17: Chapter 17 The Tumultuous Events in Longman City! A Shocking Turn of Events at the Summit, Technology Dominates the Entire Venue (2)

Professor Schmidt's words were like a bombshell, causing the venue to erupt in an uproar once again. The representatives who had previously questioned Engineer Mu wore embarrassed expressions, and the media reporters' lenses immediately turned to John, eager to capture his reaction.

John's face turned pale instantly, his hands clenching into fists so tight his knuckles turned white. He never expected that Engineer Mu would be able to produce such irrefutable evidence, and even have it certified on the spot by an international authority, which completely disrupted his plans. But he was not resigned; he immediately shouted, "This report is forged! It must be forged! A report alone isn't enough; who knows if you colluded together? You must demonstrate the technology on-site to prove that your technology is truly feasible, and not just some laboratory gimmick!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several executives from X Energy chimed in, attempting to incite the crowd's emotions once again.

"No problem." Engineer Mu had long anticipated this move from him, and a confident smile curled at the corners of his mouth. "Not only will I demonstrate the Wireless Power Transmission Technology on-site, but I will also additionally demonstrate an advanced technology—three-kilometer long-distance ultra-high-voltage wireless power transmission, so everyone can see for themselves just how powerful my technology is and whether it can truly be implemented!"

This promise excited everyone at the venue. Three-kilometer long-distance ultra-high-voltage wireless power transmission was at a leading level globally, with many international giants still stuck at the laboratory stage. Everyone sat up straight, their eyes filled with anticipation, and the media reporters quickly adjusted their equipment, preparing to record this historic moment.

Engineer Mu signaled for the technical team members to move the portable transmitter equipment to the plaza outside the venue, while having the staff place a high-power industrial motor and several household appliances as receivers in the display area inside the venue. There was a distance of three kilometers between the transmitter and the receiver, with several buildings in between, fully complying with actual application scenarios.

"Please take a look, everyone. Currently, both the transmitter and the receiver are powered off." Engineer Mu pointed to the real-time image on the big screen. "Next, I will start the transmitter equipment to provide power to the receiver three kilometers away through Wireless Power Transmission Technology. You can observe the voltage, current, conversion efficiency, and other data on the screen in real-time."

He pressed the control button in his hand, and the transmitter equipment outside the venue emitted a faint buzzing sound, with the indicator light turning a steady green. A few seconds later, the industrial motor inside the venue suddenly started and ran smoothly; the air conditioner, television, and lights nearby also turned on simultaneously, with stable brightness and not a single flicker. The data on the big screen showed: voltage stabilized at 380V (industrial electricity standard) and 220V (civilian electricity standard), current fluctuation less than 0.1%, and energy conversion efficiency as high as 98.5%, completely reaching or even exceeding the level of wired power transmission.

"Success! It really succeeded!" The venue erupted with thunderous applause and cheers. The representatives stood up one after another, their faces full of shock and excitement. "It's too magical! A distance of three kilometers, and it can still provide stable power with such high efficiency!" "If this technology is introduced to our country, the power supply problem in remote mountainous areas will be completely solved!" "Engineer Mu is too amazing! This is the real core technology!"

Media reporters frantically pressed their shutters, recording this shocking scene, and the atmosphere at the venue reached a climax. John stood in place, his face ashen, his eyes filled with despair and unwillingness—the conspiracy he had carefully planned was once again completely shattered by Engineer Mu's absolute technical strength.

Just then, Engineer Mu's danger warning device suddenly emitted rapid vibrations, and the red indicator light flashed wildly! His Energy Perception Ability instantly captured several intense weapon energy fluctuations approaching rapidly outside the venue. At the same time, two people inside the venue disguised as reporters quietly pulled out weapons, aiming directly at the podium!

