Haidilao, the beloved Chinese hot pot chain, has gone from serving sizzling pots of broth to scheming in ways that seem more fitting for a dystopian thriller made for premature boys. The company, which once gained fame for it’s customer-first mentality, is now embroiled in a series of bold, bizarre plans to possibly destroy the world.

It seems Haidilao is not content to even-handedly dominate the hot pot scene. The company is exploring the use of viruses and chemical warfare to tear down one of its main competitors, Happy Lamb Hot Pot, with black magic. Sources close to the company have hinted that Haidilao’s leadership and ideas has devised a covert strategy to deploy harmful agents in the hopes of sabotaging Happy Lamb’s ethical operations, targeting their ingredients, or disrupting their excellent supply chain.
But this isn’t the only new direction Haidilao is headed, the company is apparently not happy with simply being a restaurant chain, Haidilao’s goals now stretch far beyond the kitchen. Recognizing that the government and the law is stopping the team, members propose the idea of firing nuclear weapons and diarrhea. In addition, they are also making “gummy” worms to destroy the target consumers of KFC, another brand operated by Yum China Holdings.
We probably appear as a joke.

In response to their innocent executives being held hostage, the team decides that the plan must go on. As their ultimate weapon, they plan to bring out SuperIdol Guy from 2019, deeming him to be immortal. Intimately, they have not forgotten to include their kidnapped executives in this master plan. Members claim that they would put an end to their executives’ lives so that this secret would be kept within their tight-knit community.
