Suppress monsters and save the world

Chapter 397 Speech

the next day,
The studio, which could accommodate 200 people, was already overcrowded. Many people had no seats and had to stand. Their clothes clearly divided them into two sides, one side was blue and the other side was red.

Outside the TV station, demonstrators were even more crowded, and it was even more chaotic. A large number of police forces were deployed here to avoid bloody conflicts.

"Viewers and friends in front of the TV, welcome to watch. In 10 minutes, the United States of Eagles, Mr. Nathan Lane, Vice President, is about to start his televised speech. Let us wait patiently for that moment. Now, Let's jump into a short video and look back at the suffering we've had in recent months."

When the host's voice fell, the picture that everyone saw changed accordingly.

At the beginning of the video, there is a city in flames, Los Angeles. At the same time, a heavy narration sounded.

"Our country has suffered unimaginable blows in recent months. Here, it was originally the Los Angeles City Hall, here, the Los Angeles Tower, here, Green Park, here."

The camera is constantly changing, and all of these have been turned into ruins. What's more ironic is that on the ruins of the Los Angeles city government, there are still demonstrators standing, protesting the incompetence of the government.

Subsequently, the camera quickly pointed to the group of demonstrators, but as expected, when the camera was about to approach, the group of violent demonstrators smashed down the drone that was photographed.

The final shot was frozen, showing a ferocious face, an arrogant smile, and pairs of black feet.

"Our great country has indeed encountered this, but this chaos not only comes from the outside, but also from the inside." The video has not finished playing, but the voice of the narrator has been changed.

The TV screen switched accordingly, allowing people to see Nathan sitting on the high chair.

What he just said was what he said.

"Citizens, wherever you are, you who are watching this speech, please remember that my name is Nathan Lane, the Vice President of our great nation."

Nathan stood up from the chair, took two steps forward, and then continued: "First of all, I want to answer a question that everyone is very concerned about. Mr. President, he resigned yesterday due to a crime, so according to the regulations, now I will carry out the duties of acting President."

Nathan's words caused an uproar in the audience, but they did not cause much doubt. Someone had already analyzed the most likely situation, and it should be the decision made by the Republican Party to throw the blame on the president.

When the scene returned to calm, Nathan paused with a resolute expression and continued: "My citizens, I would like to offer my sincerest apologies for the situation our country is facing now."

Nathan's ninety-degree bow lasted for ten seconds, then straightened up and said: "But I hereby promise to restore the normal operation of social order within one month, otherwise, the Republican Party will no longer participate in the next election for the presidency!"

Nathan's second words were just like a bomb falling into the calm water, causing thousands of waves in an instant.

I'm afraid this person is crazy. No one in Eagle Country's history has dared to make such a promise!

To be honest, in normal TV speeches, the introduction part of the president or other politicians is basically garbage time, with false promises, false greetings, and unnutritious scenes, which can delay the time for half an hour. .

But Nathan's appearance broke this law, perhaps because of the special situation he was in now, Nathan only said a few words, and it aroused a huge reaction.

People scoffed at Nathan's apology in the first half of his sentence, but felt incredible about the promise after that.

Even if this televised speech ends here, it is enough to go down in history.

This reaction was of course expected by Nathan. After the scene became calm again, Nathan continued: "My commitment will be witnessed and supervised by all the citizens. Please wait and see."

"Next, I would like to apologize to all of you, whether the appearance of Los Angeles in the short film just now, a city that suffered from war, has touched your heart. If there are your relatives there, if this is the city you live in , if everything you see becomes like this.”

It is not certain how effective Nathan's empathetic speech will be. The only thing that is certain is that the emotions and attitudes displayed by Nathan are absolutely positive.

In 10 minutes, Nathan used his superb speaking skills to bring his speech to a perfect conclusion.

But this is not the highlight of this televised speech.

After nearly a minute of applause, the host continued: "Thank you, Mr. Nathan, for your sincere talk. Next, it is the most critical part of this televised speech. Representatives selected from all walks of life, you can enjoy Ask Mr. Vice President any question you want!"

"National citizens in front of the TV, you can also call us to ask your questions, or show your attitudes and opinions, let's get started!"

Is it finally here? Countless people in front of the TV are looking forward to it.

As soon as the host's voice fell, almost two-thirds of the people present raised their hands.

"This lady."

Nathan sat on the high chair again, and casually pointed to a middle-aged woman at the front.

The chosen lady didn't seem flustered, she got up decently and asked respectfully: "Mr. Nathan, what measures will you take to deal with the turmoil that Eagle Country is experiencing now?"

After asking the question, there was some silence.

To be honest, this issue is not at the center of the conflict. No one in the upper echelon cares about how it will get better, anyway, it will get better sooner or later.

They only care about what happens to their 'enemies'.

Such as terrorists, low-level people who take advantage of the fire, the elite, the president, and rival parties.

However, Nathan did not directly answer the lady’s question, and even went against public opinion and said:
"While I'm sorry, I can't lie, I have to say, it's what all of us are doing that is adding to the chaos in our country."

The lady stood up impatiently after hearing Nathan's answer: "Mr. Nathan, do you mean that we caused our country to become like this!"

This is what most people hear.

Suddenly, many people looked at Nathan with suspicion and unkindness in their eyes.

"Of course not. All of us are moving forward while being coerced. What is coercing us is a pile of quagmire. Although this quagmire is filthy, it is not the real reason why we face such a situation."

"Then Mr. Nathan, what is it?" Another person shouted.

"Our incompetent leader."
