“Your Excellency, Frank has been shot dead!”

In the presidential palace, outside the conference room used for press releases, a security chief in a killing suit whispered The president who read the manuscript reported the situation.

Mr. President slowly put down the manuscript in his hand. He glanced at his security officer and wiped his face, “This is really bad news, but are the hostages safe?”

p>

The chief security officer solemnly nodded, “Frank refused to communicate with the news coming back from the scene and attempted to hurt the hostages. Our people were forced to shoot in desperation. The hostages are safe.”

Mr. President was satisfied with nodded, “This is very good. It is my duty to protect the safety of federal citizens…” After he finished speaking, he picked up the manuscript again and looked at the chief security officer and chief of staff after a few glances. Nodded, stepped into the Conference Hall.

The moment he walked into the Conference Hall, the flash almost turned it into a world of silver, and the suddenly lit light was somewhat uncomfortable even for presidents who were used to seeing the media.

He slightly squinted his eyes and walked to the side of the chair, his eyes drooping, which made him feel better.

Twenty-four hours have passed since the situation broke out yesterday morning. No matter what others think, the media will first become crazy, and then public opinion.

The matter has spread, and it is obviously not practical to cover the lid. It will make people feel that Mr. President and his cabinet government are incompetent. They can only find a solution, at least let the blockade The ordinary investors at the door of the bank or the exchange calm down.

After a few seconds, the flashing frequency of the flash has decreased, but all the reporters raised their arms high, and the head of staffs report came from the headset worn by Mr. President. The voice, “The second ranked fourth lady wearing a blue silk scarf…”

Mr. President looked up, and there was indeed a lady wearing a blue silk scarf in the second row. He pointed at him casually. , “The lady wearing the blue silk scarf…”

When the female reporter stood up, the hands held high by the others immediately retracted, grabbed the pen, and prepared to write something at any time.

The female reporter named by Mr. President waited for a little quiet in the Conference Hall and asked, Mr. President, since yesterday, people have discovered that the war bonds issued abroad cannot be cashed. What can we do? , What can you do?”

Some reporters frowned, this question is not sharp enough, it is very ordinary, it can be said to be of little value, because these questions are not asked, the president or his news The official will say it at the end, which is tantamount to wasting an opportunity to ask questions.

But since I asked, lets record it.

Mr. President showed his composure and calmness, and he almost opened his mouth. “We have urgently contacted the bond-issuing country, and the federal embassy abroad is also in urgent consultation with the local government.”< /p>

“So far we have not come up with any effective solutions for the time being, but I can assure the people that we are not wasting every second, our ambassador, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I havent taken a break from yesterday to now.”

“If there is any new development, I will immediately announce it to the society!”

An answer in a satisfactory manner, without any bright spots, Some reporters gave up on recording halfway through. This answer can use the draft directly.

Generally speaking, news conferences such as the presidents speech will have a briefing. The above are more official answers and core ideas. The mainstream media will respect the content of this briefing and will not change the core Based on some processing.

But some not-so-mainstream media dare to speak. They always make a serious press conference look like a conspiracy press conference. They also rely on this Ways to get more readers and subscriptions.

After that, some lucky reporters were named and asked questions. The questions asked by these reporters were too modest. This disappointed many reporters because the question and answer session of this press conference was again Become a one-man show of Mr. President.

This situation is becoming more and more common. When Mr. President first took office, he would not arrange these reporters to make the press conference stable. At that time, he was very passionate. , Can look now.

Almost every press conference he personally participated in was like this. It was full of official questions and answers. There will be no surprises in the whole conference.

Dont those “official media” themselves feel sick?

Actually, it doesnt matter whether you are nauseated or not. Whats important is how you can avoid embarrassment when the current situation is uncertain.

After half an hour, the press conference was over, Mr. President left quickly, and his press officer took over his job.

Reporters still dont need to think about getting valuable answers from the news officer, because when the question becomes sharp, he will say that he is just a news officer and can only answer pre-prepared answers. The answer is still helpless, and deeply feel helpless.

