However, Denis Harold, who was sitting opposite him, was very arrogant and rude, and barely paid any attention to him, instead doing other things in a nonchalant manner.
This made Tan Bohan even angrier. If he hadn't been so well-mannered, and if this hadn't been a national mission, he would have stormed off in a huff long ago.
Denis Harold glanced at Po-Ham Tam with disdain and said calmly, "China is a socialist country. The Internet contains secret information from our US government and military. This information is not open to socialist countries. Therefore, China wants to join the Internet..."
Denis Harold paused deliberately, then arrogantly uttered two words: "No way!!!"
Tan Bohan angrily retorted, "Harold!!! The internet is incomplete without China's participation; it cannot be considered a true international network at all!!!"
"Heh, whether it counts or not isn't up to you Chinese to decide, but up to us Americans!" Denis Harold said dismissively, revealing a look of disdain.
At this moment, the people around who were watching the spectacle began to laugh at Tan Bohan.
This made Tan Bohan extremely embarrassed.
The saying "a weak nation has no diplomacy" was vividly demonstrated at this moment. Tan Bohan's expression changed repeatedly as he suppressed the urge to punch Denis Harold in the face. He told himself that he had to endure humiliation and hardship. As the ancients said, "one must endure hardship and bide one's time." What was this little grievance that Tan Bohan suffered today?

That day, Tan Bohan reported the situation to the Chinese authorities, stating that the United States did not agree to China's access to the Internet.
The news quickly reached Zhao Ye's ears, as he had been keeping a close eye on the matter.
Unexpectedly, China's request to access the internet was rejected, and its diplomatic staff were even ridiculed.
At this moment, Zhao Ye couldn't help but recall a photo he had seen online in his previous life of a foreign diplomat bowing his head in silence. The helpless and heartbreaking figure evoked sympathy from many netizens.
Zhao Ye pondered for a long time, as time ticked by. Suddenly, he raised his head and said firmly, "Why does China need to join the internet?! In my past life, Chinese netizens had to use VPNs to access the internet. Whether or not they had internet access was completely unimportant to most ordinary people. Wujiang Group can build up China's internet and then connect it to more countries that are friendly with China. Isn't that also a kind of international network? When that happens, let's see if the Americans get anxious. Will they want to negotiate with China about joining the network? Without giving China one or two root servers, there's no point in even talking. At worst, we can just play our own game..."
