Although there were some setbacks along the way, fortunately it was not a live broadcast, so the interview ended normally.

When the director shouted "cut" for the last time, the host realized that his entire back was soaked...

Long Yongtu, who had been watching from the side, had several balls of wet toilet paper on his hands...

"My superiors specially sent me here this time because they were worried that you were inexperienced and might be in a bad state or nervous during a long interview."

Long Yongtu looked at Chang Haonan, who seemed to be in high spirits and still in high spirits, and shook his head helplessly:

"Now it seems that I was completely overthinking..."

"When running a business, the key is honesty."

Chang Haonan answered while sorting out the materials he brought with him but didn't use:

“So, I just say whatever I have to say.”

Hearing this, Long Yongtu almost couldn't hold back his expression, thinking to himself that I would never believe you, and finally bit the tip of his tongue hard to hold back his laughter, so he quickly changed the subject:

"I'll host you tonight. On behalf of our Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, I'd like to thank Comrade Haonan..."

"..."

On the other side, Director He Gang from the News Center also came to the host who was almost slumped on the sofa:

"Xiaokang, you did a good job today. Your response was...very timely."

Even if it is not a live broadcast, if the interview is cut off too many times, the final film quality will be greatly reduced.

More importantly, it is impossible to ask the interviewee to cooperate with you to re-record indefinitely.

So, it is best to pass it in one go.

The fact that he was able to stabilize the situation in such a chaotic situation clearly showed that he had very strong professional skills.

The host wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand:

"I feel like today is the end of my hosting career..."

"It's not that it's not that..."

He Gang quickly gave his subordinates psychological support.

In the past two years, many well-known CCTV hosts have gone out to work on their own. The staff is already tight. If a capable host loses his temper because of a program, the loss will be huge.

"Director He."

At this time, Chang Haonan's voice suddenly came from not far behind.

"Mr. Chang."

The two of them stood up quickly.

"I hope that the middle part about the purpose of the prosecution can be fully preserved when it is broadcast."

Today's interview lasted about 45 minutes in total, but when the program was broadcast, after removing the opening and ending credits and advertisements, there was only about 35 minutes of actual content.

Therefore, some unimportant parts will inevitably be cut out.

But Chang Haonan's statement was intended to make a big news, so naturally he couldn't just let anyone delete it.

"This……"

He Gang was immediately sweating profusely.

He suddenly felt that today might be a disaster in his career.

If someone else were the interviewee, then given the level of CCTV, the footage would just be edited out.

However, as a valuable interview subject personally interviewed by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, Chang Haonan's statement still carries considerable weight.

"Boss Chang, the production and broadcast of this program need to be approved by our superiors. At our news center... we can't just make the decision..."

But how could Chang Haonan let the other party just deal with it casually?

"This matter is very important, so... please go and ask for instructions now."

"..."

In short, Chang Haonan's request was finally met.

A few days later, CCTV broadcast the entire interview on Sunday evening.

Only a few minor issues at the beginning and near the end were cut due to time reasons, and all the key parts were retained.

On the same day, Torch Group formally submitted the relevant evidence it had previously collected to two courts in Brussels and Beijing.

The combination of the two immediately sparked the topic.

Originally, the shipbuilding industry, especially the civilian shipbuilding industry, was not very prominent in the world.

However, the interview with Chang Haonan was really too essential.

Especially the part about "I'm suing you for your own good", if it were put in the Internet era in the future, it would have become a famous meme.

More importantly, Chang Haonan was not just talking nonsense.

After the program was broadcast, Torch Group published a long open letter in Chinese, English and French, explaining from a technical perspective why the BOG reliquefaction system could not be directly grafted onto LNG ships using Technigaz liquid cargo tanks.

At the end of the open letter, Chang Haonan specially added a paragraph, saying that Samsung Offshore's behavior is not only an infringement on the interests of Torch Group, but also irresponsible to the entire industry and all mankind. If they continue to act arbitrarily, they will not be blamed for not warning them.

After all this trouble, this matter has basically become a hot topic around the world, especially in China and EU countries -

By the beginning of the 21st century, environmental issues had basically become part of political correctness in Europe.

