Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 384: Chapter 383: Uproar

As a leader, I thank the Cosmic Umbrella Company, you have ensured the safety of my citizens’ lives!

As a father, I must thank the Cosmic Umbrella Company even more, because of you, I can play basketball with my son once again!”

As this news was broadcast, the voices of doubt on major media websites were all suppressed, replaced by something else!

”Truly worthy of the Cosmic Umbrella Company, only the greatest genius of this century, Jiang Cheng, could create such a miracle akin to the elixir of life!

”To those who doubted, have your faces been slapped? Who gave you the courage to question the great genius who helps our nation progress, when you’re all so unlearned?

”I think those critics should all come forward and apologize to Jiang Cheng, otherwise, they will never dare go to the hospital again in this lifetime, because when they fall ill, how could they face using the medicines from the Cosmic Umbrella Company amid such widespread praise, Jiang Cheng was indeed the most excited person, but his expression was very calm, as if it were all meant to be!

”I don’t need to say much about the next things, remember, the Genetic Recovery Potion can be openly purchased, but note, our medicine is sold only to the Huaxia people, and requires real-name authentication, as there might be some agents from other nations eyeing our stuff jealously.

”Moreover, for those truly in need but unable to purchase, we should consider gifting them the Genetic Recovery Potion, because for a company, if profit is above all, one might be too inconsiderate!”

After Jiang Cheng gave the directive, Zhang Manlin began to take charge of the Genetic Recovery Potion, which was still being officially sold!

As misunderstandings about this medicine were cleared, on the day it was launched, it sold at an unbelievable high price! At 100,000 yuan per unit, it sold 100,000 orders in just one day, what does this signify?

In an instant, it was enough to propel Jiang Cheng into a billionaire, but the poignant reality was, the majority of buyers were not those truly in need! Most were wealthy individuals, who in their youth had spent most of their efforts making money, only to need to spend their life’s earnings in old age to restore their deteriorating health! And Jiang Cheng’s appearance, to them, was like that of a god, making the Genetic Recovery Potion a must-have!

Even if it’s just buying it to store at home, that alone would be quite reassuring!

But after reading this report, Jiang Cheng’s expression slightly tightened, he suddenly discovered a problem that no matter how much he led this era to great change!

No matter how the technology developed to a daunting level? One thing could not truly be solved from the roots, which is the inherent flaws of human nature! In childhood, the Three Character Classic said, human nature at birth is inherently good, roughly meaning humans are born kind, but later change due to various external influences into narrow-minded individuals!

Killers and arsonists gain gold belts, bridge builders and road menders are left with no bodies!

It’s not that the rich of this era are particularly unkind, but once they possess a certain economic confidence and power, they begin to regard themselves as superior, seeing the lives of commoners as insignificant!

After an intense ideological struggle, Jiang Cheng called Zhang Manlin into his office, he had to make a decision that was unimaginable and terrifying!

He knew what he was proposing was insane, he also knew he was going against the tides, but Jiang Cheng chose to proceed anyway! President Jiang, are you sure you weren’t joking just now?” Zhang Manlin, after hearing Jiang Cheng’s speech, opened her mouth wide, totally unable to believe it!

What a joke? She could be a hundred percent sure and guarantee that if Jiang Cheng’s decision were tomorrow’s headline on major news outlets, it would instantly explode globally! Because this man, is single-handedly attempting to defy the entire era! Ten minutes later, Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company released a new statement that the Genetic Recovery Potion would be sold through a screening process!

Priority would be given to those in need, beyond that, no matter how wealthy you are, you can’t purchase this potion if your body is well! Jiang Cheng’s reasoning was simple, it was merely to let his nation lose fewer lives, for this goal, he had been tirelessly striving!

But this statement elicited strong dissatisfaction among the wealthy, frankly speaking, now that the fog has lifted, Jiang Cheng’s medicine indeed has an incredible effect! It has become equivalent to a divine medicine, and as long as you possess it, you can ensure some degree of self-preservation when facing illness!

But now the Cosmic Umbrella Company has directly cut off the purchase channel, if you wish to buy, you must provide proof of a life-threatening illness, otherwise, sorry, the Cosmic Umbrella Company will not grant you the medicine!

Even though a greater portion of the Genetic Recovery Potion was used for aid to the poor, Jiang Cheng did not open up the purchasing channels!

This caused great anger among the rich domestically, they banded together to release a statement! For the actions of the Cosmic Umbrella Company, I am very confused, from now on, any collaboration with your company will be entirely rejected!

Indeed, merchants should focus on profit, what’s the point of pretending to be righteous for a good reputation?

But you must understand, what you are doing will come at a severe cost!” The comments from rich individuals ran harshly, but that was the reality, today’s society had formed a class system, where the wealthy and powerful stood above others!

Yet Jiang Cheng still insisted on his decision, because he always believed that goodness in this world is rewarded!

The Cosmic Umbrella Company faced a massive crisis, many partners canceled their deals because they viewed Jiang Cheng as out of touch with reality, however, after a week of tense waiting, while the company’s medicines were mostly given away, they stirred up a massive storm online!

Mr. Jiang Cheng is truly a modern-day Hua Tuo, he is the genius of the world, a true god, none can match his benevolence!

”If you resist Mr. Jiang Cheng, then we can resist you, can the rich truly afford to be uncompassionate?
