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

[The Messenger vaccine is priced as follows: $500 per dose in the domestic market, $800 per dose in allied markets, and $1500 per dose in other countries.]

[Announcement: The United States will provide the strictest patent protection for the production technology of the "Messenger" vaccine. Any unauthorized imitation will be subject to the most severe sanctions!]

Everyone looked at Gu Yun, wondering how he would handle the situation.

They thought that China would also set a high price for its vaccine, or at least engage in a commercial negotiation with the United States.

I have never seen such a shameless person! Thinking about making money at a time like this? This is a disaster for humanity!

[A single injection costs $500, which amounts to $1,500 for a family of three. In Africa, that's several years' income for some people! This is blatant robbery!]

Is this what Western values ​​are? Is this what they call civilization? I think it's a cannibalistic civilization!

[Brother Gu, stop drinking your tea! Hurry up and make a move! I can't stand seeing these robbers so arrogant!]

[Don't rush, upstairs. Look at Gu Ge's expression, doesn't it look like he's watching a bunch of monkeys? I think he's about to unleash something big.]

Gu Yun was indeed watching a monkey show.

He found Scott's arrogant demeanor on stage amusing.

Have these people become so rigid from being in a hegemonic position for so long? Do they really think they can strangle the world with a vaccine?

He slowly put down his teacup, which tapped softly on the table. The sound wasn't loud, but it was remarkably clear in the noisy studio.

Gu Yun stood up.

He didn't look at Scott, but instead looked directly at the control panel in front of him.

On that surface, the progress bar representing the advancement of China's vaccine development is currently gleaming with a dazzling golden light.

The "Nuwa" project is 100% complete.

"Mr. Scott," Gu Yun began, her tone as casual as if she were chatting about everyday matters.

"You've got a pretty good plan; I can hear it all across the Pacific. But haven't you forgotten something?"

Scott whirled around, staring at him warily: "What is it? Gu Yun, don't try to use moral blackmail! This is business!"

"Business?" Gu Yun laughed, then shook his head. "No, this isn't business. In our culture, this is called 'profiteering from someone's misfortune.'"

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the entire room.

"Scott just said that there is no innovation without profit. That sounds reasonable, but when it comes to life and death, it's just nonsense."

"We Chinese believe in the saying: 'The rise and fall of the nation is the responsibility of every citizen.' Moreover, viruses know no borders."

As long as there is even one country in the world still experiencing a pandemic, then all of humanity is not safe.

Do you want to make a fortune off vaccines? Do you want to establish a vaccine monopoly?

Gu Yun's finger hovered over a red button on the control panel.

"Then I'll show you what it means to be a responsible major power."

The next second, he pressed the button hard.

"I hereby declare!"

Gu Yun's voice instantly filled the entire studio and was also broadcast worldwide via live stream.

"China's independently developed 'Nuwa' vaccine will be a global public good!"

"What we're doing isn't selling, it's giving away!"

"We will provide finished vaccines to all developing countries free of charge! For countries with production capacity, we will disclose all technical parameters and production processes free of charge to help you establish your own production lines!"

"Our goal is singular: to ensure that everyone in every corner of the world, regardless of wealth or poverty, can afford vaccines and survive!"

As Gu Yun finished speaking, the golden dots on the big screen, which had previously only illuminated the map of China, suddenly exploded!

Those lines represent the routes for vaccine transportation, departing from various airports across China, resembling a giant golden spider web that instantly covers Africa, South America, Southeast Asia, Central Asia…

The system notification sounds were ringing out incessantly:

[Warning! Warning! Chinese players are providing massive, unpaid aid!]

[Non-market behavior detected! This behavior will lead to a surge in the country's short-term fiscal deficit!]

[System in progress...]

[Judgment Result: This action greatly improved the global survival rate! China's international reputation +10000! Global goodwill +10000!]

In the studio, a deathly silence lasted for three seconds.

Then, a thunderous cheer erupted!

"Oh my god! It's free! It really is free!"

"Completely publicizing the technology? How is that possible! That's the result of hundreds of billions of dollars in research and development!"

"Gu Yun! Are you an angel sent by God? No, you are our brother!"

Adkunle was so excited that he jumped onto a chair, waving his fists, tears and snot streaming down his face.

He originally thought that his country would be destroyed in this simulation, but unexpectedly, he survived!

On the other side, Scott's face instantly turned deathly pale.

He looked at his control panel, where the figure that had been projected to generate trillions of dollars in profit had instantly dropped to zero.

Nobody buys his vaccine anymore.

Why would anyone be so stupid as to buy your $500-a-shot injection when there are better free options available?

"You...you're insane!" Scott pointed at Gu Yun, his fingers trembling. "You're breaking market rules! You're dumping!"

Gu Yun looked at the furious Scott and a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Scott, you don't seem to understand the situation. This is a doomsday scenario, a matter of life and death for all humanity."

"You're talking to Death about market rules? You're talking to a virus about intellectual property rights?"

"Furthermore..." Gu Yun took a step forward, his aura imposing, "Who told you that rescuing people requires following those bandit rules you set?"

"On this stage, in this simulation system, and even in the real world of the future."

"If your rules hinder human survival, then I will—"

"Smash it!"
