Chapter 216: Everyone is Equal, But Beasts Are Not People

"People of Sakura Country, their probability of having cancer is higher than everyone else's."

"And now, there won't even be ordinary Anti-cancer Drug available in the future; the mortality rate after getting cancer will be much higher than before. It really is..."

"... serves them right!"

"Support President Su, support Tianqi Group!"

"Those guys have always been a scourge and never do human things. Their current fate is the retribution they deserve. I strongly support President Su's decision!"

"Destiny Potion just won't be sold to them!"

"Just let them fend for themselves!"

Netizens from various countries discussed it with schadenfreude.

Some of them even posted many remarks adding insult to injury, continuously attacking Sakura Country and expressing strong approval of Su Xin's approach.

Regarding this, Sakura Country netizens were furious, one after another condemning Tianqi Group's actions and arguing with those netizens who made rude remarks.

"It's just a refusal to export the potion. You aren't paying, and your so-called prevention of our abuse and resale is just an excuse."

"Besides what the person above said, I actually have a better solution. That is, you should all simply renounce your Sakura Country citizenship."

"Therefore, if we agree to this condition, even if we impose restrictions on certain sensitive industries, just these private industries alone could bring us endless hidden dangers!"

"I look forward to seeing the elites of Sakura Country fleeing in a swarm, with the entire country's talent withering away. Such a scene must be very beautiful."

He used his own strength to develop many epoch-making technological products, founded Tianqi Group from nothing, and in just over a year, developed it into the world's number one financial group today.

Such a powerhouse, although he dealt a heavy blow to Sakura Country's economy, and although he excluded Sakura Country on the issue of Destiny Potion.

"Not to mention anything else, in the automotive industry alone, it was only by imposing tariffs and creating price differences that our local car companies had a chance to compete against Long Country cars."

Sometimes laughing weakly, sometimes crying sadly, sometimes with a face full of despair, eyes lifeless.

Even with such anger, the vast majority of Sakura Country people dared not aim their hostility at Su Xin; at most, they only expressed protests and dared not say anything too radical.

Under the witness of over a hundred large and small media outlets, Tianqi Group officially signed letters of intent with delegations from various countries.

"Please, President Su, have pity on us."

"May God have mercy!"

A large number of Sakura Country people liked the posts and left comments underneath, pushing the popularity, hoping to let Tianqi Group see it and hoping to move Su Xin.

If they offended Su Xin once more, it was hard to say if Destiny Potion would really be out of reach forever.

For a time, the whole world rejoiced.

They could not afford the consequences of a failed introduction of Destiny Potion; they would be attacked by the public until they stepped down, and it was even possible for some radical cancer patients to come to their door to demand their lives.

And while the internet was in an uproar.

Over the next few days.

Yet Tianqi Group's attitude was so tough, and they truly hadn't crossed the bottom line, so even if they wanted to fall out, they couldn't find an excuse.

"This will not only cause public anxiety but also bring many security risks to the country."

"As long as President Su agrees to sell Destiny Potion to Sakura Country, I am willing to set up a memorial tablet for President Su, worship him as a deity, and pray piously every day."

"Besides this, the first condition is also very excessive. With Tianqi Group's technological advantage, if there are no various control measures, local enterprises will have no power to resist. It might not take long before every industry is occupied by Tianqi Group."

"If we cancel the additional tariffs and cancel other control measures, our automotive industry will only decline more and more."

"Agree to their conditions and introduce the plan as soon as possible."

Because after learning that Destiny Potion was released, almost all cancer patients in the world focused their attention on the news of Destiny Potion and placed their hope of life on Destiny Potion.

But now, when those cancer patients in Sakura Country learned that only Sakura Country was excluded and could not receive the treatment of Destiny Potion, those people were suddenly desperate and crazy.

"It wasn't us who attacked President Su. We ordinary people have no grudges against President Su. On the contrary, I am a loyal user of all of President Su's products. Why take your anger out on me?"

The white-haired old man gave a cold snort, his gaze slowly sweeping over the others at the conference table.

"It makes sense. As long as there are no people in Sakura Country, then President Su's restrictive measures will become ineffective."

Besides some cancer patients hoping to let Su Xin see their piety through this method, more people were worshipping from the bottom of their hearts.

"Then agree to it."

"Strongly protest!"

"The voting result is 12 to 3."

"Then, everyone, please raise your hands to vote. Those who agree, raise your hands."

"Life is indeed equal. I strongly agree with this statement, but one point needs to be emphasized: that refers to human life. If it is a beast, of course, it cannot be equal to a human."

In the post, there were also more than twenty pictures, and the protagonist of these pictures was, without exception, a middle-aged woman with a bald head.

"It is true that not all people in Sakura Country attacked President Su, but those who gave the orders behind the scenes are representatives of Sakura Country. Unless the identities of those people are stripped and they all receive the punishment they deserve, only then can it be proven that the attack incident has nothing to do with the entire Sakura Country, and only then might you be forgiven by President Su."

In the pictures, the middle-aged woman had a weak face, pale complexion, thin figure, and was haggard. Most of the photos showed her lying in bed, with her body connected to various infusion tubes and instruments.

"Of course, this is just my opinion, not President Su's attitude. If Sakura Country people really want Destiny Potion, why not try my line of thinking? Perhaps you could be forgiven by President Su?"

