Brand Master [Comprehensive Yingmei]

Chapter 37 In the Name of Justice

While Vera and Superman were struggling with filming, on the other side, Steve Trevor received another call from White House chief of staff Linda Wasquez.

On the phone, Vasquez urged Trevor in his usual stern voice, asking him to do a good job on the superhero side as soon as possible.

"You have to let them know that the current public opinion situation is not optimistic."

Vasquez urged coldly, "The White House has tried its best to coordinate for the superheroes, but the efforts of the White House alone cannot solve the problem!"

Before he met Vera, Trevor would definitely be devastated when he heard these words, and maybe he would be fooled into dissuading the superhero from peace talks with the White House and giving up some management rights to the government.

But after being woken up by Vera's words, he heard Vasque's words again—there was no wavering in his heart, and he even wanted to laugh a little.

What does it mean that the public opinion situation is not optimistic?What is trying to coordinate public opinion for superheroes?

To put it bluntly, isn't it because of the promotion of the current military industry group that you have lost the initiative, for fear that the Super Seven will really disband, and Walker will have no way to use it to control it!

Vasquez's condescending commanding posture was just a way to make him anxious.

"Walker miscalculated a bit."

Vera once said to Trevor:

"They think the Super Seven cares as much about fame as they do themselves, and they try to use public opinion to force the superheroes to compromise-these politicians are always too self-centered, stupid."

You know, before the Great War in Washington, the reputation of these seven people can be said to be not very good. Before they were officially called "superheroes", the media described them as "freaks", "lunatics", and "inhumans". class of words.

-- if they really cared, they wouldn't have stood up for the Washington fight.

Therefore, in the current crisis of public opinion, if everyone refuses to watch it under Vera's urging, they will naturally not be annoyed. Trevor also calmed down and did not step on the trap set by the White House at all.

Seeing this, Vasque became even more anxious.

She started calling Trevor over and over again, and at the beginning she was cold and self-possessed, relying on her being the chief of staff to issue orders to Trevor unceremoniously.

Later, under the instigation of Obadiah and others, public opinion gradually tilted towards the trend of "banning superheroes". Pressed, the tone gradually became anxious, and showed a pleading attitude.

Thinking of the arrogance of this lady who blackmailed the Super Seven before Vera showed up, and seeing how angry she was when she tried to hold back her anger and humbly "please" Trevor to appease Chaoying when she made a phone call. , Trevor almost suffocated from laughing, he was so refreshed!

According to Vera's words, "Leaving the White House in the air", Trevor gloated and watched the miserable situation of the government and the military as if being roasted on the fire, and asked Batman: "When shall we do it?"

"Wait for Senna."

Batman is succinct.

On the third day after Superman participated in the filming, Vera finally finished her busy preparations, rushed to the secret base of the Super Seven again, and called everyone for a brief meeting.

It was said to be a meeting, but it was actually Teacher Vera's on-the-spot evaluation of the homework assigned to the students last time.

Vera: "I have no problem here, how do you think about the name of your team?"

"—Assault Rescue Control Team! How?"

Green Lantern was the first to answer, triumphantly, "It perfectly covers the three most important tasks we shoulder! Is it enough to be a brand name?"

Crowd: "..."

It sounds like that is the case, but I always feel... something is wrong?

"Combat rescue controller?"

Vera glanced at Green Lantern, and said calmly, "You can come up with this name, it seems that you have a deep relationship with the US Air Force."

The most famous in the U.S. Air Force is CCT (CombatControllersTeam). No matter how you look at this name, it seems to be plagiarized ==

Green Lantern Hal Jordan, who was almost knocked out of his vest by Vera's casual words: "..."

Depend on!He thought of a name!So the vest is almost gone? ?

Looking at Vera, the hairs on his back stood up, and he turned his head away pretending not to hear, never mentioning the dog's name again.

"Alliance of Warriors!"

