Ch 83 (Part 1): Rebirth of the Tool Man in a Pampered Protagonist Novel

For the first time, Fang Ziyang realized that Xie Wenxu was actually a fool.

He had dropped such obvious hints, a green suit, a big green suit, but Xie Wenxu didn’t react at all?

Since that was the case, Fang Ziyang didn’t want to say anything more. He would let Xie Wenxu wear the green hat for a few more days and discover it himself.

After hanging up the phone, Fang Ziyang immediately sent a WeChat message to Xie Zheng, changing his mood.

【Husband, today is another day I miss you. 😘】

Receiving the message from his obedient wife, Xie Wenxu, who was working, expressed great happiness. He felt full of energy again today.

Then the spirited man decided to work through his lunch break and leave early in the evening.

“All right, everyone, get energized. Let’s continue the next meeting during lunch break and finish work early in the afternoon.”

The people at the New World Technology:…

Okay, the message was definitely sent by the boss’s wife!

…

Although Yan Tong’s online controversy caused a stir on the internet, it didn’t last long. Soon, another keyword replaced the hype. This time, it wasn’t gossip or rumors but a national news.

Yes, it was trending on national news.

The reason was the successful research on the chip ID card, and the government officially announced through official channels that everyone should replace their ID cards with the new chip ID cards. In the released video, the magical features of the chip ID cards were presented to the public.

Once this futuristic technology was announced, the attention of the entire nation was drawn to it.

In this era of popular science education, even people in their sixties or seventies understood the significance of technology for the country and its people.

At this moment, who cared about celebrities or scandals? In the face of national announcements, all those trivial matters were pushed aside.

The day after the chip ID card news was announced, the ratings for the rebroadcast of the central news soared.

And almost everyone who watched the news had expressions of shock and joy.

Subsequently, whether it was at school or in companies, the first topic people discussed when they met was the central news!

Fang Ziyang was surrounded by classmates and teachers.

The reason was simple: the news mentioned that the chip ID card was jointly developed by the government and New World Technology. Tang Xun, his older brother, was one of the main contributors to the technology. Who else would they surround if not Fang Ziyang?

“Fang Ziyang, the news said that the chip ID card is developed by the government and New World Technology together. Is it really as amazing as they described? Your brother is so amazing!”

“Same family, different destinies. I also have an older brother. Why does my brother only know how to take my pocket money all the time…?”

“Fang Ziyang, the news said that it’s directly injected into the brain, it sounds a bit scary. What did your brother tell you? Have you done it already?”

“Although the idea of injecting it into the brain is a bit scary, I also feel excited. The country wouldn’t do anything reckless. Don’t be afraid, everyone…”

“Yeah, I feel like I’m in a sci-fi movie, entering the interstellar era. Such advanced technology, hahaha.”

The classmates and teachers were all excited, surrounding Fang Ziyang and bombarding him with questions.

They didn’t necessarily need him to answer, but because the news was too shocking and joyful, they needed an outlet to express their emotions.

For the nationwide replacement of the chip ID card, the country made thorough preparations and mobilized the entire national machinery.

To prevent foreign countries from catching up and causing trouble, it was necessary to complete the replacement in the shortest possible time.

Even the military was mobilized to maintain order.

In the face of such powerful national machinery and the cooperation of the entire population, Huaguo once again demonstrated its strong cohesion and mobilization capabilities.

In just seven days, whether in cities or rural areas, or even remote mountainous regions, everyone’s ID cards were replaced.

By the time foreign countries reacted, the people of Huaguo were already immersed in exploring the functions of the chip ID card, and the whole nation was filled with joy.

Online forums and Weibo were flooded with posts and discussions about the chip ID card.

Dudu AiXinXinV:

Damn, I studied my new ID card all night yesterday. I just want to shout out now: the country is really amazing!

The new-generation ID card is not just convenient and secure as mentioned in the news… It’s clearly a multi-purpose card with holographic projection. You know, I was scared silly when I followed the instructions in the manual… With the new-generation ID card, I no longer have to worry about forgetting to bring various documents when I go out.

I have a feeling that I’ve entered the interstellar era. It feels so uplifting~

I Want to Pluck the Stars: Hahaha, what you guys have is nothing compared to trying facial recognition for boarding and withdrawing money! The new-generation ID card is not just multi-purpose, it can also serve as a bus card and a bank card!

You absolutely can’t imagine the expression on the old man’s face when he saw it on the bus. Haha… Finally, I can say that I’m one of those who use facial recognition for travel.

