Chapter 714: A smoke filled press conference.
The Commercial Office of the American Embassy affiliated with the Chinese Department of Commerce, its responsibility is to act as a commercial bridge between China and the United States and promote trade between the two countries. This Trade Office is not a company engaged in import and export trade, so it was unclear that the United States had set up more than one special business office in China.
Almost everyone thought that the US Department of Commerce wouldn't send people, and even if they did, they wouldn't arrive in time, because there wasn't enough time to fly from the American mainland to China and unexpectedly, they directly sent a representative from the Trade Office of the national business office!
The national media was completely abuzz, and the arrival of the U.S. Department of Commerce representative meant that this Huge Industrial Monster conference will receive more attention from more countries, and the big news that they looked forward to has become even more important.
Right now in the United States, it was just when corporate and government employees are furloughed.
The main English edition of Time Magazine has few readers in China, but in the United States, it is one of the best-selling weekly magazines with considerable influence.
Time Magazine used the cover and five pages to feature the Huge Industrial Monster. Even if Americans were unaware of its existence before, they will hear the name of the Huge Industrial Monster this time. In addition, a few months ago, the Huge Industrial Monster's Lord Duan Battleship, in rough seas, rescued the overturned Sapphire.
Time Magazine targeted the Huge Industrial Monster. The American people will be unhostile to the Huge Industrial Monster for no reason. They believe in their own judgment. This judgment is that remote driving is unreliable.
At nine o'clock, hundreds of media reporters entered the technology center of the Huge Industrial Monster Building.
Debugging the interview material is a long-term job, and reporters can take the opportunity to read more information provided by the Huge Industrial Monster, walk around the building, and at the same time express countless amazement, and catch several employees for interviews at the same time. When the domestic media equipment was almost debugged, a group of foreign reporters entered. They actually came earlier than the national media, these US Department of Commerce officials came earlier than them, so the national media called them and had a verbal meeting.
"Look at it later, those American reporters will definitely find something wrong with the press conference." A veteran reporter quietly winked at the assistant next to him.
"Isn't there a good show to watch?"
"These American reporters are trolling each other, and they don't know if the Huge Industrial Monster can withstand it."
"It depends on the Huge Industrial Monster, whether they are willing to give up this remote driving function," The old reporter sighed: "Since the Americans have all sent representatives from the Ministry of Commerce, it shows they are aggressive. I really don't know what kind of drugs Americans are taking, and why management came to the Huge Industrial Monster."
"Americans aren't taking the wrong drug, they're being boosted."
Three days ago, the plasma battery test report jointly released by Raytheon Technology Corporation, Tesla Corporation, and the US Energy Administration was submitted to the table in the President's office. In this report, the results of their tests on various military electronic equipment based on plasma batteries are detailed. Unexpectedly, I don't know why, and he was shocked by the test.
Even the plasma battery of the civilian mass-production version, when applied to military electronic equipment, the performance of this equipment can also be multiplied by terror. If it is used in the field of reconnaissance drones and small special submarines, it will lead to a qualitative change. The advantaged United States has completely withdrawn from the altar and has become a crushed chasm between the backward countries. After reading the report, it's also possible Mr. President's spine was sweating.
Since the Huge Industrial Monster had the technology to mass-produce plasma batteries above the civilian version of the Shi Lei car, there must be a military version with better performance. In this regard, the intelligence service may collect clues from the energy department of China.
In addition, China has started to reduce the export of Dysprosium metal on a large scale and allocate it to the Huge Industrial Monster! If there wasn't an exchange of interests here, five-year-olds wouldn't believe it.
It was a major energy threat. The United States is facing China, not to mention the Huge Industrial Monster, and the leaders of the United States must grit their teeth and act fast to secure their status as a world leader.
At half-past nine, Ye Qing was gently awakened by the two flight attendants.
"How long have I slept?"
Ye Qing shook his head dazedly, and it looked like he was used to a good life. When he was in college, Ye Qing would go out of town overnight to repair machine tools for customers, and he would return to Shanghai the next day, saving a lot of room expenses.
"Fifty minutes past four, boss, you need to wake up, the press conference is waiting for you."
Su Yu handed Ye Qing a cup of strong tea in time to refresh him.
......
When Ye Qing drove back to the Huge Industrial Monster Building, the press conference was about to begin. In the science and technology center, hundreds of domestic and foreign media eagerly awaited him. Seeing his arrival, several general managers who had already prepared, immediately greeted him.
"Boss, they're waiting for you."
Yang Baihe, the director of the propaganda department, wore an off-white short skirt and work suit today. With her beautiful figure and delicate features, she gave people a very amazing feeling. Kong Tao was also wearing a sassy bag, a new sky blue Sheluton suit, and his hair had probably just been styled in the Tianying Building hair shop in the morning, and it was bright enough to be used as a mirror. On the other side, Ye Qing wore a casual suit, a casual suit with no noticeable marks, which was very suitable for traveling.
"Are the people from the US Department of Commerce here?"
"Did they come?! There are four in total. The representative is Mr. Bissell from the Trade Office of the Embassy in China, seated in the front row."
After checking the time, it was five minutes to ten. Ye Qing took a deep breath. There was neither drowsiness nor laziness in his eyes. There was only a young president who was very determined and proud and had the confidence to make a decision with the entire US Department of Commerce.
Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of media outlets and under the careless gaze of several U.S. Commerce Department officials with his legs crossed and lazily arrogant expression, Ye Qing led Yang Baihe and Kong Tao into the technology center of a not constant and walked confidently to the podium.
Cellphone lights flickered wildly below the stage, and media reporters stood up one by one to applaud the host. Among them, some people came here from the bottom of their hearts, but also some people show disdain, and casually take a few random photos for the show.
At ten o'clock sharp, the Huge Industrial Monster's press conference officially began. At the same time, Bissell, the prominent representative of the commercial department in his forties, drew an imperceptible arc at the corner of his mouth.
"Welcome to all of you. First of all, I would like to say hello to you. Thank you for coming to the press conference organized by our Huge Industrial Monster."
At the speakers' table, Kong Tao read his opening remarks familiarly.
"I think everyone already knows the reason why we held this press conference."
Kong Tao smiled at the audience, then handed everyone a magazine. It was a magazine with a brand-new cover and the Huge Industrial Monster logo on the cover and the national media shouted in unison.
"I'm counting on ~ It's Time Magazine!"
It was no surprise that the Huge Industrial Monster received this magazine for more than a day. It was strange the Huge Industrial Monster released him at the press conference.
You all know... in addition to the logo on the cover of the magazine, there was also a title on the cover of Time Magazine; ‘A feudal technological empire'.
In an instant, the flashing lights burst like a galaxy of stars in the night sky, and the national media was thrilled they had already smelled the smoke from that press conference.
"A feudal empire of science and technology."
Kong Tao smiled disapprovingly: "Time Magazine rates us like this, and we won't comment."
"However, I would like to ask the US representative a question before the press conference. Yesterday, the US representative announced through official channels that if we do not abandon the remote driving function, he will ban the sale of Shi Lei cars. in the US market. On this question, I would like to ask the US representative. Did your country carry out market research before issuing this statement?"
