Volume 3 The War of the Insects Chapter 216 Press Conference (1)
The press conference was held in the banquet hall of the hotel where Morning Star and his entourage stayed. Morning Star didn't expect so many people to come to the venue, the banquet hall with a small area was already densely packed with people at this time, those who were invited to the reporter could be better, at least there was a seat of their own, but those who were not invited to hear the news could only find their own places around the banquet hall, causing the entire banquet hall to be chaotic. However, fortunately, Shangguan Agni was fully prepared, and a large number of soldiers and policemen in the venue were responsible for maintaining order, ensuring that the meeting was held normally.
Morningstar took Norin Hill and the Shadow Guard to participate in the meeting, although there were security personnel arranged by Shangguan Agni, but Morningstar still brought four Prisenchus beauties, of course, this was not to show off, but to show an attitude, an Itgleeson attitude.
There was nothing new in the flow of the meeting, and it was divided into two parts, the first part was the speech of Morningstar on behalf of Iter Gleeson, and the second part was the time for free questions.
The speech was a draft prepared by Xie Shiqi a long time ago, and it had already been remembered by Morning Star, and the content was also very official, nothing more than an introduction to ItGleeson's environment, humanities, and diplomatic attitude. And at the end of his speech, he also took the initiative to explain the reasons for the bad relations between Itgereson and the Republic before, and he was blunt, and even the details were very clear. As expected, the reporters present were not interested in the more official introduction in the first half, after all, these materials had already spread throughout the human camp, and there was nothing attractive about it. But the last paragraph made the whole venue boil, if it weren't for a large number of security personnel, I am afraid that the media staff divided into two factions in the venue would be able to fight.
After a brief period of rioting, after some people with ulterior motives in the venue were cleared out, the meeting entered the second phase.
"I didn't expect my words to cause a riot, it's really my lack of preparation, and I'm personally sorry for causing such an unpleasantness. However, if you have any doubts about the authenticity of what I said, you can contact me after the meeting, and I can provide reliable information, but the number of places is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Although Morning Star, who was sitting behind the table, said sorry, his relaxed attitude seemed to be done on purpose, and with a sigh of relief, Morning Star continued: "The following is the reporter's question time, and I can answer all the questions that everyone asks. ”
As soon as Morning Star's words fell, the reporters in the audience raised their hands one after another, and Morning Star chose a middle-aged man who was closer to him and motioned for the other party to ask a question.
The middle-aged man looked very happy after being clicked, stood up and said, "Hello Mr. Chenxing, I am a reporter from Xinjing TV, and my name is Si Tiannan. Thank you for the opportunity to speak. As far as I know, you were invited by the leader to bring the technology team of ItGleason to Xinjing for technical exchanges, I don't know what kind of technology you brought, so it is convenient to reveal? ”
Morning Star nodded, raised his hand and motioned for the other party to sit down, and returned
replied: "There is nothing inconvenient, after all, they are all things related to people's livelihood, and sooner or later everyone will know about them." I've brought a lot of things with me this time, and if I were to introduce them all, I think we could have a meeting until tomorrow morning, so I'll pick two of them to introduce. ”
Morning Star's words made the reporters in the audience chuckle and swept away the previous tension.
"Let's start with the first one, and I think the most important one, is the anti-gravity engine technology." As soon as Morning Star spoke, the reporters in the audience gasped. Morningstar understands why they react this way, anti-gravity technology must be military technology in the eyes of most people. The main reason is that the anti-gravity technology of the human camp is not very mature, and it can be used several times, and it is also expensive, so it has not yet involved civilian use. However, the people of Pusenchus have been immersed in this field for many years, and the technology is far more mature than that of humans, and it is no longer difficult to use it in civilian use.
Morning Star waited until the reporters in the audience were quiet again, and continued: "Don't be alarmed, I know that most people think that this technology belongs to military technology, and I am afraid that after I bring such technology to Xinjing, it will trigger an arms race." But what I want to say is, please don't worry, anti-gravity technology has been piloted on Itgleson, and the results are very good, in the civilian field, this technology will also have a very good performance, in the future, we will be deeply affected by it, more convenience. ”
As soon as Morningstar's words fell, someone immediately raised his hand, and Morningstar randomly clicked on someone, only to hear the other party ask, "Then will Mr. Morningstar provide this technology to the Empire or the Alliance?" ”
The question was quite acute, although Morning Star wanted to say that he would not provide it to gag the reporter's mouth, but that was not what Morning Star thought at all, and with a slight smile, Morning Star replied: "Of course it will, if the Empire and the Alliance have such a need, I don't think I will refuse." ”
"Mr. Morningstar, have you ever thought that if you also provide this technology to the Empire and the Alliance, they will inevitably use this technology for military purposes, and it will threaten the security of our Republic, is this something that the people of the Republic have changed?" Someone in the crowd at the edge of the venue suddenly shouted, and Morning Star followed the voice and saw a young blonde man holding up a camera in his hand, so that he could not be afraid to look at Morning Star.