"Danger!" Engineer Mu shouted loudly, while pressing the activation button for the energy Defense Barrier in his hand. "Security team, take your positions!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two disguised reporters in the venue suddenly raised their guns and fired at the podium, bullets whistling through the air. But just as the bullets were about to hit Engineer Mu, an invisible energy shield suddenly expanded, completely covering the area within a ten-meter radius around the podium. The bullets hit the energy shield, making a "clang-clang" sound, and were instantly deflected without causing any harm.

Meanwhile, the China Security Bureau special security personnel lurking in the venue acted quickly, rushing toward the two gunmen like tigers pouncing on prey, subduing them in less than ten seconds. Fierce gunfire also came from outside the venue; clearly, the remaining members of the Black Scorpion Organization had launched a final attack and were being surrounded and wiped out by the security team.

Although the representatives and reporters at the scene were frightened, they calmed down quickly after seeing that Engineer Mu was safe and sound and that the security team had handled the situation decisively. Deputy Minister Amir walked to the microphone with a serious expression: "Everyone, please rest assured. Security personnel are handling the unexpected situation, and it will not affect your safety. The attack just now only proves how important Engineer Mu's technology is, for certain forces to be so unscrupulous! On behalf of the Ministry of Energy of Jilong Country, I clearly state once again that we will firmly introduce Engineer Mu's Wireless Power Transmission Technology and promote energy cooperation and development in the Nanyang region!"

Thunderous applause rang out in the venue again. This time, the applause contained not only recognition of the technology but also admiration for Engineer Mu and support for justice.

Ten minutes later, Old Zhou walked to Engineer Mu's side and reported in a low voice: "Engineer Mu, all attackers have been captured. There are five in total, all core members of the Black Scorpion Organization. Firearms, grenades, and other weapons were seized at the scene. John has been detained; he is suspected of multiple crimes, including financing terrorist organizations, plotting assassinations, and forging evidence. What awaits him will be the sanctions of the law."

Engineer Mu nodded, his eyes calm and firm. In this battle at the Nanyang Summit, he not only won a technical victory but also shattered the conspiracy of the international energy giants, paving the way for the technology to go global.

He picked up the microphone again and said to everyone at the venue: "Technology has no borders, but the development of technology should seek welfare for humanity, rather than becoming a tool for certain forces to seek hegemony and suppress others. I am willing to share the Wireless Power Transmission Technology with all countries in need, especially friends in the Nanyang region, to break the energy monopoly together and build a clean, efficient, and inclusive global energy network!"

His words won the warmest and most lasting applause of the whole event. Sunlight spilled in through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the convention center, illuminating Engineer Mu's tall and straight figure, and also illuminating the global journey of his energy empire. The victory at the Nanyang Summit was just a beginning. In the future, he would take his technology to conquer more markets, rewrite the global energy landscape, and let the light of technology illuminate every corner!

The technical team members immediately moved the portable Wireless Power Transmission Technology equipment to the center of the venue. The equipment was not large, only the size of a suitcase, divided into a transmitter and a receiver. Engineer Mu operated it himself, connecting the transmitter to the venue's temporary power supply, and then had staff move the receiver to the venue exit one hundred meters away.

"Watch closely, everyone." Engineer Mu pressed the start button on the transmitter, and the equipment emitted a faint buzzing sound, with the indicator light turning a steady blue. At the same time, the indicator light on the receiver one hundred meters away also lit up, and a high-power industrial motor connected to the receiver started instantly and began to run at high speed!

The venue instantly quieted down, and everyone looked at this scene in shock. A distance of one hundred meters, without any wires connected, could actually drive a high-power industrial motor to run; this was an unprecedented technological breakthrough in the global energy field!

"This... this is too magical!" An energy official from a Nanyang region country said excitedly, "Our country's remote areas have complex terrain, and the cost of laying wires is extremely high. With this technology, we can easily solve the power supply problem!"

"Not only that, the transmission efficiency of this technology is as high as 99.9%, far exceeding traditional wired power transmission!" Dr. Chen added, "Moreover, the equipment can also adapt to extreme environments such as high temperatures and heavy rain, with extremely high stability!"

