[064] Schmidt's press conference

Schmidt also held a press conference in Rose Square in downtown Portland. After Chief Burleigh pioneered this method of announcing major events in Anchorage, the whole of the United States rushed to imitate it. Even after the Hunter incident, when Harrison spoke at the White House, he would also hold a large-scale press conference.

However, the reporters who attended the meeting felt that this was evidence of the close relationship between Schmidt and Boli. When the Schmidts did not show up, the spotlights in the square kept ringing, and the atmosphere was very warm. It's not much worse than the White House speech!

Since Schmidt suddenly decided to show up and hold this press conference, most of the people present at the meeting were reporters from local tabloids in Portland, and the "New York Times" happened to have a special reporter stationed in Portland. , so I was lucky to grab this headline news and start it nationwide.

Schmidt's press conference, simply put, is a personal show of Schmidt complaining about grievances and self-dissection!

From the first sentence of Schmidt's coming to power, this tone was established: "On behalf of Schmidt Mining Company, I solemnly sue Chief Burleigh of the Anchorage Police Department, because of his inappropriate remarks, causing The company is in an extremely unfavorable situation!"

The reporter below was holding a big bulky camera, and was stunned by this English speech with a serious German accent!

I thought about many scripts in advance, but the reporters never expected that the president of Schmidt Mining Company, who was ordered to wear a pair of underwear with Burley, actually bit Burley hard as soon as he came up!

And Schmidt's next speech made these reporters stunned, and at the same time, the blood of gossip in his body was boiling!

Schmidt said: The company has purchased the 99-year "mineral development rights" for the entire territory of Alaska from the US federal government through legal channels. Except for the iron ore, the survey, inspection, and prospecting of other sites are not progressing smoothly, and it is very likely that the initial investment of 500 million US dollars will not be recovered!And the 3% donation mentioned by Chief Khabarovsk is purely fictitious...

In the not-too-long speech, the reporter sensitively discovered a key word: mineral development rights!

What is this right?Never heard of it!Could it be that Schmidt made it up?

So, when Schmidt was still crying and complaining on the podium, well-connected reporters secretly sent someone back to the agency to check the information!What's more, some reporters went directly to their acquaintances in the market to find out, what the hell is this right to purchase minerals!

After a quick investigation, it is incredible that this 'mineral development right' was really formulated by William Henry Seward, the US Secretary of State who facilitated the Alaska land purchase back then!Alaska is generally considered to have poor mines, bad weather, and inconvenient transportation. The right to purchase minerals is simply a tasteless existence!Whoever buys is an idiot!

Unexpectedly, someone actually spent a huge sum of money to buy it!And once you buy it, the upper limit is 99 years!

The Germans, who have always been known for their rigor, will make such a mistake?This is not scientific!

But the reporters immediately realized that Schmidt had Jewish blood in his body.

If you win, you will become a multi-millionaire, if you lose, you will owe a debt and jump to the Arctic Ocean!But obviously, Mr. Schmidt is not far away from swimming in the Arctic Ocean...

When Schmidt was about to pour out his bitterness, a reporter asked: "President Schmidt, you said that you spent $350 million to purchase a 99-year mining development right in Alaska. Do you have any documents to prove it?"

Schmidt was well prepared, took out a handkerchief and wiped his face, and waved his hands to let his subordinates read out the agreement signed with Todd in public.

The transaction value of 350 million US dollars, 5000 escort quotas, and 1500 immigration access rights each year, all of these surprised the reporters!

There is really a fool who spends such a huge sum of money to buy the tasteless mineral development rights!This Schmidt is Seward's second! (After Seward promoted the purchase of Alaska, it was ridiculed by many people and was not understood by the Chinese people, and these people ridiculed Alaska as 'Seward's refrigerator'!)

However, the 5000 legal quotas for holding guns made the reporters tense up: My dear, with this provision, the recent turmoil of the Schmidt Mining Company murdering journalists may come to an end!

As long as the agreement proves to be effective afterwards, even Congress has no power to convict Schmidt Mining Company!Not to mention sending any troops into Alaska!

Schmidt's first press conference ended happily in an atmosphere of bitterness, misery, and desolation, but the shock to all the reporters present was extremely huge!

It's just too, so fucking predictable!

When the reporters left the venue with their cameras in their hands, they trotted forward: Are you saying that Schmidt and Burleigh are not the same breed?Their press conferences always give people the best news, this time it will be difficult for us not to get promoted and get rich!

Sure enough, the New York Times sold a record 50 copies that day!

In the afternoon, the "Washington Post" supplement, which was a little behind, also published an interview with former Alaska acting governor Michelle Todd.

In the report, Todd said that the Schmidt company did send people to the Alaska peninsula to purchase the "mineral development rights" that no one cared about for 350 million US dollars on Christmas Eve last year. Accurate measurement, careful research, and discretion to give Schmidt Mining Company the fairest price!No doubt!

A reporter from the Post asked: Is the ceiling for 99 ill-considered?After all, Alaska is the land of the United States, so how is Mr. Todd different from a traitor?

Todd had been prepared for a long time, and responded with a sneer: In 99, he just sold a useless development right!If Alaska was rich in minerals, then the gold rush troops from all over the world would have already crowded Alaska. I used a weak development right that 99% of American citizens do not know, and I created an income of 350 million US dollars for the country!Am I traitorous?If this is traitorous, then I hope that all American people will come to betray the country, then we can surpass Britain, France and Germany overnight!

Reporter: ... Leaving this aside, then, with 5000 legal quotas for holding guns and 1500 immigration rights, did Mr. Todd deliberately give Schmidt Mining Company preferential treatment?As far as I know, this company is registered in Canada, and most of the employees are Chinese from the Qing Dynasty!

Todd also sneered: You have never been to Alaska, and you don’t know how vast the land is and how harsh the climate is. Let me tell you a proverb, if Alaska becomes the second state of the United States and is cut in half, then Germany Texas is the third largest state capital in the United States! (Texas is now the largest state capital in the United States) A ​​mere 5000 people, evenly divided into every acre of land, is simply less than zero!I have been in Alaska for so many years, and I am not afraid to tell the truth. It is full of adventurers stealing ore. They have never paid anything to the federal government. Since I sold the "mineral development rights" to Mr. Schmidt on behalf of the state, Naturally, his legitimate interests must be guaranteed! 5000 people, in my opinion, are not too many, but too few!

The reporter was completely speechless.
