Chapter 250 A Five-Minute Special Report on the Evening News

Immediately after, the title background "A Powerful Nation Through Technology, A Generation of Talents" appeared on the TV screen!

Jiang Jing's eyes widened slightly, and Li Xue covered her small mouth in surprise.

"...In recent years, our country's technological innovation cause has flourished, with a large number of internationally leading scientific achievements and outstanding scientific and technological workers emerging."

"Recently, the smart Prosthetic limb and neural sensing control system, independently developed by our country's young scientist and founder of Xingchen Technology, Comrade Jiang Jing, have achieved a major breakthrough..."

As the host introduced this, high-definition video clips from the press conference were interspersed into the news footage.

The moment Li Jian was ecstatic after putting on the Prosthetic limb, and the footage of him walking and running with fluid ease;

The shocking scenes of the robot performing various high-difficulty movements, and even the iconic moment where Jiang Jing domineeringly retorted to foreign reporters on stage.

It was all broadcast.

"...It is especially worth mentioning that Comrade Jiang Jing, with his heart set on the nation, voluntarily stated that he will provide smart Prosthetic limbs free of charge to all soldiers and police officers disabled in the line of duty, embodying the noble character and sense of responsibility of new-era scientific and technological workers..."

The host used a highly appreciative tone and spent over five full minutes detailing Jiang Jing's achievements and charitable acts.

Every word was filled with affirmation and praise for this young genius.

Finally, the host solemnly announced: "...In view of the significant strategic significance and value of the neural sensing control system, the state, after strict evaluation, has decided to invest billions to purchase the exclusive usage rights for this technology."

"This fully reflects the state's firm determination to respect knowledge, respect talent, and respect innovation."

"We have reason to believe that with outstanding scientific and technological talent like Comrade Jiang Jing, our country will surely reach and maintain a world-leading level in more technological fields."

The news report concluded, and the screen cut back to the studio.

The living room was silent.

Li Xue excitedly wrapped her arms around Jiang Jing's neck: "Brother, you were on cctv news, and it was a special report!"

Although Jiang Jing had anticipated it, seeing CCTV use such a large amount of time to report on it still made a wave of warmth and pride surge in his heart.

This wasn't just about money; it was a form of national recognition and honor.

When it came down to it, Jiang Jing still had some hot-blooded spirit in him.

He smiled slightly and hugged the beauty in his arms tighter: "Yeah, I saw it."

After "cctv news" ended that night, major official websites and social media accounts under CCTV quickly released detailed transcripts and high-definition video clips of the special report.

With this, the discussion surrounding Jiang Jing instantly skyrocketed, reaching an unprecedented level of nationwide intensity.

It wasn't just the young people active on the internet; even many middle-aged and elderly people who didn't usually go online and primarily got their information through television were completely flooded with the name "Jiang Jing" and his deeds.

The grandpas playing chess in the park, the aunties dancing in the square, taxi drivers, vendors at the vegetable market... almost everyone was talking about the same topic:

"Old Zhang, did you watch the news? That young man named Jiang Jing is truly amazing!"

"I saw it, I saw it. Oh my, that robot is exactly like the ones in the movies, and they say it was built by us!"

"The key is that he has a kind heart. Did you hear? He's going to provide those fake legs and arms to the soldiers and police for free!"

"I heard. Sigh, how much money is that going to cost? There are so many disabled people..."

"Yeah, that must be a huge expense... That kid has such a good heart!"

When people learned about the amazing effects and inevitably high production costs of the Prosthetic limb through news reports and word of mouth, and then heard that Jiang Jing was going to donate them free of charge to all military and police personnel disabled in the line of duty...

Countless Long Kingdom citizens, regardless of age or gender, subconsciously felt their eyes heat up and their noses ache.

This was a kind of emotion and pride that originated from the depths of their bloodline.

They might not understand advanced technology, but they understood what righteousness and loyalty meant.

Immediately after, some people associated it with the "30,000 USD sky-high price beauty serum" incident that had caused a heated discussion during the day.

In an instant, everyone understood.

So, the reason Jiang Jing set such an outrageous price for foreigners and was crazily harvesting international chives was to give back to his home country and to have more funds to help those most lovable people.

"I knew it! How could Boss Jiang possibly be that kind of unscrupulous merchant?"

"So he was playing a big game, earning money from foreigners to use on our own heroes. That's so awesome!"

"Support, must support! From now on, whatever Xingchen Technology releases, I'm buying!"

"Right, we have to do our part too!"

Moved and filled with admiration, countless netizens spontaneously flocked to Jiang Jing's personal Weibo and Xingchen Technology's official platforms, frantically leaving messages and shouting:

"Boss Jiang, we support you! From now on, I'm subscribing to the beauty serum for the whole year!"

"Does Xingchen Technology need a janitor? I don't need a salary, just feed me!"

"Nothing else to say, whatever products are left on the official online store, give me a dozen!"

"Jiang Jing, you are our hero!"

What was even more moving was that many active or retired disabled soldiers, police officers, or their family members also saw the news.

While excited and grateful, they left messages in the comment section one after another:

"Hello Comrade Jiang Jing, I am a veteran who lost his right hand due to bomb disposal. Thank you for your kind intentions, but my family's financial situation is decent. This money shouldn't come from the state, and it certainly shouldn't be borne by you personally. Once the product is released, I am willing to pay for it myself."

"I am a member of the XX Fire Brigade. Although I was seriously injured and had to have an amputation during a rescue, the brigade has already initiated a donation drive, and combined with my pension, it is enough to cover the costs. Please give the free spots to those who need them more. Thank you."

"My son is a border defense armed police officer who was injured and disabled, but we are proud of him, and we also thank you for remembering them. We have the money, so please prioritize those with financial difficulties first."

Each and every heartfelt message contained no demands, only humility and consideration.

This was the conviction and sense of responsibility of the Long Kingdom's military and police—they never felt that their sacrifice was a reason to demand anything in return, always thinking of giving opportunities to the comrades who needed them more.

Jiang Jing scrolled through his phone, looking at the support flooding in like a tide and those admirable messages, and his heart was filled with deep emotion, warmth surging within him.

"The rose is in the hand, the fragrance is in the heart... The ancients truly did not deceive me." He whispered to himself, a sincere smile appearing on his face.

This feeling of being understood and supported by the people of the whole country made him feel more satisfied and proud than earning billions.
