As the entire information gradually unfolded, the Academicians and experts either frowned, pondered, or looked enlightened. Everyone listened to Ji Yuan's explanation while quickly jotting down notes and performing calculations on the paper in front of them. Simple and complex formulas emerged from their pens, which then expanded into various recipes, each paired with several processes that were almost excessively precise.
"Zhang Lin, come over and take a look!"
In the small conference room, the voices of the Academicians and senior experts echoed as they called out to one another. This group of elderly individuals, averaging nearly seventy years old, burst forth with an extraordinary vitality once they immersed themselves in their work.
"The hero's blade is still sharp!" Ji Yuan instinctively thought of this phrase. He listened to the enthusiastic discussions around him, chuckling softly as he calculated the data at hand.
Since the news about America's new energy broke out, the overall public anxiety rapidly escalated. Even though relevant departments stepped in to stabilize the situation, a sense of tension was still brewing.
Among them, the greatest pressure fell on the scientific community of the Eastern superpower. With a population of 1.4 billion placing their hopes and expectations on them, there was a strong desire for them to develop a super energy source that belonged to their nation, enabling it to stand shoulder to shoulder with America!
They felt anxious yet guilty! As some of the most renowned researchers in the country, they enjoyed immense public resources and national trust but felt powerless regarding the new energy project, lacking both confidence and capability.
"Tell the cafeteria to send over some late-night snacks," Ji Yuan instructed as he dismissed a guard. He then turned to Ling Ziqian and said, "Make sure to coordinate with the relevant departments closely and keep an eye on any updates regarding the remaining information. If there’s any news, send it over immediately."
As the Eastern power was intensively developing new energy projects, the major actions from America arrived as expected. When Ji Yuan and the team of experts saw the news on the screen, it felt like a bucket of cold water had been thrown over them, leaving their faces pale with shock.
"At 6 AM Eastern Time on October 1, America officially announced the production launch of Super Gas Energy N97 and declared that by the end of the year, no fewer than 20,000 gas stations would be established."
"At the same time, America announced that it would implement energy supply to 64 allied countries, promoting the internationalization of new energy and driving the leapfrog development of Super Energy."
"According to the latest reports, global oil prices have plummeted, and oil company stocks have fallen below their issue price, marking the largest single-day drop in 50 years."
"Additionally, reports indicate that three oil-producing countries in the Central Region are simultaneously experiencing rebellion. Currently, Y Country's Rebels have taken over government buildings, while the other two countries are still engaged in gunfire. It is expected that there will be significant difficulties in oil supply over the next one to two years..."
Until the television screen went dark, everyone present remained pale-faced and speechless.
"America chose this moment to disclose such news; it's nothing short of a blatant provocation!"
"Ever since that madman took office in the White House, America's actions have become increasingly reckless!"
"America's tactics are truly vicious; they are inciting rebellion in three oil-producing countries and nearly paralyzing all Petroleum Countries around the world..."
"Those three oil-producing nations have long been infiltrated; such an event was to be expected."
"In this urgent moment, we should focus more on ourselves; our country is about to face enormous challenges."
America's implementation of new energy supply to 64 allied countries clearly includes most developed nations with a certain level of strength to develop China. Most likely, America has already reached agreements with these countries; otherwise, other nations would not stand by while America incited rebellion in the three countries of the Central Region.
Even a fool can see that there is likely a significant exchange of interests involved! These countries might even completely align with America to pressure the Eastern powers, or at the very least, they will turn a blind eye and choose silence.
At this moment, everyone in the conference room understood why Arthur Jin was decisively removed by America. It was clear that America had made up its mind to destroy the oil energy sector, forcing hostile nations into a predicament of energy scarcity, and relying on new energy hegemony to take over the world, reshaping an international order more favorable to America, becoming the true controller of order.
"Do they not resist, choosing to feed the eagle while watching their power diminish?"
"Today they give up five cities, tomorrow ten cities; what future is left?"
"Don't count on them! Although they wear the label of developed countries, they have long been tamed by America. While they might engage in small actions to hinder America, expecting them to stand with us is wishful thinking!"
"Heaven helps those who help themselves; we should hurry back and accelerate our research progress. Leave the rest to the country!"
