My whole family is involved in diplomacy, so you dare to flex your muscles?

Chapter 58 Gu Yun: Stop fighting, or I'll take them all?

There was a brief silence in the studio when those five words were uttered.

Yamamoto and Kim Min-ho's expressions froze, like two dogs fighting over a bone when suddenly a tiger walks by and says that the bone is actually mine.

That sense of absurdity, that anger at being mocked, instantly dispelled the hostility between them, and instead focused all their attention on Gu Yun.

"Baka! What nonsense are you spouting?!" Yamamoto was so angry that his beard was trembling.

"Damn it! This is robber logic! This is great power chauvinism!" Kim Min-ho exclaimed, jumping up and down in frustration.

Even Scott, who was standing next to him, was dumbfounded.

He'd seen hooligans before, but never one this hooligans.

This isn't just "since ancient times," it's practically digging up people's ancestral graves!

"Hey, hey, don't get excited." Gu Yun waved his hand, looking innocent. "I'm just giving you guys a solution."

Since you both believe you are right and neither is willing to concede to the other, wouldn't it be fair to find a highly respected and long-established "third party" to manage the property?

"Besides," Gu Yun pointed to the map, "look at this location, it's quite close to us."

Our fishermen often go there to fish, so according to the 'established history,' we have a say, right?

"You...you're using sophistry!" Yamamoto pointed at Gu Yun. "The tributary system is outdated, hundreds of years old! Modern international law emphasizes sovereign equality!"

"Oh, now you're talking about international law?" Gu Yun sneered, his face instantly turning cold. "Why didn't you talk about international law when you were discussing issues with me earlier?"

Why not talk about sovereignty and integrity? Didn't you guys like to use "historical issues" as an excuse back then?

"What? Did you feel pain when the boomerang pierced your own skin?"

Gu Yun's shout immediately suppressed the momentum of the two men.

"I just want to tell you all," Gu Yun said, looking around the room, "Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you."

You spend all day scrutinizing our territorial issues with a magnifying glass, stirring up trouble. Now that it's your turn, why can't you stand it?

"Your so-called 'iron triangle' is a joke to me."

"One wants to seize the island, one wants to defend it, and another is taking sides, trying to have it both ways."

Gu Yun walked up to Scott and patted him on the shoulder.

"Scott, this team is hard to lead. Morale is low."

Scott slapped Gu Yun's hand away, his face turning ashen.

He knew that in today's game, the "Alliance" card was completely useless.

Europe harbors ulterior motives regarding the surveillance of nuclear submarines, while tensions are running high in East Asia over the Dokdo/Takeshima issue.

This isn't a siege against Gu Yun; it's clearly Gu Yun making a fool of them!

In the live stream room in China, the barrage of comments had turned into a sea of ​​joy.

[Hahaha! They're all mine! Gu Ge's imagination is amazing! Even though it's a joke, it's really satisfying to hear!]

[This is fighting fire with fire! You guys like to muddy the waters, right? Well, I'll stir things up too, and we'll see who can't take it first.]

[The expressions on Yamamoto and Kim Min-ho's faces just now looked like they'd swallowed two pounds of flies.]

Scott: This is so tough. I'm leading a bunch of terrible teammates, and I have to face a godlike opponent.

[That's it! The Lighthouse Kimchi Cherry Blossom Alliance has completely fractured. Gu Yun's divisive tactic is comparable to Su Qin and Zhang Yi's strategy back in the day!]

Just then, Smith, the Australian representative who hadn't said much, suddenly stood up.

This guy is a big guy, looks quite honest, but there's a shrewdness in his eyes.

He saw this as an opportunity. Everyone was arguing about it, and if he could stand up and firmly support the United States, wouldn't he be able to achieve something great?

Maybe we can sell more iron ore to the United States.

"Gu Yun!" Smith roared, "Don't try to change the subject! We, the Five Eyes Alliance, are united!"

We, the Australian nation, will always stand with the United States! We share the same values!

His shout was originally intended to express his loyalty.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Pierre, who was still angry, turned his head coldly and stared intently at him.

"Oh? Australia?" Pierre's voice was icy. "Mr. Smith, how dare you mention unity?"

When you broke our submarine contract, where were your values? Where was your sense of contractual obligation?

Smith was taken aback, not expecting the fire to spread to him.

"That...that's for national security! We need nuclear submarines!" Smith argued.

"A nuclear submarine?" Gu Yun chuckled beside him.

He was just looking for an excuse to deal with Australia, and since they'd delivered themselves right to his doorstep, he wouldn't hold back.

"Mr. Smith, speaking of nuclear submarines," Gu Yun interjected slowly, "I heard that although you paid the penalty for breach of contract and gave the United States a large deposit, but..."

Gu Yun deliberately dragged out the sound.

"Your first nuclear submarine won't be delivered until after 2040, right?"

"And it's secondhand?"

"I spent double the money, offended an old friend, and ended up buying a futures contract that would be issued twenty years from now, which was actually a second-hand item that the other party had discarded."

Gu Yun gave a thumbs up.

"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! This 'sucker' spirit truly reflects your selfless love for the beacon of the world."

"If I were Scott, I'd also like an ally like you. You're naive, rich, and obedient."

Smith's face instantly turned a deep liver color, even redder than Pierre's had been.

He could tolerate being called "treacherous," after all, it was for the sake of profit.

But being called "foolish and rich" or "a sucker" hits the nail on the head for Australians.

Ever since the AUKUS agreement was signed, there has been a lot of unease within Australia.

Hundreds of billions have been poured in, but there's been no result; we have to wait another twenty years.

Who knows what the world will be like in twenty years? It's hard to say whether nuclear submarines will still be advanced by then.

"You...you're talking nonsense! That's the latest Virginia-class! It's the most advanced technology transfer!" Smith roared.

"Technology transfer?" Gu Yun scoffed. "Smith, you're an adult, don't be so naive, okay?"

The US, the "beacon of democracy," won't even fully open up decent civilian nuclear technology. Would they really transfer their core military nuclear power technology to you? They'll just give you a few black boxes and tell you, "Don't touch them, or the warranty will be void."

"Besides, you don't even have a decent nuclear industry base. What can you do with the technology? Just use it as decoration?"

Gu Yun turned to look at Pierre with a sympathetic expression.

"Pierre, look, this is what happens when you abandon us and choose the beacon of the world."

Not only did they lose credibility, they also became a laughing stock worldwide.

I think you should feel fortunate that you didn't continue cooperating with such a brainless country, otherwise who knows what other trouble they might cause in the future.

Pierre scoffed, his eyes filled with contempt as he looked at Smith: "Indeed. Cooperating with a country that lacks strategic vision is a disgrace to France."

This decisive blow cemented Smith's place on the pillar of shame.

Smith was trembling with anger and turned to Scott, hoping his older brother would put in a good word for him.

But Scott just coughed awkwardly twice and pretended to look at the ceiling.

"Look, your older brother's silent again." Gu Yun shrugged. "Smith, that's reality. In the face of profit, so-called brotherhood is more fragile than plastic."

The atmosphere in the studio had completely changed.

"That's enough!"

At that moment, Hans, the German representative who had been silent all along, finally stood up.

"Gu Yun, stop trying to sow discord here." Hans pushed up his glasses, his tone serious. "Whatever our internal disagreements are, that's our own business."

But when facing global challenges, such as economic, energy, and climate issues, we in the Western world remain our closest partners!

"We have a common market and a common energy security system!"

Hans tried to steer the conversation back to the broader theme of "cooperation" in an attempt to save face.

Gu Yun looked at Hans, his eyes narrowing slightly.
