Brand Master [Comprehensive Yingmei]

As soon as the agreed time arrived, the familiar sound of high-heeled shoes "da da" came from the corridor.

Hal, who had come to the conference room earlier, moved his ears, stood up almost subconsciously, and opened the door for the unlucky big devil who couldn't take care of himself.

However, the moment Hal walked to the door, the heavy metal door was pushed open from the outside, and Vera stood expressionlessly at the door, nodding at him.

Hal was taken aback for a moment, and then he noticed that standing outside the door was not only Vera, but also Superman, Wonder Woman and Colonel Trevor.

At this moment, Superman was standing one step beside Vera, he turned sideways, his long arms went around Vera, and propped up the door for her, while Diana and Trevor were one step behind, walking in front of Vera not too far away. Pull back.

What is strange is that the atmosphere between these four people is almost frozen.

"Good morning, you—"

In the middle of saying hello, I always felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere of these four people. Hal hesitated and turned his eyes to the four of Vera.

Bear the brunt of it is Superman, the most wrong is also this person.

You know, Superman's aura has always been extremely tyrannical.Not only did his face and body look like a sculpture, but even the posture he stood there looked like a robot, with a straight spine and a straight body.

Coupled with his unsmiling appearance and magnetic deep voice, he looks particularly serious.

However, now, his whole body presents an extremely distorted and awkward appearance, his back is slightly bent, his standing posture is slightly cautious, his mouth is pursed and his head is lowered, revealing a feeling of aggrieved, that The blue eyes that were half closed in both directions were fixedly staring at Vera beside her.

The entrance of the conference room was only that wide. He was such a big, muscular man, but he insisted on standing sideways beside Vera, and stood against the wall, huddled into a ball.

Hal: "..."

Hal inexplicably thought of the big golden retriever raised by the neighbor next door when he was a child, and he also looked like this when he made a mistake and was punished by his master.

Diana and Trevor both showed a strange distorted expression, as if they were struggling for something, and they seemed to be holding back a smile.

Trevor pursed his lips tightly, his eyes drifted, and he didn't look at Superman when he looked up and down, but Diana obviously couldn't hold it anymore, she had been looking at Superman with a gloating look.

As for Vera... I don't know if it's an illusion, Hal always feels that there seems to be something wrong with her attitude towards Superman?

The entire Justice League knows that Vera was hired by Batman, so she usually has the most conversations with Batman (although they are all about business), and when facing Superman, she has always been distant and polite.

But at this time, she let Superman open the door for her, without even throwing a glance at him, just walked into the conference room expressionlessly, leaving only the man with a ruthless back.

Superman & Hal: "..."

Diana, who watched a good show just now: "...Pfft!"

When several people walked into the meeting room, not to mention Hal, even Shazam, who was the least concerned with the atmosphere, noticed that the Great Demon King Vera deliberately ignored Superman, and it was obvious that he was losing his temper.

Looking at Clark, who was still sitting at the front, with a black face and a moldy look, except for Diana, who was laughing to death, everyone looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

Sitting in the front as well, he noticed the real reason for Vera's move at a glance, and Bruce immediately "...".

Recalling the incident when the girl suddenly asked him to install a tracker on her car a few days ago, feeling the resentment from a certain Kryptonian on the side constantly radiating towards him, he turned his head nonchalantly, pretending not to see it.

Vera came to Zhenglian this time because of the promotion of Zhenglian's achievements.

You must know that since the establishment of the Justice League, the greatest achievement has been "repelling the alien invaders in the Washington War". Other than that, there seems to be no achievements that can be discussed and cheered by the public.

At this time, more than half a year has passed since the Great War in Washington, and everyone, including the residents of Washington City, is slowly fading their enthusiasm for this matter. When mentioning Zhenglian's rescue of Washington, it always gives people a feeling of "eating their laurels". The feeling of "bombastic".

But the problem is that during the past six months, the superheroes are not as indifferent as everyone imagined. They actually did a lot of things, which can be said to be conscientious.

For example, Superman, he always disappears from time to time every day, just to solve various emergencies in Metropolis, Washington and other places.

Another example is the Green Lantern, he guards the entire fan, so most of the time, he is defending the earth against hidden alien invaders.

However, almost no one knows about their achievements.

why?

Because there is no channel to publicize these exploits.

Before, under the coercion of the Walker government and various interest groups, no authoritative media would report on this matter except those who were actually rescued by superheroes.

In other words, those who want to report these will not have this opportunity to get in touch with the first scene, and those who do not want to report these will directly seal up Chaoying's credit information.

And even when reporters have to report certain emergencies due to many reasons, they will only focus on the atrocities of the bad guys, the tragedy on the scene and the poor victims. For the superheroes who really resolve the crisis... More is to mention a sentence lightly at the end.

Take Wonder Woman personally, Diana happened to be in New York a few days ago, preventing a group of gangsters from robbing a bank.

At that time, Diana knocked down more than a dozen people on the other side by herself, and the New York police were forced to lie dormant outside the bank for the whole time due to the firepower of the other side. They didn't rush in to save people until Diana dealt with all the villains, acting as a supporting role.

However, in the media’s follow-up report on this matter, the author wrote:

"Thanks to the cooperation and efforts of the police and Wonder Woman, all hostages are safe and sound."

