped since they got on the plane. After the plane landed at Karachi International Airport of Pakistan railway after a bumpy ride, looking at the brightly lit terminal outside the window, someone said: "there are so many planes outside, More than our capital airport, and so many lights are on. "
"I know that. There are no planes at the capital airport at night, so the lights are turned off."
With the sound of discussion, the one who woke up from a deep sleep saw the brightly lit airport outside and said curiously, "here we are?"
"Morning, the flight attendant said that outside is Pakistan's capital airport. The plane needs refueling."
The voice that said he couldn't get used to Panda cigarettes said before, and then continued: "but we only brought 50 dollars per head this time. It seems that we have 53 people?"
"Three comrades were not sent by the Ministry, but were contacted by other units."
A stuffy voice then said, and the voice of the little panda came again: "I'm thinking about a question. We have money, but do you want food stamps to eat in America?"
"Well, no one seems to know."
The stuffy voice hesitated to say that Zheng Jianguo didn't know whether he was choked by the smell of smoke again, or by the content of these chat. After coughing twice, he raised his hand to the steward in the aisle: "please renew your glass."
As one of the parties contacted by three other units, Zheng Jianguo knows that he is also different from the other two who are in charge of contacting by Yanjing University. These foreign students who are either studying for three generations or rich for three generations and rich for four generations all have extraordinary backgrounds. Of course, compared with these people, his origin is more extraordinary, so even from the beginning to the present, he has no other ideas, Not to mention that we are not in an academic circle, age alone is a gully.
Just when Zheng Jianguo thought he could keep this state all the way to his destination, the plane landed at Frankfurt airport when dozens of people were staring at the brightly lit night scene of Paris. After they followed the text to guide the plane, the people who had been waiting in the transfer hall for a long time found him: "Zheng Jianguo, Hello, I'm a staff member of our embassy, Some friend groups entrust me to ask you for your signature. Can you help me? "
"This is no problem."
Put down your heart and took the time magazine in the other party's hand. Zheng Jianguo wrote down his name quickly on it, as if three printed regular characters fell. The visitor looked at his face and said with a smile: "the world newspaper said that you were the first to send your mother tongue to Lancet. This is the first non-English paper published by this magazine since its inception, Although I don't understand medical problems, we are all proud of you for winning glory for the country. "
"Thank you. I just did what I should do as a person!"
Zheng Jianguo looked at the man and took the book to his hand. He signed and said, so he listened to him continue to say, "then why do you have to come out?"
"Oh, you said this question?"
As soon as the pen in his hand stopped, Zheng Jianguo quickly continued to finish writing and said with a smile, "after writing, I'll give you a tape. You'll know why I came out."
"Tape?!"
After Zheng Jianguo finished writing quickly, he put his hand into his underwear pocket, took out a tape in a plastic box and said, "take it back and listen to the dialogue between some people and me. Although these people are only journalists, they are very representative in China, okay?"
"Are these people journalists?"
Holding the tape in his hand, he looked back and forth. When the visitor raised his head, his smooth cheeks were full of question marks: "which unit?"
"They said it was from Xinhua. I didn't dare read the letter of introduction. Maybe it was from other units?"
Zheng Jianguo smiled, bent down and lifted the handbag at his feet and said, "later, I sent a copy to the head office, but there was no reply. I hope you can find the answer you want in it. Oh, by the way, no other unit in our country knows that my Chinese thesis was published in Lancet except the Qi provincial medical college where I am."
"Did you send a copy to the head office?"
The visitor's expression slightly changed on his smooth cheeks. He looked down at what he had in his hand, then raised his head and wanted to speak. He saw Zheng Jianguo open his mouth and said, "I had the opportunity to give some leaders. After all, we were received and seen off by many leaders before going abroad, but I didn't give them because I was afraid of adding trouble to them. They were very busy, right?"
"Well, the leaders are very busy."
The visitor's eyebrows became tighter and tighter. Looking down at the tape in his hand, he suddenly brightened in front of him and said, "then give it to me -"
"Even if I let you listen, you don't have the ability to deal with it."
