To put it simply, America cannot reap the benefits of China on its own. It is merely the ringleader who can show the other underlings the opportunity to share in the spoils, and only then can it have a chance of success.

Now his underlings all have their own plans, and capital is going to be invested in the magic system, so nobody wants to play with him anymore.

Achieving leadership in the future realm where magic and technology combine is the most important task for mainstream gamers worldwide.

China has gained a significant head start in the next generation of internet revolution.

I'm certain that brain-computer interface VR will become the next generation of internet platform.

The reason America doesn't contain it is because it knows that it cannot be contained by itself alone.

They must have also communicated with the Europa League, which rejected America's request to ban brain-computer interface VR.

The significance of the new generation of brain-computer interface VR lies not only in the VR itself, but also in the high-tech industrial chain it fosters in China.

Returning to the topic of magic, the technological development in recent years seems to have accelerated compared to the five years from 2016 to 2021.

Technologies such as autonomous driving, unmanned factories, and brain-computer interfaces are experiencing explosive growth.

I've always been skeptical about the real reasons behind the explosive development of these technologies.

After seeing the longevity potion, I'm certain it's also related to Merlin.

The essence of longevity drugs lies in biological breakthroughs, not only in technology but also in concepts.

The biological community will have a clear definition of life extension.

Merlin's technological spillover and magical aids to research and development will accelerate technological advancements.

This has led to the return of industrial chains. Data shows that, due to the initial success of the combination of artificial intelligence and industrial robots, industrial chains in developed countries are gradually returning to their home countries.

Chinese companies are also relocating their manufacturing plants back to China.

Low-end manufacturing is returning to China, and a trend of deglobalization is beginning.

Low-end industrial chains are returning, and so are mid-to-high-end industrial chains. Third World countries are unlikely to have the opportunity to repeat the two decades that China experienced.

Technological advancements won't give them that much time.

In the foreseeable future, Third World countries will become resource providers and countries dependent on tourism and services.

The appearance of magoin meant that small countries didn't even have the chance to sit at the card table during the magical age.

China's lead in the field of brain-computer interface VR is still very weak, and many components are still heavily dependent on developed countries.

Faced with the restructuring and resurgence of global supply chains, China needs to strike a balance between total factor costs, exchange rates, and its debt system.

The above is the full text of an article published by an economic observer after the news of the life-extending drug was released, titled:

"Looking at the past and future of the global supply chain from the perspective of life-extending drugs."

This chapter was very difficult for me to write, and I had to carefully balance the content, making sure it wasn't too superficial or too profound.
