"Press conference, it's officially begin—"

"Welcome to the media to participate in this press conference hosted by the Chinese government, the main purpose of this press conference is to explain the playground video that went viral on the Internet three days ago......

Zheng Zhu slowly stood up from his seat, cleared his throat, and continued: "I believe that the audience who is watching this press conference is also very curious, so on behalf of the Huaxia government, I will explain to you the ins and outs of the whole incident." ”

"The so-called 'playground incident' is actually a joint operation between the Chinese government and Mr. Yan Xiuze, who is next to me, to arrest a terrorist organization......

"And this Mr. Yan Xiuze is one of my country's top secret programs...... the superpower cultivated by the 'Super Soldier Project'."

Countless cameras were aimed at Yan Xiuze, who was still sitting in his seat, and the live broadcast video also gave him a big close-up, and in desperation, Yan Xiuze had to purse his lips and smile.

After a brief explanation, Zheng Zhu exhaled lightly, nodded at the major media, and said slowly: "The following is the free time to ask questions." ”

In an instant, the spokespersons of hundreds of media raised their right hands almost at the same time, Zheng Zhu pretended to pick them up, and stretched out his hand to point to a young woman in the first row: "This one from Huaxia Daily, come." ”

The young woman seemed to have expected it, stood up unhurriedly, and said calmly: "May I ask Mr. Yan Xiuze, is the person with superpowers in the playground video three days ago really you?" ”

Yan Xiuze replied: "Yes, it is indeed me. ”

"Did you really participate in a special arrest operation at that time, as the spokesman just said? Why did you choose to be in a crowded playground? ”

"It is indeed a special operation against a terrorist organization that I have worked with the government...... As for why it was chosen in the amusement park, this is just a mature consideration based on reality, and the specific analysis report will be published on the relevant website after the press conference. ”

Everything is exactly the same as the previous rehearsal backlog.

"Well...... This, yes, Tiandu Daily ...... "Zheng Zhu completely ignored the raised hands of several authoritative foreign media who were about to squeeze to the stage, and directly named a middle-aged man with glasses in the second row.

"So, Mr. Yan Xiuze, what kind of opportunity did you mutate into a superpower?" The man in glasses asked, holding on to the frame.

"This currently involves some government secrets, I can't disclose them for the time being, but when the time comes, these top-secret documents will be gradually declassified, and please be patient."

"Mr. Yan Xiuze, can you show your superpowers in public?"

Zheng Zhu very cooperatively took a wooden stick the thickness of his forearm from the staff on the side, and Yan Xiuze also cooperated to use the air blade to cut it off.

"Wow......"

Not only the entire press conference, but even the audience in front of the TV and the computer were stunned by this magical scene. Although doubts immediately appeared on the Internet, most people still relied on their own reason to believe this scene, after all, the heads of the Huaxia government are not fools, how can they damage the credibility of the government in order to create a lie that is easy to debunk.

"Cut...... Nothing has changed? The masked man trapped in the sofa stretched, obviously very dissatisfied with Yan Xiuze's speech so far: "It's completely official...... Hmph, that's a disappointment for me. ”

But what he said was not wrong, until now, Yan Xiuze had repeated the answers that had been prepared a long time ago, word for word, looking like a marionette.

Again, all the way so far...... There was no mess yet, Zheng Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, and thought so in his heart.

The man with glasses also took out the last question prepared in advance and read it aloud:

"Mr. Yan Xiuze, as the first superhero in Huaxia, will you always stand on the side of justice and become a superhero who fights against violations and crimes, protects the interests of the people, and protects world peace?"

Yan Xiuze lowered his head and kept silent.

The press conference suddenly became a little quieter.

Zheng Zhu poked Yan Xiuze, who seemed to have lost his soul, and muttered in a low voice: "Eh! What do you ask? Forgot the words? ”

At the end, Yan Xiuze raised his head suddenly, stood up from his seat, looked serious, and said categorically:

"No!"

Glasses reporter: "??? ”

Zheng Zhu: "Huh? ”

Media: "......"

Su Shaoqing, who was originally leaning on the door frame of the press conference, was so shocked that he dropped all the cigarettes in his hand on the ground.

Xiao Mo, who was sitting in the dormitory and watching the live broadcast on the computer, directly sprayed the soda he had just drunk onto the screen!

