China took scientific research very seriously.
Old Lu didn't want to waste Lu Zhou's time and wanted to show to his bosses that he was being diligent. The second day after the meeting, Lu Zhou received a call from Secretary Liu.
Lu Zhou felt that Secretary Liu was interesting even though he had only met him a handful of times. However, every time they met, it was like they were meeting as close friends.
After some small talk, Secretary Liu set a time and date with Lu Zhou on the phone.
In the same afternoon, Lu Zhou met Secretary Liu's assistant Zhao Zhengye; he wore glasses and looked very gentle.
Zhao Zhengye shook hands with Lu Zhou and politely said, "Hello, Professor Lu, I am Secretary Liu's assistant. You can call me Xiao Zhao."
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "You're older than me, I'll just call you Assistant Zhao."
"Sure." Assistant Zhao pointed and said, "This way please."
