But in reality.

The "arrangement" is completely under the control of the Eagle.

Take 2004 for example.

The Czech authorities once approved the Czech arms export company to sell 10 "Vera" radar systems to the Rabbit, at a total value of 55.7 million US dollars, but under the pressure from across the sea, they eventually canceled the contract.

In 2006.

Huaxia signed a cooperation agreement with Italy's Alenia Space Company for the launch of an Italian satellite.

But due to interference from across the sea, the Italian side, disregarding economic and reputation losses, ultimately canceled the cooperation agreement.

And now again.

Currently, all of the world's top 15 semiconductor equipment suppliers are restricted by the Wassenaar Agreement, so we can't buy the most advanced chip manufacturing equipment.

Therefore, domestic companies can only cooperate with the Belgian Microelectronics Research Center... namely IMEC, to save the nation in a roundabout way:

IMEC first buys equipment from ASML Applied Materials, and after five years, once it meets the Wassenaar Agreement requirements, it then sells it to domestic enterprises.

In five years, for semiconductors, the market would have updated three times over.

This is the fundamental reason for our country's lag in chips—you simply can't buy new equipment.

As for the Wassenaar Agreement, above that, it's one-on-one sanctions.

For instance, as everyone knows, Huawei is such a case, subjected to a comprehensive technology blockade.

Now that the FOERDA-T632 has entered the embargo list, it's reasonable for Nutrien to refuse to sell.

However, even after understanding Nutrien's reasons for refusal, Tian Liangwei's brows still didn't relax, and there was still some doubt in his heart:

"Strange, why did the FOERDA-T632 enter the Wassenaar Agreement so quickly?"

"Our product has just finished being released, is it necessary to make such a big fuss?"

"A big fuss?"

Gu Qunqing sighed with a bitter smile and explained:

"Academician Tian, this is the biggest mistake we collectively made—we overlooked the special nature of 'taking down a mantis'."

Tian Liangwei couldn't help but have a question mark appear above his head:

"Special nature?"

Gu Qunqing slowly nodded and remarked:

"Our product can be considered the only one in the field of biochemical engineering since the founding of the country that holds the potential for monopoly, or in a more sci-fi term, dimensional reduction strike."

"And monopoly represents discourse power, do you think those people might give us such growth space?"

After speaking, he paused, looking at the thoughtful Tian Liangwei, and continued to add:

"The first time we procured equipment was just over ten days ago, at that time, those opponents still did not understand our production process and were not aware of what company we would cooperate with,

"They couldn't possibly put all chemical companies on the embargo list, only then could we smoothly procure three FOERDA-T632 pieces of equipment."

"But as soon as our acquisition contract was signed, and the papers and patents were simultaneously released, those people naturally knew our cooperating partner was Nutrien."

Then he pointed to the document and continued:

"The current Secretary-General of the Vienna Contact Point of the Wassenaar Agreement is Ikebashi Mitsuo, a Neon person, pushing equipment onto the list is not difficult."

"They were prepared for the embargo from the very beginning, so it's unrelated to the time of product release, they had long set their sights on us."

"If hacking won't work, then use real-world means to limit our development."

Tian Liangwei looked at the document in front of him, and fell silent.

Indeed.

Just as Gu Qunqing said.

Huadun Biotech's opponents didn't start targeting them only after the product was released.

In fact, ever since the Ke Da disinfection live broadcast... no, even since the accident in Building 14, those opponents had already set their sights on Huadun Biotech.

If not for Chang Licheng's quick wit at the time, Wang Zhaomin might have already tricked away the samples.

Foreign enemies, foreign enemies.

The word "enemy" explains it all—it's not fair competition, but a battlefield!

Thinking of this.

Xu Yun, who was nearby, also sighed lightly.

In fact.

Huadun Biotech had made very thorough preparations in all aspects, whether in public opinion, public relations, or network security, there were almost no loopholes.

But who could have thought that the other side would fight without virtue, directly and shamelessly causing trouble in terms of equipment?

This is like two restaurants competing, where a restaurant with better cooking prepares for the other side to come quarrel at their door, spread rumors among neighbors, or even spill black dog blood outside at night. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

But as a result, the other side straight up uses connections to stop the vegetable farmers from delivering vegetables to you, who could have thought?

This goes beyond the scope of commercial competition or "blackening", it is purely shameless.

And on the other hand.

The direct reason for their actions, of course, is not wanting Huadun Biotech to seize the market and form a monopoly.

But the deeper reason—such as why the Wassenaar Agreement can take effect, is because they do not want to see any Huaxia enterprise rise.

They are like overseers standing by a deep pit.

Every time a hand struggles up from the bottom of the pit, they grin and stretch out their foot to trample it heavily.

Until the hand can support no more and completely falls, and the climber beneath falls back into the pit, only then do they spit hard towards the pit bottom and resume patrolling their territory.

There is a saying that goes well.

For the homeland, there are only two countries in the world—Huaxia and foreign countries.

There is some truth to this.

Thinking of this.

Tian Liangwei couldn't help but look up at Xu Yun and asked:

"Xiaoxu, what are your plans next?"

Xu Yun was silent for a moment, and his expression looked somewhat serious:

"Teacher, first of all, we must affirm one point, the situation with Nutrien is clearly not an isolated case."
