Chapter 361 Slap in the Face_2
"Even the youngest of us is over seventy years old, and the oldest is over a hundred and thirty. We all know what Huaxia was like decades ago. At that time, there were only four hundred million, maybe even less, now there are one and a half billion people. Losing a mere hundred thousand or so is insignificant…" Paused for a second, the elderly in the late stages of Innate said indifferently.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

Finally, the countdown to the demolition of the Qingyun Building began.
Tens of millions of netizens across the country were watching this video.
Lin Yun was staring closely at the video, cold light flashing in his eyes, anger welling up in his heart.
Though he had decided to abandon the Qingyun Building, the sight of it about to be blown up stirred fury inside him.
As one of the Innate powerhouses of the Sky Group had said, the building was built during the early stage of his rise, into which he had poured a lot of effort. For this, he had even been willing to purchase resources at a slower pace, and to slow down his own development.
His attachment to the Qingyun Building was no longer just about its value of hundreds of billions, or even trillions of Huaxia currency.
"Boom——"
Finally, in the video, a series of explosions resounded.
"It's said that because of the structure of the Qingyun Building, the explosives used this time are enough to destroy five buildings of this size. The authorities hope to completely destroy the Qingyun Building in one blow, without needing a second round of explosion. I'm curious to see what such a scene will look like — an explosion of this scale.
This move by the authorities shows a strong stance against shoddy construction. This is a turning point, from then on, everyone's sense of security concerning their houses will significantly improve..."
In the video, an excited host was rapidly narrating.
"Huh?"
However, when the host turned his head and looked at the distant scenery in the video, he was shocked.
The sound of the explosions was indeed deafening, and there was a lot of dust, but through the dust, one could vaguely see that the Qingyun Building didn't collapse completely like in previous cases of buildings being demolished.
"What's going on?"
"What happened?"
"The Qingyun Building didn't collapse?"
"Did the explosives fail?"
Many netizens also noticed this and expressed their astonishment.
They had heard that the super-large Qingyun Building was going to be demolished, and most of them had specifically searched to watch videos of building demolitions. However, something seemed off.
"Didn't they say that the explosives could destroy five buildings of this size?"
"Didn't they say the authorities wanted to do it in one go without needing a second round of explosives? I see, this 70-plus-story Qingyun Building doesn't seem to have collapsed even a single floor…"
"Were these explosives of poor quality?"
Some people were raising questions online.
Finally, the dust cleared, and the Qingyun Building appeared clearer in viewers' eyes. Indeed, the Qingyun Building hadn't collapsed as people had imagined. There were some holes blown open by the explosives, but it still stubbornly stood there without a single floor collapsed.
"The Qingyun Building is awesome! I told you, there was nothing wrong with the Qingyun Building!"
"Damn it, I've been cheated. I said, the renovation of the Qingyun Building had been done so well. I've never seen such a good refurbishment. How could there be any problem with the quality? I managed to grab a unit in the Qingyun Building the day before yesterday, and it's all gone now. My beautiful house is ruined…"
"I said, the products of Qingyun Company are all high-tech. The Qingyun Building is just the same. What's the big fuss about building more than 70 stories in just over a month? As a matter of fact, the quality of the Qingyun Building was very good, it didn't collapse even under five times the explosives!"
Immediately, all sorts of comments exploded on the internet, expressing anger.
Most of these people were those who had grabbed some units in the Qingyun Building. There were a total of 560,000 of these people, a frightening number. Once they joined forces, they could exert a terrifying power on the internet.
No one knew better than them how well the Qingyun Building had been renovated.
However, since the authorities had claimed that there was a problem with the quality of the Qingyun Building, and most of them were not professionals, plus time was short, they could not make a judgment and felt compelled to leave the Qingyun Building without a word.
After all, the authorities were not going to confiscate the Qingyun Building, but planned to blow it up.
They thought that if there was really a problem with the quality of Qingyun Building, the authorities would not do this, right?n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Especially given how large the Qingyun Building had become.
Now, even five times the explosives hadn't managed to knock down the Qingyun Building, causing them to explode with anger.
In this era, housing was a great pressure for many people. No one could understand how excited they were when they secured such a great unit. No one could understand how heartbroken they were when they found out that these houses would be blown up.
Now, all of these had turned into anger.
"Now, the economy of Huaxia is quite distorted, supported entirely by the housing market. I think the authorities have certainly heard that the Qingyun Company intends to sell those houses at one thousand yuan per square meter to people.
Afraid that the housing market would collapse, and therefore affect the overall economy of Huaxia, they have seized Qingyun Company and blown up the Qingyun Building. It's despicable."
A netizen angrily commented.
"Uh..."
The host in the video was also very embarrassed. He hadn't expected such a gap between the real scene and his imagination. As he looked at the many angry comments appearing quickly on some of the screens in front of him, he had a feeling that he might have caused trouble with his words, causing him to quietly curse himself.
