From the tone of the speech, it was obvious that the Beautiful Country had not obtained concrete evidence.

Otherwise, given the nature of the Beautiful Country, it would have already handed over the evidence to the media for everyone to scrutinize under a magnifying glass, and then publicized it so that it became universally known around the world.

Judith didn’t care about losing face; she continued, “In order to better cope with the deteriorating situation in Southeast Asia and to maintain the security of our allies in the region, the CIA will consult with several countries in the Southeast and rent local land to establish necessary military facilities, set up five regional analysis groups, a transnational think tank, and three intelligence action bureaus to combat extremist organizations suspected of planning terrorist attacks in Southeast Asia.”

This news instantly provoked a commotion among the audience.

Everyone knows that the reputation of the CIA is not merely bad—if so many permanent bases are established in the East Asia region.

It could be that before extremist organizations are dealt with, Southeast Asian countries will be stirred into chaos by their actions, causing widespread harm.

“You, the CIA, are an external intelligence agency; openly setting up intelligence offices is an act that disrespects the sovereignty of other nations,”

a foreign journalist expressed angrily, directly voicing their dissatisfaction.

Catching a glance at the reporter’s Apple phone, Judith sneered inwardly. Not publicizing doesn’t mean we don’t collect intelligence; do you think the leak scandals came from nowhere? The phone you are using right now might very well have an eavesdropping backdoor installed.

Of course, Judith switched to a different set of rhetoric out loud, speaking in a grave tone, “The actions of the CIA are not for personal gain; our CIA is a global leader in intelligence gathering, and establishing these permanent bases is also for better intelligence cooperation with other countries, strengthening defenses against those extremist and radical groups.”

The destruction of the Emigalowa Base set off alarm bells for high-ranking officials like Judith in the CIA.

Although it is still unknown whether the attack was truly the doing of the Jieke Group, it does not seem plausible that if the enemy possessed that kind of Super Soldiers, they would be able to capture the base without any prior wind or information leaking out.

Regardless, the CIA first assumed the adversary had this capability, so they announced the intelligence operations to mix in with other national government agencies.

With real-time satellite monitoring up in the skies, they weren’t afraid of a recurrence of the Emigalowa Base incident.

At this moment, the White House spokesperson also stepped forward, took up the microphone, and added, “Today, we have formally signed a security agreement with the Asia-Pacific Eight Nation Alliance with Temasek, Luzon, Siam, Jawa, Johor, Chan Country, and Japan, informally known as the Eight Nation Group.

The agreement stipulates mutual support among the nations, providing long-term military and fiscal aid to developing countries, and deepening cooperation in the political, financial, humanitarian, and reform sectors to protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of each member of the group, jointly combat extremist organizations, and safeguard international waterways.”

At the moment, we have already seen initial results. Regarding Chan Country, the Beautiful Country and the other six nations will increase a substantial amount of aid to Chan Country, which includes providing modern military equipment for land, air, and naval forces, assisting with the development of industrial bases, the education and training of military personnel, intelligence exchange, cyber defense, and other safety measures.”

The moment the spokesperson for the White House finished speaking, the scene erupted into chaos, with people immediately raising their hands to ask questions.

“Please speak,”

the White House spokesperson pointed out, and a reporter immediately stood up.

“I would like to ask if this move is aimed at the Jieke Group? Isn’t this an overreaction?”

the reporter asked, suggesting that the Beautiful Country’s huge mobilization to form an Eight Nation Group seemed to be a prelude to troublemaking.

Especially for Chan Country, the Beautiful Country scarcely gave it a second glance in the past, devoid of resources like oil and not being a particular geopolitical hotspot, coupled with the country’s weak economy and impoverished population, the Beautiful Country had always turned a blind eye.

The ship of freedom and democracy only sails to places that benefit the Beautiful Country.

After much thought, it seemed that only the Jieke Group was significant enough to gain the attention of the Beautiful Country, as this company was making too much profit.

“We are only maintaining the stability and security of the East Asia region, but Jieke Group has indeed committed a series of serious violations of commercial law recently.

Therefore, our courts will hold a public trial for the Jieke Group in the coming days. If the party wishes to prove its innocence, then please attend the court to present and explain their case; otherwise, we will make a decision based on the verdict of the court and impose even stricter sanctions,”

the White House spokesperson declared, making a requirement for the personnel of the Jieke Group to appear in court.

Subsequent questions from other journalists were all about the Eight Nation Group.

After about fifteen minutes, the news conference was coming to an end, but the public opinion storm had just begun to stir.

Once the news of the conference spread, netizens were as thrilled as a provoked Run Tu, gossiping eagerly among themselves.

‘Ha ha, a military base of the Beautiful Country has actually been slaughtered; this is indeed a cause for celebration, time to set off a string of firecrackers.’

‘I heard that over a thousand people died; what kind of extremist organization was it that could leave the Beautiful Country Soldiers so disheveled and defeated.’

‘Well, didn’t they say it was the extremist organizations supported by the Jieke Group, at least it was one of the masterminds behind the scenes.’

