Chapter 318: The Great Event II

Subtitle of this chapter: Le Monde that detonated the world

…………………………………………

Why are there so many people on Piccadilly Street?

Because the police in London dutifully fulfilled the orders of their superintendent, and blocked all the hostages released in the legation on this road.

Ordinary people will be a little scared when they see the strips, and even if they are dissatisfied, they will obediently do it.

But were the guests who were able to attend this high-profile diplomatic reception ordinary people?

Most of these hostages are people with status.

"You're just a little police officer, I said do you know who I am?!"

Police Constable, referred to as PC. They are the lowliest level of police.

"Patrol, I won't tell you. Where is your superior, I want to talk to him! ”

Anyone who has watched Hong Kong films knows that the tour is Sergeant - Sand Exhibition.

"Mr. Inspector, won't you let me go? I'm going to 10 Downing Street to report to the Prime Minister! ”

Inspector is the third-to-last rank, and above it is the Chief Inspector, Superintendent, and Chief Superintendent. These people are actually grassroots police forces.

The Commander, Deputy Assistant Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner, and Superintendent make up the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO). They are the real senior police officers.

In all fairness, by the standards of 1921, the speed of the response of the British police cannot be said to be unfast.

Within 30 minutes of receiving the report, they had already surrounded the Japanese Legation in Britain.

If it weren't for the fact that they didn't control the traffic, even if our Master Yuan caught two chickens, he wouldn't have been able to take them out.

It's just that the director gave the order too quickly. So the guests got into a fight with the policemen who blocked the way.

At this time, in 1921, the first man of the British Empire, Sir Holwood, came here.

Then he was confused: "You have good news, no one has died so far, this is good news......"

β€œHAT THE FXCK! THAT'S GOOD NEWS, THESE CHINKS DIDN'T KILL ANYONE BUT STORMED THE LEGATION! ”

"They call themselves the Hibiscus Legion? What is this thing? ”

"What do you say? You repeat! ”

When the Governor learned that the Hibiscus Army had kidnapped two crown princes, two cabinet ministers, and ministers from several countries. If his body is not very good and he has a bit of cardiovascular disease, it is estimated that he will faint, and maybe he will burp directly...... No, it's martyrdom.

Maybe for him, fainting or even dying at this time should be a kind of happiness.

Since he was not sick and would not die, he had no choice but to take over the command as the head of the London police.

By this time, Sir Hallwood, who had been in the system all his life, had realized that his end would not be too good. So the first thing that came to his mind was......

"Get me a number, I'm going to inform the Prime Minister......"

"Smack, smack, slap......"

He was just about to ask the respected Prime Minister Lloyd to help him carry some of the pot, when he saw a strong glow of a magnesium lamp flashing not far away.

"What's going on, where did the journalists come from? How did they get the news so quickly? ”

He saw people, and they saw him.

The two reporters immediately rushed over and asked loudly, "Sir Holwood, we are reporters for Le Monde......"

"Wait a minute, which newspaper are you reporters?"

"We are journalists for Le Monde. Le Monde, founded by Mr. Pulitzer. ”

"Wait a minute, Mr. Pulitzer is...... Are you American journalists? ”

"Yes, yes, we are Le Monde's reporters in the UK, and we came here as soon as we got the news."

"Wait a minute, where did you get the news?"

"Our editor-in-chief's daughter, Miss Emma Pulitzer, was inside the legation, and she called us."

"Your Excellency the Priestess" has not been idle these days. Using her father's name, she summoned all the Le Monde's correspondents from all over Britain to London. These two are nothing more than reporters on the spot.

This is a human preparation.

She bought the most advanced photographic equipment at this time, and rented a high-power transmitter so that she could have direct contact with the headquarters of Le Monde in New York.

At this time, large newspapers and some large enterprises in need had their own telegraph rooms.

This is a material preparation.

Now that the first phase of the "Tai Sui Operation" is successful, she will be able to use the telephone to remotely direct these manpower and material resources to report on the 723 major events.

In this way, we can be one step ahead of the media all over the world, and the icing on the cake is her first-hand interview.

The "priestess" of the SCP Foundation took her first steps towards becoming a world-renowned female journalist.

And without her knowledge, Emma Pulitzer is about to save her family business.

Because in the original timeline, after entering the Great Depression, "Le Monde" encountered operational difficulties. Her father had to sell Le Monde in 1931.

Because Pulitzer Sr. made a will, which stipulated that Le Monde could never be sold. Herbert also hired a lawyer to amend his father's will after a lengthy judicial process.

In the future, Le Monde will be unknown, let alone the gray lady of the New York Times, let alone in other countries. (Author's note: France's second-largest newspaper, also known as Le Monde, has nothing to do with the Pulitzers.) οΌ‰

However, in this timeline, the 723 events will change the fate of Le Monde......

4:15 p.m. ET.

New York, Le Monde Building.

"Bang!"

The editor-in-chief's office was slammed open, and a staff member barged in, waving a telegram in his hand and saying, "Mr. Pulitzer, there's an urgent telegram!" ”

Mr. Herbert Pulitzer was wearing reading glasses and looking through today's Le Monde evening papers. At four o'clock the evening newspapers had almost left the printing house and were ready to start hitting the shelves.

And seeing the sample is one of the daily tasks of most editors-in-chief.

He was taken aback by such a rude behavior, and raised his head very dissatisfied: "What kind of emergency, is it so urgent?" I won't even knock on the door......"

"Mr. Pulitzer, you're really in a hurry!"

"Oh, show me ......"

Mr. Editor-in-Chief looked at the beginning and couldn't help frowning, Emma wouldn't be joking with herself.

However, he immediately remembered the conversation between the father and daughter before parting.

"Dad, if I send an urgent call back, please be sure to believe the above news, those news are true!"

"My good daughter, you can have a good time when you go on a trip, don't always think about the news or something, I don't lack a reporter like you. You're so old, Louie is a good boy......"

"Gee, don't talk about that yet. Will you promise me? ”

"Okay, okay, okay, I promise you. My Miss Reporter. ”

He rushed out of the office without even putting on his coat and yelled at the secretary, "Hurry, hurry, prepare a car for me!" ”

"Yes, yes, Mr. Pulitzer. Where are you going? ”

"Where am I going? Printing houses, of course! Herbert continued, "By the way, you inform everyone, everyone...... Except for the telegraph room, they now have to rush to the printing house. ”

"W-Why is that?"

The editor-in-chief of Le Monde rushed to the elevator at a completely age-appropriate speed, and when he heard the question, he turned his head and shouted: "Because we are going to issue a ...... today"

"Many, many, many extras!"