Wonder Woman was full of momentum, she stared closely at Vera, showing a confident and beautiful smile, "This will let everyone know that we are all fighters fighting to protect the world!"

Although they didn't study hard before, they still listened carefully in class. Green Lantern and Cyborg glanced at Wonder Woman together, the corners of their mouths twitching slightly.

I can understand what Diana is thinking, but... warrior?

In the current public opinion environment, using such a cold name, isn't it obvious that people are hostile to them?

failed!

Diana capitalized FAIL on her homework!

"I think...the Warrior Alliance is too blunt."

The Flash thought for a while and asked Vera, "Miss Senna, how about the voice of peace?"

He is very serious: "Our original intention of becoming heroes is not to fight or become warriors. We are protecting the peace of the world and speaking out for peace."

Everyone present was stunned.

I have to say that the name Flash came up with is really much better than the "air force copy" and "Valkyrie version". At least Vera finally set her sights on Flash, and praised:

"It's a good idea and can be taken into consideration."

Counting it all, this is the first time Vera has clearly expressed her appreciation for someone in front of the Super Seven.

Stared at by Vera's eyes full of kindness, Flash rubbed his nose in embarrassment: "It's too good."

"There are still deviations."

Batman didn't nod, he glanced at Vera, and calmly drew the other's attention back, and said in a deep voice:

"The concept of peace involves too much. If you are not careful, you will easily be involved in political games. I don't agree."

This sentence was said without thinking, but Vera understood it all at once. She took a deep look at Batman and immediately reached a consensus with the man.

If it is really the Voice of Peace, will they help or not help any wars between countries or regions in the future?

If they want to make a move, they will become the private army of a certain side. If they don't make a move, the code name of peace will become the biggest constraint.

——“What about the Voice of Justice?”

Superman, who had been sitting silently by the side, spoke abruptly. He also understood the communication between Batman and Vera, and calmly pulled Vera back from Batman:

"From the very beginning, we have been speaking out for justice."

Not because of pure peace, not to prove their fighting power, and not to fight for the sake of fighting—the seven people standing here, from the beginning to the end, the most fundamental reason for standing up is to pursue justice.

Everyone looked over with bright eyes.

"Voice of Justice?"

The Flash and Green Lantern looked at each other, and both laughed at the same time.

"Sounds like a better name than I thought, and I support it."

Wonder Woman pondered for a moment, then admitted frankly.

Shazam and Cyborg also had no objections. As for Trevor, he was already so positive that he wanted to call Vasque.

Batman didn't speak, he was still in deep thought.

As for Vera, she chewed the name "Voice of Justice" back and forth twice, and under everyone's expectant gaze and Superman's somewhat nervous gaze, she shook her head:

"not good."

All:! ? ?

Superman pursed his lips.

Wonder Woman and Green Lantern, who have clearly grown to like the name, froze at the same time:

"why?!"

"What's wrong!?"

"I don't use the Voice of Justice because the name doesn't suit you."

Vera propped one hand on the edge of the table, leaned slightly, and carefully looked at everyone present, with bright eyes and a deep voice:

"Why do you insist on belittling yourself and thinking that you are speaking out for justice?"

In an instant, everyone could clearly see that Vera seemed to be smiling, and she asked in a calm tone, word by word:

"What is the Voice of Justice? Your name should be the Justice League—because you are justice, so why pursue justice?"

——! ?

Like a thunderstorm in the dark night, it instantly split the entire darkness, and like a monstrous tsunami, it rushed away all obstacles.

Vera just said that lightly, but everyone felt the arrogance and ambition to control everything in her words.

Superman's eyes flew towards Vera as if chasing the sun, the ice blue pupils were astonishingly bright.

Not only him, everyone's eyes widened, looking at Vera standing on the stage in astonishment.

She just stood there so coldly and arrogantly, and asked softly:

"What? You dare not use it?"

Why don't you dare to tell the world clearly that you are justice?

