Hearing that, there was immediate chaos.

Right, why didn’t I think of that? Even if the Heavenly State military were to offer an olive branch, considering their work efficiency…

Hehe, this requires at least half to one year. Even if conditions were given, it’s impossible to be effective right away!

Yes, what do we want? It’s to project our company. If Hong Weiguo was kicked out of the Resource Chamber of Commerce, and his assets reduce, Hong Dali won’t have so much money to come up with new projects. That will be our goal.

That’s right. As long as Hong Dali doesn’t dabble in everything, what’s there to worry about?

The crowd had already decided in their hearts. Qian Guangzhao proceeded to throw a second heavyweight bomb.

Ladies and gentlemen, what I’ve mentioned is still not enough!
Qian Guangzhao shouted,
Hong Weiguo is eager to protect his own son. Hong Dali’s luck is undefeatable. I don’t know what else he will be up to in the future. But!
Qian Guangzhao laughed.
I have already gotten support from some very important people!

The crowd:
Really? Who are they? Name them for everyone’s pleasure?




Hehe, these important people…
Qian Guangzhao pointed to the top of his head and slowly said,
Includes people from many different places. It’s not convenient for me to name them now. But I can assure everyone that the status of these people in Heavenly State is definitely equal or better than Sun Yuanzhou, CEO Sun!

Equal or better than Sun Yuanzhou!
Who was Sun Yuanzhou? He was a super mogul that monopolized more than 40% of the electrical appliances market in Heavenly State! Equal or better than Sun Yuanzhou, that was at least the level of the five oligarchs! If there were three… no, just two more, taking up the majority of the five oligarchs, then everything was a foregone conclusion!
Linking it to his earlier actions, the crowd was stunned.
CEO Qian, you managed to get support from three arbitrations?!

Qian Guangzhao winked and gave them a
you know it
look. Then, he threw out the third heavyweight bomb.
Of course, these won’t be enough. The most important is the third thing. Which is what I’m about to reveal!

For this, I will need everyone to wait for a while. About ten minutes. Don’t get anxious, let me make a call. We should have news very soon.

Saying that, Qian Guangzhao smoothed his clothes and walked out.
After he left the room, the crowd got curious.
Qian Guangzhao actually said the two things he mentioned earlier were nothing, and the third thing was most important. What would it be exactly?
…


Exiting the conference room, Qian Guangzhao took a deep breath.
This was no easy matter. He had said everything he could, even things that were hidden deep under the drawer in order to settle down the crowd’s feeling of uncertainty.
With his status in Heavenly State, he had to admit that Hong Dali was a big headache. Creating such a Mechanical Holy Garment and almost dissolving the steady alliance that he established. Fortunately, he still had a trump card. Otherwise, it would be tough to carry out his plan.

Damn, how did the Hong family come out with such an evildoer?
Qian Guangzhao yelled scornfully. He took out his smartphone and installed an encryption device before dialing a number.

Is this Mr. Shiroishi? I’m Qian Guangzhao.
Qian Guangzhao slowly said,
I believe Mr. Shiroishi is aware of the Mechanical Holy Garment created by Hong Dali?


Yes.
Shiroishi Kazuma sounded calm.
I’ve been following the news on the internet. I knew the instant Mechanical Man appeared.


En, does Mr. Shiroishi have any counter-measures?
The third thing, the third thing that Qian Guangzhao mentioned, the most important thing, was Shiroishi Kazuma’s Toyoda Conglomerate! With the support of one of the world’s top ten—Toyoda Conglomerate—who would doubt their position on the Resource Chamber of Commerce? No one, absolutely no one!
Toyoda Conglomerate started from the automobile industry. After so many years of expansion and development, they were involved in all professions and trades. In Heavenly State, the companies that cooperated with them were like the river. As long as they said a word, they had the ability to mobilize countless resources within the country.
What Qian Guangzhao wanted now was for Shiroishi Kazuma to nod his head—once he agreed, Qian Guangzhao would announce that he had the support of Toyoda Conglomerate. That would clear everyone’s doubts.
But it was obvious that Qian Guangzhao got more than Shiroishi Kazuma’s agreement.


That was because Shiroishi Kazuma was truly afraid. The reading app, Spiritual Sword, and now Mechanical Man. Shiroishi Kazuma was truly afraid.
Hence, what was on their minds was how to completely get rid of this variable, Hong Dali.
Shiroishi Kazuma was a scheming and calculative man. Once he decided to do something, it was absolutely necessary to achieve the goal at all costs. Hence, he said with great certainty,
I have thought about it carefully these two days. Hong Dali is no longer a problem to just our company, but a problem between countries. What he’s doing does not only affect Toyoda Conglomerate, it affects the security of our Jaban empire. I have decided to ask our company president to convince the Emperor of Jaban empire to issue terms. To use Sakana Island in exchange for the technology behind Mechanical Man… and Hong Dali’s freedom!


