Chapter 1,489 The “Resurrected From the Dead” President
"...We promise to recreate the Statue of Liberty Torch for the American people to commemorate the denuclearization of North America and commemorate this hard-won peace." Standing on the lawn in front of the White House, facing reporters from all over the world, Zhang Yapingqing He cleared his throat and read.
Just one day ago, the New Zealand delegation held negotiations with the United States.
To be precise, it is not a negotiation, but an order. From the position of the victorious country, no matter what demands it makes, the defeated country has no right to refuse.
The first requirement put forward by the new country is to ban all nuclear weapons reserves, nuclear equipment production plants, and even harmless nuclear power plants in North America, which can be regarded as completely abolishing the nuclear production capabilities of the United States. As a victim of nuclear war, the new country has reasons and indeed the right to do so.
Even if the new country does not request it, the member states of the Earth Defense Alliance will make this request. After all, the US president has too much power in war. Mike Pence went beyond the Constitution and launched nuclear weapons without declaring war, which has touched the fragile nerves of most nuclear-armed countries.
With China and Russia helping to exert pressure, although the opposition from the EU is not small, it cannot become a climate change.
As compensation for the ban on nuclear power plants, the new country will bear most of the costs of connecting the United States to the global power grid, and will also provide certain discounts to North American electricity prices in the next ten years. However, compared to the benefits Star Ring Trade gained from "North America's access to the Internet," this effort is just a fraction.
As the world's second largest electricity consumer, if the electricity market is opened up without reservation, it is conservatively estimated that one year's revenue in North America alone will be enough to be worth the total revenue of the global power grid in 2020.
There was sparse applause from the audience. Although it was good news, everyone's faces were tense.
Especially Mike Pence, who was standing next to Zhang Yaping, even his clapping hands moved at a constant speed insincerely. He has been mocked by the media a lot these days, and these mocking voices come from both domestic and foreign sources.
People seemed to take their anger out on him.
Whether it is Americans or foreigners who suffered losses due to the defeat of the United States.
Just when Mike Pence began to get bored with the show, an assistant trotted up to Mike Pence and whispered a few words in his ear.
"Mr. President, yesterday over there in California..."
After being slightly startled, Mike Pence's expression suddenly became tense.
"Trump? Isn't that guy dead?"
"He doesn't seem to be dead,
It is said that he was returned with an admiral serving in the Pacific Fleet. At that time, they were driving a Mustang P51 from the last century and landed on a wheat field..." the assistant said quickly.
"How many people know this news?" Mike Pence said alertly.
"It's not clear yet... but according to that guy's personality, he should have been on Twitter by now..."
Mike Pence's face turned green for a moment.
Noticing the change on the face of Mike Pence next to him, Zhang Yaping smiled slightly and said politely.
"What's the matter? Mr. Mike Pence."
"No...it's true," he quickly changed his words mid-sentence, but his face remained calm. Mike Pence continued expressionlessly, "I have something to take care of, can I leave first?"
"Of course." Zhang Yaping made a gesture of invitation.
Looking at Mike Pence's leaving back, a meaningful smile appeared on Zhang Yaping's face, he waved gently and whispered something in a voice that only he could hear.
"Have a nice trip, Mr. Mike Pence."
…
"Tell John Corning to come over to see me immediately, and let him bring the FBI agents who can still be used. Also, be careful and don't attract the attention of the Star Ring Trade." Walking towards the car On the way, Mike Pence spoke quickly to his assistant, "I don't care what method he uses, I ask him to freeze the idiot's social account before he gets his phone."
"I'll go right away..."
Watching his assistant walk to another car, Mike Pence took a deep breath, nodded to the bodyguard who opened the door for him, and got into the Lincoln sedan next to him.
Soon his assistant called John Corning, but there was only a continuous busy signal on the other end of the phone and he couldn't get through. In desperation, he had no choice but to call Kauning's assistant. However, he learned that Kauning did not go to the FBI headquarters building to work today.
From the tone of voice on the other end of the phone, the presidential assistant had a vague sense that something was wrong.
Neither Mike Pence nor his assistants knew at this moment that any remedial measures would be too late. A storm has begun to follow the tentacles of the Internet and spread to all walks of life in the United States...
What completely triggered this storm was a piece of news pushed by the Future People Group.
The news had been prepared long before Trump arrived in California.
When they learned from this news that Trump was not dead, the first reaction of most Americans was to open their phones and pull out their calendars. It wasn't until I confirmed that today was not April Fools' Day that I logged onto Twitter with a weird look on my face and found that familiar avatar.
Sure enough, Twitter, which had stopped updating for a long time, updated a new tweet.
[…Thank you to the FBI, Mr. Mike Pence, Boeing and all the ‘sponsors’ for giving me a long vacation despite your busy schedule. Let me see, what have you done during my absence? 】
When the piloted Breen Admiral Mustang P51 landed in California, Trump immediately contacted the local media with the help of a California farmer. At the same time, he personally called Twitter’s corporate headquarters to appeal and lifted the social account that had been temporarily frozen due to his disappearance.
Immediately afterwards, the first thing he did when he got his smartphone was to send a tweet and attached a photo with a Mustang P51 as the background... and his golden hair that was blown into a chicken nest.
In less than five minutes after this tweet was posted, it received thousands of replies and hundreds of thousands of likes.
Most of the responses were quite concise and to the point.
Either there are only two or three words, or there are only a few question marks...
California, located in Silicon Valley south of San Francisco. In an office building of an Internet company, Adam Best was sitting at his desk reading a newspaper. California, located on the west coast, has not been baptized by the flames of war, and company employees are working normally.
At this moment, the mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.
Hearing the familiar alarm, almost as a conditioned reflex, Adam Bass jumped up from the boss's chair, grabbed the mobile phone on the table, pressed his thumb on the unlock button in one go, and clicked on Twitter.
This alarm is set specifically for a certain person.
As a former member of the Anti-Trump Alliance, Adam Best was always ready for every new tweet from Trump. This entrepreneur from Austin, USA, founder of the website Fansided, took the trouble to set a special reminder function for Trump’s tweets.
As soon as Trump tweets, his phone will receive an alert immediately. Because he didn’t set alerts for anyone but Trump, it was hard for him to miss any of the president’s tweets. Sometimes they even prepare a series of roughly formed tweets on different topics in advance, copy and paste them at the first opportunity and press the send button.
After seeing Trump's tweet, Best fell into rare silence.
Faced with the "resurrected" president, this time he rarely complained, but only sent a series of ellipses to express his shock and disbelief.
Because he really didn't know what to say at this time.
