It was true: that Eastern Country had given them the perfect opportunity to fire back at them.
How could animal gene experts from Western countries pass up such a good opportunity?
Besides, their opponent had clearly made a huge mistake.
Everyone who studied dinosaurs knew that dinosaur genes couldn't be extracted from dinosaur fossils, and pig genes certainly couldn't fill in missing dinosaur gene sequences.
The people of the Eastern Country were talking nonsense.
Now was the perfect time to call them out. They could defend the dignity of science, embarrass the Eastern Country, and make a name for themselves all at once.
For them, there had never been a better chance to gain fame.
For a while, animal gene experts around the world condemned Qinglin Laboratory, making it the hottest international news.
If the matter wasn't handled well, it would surely have a major impact on the country's scientific research and might even undermine public confidence.
Mr. Lu, however, wasn't worried at all.
There was no need to worry.
They already had the results. Why should they care about people who hadn't even gotten through the door, just because they were making noise?
Seeing animal gene experts from around the world kicking up a fuss, Mr. Lu knew he couldn't keep indulging them. He called in his secretary and instructed him, "Make the press conference more impressive. Find out which animal gene experts are making the most noise, record their names, and send each of them an invitation. Have them come in person."
"Understood, sir." The secretary nodded, then went out to make arrangements.
Invitations were quickly sent out around the world.
The recipients were some of the most renowned animal gene researchers in the world, and also the ones making the biggest fuss online. Bob was among them.
