426: Zuckerberg's decision
"Isn't this guy a bit too arrogant? He just developed a brand-new method to treat cancer, right? Look at how smug he is."
"If you can do it, why don't you try? You say it so lightly—'just a brand-new cancer treatment method.' Looking globally, how many methods currently exist that can effectively inhibit cancer?"
Inside the conference hall.
A Middle-aged man from the USA with a gloomy gaze wore a complex expression.
As a world-renowned tech entrepreneur, Zuckerberg was well-known for the concepts of "Facebook" and the "Metaverse."
In reality, his fame was only slightly inferior to Skema's.
After all, in the voting for the world's most influential figures, he had followed closely behind to rank fifth. He could be considered a top-tier entrepreneur who achieved his status entirely through personal influence.
At this moment, he was watching the screen intently. Especially when he saw Su Yu, his pupils contracted imperceptibly for a fleeting second.
He and his company's vice president had just been watching Su Yu's global live broadcast together.
When Zuckerberg witnessed the process of cancer being rapidly cured in the Live Broadcast Room, he couldn't help but let out a heartfelt, soft sigh.
What a pity that this technology didn't belong to their USA.
However, Zuckerberg coldly retorted to the vice president's wanton contempt and disparaging remarks about Su Yu.
In his view, any research capable of producing therapeutic effects on cancer was by no means ordinary technology!
No matter how incredible it might seem, as long as it could be logically explained and understood, it possessed a certain degree of credibility.
Compared to others in the company who were arrogant and dismissive, even launching verbal attacks on Su Yu's live broadcast, Zuckerberg was actually more filled with curiosity.
Could a world-class medical problem like cancer really be inhibited using the simplest of methods?
If that were truly the case, perhaps he could try to make contact with the other party first.
One had to know that very few people had made any breakthroughs in this field recently. Striking first to secure a collaboration opportunity was the best move right now.
"Arrange a private jet for me to fly to China immediately. I want to see this Young man in person before he goes live tomorrow."
"It's a pity that I couldn't speak much with him at the last meeting. I don't know if he'll give me the time of day."
Zuckerberg gave an order to his assistant; he suddenly felt some regret that he hadn't managed to build a closer relationship when they first met.
"Tomorrow? President, isn't that a bit too rushed? Even if we take a private jet, it will still take over ten hours."
"Is it really necessary to rush over there with such difficulty?"
"Why don't we communicate with him online first? It wouldn't be too late to fly over after we've made some preparations."
The assistant hesitated before speaking up to dissuade him.
The next moment.
Zuckerberg's dark eyes suddenly twitched, and his pupils instantly transformed from human circles into vertical slits, like a lizard's eyes suddenly exposed to bright light.
However, this fleeting change lasted less than a second before returning to normal.
Even if one were looking him straight in the eye, they might not have noticed the change that occurred in that instant. It would likely only be discovered by capturing it with an ultra-high-definition camera and analyzing it frame by frame.
Furthermore, the assistant's gaze couldn't see Zuckerberg's eyes at all; he could only stare at his back as he turned away.
Therefore, he naturally didn't notice what had just happened.
Zuckerberg turned around and looked coldly at his assistant.
"Did you not understand what I just said? Or do you want to make decisions for me?"
The assistant's hair stood on end from that chilling gaze; he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"No, no."
"I understand, Mr. Zuckerberg. I will arrange the private jet immediately!"
Not daring to look him in the eye again, the assistant immediately bowed his head and replied respectfully.
For a brief moment, he felt as if he had been targeted by a cold, venomous snake, leaving him unable to move.
...
In the hospital.
Su Yu ended the live broadcast.
He was very satisfied with today's broadcast results.
The point of satisfaction wasn't that he had caused the World Health Organization to become suspicious and even prepare to come to the scene to debunk him; rather, it was that he had achieved such results the very first time he performed the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate on a patient.
There was still a significant difference between the system's descriptions and his own hands-on practice.
Especially for a skill type like this, being able to master it overnight and perform it in front of a crowd was already no small feat.
He was confident that the second treatment tomorrow would eliminate all the cancer cells in this patient's body.
If that happened, he would truly have created another new historical miracle.
The world's first recorded cure for late-stage lung cancer and liver cancer!
"Mr. Su, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have lived for another two months."
Not far away, the Middle-aged man who had just walked out of the examination room had a bright, spirited gaze.
From the test results just now, he already knew that his late-stage cancer, which had essentially been a death sentence, had really been saved by those miraculous Thirteen Needles.
It was no exaggeration to say that he had been snatched back from the gates of hell.
At this moment, his heart was filled with admiration for Su Yu.
He hadn't expected such miraculous Acupuncture techniques to exist in this world; it was truly breathtaking.
Su Yu smiled slightly.
This kind of thing was mutually beneficial. There was no need for anyone to thank anyone.
From the moment he revealed his identity, only this Middle-aged man in front of him had chosen to believe in him and was willing to use his own body to try it out; this was a form of fate.
He cured the man's cancer, and the man used his final physical data to provide an answer to the global audience and vindicate him; this was actually a win-win situation.
"So, sir, you don't need to be in a rush to thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank yourself!"
He pushed the door open and stepped out.
The corridor outside the treatment room was packed so tightly that not even a drop of water could pass through.
Everyone who heard the news had come, wanting to see this young scientist with their own eyes.
Of course, most of them were patients who had originally planned to undergo treatment at the hospital.
Over eighty percent of the people visiting the Oncology Department were cancer patients. When everyone saw through the live broadcast that Su Yu had successfully completed the treatment using Acupuncture without any side effects.
For them, this was simply a life-saving opportunity!
If they missed this opportunity, they could really lose their lives!
So, even if they had to fight until they were battered and bruised, they had to squeeze in.
The hospital administration was also seeing such a situation for the first time.
As the patients poured into the Oncology Department corridor, they had immediately activated emergency evacuation protocols.
Su Yu was only one person, while there were countless people in this world suffering from cancer. Therefore, it was certainly unrealistic for him to treat them all alone.
The urgent priority now was to disperse the audience at the scene and let Su Yu have a chance to leave.
