Lu Xiaobu had a very comfortable three days, but things weren’t so comfortable over in Japan.
They were all trying every possible way to protest, retaliate, boycott, etc.!
And the most direct way they thought of was—boycott all products of the Lu Group!
From cola to Lao Ganma, from Absolute Shadow to LOL, as long as it was a product of the Lu Group, they left none un-boycotted!
Gotta admit, on the surface, it looked quite successful.
After all, Japan is a country that strongly adheres to orders. This kind of top-down, default action almost beca mandatory to promote.
For a while, Lu Group’s products were almost completely pulled off the shelves in Japan. Even if there were a few left, it was done discreetly.
So!
They were very excited!
"Hahaha! Lu Xiaobu is done for this ti!"
"Dare to ss with us in Japan?! We’ll make you suffer a huge loss!"
"I want to see when you’ll co back begging on your knees to us!"
"Losing our market, let’s see what you do now!"
"Do you really think we couldn’t deal with you?!"
"..."
The Japanese were smug!
Then, that night, the latest rankings on the Second Level Rich List ca out!
Originally just in the top twenty, Lu Xiaobu made another leap this ti!
Ranked fifth!
The Japanese were stunned!
"Why?! How could this happen?!"
"Yeah! It doesn’t make sense! I’ve investigated, all of Lu Xiaobu’s dostic products were volu-based, primarily earning from foreign markets! Why did his assets increase after losing our market?!"
"Why?! Unbelievable!"
"I don’t believe it! Lu Xiaobu must have cheated! Absolutely!"
"I don’t believe it either!"
"Strongly demand a thorough investigation! Must investigate clearly!"
"..."
The Japanese were going crazy, they couldn’t understand why despite boycotting Lu Xiaobu, his assets increased instead of decreasing.
People from the Heavenly Dynasty were overjoyed.
"These idiots! Boycotting Lu Group?! Although the Lu Group profits from international markets, they aren’t dependent on your Japanese market! Your boycott is useless!"
"Exactly! You guys don’t know, do you? Taking care of you this ti has been so satisfying, the entire Asian sales have increased! Combined with our dostic market, who needs your little part?!"
"Ridiculous, still waiting for Lu Xiaobu to kneel down and beg them?! Dream on! Wait for you to kneel and beg Young Master Bu!"
"So amusing! Are these Japanese taking themselves too seriously? How big is your market even?! Seriously!"
"Boycott Lu Group?! Why don’t you ask if Arica dares to boycott?! Back then, the Arican president even personally visited China to apply for LOL’s server!"
"What do you think Young Master Bu will do?"
"Do we even need to guess?! Of course, he’ll withdraw completely!"
"..."
Sure enough, after seeing Japan’s boycott, Lu Xiaobu imdiately issued the order: "Boycott ?! Withdraw completely! Shut down the LOL Japan server!"
Seriously, as if he was scared!
Boycott ?! Let’s see who boycotts whom!
Seeing Lu Xiaobu’s order, netizens from the Heavenly Dynasty got excited!
"Hahahaha, I knew it! Young Master Bu’s style!"
"Withdraw completely! And they shut down the LOL server, satisfying!"
"I feel these Japanese will definitely cry now!"
"Hahaha! I’m dying from laughter! What do you think they’ll do to beg Young Master Bu?!"
"Get on their knees and apologize! Hahahaha!"
"..."
Amid the laughter from the Heavenly Dynasty, the Japanese were looking quite blue!
"Bullshit! We won’t beg Lu Xiaobu at all!"
"Exactly! What is Lu Xiaobu even?!"
"As if we can’t live without the Lu Group’s products!"
"Withdraw?! Fine! If you withdraw, don’t co back! Get lost!"
"..."
At first, the Japanese seed quite tough!
But slowly, it didn’t work out!
The first to react were Japan’s professional gars and gaming clubs!
They make a living off this!
After investing so much initially, now that the servers are shut, what are they supposed to do?!
Patriotism is one thing, but you can’t let us starve!
Then, the otaku and oto began to feel uncomfortable!
Everyone knows about Japan’s otaku culture.
And what do these otaku and oto do every day?!
Isn’t it just playing gas and reading manga?!
Now that LOL’s Japan server is closed, how can they stay at ho?!
Also, there’s one more thing, cola, which in Japan is called ’fat otaku’s happy water’!
Now, as a fat otaku, without happy water, how can you happily stay at ho?!
This wasn’t even the end!
Slowly, more people couldn’t take it!
These were the users of Absolute Shadow phones, which also withdrew from the Japanese market. Although their phones weren’t completely unusable, many services had stopped!
Making them feel really uncomfortable!
Not everyone has the money to change phones anyti!
Besides, many of them bought Absolute Shadow on installnts, and the paynts weren’t complete yet, but they had to change phones, which annoyed them to no end!
And so, just like this!
The once tough voices of boycotting the Lu Group softened gradually!
"Well! Actually, I think we should still boycott rationally, at least it shouldn’t affect our daily lives, right!"
"Right, right, I think so too! Think about it! The eSports industry is already a global industry, falling behind wouldn’t be good either!"
"Exactly! I think it’s better to be rational! After all, boycotting won’t work!"
"That’s a great point! Since the boycott doesn’t work, we shouldn’t boycott! They aren’t affected, we are instead, this isn’t a boycott!"
"Right, right, it should be like this! Like this!"
"..."
Of course, there were still so stubborn ones!
"You bunch of cowards! Shaless people! Can’t you even show this bit of resilience?! Do you want Lu Xiaobu to laugh at us?!"
"Can’t live without gas? Is that it?!"
"So many gas in our country, isn’t that enough for you?!"
"As for those fat otaku, why don’t you exercise a bit?!"
"Really! Can’t distinguish between what’s important and what’s not?!"
"..."
And don’t ntion it, after these big hats were thrown down, many people dared not speak anymore!
After all, the voice of boycotting was still mainstream!
But this was just treating the symptoms, not the root cause. As ti passed, more and more people began feeling uncomfortable!
Hence, more voices erged wanting to bring back Lu Group’s products!
So even started a business buying products from the Heavenly Dynasty!
But, while they could shop for cola, they couldn’t shop for servers!
So!
These Japanese had to bow their heads!