Zheng Jianguo smiled, his little dark face full of Brilliance: "of course, I hope you can help me deal with these things. They are disgusting. If you don't do business all day, it's so easy to do evil things."
"Well, what are you talking about? The ambassador over there treats you to breakfast. "
A voice came from the side. Zheng Jianguo looked at each other's big face, turned and walked towards the crowd next to him. Seeing that everyone was eating a hamburger, he also took a share to the side, opened it and nodded happily: "good, really fragrant ~"
The man who couldn't handle it left with the signed Time magazine. Zheng Jianguo had a rest after eating and drinking enough. He took his bag and poured water into the toilet along the guide sign. He simply washed. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he found that everyone was looking at himself. Soon, he didn't wait for him to sit down in the lounge chair. The team leader ran over: "Jianguo, Did you go to the bathroom? "
"Huh? Yes! "
Finding that he didn't want to be tied back to China, Zheng Jianguo was relieved and nodded: "he washed his face and brushed his teeth inside."
"No money?"
The team leader blinked his eyes with three or four crow's feet. Zheng Jianguo asked, "do you want money to go to the bathroom?"? No one asked me for it. "
"Ah, I see."
After the leader asked clearly, he turned and returned to the crowd. Zheng Jianguo, who sat down, saw three or four people go to the toilet in groups of five or six. A strange idea came to his mind: "do you think there is a charge for going to the toilet in China? Then whoever contracts the airport toilet will make a fortune -- "
As if to confirm Zheng Jianguo's idea, soon a group of people you came to and I went to the toilet in turn. His mind also showed their previous worries: "what if you go to America for dinner without food stamps?"
"Everyone, I just received a notice that there are reporters waiting for us in the airport over there. Now I mean to discuss with you and see how to deal with their interview."
The leader stood up, raised his hands and said after greeting everyone's attention. Suddenly, with his voice, there was a discussion: "we can't even speak English. How can we interview?"
"Can people ask in Mandarin?"
"That's impossible. It can only be English."
"Half of you don't understand, captain. What's your opinion?"
"Don't say you don't understand. Who can say?"
"It's impossible to communicate with paper and pen?"
"That would be a shame. We were all selected -"
"Hehe, why don't you find a representative?"
"Find the best spoken English -"
"And say what?"
"Say what you ask."
"What if you ask the wrong question and say the wrong thing?"
"Simply, don't make a statement about what you have and what you don't have."
"Alas, that's a good idea. Write a statement and read it. Don't accept private interviews."
"That's a good idea. It also avoids being asked some questions and saying the wrong things."
"That's it. Let's see how to write and what to write."
One after another, the people spoke fiercely and cordially. Zheng Jianguo got off the plane more than ten hours later and transferred to Washington. After going through the customs clearance formalities, he heard this statement with the suggestions of 52 people: "the people of the Republic are a great people, and the American people are also a great people, We have traveled thousands of miles to the United States not only to learn advanced science and technology, but also to promote the friendship between the Chinese and American people -- "
After the statement was read out in Kaka's flash, everyone wanted to move on. Suddenly, a high and eager name came next to them. The authentic Mandarin immediately attracted the attention of the people and reporters. Zheng Jianguo saw that a personal figure suddenly ran out of the crowd and ran to the person who called from a distance. They said something and hugged each other tightly.
Just as the reporters raised their cameras and quickly clicked the shooting to blind Zheng Jianguo, another round Mandarin came: "Zheng ~ Jian ~ Guo!"
"Huh?"
Subconsciously, when Zheng Jianguo turned to look at him, he found that a reporter had picked up the camera and aimed at him in the distance. An American girl with blond hair and blue eyes in a small suit was aiming at him with the microphone in her hand. A series of English poured out from the red lips: "Oh, audience friends, this is obviously the 16-year-old medical student, Zheng Jianguo, I'm Emma, the host of CBS. Now we're broadcasting your arrival live. Can you say hello to the audience in front of our TV station? "
