The Fall of a Top Agricultural Expert

[What happened in 2002? That actually caused the national fortune of Huaxia to suffer a heavy blow.]

Everyone: Ah?

They focused their attention, calmed their minds, and paid special attention.

Looking at the description, this matter had no small impact on future generations, to the point that the national fortune was heavily damaged.

[On the evening of March 21, 2002, two vocational school students, because they had no money to go online, murdered a refined-looking middle-aged man on the street.

At that time, this matter had a huge impact. The entire city's police forces blocked major roads, and the State Council even personally issued an urgent document, wanting to arrest the perpetrators and bring them to justice at the fastest speed.

So who was this murdered middle-aged man? And who were the two vocational school students who caused the man's direct death?

The man was named Zhuang Bingchang, born in 1957 in Junan County, Shandong.

In 1985, he obtained a master's degree from Jilin Agricultural University.

In 2000, he further obtained a doctoral degree from China Agricultural University.

He had also studied and undergone advanced training in Germany, ultimately obtaining a post-doctoral degree.

When he returned to the country, he was strongly urged to stay there, but Dr. Zhuang Bingchang resolutely decided to bring the knowledge he had learned back to his country.

The nation wanted to develop, so it required cutting-edge talents in various industries, and Zhuang Bingchang was a top scientist in the field of agronomy, a top-tier elite talent.

In the context of that time, whether a master's or a doctor, they were extremely rare, belonging to the nation's mid-to-high-level scarce talents.

And Zhuang Bingchang was even more so.

At that time, he had profound achievements in the field of wild soybean research, belonging to the group of top doctoral experts in that field, with a large number of researchers under him.

Very early on, he became a researcher at the Jilin Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Later, to retain him, the Jilin Academy of Agricultural Sciences specially built a large laboratory building for him to conduct research.

However, at that time, no one knew what method the Laiyang Agricultural College used, but they actually recruited him to Laiyang Agricultural College to conduct research work.

But what no one expected was that this talent with a brilliant future, who had the hope of becoming a national treasure like Elder Yuan in the future, died at the hands of a few thugs on his very first day in Laiyang.

On the afternoon of March 21, 2002, Dr. Zhuang Bingchang arrived in Laiyang.

Arriving at a new place, the first thing to do was naturally to buy daily necessities and settle down.

So at that time, although it was not early, Dr. Zhuang Bingchang still chose to go to a shop not far away to shop.

But at the same time, in an internet cafe not far away, two vocational school students walked out of the internet cafe aggressively.

They had no money to go online, so they wanted to go out to find some money.

And their way of getting quick cash was also very simple, which was to rob others!

This kind of thing was not their first time doing it, so they were extremely proficient.

They first approached a kindergarten with a knife, robbed a lone passerby, and obtained more than 1,000 yuan, along with a mobile phone.

Having money, they naturally went back to the internet cafe to go online.

And on their way back to the internet cafe, they met Dr. Zhuang Bingchang, who had finished buying things and was preparing to go home.

The two acted on a whim, deciding to pull off another robbery before going online.

They held knives and approached Dr. Zhuang Bingchang.

Originally, in their eyes, with knives in their hands and the robbery target looking weak, he should have handed over the money without much resistance.

But they never expected that this time, the robbery target would actually resist fiercely.

During Dr. Zhuang Bingchang's fierce resistance, he was caught off guard and stabbed in the thigh by the two thugs with a knife.

Seeing the person injured, the two thugs were also a bit panicked, quickly grabbed the money, and ran.

And Dr. Zhuang Bingchang was left on the spot. Unfortunately, the position where he was stabbed by the two thugs was precisely the main artery.

In the end, this top scientist died of excessive blood loss because he was not rescued in time.

Very quickly, Dr. Zhuang Bingchang's body was discovered, and the police were called.

As soon as the police arrived and investigated, they discovered that the deceased was actually Dr. Zhuang Bingchang.

At that time, this matter immediately shocked Laiyang. This was a top talent they had spent a massive price to recruit, yet he died less than a day after arriving.

At that time, all police forces were mobilized, blocking major roads and checkpoints, and screening suspects.

By the time the police found the internet cafe, the two perpetrators in this matter were actually still playing games there. The small knife that caused Dr. Zhuang Bingchang's death was actually placed right beside them, and the two didn't even realize they had killed someone, still playing on the computer as if nothing had happened.]

Comments:
< I remember those two were named 'Li Huangcan' and 'Xu Jingchun'. In the end, 'Li Huangcan' was sentenced to death, and 'Xu Jingchun' was sentenced to life imprisonment. >
< Because of this robbery by two vocational school students, I remember many local universities moved away. A perfectly good second-tier city went downhill because of this incident and has not recovered to this day. >
< The one above remembered incorrectly, right? Laiyang had many universities, and they seemed to have already intended to move away, it just happened to coincide with that time period. >
< But it cannot be denied that the occurrence of this incident indeed created a significant impact on Laiyang at that time, and various aspects declined a lot. >
< Alas, Dr. Zhuang Bingchang was only 45 years old when he was murdered. If given time, he might have been another great academician like Elder Yuan. >
< If Dr. Zhuang Bingchang had not died in that event, up to now, our country would not need to import large quantities of soybeans from abroad every year. >
< Fun fact: Dr. Zhuang Bingchang specialized in the field of soybean breeding and had a deep understanding of soybean cloning technology. His achievements in this area at that time could be said to be half a step ahead of the world. >

"Alas, for such a talent to fall, it is truly a pity!" Liu Che sighed, finding it extremely regrettable.

Although there were many terms he didn't quite understand, he could also comprehend how important this man named Zhuang Bingchang was to future generations.

But such a top talent, who could be considered a national treasure, actually died without any waves at the hands of a few insignificant thugs.

With his years of political struggle experience, he keenly smelled a hint of an unusual conspiracy.

He had seen plenty of this kind of thing in court over the years.

Either outsiders acted, or their own people acted; it was simply these two possibilities.

Dying without any hidden details was actually the least likely to happen.

His face grew solemn: "It seems that the era of future generations is also not too peaceful. It is not as flawless and indestructible as I imagined." Liu Che shook his head, lamenting.

It seemed that no matter what kind of national structure, it was very difficult to be internally indestructible.

The ancestors of other dynasties were also sighing endlessly.

What were soybeans? Soybeans were food.

From those few words, it was not hard for the ancestors to guess that this was a capable person who could increase soybean production.

What did that mean?

It meant that this was a person who could make food multiply, thereby feeding more armies and common people, thus strengthening the national power and making the country prosperous. He was a rare talent.

Yet such a talent died at the hands of a few nameless nobodies. How could it not make people grieve!

They grieved endlessly, and also wanted to ask the people of future generations how the court of future generations protected this talent.
