Chapter 1365 The Responsibility of Creating an Era

For Li Jie, this trip to Asia has long been expected. He had planned and decided to do these things long ago. Because when we started a new era, Li Jie and other bigwigs from the Illuminati knew very well that the change of times would inevitably make many people at a loss.

It is even said that it cannot keep up with the times and be eliminated. But being eliminated is not the most terrible thing. What is terrible is where should those people go after being eliminated? Although it is said that all things evolve naturally, the survival of the fittest. If it is a politician or a simple capitalist, they will not care about the struggles of the people at the bottom.

Because many people believe in the so-called market regulation, and believe that those who are eliminated must be eliminated. For many capitalists, they have created a new era of certain industries, and they don't care about the people and things of the previous era. Not to mention industrial upgrading for these people.

All they do is make more money in the market. What they need is to be responsible to shareholders, not to those industrial workers.

"But what we want to do is not like this." Backstage, with Lan's help, Li Jie untied his tight tie: "I once said that I want to change the world. Although I am saying these words today The reporters under the stage were all laughing."

"That's because they don't know your greatness." Lan stroked Li Jie's face with both hands and gave him a kiss: "You can never expect those sparrows to understand the greatness of the swan."

"I don't expect them to understand. As long as they can spread what I said today. I thought many years ago that I want to change the world. That should be my dream when I was very young. That There are no heroes who are active in front of the stage in this era. All heroic images are just living in fantasy works." Li Jie unbuttoned his suit and vest and sat directly on the sofa.

The childhood he recalls now does not refer to the childhood in this world, but the childhood in his previous life earlier.

"Heroes only live on TV, while villains live in reality. When I was young, I liked to watch a lot of news and various animations. Looking at the poor children in the news who couldn't afford enough to eat, Look at those unscrupulous factories and enterprises that entrap people's lives, and those who commit various crimes and even kill people for petty profits. There are also various families that have been torn apart because of drug gambling. Heh," Li Jie said, the meaning here is unclear Laughed, then shook his head.

"At that time, I thought why the heroes in the cartoon didn't come out to save these people? Why didn't they destroy those black-hearted factories, destroy those drug cartels, stop the crime from happening and save others? Slowly I grew up, I get it, the stories in the cartoons and special feature films are all lies. There are not so many heroes in the world."

"Then I grew older and gradually understood more things. I let go of those childhood fantasies and became [mature]. I began to become accidental, and children would argue about right and wrong, black and white, Adults only talk about interests. One day I suddenly found that I had grown up. I started not caring about right or wrong, only about interests.”

Li Jie leaned on the sofa, staring at the ceiling in a daze. Lan felt that Li Jie seemed to be in a bad state, so she sat next to Li Jie and put her arms around him. He put his ear against his chest and listened to his heartbeat. Lan murmured softly, "But you haven't become so accidental, have you?"

"Yeah! When I started to gain power, my world began to change. With power, I gained the right to choose. I can choose to continue to live [adult] and do what everyone in society thinks is [right] things. I believe that I will be very successful in that way.”

Hearing what Li Jie said, Lan rested her chin on Li Jie's chest, raised her head and looked up at Li Jie, blinking her eyes.

"Maybe some people want to grow up forever. But I suddenly woke up. Why should I continue to grow up? I want to go back to the past, back to the age when I was the most self-willed but also the most authentic. I refuse to grow up, I think Be willful for a while. Be a person who only distinguishes right from wrong. Everyone has their own dreams, the first dreams and wishes they set when they were young. Whether it is becoming a scientist, the richest man in the world, or becoming a superhero. "

"Now that I have the ability, I have to choose to stick to my original dream. I want to be a superhero. Many people only remember that being poor means being alone, but they forget that being successful means helping the world. People always have to do something in this life. I have no complaints or regrets. Some people drive a small boat around the world, some people climb the highest peak in the world, some people lose an arm and still play the violin. Some people don’t pay for money to participate in the Dakar Rally and the Isle of Man TT at their own expense. Spent all my money on this. There are always so many crazy people in this world, so many people who can't understand. I used to only cheer for them as an audience. Now I can be one of them, so I want to do better , I want to be the person who changes the world!"

Lan lay on Li Jie's chest, she stared at him, and said softly but forcefully: "You did it today."

Li Jie held Lan's hand and smiled: "No, this is just the beginning."

—————————————

Chen Xiang really didn't know why such a big man came to this small impoverished county in his hometown. The boss of the Marvel Group, this should be considered a big man. When I was in Jinan, I went to see Marvel movies with my classmates, and also read the Marvel comics they bought. Those superheroes are all owned by Marvel, so do those superheroes work for this man named Li Jie?

If that's the case, this rich man named Li Jie is really a very powerful person!

And he came to the county today to cut the ribbon for a school, as if this school was invested and established by their foundation. No wonder there have been so many earth-shaking changes in this small county town of mine in a year. It turned out that it was because some big shots invested here.

There were still two days left for Chen Xiang's leave. He took his parents and his cousin Chen Tie to join in the fun. He went to the county square to see what this big man was going to say and do.

However, there were really too many people in the county square, so many that Chen Xiang and the others could only look at the rostrum where Li Jie was from a long distance away. Fortunately, there is a big screen at the scene where people can see what he looks like.

