Chapter 233: Just the Beginning
A mutant statehood event began very early. It was presented in an almost naΓ―ve way by a group of enthusiastic and unthought-out young people like Katie.
It started with a group of young people with a secondary school temperament who tried to change the world in their own way. They unite all the forces they can unite, the seniors who have graduated from Xavier's genius studies.
Katie, Naughty Kids, Ice Blade, Sparkle, Riptide and other young mutants use their sincerity and passion, as well as their whimsical ideas as lobbying capital. It wasn't until the sunspot Roberto Sketta joined in and came up with a viable plan for their plan - buy a country!
Taking this as an opportunity, the ideas of Katie and others began to be realized step by step. Why did Charles and Magneto not think of this method back then? It probably has something to do with the fact that their hearts are too big and their desires are too big.
They all want to change the world in one go, especially Magneto, whose ideas are especially crazy. And that madness and vision made it hard for them to lean down and do something that their back students could do.
And Katie put her stature very low at the beginning, she just wanted to build a home. Not because of power, not because of ambition, just because of a dream.
"I stand here today to make my case to you. It's not show-off or any other provocation. Katie, dressed in a simple black suit, stood on the podium, her hidden hands trembling slightly.
Because under her are thousands of media outlets from all over the world, as well as many staff of diplomatic embassies and consulates working in Beijing. Everyone was shocked by the news break at 6 o'clock Beijing time last night. Many foreign media working in China asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that night to verify the authenticity and specific details of the incident.
At this time, what Lin Yun said to Feng Xi before was verified: We have the mud this time.
In fact, this incident is no longer with mud. Feng Xi felt that it was almost like mixing concrete. The phone of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was blown up, and it was used from all over the world. As a grassroots cadre, Feng Xi didn't know if the red-headed phone on the big guy's desk had also rang all night, but as far as the guess was concerned, it should be about the same.
Therefore, after an evening of urgent consultations with the Spear Bureau and the Tuvalu delegation, it was decided to convene a global press conference at noon the following day.
As the president of Tuvalu, Katie states the purpose of the country and preaches her own ideas.
When Katie stood in front of the stage, all the flashing lights started flashing at her. All the cameras were on her. And almost all the reporters had a thought in their minds: What if the mutant state of Tuvalu was really founded by this girl as the leader?
Then the reporters had a second thought: if this girl was really the leader, maybe the mutants were all kind and harmless.
It must be said that people's first impressions are very important. Katie's appearance is pure and sweet, with neat and well-groomed long chestnut hair, curved eyebrows and big watery eyes. When the corners of the mouth are slightly raised, dimples will come out. No makeup powder, invincible youth. It looks like the girl next door, harmless to humans and animals.
At this moment, a mutant girl who was originally unknown and had even been bullied in the past stood there, preaching her ideas to the audience around the world in a confident tone.
She was a little excited, but she wasn't afraid. Because she knew she wasn't fighting alone. Behind her is the sustenance of the professor, the trust of her peers, and the countless people who yearn for a "home" like her.
"A lot of people have questions, and some people will be skeptical. How did a young girl like me become the president of Tuvalu?" Katie smiled at the camera, relieving her nerves.
"Actually, I don't know the specific reason. It's just that I fell for such an inexplicable reason. I don't think it's because I'm a pretty girl. Katie's words drew a good-natured laugh from the audience.
"Actually, I think if there needs to be a reasonable explanation. I think that's because I, we, share a common ideal. Katie held out a finger.
"Forgive me, I can't say 'I have a dream' to people like Martin Luther King Jr. did. Because the dreams of our predecessors are not exactly the same as ours. β
"Nor can I be here to speak out and demand that the world needs fairness. Because the world itself is not fair. Mutants are not necessarily oppressed, nor are they necessarily oppressed by others. Mutants don't necessarily suffer persecution, and they don't necessarily persecute others. Katie said loudly.
"I think, think, do, and ask for. It's all about building a home. A sheltered place from the wind and rain, a haven for people to warm and rest. And that was all my original idea to drive all of this. β
"I know that the world has all kinds of prejudices against mutants. Some people think we're cancers, think we're cancers. Think that we are the origin of all evil. But I guess a lot of people haven't really come into contact with mutants and haven't really understood us. β
"It's like there's a wall between us, a wall that can't be seen but is real. We are guessing the world on the other side of the wall. The people inside the small wall will tell everyone how dangerous the other side of the wall is. β
Katie's speech became more and more sonorous: "It was as if the other side of the wall was the abyss of the world, the nest of hell. So we hide on this side of our wall all our lives, never daring to look at the other side of the wall. Even if there is laughter and dancing songs from the other side. β
"A Berlin Wall can divide two worlds. But it eventually collapsed. We have pushed the Berlin Wall, why can't we tear down another Berlin Wall in our hearts?"
"Pride and prejudice are the source of the vast majority of the world's woes. All I want is for everyone to let go of their arrogance and face up to their prejudices. The Battle of New York has already shown the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations. We don't have to struggle with infighting!"
"Tuvalu is just a home, a platform, a place for the world to really get to know mutants!"
In a hotel in Central, Hong Kong. Magneto looked at Katie on the TV, and he suddenly felt that he was really old. His mind was far less energetic than that of this young girl.
And he couldn't say that deafening voice in front of the global media. Thinking of this, he glanced at Charles: "It's a good manuscript you wrote for this girl named Katie." β
Professor Charles forced a smile: "Actually, I didn't write this manuscript. β
Magneto: "?" Charles smiled at Magneto's somewhat confused expression, "I think you should have guessed who wrote it." β
Magneto's face was expressionless: "Sure enough, it's a man who can only play tricks." By the way, where did he go?"
The [he] that Magneto refers to is Li Jie. And where is Li Jie? He's presetting conditions for Dimon to activate his abilities. The incident in Beijing is only the beginning, and the United States needs to step up.
For example, arranging a meeting between Donald, the current president's chief thinker, and Captain Rogers.
PS: On the train, ask for a ticket.
Note: Martin Luther King Jr. was a black pastor. He was the leader of the Black Equality Movement in the United States. In Martin Luther King's time, whites were literally above blacks.
