gloves, bare-chested, with an octagon cage in the background.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Fortunately, the relevant authorities could no longer tolerate this farce.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After all, Old Ma was still a national idol of entrepreneurship and a representative figure among businessmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hurun ranked him second globally.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>On the other side, although Lin Yi was not yet as famous as Old Ma,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>being marked by the higher-ups as a military supplier made him equivalent to the red-topped merchants of the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Therefore, both men represented entrepreneurs of Dragon Country.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If these two were to fight each other, it would damage the image of Dragon Country's entrepreneurs.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Consequently, both Fengyi Technology and Alibaba were summoned for a talk by the relevant authorities.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Only then did this farce finally end.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Of course, after this incident, far more people across the nation came to know Lin Yi.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Many only just learned that Dragon Country had another tycoon named Lin Yi,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>a man whose company had not only won a lawsuit against Alibaba but who had even challenged Jack Ma to a fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because of this, even Lin Lin Xiaomei, currently attending junior high in a small county town, called to cheer on her brother:\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Go for it, take down Old Ma!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However, upon seeing the announcements from both companies, she realized the fight would not happen after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Lin Lin Xiaomei felt extremely disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Clearly, she had wanted to witness her brother's triumphant prowess.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Of course, although Lin Yi had become famous, she had been warned by her parents\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>not to reveal anything at school.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Yet, when some girls scrolled through Weibo and news feeds on their phones,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>even junior high girls, upon seeing Lin Yi's current photos, wished they could lick the screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They exclaimed in unison how handsome he was.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Whenever this happened, Lin Lin Xiaomei inwardly screamed at the top of her lungs:\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"He is my brother, the brother who dotes on me the most...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Of course, Lin Lin Xiaomei had also asked about the changes her brother had undergone over these past few months.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The answer remained the same: a second growth spurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although Lin Lin Xiaomei did not understand how this second growth spurt could be so remarkable, she knew her brother was becoming increasingly handsome.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He was far more handsome than many of the celebrities chased by the girls in her class.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In Lin Lin Xiaomei's heart, Jack Ma was so ugly he resembled an alien;\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>how could he possibly compare to her own brother?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If the two were to fight, her brother would surely knock the other down in no time.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Incidentally, because Lin Yi had given the family a substantial amount of money,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>his elderly parents had already built an impressive Western-style house in their village.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Lin family had truly risen to prominence in the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Whenever Father Lin walked through the village now, he held his head high.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The village was even preparing to make him the Party Branch Secretary, reportedly at the suggestion of the municipal government.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Father Lin was still considering this offer.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Furthermore, regarding the twenty million left by Lin Yi previously,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>the municipal government of their hometown did not hesitate and quickly constructed a decent mountain-ring road for the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For this project, the municipal government had even advanced a significant amount of funds.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Nevertheless, the municipal government was delighted at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After all, last year Lin Yi's fame had been confined to the battery industry;\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>outside that circle, few people knew of Fengyi Technology.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This year, however, was different; Fengyi Technology had not only developed high-end carbon fiber,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>but the lawsuit against Alibaba and the challenged duel with Jack Ma\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>had truly sent the popularity of Fengyi Technology and Lin Yi soaring.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although he still could not compare to Old Ma, who was at the height of his power,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>he had nonetheless reached the status of a technological magnate in Dragon Country.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At present, what Lin Yi might lack was merely an asset valuation.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For an ordinary prefecture-level city under Guizhou Province,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>producing someone like Lin Yi was a matter requiring careful nurturing and support.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Had they not seen how the municipal government wanted to make Father Lin the Party Branch Secretary?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And had they not already repaired the roads?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The municipal government was simply waiting for Lin Yi's future investments in his hometown.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They assumed that a business tycoon like Lin Yi would certainly not be stingy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Had they not seen the newspapers stating he had invested ten billion in Suzhou in one go?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>That man was truly wealthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Back in their hometown, they would not dare hope for ten billion; securing an industry worth one billion would satisfy them completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However, Lin Yi currently had no time to concern himself with these matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because the reporter team from CCTV's \"News Broadcast\" had come to Modu over the past two days,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>they had made a special trip to Fengyi Technology.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In fact, CCTV had already called Fengyi Technology Company several days prior to this interview.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The intention was for the higher-ups to conduct positive publicity for high-tech enterprises in Modu.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thus, after the film crew arrived,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>they were thoroughly briefed on what to say, how to say it, and what absolutely must not be said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As the company's boss, Lin Yi would naturally make a formal appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Spending an entire day, one could say that all of Fengyi Technology cooperated with the CCTV film crew;\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>apart from some classified production processes,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>basically, the entire production workflow of Fengyi Technology had been opened up to the film crew.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Only then did the dispatched reporters realize that batteries and carbon fiber were actually manufactured in such a manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After concluding the interview, just before the film crew was set to depart, Lin Yi gave each person a generous red envelope along with local specialties from Modu.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This was standard practice, but receiving this much was a first for them,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>so the film crew was exceedingly satisfied with this interview.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They stayed in a five-star hotel provided by Fengyi Technology,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>ate top-tier cuisine accompanied by the company's CEO, Yang Chen, and finally received such substantial gifts.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The film crew could not help but sigh that a person like Lin Yi, who was so worldly-wise and talented,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>could possibly do anything but succeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And since they had accepted the other party's gifts, naturally, upon returning to the station, they would speak highly of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After seeing off the CCTV film crew,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Lin Yi returned to his daily routine.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Meanwhile, abroad, Syria was still engaged in fierce warfare with the Ugly Country,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Israel, lacking an air force, was being ganged up on by everyone,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>John Bull was licking his wounds while watching Argentina expel John Bull soldiers from the Malvinas Islands,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>as well as the referendum about to begin in Northern Ireland.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It was just that with the aircraft carrier sunk and the navy annihilated, although public sentiment within John Bull was inflamed with indignation,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>the John Bull government remained unusually quiet in these initial stages.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They absolutely refused to mention the matter of sending additional troops to Syria again.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After all, what John Bull needed now was to lick its wounds, not to help the Ugly Country start a war.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Chr\u002F>\u003Cp>\u003Cem>— Author's Notes —\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>0 ·Seeking Flowers··
