Chapter 1,241 Special Rewards
Just as the Star Ring Trade press conference ended, far away in the White House on the other side of the Pacific, the FBI director hurriedly opened the door of the President's Office and walked to Hillary's desk.
"We must get McDonald's people out as soon as possible." Putting a document in front of the president, he put his hands on the table and said seriously, "There is reliable intelligence that Star Ring Trading has a name. A drug called Veritaserum!”
"You mean, they're going to use veritaserum on MacDonald?" Hillary frowned as she looked at the document.
"According to their usual style, this possibility cannot be ruled out." The FBI director said solemnly, "I am worried that McDonald may reveal things to them that should not be disclosed, such as our financial transactions with North American human rights institutions."
Having said this, the FBI director looked at Hillary seriously and said.
"We have to get this guy out ASAP! Before they convict him and put him on a drug trial!"
Rubbing her temples, Hillary glanced at the documents on the table and said tiredly.
"……Do you have any good ideas?"
The FBI director was about to speak, but he froze when the words came to his lips.
He suddenly realized that his idea seemed to be of no use to the Star Ring trade...
Send a lawyer? Black Voices is already doing this and has hired the most powerful team of lawyers, but the situation is still not optimistic. The New Zealand courts seemed determined to convict Macdonald, and the lawsuit was unfair from the start.
Send the seals? Whether you can even touch Koro Island is a question...
"This... the CIA is mainly responsible for overseas affairs." The FBI director looked aside awkwardly, "We are only responsible for contacting human rights organizations in North America..."
At this point, he himself was embarrassed to say any more.
Hillary sighed and put the information on the table aside.
She now gets a headache whenever she sees the word "Xinguo", and even suffers from depression because of it.
I originally entered the political arena with great ambitions, but I didn't expect that it would end up like this.
How will history judge her?
I just hope that historians can write more about her opponents so that she, the first female president of the United States, does not look so incompetent. After all, she believed that she had made the right choice at all times. Even if the final result was unsatisfactory, she did not lose politically...
"Do you know what I hope for most right now?"
Looking at Hillary, who was rubbing her brow, the FBI director asked cautiously.
"President...Mrs.?"
"What I hope most now is that winter will come sooner this year."
"Madam President," the FBI director swallowed and reminded in a low voice, "it's winter now."
…
News of Macdonald's arrest in New Zealand caused an international uproar, especially among the black community. In an interview with the media, Black Voice stated that it will do its best to rescue McDonald and will hire the best team of lawyers to provide him with legal assistance. The president of Tanzania in Africa even summoned the ambassador of the new country to Tanzania to express his concern about this incident.
However, in comparison, what attracted more attention from the international community was Jiang Chen's speech on the "James Incident" on behalf of Futureman Group at the press conference.
Especially at the press conference, Jiang Chen's interpretation of the word equality and his interpretation of "equal rights does not mean giving privileges to certain groups of people" caused two opposite extremes in the international public opinion's evaluation of him.
Some people believe that if certain protection is not provided to ethnic minorities, it will exacerbate social inequality and racial discrimination, which is not conducive to social "fairness".
Others said.
That’s really nice to say!
Because black people are lazier and therefore poorer, in the end, their children will be given extra points so that they will not be far behind Chinese students in the exam? To avoid losing your life? And then be discriminated against? Solidify the class? Why go around in such a big circle?
Directly enact a law that stipulates that part of the money in the wallets of the rich must be put into the wallets of the poor. Wouldn't this eliminate even the class itself? The gap between rich and poor is the root of the conflict!
Especially Jiang Chen's sentence "...for some people who try to seek privileges for themselves under the banner of a minority and in the name of equality, I tell you in a positive tone that you are dreaming.", it is simply like that. It touched the hearts of many people.
Supporters of Jiang Chen's words can be found even on the other side of the distant Pacific Ocean.
For example, a certain US election candidate who threatened to "arm-wrestle" with Jiang Chen even said sympathetically on a talk show: "He is a respectable opponent. You know who I am referring to. If the United States If you want to become strong, you must have a strong leader to stand up and remind those hooligans who use their race and beliefs to get out of our country. I think I happen to be such a strong leader, you guys You can vote for me..."