My… my god!
Hearing that, Qian Guangzhou’s heart nearly leaped out of his chest.
Sa… Sakana Island! Mr. Shiroishi, you mean, to use an island in exchange for Hong Dali?!

Sakana Island, also known as Sea Turtle Island, was located 320 kilometers south of Jiangsu Province and Zhejiang Province, covering an area of 4.6 square kilometers. The surrounding sea area was about 196,000 square kilometers, known as the
Pearl in the Deep Sea.
Sea Turtle Island had always been an inherent territory of the Heavenly State. However, in the past ten years, Jaban State had been competing with the Heavenly State for the ownership of Sea Turtle Island.
Now, what Shiroishi Kazuma meant was to convince the Jaban State emperor to give up Sea Turtle Island to Heavenly State in exchange for the Mechanical Holy Garment and Hong Dali’s freedom!
Such a price tag had gone far beyond the concept of money.
Territory! This was the extent of the territory! Such a favorable condition, would Heavenly State reject this offer?

Yes.
Shiroishi Kazuma was very certain.
Using the controversial ownership of Sakana Island in exchange for the technology of the Mechanical Holy Garment and Hong Dali’s freedom. I think that it’s very worthwhile.
But there was something he did not say. That was, if the Heavenly State’s military got all the technology of the Mechanical Man, the military strength of the Heavenly State would increase significantly. The most crucial question was, what else would Hong Dali come up with in the future?!
Hence, Shiroishi Kazuma raised such conditions. Of course, it was not convenient to say this in front of Qian Guangzhao, someone from Heavenly State.



Okay. I understand!
Nothing more needed to be said. Qian Guangzhao was ready to hang up the phone.
I will arrange accordingly, then. Oh yes, Mr. Shiroishi, can we add Hong Weiguo in the terms?

Shiroishi Kazuma calmly said,
Sure.

Qian Guangzhao took a deep breath and pushed open the conference room door with excitement. He laughed out loud.
There’s news. This time, it’s fixed in stone. Absolutely!


What’s the good news? Tell us, quick!

Is it true? Are you certain? But CEO Qian, you’re looking good. This should really be good news?


Absolutely no problem! We’re close to the mark, not far off!
Qian Guangzhao excitedly said,
I was on the phone with Toyoda Conglomerate’s Mr. Shiroishi Kazuma. Mr. Shiroishi said that Jaban intends to give up the ownership of Sakana Island, also known as Sea Turtle Island, in exchange for the building technology of the Mechanical Holy Garment, as well as Hong Weiguo and Hong Dali!

Once he said that, chaos ensued!

It can’t be? Would Jaban State bear to do that?

That’s right, haven’t they been fighting with us over Sakana Island? Now they’re willing to give up the fight of the ownership for two people?

This is a good thing. Think about it, Heavenly State will have complete ownership of Sea Turtle Island. The condition is just two people, Hong Weiguo and Hong Dali. Once Hong Dali loses his freedom, the biggest hidden danger will be gone. Once Hong Weiguo goes down together, we will be able to sleep in peace. Haha!

Jaban State wants to use an island in exchange for two people, Heavenly State is on the winning end. Hahahaha!

Hearing the discussions, Qian Guangzhao was overjoyed.
This was a sudden glimpse of hope in the dark mist. His concerns were all gone.
Jaban State gave up fighting for the ownership of Sea Turtle Island, in exchange for the Mechanical Holy Garment and the pair of father and son, Hong Weiguo and Hong Dali. Jaban State would gain the building technology of the Mechanical Holy Garment, Heavenly State would retain the technology as well as the Sea Turtle Island. Things were in Qian Guangzhao’s favor—all his worries would be completely removed. Hong Weiguo’s impeachment was no longer a personal grievance between him and Hong Weiguo.


Three wins. This was three wins!
As to Hong Weiguo and Hong Dali’s outcome? Don’t joke around. In the face of territorial disputes, what was a little sacrifice of one or two people?
In any case, Heavenly State already had the technology behind the Mechanical Holy Garment. Hong Dali was just a prodigal son. Getting locked up was nothing.
…
At the same time, Merika, Hollywood.
This was the nth round of the Round Table Conference. Every time there was something related to Hong Dali, the Round Table Conference would be held. It had become a habitual thing for Hollywood people.
This time, the expressions of the people attending the meeting were especially stern.
In this time and era where information exchange was frequent and aplenty, once something was posted on the internet, interested people would find out in an instant.
It was obvious Hollywood knew the instant Mechanical Man appeared.

Mechanical Man! This Hong Dali must he be so dramatical every time!
James gritted his teeth and loudly banged on the table. His hand was red from the hitting. Dispirited, he said,
He came up with some Mechanical Man this time! If he uses this as a movie prop we will be in deep trouble!