[part:gemini-3.0-flash]

John's face turned completely dark. He hadn't expected Mu Li's technology to be so advanced. Unwilling to accept defeat, he immediately signaled his assistant with a look. The assistant quietly pulled out a signal jammer and pressed the switch—this was their backup plan, intended to paralyze Mu Li's equipment through signal interference and create the illusion of a technical failure.

However, to John's despair, the industrial motor at the receiving end continued to run at high speed without the slightest abnormality. A mocking smile curled at the corner of Mu Li's mouth. He pulled an Energy Signal Interference Shield from his pocket and said, "Vice President John, did you think you could destroy my equipment with a signal jammer? This Energy Signal Interference Shield can block all malicious signals within fifty meters. Your little tricks are useless."

The people on the scene instantly understood that John had been up to no good. The looks the crowd directed at John were filled with contempt and anger.

"This is too much! To stop the promotion of Engineer Mu's technology, they'll resort to any means necessary!"

"The previous evidence for the slander was forged, and now they're trying signal interference. The Six International Energy Giants' behavior is truly unsightly!"

John's face turned beet red, but he couldn't say a single word. He knew he had lost completely.

Mu Li ignored John's pathetic state and continued, "Everyone, my Wireless Power Transmission Technology can not only solve power supply problems in remote areas but can also be applied to industrial production, transportation, aerospace, and many other fields. I am willing to cooperate with countries in the Nanyang region under favorable conditions to jointly promote regional energy upgrades and break the dependence on traditional fossil fuels."

As soon as he finished speaking, Deputy Minister Amir of the Ministry of Energy of Jilong Country immediately stood up and said loudly, "Jilong Country is willing to be the first to cooperate with Engineer Mu's team, introducing Wireless Power Transmission Technology and building pilot projects in our country's remote areas! We will provide the most favorable policies and the greatest support!"

Immediately after, energy officials from several Nanyang countries, including Xiangyu, the Republic of Nusa, and Honghe, also expressed their willingness to discuss cooperation with Mu Li. The atmosphere at the scene completely shifted from previous doubt and chaos into enthusiastic cooperation negotiations.

Watching the scene unfold, John trembled with rage yet was helpless. He knew that after today's summit, Mu Li's Wireless Power Transmission Technology would be fully promoted in the Nanyang region, and the monopoly of the Six International Energy Giants in the area would be completely broken.

Just as the summit was about to end, Mu Li's danger warning device suddenly vibrated urgently, its red indicator light flashing wildly. His expression changed, and he shouted loudly, "There's danger! Everyone evacuate to the safe zone immediately!"

The words had barely left his mouth when intense gunfire and explosions erupted outside the venue. A group of masked men in black clothing, armed with weapons, rushed into the hall—they were the remnants of the Black Scorpion Organization! They were John's final trump card, intended to create chaos and assassinate Mu Li at the end of the summit.

"Protect Engineer Mu!" The special security captain immediately ordered. Security personnel quickly formed a defensive formation, shielding Mu Li and the technical team in the center. Simultaneously, China Security Bureau personnel lurking within the venue also went into action, engaging in a fierce firefight with the Black Scorpion members.

Mu Li immediately pressed the activation button on his portable energy defense barrier. An invisible energy shield instantly expanded, protecting everyone within a ten-meter radius. The bullets from the Black Scorpion members hit the energy shield and were instantly deflected, causing no harm.

The attendees at the scene were terrified and fled in all directions. Deputy Minister Amir's face was pale as he shouted to the security personnel beside him, "Quick! Dispatch more law enforcement forces here!"

Although the Black Scorpion members were fierce, they were no match for the well-trained special security personnel. Coupled with the cover provided by Mu Li's energy Defense Barrier, all Black Scorpion members were either subdued or killed within ten minutes.

The venue was a mess, with bullet casings and shattered glass scattered across the floor. Several injured attendees were rushed to the hospital. John watched this scene, knowing he was completely finished. He tried to slip away quietly but was intercepted on the spot by China Security Bureau personnel.

