Six days later, Marino ushered in the most solemn day of the year in the town. The experimental center located on the shore of Lake Albano was decorated with lights and colorful decorations. The carriage at the door made many people sigh that they had never seen so many important people in their lives.
As the mayor of the town, Mr. Ork stood at the door and nodded and bowed. As the town's Sheriff Jarek, he also led his people to direct the incoming carriages to stop. Such a scene made the town
Others only dared to watch from a distance and did not dare to step forward at all.
After a while, a carriage protected by a group of knights appeared. The carriage was decorated with a red and white cross with a crown that was unusually conspicuous, which made the residents of the town excited.
"Here we go, get ready."
As a police sergeant, Jarek hurriedly ordered his subordinates. In fact, without his instructions, his subordinates had already prepared to receive him in their best manner.
That's right, Carlo is in the carriage. He is in no mood to pay attention to Sheriff Jarek and his subordinates right now. Faced with the situation where almost the entire core of the Italian political circle has arrived, he feels a lot of pressure. No matter how you look at it, this time it's a bit different.
Nor did it meet his low-key expectations.
Having already faced such a situation, he would not be able to back down.
After giving himself confidence, Carlo got off the carriage.
"Welcome Your Majesty."
After Carlo got off the carriage, there was a roar of welcome.
"Thank you for coming to Marino and participating in the opening ceremony of the Electrical Research Center."
After replying to everyone present, Carlo immediately stepped forward and said to Prime Minister Cairoli, who was at the front of the queue. "It makes today's opening ceremony a great honor for the Prime Minister to come despite his busy schedule."
"No matter where, this is all the credit of His Majesty. The previous government did not think carefully and did not think of the role of the R&D center."
This is a step down for the Prime Minister. After all, after the government refused, the royal family spent money to repair one. It is a slap in the face of the government, especially Cairoli himself as the Prime Minister.
But Carlo didn't have this idea. It wasn't that he didn't want to, and he couldn't.
At present, the power lies with the government. He does not want or want to make the relationship with the government too rigid, which is not good for anyone. Some people do things that harm others and benefit themselves, and some people do things that harm others and do not benefit themselves. But there is absolutely no harm to others and self-interest.
Carlo now has some political consciousness, so of course he would not do this.
Moreover, with the Prime Minister's several previous goodwill gestures and his coming in person this time, Carlo is no longer in such a great mood.
After chatting with the Prime Minister for a few words, Carlo immediately said to the bald old man beside him. "Mr. Depretis, I am very happy that you can come in person."
Carlo still has great respect for this old man who has served as prime minister twice. He is an old man in politics and is likely to be his helper in the future, so he cannot be careless.
"His Majesty's move strengthens Italy's research and development capabilities, which is a very good promotion for the kingdom, so I very much approve of your Majesty's move."
Depretis's words raised eyebrows in many people's eyes, because almost everyone present knew that the Prime Minister had deliberately snubbed His Majesty's proposal before, and DePretis's words were meant to slap the Prime Minister in the face.
Therefore, many people showed playful expressions and planned to see how things would develop next.
However, the next situation disappointed them. The Prime Minister smiled and said, "Mr. Depretis is right. His Majesty's move has strengthened Italy's scientific and technological research and development, and the government is very supportive of this. So.
I think the government can bear part of the subsequent research funding."
"This method is very good, so I would like to thank the government for its generous donation."
The conversation between the three people disappointed the other people who were about to eat the melon. The scene did not appear to satisfy their expectations. Instead, it was a peaceful and peaceful situation.
The Prime Minister is not angry at all, and the former Prime Minister has no follow-up. The young king has become a peacemaker instead, and his style of painting seems weird. But no matter how weird his style of painting is, the next thing still needs to be done.
Carlo continued to greet the other arriving people one by one.
"President Leslie, long time no see."
"Your Excellency Jiajiali, how have you been lately?"
"Mr. Gulits..."
After greeting many people, Carlo walked into the research center with the support of the Prime Minister and others. As the director of R&D, Argos now had the opportunity to walk to Carlo. Although he
He is the host.
"Your Majesty, we are ready. Please come with me."
The selection of the person in charge of the R&D center has been delayed for a long time. There are simply no suitable candidates in Italy. Those who study electrical are basically loners. At most, they will lead a few students to do research in order to select suitable candidates.
very difficult.
If there were no good choices at home, we could only look abroad. After some screening, Argos, who is the person in charge of technical management at Siemens, came into view.
This Argos can serve as the technical director of Siemens. At least he is capable. In addition, he is an Italian, which adds a lot of points to him. Although there are no clear regulations, of course it is an Italian to manage the research center.
It was the best choice. So after some contacts, the position of director of the R&D center was secured.
"Gentlemen, today, we invite His Majesty the King to give a speech to our research center."
In front of many guests and future employees at the scene, Argus, as the director, of course kept his story short. After all, the big shots were pressed for time and did not have so much free time to listen to his long speech.
As Argos finished speaking, Carlo walked onto the stage to the applause. He looked at the people watching him and began a speech that would be recorded in history.
"Gentlemen, good morning. I am deeply honored to have you all take time out of your busy schedule to attend this ceremony. This is not only an honor for me but also an honor for Italy. Some people may ask why, so let me tell you, because here is the most beautiful place in Italy.
What is called hope. Yes, it is called hope. Who brings this hope? It is you. It is you scientific researchers who bring hope to Italy. Italy needs you to be rich and strong, so for a better
tomorrow, I hope you will work hard for Italy."
Carlo's words made the audience burst into applause and cheers. No one doesn't like to boast about his words, especially the monarch. At this time, other people watching the ceremony applauded very appropriately.
"Your Majesty, this is a very good speech. It will make everyone more motivated."
After Carlo stepped down, Tesla praised the king in front of him. He was very satisfied with his current life. He didn't have to worry about life at all. He had a research life that he liked and had a king as a friend. It was perfect.
"I overrated Mr. Tesla, but I was just telling the truth."
After Carlo finished speaking, the Prime Minister and the Minister of Education came to the stage to deliver speeches respectively, but compared with Carlo's speeches, they felt a little inferior.
After the two of them finished talking, the Marino Electrical Test Center officially started working.
Carlo and some government officials also returned to Rome, and a friend happened to come to visit.
