Section 176

He finally put away that hypocritical, smiling tiger expression... and revealed a sinister smile!

That's right...

This! This was his true goal!

He had successfully handed the Dragon Kingdom a multiple-choice question where both answers were wrong!

No matter what they chose...

the Dragon Kingdom would suffer heavy losses!

If they chose to persist in using the black-tech weapons manufactured by Lin Xian—

that would mean winning the competition but losing their credibility and international image!

This was even more fatal for the Dragon Kingdom!

After all, they had spent many years building up such a perfect and excellent international image and prestige!

If... just one championship in a military competition could destroy the image the Dragon Kingdom had spent so many years accumulating...

it would be an incredibly good deal for the United States!

As for the second option.

If the Dragon Kingdom, in order to maintain its credibility and keep its word, did not use the black-tech weapons manufactured by Lin Xian in the military exercise—

then they would lose this military competition that was crucial to the United States!

Although this championship was not very important to the Dragon Kingdom...

but for the United States, which had never lost the championship throne!

This championship was of the utmost importance.

So...

if the Dragon Kingdom really chose this option.

The United States would be even happier!

They would firmly secure their throne as the world's number one military power... and take back everything they had lost tonight... take it all back!

"Hahaha, hahaha..."

The President of the United States couldn't help but chuckle.

He turned his head to look at Director Chu Yun on the other side of the stage... hoping to see expressions of a [defeated dog], [frustration], [despair], and [remorse] on his face!

That would be simply satisfying!

However...

the President of the United States never expected that things would not go according to his script at all!

In fact!

It was the exact opposite—

Director Chu Yun, on the other side of the stage,

in such a difficult dilemma,

had actually picked up his thermos that was "battered out of shape" again!

He was sitting on the sofa!

Legs crossed!

Leisurely sipping tea,

with not a trace of panic or nervousness on his face!

Instead, he was full of satisfaction and comfort after tasting a sip of clear tea!

This...

this scene!

It completely dumbfounded the President of the United States!

What exactly was going on?

Was Director Chu Yun crazy or deaf?

Did he not understand what he had just said?

And!

Wasn't he just standing on the stage, right next to him, a moment ago?

When on earth did he run back to the sofa to drink tea!?

Was now the time to drink tea?

Was that battered, dented thermos really that good!?

Suddenly!

An ominous premonition crept into the heart of the President of the United States...

He immediately felt his scalp tingle and his spine go cold—

[Could it be...]

[That Director Chu Yun had already anticipated the question he was going to throw out...]

[And had already thought of countermeasures!?].

The Director Chu Yun before him was so calm!

This scene... directly caused the President of the United States to panic!

How was this possible!?

He should have been driven into a desperate situation... how could he still be so calm!?

For the Dragon Kingdom netizens in the live broadcast room...

that familiar smile on the face of Director Chu Yun!

It was undoubtedly a shot of adrenaline for them!

They discussed one after another in the barrage:

"It's here! It's here! Director Chu Yun's familiar smile has appeared again! Hahahaha... I don't know why, every time I see this confident and arrogant smile from Director Chu Yun... I feel very secure! It's the kind of feeling where safety is overflowing! Now that I think about it... the nervousness just now was completely unnecessary! Director Chu Yun... he even survived the darkest time of this night... could this last hurdle really stump him?"

"Phew... seeing Director Chu Yun pick up that battered thermos to drink tea again... my heart, which had been hanging, finally dropped, and I am no longer worried. I haven't done anything tonight... I've just been staring at Director Chu Yun's magical thermos! I've even found the pattern! Whenever the thermos falls to the ground... that's when Director Chu Yun is shocked. Whenever he uses the thermos to cover his face for a tactical drink... that's when he is thinking. And like now! This kind of relaxed tea tasting... that's the moment when Director Chu Yun is confident and full of assurance!"

"Hahahaha, yes, yes, I've also discovered this pattern! Director Chu Yun himself probably wouldn't have thought of it... his usually profound shrewdness has actually been completely exposed by a thermos today! But for our Dragon Kingdom... this is undoubtedly a good thing! At least it shows... the President of the United States' question didn't stump Director Chu Yun! He must have thought of a perfect solution... that can both allow us to achieve victory in the '2023 International Military Competition'... and perfectly resolve the matter of Lin Xian manufacturing weapons!"

"But... I'm really curious! How will Director Chu Yun answer the President of the United States' question! After all... in this international setting with the whole world watching, facing the question from the President of the United States... Director Chu Yun definitely has to give an answer! Moreover, even if he doesn't give an answer here now... it will still be a very serious problem when participating in the '2023 International Military Competition' later! If we really don't use the agricultural machinery manufactured by Lin Xian... it will be really hard for us to win!"

"Ahem, ahem, everyone, just rest assured! It's been a whole night... when have Director Chu Yun and Lin Xian ever let everyone down? The two of them, one is a super genius for the country's technological take-off... and the other is the Director of National Defense who guards the country's gates for Lin Xian! The two together... can be said to be an existence like peerless twin stars! I think... even if we don't use these black-tech weapons manufactured by Lin Xian... ah, ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! I mean black-tech agricultural machinery in the military competition... there must be a way to win the championship!"

Director Chu Yun's smile gave all the people of the Dragon Kingdom peace of mind and confidence!

But for the President of the United States, who had just been full of arrogance and unruly... the smile at this moment was truly too terrifying!

He had clearly already pushed the Dragon Kingdom to such a point...

and had even proposed a multiple-choice question where both options were wrong!

So...

in such a predicament...

how could Director Chu Yun still smile?

"Dragon Kingdom representative! Mr. Director Chu Yun!"

The President of the United States had clearly lost his footing! He was burning with anxiety! He had lost the calmness he had just now!

He stared viciously at Director Chu Yun... and shouted loudly:

"Dragon Kingdom representative, regarding this matter... you must give the whole world an explanation! Give the whole world a promise!"

"As a permanent member of the United Nations... and the world's second-largest power! The Dragon Kingdom should demonstrate the proper demeanor and responsibility. You can't... just tonight, vow that the things Lin Xian manufactured were agricultural machinery... and then in the blink of an eye, have them appear on the military exercise field, right!? This is not the style of a great power!"

"If... you, the Dragon Kingdom, refuse to answer this question... then the people of the whole world can see it clearly! You are avoiding this question! This shows that you are guilty, you are fabricating facts, and you are deceiving the trust of the people of the whole world!"

The roar of the President of the United States plunged the whole scene into an ice-cold silence...

As it stands now.

This tug-of-war... indeed, the United States was standing on the moral high ground of "trust and honesty"...

The Dragon Kingdom had spent the whole night proving that these products were agricultural machinery.

If...
