28: We won't agree to any of your American conditions! You can leave now!

At this time.

Dean Chen was at home leisurely sipping some wine.

He was waiting for his wife to prepare some delicious food.

His mood had been excellent lately.

The Project Divine Light was starting up, and as the Dean of the Dragon Science Academy.

Although he wasn't directly involved due to his administrative duties.

Dean Chen was well aware of its progress.

Whenever he thought about it, Dean Chen felt extremely happy.

If he could see the emergence of Dragon Country's Controllable Nuclear Fusion before he retired.

That would simply be wonderful!

Just then, a news report on the television suddenly caught Dean Chen's attention.

The program was broadcasting the latest news.

“Currently, the USA's chip sanction bill has taken effect.”

“This will cause immeasurable consequences for our country's chip industry.”

“Regarding the import of Lithography Machines, our Dragon Country mainly relies on the Netherlands.”

“The current level of chip production we are capable of.”

“Remains at 14 nanometers.”

“The chip sanction bill prohibits Lithography Machines of 14 nanometers and below from entering Dragon Country.”

“Dammit!” Dean Chen cursed directly.

His specialty was chemistry.

He wasn't from the high-tech chip industry.

He didn't know much about this field.

However, seeing this news still made him extremely furious.

These major powers just couldn't stand to see others doing well.

As soon as they see you rising, they immediately start a blockade.

Just then, the phone suddenly rang.

Dean Chen saw it was his assistant.

He picked up the phone.

“Hello!”

“What?”

“Untie your tongue and speak clearly to me.”

“What Lithography Machine? What 5 nanometers?”

“I know the news, I watched it!”

“So what else can be done now...”

“What?” Dean Chen was stunned.

“You mean Lu Feng?”

“The Lu Feng who was just appointed as the chief engineer.”

Dean Chen's eyes widened to an incredible degree.

“That 18-year-old Lu Feng?”

After receiving a positive answer from the other end of the phone.

The phone in Dean Chen's hand slipped silently to the floor.

His wife ran out from the kitchen.

“Old Chen, what kind of madness are you having now?”

“It's rare for you to come home for a meal, why are you just staring blankly?”

“Incredible!”

“This is incredible!”

Dean Chen suddenly jumped up in excitement.

“Our Dragon Country is saved!!”

“Our Dragon Country is saved!”

After saying that, he gave his wife a big kiss on the cheek.

“What are you doing!” His wife laughed and slapped Dean Chen's arm.

“We're an old couple already! Still doing this stuff.”

Dean Chen, however, seemed as if he hadn't heard a word.

He picked up the phone from the ground himself.

His voice trembling, he said:

“Quick! Quick!”

“I have to report this news to the higher-ups!”

...Qin Guozhu was in a massive conference room.

He was performing a simulation on the sand table in front of him.

“Look, this is our country's border position.”

“Currently, India, under the instructions of the USA.”

“Has been constantly harassing these routes of our country.”

“Therefore, next, these few places are the positions we need to defend to the death.”

He had just gotten halfway through.

With a bang.

The door was pushed open.

A person rushed in.

“General Qin!”

The man was panting, clearly having run in a hurry.

“What is it?”

Qin Guozhu's expression was somewhat displeased.

He didn't like it when his subordinates were so flustered when encountering something.

If that was the case, how could they truly engage and fight the enemy at the front.

The man clearly noticed this.

He took two deep breaths.

Only then did he say:

“It's about the situation over at the Project Divine Light.”

“Divine Light!” Qin Guozhu looked around.

These were all his most capable generals around him.

And they also knew about the Project Divine Light.

So he nodded.

“Speak!”

“Yes!”

“The chief engineer of the Project Divine Light, Lu Feng!”

“Just moments ago, he researched the latest Lithography Machine.”

“He said he wants to assemble a team to do his utmost to create our very own Lithography Machine!”

“To rush out our Dragon Country's own chips!”

“What on earth?” Qin Guozhu didn't react for a moment.