"He is so young." Chen Tie couldn't help admiring Li Jie who was only in his early twenties on the big screen: "I thought this kind of big businessman was an old man."

Chen Xiang agreed with Chen Tie's admiration. Because he also felt that Li Jie was very young. When they arrived, the ribbon-cutting ceremony was halfway through, and the big shots on the stage were giving speeches. Talking about a lot of things that have nothing to do with them, such as the new world, new opportunities, the age of the universe and so on.

Chen Xiang and the others just came to watch the fun, and they didn't think that what this big man said had anything to do with themselves and others. However, at the end of the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the big man Li Jie said on stage: "Seventy kilometers away, China's Ark rocket launch site has been built. In the future, this county will become an important transit point."

"And here, our three major foundations and the Stark Group are launching a new training project here. The training center will focus on cultivating technicians in the universe. In fact, going to the universe is no longer unattainable, something that ordinary people cannot touch Yes. The earth has entered the cosmic era, and the construction of Starport and Sky City has completed the first and second phases of the project. And the moon also needs a lot of working technicians."

"These industrial workers don't need as high education as traditional astronauts. As long as they learn the relevant technology, anyone has the opportunity to board a spacecraft and enter space. In the star port, work on the moon. Maybe the work is hard, but it will also be An opportunity. Every step you take will change the planet and the lives of yourselves and your families!"

"And here, I announce the official opening of the Explorer Space Skills Training Center! Here we will recruit any students from the whole society who have a junior high school education or above and are under the age of 30. Everyone has a chance!"

Chen Xiang shook his head while watching what Li Jie said on the big screen. He thought to himself: How is it possible, to be an astronaut in space. How did ordinary people go? That's what the big man said. Chen Xiang didn't take Li Jie's words seriously, and many people at the scene didn't take Li Jie's words seriously either. Especially in this small county, many people don't even know what space and astronauts do. Even people of the older generation still think how to go to the moon? Isn't Chang'e living on the moon?

However, just one day after the great man Li Jie left, the people in the county where Chen Xiang and the others were located witnessed a spectacle they had never seen in their entire lives.

A ball of fire slowly rose seventy kilometers away, even though it was seventy kilometers apart, the brilliance emitted by that ball of fire was still as bright as the morning sun. Everyone in the small county was shocked. Almost everyone ran out to see this spectacle.

"This, this is the sun?!"

"Oh my god, this is the stars on the earth going up to the sky!"

"What nonsense, that's the first launch of the Ark spacecraft from the Ark spacecraft launch site 70 kilometers away." The person who said this was the mech operator who used to eat hot and sour noodles at Chen Xiang's home.

Chen Xiang also came out to watch this spectacular scene, although he had seen the video of the rocket launch on the Internet and on TV. But a thousand recordings are not worth a single live viewing. The scorching fireball was like a big sun rising gradually. A child beside Chen Xiang pulled his mother and asked, "Mom, what is this?!"

"This is a spaceship launch." Mom seemed to be quite clear.

"What is a spaceship?"

"It's a spaceship that sends people into space. The person who drives the spaceship is called an astronaut."

"Does it fly higher than an airplane?"

"yes!"

"How high is it?"

"This..." Mom was at a loss for words, and she didn't know how to answer such a question.

But luckily the kid didn't continue to dwell on this issue, he just said in an envious voice: "I won't be an airplane pilot in the future, can I be an astronaut in the future, mom?"

"Okay, okay." The mother hugged her child dotingly.

Chen Xiang looked at the pair of mother and child in front of him, and then at the Ark spaceship that looked like a star on the ground.

"Chen Xiang." Chen Tie did not know when he stood beside Chen Xiang.

"Brother Tie." Chen Xiang called him. But Chen Tie didn't seem to notice, he just stared blankly at the spaceship that was constantly climbing, with an unknown flame flickering in his eyes: "Xiangzi, I have something to discuss with you."

"you say."

"Can you slow down the 30,000 yuan owed to your family? It may take me a while to pay you back."

"You said that, of course!"

"That's good." Chen Tie smiled: "Wait for me for a few years, when I graduate and work. I'll pay you double!"

"What do you want, brother?" Chen Xiang didn't understand.

Chen Tie pointed to the rising flame: "I have signed up, I will go into space in the future! I will go to the moon!"

—————

The envoys of the Nova Corps are getting closer. Li Jie also had to let go of everything he was doing. The leaders of the Illuminati gathered together.

"It's finally here." Tony couldn't tell whether it was excitement or an inexplicable pressure in his tone.

"Yes, we have reached this point. No matter what we thought in the past, we have achieved it today." Li Jie responded with a smile.

"Suddenly I feel a lot of pressure. Entering the age of the universe, hoo~!" Captain Rogers couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Don't be nervous, captain. We just happened to be at the right time, standing on the cusp of the storm and pushing us forward. Now that the era has come, let us welcome their arrival. Why we gather here today is because we want to protect this era Escort. The old era has come to an end, and the new era is ushering in the beginning. Now that we have met, let us let it go!"

Li Jie stood up and looked around at his companions. He smiled very happily and heartily: "We have changed the world, so we have the obligation to make it better. Protect it and build it. Today's responsibility Now that the pressure is on our shoulders, we cannot escape. Gentlemen, work hard to usher in a new era!"