"Tell me, which one to choose?"

The white-haired old man announced expressionlessly.

"Life should be equal! You cannot implicate the lives of ordinary people because of a struggle!"

"The person above said it well. My twenty-meter-long broadsword almost couldn't be pulled back."

Until the third phase of clinical trials ended.

"There is an old saying in Long Country: saving a life is better than building a Level One pagoda. If President Su sells Destiny Potion to Sakura Country, it is equivalent to indirectly saving countless people. That is a massive merit!"

Most Long Country people, seeing the treatment of Sakura Country, not only had no sympathy but instead gloated and even mocked them sarcastically.

In Yingjiang Country, at a meeting personally chaired by the white-haired old man, a blond man in a crisp suit said angrily.

Everyone looked at each other, and most of them slowly raised their left hands.

"There are tens of millions of cancer patients, and several million are added every year. With such a large amount of patient identity information leaked, the confidential intelligence that might be exposed is too much."

And he can be called the top-level powerhouse on a global scale.

However, there are quite a few people in Sakura Country who have a fanatical worship of Su Xin.

He naturally belongs to the strong.

"Tianqi Group's current attitude is so tough and refuses to budge at all; we only have two choices."

A netizen from Sakura Country even posted on Tiantian Forum, begging Su Xin with an incomparably humble attitude:

And there are quite a few posts similar to this one.

Even when some people from Sakura Country post negative comments about Tianqi Group on the internet regarding the Destiny Potion, those fanatical worshippers will take the initiative to attack, defend Tianqi Group, and fight desperately to speak for Su Xin.

Hmm... except for Sakura Country.

The various remarks from Sakura Country, when reposted domestically, made many people feel quite satisfied.

"Does Tianqi Group treat its own users like this? How can it be so overbearing?!"

"The measures that President Su mentioned at the beginning were only aimed at those with Sakura nationality; as long as one renounces their Sakura nationality, they can get rid of this trouble."

Both of these conditions make us feel very troubled, but if we cannot get the Destiny Potion, our situation will be even more difficult.

Su Xin is a typical strong person.

"There are others, such as Artificial Intelligence programs, medicine, Semiconductors, and more industries that Tianqi Group may enter in the future, all of which may be occupied by them one by one."

He also developed the Destiny Potion, a product of great significance to all mankind, with his own strength, and is about to save countless lives.

"Sakura Country has over one million new cancer patients every year, and there are tens of millions of existing cancer patients. If there is no Destiny Potion, and in the future even Anti-cancer Drugs are unavailable, these patients will all lose their lives because of this. My God! Just thinking about such a scene makes me shudder!"

Hearing these words, the white-haired old man knocked on the table angrily, his face gloomy as he said:

This post sparked a heated discussion.

Various countries are urgently exploring the feasibility of Tianqi Group's two conditions.

But they can do nothing about Tianqi Group and can only be submissive, begging humbly through various channels over and over again, just like believers begging for mercy from gods in despair.

"Anyway, with your system, as long as everyone works together, changing a representative shouldn't be difficult; it just depends on whether you have figured it out."

"The life of a beast cannot be equal to that of a human; this statement makes a lot of sense. I suggest that all people in Sakura Country take a good look at it."

They are still hoping for a chance to make amends.

"Haha! It's impossible. Whoever wants to treat cancer must first find a way to immigrate to other countries."

"You've said so much, so tell me, what should we do? Should we not agree to their conditions? Should we give up on the Destiny Potion?"

"Relying on the Destiny Potion, they dare to put forward such excessive conditions! A mere foreign company, by what right do they demand to control the identity information of our patients?"

"As long as President Su agrees to sell the Destiny Potion to Sakura Country, I will regard him as our god!"

"Generally speaking, immigration requires vetting age, financial conditions, professional technical skills, language ability, and health status, which is not that easy. Not to mention cancer patients. Of course, the stricter the vetting, the better; anyway, these are things for the people of Sakura Country to worry about."

The people of Sakura Country have a strange trait: they fear power but not virtue, and they fanatically worship the strong.

"Please, President Su! My mother has liver cancer and is already in the late stages. The doctor said she has at most one year left to live. Please sell the Destiny Potion to Sakura Country and save my mother!"

The two sides finally reached an agreement.

The blond man couldn't help but fall silent.

"Or should we reject their conditions and give up on the Destiny Potion?"

"Damn it, Tianqi Group is too much!"

"We are willing to jointly recommend that President Su be enshrined as the supreme god of Sakura Country! To be written into textbooks, placed on the altars of every household, and carved into the depths of everyone's soul! Let everyone praise President Su's divine power and grace every day."

"Until the automotive industry was occupied by Long Country cars in a large part of the market, and half of the local car companies went bankrupt."

After receiving the details provided by the higher-ups, each delegation went back and forth with Tianqi Group to discuss the bottom-line issues of some sensitive industries.

He swept through the Sakura Country stock market and foreign exchange market with his own strength. Under the joint resistance of many domestic and international capitals, he forcibly stirred up a terrible economic crisis in Sakura Country, even causing many financial groups and countries to suffer losses.

"Look, everyone is offering advice for the people of Sakura Country; they are truly so kind."
