Chapter 61 Sakura Country? Sorry, not for sale
The controversy over Xiaguo's packaged sale of controlled nuclear fusion technology is getting bigger and bigger.
Just after Western European countries purchased nuclear fusion technology, the United States across the ocean finally couldn't sit still.
Albert finally couldn't bear the pressure from all sides and dialed Xiaguo's national hotline.
"Ahem... Senator Li, long time no see!"
In the White House President's Office of the United States, Albert frowned and said against his will: "Mr. Speaker, I'm very happy to have this conversation with you."
Hearing the voice coming from the transoceanic phone, Speaker Li's eyes suddenly showed a little smile.
"President Albert, hello, hello, how are you doing recently?"
On the other side of the ocean, Albert listened to the voice in the microphone and his mouth twitched slightly.
How are you doing?
Is this a question that should be asked on the national hotline? !
But thinking of the purpose of this call, Albert had to pinch his nose and said: "Um... Thank you for your concern, Speaker. I'm in good health recently."
"Haha, that's good, good health is the most important!"
"Mr. Albert, at your age, you have to take good care of yourself!"
The meaningful voice in the microphone made Albert's forehead full of black lines.
What does this mean?
What do you mean my age? !
What's wrong with my age!
If it weren't for the fact that he needed help from others, Albert would have wanted to curse directly at the microphone!
"Ahem! Speaker, let's talk about business!"
Albert said stiffly: "I heard that your country is selling controlled nuclear fusion technology abroad?"
The smile in the Speaker's eyes became more and more intense: "Of course!"
"What? President Albert is interested in this technology?"
"Has the United States not developed this technology yet?"
Albert's face suddenly darkened.
Damn...
He naturally heard the teasing meaning in the Speaker's words.
Although he wanted to hang up the phone directly, he had to bow his head under the eaves.
"Uh... Well, the United States has mastered the controlled nuclear fusion technology!"
Albert rolled his eyes and lied casually: "It's just that the technology is still in the laboratory and has not yet fully matured."
"You know, those researchers are very slow!"
Councillor Li chuckled and changed the subject in a very relaxed tone: "Oh? Then Mr. Albert's purpose of calling this time is not to complain to me about the low efficiency of your country's researchers?"
Albert: "..."
"Ahem!" He coughed hard twice, and then said awkwardly: "It's not about this..."
"..."
After some friendly negotiations, the United States finally bought the full set of controlled nuclear fusion technology.
...
When Xia announced that the United States had purchased the full set of controlled nuclear fusion technology, all Xia people... no, all countries were shocked!
"Hahaha! Good guy, I just called him good guy!"
"I thought the United States could be tougher! I didn't expect that it couldn't resist the temptation of controlled nuclear fusion!"
"Is there any big hand to count how many copies of controlled nuclear fusion technology Xia has sold now?"
"There is no official notification. I guess the Western powers should have bought it."
"Here we have to mention our Saudi dog big customer. I heard that they not only bought a full set of technology, but also paid a lot of money to pay for Xia's construction team!"
"What dog big customer? That's our good brother!"
...
Unlike a number of Western developed countries, the Sakura Country, located next to Xia, is not living very comfortably.
"Please!"
"Our country really needs this technology!"
In the reception room of Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, the Prime Minister of Sakura Country looked solemn and bent his waist to Councillor Li.
Unlike other countries, Sakura Country is surrounded by the sea.
As an island country, Sakura Country has extremely scarce domestic resources.
The power of nuclear power plants is the source of most of their domestic electricity.
Originally, nuclear fission power plants could barely meet the needs of Sakura Country, but the successive earthquakes and tsunamis in recent years have sounded the alarm for the top leaders of Sakura Country.
Nuclear fission power plants are too dangerous!
But Sakura Country cannot do without nuclear power plants.
Therefore, when they learned that Xia Country was selling controlled nuclear fusion technology, the top leaders of Sakura Country were the first to be unable to sit still!
In order to show their sincerity, Sakura Country specially sent their prime minister to negotiate in person with Xia Country.
But... sincerity is sincerity, but the result does not seem to be very good.
Looking at the Prime Minister of Sakura Country bowing to him in front of him, Councillor Li gently picked up the teacup beside the table and sipped the tea in the cup.
"Sorry, we don't sell this technology."
The moment he heard this, the Prime Minister of Sakura Country turned pale.
He quickly straightened up and bowed again.
This time the degree of bending was much greater than the last time.
Even his forehead hit his knees!
"Please sell it to Sakura Country!"
"We can negotiate! Sakura Country is willing to pay any price for it!"
Speaker Li put down the teacup in his hand, and his expression became a little serious.
He stood up slowly, looking at the Prime Minister of Sakura Country in front of him with extremely stern eyes.
"Xia Country's technology will never be sold to a country that dares not even acknowledge its history!"
"Not now, and even less in the future!"
"You, did you hear clearly?"
The Prime Minister of Sakura Country's face flushed red. He stood up and pursed his lips as if he wanted to say something.
But Chairman Li suddenly waved his hand to interrupt him.
"Come on, show the guests!"
...
In just a few hours, the fact that Sakura Country tried to buy controlled nuclear fusion technology and was rejected caused a heated discussion on Weibo.
"Hahaha, well done!"
"Can't we sell this technology to these little... Sakura people who live a good life!"
"Don't we have nuclear fission power plants? Let them live with nuclear power plants in the future!"
"Am I the only one who thinks this is not good? The high-level officials of Xia Country have lost Xia Country's reputation by doing this!"
"Reputation? What reputation? Have you seen the United States talk about credibility in the past?"
"The former Xia Country: Hello everyone, I am Xia Country, I am very civilized and reasonable, and you can come to me if you have any problems."
"The current Xia Country: Hello everyone, I am Xia Country, I am the reason!"
...
Chairman Li sat in his office, watching the domestic response to this incident, and a trace of relief flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"How many years have passed..."
"This is the first time that Xiaguo has been so proud of itself in the international arena!"
"Great! Really great!"
The Minister of Finance He Zhiye, who was standing nearby, also had an excited look in his eyes: "Chairman, now our mineral resources should be barely enough!"
Although a set of nuclear fusion technology only requires 28 billion US dollars of mineral resources, the quantity is too large!
The chairman nodded slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "No hurry, arrange for the factory to smelt these ores first."
"Store them well after smelting."
"How to use them... Wait for news from Lu Yongchang!"
