Chapter 195: Chen Lu's Reason
"The President of the United States? Why do you want me to ・・・・・・" Captain America didn't expect Chen Lu to make such a proposal, he was born as a soldier and never thought of becoming the national leader of the United States since he was born, he has always just planned to protect the United States in his own way, and never thought of involving political work.

"I'm just an ordinary soldier, how can I be the president of the country? What's more, the government didn't just designate me as a traitor, so where would anyone trust and support me! ”
Chen Lu stretched out a finger and shook it, interrupting Captain America's questioning and said: "There are many more people who support you than you think, and I dare to assert that as long as you come forward to give a speech now, you can immediately gather more than a million people who trust you." Don't underestimate your influence, Captain, for most Americans, you are much more trustworthy than the government. The riots are only because you are still missing, and your supporters have to remain silent when no one is leading them. Once you appear in the public eye, the situation in the United States will change dramatically. ”
Chen Lu's remarks are not to praise Captain America, but in the minds of the American people, he, the representative of the American spirit, does have unparalleled appeal. Not to mention that in the New York War, he was able to pull nearly 100,000 U.S. troops to the death with a single speech, and in the original "Captain America" series of movies, he also had a precedent of mobilizing S.H.I.E.L.D. against the World Security Council and leading a team of superheroes to protect the escape of government officials. In this turbulent time, if the American people were to pick a leader they would trust, Captain America would undoubtedly be the one with more than 50 percent of the votes.
As long as Captain America is willing to drag ordinary people into the water, then the whole situation will change dramatically.
"So why do I need to be the president of the United States and serve this rotten government?" Captain America questioned Chen Lu, according to Chen Lu, whether he is the president of the United States or not, there will be no shortage of people who support him. And the reason why Captain America is needed for the presidency is nothing more than wanting to use his influence to maintain the current US government.
As a result, Chen Lu responded without thinking: "Because you need it!" Perhaps you are right, the current US government is decaying to the brink of destruction, but there is no regime worthy of replacing it in its place. If you don't help it, then the future America will either become anarchy or a mutant regime that will become a global public enemy. No matter how corrupt he is, he is the key to stabilizing American society, so it needs your influence, and you need it to continue to run the United States. ”
Captain America immediately realized the embarrassment of his situation, and indeed Chen Lu was right, a Captain America who does not support the government may be able to make a large number of American people support him, but superheroes alone can never run a country well. Those filthy politicians, they do things that are despicable, but they are necessary for the peace and stability of the United States.
After all, no one knows how to run America better than these politicians.
"Now you understand?" Looking at Captain America, who remained silent and clenched his fists, Chen Lu reminded knowingly.
Captain America finally let out a long sigh, shook his head in discouragement, and said, "Damn, you're right. I know what the American people need, but will the government that has just pushed superheroes into the abyss be willing to accept me as an 'insurrectionist'? ”
"Hehe, you just have to try it to see how quickly those government officials turn their faces. As I said, they also need a president who can stabilize the hearts and minds of the people, and you are the best candidate. As long as you are willing to cooperate with them, I guarantee that the next official press conference will be a government declaration of your rehabilitation. There are only a handful of ways they can fake your guilt, but there are thousands of ways to prove that you are a good person! You can rest assured. ”
"It's true that they don't need faces at all." Captain America also joked, which also meant that he had fully accepted Chen Lu's plan.
"Alright, now that I'm done, I'll go back to my business. Do what you think is right, Captain. At this point, Chen Lu also felt that he didn't need to say anything more, and before Captain America had time to keep him, he turned around and left, disappearing without a trace in an instant.
"You're done?" Flickering, who had been forgiven from beginning to end, spread his hands helplessly and said, "If he wants to go anywhere, I don't mind giving him a ride." ”
Of course, this kind of thing is unnecessary, and after Chen Lu decided to stay away from Captain America, a Sterk Industries helicopter gunship was told in front of his eyes. The helicopter's hatch slowly opened, and Wanda, the Scarlet Witch as a guard, was on the seat to welcome Chen Lu's return.
"Looks like everything is going well?" Wanda glanced at Chen Lu's expression and asked in a crisp voice.
"He has no reason to refuse." Chen Lu replied nonchalantly as he boarded the helicopter.
Seeing that Chen Lu patiently answered her question, Wanda continued to ask her question: "Okay, you know, I don't really understand why you want Captain America to take the presidency. Surely he should be able to do it, but wouldn't it be better to let the U.S. government collapse like this? ”
Chen Lu laughed out loud as if he had heard a funny joke, and instead of directly stating his intentions, he asked Wanda rhetorically, "Do you really think Captain America is up to the job of president?" Are you sure that letting him lead the U.S. government will make things better, not worse? ”
Wanda put her finger to her mouth and thought about it in a cute posture, and finally looked defeated and frowned, and said, "To be honest, Captain America would be a good team leader, but definitely not suitable to be a national leader." He ・・・・・・ too idealistic. ”
"That's right, because he's the epitome of the American spirit." Chen Lu slapped Wanda's palms twice in a mocking manner as if teaching children to study, and continued to guide her to think and said: "But those things are only suitable for propaganda and not for practice, unless Captain America can willingly be a political puppet for American politicians, otherwise ・・・・・・"
"He'll understand what reality is like."