Not only them, but all the viewers who were guarding in front of the live broadcast looked confused......

"Wait...... Wait a minute......" Zheng Zhu pulled Yan Xiuze's clothes and said in a low voice: "This is a live broadcast, don't me!" ”

"I don't have it......," Yan Xiuze said helplessly.

"In the past few days, Mr. Yan Xiuze has just recovered from his injuries, so he may ......" Zheng Zhu barely squeezed out a smile, and was about to explain a ...... or two.

"I'm not sick, can you listen to me explain first?" Yan Xiuze shook off Zheng Zhu's arm and snatched the microphone in front of him.

"Hey, hey." After testing the volume of the microphone, Yan Xiuze continued:

"Friends from the media, the audience and friends who are staying in front of the live broadcast screen at this time, I am Yan Xiuze."

"First of all, I want to say sorry to the press spokesman next to me for wasting the manuscript he carefully prepared for me." After speaking, he glanced at Zheng Zhu.

Uncle begged to be spared...... Zheng Zhu couldn't wait to bury his head under the table, there was such a big live broadcast accident, Yan Xiuze, this kid, also deliberately shook out the matter of preparing the manuscript in advance, I really don't know how he will be punished when he goes back.

"Whoever is in public always expects to show his best side to outsiders, and therefore carefully hides his perhaps more real corners, after all, people yearn for good things, and in this case, it is natural to selectively let others only know the good aspects of themselves......"

"This is true of ordinary people who can be seen everywhere in daily life, and as a public figure, it is natural that they will cherish their feathers more...... But correspondingly, public figures are actually much more difficult than ordinary people when it comes to 'hiding the truth'. Living in the spotlight, it is difficult for them to say that they can have an absolutely safe and private space - of course, I also understand that as a public figure, it is actually very fair to enjoy the resources of fame that ordinary people cannot have, and turn to accept the supervision of the people. ”

"At the same time, these public figures also bear the responsibility of being moral role models, but in fact, these celebrities who are regarded as role models by ordinary people do not seem to really shoulder the responsibility of educating the public, but there are frequent scandals exposed ......"

"Every time there is a celebrity cheating, taking drugs, or foreign politicians actually colluding with a consortium such news, people always sigh or curse, and even disbelief, it turns out that such a perfect celebrity who lives in the clouds also has such an ugly side......"

"And what they tend to overlook is that even the most well-known public figures are in fact indistinguishable from ordinary people, eating about the same meals and living in houses made of steel and concrete...... Those so-called public figures, in essence, are just as human beings as everyone watching the live broadcast. ”

"Even a mutated superpower like me can't live forever without eating or drinking...... In fact, we are all of the same kind. ”

"We are not gods, and it is impossible for us to have divinity...... Like you, as one of our kind, we also have the same bad roots in human nature, and we also have negative emotions such as selfishness, greed, fear, and sadness. ”

But why is it that you must have higher moral standards and a more standardized code of conduct, even though you are the same kind of person...... What about restraining so-called public figures? ”

"And...... It's not just some shortcomings...... Yan Xiuze took a breath and continued: "Public figures, their advantages seem to have been infinitely magnified by people. ”

"It's a natural thing to do your job well, but if some traffic stars insist on filming, fans will often sigh at their efforts, which is really unprecedented...... Every time I see this, I always wonder if hard work is not something that everyone has experienced. Or is it that among the media friends present, which one has not worked overtime? ”

"So, having said all that, I just think that whether the strengths or weaknesses of a public figure are infinitely magnified, it doesn't seem to be a normal thing, it is for everyone."

After Yan Xiuze finished speaking, he didn't pay attention to everyone's sluggish expressions, but lowered his head, thought carefully for a while, organized his language, and then raised his head and said, "Back to myself." ”

"Just now, this media friend from Tiandu Daily asked me a question...... As the first superhero of Huaxia Kingdom, will he always stand on the side of justice and become a superhero who fights against illegal crimes, protects the interests of the people, and protects world peace......"

"I'm sorry, but I can't make any promises...... The title of hero is too heavy for me......"

"Before I became a superpower, I was just an ordinary senior who was unemployed after graduation and I didn't even get a decent job......"