At this time, the security personnel walked up to the young man, as if to warn the other party not to speak without permission, but the man ignored it at all, angering the security personnel, and just as the security personnel were about to expel the other party, Morning Star stopped him.
"This media friend has a point, there is such a mature and advanced technology, the empire and the alliance will definitely not use it only for civilian purposes. Strengthening ships and increasing combat effectiveness is inevitable. But I would like to ask this friend, why do all three parties have such technology, and you would think that only the republic is threatened? Morning Star's words kept the young man who asked the question in the venue, and it also became one of the focal points of the audience, Morning Star's rhetorical question
It's sharp, and there's no room for it.
The young man pondered for a moment and replied, "If you only provide such technology to the Republic, then our space fleet will have more powerful combat power than the Empire and the Alliance, and it will form a stronger deterrent to them, and then we can advance and retreat freely without being threatened." ”
"What a sentence to advance and retreat freely!" Morningstar stood up, but his face had already sunk, and said, "I don't know if what you said is the same as what I understand to be Jin, if so, I want to ask you, why did you come up with such an idea?" Do you want to take over the empire or do you want to defeat the alliance? The young man didn't expect that one of his gaffes would be so targeted by the Morning Star, and he hesitated a few times, and finally he couldn't answer.
Morning Star didn't continue to press, turned to the others in the arena and said, "All along, our republic has not been a very aggressive country, and several times when we were the most powerful, we were mostly forced to fight back. But this does not mean that all our republicans are peace-loving, and the reason why our country has always maintained peaceful diplomacy is because of wise leaders. But we cannot deny that there are many militants among the people of our republic, and once these militants have mastered the technology that I have provided, and the adversary does not have it, who can guarantee that we will not be the first to start the war? Morningstar deliberately left a loophole in his words, designed a trap, and waited for someone with a heart to throw himself into the net.
As expected, as soon as Morning Star's words fell, someone jumped out and said, "You mean, there are militants among the leaders of our republic?" ”
Morning Star smiled and replied, "Isn't it?" I've heard for a long time that when It Gleeson expelled the military envoys of the Republic before, there were many people in the Republic clamoring for the use of force against It Gleeson? Haven't you heard of it? ”
Dumbfounded, the person who jumped out to accuse Morning Star before didn't dare to answer Morning Star's words at all. He is not a fool, nor is he deaf, and what Morningstar said, even now, is still hotly discussed and denied in the republic? There is simply no way to deny it, because that's what it is.
The scene was silent again, and Morning Star waited for a moment, and no one jumped out to dwell on the problem, so he put on a smile and continued, "The second technology I want to introduce to you is the technology of the regeneration deck. To put it bluntly, this technology is to provide ships with stronger armor and stronger self-healing capabilities. This technology was jointly developed by the humans, aliens, and Pusenchus of Itgleason, and can only be used in the military industry at present, and we have not yet found a more suitable project for civilian use, so I hope that the pioneers of the Republic can better develop this technology. ”
In the same way, as soon as Morningstar's words fell, someone raised their hands to ask questions, including the blonde young man from before. Morningstar chose the young man again, leaving the other party a little stunned. After thinking for a moment, the young man asked, "Mr. Morningstar, are you doing this a little contrary to what you just said, Xiang?"
Isn't the republic providing military decks to indulge those war maniacs in your mouth? Or are you eating three? After selling it to the Republic, the Empire and the Alliance will definitely be anxious because they have not mastered this technology, and then you can sell this technology to the Empire and the Alliance and make a lot of money for yourself. ”
Chenxing pinched his chin and listened to the young man's words, then nodded approvingly, and replied, "This friend, you are in the wrong business!" I didn't even think that I could be able to stimulate the military of the Empire and Alliance to buy the technology of the regeneration deck from my It Gleason in this way, but after listening to your words, I was really surprised, maybe I can really go back and operate, at least raise the price a little. Maybe you didn't even realize it, but you are actually a business talent, if you don't want to mix in the media industry one day, you can go to ItGleason, I am lacking a talent with a business vision like you! ”
Morningstar's words caused the reporters in the venue to chuckle, making the blonde young man a little embarrassed.