He obviously sacrificed so much for the sake of the world, why should he be notorious?

The brain is buzzing, the heart is pounding, from the condensed eyes to the trembling spine - this light, cool question is like a faint flame, igniting everyone up.

"Who do you look down on!"

Green Lantern was the first to jump up again. His body was full of emerald green light, and his aura seemed to be about to explode. He squinted at Vera and raised his jaw:

"Justice League, right? Who disagrees? Stand up!"

Everyone turned their heads in tacit understanding at the same time, and looked at Batman sitting in the front, and the latter raised his head at some point, looking deeply at Vera without blinking.

After a few seconds of silence, the man in black armor hooked his mouth.

"Trevor."

Batman turned his head to stop the stunned colonel, and said calmly, "Now, it's time for a showdown with the White House."

"In the name of the Super Seven?"

"Do not."

Batman stood up and answered hoarsely but firmly:

— "In the name of the Justice League."

……

Even if Vera is inconvenient to come forward, with Batman in charge, there will be no problem negotiating with the White House.

After so many days, Walker and his staff were almost bald because of the Chaoying issue. At first glance, Trevor finally persuaded the Chaoying to compromise, so he opened a bottle of champagne to celebrate.

Linda Wasque rushed over with a few staff members, trying to suppress Trevor from all aspects, taking advantage of Trevor's inability to negotiate politically.

However, Batman, who has dealt with Gotham's political circles for countless times, can see through all their small actions just by meeting them face to face. Not only that, but with a few casual words, he has completely grasped the initiative of the negotiation In their own hands.

The government wants to deepen cooperation with superheroes?

Welcome!Superheroes are absolutely willing to cooperate, and it is no problem to talk about specific measures in the future.

Is the White House worried about the current public opinion dilemma of superheroes?

Thank you, we don't really care too much, anyway, we are used to being blamed before... what?Do you care?We don't mind if you help maintain it, please?

How many more people does Walker want to add to the superhero team?

sure!But add a few more people, first of all these people have to pass the superhero test, right?Of course, heroes can't be played casually. In addition, since the number of people needs to be increased, the name Super Seven is really bad, what should we do?

Trevor, who was completely speechless, stared dumbfounded at the deal between Batman, who had always been cold and silent, and the cunning Vasquez. Not only did he not suffer, he even gained the upper hand!

At the end of the first round of negotiations, Vasquez only got a flimsy promise. No specific regulations were negotiated, but he had to agree to Batman to use the government media to help superheroes publicize their new plan. name.

Considering that Chaoying doesn't see rabbits or hawks.

He didn't get any benefits, but Vasquey, who had to pay first, was so angry that he could only knock out his teeth and swallow his blood.

She smiled hospitablely at Batman who was negotiating: "The name Justice League is very good. I will report to the president and hope that we can reach a closer cooperation."

- No wonder!

What kind of freak is Batman!It's just a lifeless bat monster, why is it so familiar with politics=negotiation? ?

Secretly decided to tell Trevor not to bring Batman with him in the next negotiation. After Vasquel returned, he began intensively contacting the media under the Democratic Party and officially renamed the Super Seven as the Justice League.

At that time, both Vasquez and others believed that the name change of "Justice League" was very beneficial to the cooperation between Chaoying and the government.

The name Justice League can highlight the positions of these superpowers more than the Super Seven, which can greatly alleviate the negative public opinion during this period.

If the government incorporates superheroes in the future, it actually means: "Since the Walker government can include the Justice League under its command, then the federal government's position is also just."

——This is very "American", and it is also a win-win situation.

To this end, Walker held a special press conference.

He solemnly asked people to write a three-page speech, one and a half pages of which were all about the new name "Justice League", trying to make the whole of the United States familiar with the name "Justice League" as soon as possible, and make preparations for the subsequent inclusion. Prepare.

