Chapter 290 No Room

Qiu Huoming had already handed in his first answer sheet, so he could use the remaining time to strive for perfection. He simply used the more difficult 'chrome plate' to start making the 'mask plate'.

Master Wang knew that he came to learn, and since the leader had greeted him, he continued to teach him patiently.

The process of making "mask plates" with different materials is different, but the principles are the same.

Qiu Huoming is studying seriously here.

Over there, Chen Liang was also making his first "mask plate". When doing such delicate work, being absent-minded was the most taboo. While he was working, he was thinking about what Qiu Huoming and the others said at noon. There was a slight error in his hand movements, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, he could make up for it later. He was also a proven academic master, so he calmed down and stopped thinking about it.

Time passed slowly in the competition between the two groups, and in the blink of an eye it was the final day to submit the results.

Originally Qiu Huoming was in the lead, but Jiang Yi's mistake in operation damaged the chip. Fortunately, another "mask" made by Qiu Huoming could be used, and everyone went through all the processes again.

When the last day arrived, the two teams handed in their finished products almost at the same time.

The final location of the assessment is in the inspection workshop.

Qiu Huoming said with a smile on his face.

Professor Gu stood up in a flash. "You know shit. He is innovative! He designed an almost completely new circuit diagram! Can you do it? Tell me again, can you do it?"

Chen Liang's mind exploded, and his entire mind was stuck on the word Professor Gu said: "lose".

"Wow, you don't even believe what the teacher says and you have to look at the data, right?!" Professor Gu wanted to give him a blow on the head, but on second thought, this kid's stubbornness, his character of only recognizing data and not obeying authority, is also commendable.

While waiting for the result, Chen Liang walked closer to Qiu Huoming. When he thought about how Qiu Huoming had deceived him before, he felt a little angry.

Chen Liang was stunned. He looked at Qiu Huoming and then at Professor Gu who was furious. "But him, I can't do it, how can he do it?"

Chen Liang's group and Qiu Huoming's group were waiting on the side. Professor Gu, Professor Li, and Chang Gong were all present.

Professor Li then walked up to Qiu Huoming and said, "We won't eat in the cafeteria today. Let's go to Quanjude and eat roast duck!"

Chen Liang walked over quickly. He was also very curious about what Qiu Huoming and the others had made. Because of the competition, both sides were forbidden to inquire about each other's progress or check their finished products.

"What if we win?" Zhao Youxin asked, raising his head.

He held back his anger and handed the test results in Chang Gong's hand, as well as the circuit diagrams of both parties, to Chen Liang, "Take a good look, where is the gap?"

Jiang Yi blushed and explained, "Yes, we are ahead. It's all my fault. I didn't have good skills and broke the things..."

"Let me explain to you. In this competition, Qiu Huoming restored one of our samples, but he didn't restore it exactly as it was..."

"Chen Liang! Be quiet. It's not shameful to lose. But if you keep making excuses, people will look down on you!" Professor Gu felt his eyebrows twitching. The student whom he liked in the past now seemed quite hateful.

"Impossible, don't even think about it." Chen Liang answered almost without thinking.

Chen Liang said aggrievedly: "Professor Gu, you heard it too. He can even say such nonsense, and he even said it word for word. I don't believe him at all."

These people were holding back their energy when Chang Gong finally called out, "All of you, come here..."

Wu Dali was a little dumbfounded, and belatedly called out, "Thank you, Professor Li."

The other students did not have as good a relationship with Professor Gu as he did. Although they did not dare to speak out, they were obviously unconvinced.

He may be temperamental about other things, but he is very serious about the competition. If he is not allowed to watch, he really won't watch it.

Chen Liang got closer and saw his opponent's finished product for the first time. He exclaimed, "This thing is wrong!"

"Then just wait. If you win, you can apologize to us. If you lose? Hey, I say the same thing. We can't lose..."

He looked at Qiu Huoming and sneered, "I almost got caught that day. I really thought you were ahead. You guys are quite cunning..."

"How is that possible? The time is so short!" Chen Liang had just finished speaking when the tall and thin man behind him suddenly spoke up, "It's not impossible. Their teacher can give them a copy temporarily. I encountered this kind of thing when I went to take an exam outside last time. People in small places just don't follow the rules..."

Chen Liang's face flushed. "Okay, if you want me to admit it, you have to give me more data..."

