Chapter 42: The WHIH News Front
"Good morning viewers, welcome to the WHIH News Frontline, which will continue to bring you the latest and hottest topics in the world, I'm Kristen Everhardt.
In the wake of the cosmic monster Ligadron that struck Earth and paralyzed an unprecedented global satellite network, it seems that governments are finally coming to a consensus that the monster disaster has become a global problem that needs to be solved urgently.
It is reported that the United Nations General Assembly will convene an emergency special session in the near future to discuss how to deal with the continuous monster attacks, and according to people familiar with the matter, a bill on authorizing the victory team under the command of S.H.I.E.L.D. to deal with the global monster disaster and alien invasion is under consideration.
The team has performed well in the handling of monster disasters in the past, and it seems to be of great use, but all governments of various countries are worried about infringing on their own defense rights, and they are oscillating between the huge disasters caused by monsters and the independence of defense, so there are still doubts about whether the bill will be formally proposed at the General Assembly, and even if it can be raised, whether it can be approved by various countries, international public opinion is generally pessimistic.
Even the public's attitude towards the so-called victory team is ambiguous and mixed. We did some street interviews on this issue, and now let's hear their opinions. ”
"I don't understand, my country's army can completely destroy monsters, why should the victory team intervene? What if they conspire to subvert and sabotage, and who will be held responsible? ”
"I'm rooting for the Victory team, they have the latest and most advanced technology, they're very professional at dealing with monsters, and I'm willing to pay for their taxes. Military? Come on, they're just going to use nuclear bombs, see what they've made of San Francisco, and if they continue to do this, humanity won't be wiped out by monsters, and they will be exterminated first. ”
"I don't know what the use of the victory team is, aren't all the monsters destroyed by Tiga? All we need is Ultraman Tiga. ”
"If you don't use the victory team, those big countries will probably go out of their way to improve their armaments, but I'm afraid that when there are no monsters, the Cold War will come back."
"Think about those backward countries, they don't have nuclear bombs, many don't even have missiles, do you want their Laiyang steel pipes and gas canisters to deal with monsters? I heard that some countries have worshipped monsters as gods, and they have given sacrifices to them, which is unimaginable. ”
"The hope of mankind cannot be pinned on Ultraman Tiga, and human beings must have the ability to protect themselves."
"You know, it could be an opportunity. We used to fight each other on our own, but the appearance of monsters made us understand that we are actually our own kind. At this moment, I would like to write a poem, an ancient poem from the ancient East: HumanKind, boiled beans burn beans, beans cry in the kettle. This is born from the same root, so why not be in a hurry to fry each other. The meaning of the poem ......"
"Iron Man, Iron Man will destroy monsters!"
"Why destroy the monsters? Monsters are sent by God to punish us, look at what humans have become of this earth, wars, plagues, global warming, El Niño...... If we don't repent and don't stop, there will be even greater divine punishment coming soon! ”

Back in the anchor room, Christine's face was still with a bright smile, and she said with some embarrassment: "Regarding the issue of the victory team, the people do have different opinions, so what are the views of the organizations related to this matter?" We have the pleasure of having the representative of the military, General Thaddeus Ross, greetings, General Ross. ”
An old face of General Ross appeared on the right half of the screen, looking old-fashioned and impatient, and said very badly, "I'm fine, I'll make a long story short." We won't accept any bullshit victory team flying over our heads, the strength of the military is enough to defend the country, and defeat the monsters! ”
"Then what do you think of Godzilla's attack on Tokyo Bay and the annihilation of the Seventh Fleet?"
"One defeat doesn't mean anything, we have a track record of destroying monsters, and we're the only ones in the military of any country to do it."
"May I remind you that the military used three nuclear bombs to completely destroy the monster that originally landed in San Francisco, and it was later turned into a monster graveyard, which experts claim is unhabitable for hundreds of years."
"There is no victory without sacrifice, and this is the price that must be paid."
"So in the last few local monster attacks, you have not appeared, how do you explain it?"
"I want to remind everyone that although we didn't move, the National Guard didn't move either, and procedurally speaking, they should have gone first. It's not our fault, it's the cumbersome procedural issues that are holding us back. ”
"General Ross, this question is a bit too big, let's discuss a small monster problem. Rumor has it that the military's biotech enhancement program has had a major accident and created a runaway little green monster, General Ross, you have been hunting it down for the past few years, and it has already expended a lot of manpower and material resources......"
"I'm sorry, this is a state secret, with all due respect. Now I have some emergencies to deal with that threaten national security, goodbye. ”
After General Ross finished speaking, he directly cut off the connection, leaving only the beautiful anchor alone in the wind. Just as she was hesitating whether to end there, the staff next to her suddenly handed over a manuscript, which was considered to save her.
"The latest news, the famous millionaire, Iron Man Tony Stark, will hold a press conference in five minutes, at which he will make a big announcement, let's keep an eye on it."
"We see Tony Stark standing in front of the podium in full clothes, his girlfriend, the new CEO of Stark Industries, the lucky Pepper Potts, is standing behind him, oh, she doesn't look very happy, who knows what whimsical things Mr. Stark is going to do, it doesn't seem like it's a good job to be the big butler of Stark Industries, after all, her predecessor Obadistein died in an unknown way, maybe she is more suitable to be Mr. Stark's personal secretary, handing people clothes or something. Oh, sorry, the press conference has begun, let's cut to the live footage. ”
At the press conference, Tony Stark was standing there talking to the reporters who were swarming below: "Today is a special day, on this special occasion, I want to announce a special thing, you can take out your voice recorder, turn on your camera, prepare your little notebook, record every word I say, every piece of information, it is exclusive." ”
