The board meeting was in an uproar.
"An apology? Apologize to the Chinese? Do you realize how damaging this would be to the group's reputation?"
"Comprehensive collaboration? What about our existing pipelines? What about the tumor department?"
"This is too aggressive! The shareholders will never agree!"
Li Gaoyang waited for the noise to subside and played his last card: "Ladies and gentlemen, this isn't the first time we're apologizing, and I'm sure you all remember the dimensionality reduction impact of K Therapy, right? Do we really want to go through that again? Now, we have two paths: one is to keep hiding behind Horton, weathering an ever-growing storm until the ship is wrecked; the other is to courageously step forward, admit to some past mistakes, lead the transformation, and become the builders of the bridge between the old world and the new."