Qiu Huoming said leisurely: "Why don't we change the blueprint?"

The youngest, Jiang Yi, and Qiao Yuxiang immediately jumped up and said, "Thank you, Professor Li!"

Professor Gu shook his head. "Maybe there is something wrong with my teaching. Chen Liang, you know that there are always people better than you."

Zhao Youxin stiffened his neck and said angrily: "Speak more clearly, what's wrong with us people from a small place!"

Chen Liang muttered, "If it's not restored to its original state, then it's a semi-finished product. If I had known this earlier, I could have..."

"They cheated!" Chen Liang said angrily, "The finished product is different from ours."

"Is it so difficult for you to admit that others are better than you? There are some geniuses in this world who are beyond the reach of others. You have to acknowledge them before you can catch up with them. You can refuse to admit defeat, but... you cannot discredit your worthy opponent because of this. You can take him as your goal instead of questioning him non-stop here..."

"That's a good excuse. When the results come out, you two..." Chen Liang pointed at Qiu Huoming and Zhao Youxin and said, "Let's settle our accounts together..."

Chang Gong turned his gaze towards Chen Liang and his group, "Your performance was not bad, but you did lose."

Did he lose? He stood there blankly, silent.

Chen Liang was angry when he saw him. He turned his face away and said, "Okay, I'll let you be stubborn for now. You'll know when the result comes out."

He pulled Qiu Huoming over and said, "Huoming drew this blueprint on the spot stroke by stroke! Are you going to erase his efforts with just one sentence?!"

Chen Liang and the others immediately burst into laughter.

"The certificate will be mailed to you later. You performed very well this time."

Chang Gong held the test data in his hand and said, "Today, the three of us judges unanimously decided that the winning team of this competition is Qiu Huoming and Zhao Youxin..." He reported the names of several team members and continued:

Professor Gu snorted coldly, "Be quiet!"

Professor Li shook his head, "You can't thank me, you should thank Professor Gu!"

Professor Gu turned his head to look at him, stretched out his finger and pointed, "I knew you were waiting here, so let's go early, the space over there is tight, ask Lao Zhou to come along..."

"Are you so straightforward today?" Professor Li originally thought that he would hesitate for a while.

"I'm not happy any day."

Chen Liang and his team over there took a rough look at the data and drawings.

Chen Liang exhaled, returned the information in his hand to Chang Gong, and asked with a shameless face: "Professor Gu, can we also go eat roast duck?"

Professor Gu finally couldn't bear it anymore, stretched out his finger, and tapped him on the forehead, "Go back now, go wherever you need to go, don't hang around in front of me..."

Chen Liang took a step back. He didn't dare to refute. He followed a few teammates and was about to walk out when he suddenly stopped.

Then he quickly walked to Qiu Huoming and Zhao Youxin, bowed first, and then said: "I keep my word, I'm sorry."

This person is not a bad person, he is just a little arrogant. Qiu Huoming and Zhao Youxin looked at each other, and he reached out and patted Chen Liang on the shoulder, "Okay, don't take it seriously. You are welcome to come to our South China Institute of Technology in the future..."

Chen Liang's eyes were clear. He looked at Qiu Huoming and nodded, "I understand. I'll leave then."

Professor Li over there contacted the editor-in-chief last week through the factory phone. He quickly reported the destination, then hung up the phone and hurried over, "Let's go, it's all settled."

Professor Gu touched his wallet and said with a wry smile: "I will be starving for the next month..."

Professor Li showed no mercy. "The bonus was just given out before the New Year. Don't think I don't know. Go now. Don't waste time."

They walked out, and Qiu Huoming and his group quickly followed.

Chang Gong carefully locked up the relevant information and samples of the competition, then quickly chased after him.

Still on the bus, Professor Li asked casually, "Lao Gu, do you not care about your students anymore?"

"Chen Liang and the others are locals, and they are more familiar with this area than I am..." Professor Gu looked indifferent.

"That's good." Professor Li glanced at his students, then turned around and continued talking to Professor Gu in a low voice.

Qiu Huoming sat by the window, and next to him was Zhao Youxin. There were few people today, so everyone sat far away. Behind him was Qiao Yuxiang, and next to her was Teacher Xuan. The others sat far away...

