The Republic of Heroes

The foreigner is Banting, who is from Canada and is a medical graduate. He originally planned to join the army and go to the European battlefield, but when he heard that insulin was successfully extracted in China, he changed his mind and came to this ancient country to find out.He was a little surprised when he saw Wu Xiaoliang for the first time. He even had doubts about the fact that the Chinese who successfully extracted insulin was so young, but when he communicated with himself in fluent English, these doubts were completely dispelled.

Banting made a life-changing decision to stay in China as Wu's assistant and learn from him.

Facing Ban Ting, Wu Xiaoliang felt a bit like a thief, after all, he stole the research results of this person a few years later.When he heard Banting's request to stay and be his assistant, he agreed without hesitation.

On February [-], the banquet hall of Fengtian Hotel was crowded with reporters from all over the country.On the east side of the hall, a half-person-high platform was set up, covered with a red carpet, and a row of tables were neatly arranged. In front of each table, there was a card with the name of the person written on it.People were suppressing their curiosity, the main character hadn't appeared at the venue for a long time, waiting made people become impatient, making loud noises from time to time.

On Daxi Main Street in Xiaoximenli, two Dongyang cars came rushing forward one after the other. Pedestrians dodged to both sides one after another, and those who failed to dodge were splashed with muddy water.

The two cars came to a stop at the entrance of Fengtian Hotel, and the car in front turned into the VIP parking space. The driver was full of joy and occupied the last space, looking proudly at the young chartered guest.He was not tall, he was wearing a black suit, his black leather shoes were polished shiny, and his hair was combed meticulously. It was Wu Xiaoliang.

The VIP parking area that used to be sparse in the past is full of Dongyang cars today. The drivers gathered together in groups of three or five. Seeing that there was a good show coming, they hurriedly told everyone to look over there.

The Dongyang driver, who was a little behind, looked frustrated. If he parked the car with those Kuhahas, he would have to bear the thunder and wrath of the master on the car. He hesitated and stood there not knowing what to do.

A person got out of the car. He was thin and tall, with an angry face. His long hair was combed to the left ear side. It was neatly polished with pomade. A few messy hairs were blown on his face due to the rush just now, and he quickly stroked it with his hands. tidy.

"Where is the wild boy? Are there any rules?" After saying that, he pointed at the driver,

"Go, let them get up and make room." The coachman didn't dare to move, and his attendant ran past panting and loudly, saying "Hey, get up and drive quickly, so my young master can stop."

Wu Xiaoliang has never been used to these domineering bullies, so he proudly said: "First come first, first come first, why let us go?"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Seeing that the other party was so disrespectful, he jumped up and scolded: "You wild boy, if you don't know how to praise, you will be able to eat and walk around!"

He went forward to grab Wu Xiaoliang's collar, and a yell came from behind:

"The third one, stop, don't enter the venue, what are you doing here!"

The tall and thin man shivered involuntarily, and quickly shrank back. He was most afraid of this half-brother, and his arrogance would immediately wither.

Another tall and thin man, but with two mustaches on his lips, he didn't look at his younger brother who was silent, and smiled at Wu Xiaoliang: "I, Feng Tianbao and Tang Gan Maozhong, my younger brother is rude, please don't take it for granted! "

The mustache had a smile on his face, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes. Wu Xiaoliang didn't want to offend others, "It was originally a misunderstanding, so don't get in the way. I'm in a hurry to take the first step."

A trace of displeasure flashed in Mustache's eyes, and he nodded slightly.

Wu Xiaoliang lowered his head and hurried away, not wanting to bump into someone head-on, with a soft fragrance, she was a woman.The woman quickly bowed her head and apologized: "I'm sorry, sir." Wu Xiaoliang also hurriedly nodded in return.

