Chapter 721: Different Trades Are Like Different Mountains

Actually, there were no clear regulations regarding surrogacy in the country at the very beginning; it was truly explicitly banned in 2001.

The original purpose of surrogacy was born to help infertile families obtain children.

Its original intention was very beautiful.

But under the influence of desire and money, the originally pure industry turned into a black industry that everyone denounced and scolded, creating huge social problems.

It even became a malignant sore that was difficult to eliminate in certain regions.

It is still the same saying: if anything is linked to money, it will go bad, and even human nature will deteriorate.

Surrogacy gradually lost its original essence because it became commercialized, and was finally abandoned by society.

"Is it possible?"

Captain Xu looked at Yu Dazhang with an incredulous gaze and asked uncertainly:

"To do the surrogacy business, they committed such a huge case?"

His tone carried doubt and disbelief, as if he thought such a thing could not happen.

Something is wrong... Yu Dazhang quickly noticed the unusual atmosphere.

He looked around at everyone present and found that everyone's expressions were similar, with puzzled and complex looks on their faces, as if the word "surrogacy" was very unfamiliar to them.

He had just noticed something was wrong.

With so many people present, not a single one thought of surrogacy, which he had not expected before the meeting.

Ding Wen's profession and the characteristics of the abducted personnel, just these two aspects could make Yu Dazhang unconsciously think of surrogacy, yet they seemed completely unaware.

Where is the problem?

Just as he was puzzled, one of the officers spoke:

"I also think that doing the surrogacy business is not worth committing such a huge case."

"Besides, commercialized surrogacy is currently only in a gray area; as long as it doesn't cross the line, there is basically no risk."

I know where the problem is... Hearing his words, Yu Dazhang immediately realized a key point.

Time!

The reason I could think that Ding Wen's acquisition of women of childbearing age was for surrogacy is because I actually reborn from 2024.

At that time, the state had already severely cracked down on surrogacy behavior.

But now it is 2015.

In December 2015, the amendment to the Family Planning Law deleted provisions such as "prohibiting surrogacy in any form" from the draft.

It changed from prohibiting surrogacy to regulating surrogacy.

Speaking of it, what made the state truly begin to ban surrogacy was in 2021, because a female star collapsed due to a surrogacy incident that year.

Because of her collapse, it triggered massive attention and discussion from netizens.

Since then, the surrogacy industry truly became a rat crossing the street.

Yu Dazhang scanned the faces of everyone present and gradually confirmed his guess in his heart.

That's right, at this point in time, surrogacy has not yet attracted enough attention.

Therefore, even though Ding Wen's identity was so obvious, they did not think in the direction of surrogacy.

"Do you know the price of surrogacy?" Yu Dazhang looked at everyone and asked.

Facing this question, so many people present fell silent for a moment, and not a single one answered him.

If it is not valued, naturally it is not paid attention to.

If these people had participated in an action to crack down on surrogacy, they would definitely have some understanding of it.

After waiting for a while and seeing that no one really answered, Yu Dazhang could only state the answer:

"Wuyou Baozi, the price starts at 700,000."
