"Director Zhao, a pleasure to collaborate!" Yan Fei, having signed the last name, stood up and extended his hand towards the middle-aged man across from him, who looked back with anticipation.
"A pleasure to collaborate indeed!" Even through his glasses, one could see the excitement and expectation in Director Zhao's eyes as he vigorously shook Yan Fei's hand. "You've done a tremendous good for Yuzhou Province! Rest assured, we will definitely support this project with all our might, striving to yield research results at the earliest."
"We have to give it our full support!" chuckled an elderly man with graying hair next to Director Zhao. "Xiao Zhao, from now we've to work hard together, and make sure we don't fall too far behind our classmate Yan Fei. And, we're a bit short on conditions; we'll need to rely more on your efforts. Don't complain about being tired when the time comes!"
