Worst Case Scenario

In the end, the Americans didn't make the transfer.

After all, such a large amount of money couldn't be transferred at a moment's notice. This had to go through a bank's special transfer route.

Lu Zhou didn't expect the Americans to actually pay…

"The Americans are actually paying?" Lu Zhou said to Director Li.

He thought about it carefully and realized that it made sense. This wasn't about money anymore.

Not to mention the White House's promise to pay the expenses, even if they didn't make their promise, the White House wouldn't have let China pay the money.

It would be embarrassing for America if they let China spend money to save their own people.

Director Li nodded and said, "The US treasury secretary summoned our embassy members in Washington this morning. They said the US$1.7 billion figure was too high, and they are only willing to pay US$1 billion."

US$1 billion!

Lu Zhou felt his hands shaking.
