The representatives fell silent for a mont before one of the Japanese loudly said, "Are you sure you want us to pay the penalty? Let tell you, once the penalty is paid, if you want to use our equipnt again, it won’t be as simple as sharing technology!"
The other representatives also began to create a ruckus, using their equipnt as leverage to put pressure on Su Yang.
In the distance, Number Three and Director Zhao were also full of anxiety. If the penalty was paid, the whole matter would be thoroughly ruined.
"Elder Hua, this Su Yang is going too far!" Director Zhao could no longer contain himself and whispered, "Even when you personally discussed it with him, he still wouldn’t agree to share technology? This involves the lives of so many people, how can he do such a thing?"
Although Elder Hua was also worried, he didn’t speak. With Su Yang appearing so confident just now, he was also curious to see how Su Yang would resolve the situation.
Moreover, Elder Hua couldn’t force Su Yang. After all, the technology was Su Yang’s. If Su Yang was willing to cooperate, it would be their good fortune. If not, no one could force him!
"Since I have said such things, I will definitely not regret it." Su Yang spoke loudly: "All the equipnt is downstairs, and I’ll say it again, I won’t share the technology with you. So, either you pay the penalty and take your equipnt away, or you save the penalty, and we continue to use the equipnt!"
The onlooking Huaxia citizens all erupted in approval, feeling a sense of relief at seeing the tough stance against these foreign groups, and their respect for Su Yang grew even more.
Of course, among them, so who truly understood the situation wore worried expressions.
Being tough is easy to do, but you need the capital to back it up. If this continues, won’t it ultimately be the sick nationals at ho who foot the bill?
Fang Jianhong sneered, "Don’t be so happy now. Just wait until his project stops, and we’ll see if he can still jump around!"
The Fang Family mbers also sneered endlessly, knowing that without this equipnt, the project would inevitably stop. By then, wouldn’t Su Yang be pointed at by thousands?
The representatives looked at each other, taken aback by the strong posture of the Huaxia side, sothing they had never encountered before. They were all full of surprise, wondering where Su Yang’s confidence stemd from.
But with the situation having reached this point, with so many reporters watching, they could not back down now.
"Su Yang, you indeed have guts!" Another Japanese stood out and said coldly, "But, you are too selfish. These projects concern the lives of many, potentially the survival of millions. Yet, for your own personal benefit, you make so many people pay for your interests, you will beco the sinner of your people!"
"Well said!" Imdiately, so people in the crowd started shouting, mainly the translators and so who were close to the foreign representatives.
Su Yang maintained a calm deanor and said coldly, "Since you know these projects concern the survival of millions, you still want to breach the contract. Who is being selfish, us or you?"
The Japanese imdiately said, "This equipnt is our technology. We let you use the equipnt, our technology, and you share your technology with us. What’s wrong with that?"
"Is that so?" Su Yang gave a cold laugh and said, "Since you say so, let’s make a trade. I’ll share my technology with you, and you share your technological assets with us. How about that? Let’s exchange, shall we?"
The Japanese representatives were tongue-tied. With these technologies in hand, it’s like having the lifeline of so dical research. As long as they had these technologies, they needn’t worry about obtaining other people’s research outcos.
Once they shared these technologies, their advantage would be gone. In the future, obtaining other research results would be impossible. Thus, sharing their own technology was out of the question!
"You’re not willing to share your technology with us but expect us to share ours with you?" Su Yang looked at the Japanese representatives and said coldly, "I didn’t expect soone as short as you to have such thick skin, truly remarkable!"
The scene erupted in laughter again, while the Japanese were so angry that their faces turned livid. The person in the lead angrily said, "We won’t waste words with you, since you’re being so obstinate, so be it. We’ll pay the penalty, and we want to take the equipnt imdiately!"
"Suit yourself!" Su Yang said loudly, "Pay the penalty now, and you can take the equipnt imdiately!"
"You’ll regret it!" the Japanese shouted angrily, getting to his feet, "Gentlen, it seems this man has no intention of cooperating with us. Since that’s the case, we’ll pay the penalty and take our equipnt, let them work in isolation!"
The representatives began to leave their seats amid an uproar, while people like Number Three and Director Zhao were in a state of panic. Su Yang, however, remained utterly nonchalant, not at all bothered by the situation.
Seeing this, the representatives realized they couldn’t coerce Su Yang anymore and took the last resort; they began to pay the penalty. It was the final option given by their companies; if all else failed, they had to pay a price, and they couldn’t allow the research on the Huaxia side to succeed.
Number Three and Director Zhao watched as the penalties were paid. Although they received thirty to forty billion just from the penalties alone, compared to the research outcos of these projects, that amount of money was nothing.
"Alas!" Number Three sighed, looking dejected. It was a project he had personally overseen, and now that it was gone, so was his future.
Director Zhao also frowned deeply, fully aware of the loss that would result from the projects stopping. But without Su Yang, the projects were critical. If Su Yang was unwilling to share the technology, what could anyone do?
Soon enough, the representatives had paid all the penalties and returned to the venue once more.
"From now on, our cooperation ends here!" The Japanese representative announced loudly. "Our people will take the equipnt away imdiately, and in the future, don’t even think about cooperating with us again; we will permanently cease all cooperation with you!"
The other representatives also shouted in agreent, affirming they would never cooperate with Su Yang again.
There was so commotion in the venue, with so of those in the know also reflecting on the situation. With the project stopped, it was the people of the country who would suffer the greatest loss.
So even began to shout, questioning whether Su Yang’s actions, causing the people to pay the price for his montary satisfaction, were correct or not. There were even those who began to angrily denounce Su Yang as selfish, for the sake of his own interest, and ignorant of the lives of so many, the very epito of selfishness!
Fang Jianhong wore a cold smile, hearing the crowd’s curses. He knew his goal had been achieved. Next, Su Yang would have an unbearable existence!