"Huh? Are you Mr. Wu from Liangda Pharmaceutical Factory?" The woman stretched out her hand with surprise on her face, "Hi, I'm Shen Zibing, a reporter from Dongya Shimbun!" It was a handshake from the West.Wu Xiaoliang was amazed, this is rare in the conservative Fengtian City, he stretched out his right hand to lightly shake each other, and praised:

"Miss has good eyesight!" The corner of the woman's mouth was raised, slightly proud.

Wu Xiaoliang was thinking about the reception, and took out his pocket watch to check the time. He was already half an hour late.

"I'm sorry, miss. I'm in a hurry. I'll see you later." He hurried into the restaurant, leaving the woman behind him speechless. He forgot that she was also a reporter, and he couldn't afford to offend her.

Shen Zibing bit her lip and stomped her feet. Since she was a child, no one could ignore her, but this person...

On the way, Wu Xiaoliang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that "East Asia News" has something to do with the Japanese?It seems that we have to stay away from this woman in the future.

Entering the venue, Wu Xiaoliang immediately became the focus of attention. The reporters did not think that he was playing a big game. The times were different, and their focus was not here.Sun Dingchen went out in person and invited Wu Xiaoliang to the rostrum. Wu Xiaoliang returned the courtesy again and again, and then helped the old man slowly onto the stage.Fengtian local reporters were in an uproar.Who is Sun Dingchen, the founder of Yuchang Bank, a respected gentry in the city, it is so grand for him to lead the way for Wu Xiaoliang, and he also respects this young man in awe.

Everyone was seated according to their nameplates. Banting and Celier of the Sino-French Industrial Bank were specially arranged by Wu Xiaoliang on the rostrum. In this era, the role of foreigners cannot be underestimated. That's a strong guarantee.

Sun Dingchen waved his hands to signal the scene to be quiet, then cleared his throat, "Today, all the elites of the newspaper industry worked hard and gathered together. You have worked hard." I want to tell you all good news, the persistent illness of thirst has been conquered, manager Wu of the Liangda Pharmaceutical Factory is unparalleled, and his achievements will last for thousands of years..."

After Sun Dingchen made a short opening speech, Wu Xiaoliang started a long speech. He would make up the story bizarrely and vividly. The hall gradually became quiet until there was no sound. Finally, he briefly introduced diabetes and the significance of insulin to diabetes.After the speech, everyone at the scene responded with warm applause, which lasted for a long time, and then the staff at the venue began to distribute beautifully printed booklets.

Sitting in the second row under the stage was a thin tall man with oily hair and a mustache. The mustache flipped through the booklet in his hand and thought, "So it's him."

Some reporters in the audience have already started asking questions.

"Hi, Mr. Wu, I'm a reporter from Shenbao. May I ask if the invention of insulin means the end of diabetes?"

"Good question, here I want to explain a misunderstanding of everyone. First of all, insulin is not a medicine. The cause of diabetes is that there is a problem with the insulin secreted by the islets in the human body, which affects the metabolism of sugar in the human body. Insulin is to solve this problem. Therefore, insulin is something that is inherent in the human body. If you don’t understand this point, you can read the brochure I sent to you for a detailed introduction.”

"Mr. Wu, I am a reporter from Beijing News. When will your Liangda Pharmaceutical Factory open? Is the new drug you have developed ready to be used?"

This question hit Wu Xiaoliang's heart,

"Liangda Pharmaceutical Factory has started formal operation," Yi pointed to Banting beside him.

"This is Banting, my right-hand man. Insulin has started mass production, and anyone in need is welcome to come and order. Liangda Pharmaceutical Factory also produces aspirin, which is very effective for colds, headaches, fever and other diseases... ..."

……

Wu Xiaoliang said almost everything he wanted to say through the mouth of the reporter.

"Hello, Mr. Wu, I'm a reporter from Dongya Shimbun. May I ask you a little bit about your age?" The reporter who asked the question was Shen Zibing whom Wu Xiaoliang bumped into at the hotel entrance.

Wu Xiaoliang didn't hide anything,

"I was born in the 25th year of Guangxu, Miss Reporter, you can do some calculations."

There was laughter in the hall.