His Majesty the Emperor is Me: While you’re all excited about the various functions of the new-generation ID card, have you noticed the gray “unlocking” below the holographic projection? What is that? Shall we study it together?

And did none of you do the “online registration” today when you went online? It’s something that requires the new-generation ID card. I feel like our new ID cards might bring us more surprises in the future. It’s unimaginable how deep my country’s influence is! I always thought our country’s technology was backward, but… I’ve been proven wrong!

The whole country was in a state of jubilation.

However, the reaction overseas was not as joyful upon hearing about Huaguo’s new-generation ID cards. Most of the comments were negative.

After all, due to strong media manipulation and propaganda from foreign media, in the eyes of most people overseas, Huaguo was still stuck in a backward era, with men wearing braided hairstyles and women with bound feet. Huaguo’s main features were kung fu and human resources.

As for Huaguo’s technology? Besides piracy and being outdated, how could they possibly develop advanced technology like the high-tech ID card? It was simply unbelievable.

“Chip ID card? Holographic projection? Oh, why do the people in Huaguo always exaggerate the facts…”

“With the current level of technology, how could they achieve the kind of holographic projection we imagine? It’s a joke. I heard their new ID cards are chips injected into the brain. My goodness, I have to say, the people in Huaguo are really ‘brave’ haha.”

“Who doesn’t know about the level of Huaguo’s technology? Where do they get the nerve to make such big claims? Oh, I finally found a leader worse than our previous president. The people in Huaguo are simply crazy.”

Social media abroad was filled with negative comments, and even if there were occasionally unbiased statements, they were quickly drowned out.

Unfortunately, Huaguo’s image had been demonized to such an extent that foreign media refused to accept the fact that this Eastern dragon had risen and stood up in less than twenty years. They continued to guide public opinion and shape people’s thoughts.

Although it was regrettable, it indirectly demonstrated that Huaguo’s influence in the international community was gradually growing. Why would foreign media conceal positive news? Because they felt threatened.

In fact, compared to the negativity online, the moods of the high-level officials in various countries became a bit serious.

They were not ignorant masses; they were well aware of Huaguo’s situation. Therefore, when it came to the nationwide replacement of the chip ID card in Huaguo, they were shocked.

Due to the short time frame, foreign countries hadn’t been able to explore the chip ID card in detail. However, just by watching the videos sent back from Huaguo, their experts were shocked on the spot.

“No, it’s impossible… Is this really holographic projection technology? It’s even more perfect than we imagined…”

“How could Huaguo’s technology reach this level? According to our previous estimates, it would take at least fifty years to achieve this level!”

“Perfect, too perfect… This is not just a prototype; it’s a mature and perfect product. Huaguo must have been hiding their capabilities before! What a cunning country!”

Experts and professors from various countries were stunned by the functions displayed by the chip ID card.

But what was even more shocking came next.

“Oh my God! Come and see, we can’t access Huaguo’s network anymore!”

“All the people stationed in Huaguo have lost contact online. We can only communicate through phone calls for now!”

People in various countries suddenly realized that they could no longer secretly access Huaguo’s network.

In the past, accessing Huaguo’s network was as leisurely as strolling in a garden, but after the nationwide replacement of the chip ID card in Huaguo, it became impossible to maintain secrecy and anonymity, except through official channels and authorized access to Huaguo’s network.

In other words, they had lost their surveillance over Huaguo’s network!

All their agents in Huaguo became completely ineffective! If they wanted to relay messages from inside Huaguo, unless they resorted to the oldest method of meeting in person and using paper, it was simply a pipe dream to try to communicate through unofficial network channels or phone calls!

At the same time, hackers from various countries also realized this reality.

No matter how top-notch these hackers were, at this moment, trying to illegally infiltrate Huaguo’s network could only result in them staring dumbfounded at the words “Unknown Network Link Failure.”

When did Huaguo’s technology and network reach such a high level?!

This was the unanimous voice of all those who had suffered defeat while attempting to illegally access Huaguo’s network.

And at this moment…

Huaguo’s second wave of bombs continued to strike. Huaguo’s foreign affairs announced internationally that Huaguo would implement the “Huaguo Overseas Certificate” abroad. This certificate was a derivative of the Huaguo chip ID card and was introduced to open a green channel for certain special commercial products, allowing the purchase of classified goods. It was equivalent to a purchasing voucher.
