Chapter 51: World Focus and Unexpected Troubles

The real ripples spread out that night. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoABC made a special broadcast of Roger's complaint to the U.S. military as urgent news when it aired the evening prime-time news.

As one of the three largest news outlets in the United States, ABC can't just listen to the wind and rain like those online media. Especially on issues that may cause political controversy, they need to repeatedly confirm the correctness of the message before they can broadcast it.

So when ABC broadcast this news, it was much later than the online media, but now no one knows that the news is true and the news is fake.

Therefore, the first reaction of many American people to the news about the lawsuit of the US team is that it is fake, absolutely fake. How could Captain America sue the U.S. government? Someone must be fanning the flames.

Some people also shouted on the Internet to demand strict investigation of the spreaders of rumors. Even several communication agencies have been affected.

ABC, as one of the credible news broadcast media in the United States, only roughly broadcast today's important news at the fastest speed and in the shortest time during the prime time of the evening news, and then entered the special news period.

Many unaware Americans are in front of the television without knowing what is happening.

They only saw the special host, who was usually only responsible for broadcasting major international news, appear on the screen, and he combed his big oily hair only on very formal occasions, and read it in a voice that felt serious and emotionless.

"This station has received the news and will broadcast a special news item here. At 2:10 p.m. today, the New York State Court accepted Steve Rogers' lawsuit, also known as Captain America. ”

The complaint is that Captain America sues the U.S. military for abusing his personal image for personal gain. In the lawsuit, Captain America took the U.S. Department of Defense to court for inaction that allowed the violations. ”

The anchor said solemnly with an expression that seemed to be attending a funeral. The captain's lawsuit does not mention whether the government is required to compensate him financially. There is no clear conclusion on how the whole thing has been. Here, we have invited our special commentator to ......"

What follows is the very boring, unfounded whimsical whims of the TV commentators.

But in the whole of the United States, this time the live news broadcast affirmed the authenticity of the US team's lawsuit, and now the whole network has exploded, saying everything.

"Did the U.S. team really sue the U.S. government?

"The government must have done something sorry for Captain America! We need to support Captain America!"

"Conspiracy! Everything is a conspiracy! Wake up! Comrades and friends. A new round of elections is about to begin, and this is someone attacking the ruling party, and it's all a political conspiracy!"

"I'm telling you! I have a relative who works in S.H.I.E.L.D. He said that in fact, they did not find the US team at all, in fact, only the wreckage of the plane and a skeleton were found at the crash site in the Arctic, and the US team was actually dead a long time ago. "A certain truth party.

"The current American team is fake, and they are pretending to be a trickster named Chris Evans in Hollywood! It started out as an elaborate hoax, and as for what to deceive. I can only say that those who understand will naturally understand, and those who don't understand it will be useless to say it. "The post caused a stir.

"Upstairs the truth!" the melon-eating crowd who don't know the truth.

In addition to these netizens, media around the world have reprinted this important news.

From China's Xinhua News Agency to Guangming.com, Pravda in Russia, The Times in Britain, Le Figaro in France. The eyes of the world are on the United States, on the New York State Legislature.

At this moment, billions of people around the world are watching this lawsuit that has nothing to do with them. On the other side of the ocean in Beijing, China, Brother Zhang, as usual, pulls guests to their destinations. As a native brother in Beijing, bragging is an essential skill.

And the bull that Lao Zhang wants to brag about today has nothing to do with China, but the case of the US team on the other side of the ocean. And the passengers listened with relish.

It can be seen that it is just one night of fermentation, and the news effect of this matter has swelled to such an extent.

Originally, a case, from the trial to the hearing. It's a very, very long process to get to trial.

But because of the peculiarities of Captain Rodgers' lawsuit, and that terrible attention, it was just one night. The New York State Legislature met overnight and made the decision to begin an emergency hearing the next day.

They held a special hearing for Rogers. The judge who heard the hearing was a 20-year veteran judge of the New York State Court.

So Rogers received a summons to attend the hearing the next day on the night of the lawsuit. The U.S. military, on the other hand, was defenseless before.

Even the head of the Political Propaganda Department only knew that he was accused when he watched the ABC news that night. The military was unprepared to attend the hearing as a defendant, and the defendant Defense Department, who was present, also received a summons.

By the time Rogers returned to the New York State Legislature, hundreds of reporters had already gathered. Reporters from all over the world surrounded Rogers with long guns and short cannons.

Hill, who was watching Rogers' every move through the monitor in the S.H.I.E.L.D. building, said with some concern. "Captain, do you think this will work?"

Rogers heard Ciel's worried words from the communicator in his ear, and he said in a reassuring tone. "There may be a lot of things in the world that have changed, and I don't feel used to it because it's different from what I used to be. But politics has not changed over the years. ”

Rogers was a little helpless. "I don't know if it's good or bad, it's as dirty as ever. I don't like it, but sometimes I have to do something. Just as I toured the United States 70 years ago, calling on people to donate money and materials, and calling on young people to join the army. ”

"In the dirtiest way, if Congress wants approval ratings, and the ruling party wants a majority in the next election, then they have to think about public opinion. And the opposition parties will attack the ruling party if they want to take office. And what I've done is to change a lot of people's minds just by telling the truth. Rogers said bluntly.