"Mr. John, you are suspected of planning a terrorist attack and assassination. We need you to cooperate with our investigation!" the staff member said sternly, taking out handcuffs and shackling John.

"You can't arrest me! I am the Global Vice President of Huaxingmeng ExEnergy! I have diplomatic immunity!" John shouted as he struggled.

"Planning terrorist attacks and assassinations does not fall within the scope of diplomatic immunity," the staff member said coldly, leading John away. Media reporters on the scene raised their cameras one after another to record this moment.

Having dealt with the Black Scorpion attack, Mu Li walked over to Deputy Minister Amir and said, "Deputy Minister Amir, I'm sorry that such an incident occurred at the summit because of me."

"No, Engineer Mu, this is not your fault," Deputy Minister Amir said hurriedly. "It was our security work that was inadequate, allowing terrorists to take advantage. Thank you for your timely warning; otherwise, there would have been even greater casualties. Regarding our cooperation, Jilong Country's stance is very firm, and we will draft a cooperation agreement as soon as possible."

Energy officials from other Nanyang countries also stated that the cooperation plans would not be affected and that they would arrange for personnel to coordinate with Mu Li's team as soon as possible.

That evening, the news of Mu Li's Wireless Power Transmission Technology shining at the Nanyang Energy Cooperation Summit and the thwarting of the terrorist attack spread across the globe. Domestic media in China ran front-page reports, and netizens were in an uproar of cheers.

"Engineer Mu is amazing! He can crush international giants even abroad and bring glory to the country!"

"Wireless Power Transmission Technology going to the Nanyang region is a milestone for China's new energy technology!"

"That guy John finally got arrested! It's truly satisfying!"

At the same time, the system's voice sounded in Mu Li's mind: [Detected that the host successfully promoted technology at the Nanyang Energy Cooperation Summit and thwarted the assassination plot of international forces. Completed the 'First Battle of Technology Export' plot challenge. Gained 30,000 system points. Current system points: 42,000.]

[Unlocked new function: Multinational Energy Project Management System. Can efficiently manage global wireless power transmission pilot projects and optimize resource allocation.]

[Received reward: Blueprints for the core components of a miniature Controllable Nuclear Fusion device, accelerating the research and development process of Controllable Nuclear Fusion technology.]

Mu Li was overjoyed. 30,000 system points were enough for him to exchange for higher-level technology, and the blueprints for the core components of the miniature Controllable Nuclear Fusion device brought him one step closer to his goal of 'completely changing the global energy landscape.'

The next day, Mu Li and the Ministry of Energy of Jilong Country officially signed a cooperation agreement. Jilong Country would invest 5 billion RMB to build wireless power transmission pilot projects in three remote areas. Subsequently, he signed preliminary letters of intent for cooperation with Xiangyu and the Republic of Nusa respectively.

After staying in Longman City for three days to handle all cooperation coordination matters, Mu Li led his technical team onto a private plane back to China, escorted by the special security team.

The moment the plane took off, Mu Li looked out the window at the city of Longman with a deep gaze. He had won the battle for technology export in the Nanyang region, but he knew this was only the first step of his global layout.

The remnants of the Six International Energy Giants, the military-industrial complex of the Star Alliance Nation, and other forces hidden in the shadows would not let things go easily. The road ahead was still full of challenges.

But Mu Li was fearless. He had the system's help, powerful technical strength, and the support of his country. His energy empire had already taken root in China and was now setting sail in the Nanyang region.

For his next stop, he would advance the research and development of Controllable Nuclear Fusion technology while promoting wireless power transmission on a large scale domestically, allowing China to be the first to enter a clean and efficient new energy era. Then, he would push the technology globally, breaking the monopolies of all forces so that all of humanity could benefit from his technology.

The plane pierced through the clouds, flying toward China. Mu Li leaned back in his seat, closed his eyes, and began to organize his next R&D and promotion plans.

Technology is king, and strength is supreme. Anyone who tries to block his progress will be completely crushed by him! The rewriting of the global energy landscape has only just begun!
