87: Chapter 87 Western Alliance Blockade
In less than just a few minutes, the announcement Li Yue released at Chen Mo's instruction once again shot up the trending charts.
A certain celebrity mage, who had just paid extra money to buy traffic, was triggered yet again!
He was frantically smashing things in the villa!
"Damn it, damn it! What does that Chen Mo have? It's just releasing an announcement! What's there to discuss!"
"Huahua, calm down. We can just buy more traffic next time. We can't afford to offend Tianxing Technology!"
The agent beside him tried to persuade him.
"Hmph."
The mage snorted coldly, slapped the agent across the face, and stormed upstairs in a fit of rage.
However, no matter how angry the mage was, he couldn't stop the trending topics from soaring!
#ChenMoInvests127BillionUSDInMedicalCare#
#TianxingIsWealthyAndWillful#
#SlappingWesternCapitalInTheFace#
Three new topics quickly surged into the top ten trending searches.
The comment section was instantly flooded, and netizens went wild:
"Holy cow! 12.7 billion US dollars! How much money is that? Nearly 70 to 80 billion RMB!"
"Overwhelmingly dominant! Is this the confidence of a top-tier magnate? Directly using the money earned from the West to smash the West's monopoly!"
"Hahaha! I'm going to die laughing! This is practically riding on the faces of GE, Philips, and Siemens and slapping them repeatedly!"
"So satisfying! Didn't the West try to choke our development? CEO Chen is just using money to smash them to death!"
"People always said domestic products lacked money and technology. Now Tianxing directly throws out 12.7 billion US dollars—who dares to talk nonsense now?"
"Earning money from the financial war, and using it to smash the medical sector in the West. This scope has directly achieved god-tier status! Family members!
"12.7 billion US dollars! Forget making CT or MRI machines; that's enough money to build a medical space station!"
"I hereby declare Chen Mo is the only idol of my life! No one else matters!"
"The Western monopoly giants seeing this statement must be furious enough to smash their computers!"
"This isn't starting a business or conducting R&D; this is directly entering the arena with a nuclear bomb, flipping the table and refusing to play!"
"Chinese enterprises should be like this! Rich, bold, and capable, directly confronting the entire world!"
"A doctor here! Seeing this statement brought me to tears! Finally, someone is willing to invest heavily in high-end medical care!"
"A patient's family member kneels in thanks! As long as Tianxing dares to do it, I will only recognize Tianxing's products for the rest of my life!"
"12.7 billion USD invested in R&D—let's see who dares to say domestic products aren't good enough this time!"
"Using money earned from Wall Street to crush Western medical care—this move feels incredibly exhilarating! 666!"
"I suggest everyone memorize this sentence: 'I just earned 12.7 billion US dollars, I have plenty of money to invest in R&D!'"
"Magnates speak with such authority! No tricks, no empty promises, just throwing money down!
"This is what we call the backbone of the nation! This is what we call a national enterprise!"
A large number of influential finance commentators, medical experts, and tech bloggers rushed to repost and comment:
"12.7 billion US dollars is the highest starting capital in the history of global medical startups, bar none!"
"Tianxing isn't playing by the rules; they are directly using capital power to break through technical barriers!"
"This is not just a corporate action; this is a declaration of war against the entire Western medical hegemony!"
"With the support of these funds, domestic medical equipment development will accelerate by at least ten years!"
Meanwhile, the previously rampant dragon haters, Public Intellectuals, and groups obsessed with foreign things were instantly choked into silence, collectively triggered and incredibly sour:
"So what if it's 12.7 billion US dollars? Medical equipment isn't something you can just smash into existence with money!"
"Heh, having money makes you great? Do they have the technology? Do they have the patents? Stop acting like a big shot!"
"I refuse to believe that money alone can surpass GE. How can you compete with Siemens' century of accumulation?"
"A nouveau riche mentality! They'll eventually lose all their money. Medicine is not finance; it's not speculation!"
"Even if they have the money, what of it? Once the West imposes a blockade, you won't even be able to buy materials!"
"Anyone can brag! If they have the guts, let them produce truly usable equipment three years from now!"
"Too arrogant! They don't take the international giants seriously; they'll be taught a lesson soon enough!"
"Even if they throw a hundred billion, whatever they produce will still be trash. I will only ever use imports!"
"Just wait and see, they'll be taught a lesson by the West very soon!"
Netizens immediately launched a full-scale counterattack, pummeling the dragon haters until they were completely defeated:
"They're triggered! Completely triggered! 12.7 billion US dollars has directly shut all your mouths!"
"When you said they didn't have money, you complained. Now they have money and you say it's useless. How can you be so hard to please?"
"If you've been kneeling for too long, go see an orthopedist; stop being disgusting here!"
"How much money did the West pay you to desperately smear your own country's enterprises?"
"Before, you said they lacked technology. Now that they're spending money on R&D, you're getting jealous?"
"If you're so capable, you go do the R&D! Hiding behind a screen acting like a coward—what kind of thing are you?"
"Even if Tianxing fails, it's still ten thousand times better than useless trash like you who can only criticize!"
"Make you angry, make you angry, make you angry! CEO Chen is rich, and he's going to confront them head-on! So what! If you're not happy, come fight!"
The entire internet was ablaze with arguments, with Tianxing Technology monopolizing the top ten trending spots, causing servers to lag several times.
Chen Mo was currently looking at the online comments.
Just then, Li Yue knocked and walked in!
"CEO Chen, something has happened."
Li Yue entered and said:
"We just received news that the American GE, Dutch Philips, and German Siemens have officially joined forces and issued a comprehensive blockade order against our Tianxing Medical."
Chen Mo didn't even lift his eyes and replied:
"Blockade what?"
Li Yue said:
"All downstream core materials are banned from shipment: high-end medical sensors, superconducting MRI materials, CT detector chips, precision capacitors and resistors, medical-grade optical components... any supply chain controlled by the West is completely forbidden from being sold to us. Anyone who dares to cooperate will be kicked out of the global market along with them."
Li Yue couldn't help but worry:
"CEO Chen, this is troublesome all at once. Our raw material reserves aren't high, and the production lines haven't even been built yet. They are trying to force us to death."
Chen Mo leaned back in his chair, completely unfazed by the Western blockade.
He had long predicted this move from the West. Blockades, choking development, and cutting off supply chains were their most practiced wicked tricks.
"I wondered how long they could hold out! They can't even last this long?"
Chen Mo said calmly:
"If they blockade, let them blockade. Don't worry about them!"
Li Yue looked at Chen Mo's calm demeanor and instantly felt a sense of stability in her heart.
She knew that as long as CEO Chen was here, there was no hurdle they couldn't overcome.
Chen Mo then said:
"You go handle your business first! I already have arrangements!"
"Understood, CEO Chen!"
Li Yue then turned and left the office.
After watching Li Yue leave the office, Chen Mo muttered to himself:
"It seems I can't rest again!"