‘You believe what the Beautiful Country says? It’s probably just an excuse to suppress and take over the Jieke Group. The Beautiful Country has targeted the Jieke Group more than once or twice before.’

‘It doesn’t matter who did it, I just want to say it was beautifully done.’

‘Isn’t Jieke Group just a company selling shampoo? They’ve been painted as an armed warlord, it must be another detergent incident of framing and entrapment, I have the script all ready. First, go to the United Nations to file a complaint, then initiate sanctions legislation, followed by the use of Beautiful Country’s exclusive long-arm jurisdiction to sue Jieke Group for monopoly, smuggling, endangering national security and such, the Department of Justice then pins the crime on them with the overseas anti-corruption act, and finally, have pharmaceutical giants like Asder Pharmaceutical, Qianghui Pharmaceutical, Nuori Pharmaceutical, etc., step in to buy out and break up Jieke Group. That’s exactly how Alstom Company was taken down.’

‘Warning, senior executives of Jieke Group better not come to Beautiful Country for any hearings or court trials, watch out or they’ll detain you here.’

‘Are those above all crazy? Would my Great America falsely accuse a little pharmaceutical company? Jieke Group is definitely a disguised extreme militant organization, Beautiful Country’s sanctions are well-placed, everyone should stop buying Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid from now on, it’s providing funds to an extreme militant organization!’

‘Not buying it is impossible, I’ve become completely dependent on this magical hair growth liquid.’

‘I don’t believe that Beautiful Country would rally so many countries just to deal with one company, there must be more to the story.’

‘Local people will tell you that Beautiful Country isn’t wrong, I’m from Chan Country and Jieke Group started in the Mande Region and now has swallowed up the whole East Qin State. They are indeed a warlord, and a mighty one with strong military power, their strength is top-notch in Chan Country.’

‘How could even the most formidable warlord wipe out a military base with over a thousand personnel? How did they move their forces and weapons to Siam?’

‘Anyway, I support Beautiful Country in sanctioning Jieke Group, Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid is so expensive, if it were managed by conscientious companies in Beautiful Country, the prices would definitely come down.’

People on the internet argued back and forth, some supporting Jieke Group, others supporting Beautiful Country.

More than that, neither side helps, they just enjoy a good show and hope for a more intense collision between Jieke Group and the Eight Nation Alliance.

……

In Manchester, Siam.

Inside the presidential suite of the city’s most high-end hotel, Su Jie was also watching the latest news broadcast about the Emigalowa Base incident.

Tour guide Miss Nong Lan was sitting by his side, asking Su Jie for his opinion on tomorrow’s travel itinerary.

“Mr. Su, there have been police everywhere in the city lately, all because of this news. But I think they had it coming. Those soldiers from Beautiful Country always like to bully others, it’s time they tasted some hardship.”

Nong Lan spoke up curiously, making small talk with Su Jie.

She had no idea that the man sitting beside her was the true mastermind behind the attack that killed thousands.

Su Jie looked away from the TV and chuckled, “Oh, you girls care about these things too?”@@novelbin@@

“My dad has been ranting about it to me. He’s a loyal user of Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid and says he wouldn’t want Jieke Group to be sanctioned and fall because then there wouldn’t be such good products available anymore. It would be best if Jieke Group could send someone to Beautiful Country to explain things, attend hearings and court trials, everything would be fine once they clear things up.”

Nong Lan laughed a couple of times, caring more about celebrities, clothes, and makeup. If it weren’t for her father’s constant talk, she wouldn’t have any clue about it at all; she would just skip over the news.

“Do you think Beautiful Country will give a fair judgment?”

Su Jie raised an eyebrow, asking with a hint of amusement.

After thinking it over carefully, Nong Lan hesitated and said, “They should, after all, they are the leading country in the world, and Western people hold contract spirit in high regard, right? The law has to be based on evidence and facts, they can’t just do whatever they want.”

“The law? The very first political lesson I had in junior high school made it crystal clear to me that the law is the expression of the ruling class’s will, and that it exists to maintain the order and interests of the ruling class, not for fairness and justice.”

Su Jie shook his head with a smile. After all, Beautiful Country is a developed capitalist nation, and capital is the ruling class there.

Capital seeks profits, and for the West, they are accustomed to accumulating wealth through plunder, and Jieke Group is undoubtedly a lucrative target.

Truly believing in a legal judgment is undoubtedly a very foolish act.

It’s like sheep and pigs offering their necks to butchers, hoping for a moment of conscience.

“I was never taught that in school.”

Nong Lan shrank her neck as if she realized she had said something foolish.

“It’s fine, let’s go to dinner. We’re having a seafood feast tonight.”

Su Jie didn’t mind a girl’s opinion, nor was he upset.

Considering the commotion Beautiful Country had made, it was clear they had no intention of stepping into the ring themselves.

With so many underlings at their command, it was clear they intended to let the underlings trouble Jieke Group.

With Beautiful Country, the leading brother, backing off, Su Jie wasn’t under much pressure in dealing with the other underlings.
