what to do
Shi Donghai slumped in the chair, his face ashen, and kept saying, "Impossible, impossible..."
His world view and values were completely shattered by Zhong Ling's few words.
Zhong Ling finally said to the camera:
"If you want to live, then make amends for the sins you've committed. Use the rest of your life to seek forgiveness from those you've hurt. Perhaps that way, your soul will be a little cleaner."
After saying that, Zhong Ling disconnected the microphone.
The image of Shi Donghai disappeared, and only Zhong Ling's face remained on the screen.
"Today's live broadcast ends here."
As soon as the words were spoken, the live broadcast ended and the screen fell into darkness.
Zhong Ling’s several live broadcasts were seen and remembered by senior foreign officials.
In a secret meeting room in Country M, leaders from several countries gathered together for a meeting.
"Everyone, the situation has gotten out of control. Zhong Ling dispatched us with just one elixir." A senior official from Country M said grimly, "We can no longer let Da Xia reap all the benefits of Zhong Ling."
"Her live broadcast and wishing signs completely exclude us. This is unfair!" The Japanese island representative said excitedly.
"This is serious discrimination. We should protest to the Great Xia Kingdom!"
After the righteous speech, everyone present echoed it. They were envious and jealous, watching Daxia progress and become better and better, while they couldn't even get a ticket.
Qian Wende's ten-year lifespan, Li Wei's rebirth, the transformation of Gulangsha District into an oasis... the feeling of powerlessness of being able to see but not get what they want almost drives them crazy.
"We must take action," the Y Country representative calmly stated. "We must put pressure on Daxia to open up Zhong Ling's live broadcast rights and allow global citizens to participate. This is in line with the spirit of humanitarianism and the common interests of globalization."
"Pressure? With what?" the representative from Country D asked. "We returned the artifacts, but what's the result? We still have to spend a large sum of money to buy two pills. In the face of absolute power, are our conventional methods still effective?"
The conference room fell into a brief silence.
At this time, the representative of Country M slowly spoke: "If conventional means don't work, then use unconventional ones.
Although Daxia is developing rapidly, they still have to rely on us in some key areas."
He looked around at everyone and said word by word, "We can unite and tell Daxia that if Zhong Ling doesn't open up to the world, they will no longer be part of the global high-tech cooperation system. I want to see whether their Zhong Shen is more powerful or our technology is more advanced."
This proposal cheered everyone up.
Yes, this is the weapon they are most familiar with. Even if the enemy is powerful, they can't just fabricate an entire industrial system out of thin air, right?
"I agree."
"Second."
"Agreed, this is our last chance."
Soon, a joint statement against the Great Xia Kingdom was quickly formed, and a technological encirclement was approaching the Great Xia Kingdom.
Zhou Zhenguo's Office
The ashtray was already overflowing with cigarette butts, and Zhou Zhenguo sat at the table, his brow furrowed. On the table lay an urgent report submitted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"Bastards! A bunch of robbers!" Zhou Zhenguo slapped the table, making a dull sound.
Qiao Jianmin sat nearby, his face equally livid. He said in a deep voice, "They've finally revealed their true intentions. They're trying to force Comrade Zhong Ling to back down by threatening us."
"What do they think of Comrade Zhong Ling? A turtle in a wishing well? Anyone can make a wish by throwing a coin in it?"
Zhou Zhenguo was so angry that he laughed, "They have a lot of fanciful ideas. Let them dream big!"
"Minister, don't get angry." Qiao Jianmin was relatively calm. "They came prepared this time, and the key areas they pointed out are indeed our shortcomings that will be difficult to overcome in the short term.
If they really unite, it will have a significant impact on us."
Zhou Zhenguo stood up and paced back and forth in the office, finally stopping at the window and looking at the pine tree in the yard. He was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke, "There was definitely an impact, but if they think this is enough to make us surrender, they underestimate us."
He turned around and looked at Qiao Jianmin: "What's more, they don't even understand what they are facing."
Qiao Jianmin nodded, understanding Zhou Zhenguo's meaning. "This matter must be reported to Comrade Zhong Ling immediately."
"I'm not asking her to take action, but I want to let her know that those flies outside are targeting her again."
Zhou Zhenguo nodded: "Go ahead and fight. Just explain the situation clearly. No matter what Comrade Zhong Ling chooses, we will support him unconditionally."
Qiao Jianmin picked up the phone on the table and the call was quickly connected.
"Hello, Comrade Zhong Ling, I'm Qiao Jianmin. I'm sorry to bother you so late."
Zhong Ling's voice came from the other end of the phone, and there seemed to be the sound of running water.
"Well, go ahead."
"It's like this. We have just received a joint statement from twelve countries including Country M and Country Y..." Qiao Jianmin briefly recounted the other party's actions and intentions, and highlighted several key areas that were "stuck".
After he finished speaking, there was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment.
Qiao Jianmin and Zhou Zhenguo didn't know how Zhong Ling would react, or whether she would find it troublesome.
Just when they thought Zhong Ling was about to hang up, the voice rang again.
"A photolithography machine? Is that the thing used to carve circuits onto wafers?"
"...Yes, yes." Qiao Jianmin was stunned for a moment and quickly answered.
"Oh." Zhong Ling responded, as if recalling something, "What level are you using now?"
Qiao Jianmin didn't know why Zhong Ling asked this. He swallowed, feeling his throat dry. "We...we are still at the nanometer level, and the most advanced technology and equipment are all abroad..."
"Oh, that's indeed quite backward." The voice on the other end of the phone was calm.
"Okay, I got it."
"So...what do you mean?" Qiao Jianmin asked cautiously.
"What do you mean? I also want to ask them what they mean.
It's quite amusing to see a group of ants showing off their might in front of an elephant. Zhong Ling's voice was tinged with a smile. "Ignore them. As for those techniques you're talking about..."
She paused before continuing, "When I have some free time, I'll compile a complete set of technical information for you. Just build it yourselves and don't worry about them."
“…”
On the other end of the phone, Qiao Jianmin was holding the microphone, his whole body frozen. He thought he had misheard, and tried hard to remember what Zhong Ling said and tell it to Zhou Zhenguo.
After hearing this, Zhou Zhenguo's expression changed from shock to ecstasy.
A complete set of technical information? !
Build it yourself?!
It has troubled generations of scientists in Daxia and is regarded as the ultimate blockade weapon by foreign countries. Why does it sound so simple in her words?
It feels like the God of Creation said, "Let there be light," and then there was light in the world.