Although most Americans are already used to this candidate who talks a lot about cheating, this time he went out of his way to offend black people. Some black congressmen even stood up and asked the Republican Party to cancel his participation in the March election. Qualifications for intra-party preselection.
Trump certainly does not intend to give in. After all, he has been in constant turmoil since his candidacy, and the number of people calling for his disqualification can be counted on one hand. However, considering the votes in the hands of black brothers, he reiterated that what he said was only aimed at terrorists and illegal immigrants...
"You have been jointly condemned."
At night, Natasha, who was wearing a nightgown, walked to the living room, threw a newspaper on the coffee table, then walked to sit across from Jiang Chen, leaned on the sofa and lazily crossed her legs, "The Black Voice accuses you. The condolences to James are not sincere enough, saying that even if James’ wife gives up the legal action against Futureman Group and Starlink Trading, she will take you to court over this incident.”
"Where can you sue me? Moscow?" Jiang Chen teased.
"In Mississippi."
"I'm not very good at geography," Jiang Chen yawned, looking at the fair skin on her collar that was intentionally revealed, and said with a bad smile, "Instead of doing such boring things, we might as well use this time to do something Interesting stuff."
"Are you not worried at all?" Natasha changed the position of her legs, raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked curiously, "I heard that they are calling for a boycott of Future Man Group's products."
"If they can endure the life of primitive people, I have no objection." Jiang Chen laughed.
From phantom helmets to smart robots to future mobile phones and later urban drone systems, Future Group has almost become synonymous with the term next generation, covering all aspects of people's lives.
High technology is addictive, just like a person who is used to using smartphones. Let him go back to using mobile phone. The pain of being out of touch with the times is probably more uncomfortable than killing him. And this is so far. The United States is very cautious and has not launched an anti-dumping investigation against Futureman Group.
Even though Future Man Group already has the fact to monopolize the market, so far the United States has not been able to find a company that can replace Future Man Group.
Not even Microsoft and Google. One has to pay high patent fees to the Future People Group for graphene chips, while the other simply imports a large number of supercomputing chips from Anga Island every year to maintain its own servers around the world...
"Well, since you don't take those people to heart at all, I have nothing to say," Natasha shrugged, "I went to the Russian Embassy today, and the Kremlin wanted me to ask you, How's the situation on Mars? Also, do you really don't need help?"
"I'm pretty sure we don't need help. It's estimated that in five days at the latest, our transport ship will arrive in Mars synchronous orbit." Looking at Natasha, Jiang Chen smiled and said, "It's you, your scientists. When are you going to come over and report?”
"The specimen has been delivered?! So soon?" Natasha looked at Jiang Chen in surprise and asked.
"Well... to be precise, the freezing cabin containing the devil bug specimens was recovered at the Star Ring City port two hours ago." Looking at the expression on Natasha's face, Jiang Chen said with a smile, "It should have been shipped by now. Arrived at the specimen library of the Star Circle City Laboratory."
He had just communicated this news to other member states, and thinking that Natasha happened to be at home, he planned to tell her the news in person.
As for why, of course it's because it's more interesting.
"Wait, recycle the cryopod? Aren't you using a transport ship to deliver this specimen?" Natasha asked hurriedly.
"That's the case on the surface," Jiang Chen said, "We can't dissect specimens in front of the media, right? And what is suitable for disclosure and what is not suitable for talking about everywhere needs to be studied. So in fact, we use It is a small launch vehicle for transporting ore specimens...Although the carrying capacity is not high, its cruising speed can theoretically reach twice that of the Seagull-class transport ship."
"I'm going to make a call." After listening to what Jiang Chen said, Natasha immediately stood up from the sofa. "The Russian scientists can board the plane now. If it's quick, they will appear at the Koro Airport at noon tomorrow."
With that said, Natasha walked towards the stairs.
However, when passing by Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen reached out and grabbed his arm.
"This is incredible information, my dear Miss Agent." Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and said with a bad smile, "Aren't you going to give your informant some... special reward?"
With a chuckle, Natasha gave Jiang Chen a charming look.
Leaning down and blowing hot air into his ear, Natasha teased in a thought-provoking tone.
"Go to my room in a moment... remember to wash up before you come, so that I can give you the reward of 'Miss Agent'."
