What happens to the future when humanity loses its imagination?
That slogan created a sensation during the summer of 1984.
Back then, computers couldn't support Chinese input and co...
Zhao Ye was delighted to learn that the United States was going to negotiate, as this might be an opportunity for Wujiang Group to re-enter the United States market.
Zhao Ye immediately sent someone to contact the delegation from country M.
The delegation, led by Laurent Stevenson, stayed at a five-star hotel in the capital.
After Zhao Ye's men made contact with the other party, the other party made many demands.
“Mr. Wang Anshi, the US can allow Wujiang Portal to enter the US market, but we have conditions!!!” Laurent Stevenson looked at Wang Anshi with a somewhat arrogant expression and said.
Wang Anshi asked in a calm tone, "I wonder what the requirements are in the US?"
Laurent Stevenson chuckled, "Heh heh, here's our list of requirements, please take a look!"
As he spoke, he handed Wang Anshi a list that contained a long list of demands, including patent licensing, tariffs, and a requirement that Wujiang Group accept a certain secret plan for its HarmonyOS operating system, various software, websites, and so on...
Wang Anshi looked at the list, his face turning pale, barely managing not to utter a curse.
“Mr. Stevenson, your demands are simply too unreasonable, and we are sorry, we cannot agree to them!!!” Wang Anshi refused on the spot without any ambiguity.
"Oh~ Don't you want the US market anymore?" Laurent Stevenson asked arrogantly.
“Mr. Stevenson, although our Wujiang Group is eager to enter the US market, we will never agree to your unreasonable demands!” After saying this, Wang Anshi got up and took his leave.
Currently, Wujiang Group is not in a hurry at all; the pressure is entirely on the US side.
The M country's conglomerates and citizens are eager for Wujiang Group to enter the M country market, thereby improving the M country's internet environment, promoting Wujiang's portal website to enter the M country market, and listing on NASDAQ.
This concerns the vital interests of conglomerates and the people of country M, so the authorities in country M are under great pressure right now.
At this moment, Laurent Stevenson's expression changed when he saw that Wang Anshi had rejected his request without any politeness. He couldn't help but curse inwardly for being ungrateful.
"Country M is the world's largest consumer market. The fact that Country M allowed Wujiang Group to enter its market is already an immense favor. I never expected the people of Wujiang Group to be so ungrateful as to refuse Country M's kindness!!!"
"Damn it, you'll regret this!!!" Laurent Stevenson didn't budge, remaining seated in his chair, coldly watching Wang Anshi and his group leave.
...
Upon returning to the company, Wang Anshi immediately met with Zhao Ye and reported on the progress of the negotiations.
"Chairman Zhao, the demands from Country M are simply unacceptable!"
Wang Anshi was indignant and said, "They actually made a whole bunch of unreasonable demands. How could I possibly agree to that? So, I refused them on the spot without any hesitation!"
As he spoke, Wang Anshi handed Zhao Ye the list of requirements from country M.
"Holy crap, so many!!!" Zhao Ye took the list, glanced at it quickly, and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when he saw how many requirements were listed.
"It's good that President Wang refused! The US has made so many unreasonable demands on us, they're just delusional!" Zhao Ye said indignantly.
In particular, it later required Wujiang Group's HarmonyOS system, various software, and websites to accept a secret project of the United States.
Zhao Ye firmly disagreed.
How can I bow and scrape before the powerful and wealthy, making me unable to be happy?
Why would we become lackeys for the sake of a mere market?
After a pause, Zhao Ye coldly ordered, "There's no need to negotiate with the US negotiating team for now. Let them cool off for a while and make them realize the situation! Also, spread the US negotiating team's demands through rumors so the whole world knows..."
...
...
The following morning, rumors circulated that a secret project in Country M had requested the cooperation of the Wujiang Group, but unfortunately, the Wujiang Group refused.
Thanks to the instigation of the Wujiang Group, the rumors quickly spread around the world, and major media outlets reported on them.
It immediately became a hot topic of discussion among the public.
"Old M actually wants to install some software on the central server of Wujiang Group's HarmonyOS system, software, or website! Holy crap!!! From this, we can infer that Old M may have also tampered with the central servers of companies like Microsoft and Apple, and is monitoring Microsoft and Apple's user data at all times!"
"How terrifying! So it means that whatever we do could be found out by the people of the US. I'm doomed, my secret of watching porn online has finally been exposed!" a netizen named "Porn Viewing Expert" said in a panic.
"Will the US know my online banking password? I'm so nervous and scared! The combined wealth of Zhao Ye and me is enough to shake the entire Asia. Our combined assets are worth hundreds of billions of US dollars! What should I do if the US finds out my online banking password? I need help online, it's urgent!" commented a netizen named "Qian Duoduo".
"..."
As soon as this matter came to light, various countries sent notes to country M, inquiring about its plans.
At the same time, countless users are demanding that the central servers of companies such as Microsoft and Apple be inspected.
Companies like Microsoft and Apple wouldn't dare let anyone inspect them.
Wouldn't it be exposed if they investigated?
Microsoft, Apple, and other companies resolutely refused to allow investigations and vehemently denied any wrongdoing.
Unfortunately, in the stock market, the stock prices of companies such as Microsoft and Apple plummeted!
As the saying goes, "A person with a straight body has nothing to fear from a crooked shadow."
The fact that companies like Microsoft and Apple are adamant about not allowing investigations clearly indicates something is wrong.