After coming out of the conference room, the president took off some electronic devices that made him feel uncomfortable. These gadgets weighed several kilograms and hanging on the body was not a good experience.

He returned to his office and recruited the chief of staff and the staff. He needed some suggestions and countermeasures to solve the current problems.

Some things cannot be dragged.

“Mr. President, we discussed for a day yesterday and finally came to a conclusion, but…”, he looked at other people, then at Mr. President, “but you may not like it “

Mr. President frowned, “What’s the answer?” He said, “cracking a joke” in a way that didn’t have a cracking a joke tone. “For example, let me submit my resignation to Congress?”

This is obviously not a funny joke. The chief of staff laughed twice, “We think the best thing we should do now is to let things develop naturally and give some simple answers if necessary. This is more in line with Our current situation, and our position.”

Mr. Presidents brows became tighter and tighter, and he cut out his ears, “Sorry, I dont quite understand what youre talking about, I can say more Is it more detailed?”

The chief of staff began to explain in more detail, “We will do nothing for the time being, because no matter what we do, it is difficult for us to change the attitudes of those countries. They will give us impossible Redeem, especially for these victorious countries.”

The war bonds that could not be redeemed mainly came from the victorious countries. The defeated countries were willing to redeem these bonds and made an announcement in the name of the country. They postponed a year to exchange for international society Those bonds issued before the war in China, and based on the original redemption ratio, increased by 15%.

But everyone knows that when they can cash out, the money and currency they give will be worthless.

The president is nodded, he knows that, “Then your solution is to do nothing?” He leaned back, not seeing any changes in attitude and expression, “Then how can I Citizens explain?”

The chief of staff quickly corrected some small mistakes in his words, “It is not you who explain to the people, but how the countries that refuse to honor them will explain to the ordinary people in the international society! “

“In fact, the staff of the staff agreed that this is actually a good thing, because we inadvertently solved some very key issues, and transferred the contradiction from the different positions of the two governments to a problem. Between the national government and the ordinary people of the entire international society.”

“Before this, the failure of these victorious countries to honour their bonds could be said to be a national behavior. Their target was also the Baylor Federation where the country was an individual, but Now their opponents have become ordinary people, and they will have no shame by doing so.”

“We can unite some countries that face the same problems as we, even defeated countries, in the international Public opinion builds up momentum. In private, if one or two small countries can cash in part of their bonds, this can break the trust between the victorious alliance.”

“For more important things, we can use’ Protecting the legitimate rights and benefits of the people’as an excuse to unite a part of the strength in the international society, the facts prove that complete isolation is not advisable!”

Mr. President listened and thought carefully, and had to talk about the staff These things that I have said do have merit. As the biggest supporter of the isolation policy, Mr. President has actually realized the drawbacks of the isolation policy at this time.

When Baylor Federation is in trouble, no one will stand up and give him a certain amount of help. Because of his isolation in the international society, he does not have the slightest status. This is also the victorious country can freely use Baylor Federation. s reason.

His thoughts spread very quickly, his fingers tapped on the desktop unconsciously, “Neutral Nations League?”

The chief of staff slightly nodded, this is the idea behind him Since isolationism has been determined to be unworkable, use another relatively modest way to change the current position of Baylor Federation in the international society.

Considering that Mr. President came to power through this policy, they will unite some neutral countries without changing their neutral stance, so that they will not make the people feel the failure of isolationism, and at the same time they can take advantage of the people Our power to solve some problems can be said to be the perfect solution.

“So what about the people who are making trouble outside?” Mr. President quickly finalized the decision and asked a very sharp question.

If the chief of staff pointedly said, “There must be some people responsible for this matter…”

Scapegoat, the man behind the pot, this kind of gameplay is no longer known After using how many years, it is so simple that almost everyone knows this situation, but people just use this set.

Mr. President nodded, “If there are no other methods, just do it, I hope we can see the results as soon as possible.”