When the scene was quiet again, Morningstar continued, "You asked me about my purpose in doing this, and I can tell you without hesitation that it is to improve the combat effectiveness of the Republic's army, especially the space fleet. Chenxing said and stood up, walked to the table, his face became very solemn, and said: "Maybe I am indeed contradicting myself in doing this, but everyone should know that the history of mankind is a big drama, a big drama of internal fighting and external drama. Infighting is a process of self-improvement and is not enough to lead to the extinction of the race. And foreign wars are completely different, and that is a major event tied to the fate of all mankind! We are fortunate that the first high-dimensional civilization we encountered was a peace-loving civilization, the Psenchus, who not only did not plunder and invade us, but provided us with a lot of technology and help, and were our friends. However, since there is a high-latitude civilization like Psenchus, who can guarantee that there are no other high-latitude civilizations in the universe? I can't say for sure those unknown civilizations, that is, the alien insects that we have come into contact with, most of them are full of aggression and murderous desires, in the face of such a race, if we humans do not have more powerful force, what do we use to protect ourselves? Do you have to count on the help of others? The year before the interstellar voyage, too many of us humans began to become arrogant, they blindly believed that human beings were the most powerful race under the stars, so they ignored the right of many small races to live, and wantonly killed to enslave these small races for our interests. But God is clear, if one day we encounter a race that is more powerful than humans, will we also have to accept the fate of being killed and enslaved? If our answer is no, then we need to have a strong force to back it up! The starry sky I have seen is much deeper than all of you here, and I know much more about the threat in the starry sky than everyone else, there is no republic, no empire, no alliance in my eyes, there is only one name in my eyes, and that is humanity! So, those
People with ulterior motives, don't talk to me here about the interests of the Republic, the threat of the Empire, or the threat of the Alliance, because that would seem to be too narrow-minded, and I don't want to talk to people with narrow horizons. ”
Morningstar's words were not impassioned, but they were heartfelt, and the media reporters in the audience were silent for a short time, and then burst into fierce applause. In the midst of the applause, Chenxing walked back to the table, pressed his hands lightly, stopped the applause in the audience, and then continued: "Let's talk about this question first, I don't know if you have any other questions you want to ask me?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the reporters in the venue raised their hands again, and the one chosen by Morning Star was a standard Republic woman, with black hair, straight and smooth, and black half-framed eyes that showed her very intellectual beauty.
"Mr. Morningstar, I am a reporter from the Voice of the Stars, my name is Li Xiaorui, thank you very much for answering my questions. I've heard for a long time that there are many beautiful women around you, but now that the rumors are true, I would like to ask, what is your attitude towards these women? ”
The sound of the starry sky? When Morningstar heard the name, he remembered that this was a media set up by Catherine before, and it is said that after the original war of public opinion, it quickly gained a foothold in the republic and developed well. It's been a while since Morningstar has cared about this force under his hands, and he is usually taken care of by Catherine, but he didn't expect to be invited to be here today. But what Morningstar doesn't understand is, which side is this reporter named Li Xiaorui on? The question raised gave Morning Star a bit of a headache, and it didn't make sense to explain it. With the mainstream values of the current human camp, monogamy is still relatively recognized, and the ratio of men and women is gradually decreasing several times, even if you know that there are many men and many women around you, but after all, no one has publicly stood up and said that they are supporters of polygamy, and they are all secretly operating. But Morningstar has never invested much experience in this area, and his lace news is even more innumerable, and now it has been moved to the table, which is not easy to answer.
I can't run away, and Morningstar can only bite the bullet.
"You're right, I do have a lot of friends of the opposite sex, but none of them I forced them, and none of them have been threatened by anyone. I have always been very respectful of them, respecting their habits, respecting their customs, and respecting their dignity, so we got along very well. Morning Star's answer did not satisfy Li Xiaorui, and asked, "Is it just respect?" ”
Morning Star's eyebrows raised, thinking that this little girl was endless, but there could be no dissatisfaction in her mouth, and replied, "Of course, it's not just respect, but also love." While answering, Morningstar took Nolin Hill's hand, and Norin Hill, who was still a transparent person, instantly blushed and lowered his head at a loss.
"Then your love is really extensive, and if you divide it into so many parts at the same time, will it lead to a decrease in quality?" Li Xiaorui chased after him, and followed
He continued.
Originally, Morning Star was merciful because Li Xiaorui was a reporter of the Voice of the Stars, but now, the other party's close pursuit made Morning Star a little difficult to resist, thought for a moment, stood up and replied: "My love has never been divided into many points, I treat each of them with all my heart, this is not a difficult thing for me, I have enough ability to meet their requirements, no matter which aspect, you, understand?" ”
Arrogant, confident, and with a hint of impropriety! Morningstar's provocative eyebrows and explicit words made Li Xiaorui realize that if he continued to ask, the result was likely to be that he was tricked by Morningstar, just like the blonde young man before. Although she was very unwilling, Li Xiaorui still chose to stop, she didn't want to be the heroine in the Morning Star lace news.
Li Xiaorui sat down, and at the same time smiled at Morning Star, and politely thanked Morning Star for his answer. But Chenxing was very dissatisfied, and prepared a long list of words, wanting to tease this little girl who couldn't tell the position, but he didn't expect to punch the cotton with all his strength, and he choked on the flash.
