Chapter 104: Taking Charge as Host
"Senior Che, you came all the way here without even notifying us in advance. Our Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce should do its best to be a good host."

Huo Wuji's voice was gentle yet powerful, with a hint of majesty that could not be ignored.

Che Taian smiled slightly, his gaze lingering on Huo Wuji for a moment. Looking at the Mechanical Beast Chamber of Commerce, which now completely regarded itself as the host, Che Taian seemed to be thinking about something.

But he remained calm, looking around before sighing, "The Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce truly lives up to its reputation. They've grown to such a size in such a short period of time. It's truly admirable."

"I heard that the people of the East China Sea region are always thinking of the good things about the Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce. This is public opinion."

Huo Wuji waved his hand, completely unresponsive to Che Taian's barbs. He smiled faintly and said, "Senior, you're too kind. We're just adapting to the times and doing some insignificant things."

Che Taian smiled, a profound glint in his eyes. "Adapting to the times? President Huo is being too modest. Being able to seize opportunities in this era and develop the Mecha Chamber of Commerce to its current scale is not something that ordinary people can achieve."

Huo Wuji nodded slightly, his phoenix eyes radiating dignity, and he said simply and clearly, "If you work for the people, they will naturally support you."

Huo Wuji then extended his hand to signal Che Taian to sit down, saying gently and politely, "Please sit down, senior. You must be tired from the journey. I have asked someone to prepare some refreshments. We can chat slowly later."

Che Taian didn't refuse and calmly sat down on the sofa. Huo Wuji sat across from him, his expression calm, without the slightest hint of nervousness or awkwardness. The atmosphere between the two seemed peaceful, but undercurrents were surging.

"Senior, do you have any special plans for coming to Donghai City this time?"

Huo Wuji asked straight to the point, without any intention of beating around the bush.

Che Taian smiled, took a sip from his teacup, and then said, "I'm just curious about the changes in Donghai City. Although Mingdu is still the center of the Federation, Donghai City, as the coast of the East China Sea, has been the city with the fastest economic development in recent years, even surpassing Mingdu in some areas. I'm curious about what force is driving Donghai City's rise."

Huo Wuji smiled faintly, a glint of confidence in his eyes. "Senior, you're too kind. The development of Donghai City is inseparable from the efforts of every citizen, as well as the cooperation between the Mecha Chamber of Commerce and the Supreme Research Group. We are simply adapting to the needs of the times and providing products and services that can improve people's lives."

Che Taian nodded, a hint of inquiry in his eyes. "President Huo, I heard that the cooperation between the Mechanical Beast Chamber of Commerce and the Supreme Research Group is very close, and new products are released almost every month. This kind of R&D speed is difficult for even the top soul guide technology companies in Mingdu to achieve. I wonder how you guys do it?"

Huo Wuji smiled, a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "As long as everyone is united, our products are just copying others. Theoretically, if we want to make a soul guide like this, there are countless companies in the Sun-Moon Federation that can do it."

"But we don't know why they don't do it. Are they too tired?"

Che Taian, who was choked by Huo Wuji, lowered his head and drank his tea. How could he not hear Huo Wuji's counterattack?

The words were clearly stated, almost pointing fingers and saying, "The Federation has nurtured a tiger to harm itself. Now it has a monopoly on the soul guide technology industry. Even the Federation's own exclusive technology research and development team can't achieve unity, let alone those soul guide technology companies that operate independently."

Che Taian put down his teacup, a complex look flashing in his eyes. He had to admit that although Huo Wuji's words were sharp, they got to the heart of the matter.

The power struggles and conflicts of interest within the Federation have allowed those ancient forces to grow and infiltrate, and have long caused many forces that should have promoted scientific and technological progress to fall into internal friction.

The decaying ship of the Federation has long lost its former unity, its willingness to face setbacks head-on, its unity and striving. Yet, East Sea City seems to have found its way.
"President Huo, I have to admit that your words made me think deeply."

Che Taian said slowly, with a hint of emotion in his tone, "But don't blame me, an old man, for interrupting."

"Military-commercial alliance. The current chaotic situation is still okay, but if the Federation stabilizes..."

Che Taian stopped there.

With his decades of political vision, it is not difficult to see that whether it is hawks or doves, they are undoubtedly coveting the big piece of fat in the East China Sea region.

However, over the years, with the deep cultivation of local family forces and large forces like the Tang Sect, it has become difficult to make money in the East China Sea region. In addition, Mingdu, located to the west of Douluo Continent, is out of reach, so they gave up this city with a growing economy.

But what about now? Whether it's local forces or foreign forces, in this land of the East China Sea, they have all been squeezed out of the market by the Mechanical Beast Chamber of Commerce in a dimensionality reduction attack.

Soul guide products with better quality and relatively low price at the same price;
Continuously updating the soul guidance technology so that civilians can also use it;
High-endurance, high-quality soul guide energy source.
The arrival of the Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce completely shattered this market, along with the blood-sucking insects that had always occupied this market.

Except for the Tang Sect and the Spirit Pagoda, which did not evacuate, all the companies in the field of soul guide technology have long been deserted.

When there are no conflicts of interest, when there are no complicated influences of forces, will those bloodthirsty hyenas in Mingdu set their sights on this place?
As for the reason?

What justification is needed for the establishment of a federal investigation team?
As the Speaker of the Federal Parliament, Wei Zhiyi almost has the word "reshuffle" written on his face!
Since the secret intrigues have been exposed by the actual controller of the East China Sea Legion, it is better to carry out a big cleanup in public, so that the political achievements can be enriched while making the cake bigger again.

How smart is Wei Zhiyi?
The establishment of a federal investigation team has clearly told everyone that as long as they express their loyalty, everyone can have the cake and eat it too.

As for the Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce that acted recklessly without any prior notice, they were naturally one of the targets.

The reason why the federal investigation team has not yet arrived in the East China Sea is simply because they need to balance interests first and see clearly which forces are sensible and which are not.

The most delicious dish is naturally eaten when you are in a good mood.
As for the charges at that time
Isn’t that ignorant Shui Shuheng a good target?
So, instead of enjoying your retirement as an old man, you try to imitate the young people and start a wave of reform. Who else can we blame but you?
The Federation does not allow such an awesome person to exist!
Can Shui Shuheng guess it?
Maybe you can guess.

But this is meaningless. He knew from the beginning that once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back.

If you want to attack those corrupt forces, you must pay a price.

Shui Shuheng had already prepared himself mentally, and one could even say he had already put his own life and death aside. He knew full well that the road to reform was never smooth, especially when facing those entrenched interest groups. The slightest mistake could lead to destruction.
