With Jin Liuwu's agreement, the two men's competition was officially set.
Representatives from various countries became interested.
After all, it was something they were happy to see, a challenge from South Korea to China.
No matter who won or lost, they could enjoy the spectacle. If South Korea won, it would be even better, as it would be a blow to China's prestige.
Recently, China's international standing had been rising, which made them feel uneasy and displeased.
They were once targets that anyone could bully, but now they were suddenly on equal footing, even surpassing many Western countries.
This feeling was difficult to accept.
In their eyes, white people were the supreme beings, superior to all others.
Little did they know that they were nothing, and the Chinese were the true inheritors.
They themselves were unable to see the truth, deceiving themselves, like clowns.
To ensure fairness and justice, shall we have the host country, the United States, set the questions? Jin Liuwu looked at Xia Feng and said.
No need. Xia Feng refused Jin Liuwu's suggestion.
Then what do you mean?
Jin Liuwu's eyes widened upon hearing this.
Was there something wrong with what he said?
Wasn't it the fairest and most just for the Americans to set the questions?
Or did he want to set the questions himself?
What I mean is, you set the questions. Chinese medicine is at the pinnacle of the world, capable of handling any ailment with ease. So, you set the questions, which will also make your defeat unquestionable.
Xia Feng waved his hand indifferently, signaling Jin Liuwu to set the questions himself.
This time, Jin Liuwu was truly stunned.
Is there such an idiot?
Isn't this a joke?
To say such a thing, this person must either be out of his mind or possess extremely high medical skills, with blind confidence in his abilities.
Jin Liuwu leaned more towards the former, as from their conversation, Jin Liuwu was convinced that Xia Feng was definitely out of his mind.
Normally, a rational person wouldn't be so arrogant and conceited. Even with superior medical skills, one must proceed with caution.
Alright.
Jin Liuwu agreed without hesitation. How could he refuse such a good opportunity?
If he were to refuse it hypocritically now, then he would be the idiot.
Good, let's start now.
Xia Feng said and walked towards the stage.
Everyone, I have a proposal, what do you think?
At this moment, a reporter from Time magazine, Anna, suddenly went on stage and asked everyone.
Please speak.
Everyone said.
Now, China and South Korea are competing in medicine, something that has never happened at this exchange conference. Moreover, it is something the whole world wants to see. Why don't we do a live broadcast of the entire event, allowing people worldwide to see whether Chinese medicine is better or Korean medicine is superior?
Anna expressed her thoughts.
Great, Miss Anna's words are excellent. China and Korea are competing in medicine, and they have also made a bet. Let the people of the world be witnesses, and let everyone see whether Korean medicine or Chinese medicine is better.
The head of the World Health Organization's conference agreed with Anna's idea.
They were purely there to watch the show. It didn't matter to them who won or lost. Their hearts were more inclined towards China losing.
If China lost, it would truly be a disgrace to the whole world.
Now that Anna has made such a request, it couldn't be better.
Do you two have any objections?
Seeing everyone agree, Anna turned her attention to Xia Feng and Jin Liuwu and asked.
After all, they were the main parties involved in this competition. If the parties did not agree, the live broadcast could not proceed.
I have no objections. Xia Feng said indifferently.
I have no objections either. Jin Liuwu had even fewer objections. This time, he had the advantage of time, place, and people. What was there to fear?
He couldn't wait to do this, so he could become famous worldwide.
After all, South Korea was too small. Gaining fame domestically was nowhere near as satisfying as gaining fame globally.
Alright, since no one has any objections, I will proceed with the global live broadcast, Anna said.
I have a small request. Xia Feng said.
Please speak. Anna glanced at Xia Feng with her beautiful eyes, a hint of curiosity in them.
Please pixelate my face slightly. I don't want to be too conspicuous. After all, there are too many people like me in China; I am just one of them.
Xia Feng said calmly.
He didn't want to become too famous. For China, he was behind the scenes and would not step onto the stage.
No problem.
Anna agreed without any hesitation.
In the eyes of others, Xia Feng was afraid of being beaten by his countrymen if he lost.
This was understandable. Having the courage to participate in the competition was enough. No one had any objections to this small request.
As Anna agreed, she casually initiated the live broadcast, which was accessible to the entire world.
China.
Minister, there's an emergency.
Lou Mingyi, the Minister of Health, was in his office when his secretary rushed in and said.
What is it? Lou Mingyi asked, puzzled.
The representative attending the WHO medical exchange conference on behalf of China is competing with South Korea. The United States is currently broadcasting it globally. I am worried that a loss could lead to very serious consequences.
The secretary immediately reported the situation they had just learned to Lou Mingyi.
Lou Mingyi was also taken aback.
He naturally knew the seriousness of the matter and then anxiously asked: Who is the leader of this delegation?
The new Chinese medicine professor at Fudan University, Xia Feng. This is the only information available; no other details could be found. The secretary said.
Understood, you may leave. After instructing the secretary to leave, Lou Mingyi immediately reported this news.
It was then reported layer by layer up to Elder Li.
Upon learning of this, Elder Li smiled and quickly instructed people to have all television stations rebroadcast the live stream of Xia Feng's competition.
With Elder Li's authorization, China Central Television suspended all television programs and broadcast the live stream from the United States.
Major online media outlets began broadcasting, and even large outdoor screens showed the live broadcast of this competition.
It can be said that all Chinese people learned about this competition in real-time.
The Korean medicine representative from South Korea had challenged the Chinese medicine representative from China.
This news directly ignited the entire internet, becoming the hottest headline of the day.
And today happened to be Wang Feng's concert, so the headline was gone again.
Who is our country's Chinese medicine representative? Why is their face pixelated? Are the Americans doing this on purpose?
Looking at the physique and clothing, they seem very young.
I also think they are too young. Chinese medicine being young is not reliable.
Isn't this going to embarrass China? Losing would be a global shame, and this is a worldwide live broadcast.
Netizens on various platforms expressed their doubts.
This cannot be blamed on everyone, as Chinese medicine is too young and indeed lacks much credibility.
This competition is not a personal matter; it represents China. Chinese medicine is already in decline. If this competition is lost to South Korea, there will be no hope for its resurgence.
