On the internet, a panoramic view of the Qingyun Building has appeared on major video websites.
'It's spectacular...'
'It's not too tall, but the area is so large. With an area this large, how good can the lighting be?'
'Needless to say, the lighting is definitely not good!'
'The building is not yet finished, it has reached this height in just over a month, which is pretty high. At this rate, if Qingyun Company is given two more months, it will definitely be able to build more than 200 floors...'
'There's no problem with lighting. I've seen some pictures of the inside of the building posted online by people who have moved in. It's really quite nice, but it's a pity...'
'Upstairs, where did you see the pictures? I can send you a better picture of the inside of the building. Do you really believe the pictures on the internet? I'm really impressed by your brain...'
'What's a pity? It's a shoddy construction project, it should be blown up. Kudos to the authorities, this building is worth at least hundreds of billions of yuan, and they just blew it up. It really shows extraordinary courage!'
'Yes, this time we must applaud the authorities. They were not intimidated by power and were not tempted by money. I heard that some time ago, Qingyun Company bribed some senior officials to get things done, causing many low-level officials targeting Qingyun Company to fall from power. As a result, the core officials were furious and this time they directly sent the military to intervene. What a show of strength! It's just as it should be!'
'These rich people really think that having money is awesome, don't they? A building worth hundreds of billions of yuan was blown to pieces today!'
'The boss of Qingyun Company is going to cry. He wanted to make a fortune, but in the end he'll lose everything. Deserves it!'
...
Countless netizens chimed in with their comments, and there were also some people who stood by Qingyun Company. Most of these people were loyal users of Qingyun Company's products, but there were far too few of them. More netizens were guided by a force of some kind, and it left them with a very bad impression of Qingyun Company.
'What must it have been like to blow up a building this high and this big?'
'Here are some videos of the building being blown up, you can have a look...'
'Wow, it's spectacular...'
'A building dozens of stories high reduced to ashes in an instant, and the mushroom cloud that rose was like a nuclear weapon explosion...'
'The Qingyun Building is even bigger and taller, I really want to see what it looks like when it's blown up!'
'Yeah, I'm looking forward to it!'
On another forum, some netizens were discussing what it would be like to blow up the Qingyun Building. Watching some videos of building explosions in other places, where entire buildings collapsed in an instant and were reduced to ashes, they couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement, and couldn't wait to see what the Qingyun Building would look like when it was blown up.
Above a sea, in a car, Lin Yun was also watching this video.
After staying up all day without sleep, he once again obtained more than 10,000 spiritual crystals. He purchased a new professional equipment for absorbing and refining spiritual energy, and at the same time, he found a second-level spiritual item and purchased a second-level spiritual energy on the universal trading system. He integrated the two second-level spiritual energies into the two new pieces of equipment.
At present, Lin Yun has set up twelve professional equipment for absorbing and refining spiritual energy around the world, and one of the equipment incorporates a second-level spiritual energy purchased on the cosmic trading system.
Now, these twelve pieces of equipment can provide Lin Yun with about 10,500 spiritual crystals every day.
On the cosmic trading system, Lin Yun still has more than 5,000 spiritual crystals, which he has not spent but kept as a backup.
'No wonder, the more powerful some people become, the more cold-blooded they become. Because the more powerful they become, the more they see through things. Ordinary people who are not related to them rarely think about them sincerely. No matter how good you are to them, they may not necessarily remember your kindness. If they are guided by some people with ulterior motives, they may even stand on the opposite side of you...'
'Furthermore, there is a gap in strength, so some powerful people regard ordinary people as ants and can destroy them at will...'
Looking at the many black comments on the internet targeting Qingyun Company, Lin Yun took a deep breath and spoke softly.
He knew that some of these black comments were deliberately written by people with malicious intent to smear Qingyun Company, but many more were actually written by netizens who had been manipulated. There was also a portion of people who had a similar anti-rich mentality. They couldn't help but get excited when they saw powerful people fall, regardless of whether the other party was good or bad.
Xianyuan County, a place.
'In the past two days, all domestic surveillance has been activated, but no high-level energy has been detected. There are now ten minutes until the Qingyun Building explodes. Has Lin Yun not shown up, or is it true that domestic surveillance has lost track of him...'
An old man frowned inside a flying vehicle.
If Lin Yun were here, he would recognise that this old man was one of the innate strength members of the Tian Group who had confronted him yesterday.
This flying vehicle was also the one that dealt with him yesterday.
