48: Section 48
De Telegraaf: Our Netherlands has always been at the forefront of photolithography machine technology. We have developed a sixth-generation 5-nanometer photolithography machine, second only to Lighthouse Country's 3-nanometer photolithography machine. But based on our experience, with China's current technical capabilities, even a 30-nanometer photolithography machine would take at least five years to achieve!
Sakura Agency: Lighthouse Country is right!

Kimchi Evening News: After many days of research, if a 0.35-nanometer photolithography machine exists, it should also be a product of our Kimchi Country. [Note: If not, pretend I didn't say anything]
President Teter: On behalf of the whole world, I condemn China! They should not deceive their people and the world like this!
Major international media outlets collectively denounced China for fraud.
Online public opinion instantly became one-sided.
"Damn! It's fake? I was excited for so long for nothing!"
"Me too. I even posted on my Moments that China was about to rise. Now, rise my ass."
"I knew it! How could China, which is three generations behind, suddenly surpass the whole world!"
"I'm really speechless. Even if the officials want to fool us common people, they should at least come up with a better excuse!"
"Now look, the whole world is mocking us Chinese!"
"More importantly, our electronics industry is still not saved!"
"The photolithography machine is fake, which means we still can't produce and develop our own chips. What's the point of that!?"
"I'm so speechless. I should have emigrated earlier. I really can't stay in China any longer!"
"Upstairs, if you want to leave, then leave! I am a Chinese person in life and a Chinese ghost in death. I will definitely share weal and woe with China!"
"Exactly, a bunch of fifty-cents, running away at the slightest difficulty. China doesn't welcome you either!"
"Slightest? A huge amount!"
"The officials deceived us first, so what, we're not allowed to speak the truth!?"
"Only local officials are allowed to commit arson, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps? Wake up, the Qing Dynasty is over!"
The internet was also full of ridicule...0
Especially the fifty-cents and haters who had been suppressed by China's special asthma medicine and rare earth processing technology twice before, almost suffocating, as well as the spies lurking in China.
This time, they could finally express their inner excitement.
Some even opened more than 500 accounts and used machine-written scripts to frantically leave comments everywhere online, desperately attacking those who wanted to defend China.
They were directly provoked to the point of being speechless, daring not to speak their anger.
After all, having received the research report jointly produced by Western Countries.
Even if Academician Wang, who was highly respected at the time, personally spoke, he was now being called disrespectful of his elders, flaunting his age, blushing with shame, making his own bed, and being cunning, among other things.
The President of Lighthouse Country even went so far as to propose sanctions against China at the United Nations, demanding that they give the world an explanation.
They wanted China to pay the price for its lies.
They even put forward a series of Unfair terms (overlord clauses), placing all the funds paid by various countries for joint scientists on China's head.
Then they accused China of affecting the progress of the entire world's scientific field due to its recklessness.
In short, they piled all sorts of accusations on China, hoping to use this opportunity to completely suppress China underfoot, making it difficult for China to rise for the next hundred years, forcing it to become their puppet.
However, at this very moment.
The official Chinese government, represented by Academician Wang of the Academy of Sciences, surprisingly stepped forward to directly address the skepticism—
"Tomorrow, the Academy of Sciences will invite scholars and professors from various universities, members of other research institutes, and a portion of reporters, to come and witness our proud lin's lithography machine!"
Whoa—!!!
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire world was shaken.
Witness the physical photolithography machine???
Has it really been produced???
Does anything below one nanometer truly exist?
Otherwise, how would the Chinese government dare to make such a move?
Even if it's a fraud, any real industry expert would see through it at a glance. Isn't this method of deception too crude?
Wait!
Right! They must only be planning to let ordinary people visit, so no one can expose their lies!
Soon, Western media once again deduced China's intentions.
Under the President's directive, media reporters at the diplomatic press conference began to pressure China.
"Is the one-nanometer machine announced by the official government real?"
"How will the visitors be arranged? Will they be chosen randomly?"
"Can only Chinese people visit? And for reporters, can only Chinese media enter?"
"May we personally witness this farce... ah, no, wrong translation, witness the 'miracle,' can we?"
"..."
On the podium, the diplomat calmly scanned the crowd and then spoke faintly:
"Yes, everyone is qualified to visit."
"We welcome foreign media reporters, and we also welcome foreign scholars and professors to come and observe."
"However."
"Since it is an important facility, to avoid damage, we will only display it once, tomorrow at 10 AM."
"As for those from abroad who wish to come, remember to book your flights quickly."

Chapter 59: The World is Boiling!! Top Professors Gather in China! To Reveal the Truth?!
After this statement was released, everyone was once again in an uproar.
Especially Western Countries, led by Lighthouse Country.
The President was dumbfounded.
During this time, he had been dedicated to attacking China.
This time, he spared no effort, even adopting a tough stance to coerce other countries into joining forces to stomp on China.
He originally thought that this time, with the photolithography machine blockaded, China would be forced into a foolish move.
Then, after they seized the weakness and dealt a heavy blow, at least the national strength would be greatly weakened, and it would no longer threaten Lighthouse Country.
As a result.
Facing aggressive public opinion, China no longer played tai chi or avoided the sharp edge as before.
Instead, they chose to confront it head-on!
You want to see it, right?
Alright!
Then we'll let you see it!
Not just Chinese people, but people all over the world can come and see!
You said it was fake, didn't you?
Then send your most professional professors to come and see it together!
This stance made the high-level leaders of Western Countries begin to panic.
"Could it be that China really made a photolithography machine?"
"Really? I don't believe it!"
"So many Experts and professors from our countries combined couldn't understand this field, and China alone can figure it out?"
"But if they don't have it, why would they dare to publicly display it?"
"It must be some kind of conspiracy!"
"Could it be that they're making a fake one to show us?"
"Oh, right! Do you remember? China said they would only display it once tomorrow morning, which means time is very tight for us!"
"China must be trying to use this dirty trick to deter us, so our Experts won't have time to go and see it, and they can get away with it!"
"Soga soga! '950' In that case, we people of Great Sakura Island are very close, so we can definitely make it. Their scheme won't succeed at all!"
"Sheesh, I didn't expect China to be planning such a thing! Don't worry, our Kimchi Country professors will definitely make it in time too!"
"Hmph, they're being pushed into a corner by us step by step. When the time comes tomorrow, China will no longer be able to turn the tables!"
"Faking it, grandstanding, and now being forced to display something that doesn't exist, it shows that China has reached the end of its rope!"
"After tomorrow, China will no longer be a threat!"
...Lighthouse Country, White House meeting.
The President couldn't remember how many meetings he had called today.
But there was no other way; seeing China's big moves again and again, he had to retaliate.
And this time, his heart was half excited and half worried.
"Houston, don't investigate Lin's now. Go and find out if China has really made a photolithography machine!?"
Hearing that he no longer had to investigate Lin's, Houston, the head of the intelligence department, also breathed a sigh of relief.
Compared to such an ethereal existence, investigating China's industrial intelligence was much easier.
After a pause, Houston handed the report in his hand directly to the President and said with a look of disdain, "Don't worry, Mr. President."
