Chapter 1443 (1/2)
”Oh, God, Virgin Mary, tell me it's not true. I bet people all over the world are waiting to see our jokes now... ” Standing in the hall of Javitz Convention and Exhibition Center, facing the results of the large screen screening, a man in a suit lost control and hugged his head.
When the vote of the last state came out, it was a foregone conclusion. Although the winner or loser has been decided a long time ago, many people still have a bit of luck and think it can't be as bad as this.
”Thank you, thank you for choosing me, and I will lead this country to be strong again,” Mr. trump said in his signature gesture to his supporters. ”I will keep my campaign promise! I swear to you again here. The new country will be the first stop of my diplomatic visit after taking office. I will have a good talk with that man, in a man's way! ”
Cheers like rain, applause like thunder.
Under the swaying Star Spangled Banner are fanatical faces, as if the American dream has been rekindled, as if everything is back 40 years ago, back to that great era.
Of course, not everyone is happy with the result.
The day after the election results came out, an atmosphere of disappointment and anger enveloped Silicon Valley.
In many technology companies, the working atmosphere is extremely heavy. Many people are in a low mood with red and swollen eyes, especially some female employees. When they see John Kennedy's speech on their mobile phones, they can't help but cry.
On the other side, on the streets of San Francisco, Berkeley and Auckland, hundreds of people took to the streets for two consecutive nights to protest against the election of Chuan PU. They chanted slogans like ”he's not our president” and ”we don't want racists.” they threw cans and even stones at trump supporters.
Some of the protest sites were out of control for a time, and there were even violent incidents of beating, smashing and looting, and the crazy act of burning the American flag. The police had to arrest some radical protestors. Hillary Clinton, who has not yet transferred power, had to stand up and appeal to all parties to remain calm.
In Georgia, a militia called ”guard” gathered in the suburbs, led by a 50 year old white veteran, began military training, claiming that it would defend the Constitution with bullets and suppress traitors who tried to split the country
Trump's election made California White left and black green ink people completely crazy. They went to the streets for three consecutive days to vent their discontent. Due to the widespread support of Asian Americans for trump, the Asian community has become a disaster area of violence and chaos. Some angry niggers robbed and set fire to them.
……
”We lost.”
”Yes, we lost.”
“…… How do I feel that your mood doesn't seem to be very low? ” After a moment's hesitation, lodge said mildly, in a slightly discontented tone.
”No! I'm quite sad, just I don't know what to say. All of a sudden, we have been preparing for so long... ”
No, I can't help it.
After dropping this sentence, Jiang Chen quickly reached out and pressed the mute button on the holographic screen when Lodge began to speak. Then he lay down on the table with his shoulder shaking violently.
Although lost, but do not know why, at the moment he just can't help laughing.
Maybe this is the so-called schadenfreude.
After about half a minute's laughter, Jiang Chen sat up straight again, cleared his throat and pressed the button to turn on the microphone again.
”Cough, I'm sorry, the signal just fluctuated on my side What did you say just now
”I'm saying, what are you going to do?” Rocky repeated it patiently.
”I haven't thought about it yet. You know, it's all too sudden. It's really sudden,” he said twice in a row. Jiang Chen leaned back on the chair, tapped his index finger on the armrest of the boss's chair. After thinking for a moment, he adjusted his words and said, ”to be honest, I don't know very much about trump But considering his campaign manifesto, I'm worried about the prospect of the United States joining the Earth Defense Alliance. ”
”Worry?” Rocky shook his head and said with a wry smile, ”don't worry, you can give up. He would never agree to join the Earth Defense Alliance, even in name. ”
This is what makes Rocky's heart ache the most.
If the United States can not join the Earth Defense Alliance, it means that the next step of cooperation between the Boston consortium and star ring trade can not be carried out, and the investment of first National Bank of Boston in the space industry is still subject to policy restrictions.