'If domestic surveillance can no longer monitor him, that would be the worst case scenario. We will immediately implement the second plan and pay full attention to the whereabouts of Lin Yun. Once the opponent appears, if necessary, we can implement the plan we discussed yesterday...' The old man in the late stage of the pre-transcendent realm said coldly.
'Elder Leng, we had better be cautious about that plan...' An old man with a slightly changed expression kept saying.
'I know what you mean, but extraordinary circumstances require extraordinary measures. Once we blow up this building and implement the second step of the plan, our conflict with Lin Yun will become even greater. If he defected to another country, you can imagine the consequences,' said the old man at the late stage of the innate realm, glancing at the old man who spoke.
'The ages of those of us here range from the mid-seventies to over a hundred and thirty years old. We all know what happened to the Great Xia decades ago. At that time, the Great Xia had only 400 million people, or even less. Now it has reached 15 billion, only a loss of 1 million is insignificant...' After a pause, the old man in the late stage of the innate realm said indifferently.
'Ten, nine, eight, seven...'
Finally, the countdown for the destruction of the Qingyun Building began.
Tens of millions of netizens across the country were watching this video.
Lin Yun also stared at the video intently, and a cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and a surge of anger welled up in his heart.
Although he had already decided to give up the Qingyun Building, he still couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart as he watched it about to be blown up.
As a powerful innate expert in the Tianzu group said, this building was built during the early stages of his development, and he poured a lot of effort into it. For this reason, he was even willing to accept the slower pace of development and the slower rate at which he could purchase various resources.
His feelings for the Qingyun Building were no longer simply worth hundreds of billions of Daxia currency, but rather trillions of Daxia currency.
'Boom...'
Finally, a series of explosions sounded in the video.
'It is said that due to the structure of Qingyun Building, the explosives used to blow it up this time are enough to destroy five buildings with a floor area of this size. The authorities are fighting for a single explosion to completely destroy Qingyun Building without a secondary explosion. I really want to know what the scene will be like. Demolishing a building on such a large scale is a display of the authorities' tough stance against shoddy construction. This is an epoch-making event, and from now on, everyone's sense of security in their homes will increase a lot...'
In the middle of the video, a host quickly introduced with great excitement.
'Huh?'
However, just as the host turned his head to look at the distant scene, he couldn't help but be stunned.
The explosions were indeed loud, and a lot of smoke and dust had risen, but in the smoke and dust, it could be faintly seen that the Qingyun Building had not completely collapsed like the original building demolition scenes.
'What's going on?'
'What's the situation?'
'How come the Qingyun Building didn't collapse?'
'Did the explosives fail?'
Countless netizens also noticed this scene and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
They heard that the Qingyun Building, a super-large-scale building, was going to be blown up today, so most of them deliberately searched for the scene of the building blowing up. Something seemed wrong with the scene.
'I thought the explosives were enough to blow up five buildings with a floor area of this size?'
'I thought the authorities were striving for a single explosion, not a secondary explosion? It seems that not even one floor of the 70-odd-storey Qingyun Building has collapsed...'
'The explosives are pretty weak, aren't they?'
Some people questioned online.
Finally, the smoke and dust dispersed, and the Qingyun Building became clearer and clearer to the audience. Indeed, the Qingyun Building did not collapse as everyone had expected, but was just blasted by some explosives, creating many holes. However, it still stood there tenaciously, without even the first floor collapsing.
'The Qingyun Building is awesome! I told you, the Qingyun Building is fine!'
'Damn, this is terrible. I told you, Qingyun Building is so well decorated, I've never seen such good decoration, how could they cut corners on the quality? I managed to grab a room in Qingyun Building the day before yesterday, but now it's all gone, they've ruined a perfectly good room...'
'I told you, Qingyun products are all high-tech, and so is Qingyun Building, what's the big deal about building 70-odd floors in a month? The facts have proved that Qingyun Building is of very good quality, it didn't even collapse despite being hit by five times the amount of explosives!'
Some comments immediately exploded on the internet, with people angrily saying:
These people are mostly those who grabbed the rooms in the Qingyun Building. There are a total of 560,000 of them, which is a very terrifying number. Once they work together, they are powerful enough to wreak havoc on the internet.
No one knows better than they do how well the Qingyun Building is decorated.
However, the authorities said that there were problems with the quality of the Qingyun Building. They were mostly laymen, and with the time constraints, they were unable to judge.
After all, the authorities did not confiscate the Qingyun Building, but planned to blow it up.
In their minds, if there really were problems with the quality of the Qingyun Building, the authorities would not have done that, right?
After all, the Qingyun Building had been built on such a large scale.
