“You are too hypocritical and shameless. From your words, I can sense that you think only Americans count as human beings while Chinese people don’t. You like Chinese ancient sayings, let me give you another one: ‘Playing the harlot and yet erecting a monument to chastity.’ It refers to you.”
“Don’t understand? Let me translate for you: being a whore and still wanting to have a magnificent tombstone.”
This time, Harrison Clark’s words were even more striking than before in the previous timeline.
He vaguely remembered the historical materials describing how he exploded at that time, but at the same time, he had a different mindset facing the same situation and wouldn’t adopt the exact same attitude.
The root of his anger came from the sudden feeling that these people were unworthy of their descendants like Scott, Gaius, Lawrence, and Levi Martin.
The seemingly ordinary confrontation in their small meeting today led to a global predicament for the Summit Research Institute’s recruitment efforts for the next two years. Judging from the butterfly effect’s magnification, their hindrance to the progress of civilization was far-reaching and truly sinful.
Ideological hatred doesn’t shift due to individual will.
Because humans are social animals, it’s hard to be independent of the world around them and will always be influenced by their surroundings.
No matter how intelligent or rational a person is, or how many books they read, if their parents, family, and friends have instilled in them from childhood the dangers of another country and the selfishness of its people, the doubt and discrimination deep in their hearts will inevitably become more entrenched as their knowledge increases, further reinforcing their convictions in their interactions with others.
The things used as examples for instilling this mindset may not always be lies. All it takes is deliberately ignoring the good aspects of the truth and focusing on the ugly side, and hatred and prejudice will naturally take shape.
After growing up with prejudices, they will keep talking about the same things at the dinner table with their next generation and subconsciously doing the same things, ultimately forming regional prejudices that last for hundreds or even thousands of years.
It’s because of people like Raulsen, Ethan Evans, and Nathan Stanford that the elimination of prejudice among future generations faces significant obstacles, leading to extremely short-lived vicious competition. Otherwise, Harrison Clark might have succeeded in the previous timeline.
The B-word certainly stirred up the fire in those present. As soon as Harrison’s words came out, the crowd exploded. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Even Lillian Aniston’s attempts to mediate seemed futile.
Renowned academic big shots around the globe scolded Harrison in anger.
He only smiled and watched these people who thought themselves rational and neutral but were actually living in the walled city of prejudice built by their environment.
But when it came to cursing, they were ultimately not professionals, and their physical constitution couldn’t keep up. Harrison remained expressionless and emotionless throughout, leaving them feeling unsatisfied, as if their full-force punches landed on cotton. Gradually, they closed their mouths one after another.
“Are you all done?” Harrison smiled. “Alright then. French biologist Pasteur once said, ‘Science knows no country, but scientists have a homeland.’ I don’t entirely deny this statement, but you have taken it too far by being so extreme. Excessive extremism leads to the hypocritical, selfish personalities hidden beneath the appearance of scholars, and you’re deeply entrenched in them without even being aware.”
“What I said is so obvious that I don’t believe you couldn’t understand it. The truth should become clearer through debate, but it’s only because there is a voice inside your heads telling you to pretend not to understand even if you do.”
“But I can tell you explicitly. No matter how great your achievements, your names will always be mixed in human history. Your descendants will pay a price far beyond your imagination because of your selfishness.”
Dr. Nathan Stanford: “Are you threatening us? Who are you representing to threaten us?”
Harrison shrugged, “See, your prejudices are so blatant that you don’t even know how to hide them. Don’t think of me as narrow-minded like you. My vision has never stayed on the gains and losses of a single city, land, or even a country, let alone on Earth. There is only one way out for humanity: to step foot into space, and that day is not too far.”
“Furthermore, I will continue to poach talent and not just from the Chinese community. In my domain, regardless of skin color, ethnicity, or where you come from and where you will be buried after death, I have only one goal: to get more people to do more things.”
Harrison eventually made a decision.
He knew where the narrow-mindedness of these people came from and how it would develop.
In the past, he was indifferent and believed he couldn’t change it.
But having experienced the previous timeline and witnessing the nearly 400-year-long proxy war, he decided to try to do something.
“I support competition, but not the narrow-minded competition you practice. I can even tell you the fields I will focus on next. The names of projects I’m about to carry out alone will tell you everything. If you can’t accept it, come and compete with me.”
Seeing him suddenly bringing out real-life examples, the crowd immediately shut up.
Dr. Ethan Evans chimed in at the right moment, “The United States has the most comprehensive and creative research system and the best researchers in the world. No matter what you want to research, we don’t need to care about you.”
Harrison smirked, “Really? Ultra-high computing power carbon-structured computer chip ultra-pure carbon monomer technology, no attenuation and infinite circulation use of large-capacity battery technology, low attenuation microwave high-load power transmission technology, and the truly unattainable quantum computer programming concept…don’t you want those?”
The meeting room suddenly fell silent.
They were shocked when they heard Harrison’s plans.
Reason told them that he might be bluffing.
But emotion told them that the man who wrote ‘The Madman’s Conjectures Collection’ might actually pull it off..