At the same time, all the media under the Democratic Party finally let go of their hands and feet. They pumped up their horsepower and frantically publicized the new code name of the superhero, while fighting against the media instructed by Obadiah and others to win public opinion.

Although the latter has had little effect, and the attitude of the entire public opinion towards superheroes is still vigilant and full of hostility, but on the bright side, it is precisely because of the Walker government's propaganda and the quarrel between the two parties that the "Justice League" This name became well known in just four days.

After all, Walker is an official channel, and his news speeches will get headlines.

Therefore, even the most remote states, people who pay the least attention to the Internet and TV, have begun to know the existence of the "Justice League" and know that the "Justice League" is derived from the "Super Seven".

Many people ridiculed Walker on the Internet, thinking that he was "eager to incorporate superheroes, and deliberately changed the Super Seven into a nondescript Justice League", "ugly food", and "clumsy methods".

There are also people who support Walker, who believe that the federal government's ability to recruit superheroes and rename the Super Seven as the "Justice League" is an expression of responsibility to American society.

——Everyone is not an idiot. Seeing that the media of the Democratic Party are desperately advocating the renaming of the Super Seven to the Justice League, they can basically guess that this is a preparation for the cooperation between the government and the superheroes.

When the name of the Justice League is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the government will take the opportunity to operate and incorporate the Justice League.

Many ordinary people can see it, and arms dealers can naturally see it, so during this period of time, since Walker held a press conference, their wind direction has changed immediately.

Among them, the "Los Angeles Tribune" and "New York Express" simply began to re-incite people's distrust of the federal government, and they even wrote "Who Can Be Responsible for America?" "As the title, wrote a long analysis draft.

In this article, they first analyzed the upcoming cooperation between the government and Chaoying, and then listed a series of nasty scandals since Walker came to power, such as "health care reform" and "Secretary of State's Choice", to criticize Walker, and asks:

Whether it is the Justice League or the Super Seven, in the final analysis, they always have the tyrannical strength enough to destroy a country.

However, is an extremely irresponsible president like Walker who has made frequent mistakes since he took office, really qualified to master these seven superheroes?

As soon as this report came out, Obadiah and other arms dealers got more and more support from the public opinion, while Walker was so angry that he immediately ordered Vasquerade to increase the promotion of the "Justice League".

"Release the influence materials and live photos of these seven superpowers who saved people in the Washington War, and I will immediately create a harmless image for them!"

Walker pinched the article "Who Can Be Responsible for the United States?" "News, gritted his teeth authentically.

"However, in this way, if the reputation of those people with super powers improves again, will they still be willing to cooperate with us?"

Vasquez and the rest of the staff were a little hesitant, "Do we need to consult Frank on this matter..."

"no need!"

Walker overturned the documents on the table, glanced at Vasque, and said coldly,

"What do you think those monsters can do? After this incident, even if they understand the cause and effect, what can they do with us?"

"They have no voice channel, no public relations means, all black history and reputation are in our hands - I want to promote them as heroes, I push them, if I don't want to push them, I have to step down, Justice League? But if they have a brain , you should know the fate of offending me!"

Vasque's face became serious, and he left in a hurry.

The next day, following Walker's actions, many people recalled the frightening Battle of Washington, and public opinion tilted a lot towards the Chaoying side.

As the media on both sides sprayed each other and refuted each other at the same time, the topic of the Justice League gradually heated up.

Many people stand on the side of "supporting Chaoying" today, and stand on the camp of "anti-chaoying" tomorrow. After a while, they will give a thumbs up when they see that what is said here makes sense, and then tweet when they see that the theory is sufficient... In short, swinging between the two sides, no final conclusion can be drawn.

Just as Walker and Obadiah were fighting each other, making the public gradually confused and difficult to make a choice, an unknown self-media suddenly released a photo.

The photo is titled: "Can't Believe It! I Met a Real Superman!"

——Vera Senna, the king of bombs.