The winter sun was still shining. He glanced at his watch. It was 4:3 in the afternoon. Without the pressure of the competition, Qiu Huoming calmly began to look around this ancient city...

The roads in Beijing are almost all straight and wide. Quanjude’s front store is located in the city.

When the car drove into the city, it was rush hour. Qiu Huoming looked at the huge crowd of bicycles and immediately thought of the song he had sold.

Zhao Youxin leaned over and said, "Wow, there are so many cars, but it's not crowded. How wide must the road be..."

"Hey, young man, you don't know that some roads are very narrow. Take this main road for example, it is indeed wide..." the driver in front said.

"Like the Quanjude you are going to today, in the early years, you could choose your own duck, and then every step was performed in front of you. Those chefs were really good... When you go there today, there are two old chefs with the best skills, and they have even been on our radio program..."

The driver started talking without stopping, and began to introduce the car to them in a very eloquent manner.

"Oh, Master, you know a lot." Chang Gong said with a smile: "I have lived here for so many years, and today I have learned a lot..."

"I have to thank Professor Gu. If it weren't for his treat, I wouldn't be willing to come to such a high-end place normally..." Professor Li said leisurely.

Professor Gu turned his head and looked out the window in silence.

His heart ached a little, and the menu of Quanjude passed through his mind...

Half a month's salary is definitely gone.

The car stopped under an antique gatehouse.

Chang Gong led the group out of the car.

The driver turned around and said to them: "I'll pick you up here in two hours..."

Chang Gong responded with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work."

The car sped away, and as everyone walked in, they heard the waiter apologetically explain to them, "Comrade, today's seat is full. Why don't you wait for more than an hour, or come back another day?"

Qiu Huoming saw a row of stoves covered with white tiles in front of him. The aroma of duck was everywhere. There were tables and chairs around. Everyone was dressed neatly, and there were a few foreigners among them.

Professor Li's face darkened, and Professor Gu laughed, "This is not what I arranged. It seems..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard someone calling his name not far away. He turned around and saw Editor-in-Chief Zhou standing in a corner, leaning over to greet him.

Professor Li immediately became excited, "Brother Zhou is really good, let's go, Lao Gu..."

Professor Gu forced a smile and said, "Everyone is lucky."

Everyone sat down. The round table was just the right size for 9 people, with enough space left for serving the food.

The menu was delivered, and Professor Gu handed it to Professor Li, "Come on, order."

Qiu Huoming glanced at the menu and was immediately shocked. A roast duck cost only 8 to 10 yuan, and there were a variety of other dishes, which were quite expensive.

Professor Li looked at the menu and passed it to Editor-in-Chief Zhou. "You are a food connoisseur, order some."

Editor Zhou smiled slightly, "Then I will be disrespectful to refuse..."

"Comrade waiter, please come over and take your order."

Qiu Huoming was watching the chef who was rotating the roast duck on a long pole in front of the stove. There were 4 or 5 ducks hanging in one stove, each of them was plump and shiny.

Editor Zhou was already taking orders. "We have a large group. Give me a fatter duck, an extra pound of lotus leaf pancake, an extra portion of scallion and ginger, and some duck bones for soup. Also, give me some spicy chicken, mu shu pork, and mushroom bamboo shoots..."

Editor-in-Chief Zhou was not polite and listed several dishes in one breath. For each dish he listed, Professor Gu silently calculated the price in his mind.

Finally, he heard Editor-in-Chief Zhou say, "Serve us a large portion of white rice at the end. Okay, that's all..." He then breathed a sigh of relief.

The waiter took the menu and left quickly.

Not long after, they saw someone coming over with a roasted duck. This was for them to take a look at first...

Then the old chef came over, slicing the duck in front of everyone, then arranged it neatly, put it on a plate, and served it up.

Professor Gu said, "Let's eat..."

"Wait a moment, let me teach you how to eat it..." Professor Li was afraid that these students would waste the food, so he immediately took the dough and demonstrated how to eat roast duck.

Qiu Huoming had eaten it before, but the other students and Teacher Xuan were here for the first time. When they saw this scene, they were extremely curious and began to imitate it carefully.

After a while, everyone praised him and even praised Professor Gu.

Professor Gu felt a little better now. He was unlucky today. Not only did he lose the battle, but he also lost the battle. Fortunately, they still remembered the well-digger when they drank the water...
