After the old man finished speaking, everyone in the room nodded; they all found his words quite sensible.
"Hold on! Director Pete! I think there's a problem with Mike's proposal." Everyone turned abruptly toward the speaker, who was the Westerner who had sat next to Liu Hun earlier. He had agreed with Liu Hun's comments but when the lights came on, found himself alone, so he plagiarized Liu Hun's words, saying, "I think Mike intentionally exaggerated the benefits while ignoring many challenges."
"David, please provide evidence and don't speak out of envy!" Mike was visibly irked by David popping up to throw cold water on his ideas at this moment.
David immediately trotted out the same arguments that Liu Hun had used, and the Westerner next to him, Reid, who had also overheard Liu Hun, quickly reached out to tug at David's sleeve, saying, "Hey! David, you're plagiarizing someone else's views. I heard them too. If there's anything to gain, I want in on it."