A lieutenant general standing to the side asked:

“Is it a Lithography Machine that can manufacture chips!”

“Yes!” the messenger replied.

“The Lithography Machine researched by Chief Engineer Lu can do 5 nanometers!”

The lieutenant general immediately drew in a sharp breath.

Qin Guozhu, on the other hand, looked somewhat bewildered.

“What's the situation? You, explain it to me.”

The lieutenant general's eyes widened directly, radiating an expression of incomparable excitement.

“General!”

“Chief Engineer Lu is truly sent from heaven to save our Dragon Country.”

“Go quickly and report this matter to the Cabinet!”

“Wait!”

“You first have to explain to me what kind of thing this Lithography Machine is?”

“If I go to report it, I'll be completely in the dark!”

The lieutenant general thought for a moment, organizing his words.

Only then did he say excitedly:

“It means as long as this thing is built, the USA's previous sanctions against us.”

“Will become completely useless.”

“Because we will be able to build them ourselves!”

“Holy crap! Why didn't you say so earlier! This kid Lu Feng is something else!”

Qin Guozhu said with a smile.

At this moment, he still didn't understand what a Lithography Machine capable of producing 5 nanometers meant for the current Dragon Country!

The lieutenant general added:

“This matter is extremely significant!”

“General, we must quickly report to Elder Sun!”

“Alright!” Qin Guozhu nodded... Meanwhile, at the Cabinet.

Elder Sun was meeting with the USA diplomat stationed in Dragon Country.

“Mr. Smith, the cooperation between our two countries has been going on for a long time.”

“My opinion is already very clear!”

“Please convey my thoughts to President Biden!”

“This approach is not advisable. If you blindly impose sanctions.”

“It might damage the interests of both our countries!”

“Furthermore, it also affects the USA's position in the international community!”

Smith laughed:

“My respected Elder Sun!”

“The bill passed by our Congress and then the decree signed by the President has already taken effect.”

“It's not much use for you to seek me, a diplomat.”

“You must know, my functions as a diplomat are also limited.”

Elder Sun really didn't want to waste words with the other party.

“Mr. Smith, let's not beat around the bush.”

“I'll just be blunt.”

“What exactly will it take for your USA's sanction bill to stop?”

Smith shrugged.

“As I said before, my dear Elder Sun.”

“I am just a small diplomat.”

“I cannot make decisions on behalf of our great USA President Biden.”

“However, if you were to reduce the overall cost of all the supplies you export to our USA.”

“By another 10%.”

“I could indeed convey your meaning to President Biden.”

“As for what decision President Biden will make.”

“That does not depend on me!”

Elder Sun's eyes narrowed slightly; your fox tail has been exposed so quickly.

So you want to suppress our Dragon Country's overall national income.

And have us continue to serve as cheap labor for you?

Just then, a person walked in silently from outside.

He leaned over gently and whispered something into Elder Sun's ear.

Elder Sun gestured to Smith.

“Mr. Smith, please wait a moment, I have to handle a small matter.”

“I'll come back and give you an answer immediately!”

“Alright!” Smith nodded.

He was now confident of victory.

As long as he could get Dragon Country to relent, it would be a major achievement when he returned as a diplomat.

He would certainly be promoted as well.

This time he was really going to gain a lot of face in front of President Biden!

Thinking of this, Smith felt delighted in his heart.

Before long, Elder Sun walked over with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

“Mr. Smith, sorry for the wait.”

“I won't agree to a single one of your conditions!”

“You may leave.”

“Mm!” Smith said with a smile.

“Verbal agreements don't count, we can sign a trea...”

He then immediately realized that Elder Sun had said he wouldn't agree to a single one.

“What??” Smith was dumbfounded, frozen on the spot.

His whole body stiff, he repeated Elder Sun's sentence.

“Not!!”

“A single!!”

“One!!???”

“Correct!” Elder Sun's answer was short, powerful, and confident!

“You can go back now!!”
