399: Number one in the list of the world's most influential people!

Seeing this, the audience in Su Yu's Streamer channel had become completely fired up.

Brain-Computer Interface Technology, bionic mechanical body!

Either of these two technologies absolutely possesses epoch-making capabilities.

No one expected that one day, these two technologies would appear simultaneously from the hands of the same person in less than a minute.

Moreover, they achieved perfect integration upon their very first appearance.

This was no longer a simple case of 1+1 = 2, but a transformation from quantitative change to qualitative change!

Who could have imagined that in just ten days, Su Yu, starting from scratch, completed this unprecedented feat.

If Skema was the most imaginative scientist globally, then Su Yu must be the most creative scientist globally!

There wasn't a single new technology he attempted that failed.

Furthermore, compared to Skema, Su Yu was clearly more approachable and down-to-earth.

One was a high and mighty trillion-dollar entrepreneur, possessing grand ideals and aspirations.

The other was born into poverty and relied solely on himself, rising step by step to become today's top global Streamer.

Inherently, the rise of a grassroots hero like Su Yu was much more appealing.

Sympathizing with the underdog is a common affliction shared by almost everyone.

Therefore, although Skema was usually very low-key and spent most of his time working diligently,

when compared to Su Yu at this moment, his own brilliance was still undeniable.

Furthermore, with the successful conclusion of the Brain-Computer Interface experiment, Su Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He had finally managed to complete the task he promised the country before the final day of voting.

Regardless of the final voting outcome, he felt he had already done his utmost... It was exactly midnight.

The final day countdown for the voting of the World's Most Influential Person officially began.

After Su Yu completed the Brain-Computer Interface experiment in the afternoon, his popularity on the internet and the number of audience votes began to surge at an explosive rate.

Previously, his vote ranking was seventh, trailing behind the crowd.

His vote count was only 400 million.

But with the smooth conclusion of the experiment, in less than an hour, he overtook the vote counts of the top six, closing in directly on Bezos!

Likewise, Bezos's loyal supporters were not to be trifled with.

Seeing their overwhelmingly leading vote count being rapidly approached, Bezos's fans also began to exert effort.

Those viewers who had been watching from the sidelines immediately cast their votes for the person they liked the most.

Bezos's vote count was also rising at the speed of a train.

Six hundred million, seven hundred million, eight hundred million... In just one hour, Bezos's vote count soared by 200 million!

As of now, the top three were Skema, with 1.7 billion votes.

Bezos, with 800 million votes.

Su Yu, with 790 million votes.

The combined votes of the top three were already higher than the total votes received by the remaining seventeen people.

Skema's fans, seeing this situation, were still feeling uncertain.

Don't look at the current lead of nearly 900 million votes over Su Yu. They knew that the main voting force had not yet begun to move.

Winning now did not guarantee winning in the end.

The total number of people in China who had participated in the voting so far was only 200 million.

Everyone was waiting for the ranking list to refresh after midnight, marking the start of a new day.

That would be the real time for them to exert their strength.

Most of the votes Su Yu was receiving now were from audiences in other countries who had been watching his Streamer channel.

They were all subjects successfully captivated by the Brain-Computer Interface Technology.

Hmm, perhaps the word 'brainwashed' is inappropriate.

They were all loyal fans of Su Yu, with most of them having watched since his very first global live broadcast.

"Look quickly! The Streamer's vote count has successfully surpassed Bezos!"

"It's not just surpassing Bezos now, it's a complete crushing, okay?"

"Holy cow, what's going on? In the blink of an eye, how did Su Yu's vote count instantly increase by a billion votes? Isn't this cheating?"

"Hahahahaha, I knew it. What is Bezos? When selecting the World's Most Influential Person, besides Skema, there's only Brother Su."

"This is too fast. Although Skema's vote growth rate has also started to increase significantly, it is clearly far behind Su Yu."

"Two billion versus 1.8 billion! The voting has entered a fierce stage!"

"There are only twelve hours left until the end of voting; it remains to be seen who the winner will be."

On foreign media sites, countless international netizens were posting their opinions in the comments section.

Although it was long expected that the final voting result would be spectacular, Su Yu's aggressive pursuit of votes still made people sweat for Skema.

The gap was constantly narrowing.

The impact of Brain-Computer Interface Technology and the bionic mechanical body on the world was simply too great.

A person who was clearly about to die had, through sheer modern scientific technology, accomplished this miraculous rebirth.

Did this mean that human lifespan would no longer be shortened due to physical limitations in the future?

As long as one had money and access to this technology, they could achieve eternal life!

Let alone the viewers discussing it on international websites, even Skema himself was deeply moved.

Science knows no borders, and unlike Cryogenic Storage which requires long-term research,

now, if Su Yu was willing, he could replicate the technology in batches at any time.

This was simply a fatal temptation for anyone.

Therefore, although most viewers were well aware that they might not be able to enjoy this technology in their lifetime,

that did not prevent it from being one of the most incredible, cutting-edge scientific technologies.

Su Yu deserved to become the World's Most Influential Person!

... As the countdown to the end of voting drew nearer, the vote counts between the two men grew closer and closer.

In the final thirty minutes, Su Yu's vote count had completely caught up, with only a few thousand votes separating him and Skema.

The rankings of the two might change in the blink of an eye.

But it was precisely this critical moment that made everyone hold their breath in anticipation!

Ten minutes left, five minutes left, three minutes left, one minute left!!!

Exactly midnight!

The ten-day global voting for the World's Most Influential Person—this global celebration—finally came to an end.

When the final vote rankings refreshed at the top of the hour, everyone strained their necks, scrambling to look.

Ranked first: Su Yu of China, with 2,373,276,542 votes!

Ranked second: Skema of the USA, with 2,373,273,440 votes!