Now, five times the amount of explosives failed to bring Qingyun Mansion down, and they immediately exploded.
Houses are the pressure of many people in this era. No one can understand how excited they feel when they grab such a good house, and no one can understand how distressed they feel when they know that these houses are going to be blown up.
Now, all of this has turned into anger.
'Nowadays, the economy of Daxia is very abnormal. It is all supported by the housing market. I think it must be because the authorities heard that Qingyun Company planned to sell those houses to others for 1,000 yuan per square metre, and they were afraid that the collapse of the housing market would affect the overall economy of Daxia, so they seized Qingyun Company and blew up the Qingyun Building. It's really despicable...'
An Internet user angrily said.
'Er...'
In the video, the host was also very embarrassed. He hadn't expected there to be such a big difference between reality and his imagination. Looking at the large number of angry comments rapidly refreshing on some of the screens in front of him, he had a vague feeling that what he had just said had caused trouble. He couldn't help but secretly curse himself.
If he had known, he would have kept his mouth shut. It was already blown up over there, and he still opened his mouth. Really...
Just then, a voice came over his headphones.
'Dear audience, I'm sorry, due to the structure of the Qingyun Building, the authorities have miscalculated the amount of explosives needed to bring it down. As you all know, the Qingyun Building has a large footprint, and the stability of this type of building is also superior to that of ordinary buildings...'
The host quickly said after listening to a few sentences.
'Stability superior to ordinary buildings, does this prove that there is nothing wrong with the Qingyun Building?'
'Damn, this is bullshit...'
'They're even broadcasting the tofu-dregs construction project live nationwide, but your explosives are tofu-dregs...'
The angry netizens were still not satisfied and continued to rant.
'The stability of this type of building is superior to that of ordinary buildings, but this does not mean that this type of building is really safe. Everyone should be able to see that there are already many large holes in the Qingyun Building, which proves that the quality of the Qingyun Building is indeed problematic. The safety of a building cannot be judged just by looking at the frame, but also by looking at the floors above, below and to the left and right...'
The host's forehead was covered in cold sweat as he hurriedly continued to explain.
'Now, the authorities are preparing the secondary explosives. In fact, secondary blasting is also a normal situation for blasting buildings. This kind of building blasting may not be successful due to the location of the explosives and the force of the explosion. This is also a normal situation. It can only be said that Qingyun Building covers an area that is too large, and these data are really difficult to calculate...'
The host continued.
Official:
'I didn't expect that the quality of Qingyun Building was so good...' An official frowned.
'Not because of calculation problems?' An official exclaimed in surprise.
'What's the problem with the calculations? The host was just trying to fool the ordinary people. The quality of this Qingyun Building is really good. I briefly tested it earlier and expected it to be of relatively good quality, but I didn't expect it to be this good. It didn't even collapse after being blown up with five times the amount of explosives,' said the official, shaking his head.
'We've already arranged for someone to send ten times the amount of explosives for a second blast. There shouldn't be a problem,' said an official in a deep voice.
Soon, half an hour passed, and the authorities began to broadcast live the second explosion of the Qingyun Building.
Because of what happened just now, it quickly spread on the internet, and this time there were even more netizens watching the video.
'Boom...'
The second explosion sounded again.
This time, the host didn't say how much explosives were used.
However, looking at the rising smoke, which was even bigger, many viewers guessed that more explosives were used this time.
However, soon, many netizens once again became agitated.
Because, with this explosion, Qingyun Building still did not collapse.
As the smoke dispersed, people gradually saw that Qingyun Building was only more dilapidated, but the frame was still standing tenaciously, without even a hint of collapsing.
'Damn it, liar, the authorities are such big liars!'
'Don't say it, this time the explosives were not used as much as last time!'
'Everyone is not an idiot, stupid!'
'What do you mean that Qingyun Building is tofu dregs, if this is tofu dregs, which other buildings are up to standard?'
'Qingyun Company has offended someone, you just want to deal with Qingyun Company!'
'Qingyun Company is being targeted because it sold its properties at too low a price! Such a good building, I'd rather it be blown up!'
'Didn't you expect the quality of Qingyun Building to be so good? Did the slap in the face hurt?'
One angry comment after another quickly refreshed across various major online platforms.
Seeing this, some officials handling the matter on the official side also felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.
Two blasts, one with five times the explosive power and the other with ten times the explosive power, and Qingyun Building still stands. This is really a slap in the face.
'Prepare for the third blast immediately. Tell the host to tell the public that the second blast was carried out in two...segments! By the way, for the third blast, use fifteen times the explosive power this time!' An official quickly said.