"I don't deceive the people, and I don't like the people to be deceived by the government. If certain politicians use patriotic signs for personal gain, then they are blaspheming patriots. ”

"I'll tell you the truth, and the rest of Washington is up to you Hill. Rogers hung up the communication.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents around him opened a way for him to capture the reporters who had come to him. Rogers wears a well-fitting black suit with a smile on his face throughout.

He strode through the doors of the state courthouse.

The hearing is not a trial, but only a hearing of the plaintiff and the defendant before the trial. The hearing court is also not a public hearing, but only an inner court. So there are no auditoriums, and naturally there are no reporters.

Opposite Rogers was the black-faced military representative, who had been improvised to make up the numbers. It came so suddenly that the military didn't even have much preparation.

"The plaintiff in this case, Steve Rogers, stated that the military had used his image without authorization. Collect profits in the form of endorsement advertisements, games, movies, and various merchandise. Without the authorization and consent of Rogers himself, and without paying any fees to the plaintiff, it is a serious infringement. Whether the defendant agrees. The old judge in the court asked officially.

"Steve Rogers once ...... in 1941," the military's lawyer hurriedly pulled out a document to refute it.

"Your Excellency, about what the defendant said. We made it very clear in our statement. Captain Rogers' authorization was to require all expenses to be spent on World War II funds. And World War II has been known to have ended for more than 70 years. As Rogers' lawyer, Matt was unflinching to refute the military's arguments.

"This is not a trial, and there is no need for both parties to plead. The judge struck the hammer. Signaling that the parties are now at a hearing.

Over the next thirty minutes, the parties continued to present their cases. But it's basically a formality. The old judge thought with some absent-mindedness. It is not known whether the state legislature has the power to hear the case completely independently.

When all the statements are over, the judge announces. "The Tribunal accepts Steve Rogers' charges against the U.S. military. The Tribunal announced that the first trial would begin on 15 May. With that, the judge struck his hammer and signaled the end of the hearing.

The conclusion of the hearing revealed more useful information to the media, the most crucial point being that the U.S. military's use of Rogers' image was infringing. They didn't get Rogers' authorization, and they didn't pay Rogers a penny all the time.

This puts all the companies that have bought the right to use Captain Rogers' image from the military into an awkward position. Coca-Cola has begun to halt sales of Coke that should have the cover of Captain America's packaging.

And more companies interested in buying the license to use Captain Rogers' image are also deterred by this. The world was also in an uproar over the news.

In the skies over New York City, Peter Parker is on a daily swing looking for criminals. He chatted with Li Jie, who was on the other side of New York City, through the built-in headphones. "So all the captain's souvenirs I bought before were actually pirated, right?"

"In a sense, yes. "There was a man under Li Jie's feet. A drug dealer to be exact. He was caught by Li Jie when he was just selling drugs.

Li Jie took out a packet of drugs from him, ice-blue pills. This thing should be called Paradise Three? He'd destroyed a lot of it when he dealt with the Stanic family.

It seems to be very popular in New York City right now, and even the sales of cocaine and heroin in general have been reduced by this thing.

"Damn it! I've always supported the captain!I thought I was going to buy those things if they were genuine!" Peter Parker's tone sounded annoyed. "I won't buy any more products with Captain America packaging printed on them until I get the official authorization from the captain!"

Peter's attitude actually reflects the attitude of many ordinary Americans towards the captain's support.

While chatting with Lee, Peter discovers a robbery in Queens. A robber with a gun is robbing a convenience store.

He snatched a handful of change from the clerk in the store and ran out.

Peter was a little annoyed today, and he swooped straight down from the height of the ten-story building. Until he was about to land, he used spider silk to pull himself.

Then, by inertia, he scooped up the robber and threw him into the air, dyed red and caught him with a large web of spider silk.

After all this, Peter felt a lot better. He clapped his hands in satisfaction and praised himself. "Well done nice Spider-Man. ”

"How much money did that guy rob you of just now?" Peter clapped his hands and walked into the convenience store, wanting to buy a bottle of Pepsi. He decided to refuse and Coca-Cola from today.

"Spider-Man! Oh, can you sign me? Thank you so much. The convenience clerk was a little excited. Peter casually signed his name on the notebook he handed him, and drew a cute spider head.

"Oh, you said that unlucky guy just now? Actually, he only robbed fifteen dollars, and the ATM money was just taken away by the boss today. And this guy tricked me into opening the ATM under the pretext of exchanging change with me. ”

"He took twenty dollars and wanted to change it, tricked me into opening the ATM, and he snatched fifteen dollars. But he left his twenty dollars at the counter. You see, here it is. The clerk pointed to the twenty dollars on the table.

For some reason, Peter suddenly said a crazy warning when he saw this twenty dollar ticket. I seem to have gotten into a big trouble!
