A few days later.

An announcement issued by the United States Ministry of Commerce caused a stir in the public opinion of Xia Country.

This is a ban order.

The target of the ban was a company in Xia Country.

A new company that has been established for just over a year but is gaining fame and popularity.

Dark technology.

It was the Dark Technology Company that became the target of the United States' ban.

Moreover, the ban is so harsh that it is unimaginable, and every piece of content sends chills down one's spine.

"It is forbidden to apply any American technology to the research and development of dark technology, including database software, image processing software, computer operating systems, document software... The use of dark technology is strictly prohibited."

"Any company worldwide that collaborates with or does business with dark technology will automatically be placed on a blacklist and will be barred from any technical support services from the United States... We will not tolerate any company or individual that gets close to dark technology."

"Due to Dark Tech's unauthorized development of artificial intelligence technology, which poses a significant threat and hidden danger to human survival and development, the fate of humanity has slipped into a dangerous and uncertain situation. Dark Tech's CEO, Li Wei, who unauthorizedly released this technology, is a criminal with immense destructive power. We have issued an arrest warrant and hope that Xia Guo will hand this criminal over to the court for trial and investigation, and freeze all of his overseas bank accounts!"

We are also offering a reward of 5 million Star Knives. We hope that volunteers who care about the fate of humanity will take spontaneous action to bring this person to justice. We will reward and commend them and thank them for their contribution to human peace."

In addition to the "Ban Order" against dark technology companies.

There was even an arrest warrant for Levi personally, which was to capture the American, put him on trial, and convict him.

Everyone in Xia Country's public opinion was shocked.

"This is the ultimate in tyranny I can imagine. It's also shameless and arrogant to the extreme! It's pushed their boundaries!"

"Do they think they are God, able to do whatever they want and be omnipotent?"

"This shouldn't be a 'ban'; it's an all-out cunning move. They're mobilizing the power of a massive organization to target a tiny company. If it were any other country, they'd probably kneel down on the spot, but they're facing the Xia Nation!"

"Haha, everyone can talk big, but if you have the guts, come and fight with real weapons. If you're scared, you're your grandson!"

"A backbone company like Dark Technology must be well protected and no one can touch it."

"The more the enemy opposes us, the more we must support them. They don't have AI technology themselves, but they say it's a threat and should be banned. But we insist on using it! In five or ten years, we'll be ten steps ahead of them!"

"The country must protect dark technology. This is a national treasure and cannot be lost!"

Netizens are united, and except for a very small amount of noise, the vast majority stand on the side of dark technology.

…

Dynasty No. 1.

In the living room on the first floor of the villa, several people were sitting on the sofa, drinking tea and chatting.

"Brother Levi, I think you're a little impulsive. If you want to refuse, just refuse, but don't refuse them so harshly. Now even you're being targeted. What are you going to do in the future?"

Ji Yumo said anxiously that as the saying goes, harmony brings wealth. Even if cooperation cannot be reached, the relationship has been torn apart, so there should be some room for maneuver.

But brother Levi...ah.

She thought about the unscrupulous way the Stars and Stripes acted. She and her brother Levi could not go abroad from now on. They could only stay in the territory of Xia Country, otherwise they would fall into the "Stars and Stripes trap" if they were not careful.

Besides, the so-called wise leader, self-reliance, and human fists, now even she, a post-00s, disdains them. The United States has long torn off these fig leaves, revealing its true nature as a gangster and robber.

If you offend such an opponent, you will never be able to live a peaceful life in the future and will have to live in fear.

Alas, she felt that when doing things, one should not act rashly. Brother Levi was really too impulsive.

Su Qingxiao and Shu Yuhui, the two girls sitting next to them, nodded slightly, agreeing with Ji Yumo's words. However, looking at the indifferent look on Levi's face, it was probably as good as not saying anything.

"A bunch of ignorant natives dare to threaten His Majesty the Emperor. How audacious! They have no regard for their own lives!"

Butler Bao Wen was furious and said sternly, "They don't even know who they've offended. They don't even know how to spell the word 'death'!"

"A bunch of ants, flies, and trash, you think you have the guts to yell at Your Majesty? Who do they think they are? In the Dark Empire, natives like this would be completely wiped out. Without a second to regret, they would be annihilated in the beam of the annihilation cannon."

The three girls: “???”

"Forget it, Bowen. There's no point in saying these harsh words now."

Levi shook his head and said, "Arrogance is a disease of civilization. Arrogance without strength will only bring disaster and destruction."

"I certainly didn't handle this matter properly. I responded to their arrogance with arrogance before I had sufficient strength, which caused a backlash from them."

"This has caused us to lose a lot of flexibility and we are unable to gain more benefits from the larger international market. In the future, we can only focus on the Xiaguo market."

"But... there's nothing to regret. They came here with ulterior motives, hoping to steal our AI technology at a minimal cost. This is clearly a miscalculation, and we must flatly reject it... Unless we make concessions, conflict is inevitable."

"So there's nothing to regret! I'd rather earn less money than for them to take advantage of me. I'll get every penny I deserve."

"Let's do a good job of developing the Xiaguo market. Although the market size is not very large, it's basically enough."

Listen to what he said.

All right.

Everyone nodded.

In addition, Levi also noticed that on the Xiaguo network, many netizens were spontaneously supporting him and cheering him on, especially under the official Weibo account of Dark Technology, which was full of voices of "Come on" and "Support".

The number of mobile phone users who downloaded "Tian'ai Tongxue" and activated it has increased by 30% in the past two days.

This gave Levi a strange feeling in his heart, and he recalled the scene in the Dark Empire where the people cheered for him.

Seeing these netizens who are united in purpose.

After thinking about it, he felt that he needed to make some response.

So, he asked Shu Yuhui to help him register a Weibo account with the ID "Emperor of the Dark Empire". Using the verified identity of "Founder of Dark Technology", he published his first Weibo post:

"Weaklings, within a year at most, send someone to me, kneel before me and beg me. It doesn't matter who you send. I will show mercy and sell the technology to you."
