The country entrusted me to buy an aircraft carrier, Hou Liangping, do you dare to investigate?

Similar reactions have been observed in corporate boards and R&D departments around the world.

Huang Feipeng's bold declaration was seen as a desperate gesture, a dangerous combination of arrogance and ignorance.

They believed that his company would soon collapse without the support of American technology, serving as a cautionary tale of the foolishness of challenging the established order.

In an instant, the world's attention was focused on Daxia and on Huang Feipeng. Some marveled at his courage and determination, some questioned his strength and confidence, and others waited to see him make a fool of himself.

Huang Feipeng, facing external doubts and ridicule, simply smiled and said, "The game has only just begun."

The American government clearly hadn't expected Huang Feipeng's counterattack to be so swift and fierce. They had originally thought that, with their dominant position in the technological field and their control over the global economy, they could easily drive Great Xia into a corner.

However, they underestimated the indomitable spirit and resistance of the people of Daxia, and even more so, they underestimated Huang Feipeng's determination and strength.

The US government's financial blockade did indeed have a certain impact on the Great Xia economy, but it also stimulated the crisis awareness and innovation capabilities of Great Xia enterprises.

Companies that originally relied on American technology began to seek alternatives and increase their efforts in independent research and development. Some previously unknown technology companies also rose rapidly during this crisis, filling market gaps.

Huang Feipeng, on the other hand, seized this opportunity to make sweeping industrial layouts, integrate resources, and acquire those high-quality companies that had been sanctioned, thus rapidly expanding his own strength.

Huang Feipeng knew full well that the US sanctions were just the first step; they would take even more drastic measures to suppress Daxia Technology's development. He had to seize the initiative, turn the tables, and win this silent technological war!

His first focus was on the chip manufacturing sector. Chips, as the cornerstone of modern technology, have always been a weakness of Great Xia, which has long relied on imports. The United States has seized upon this weakness, attempting to strangle Great Xia's technology by cutting off its chip supply.

Huang Feipeng acted decisively, acquiring several leading domestic chip design companies and hiring a large number of outstanding overseas talents to build a powerful chip R&D team. He also invested heavily in importing the world's most advanced lithography machines and other equipment, establishing a complete chip production line in China.

To break the United States' monopoly on chip architecture, Huang Feipeng led his team to work day and night to overcome technical difficulties, and finally successfully developed the "Kirin" series of chips with completely independent intellectual property rights. This chip not only has superior performance but also lower cost, and it was enthusiastically sought after by domestic and foreign manufacturers as soon as it was launched, breaking the United States' technological blockade.

In addition to chips, Huang Feipeng has also extended his reach to key areas such as operating systems, databases, and cloud computing, rapidly building a vast technology ecosystem through investment, acquisitions, and collaborations.

He deeply understood that talent was the key to technological innovation, so he launched the "Spark Program" nationwide to select and cultivate outstanding scientific and technological talents. He invested heavily in establishing multiple research bases and laboratories, providing researchers with a first-class research environment and generous benefits, attracting a large number of overseas scholars to return to China to serve the country.

Huang Feipeng also actively promotes the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, turning laboratory technologies into marketable products. He established a dedicated investment fund to support promising technology startups and help them bring their innovative ideas to fruition.

Under his leadership, Daxia Technology has unleashed unprecedented vitality and creativity, with a constant stream of new technologies and products emerging. Daxia is moving from a "manufacturing powerhouse" to a "technology powerhouse".

"Sun Bao, what's going on in America?" Huang Feipeng asked calmly, sitting at his large desk and flipping through the latest financial report.

“Brother Peng, the US government is working with its allies to impose a financial blockade on us, freezing our overseas assets and restricting our access to international financial markets for financing.” Sun Bao’s voice came from the other end of the phone, tinged with a hint of seriousness. “But don’t worry, I have made preparations in advance. Their methods will not cause us any real harm.”

“Very well,” Huang Feipeng smirked, “Since they want to play, then we’ll play along. Issue my orders: fully activate Plan B…”

His voice was deep and powerful, carrying a strong aura that made Sun Bao on the other end of the phone tremble. He knew that a financial war without gunfire was about to begin.

“Brother Peng, the US is getting increasingly aggressive. This time, they’ve joined forces with more than a dozen allies to prepare for a new round of financial sanctions against us.” Sun Bao’s voice came from the other end of the phone, his tone heavy. “This time they’ve learned their lesson and are targeting us more specifically, mainly our newly established payment system.”

Huang Feipeng chuckled lightly, his eyes showing no sign of panic, as if everything was within his expectations. "Hmph, a bunch of clowns, thinking they can stop us like this? They should take a good look at themselves. What era are we living in? Still playing this hegemonic game, aren't they afraid of hurting their backs?"

He flicked the embers of his cigar, the crimson sparks flickering in the darkness, illuminating his sharply defined face and adding to its cold, stern look. "Sun Bao, send the word: call an emergency meeting. All five tigers of the capital must be accounted for. I want those foreign devils to know they're still too green to play financial warfare with us!"

An hour later, the most luxurious private club in the capital, which was usually bustling with customers, was now shrouded in a somber atmosphere.

"Damn it, these foreign devils, do they really think we're pushovers? Back when I fought in the Korean War, they didn't get any advantage either, and now they want to pull this trick? They don't even know their own limitations!" Wang Hu slammed his fist on the mahogany table, making the teacups on it tremble. His rugged face was full of anger.

Wang Hu was the most impulsive of the Five Tigers of the Capital, and also the most loyal to Huang Feipeng. Born into a military family, he had a fiery temper and couldn't tolerate any wrongdoing. The actions of the United States this time had thoroughly enraged him.

"Brother Wang, don't get agitated. Brother Peng called us here, he must already have a plan," Li Ying said calmly, adjusting his black-rimmed glasses.

Compared to Wang Hu's impulsiveness, Li Ying appeared much more composed. He was usually taciturn but meticulous, one of Huang Feipeng's strategists, especially skilled in cybersecurity and intelligence gathering. He was the first to detect and report the recent financial attack by the United States.