The Torch Group has been emphasizing terms such as "environmental pollution" and "climate disaster" on various occasions. With the help of some "media public relations fees", it is naturally easy for them to spread.

Anyway, the purpose of cutting in advance has definitely been achieved.

Now the public may not even know what LNG is, but they know that a Chinese company has issued a danger warning...

To be fair, Chang Haonan has done his best by doing what he has done so far.

In particular, the open letter, after obtaining the permission of Hudong Plant, even disclosed a small part of the technical details of the BOG reliquefaction system to explain why this system must be used in conjunction with the relatively conservative Gas-Transport liquid cargo tank.

Logically speaking, even if the Koreans are bolder, they should at least stop and check in the face of such overwhelming public opinion.

After all, if the ship really exploded, they would be the ones who suffered the most.

But at this most critical juncture, an accident happened as expected...

……

Inside the manager's office at Geoje Shipyard.

Yoon Jong-hyun was looking at the meeting minutes on the table in front of him with anger.

"Axi..."

In less than 10 days, LNG ships, a previously unheard-of niche industry, has become the hottest topic on the streets.

At the beginning, Samsung Offshore & Marine was suddenly sued by Torch Group.

In fact, this incident did not surprise him and was nothing worth paying attention to.

As the main person who finalized the LNG design plan, Yin Zhongxian was very sure that his technical team had avoided all the sensitive points in the other party's patents.

The remaining few that are borderline can be easily dealt with by concealing the truth.

But before he could laugh at his opponent's impotent rage, the next combo followed.

For a time, almost the whole world was filled with reports about the possibility of explosion of LNG ships in their shipyards.

The lethality of this kind of thing is still quite large.

Even Samsung Marine's share price was affected.

In theory, Samsung can actually sue Torch Group for maliciously spreading rumors and even manipulating the stock market.

but……

You know your own affairs well.

Most people thought that Chang Haonan's statement "Samsung Marine Engineering has not fully understood the content of our patent" was intended as a mockery.

However, Yoon Jong-hyun felt a little guilty about this...

"Manager Yin."

Looking at Yoon Jong-hyun who was keeping his head down and keeping silent, An Jin-taek, the vice president of Samsung Offshore Engineering, who was sitting opposite him, frowned:

"Can your technical department guarantee the safety of these ships?"

Yoon Jong-hyun opened his mouth.

He wanted to answer truthfully and say that he originally thought he could, but now he is a little unsure...

But if this sentence is spoken, it obviously means that your career will go straight to the grave.

Moreover, there is no place for him in the entire Korean marine engineering... or even in the entire world's marine engineering.

Therefore, Yin Zhongxian finally nodded and said in the most resolute tone possible:

"can."

For a moment, the office fell into an eerie silence.

Of course, Yoon Jong-hyun is no fool.

He knew very well that if something really happened to these ships, it would not just be his own career that would be destroyed.

Therefore, after a brief silence, Yin Zhongxian directly said:

"But President An, I think the key now is the Norwegian side. If they feel there is a risk, we should respect Party A's opinion anyway..."

In his opinion, the rumors outside have spread to this extent, and even the most determined Party A should be unable to sit still.

As long as the Norwegians feel that it is not feasible, whether they ask to cancel the order or change the technical solution, he can save the situation with a completely non-stick pan.

In fact, this idea cannot be said to be wrong.

If it is a normal party A, at this time, they will definitely consider stopping the project and making long-term plans.

But the problem is...

Party A this time is not normal.

The Norwegians' focus is not on these ships at all.

Or rather, they were the happiest after learning that these ships might have fatal flaws.

People came here for the penalty from the beginning.

This time, there is no need to resort to any tricks.

Then, Yoon Jong-hyun heard the answer that made his heart and lungs stop:

"I have already inquired about this."

"Party A means that they fully trust all our decisions and do not need to seek their opinions, as long as the ship can be delivered on schedule."

An Zhenze crossed his legs and stared at Yin Zhongxian with sharp eyes:

“So, Manager Yoon.”

"Let me confirm with you one last time. Can I guarantee the safety of these ships?"
