After the President of the United States held a press conference, other Western countries followed suit, holding their own press conferences to shirk responsibility and shift blame.
Just like that, with numerous countries exerting pressure, as the focus of public opinion was about to shift to incomplete medical cabin experimental data and the use of their own citizens as guinea pigs, Dragon Country made its move.
Without any extraneous maneuvers, they opened with a bombshell.
Dragon Country directly presented the massive amount of data provided by Jing Mingqiu, laying it bare for all to see.
"Heh," the spokesperson for Dragon Country said to the assembled reporters, a cold sneer on their face.
"Our medical cabin was developed a long time ago. To investigate the stability of its medicinal effects and prevent sequelae, we conducted a ten-year tracking experiment. Only after confirming it was harmless to the human body did we launch it to the market for other patients to use."
"Certain Western countries are accustomed to treating their own citizens as guinea pigs, and they assume others do the same, attempting to slander other nations!"
"Dragon Country has always prioritized people and would never engage in acts worse than those of beasts. If you made a work error and accepted bribes, and now want us, Dragon Country, to take the fall, then the leaders of certain countries are simply dreaming!"
Upon hearing the spokesperson of Dragon Country, the reporters in the audience immediately erupted.
A reporter from the Beautiful Country's Pengpai News stood up first, their expression agitated, "You claim this medical cabin was developed ten years ago, meaning that ten years ago, this medical cabin and that miraculous medicine capable of regenerating severed limbs had already been researched. But, official reports from Dragon Country state that this medical cabin and miraculous medicine were jointly produced by Jing Mingqiu and Yi Wenliu, who had just started university. Ten years ago, they were only eight or nine years old. How could they lead such a massive project at such a young age?"
The reporter from Pengpai News posed a highly strategic question. If they insisted the medical cabin was developed ten years ago, it would imply that Jing Mingqiu and Yi Wenliu were not the inventors, and Dragon Country was lying. If they retracted their statement and said the medical cabin was developed by Jing Mingqiu and his peers, then the ten years of experimental data would be fake. It seemed the spokesperson for Dragon Country was in a difficult situation. However, having dared to speak of this matter, they were naturally prepared to deal with the reporters' challenges.
The spokesperson for Dragon Country let out a cold snort, "Age has never been a limitation in scientific research. Judging by seniority is the tragedy of scientific research."
"Wang Bo was skilled in literature at six, Li He could compose poetry at seven, and Yan Shu entered the imperial examination at eight. Gan Luo became prime minister at twelve. Geniuses cannot be judged by ordinary standards."
"Ten years ago, Professor Jing and Professor Yi were indeed a bit young, but precisely because they were young, their minds were not constrained, and they possessed boundless imagination."
"They directly helped us solve the biggest challenge in the research of the medical cabin. They were the greatest contributors to the entire research. What is wrong with saying they invented it?"
The reporter from Pengpai News, seeing their challenge so easily defused, was unwilling to give up and continued to press. "You said the data was sent, why did other countries all say they didn't receive it? Did you deliberately frame other countries..."
"Silence!"
He had only spoken half his sentence before he was forcefully interrupted by a stern shout from a leader of Dragon Country. "Whether it was received or not is not something decided by your empty words. This requires evidence."
"Out of over two hundred countries worldwide, less than twenty have publicly stated they did not receive it. The remaining more than 180 countries have said nothing! If you want to prove whether we sent it or not, simply go to the medical review agencies of those countries and check."
The countries that were well-known worldwide united in their efforts, and the results quickly emerged. Not only were complete experimental records found in the more than 180 countries that had remained silent, but even in the databases of several Western countries that had loudly proclaimed Dragon Country's medical cabin lacked follow-up experimental data, complete experimental records were found.
In an instant, public outrage surged, and immense public opinion pressure was placed upon the President of the United States, who had been the first to claim that Dragon Country's medical cabin data was incomplete and lacked post-usage long-term data.
"Didn't you say Dragon Country's medical cabin data was incomplete and lacked long-term usage data, which is why it wasn't allowed in? Why has Dragon Country already released ten years of tracking data!"
"As they said, you colluded with pharmaceutical companies to deliberately block Dragon Country's medical cabin from entering, wanting to sell expensive drugs to us."
"I regret voting for you! I want to impeach you! I want you, this muddle-headed president, to step down!"
Seeing his position threatened, the President of the United States, in a fit of rage, summoned personnel from the medical review agency, glared at them, and roared, "What's going on? Even if you were prepared to reject the materials sent by Dragon Country, you should have checked them carefully! How could you make such a basic mistake!"
The personnel from the review agency also looked wronged. "Mr. President, we truly checked carefully. The materials they sent us indeed did not contain long-term observation data!"
"You dare lie at a time like this? Get out!"
After expelling this person, the President summoned several others and received similar answers. He could only reluctantly admit that his subordinates were not lying and that Dragon Country had indeed only sent half the data.
Seeing the growing public outcry, the President of the United States could only stiffen his neck and declare, "We indeed did not receive it. They are afraid of the Beautiful Country's technological strength and fear we would discover their data fabrication, so they deliberately did not send us complete experimental data."
The spokesperson for Dragon Country let out a disdainful laugh, "Everyone knows that Country Y is just a dog raised by your Beautiful Country. What difference does it make if I send the complete data to them versus sending it directly to you?"
One sentence, a fatal blow! Public opinion was completely ignited. Faced with widespread condemnation, the President of the United States was rendered speechless.
Deliberately withholding complete experimental data from the Beautiful Country, Sakura Country, and a few other nations was initially just a passive move by Dragon Country. Regardless, Jing Mingqiu's medical cabin had already secured victory, so whether they fell for it or not was of little consequence. Unexpectedly, they mistook this for a loophole of Dragon Country and rushed in hand in hand. Country Y, despite having complete data, was so accustomed to acting as a dog that they didn't think twice and followed their American father.
While the President of the United States was in a state of utter disarray, the spokesperson for Dragon Country convened another press conference.
"The President of the United States, the Prime Minister of Sakura Country, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and the Chief of Country Y have seriously damaged our country's image and affected our international reputation."
"Unless they publicly apologize, we absolutely will not sell medical cabins to their respective countries!"
In the White House of the Beautiful Country, the President stood wearily by the window, looking at the dense protest crowds below, his eyes vacant.
"How did things escalate to this point? When did the great America have to import medical magnetic materials from other countries?"
"Mr. President," Smith Loun entered with documents, "you'd better pull yourself together. If you cannot resolve this crisis quickly, not only will you step down, but you will also be jointly prosecuted for corruption and dereliction of duty, facing at least twenty years in prison, and without any possibility of a pardon."
Hearing this, the President managed to regain some energy. "Judging by your words, you've already thought of a solution. Tell me, how can we get through this crisis?"
A sinister smile, stained with blood, appeared on Smith Loun's face.
"Mr. President, the interests involved this time are too great. As long as you are willing to help and divert Dragon Country's attention, they wouldn't mind using some special means to snatch the medical cabin from Dragon Country!"
