But Director Fang's graduate student was a quick thinker. Seeing that there were quite a number of people in the team, he hurriedly suggested, "Uncle Er's Grilled Fish. Let's just go to Uncle Er's Grilled Fish. It's close by, the environment is nice, and the dishes are delicious too."
With just those few words, the graduate student Xiao Chen had fixed the location for his mentor, then proceeded to call to reserve a private room. Although they chose to dine at Uncle Er's Grilled Fish, they still set up several tables, and the expense was not small. Director Fang was in a good mood today and didn't mind spending the money; he had inadvertently found a passageway through the academic hierarchy—that was to remain forever the second-in-command at the Surgical Research Institute.
In the midst of exchanging toasts with apple cider vinegar, Director Fang finalized a strategic partnership with the Surgical Research Institute.
