108: Asia, Europe and the United States all have traditional divisions, but what the hell is the Desert Camel Zone?

On that day, Qinchuan Evening News spent half an hour introducing the development progress of Julong Steel Factory.

They also congratulated them on receiving the Army Friendly Collaboration Unit plaque, hoping they would continue to work hard and contribute to the development of the motherland.

"What's going on? Isn't Julong Steel a traitorous enterprise?"

"Don't get led by the nose; haven't you noticed that no one has mentioned that lately?"

"The internet spies and 1450s have been rounded up; Julong Steel was just a target."

"The mysterious power behind Julong Steel has made its move, and the clowns have been wiped out."

Watching the news, Bai Xiaoying complained, "Director Lu, you didn't even let me ride the wave of such a big event?"

"The city ordered the news to be locked down; I couldn't notify you," Lu Shenwei said helplessly.

Zhou Wen specifically asked him to keep it secret because all city-level leaders were in attendance and the city TV station was filming the whole time, so they didn't look for other media.

Bai Xiaoying hung her head, and Lu Shenwei comforted her, "How about I get you for the content creation video in a couple of days?"

Hearing the words "content creation," Bai Xiaoying's eyes lit up.

"What? What?"

"Nothing major; the higher-ups want to make an example of someone to clear our names," Lu Shenwei said casually.

The internet spies, traitors, and rebels had been rounded up, and it was time to close the net.

"It's a deal, then," Bai Xiaoying said with a grin.

Over the next two days, the entire internet circle was calm. Sales of the longmao small car from Julong Steel also returned to normal levels. Many car enthusiasts who had canceled their orders started lining up to buy cars again, and sales of Julong Steel Pipe and Longying Drone also increased significantly.

"Damn it, it's been nearly two months since the launch; hasn't Julong Steel ramped up production yet?"

"Last time the queue was 170,000; this time it's even more ridiculous—the order number has hit 360,000."

"An average monthly sale of 200,000—the only one in the Dragon Xia automotive industry."

"Does Julong Steel count as a car company? It doesn't seem entirely like one."

While the internet was calm, the Patrol Police on the ground were busy as bees.

Thanks to Lu Shenwei acting as bait to draw fire, the Patrol Police dismantled 23 internet troll gangs across the country within a week.

They arrested 442 internet trolls, confiscated over 6,000 mobile phones used for criminal activities, and cut off 8 contact points for foreign forces.

The Dragon Xia General Administration of Patrol Police gave special praise to the leaders at the provincial and municipal levels in Qinchuan, hailing them as models within the Patrol Police.

Zhou Wen received a special commendation from the Dragon Xia General Administration, and the topic of appointing him as District Chief was put on the agenda.

"Little Lu, the city is holding an awards ceremony the day after tomorrow; you must attend," Zhou Wen said seriously.

Lu Shenwei asked, "Have they finished catching everyone?"

"There are three suspects with dual citizenship still at large; everyone else has been caught. You wouldn't know until you investigated, but it's shocking. Guess how much money was involved?"

"Internet trolls get at most 50 cents for deleting posts or leaving comments; how much money could there be?"

Lu Shenwei said casually, but Zhou Wen shook his head. "You underestimate this bunch. They have support from foreign forces and specialize in targeting specific topics."

"Stirring up gender conflict, leading the narrative to smear the motherland, pushing for the abolition of the death penalty, and advocating for the legalization of marijuana."

Lu Shenwei frowned. "It's true they can't stand to see us do well, but do they have to create a gender-based attack helicopter?"

"As long as they can destabilize the Dragon Xia government, they are willing to do it. It's organized and premeditated, and the key is that they have ample funding. We have already frozen 32 million USD in their accounts."

"That much?"

Lu Shenwei was startled. In his impression, following the trend and posting comments only paid 50 cents.

"They have a lot of funding, but the trolls doing the work get very little: 20 cents for posting, 3 yuan for deleting, and the trolls have to pay for their own internet."

"That's really pathetic, but they deserve it."

"Do you still remember Locke Dongde Niu Ding Company?"

"They are involved in this too?"

"The main force behind this attack on Julong Steel is a financier from Eagle Nation, and the higher-ups have preliminarily identified Locke Dongde Niu Ding Company as the mastermind behind the scenes."

"Trash company. Their products aren't as good as ours, so they can only smear us through underhanded means."

Lu Shenwei looked disdainful. Zhou Wen consoled him, "Leave the rest to us. Just wait to receive your award. All the honors owed to Julong Steel will be made up to you at once."

"I still want to thank you for your support. I heard you're getting a promotion; how about I set up a few tables to celebrate?"

"What promotion? It's not even a sure thing yet."

"Is there any possibility you could come to the Advanced Manufacturing District where our steel factory is located?" Lu Shenwei asked.

"Julong Steel is a juicy piece of meat now. Not just the city, but even leaders in the province are eyeing it."

"Previously, a Round Table Leader specially visited the mayor, wanting to move Julong Steel to the provincial capital. The mayor held his ground and didn't agree, which caused a long period of unpleasantness between them."

Lu Shenwei said in surprise, "There's such a thing?"

"There's plenty more. Don't think your development has been smooth sailing, kid; I've blocked so many disasters for you."

Zhou Wen said casually. Lu Shenwei said seriously, "That's all the more reason to treat you to a good meal, sir, to thank you for your help over these past few years."

"Not causing trouble is the biggest help you can give me. In the future, if there are any matters regarding communication with the military that don't involve confidentiality, feel free to tell me."

Hearing Zhou Wen say this, Lu Shenwei swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Yesterday evening, Chen Guang called to invite him to observe the Western Theater Command's summer joint military exercise.

The famous Colonel Man's mechanized brigade acted as the Blue Side, while Chen Guang's troops acted as the Red Side for the confrontation.

Except for Lu Shenwei, who was a non-professional, everyone invited to observe were bigwigs from the military.

"There are indeed a few projects; I'll tell you once they are declassified," Lu Shenwei said softly.

Zhou Wen nodded. "Huang Liang will give you the speech draft tomorrow. You better memorize it, kid; don't you dare mess it up."

"Rest assured, when have I ever messed up?"

Just as Lu Shenwei was smiling and giving his assurance, Wang Zizhong entered the room.

"Zhou Cun, help me see the leader out. Uncle Wang, do you have something to say?"

Wang Zizhong nodded at Zhou Wen, who was rushing out the door, and said slowly, "I don't know where they got the news, but the Siberian Economic Development Bureau of the Maoxiong has sent a commercial letter, hoping to order 5,000 of our longmao small cars."

"Maoxiong? The Siberian Economic Development Bureau?"

Wang Zizhong handed over the translated commercial letter. Lu Shenwei frowned and said, "The Russians have taken a fancy to our longmao small car? Has the longmao small car become popular abroad?"

"Little Zhou says that the videos of modified longmao on foreign websites have gone viral."

Lu Shenwei asked curiously, "I'll ask Zhou Cun when he gets back."

Lu Shenwei really didn't expect that the longmao small car could become popular abroad; it was just a high-horsepower agricultural vehicle, what could it possibly be modified into?

But after Zhou Cun returned to the factory and showed him the videos, he realized he had underestimated the modification potential of the longmao agricultural vehicle.

"Chairman, heavily modified longmao small cars are a hot topic on foreign websites now. Which section would you like to see first?"

"There are video sections for modified longmao small cars?"

Asia, Europe/America, and Domestic are all traditional major sections.

But what the hell is this Desert Camel section? Brown curly-haired, hairy beauties?
