Ling Ziqian frowned and shook his head firmly, "A cautious ship sails for ten thousand years!"
When he was in the country, many suspicious individuals were doing everything possible to find opportunities to eliminate Ji Yuan. The reasoning behind this idea was twofold: one was to hinder the progress of the chip project, and the other was to remove a potential threat.
Moreover, if Ji Yuan were attacked domestically, it would be very difficult to identify the real culprit, as America could easily use its military as a cover. Even if the Eastern power eventually discovered that the hand behind it was American, with a long history of residence in America and even work experience in certain departments there, both sides would have endless entanglements.
America could even flatly deny involvement and turn the tables on the Eastern power, accusing it of failing to find the culprit and fabricating evidence instead. They could then release pre-prepared "evidence" to the public, flooding the world with narratives detrimental to the Eastern power.
However, in America, especially at hotels arranged by official channels, if anything were to happen, America would be held accountable! Everyone knows that the Eastern power is a thorn in America's side, but the rules on the surface still need to be followed.
If scientists from the Eastern superpower were invited to a conference hosted by Country M, and something went wrong at that critical moment, America would immediately become the prime suspect. This would be akin to directly flipping the table with the Eastern superpower!
"I am responsible for ensuring your personal safety, and we must never let our guard down," Ling Ziqian said. Although he was a soldier, his political instincts were quite sharp. "We cannot guarantee whether there is a third party deliberately provoking a confrontation between America and our country."
The saying "When the Clams Fight, the Fisherman Benefits" has been true throughout history! If America and the Eastern superpower were to engage in direct conflict, the impact on the global order would undoubtedly be immense. Certain hidden ambitious individuals could very well take advantage of this situation to achieve their ulterior motives.
This potential third party could be Russia, or even France, Germany, Iran, and so on... Any country with a certain level of strength could potentially transform from a pawn into a player.
"Don't worry, I know what’s at stake and won’t leave your sight," Ji Yuan assured with a serious nod.
As dusk gradually fell, research teams from various countries began to check into their accommodations. The American military also imposed a lockdown in the nearby neighborhoods; several homeless individuals attempting to approach were quickly driven away. At least on the surface, America was doing quite well in preventing any suspicious characters from getting close to the Hilton Hotel.
Until seven in the evening, a knock echoed at the door.
Ling Ziqian peered through the peephole and discovered several experts and scholars dressed in formal attire outside, each wearing a badge representing their respective countries.
"Should we let them in?" Ling Ziqian raised an eyebrow, remaining silent but conveying a clear message.
Ji Yuan thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "We might as well meet them."
The reason several elders suggested he lead the team to America was that they hoped he could engage with top experts and scholars, broaden his horizons, and avoid being closed off from the world.
Ji Yuan's talent had already been recognized by several research elders, but he was still quite young and inexperienced. If he couldn't establish a solid foundation, he might face bottlenecks later on when reaching a certain height, potentially leading to a low point in his life.
As the door opened, an exaggerated voice immediately rang out from the crowd, reaching out to shake his hand.
"Hi, my dear genius Ji! It's been such a long time."
The blond man examined Ji Yuan for a moment, then patted his shoulder and remarked, "In the blink of an eye, you've become someone I can only look up to!"
"Jason, please don't tease me," Ji Yuan replied with a faint smile.
The blonde man in front of me is named Jason, the head of the American University Research Alliance. A few years ago, when the relationship between America and an Eastern country was close, he met Ji Yuan during a research project exchange at Aomori University. Admiring his talent, Jason personally invited him to pursue a Ph.D. at Ivy League schools.
Unfortunately, as the relationship between the two countries soured, Jason was reassigned back to America, and their research collaboration came to an end. Despite returning to America, he still thought about Ji Yuan's remarkable talent and made every effort to persuade several board members at Ivy League schools to agree to send an invitation for Ji Yuan to pursue his Ph.D. there.
However, although Ji Yuan greatly appreciated this warm-hearted, kind, and humorous professor, he firmly declined his offer. Jason's intentions may be pure, but others may not see it that way. Given the timing of the deterioration in relations between America and the East, studying abroad for a Ph.D. could easily lead others to draw unnecessary conclusions.
"Oh, you are still that humble young man!" Professor Jason is clearly an optimist with a tolerant heart towards his students and does not interfere with their life choices: "Let me introduce you; those behind me are all prominent figures in their fields..."
