Chapter 436: Chapter 434: Excitement Among the Crowd【2nd Update】

Jerry boarded the plane with Lao Ganma.

He didn’t notice that an email had arrived on his turned-off phone, which he did not see.

Oh, by the way, it’s worth mentioning that ever since Xiaobu planted the seed a few days ago, Liang Lan had already taken care of all the related procedures.

After all, you all know very well what kind of person Liang Lan is when it comes to handling matters.

I would normally not bother to explain this, mainly to avoid you guys fixating on customs issues or regulations about not being allowed to carry certain items and so on.

Please rest assured when Liang Lan is handling things!

...

At this moment, the Heavenly Dynasty and Korea are still in a spat.

At this point, Korea’s approach is pretty formulaic, repeatedly harping on about kimchi, just going on and on about it.

One kimchi holding up an entire country, that’s also something.

But regardless of how it’s said, they’re indeed gaining the upper hand with just kimchi and shamelessness.

Korean: "Doesn’t your Heavenly Dynasty have five thousand years of history? How come you don’t even have a single health food? Isn’t that embarrassing?"

Heavenly Dynasty: "Since when did our Heavenly Dynasty’s cuisine need foreign recognition?"

Korean: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, listen to this, what now? Stubborn to the end? Did this hurt your little pride? Aw, poor things!"

Listen to them, isn’t it infuriating? Deserving a beating, truly deserving!

Many people were so angry they couldn’t eat.

A small restaurant.

"Damn it, I’m furious!"

The clueless owner asked, "What’s wrong?"

"It’s those damn Koreans. Look at the comments online, it’s a total uproar! That bunch of Koreans actually say our Heavenly Dynasty has no cuisine, no health foods!"

The restaurant owner exploded: "What did they say? Dammit, this is absolutely intolerable! Bloody hell!"

"Exactly, that’s why I’m cursing them out."

The owner washed his hands: "Come on, tell me where to join the cursing? How about you record a video for me, and I’ll show them what Heavenly Dynasty cuisine is all about!"

"It’s useless, they’re shameless to the core now, they keep bringing up America, talking about health food certifications, sales volume, and so on."

Owner: "Damn it! Our Heavenly Dynasty’s food is not something like pickles that you can just pack and export. It’s best when freshly made. How can it be exported? By the time it gets there, it’s not even good to eat anymore!"

"Exactly! But the Koreans don’t care about that!"

"..."

Similar opinions were happening in every corner of the country.

Ordinary people are outraged, and chefs even more so!

Gradually, a new trend started online.

"Damn it, their side has kimchi, just a seasoning. Doesn’t our Great Heavenly Dynasty have any seasonings exported to America?"

"Yeah! What the hell are those seasoning companies doing?"

"That’s right, Lao Ganma! Send Lao Ganma over, it’s definitely viable."

"Viable my foot, Lao Ganma has only been established for so long, its brand recognition hasn’t spread among foreigners, and you know that foreigners’ tastes are different from ours."

"The person above is right. Although Korea really pisses us off, we must say there’s reason behind it; their kimchi culture has been exported for years, and this continuous cultural export led to the current situation. Lao Ganma certainly has strength, but it doesn’t have enough time yet. If we want to showcase and win, we have to rely on companies that already have some recognition, like Mao Yuan Company’s products."

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s hurry up and approach Mao Yuan Company."

"Let’s go, let’s go, together!"

"..."

Instantly, countless netizens swarmed into Mao Yuan Company’s official website and official Weibo.

"Don’t just stand there, hurry up and export to America!"

"Yeah, don’t you feel pissed off watching this?"

"Mao Yuan Company is somewhat renowned in the hearts of foreigners; right now, only you guys can turn the tables for us."

"That’s right, that’s right, load up, export, set off! Hit them with a few million US dollars."

"..."

Mao Yuan Company’s official website and Weibo were overrun.

Finally, Mao Yuan Company’s CEO Qi Zhendong had to come forward to explain personally.

"Brothers and sisters, I know everyone is angry, and I’m angry too. I also want to bring glory to our country and beat those Koreans."

"But please understand our difficulties, okay?"

"As everyone knows, foreigners’ eating habits are different from ours. So even though our Mao Yuan has a place in their hearts, it’s really too limited, not something that can be achieved overnight."

"Of course, we’re not shirking responsibility. Regarding this matter, we’ll take the lead. We’re increasing our marketing efforts and doing everything we can to open up the market, but this can’t be done in a jiffy."

It’s fair to say Qi Zhendong knows how to prioritize and understand the urgency of the situation.

At this critical juncture, he chose not to divert attention or evade but to confront the issue directly.

This has also earned everyone’s praise.

However, praise is praise, but people still couldn’t help feeling a bit despondent.

"Even though it’s hard to accept, we have to admit Qi Zhendong is stating the facts!"

"Forget it, CEO Qi, we understand. We’re just upset and venting, we hope you don’t take offense."

"Are we just going to watch Korea be arrogant?"

"Damn it, I’m not willing to let it go!"

"Right! If even Mao Yuan can’t sanction them, who can?"

"It’s infuriating!"

"..."

The above opinions are from the rational netizens, while the irrational ones didn’t follow them to Mao Yuan.

Instead, they took to Lao Ganma’s official website and Xiaobu’s Weibo.

"Fuck! Xiaobu, why are you playing turtle now? Have you forgotten that you caused this? Why so silent now?"

"That’s right! Isn’t Lao Ganma the leader in the condiment market? You have the ability to open up the international market!"

"It’s truly shameful; don’t let me lose respect for you!"

"Really a complete loser. Ever since the issue started, not a word from you. Weren’t you tough? Weren’t you awesome? Can’t you make a statement? Just watching us get bullied? Watching us be humiliated?"

"You’re really something!"

"..."

Reading these online comments, Xiaobu chose not to retort with insults this time.

Although the words were harsh, and they didn’t know the truth of the matter,

He still chose not to insult them back.

Not for any other reason, but because at this moment, these people were standing with the Heavenly Dynasty.

But not retaliating doesn’t mean not responding.

Xiaobu posted on his Weibo:

"Alright, you want to knock them down, then let’s do it. How much was it? 5.34 million US dollars, right? So, how about we do 5.34 million US dollars and one cent?"

You’re disgusted?

Then let’s disgust them back!

Just one more fucking cent!

To disgust them to death!

Let you guys vent properly!