"On weekdays, I'm also an inconspicuous ordinary person, and my hobbies are just playing games, reading novels, chasing a few anime, and so on...... Except for a little speculation about life and a little cleverness in life, there is nothing to praise at all. ”

"But I am such an ordinary person, but in just a few hours, I have experienced the transformation from an ordinary person to a superpower...... Could it be that from now on, I will become a super hero who takes the world as his own responsibility and world peace as his own responsibility? ”

"I'm sorry, I can't."

"If you look at it from the perspective of individual force alone, I did go ahead of everyone."

"But if you measure it by the breadth of my heart, there are still countless people in this world who have left me far behind, and there are still such and such shortcomings in my character, which cannot be perfectly made up for at once."

"So I can't tell you against my heart that I will become a super hero who is dedicated to the public and completely abandons personal interests, which is too difficult for me now."

"But-" Yan Xiuze changed his words, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "I have to say, I do fall in love with the super hero profession a little." ”

"In the process of fighting crime and saving the weak, I seem to get a sense of satisfaction that I have never felt before, which makes me think that maybe I have the potential to grow into a real super hero......"

"But I hope you understand something...... I chose this path not for any noble purpose, but simply because I derive long-lost moral satisfaction from it...... and the heart, peace like never before. ”

"I'm doing it just for myself."

"A senior once said to me that everyone has their own mission to accomplish, but before we can complete this mission, at least we ......"

"At least we ...... There are options for both. ”

"This is my own and carefully considered mission."

"With such a selfish belief, I will learn how to be a qualified superhero...... I just hope that you don't expect too much from me, but please keep an eye on ......."

"I will try my best to do the job I recognize!"

"That's what I want to say." Yan Xiuze exhaled lightly and bowed deeply to everyone present: "Above." ”

The scene of the press conference was still quietly audible, and for a long time, everyone was immersed in Yan Xiuze's words just now, and it was difficult to come back to their senses.

I don't know who took the lead, the applause was like a thunderbolt exploding at the scene, and then it seemed to have played some interlocking reaction, and the applause in the entire hall was thunderous!

"This kid ......" Zheng Zhu looked helplessly at Yan Xiuze, who was already sitting next to him, and applauded gently.

Not only at the scene, but also many viewers sitting in front of the live broadcast, and even in many large squares with live broadcast public screens, countless people cheered like a tsunami!

The masked man who was far away in the dark room also stood up at this time, slowly stretched, hummed the folk song of an unknown country, and slowly left the room.

……

"Zheng Ju ......" A staff member silently walked to Zheng Zhu's side and whispered in his ear: "The fryer on the Internet is gone!" Posts about Yan Xiuze are flying all over the sky. ”

"Fryer?" Zheng Zhu's eyes widened: "Then why don't you quickly organize the relevant departments to delete the post and report to me!" ”

"No......" The staff shook their heads and whispered, "Most of them are praise!" ”

"Positive reviews?" Zheng Zhu was stunned.

"They are all boasting that Yan Xiuze is true and sincere...... Like, it seems that there is no need for the water army that we have prepared in advance to wash the floor! ”

Zheng Zhu blinked his eyes and muttered in a low voice, "What a hell......"

Just when there was applause at the press conference, a fat man who looked to be one hundred and sixty or seventy pounds stood up from the media seat and shouted at Yan Xiuze on the stage: "Mr. Yan! Mr. Yan! I'M A CONTRACTED REPORTER FOR THE STEAM NEWSLETTER AND HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU! ”

"Huh! You can't ask questions without permission! Zheng Zhu hurriedly stood up and stopped the fat man, and then became a little strange: "When did I invite a reporter from STEAM EXPRESS to the press conference......"

"It's okay, you ask." Yan Xiuze said with a smile.

The fat man was a little out of breath because he was too excited, and after calming down, he took the microphone and said seriously: "Mr. Yan Xiuze, may I ask what is your nickname?" ”

"Outside...... Nickname? Zheng Zhu was directly shocked.

"yes, don't most superheroes have a nickname?"

"Actually, I've thought about this question for a long time." Yan Xiuze grinned.

How did I not know? Zheng Zhu was stunned again.

"I'm racking my brains when I think of a cool name...... Listen up......"

Yan Xiuze jumped to the center of the front desk at this time, took off his sunglasses, and revealed his weird white eyes......

"My name is ......"

"Eye of the Storm!"
