44: Laser cannons are being deployed on ships!

As soon as Eagle Country's joint military exercise announcement was posted online.

Netizens worldwide exploded.

South Korea's military forum instantly boiled over.

"aishibal! This is the happiest news I've heard all year."

"Our sejong the great ship is number one in Asia, this time we'll show Great Xia what we're made of!"

"Just waiting for Great Xia Country to beg for mercy!"

Sakura Country netizens were even more arrogant.

"Yōshī! The South China Sea is Eagle Country's backyard; Great Xia Country is asking for death if they dare to resist!"

"The last Laser Sword was luck; this time, with the Eight-Nation Alliance, what will they use to block us?"

"I suggest directly blockading Great Xia Country's ports!"

Eagle Country Netizens, however, panicked.

"Are we really going to fight Great Xia? They can even shoot down a global hawk!"

"Laser weapons are so powerful, are our warships safe?"

"President Trump, stop messing around, what if we lose?"

Eastern University netizens were so angry they cursed.

"Eight-Nation Alliance? Do they really think it's still 100 years ago?"

"Eagle Country only knows how to gang up; if you're capable, fight one-on-one!"

"Just wait and see! If you dare to invade our Great Xia, you'll be annihilated!"

India netizens were in an uproar.

They all hoped that Great Xia Country would pay the price.

Some took screenshots and forwarded them, others spread the news.

On the international internet, it was as noisy as a wet market... On the other side.

Ping Guo Company Headquarters.

Cook slammed his phone on the table.

The screen shattered into a spiderweb.

"fuck!"

He stared at the sales report, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Sales in the Great Xia Country market had plummeted for 4 consecutive weeks.

Only 300 units were sold in an entire month.

Meanwhile, Huawei, after selling 5 million units in its initial launch,

had sold another 30 million units in the past month.

Its sales in a single month were almost catching up to their previous half-year sales.

Even the sales of other phone manufacturers had hit rock bottom.

Huawei dominated the market.

Fortunately, they had overseas markets to support them.

But that was only temporary.

Huawei was still ramping up production capacity.

Chip production capacity was also increasing.

Once the demand of Great Xia Country's citizens was met,

they would definitely return to the international market.

At that time, it would be the downfall of their Fruit Company.

Just then.

The office door was thrown open.

Shareholders rushed in, their faces looking worse than each other's.

"Cook! Where are the quantum chips you bought?"

"50 billion! It's been over a month, and we haven't seen a shadow of the quantum chips!"

"If we don't get the chips soon, you're out of Ping Guo Company!"

Cook's face was grim, his voice trembling:

"I've been urging Great Xia every day, and they keep replying that production capacity is insufficient and we need to wait!"

"Then go to the White House!" A shareholder slammed the table in frustration. "President Trump isn't he close with you? Make him exert pressure!"

"Alright, I'll try!" Cook grabbed the phone and dialed Trump's number.

The call quickly connected!

"President Trump! I need your help with something."

"It's like this..."

The other end of the line was silent for two seconds, then a cold laugh came through:

"Cook, your Ping Guo is doing great!"

"We're imposing joint chip sanctions, and you, on the other hand, are buying chips from Great Xia Country?"

"And you want me to help you urge Great Xia to deliver? Just wait for our Federal Bureau of Investigation to come knocking!"

Snap!

The call was directly cut off.

"It's over?" Only then did Cook remember.

They had secretly gone to Great Xia Country this time.

They had already violated Eagle Country's ban.

Wasn't this just walking into a trap?

Cook slumped in his chair.

Cold sweat streamed down his neck.

He suddenly understood!

Ping Guo, this time Ping Guo might really be finished.

The other shareholders also heard what happened.

They silently left Cook's office.

At the same time, they were planning to quickly sell off their shares in Fruit Company.

Although it had already been falling for a month.

They would recover as much as they could!

It was better than going bankrupt directly.

Ping Guo Company was just a microcosm.

Many semiconductor companies had seen their business severely shrink due to Great Xia Country's quantum chips.

Large quantities of products piled up in warehouses.

There were simply no buyers.

Everyone was waiting and watching.

Waiting for Great Xia Country's production capacity to increase and for exports to begin.

No one was foolish!

At this time, no one wanted to use chips that were so far behind.

At the same time, many semiconductor companies.

were also hoping that Eagle Country's Eight-Nation Alliance exercise would put pressure on Great Xia Country.

To find a breakthrough in negotiations.

Forcing Great Xia Country to make concessions on chip exports.

Otherwise.

They would truly be finished... Great Xia Country, Military Department.

A meeting was being held.

"Hehe, Eagle Country is going to start joint military exercises again?"

"Do they still think we are the Great Xia of the past?"

"Still trying to threaten us into compromise with this method? Dream on!"

General Zhang spoke first, his tone full of disdain.

The Commander at the head of the table spoke, "Old Zhang, has the Laser Cannon on the ship been completed?"

General Zhang nodded, his voice excited: "Yes, it's completed and ready for testing!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

The conference room erupted.

"It's finished so quickly?"

"That's great!"

"Test it quickly!"

"Once the test is successful, we can use Eagle Country's joint fleet for practice!"

All the generals became excited, their eyes sparkling with anticipation.

They already understood the power of the Laser Cannon.

Especially after the India border incident last time.

Almost all the generals already knew how powerful the Super Energy Laser Weapon was.

It was a terrifying force that could instantly penetrate thick armor, turning enemy advanced fighter jets, tanks, and warships into ashes.

Now, with the Laser Cannon on board!

It undoubtedly enhanced the navy's combat capabilities infinitely.

"Has the testing location been chosen?" The Commander at the head of the table suppressed the excitement of the crowd.

"It has been chosen, right here in our South China Sea!" Zhao Tianyi, Commander of the Southern Guangdong Military Region, responded proudly.

"Old Zhao, you're just showing off! If you hadn't gotten ahead, it would have definitely been prioritized for our East China Sea Fleet." Cao Zhihao, Commander of the Eastern Theater Command, said unconvinced.

"Exactly! Still showing off!"

"We should have our army's vehicle-mounted mobile laser weapons built first."

"At least your army has Laser Swords, our Air Force is the worst off!"

"I heard they are specially developing new aero-engines for you, you'll have new fighter jets soon, why are you still complaining?"

For a moment.

Zhao Tianyi, Commander of the Southern Guangdong Military Region, became the target of everyone's criticism.

Previously, when the news of the Super Energy Laser Cannon came out.

Various military regions immediately scrambled to be equipped with it.

In the end, the Southern Guangdong Military Region got it first.

Originally, other military regions already had some complaints.

Now seeing Zhao Tianyi's smug expression.

How could they hold back?

Only General Zhao and the Commander at the head of the table remained silent.

They were already accustomed to such situations.

A moment later.

The Commander at the head of the table gestured with his hand, signaling them to be quiet.

Then he slowly spoke:

"Alright!"

"Since the Laser Cannon has been successfully mounted on the ships!"

"Then let's proceed with testing quickly."

"If there are no problems, it will be equipped throughout the entire army."

"Arm all our naval warships to the teeth!"

"Strive to complete the modification of most mainstream warships within a month!"

"At that time, we'll give the Eagle Country coalition a big surprise."

"It's time for our Great Xia to show its sword!"
