Chapter 206: 10 Billion Reward

The next day, the first day of the Lunar New Year.

The news that "Black Hole Group Executive Pu Weicai was arrested" shocked the whole country and caused an uproar.

Relevant departments in China held an emergency press conference to express severe condemnation and dissatisfaction, demanding that he be released immediately, otherwise he would bear all the consequences.

The tourism management department also immediately issued a 'risk warning', urging citizens to be cautious when traveling to island countries.

Within a few hours, the security agency announced the capture of three foreign spies suspected of engaging in illegal intelligence activities.

They all seem to be of island nationality.

The series of actions can be described as quick and decisive, and the attitude is very tough.

Great pressure was exerted.

but……

After two or three days of back and forth.

The island country did not release the man and insisted: "This is just an ordinary commercial dispute and has nothing to do with other factors."

"Black Hole Lithography Machine Company has infringed on our technology patents."

At this time, ASMED jumped out: "We won the patent lawsuit, but Black Hole Group refused to pay 10 billion U.S. dollars in compensation. We can only turn to all governments that respect intellectual property rights to help us recover this compensation."

"Our actions are completely legitimate and legal. Except for a few countries, all countries have stood on the side of supporting intellectual property rights. Within the Western Technology Sharing Alliance, whether it is an island country or other countries, as long as there is infringement of intellectual property rights, they will support it. Victims have the obligation to sue and arrest technology thieves, including recovering compensation... There is nothing inappropriate in our approach.”

"As long as the Black Hole Group respects the outcome of the judgment and pays all compensation. Or the president of the Black Hole Group comes to Holland in person to discuss the issue, it is not impossible for both parties to reach a settlement. We hope to have strategic level communication and dialogue. , instead of being an ostrich that avoids the problem.”

The Western propaganda machine was soon in full swing.

Various news about Black Hole Lithography Machine Company's infringement of EsMed's intellectual property rights are overwhelming. The evidence is conclusive that Black Hole Group has indeed infringed on multiple technology patents and ignored the judgment and refused to pay even 1 cent in compensation.

Even humiliating them with Hades coins.

This will make most Western keyboard warriors very angry:

"Mother FXXk!"

"Shit! What a shit company of thieves."

"Our advanced technology is almost stolen by these sons of bitches."

"We can no longer tolerate their technology theft behavior to continue. If they are found, they will be caught and sentenced severely! A fine of 10 billion knives is too small. They should be fined 100 billion or 1 trillion until they dare not reach out."

"They steal technology, refuse to be punished, and humiliate us... We must let these technological terrorist companies die, they must die!"

"It's always been like this, it's always been like this! They haven't changed in so many years, and they haven't listened to a word of advice. My patience with them has been exhausted. Now I only have anger and hatred."

"How can I stop them? If there is a button in front of me, as long as it can punish them, even if it is a nuclear button, I will press it without hesitation."

Of course there are a few sane voices.

"You have been brainwashed by the fake news created by propaganda agencies. In fact, the EUV manufactured by Black Hole Lithography Machine Company is more advanced and one generation ahead of our products. There is no patent infringement issue."

"This was a premeditated kidnapping operation, and the anger of the Chinese people is completely justified."

However, these rational voices accounted for less than 1%, and they were violently attacked, insulted and reported, and were drowned in the tide of anger.

The official platform has blocked thousands of "rumor accounts", and any social accounts that hold different opinions or even provide evidence to prove the innocence of Black Hole Lithography Machine Company have been permanently blocked.

More than 90% of Western netizens strongly support the island country's approach and even think that too few people have been arrested. If the number of tourists traveling to the island country is greatly reduced because of this, they will go there!

In short, there must be no compromise on this matter, no compromise with robbers and thieves.

On the island, the proportion of people who support the detention of Black Hole Group executives exceeds 70%. Although businesses have been complaining and the number of tourists has plummeted by 50% in just a few days, the proportion of businesses is only a small part. Most islanders are already tough. The attitude, and even that of many businesses, is superficially friendly, but deep down they are hostile, and they only smile and greet people in order to make money.

Seeing that they have such a high support rate and have not messed up the matter, the politicians naturally have more fun. Not to mention letting people go, they also protest in turn and demand that they be released immediately. Release the three innocent islanders. Stop. The hostages were handed over.

You come and go, noisy and entangled for more than half a month, but there is still no progress.

There is no hope of adopting a fixed process to solve the problem.

February 15th.

The Black Hole Group released an announcement, which attracted worldwide attention.

"Ten billion reward announcement!" 》

The Black Hole Group will spend 10 billion to set up a rescue fund. For the kidnapped Pu Weicai family of four, the reward order stipulates: whoever can rescue one person will receive a reward of 2.5 billion; whoever can rescue two people will receive a reward of 2.5 billion. You can get a 5 billion bounty... By analogy, whoever can rescue Pu Weicai's family can get the entire 10 billion bounty!

Of course, if death occurs, if one person dies, the bounty will be reduced by 2.5 billion. It must be ensured that everything is intact and unscathed.

As for the payment method, whether it is soft currency, rice knives, euros or even physical gold payment.

And in order to prove its ability to pay, Black Hole Group deliberately spent 100 billion in cash to purchase up to 200 tons of gold from banks, including gold ownership certificates, and placed them in the center of the city square for everyone to take photos and visit. Domestic and foreign reporters confirmed the authenticity and weighed the gold bricks.

The representative of the Black Hole Group announced in public:

"In February, our reward fund is 10 billion; in March, our reward fund will be increased by 10 billion to 20 billion; in April, if the person has not been rescued, our reward fund will be increased to 30 billion... in the future Increase the amount by 10 billion every month until it reaches 100 billion!”

"The Black Hole Group has no other ability but money! In this rescue operation, any rescuer who can rescue people can transfer money if they want, give cash if they want cash, and give you gold if they want gold, and transfer it to your designated account We will distribute it to the person you designate and transport it to the location you designate. If you need to file a tax return, we will pay the tax for you and let you get the full bounty. We will even allow your son and grandson to get it. One hundred years later, Relatives get...The payment method is up to you!”

"We are tired of technical arguments. We don't care about other people's evaluations. No matter where the technology comes from, it is not anyone's turn to judge. I say the technology is mine, it is mine, and I will not accept any accusation. In addition, if anyone wants to Hurt us, want to take a piece of flesh from us, I give you two words: No way! Stop this fantasy immediately!"

"Money is here, and anyone who has the ability can take it! The law cannot bring justice, but these money will bring justice. By the way, those staff responsible for monitoring the house arrest of Pu Weicai's family, if your family is in trouble and you are disappointed with the current situation , maybe you can consider stabbing your colleague in the back. On the one hand, this is for justice; on the other hand, this may change your life. Please have the courage to make the right decision.”

Wow~

The Black Hole Group's bounty announcement shocked the world and made countless people feel anxious.
