Chapter 1613 Best Candidate Baron Mordo
There is no actual conclusion about how many fans Michael Jackson has. But according to statistics from the United States, nearly one million fans spontaneously came to see off the King of Pop music on the day of the public memorial service held in the Los Angeles area after Michael's death.
It was reported that on the day of Jackson's memorial service, the Los Angeles area police needed to dispatch 6,400 police officers to maintain order at that time. And you must know that the annual Oscars actually only need 500 police officers. And that's just field data. According to statistics, the global audience who watched the memorial service through newspaper news, live TV broadcast, later rebroadcast and online online is estimated to have reached 3 billion people. This far exceeds the data of 2.5 billion people at the funeral of Princess Diana in 1997, and it can be said to be one of the most important signs of the times at the beginning of the 21st century.
Of course, such data alone does not prove that Jackson's fans have reached such an astonishing number of billions. However, just as there are still people who like his old songs after Elvis Presley passed away, with Jackson's achievements, it is absolutely impossible for him to be as short-lived as those traffic florets.
Although he is dead. But those living, dead, and unborn fans will definitely be his most loyal fans. Perhaps there will not be such an exaggerated figure of three billion now. However, as long as the death rate of human beings is less than the birth rate, this number will be realized one day.
Stark, who is a Jackson fan, thinks so. Therefore, he certainly hoped that Master Ancient One would take Jackson as his goal.
Faced with his wishful thinking, Gu Yi just thought about it for a while, then shook his head firmly.
"Unfortunately, Lord Stark. Although your plan does have your uniqueness. But I don't think it would be a good choice for me to show my face. Don't forget, I am burdened with injustice. Injustice. If I was exposed in front of the public casually, then, who can be sure that this will not be used by our enemies and become the fuse for him to cause conflicts and chaos?"
At this time, Stark also had to admit that his thoughts were indeed somewhat inappropriate. But this does not mean that he will give up such an idea because of this. As he himself said, this idea has great maneuverability and controllability. It would be a real shame if it was discarded for such a small reason.
Since Master Gu Yi can't show his face in public, then find a way to find a substitute to show up instead of her. Holding the resources of a country, it is not difficult for Stark to do so. In fact, as long as he wanted, he could transfer a trustworthy person from the spy agency in his hands immediately. However, this matter still needs to be nodded by Mage Gu Yi, so before he decided to do this, he still told Gu Yi what he thought.
Facing his idea, Gu Yi just hesitated for a moment, and responded to him like this.
"I don't object to your idea. It's just that, as for the candidate to replace me, I hope I can choose it. In fact, I have a very good candidate to propose right now."
The choice of people is just a trivial matter, and Stark doesn't care who fills the role. It is even said that in this case, it would be more beneficial for him to have the candidate proposed by Master Gu Yi. Because at the very least, he won't worry about the identity of the person he arranges being revealed, and then he and the government will be involved.
Of course, this is not to say that any cat or dog can be qualified for such a position. For this candidate, he still has to ask more or less.
"Can I know who the guy you are going to propose is? Is he worthy of your trust, and will he cooperate with our work honestly?"
"He is my student, and he is also one of my most trusted students. Although he is somewhat conservative and stubborn in his ideas, I think he will not There's nothing wrong with it. He's a guy with a strong sense of mission, and for such a just cause, he would even risk his own life."
Ancient One explained his choice, which immediately made Stark applaud.
"Fine. That's the kind of guy we need right now. Conservative and stubborn, it's not a problem. We're not asking him to be gay and go striptease. This will not conflict with his ideas at all. As for the sense of mission, this is more satisfying to me. I firmly believe that only a person with a lofty sense of mission and responsibility can achieve great things. Therefore, If he is really what you said, I don’t think he will let us down. By the way, where is he now? I can’t wait to see him.”
"Maybe you won't be able to see him until tomorrow. Because of such an important matter, I have to talk to him first."
Gu Yi's answer made Stark couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and then he spoke to Gu Yi like a joke.
"I thought the so-called supreme mage could easily order his apprentices? It seems that things are not what I imagined."
"Isn't this a matter of course? They are separate individuals with their own thoughts and cognitions. How can I manipulate their thoughts and let them be driven by me casually?"
Gu Yi didn't care about this kind of teasing, and even quickly fought back. And such a reaction naturally made Stark shrug his shoulders, showing a helpless expression.
"Seriously, ma'am. I really don't want to chat with you. Because chatting with you always kills me. So, let's call it a day. Tomorrow, I'll be here waiting for you and That apprentice of yours. By the way, there is no need to announce your arrival. Since you were able to appear in front of me suddenly the first time, I think you should be able to do so this time. I have already seen you sincerity, so there is no need to excuse such red tape."
"If that's what you want, I'd be happy"
After saying this, Gu Yi quietly disappeared into the White House. And when she appeared again, she no longer said she was alone.
A black man followed her, standing respectfully on both sides of her. Facing Stark who was already waiting at the same place, Gu Yi introduced him directly.
"Your Excellency Stark, this is the candidate I told you about yesterday. He is Kar Modu, because he has a noble title in Transylvania, you can just call him Sir Mordo."
Seeing the black mage who puffed up his chest unconsciously because of Gu Yi's introduction, Stark couldn't help but pouted immediately because of his old problems.
"Transylvania, I remember that it is a province of Romania, right? Why, can that small place still confer nobles?"
"I am a nobleman enshrined by the Emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Mr. Stark. If you don't know what this means, silence may be better than your mouth talking nonsense!"
Baron Modo's respect is only for Gu Yi, his mentor. For Stark, the ordinary person in his eyes, he doesn't care about his identity and feelings. Therefore, since Stark dared to speak this way, naturally don't blame him for being rude in words.
This was a compromise made for Gu Yi's sake. Otherwise, he really wouldn't mind using a spell to let the so-called President of the United States understand how unwise it is to offend a mage.
"I like your temper, Sir Mordo. If you can show this spirit in your future work, I think you will be very popular."
For Baron Mordo's rude remarks, Stark didn't take it very seriously. He himself is a proud person, so of course he can understand the thoughts of those who are proud of their talents. That's not a bad thing, because they're somehow talented anyway. This point is much better than those ignorant and arrogant guys.
Of course, having said that. But this does not mean that he has decided that Baron Morton will be the suitable candidate. Temperament is one thing, ability is a more important factor. Whether he has the qualifications to be supported by them, in the final analysis, still has to be judged.
So at the moment, Stark asked Baron Mordo straight to the point.
"Ms. Gu Yi said that she needs a day to discuss with you. Now a day has passed, and you have come here with her. So, can I think that you have already discussed the results? Well, can you Tell me, what is your answer?"
At this time, it was obvious that Baron Mordo was more suitable to answer this question, so he just hesitated, and said directly to Stark.
"I declare in advance that I personally do not agree with this idea very much. Because casually displaying magic in front of ordinary people is a kind of conflict with the original order of the world. I don't think this is the right thing to do. But I also know that if the current situation is really serious to the extent that His Excellency the Supreme Master said, it is obviously inappropriate to cling to some outdated regulations. Therefore, I agree to do so, and I am also willing to use limited spells to cooperate with your publicity and promotion. If this is really useful."
"Very good, let me just say it! A person with a sense of mission will not let us down."
Stark just praised a few words, and Baron Mordo interrupted him rudely.
"But, I have my conditions!"