As soon as the report was issued, all readers who read this sentence took it for granted that the police and Wonder Woman cooperated to solve the case.

Moreover, in view of the fact that the name of the policeman was before Diana in the report, everyone also acquiesced that the policeman was the one who contributed the most, and the heroine was just helping out.

Just such a fluffy sentence took away all the credit from Diana, and put this credit, which was enough to win an honorary commendation and improve her personal reputation, on the head of the police.

Diana herself didn't care about this, she thought it would be fine as long as the hostages were rescued, and besides, it would be fine if the police didn't follow her in, so as not to get in the way.

But Trevor was so angry that he had a gloomy face for several days.

Not only Diana, but the other six people also encountered this situation more or less.

This situation will be caused, on the one hand, because the Justice League really does not have the awareness of "publicizing their achievements", and on the other hand, it is also because they have never trusted a channel before.

They didn't care, but Vera cared.

"Listen, in the field of public opinion, if you don't speak up, it's tantamount to handing over the battlefield to others and losing without a fight."

Because of her injury, it was rare for Vera to stand on the stage without rules, but instead sat at the round table, speaking in a calm and unhurried manner.

"So, you have to stand up, take the initiative to speak out, and tell the public what you have done-I don't ask you to do ten points and then say ten points, you do ten points, even if you say three points, I will There is a way to work for you."

"seriously."

Vera glanced at everyone with a subtle expression, and sighed helplessly, "As long as you have a little vanity, or have Walker's eloquence, your reputation would not be so bad before the Justice League was established."

Recalling the Super Seven and the previous stage, it is simply the black superpowers of the whole people. Everyone hates and fears them-in the final analysis, it is because the superheroes have no "speaking" string at all.

Really. A good hand played poorly.

Through Cyborg and Bruce, Vera looked through all the battles they had experienced before, and after reading it, she just wanted to help her forehead.

Forget about Batman, just based on Green Lantern's record of repelling alien invaders countless times and protecting the entire fan, including the earth, if he publicizes well and let the public know what Green Lantern has done for them, he He has already become a god under the support of everyone!How could it still be chased by the air force and fly all over the sky?

In the current situation of public opinion, there is no such concept as "deep wine is not afraid of deep alleys". If the superheroes do not spread the aroma of the wine, those jealous bystanders can rush forward and seal the whole alley directly. Keep people from discovering Chaoying's "wine".

At this point, Walker has done much better than the Justice League.

As the president, he is well versed in the true meaning of propaganda and boasting, even if he has done three points of practical things, he must boast seven points of credit.

And if he successfully completed the seven points, he would have to advertise himself as the most outstanding and perfect one among the previous presidents, attribute all the achievements to himself, and boast that he was a god descended from the world.

Not only that, but many of the previous achievements of Superman and Wonder Woman were taken by Walker, and the doves occupied the magpie's nest, which became his own credit.

"It doesn't matter if you hand over the previous achievements to others, to the police and to Walker, but this time it won't work."

Vera paused, frowned slightly, looked at everyone seriously, and said word by word:

"Since you have successfully destroyed Hydra's main base, if you don't want to suffer retaliation from the other party's remnants in the field of public opinion because of this matter afterwards, you'd better do what I said."

In the past, Vera didn't care about it, but now that she was standing here, it was impossible for her to let these seven people foolishly give away the credit.

The credit for destroying the Hydra base is definitely not for people to pick peaches.

Because this incident is too complicated, it involves major issues such as Captain America's position, international issues in the Canadian territory, and internal penetration of S.H.I.E.L.D. Get the word out.

Hearing this, Steel Bone frowned immediately, he glanced at Trevor hesitantly, and said hesitantly:

"...However, when Vasque came to us before, he already stated that he hoped that we would handle this matter in a low-key manner and not make too much noise."

Vera: "..."

She also glanced at Trevor, and said with certainty: "You agreed?"

Crowd: "..."

Congratulations, you got it right_(:з)∠)_

A few days ago, when Vera was still recuperating in the hospital bed, Vasque asked Trevor to lead the way, and stopped the Chaoying team to discuss this issue in advance.

The chief of staff of the White House first showed a sincere gratitude, and sincerely expressed his gratitude and apology to everyone in the Justice League.

She never mentioned the incident of the Superheroes making a big fuss about S.H.I.E.L.D. Instead, she said "you are doing the right thing" and "Mr. President is very grateful for your efforts", and she farted enough rainbow farts on the Justice League.

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, even if everyone knew that Vasque was not kind, with this person's attentive and careful attitude, it was not easy to just drive her out.

After everyone's expressions calmed down a little bit, Vasquey raised his intentions, saying that he hoped that the superheroes would not publicize their destruction of the Hydra base and deal with the matter as low-key as possible.

"You fought bloody battles on the front lines and won quickly. You are America's well-deserved superheroes."

Vasquel said softly, "I can also understand your inner feelings - the feats paid for by blood and pain cannot be known to the public, but please believe me, Mr. President's request is also for the good of everyone."

Knowing her reason for coming, the Justice League at that time just wanted to hehe.

Facing Vasquel, who rarely showed a weak state, none of the seven people was sympathetic. Even Bruce kept his mouth shut, pretending not to hear this person's request.

Hal even sneered shamelessly.

He stepped forward, and just wanted Vasque to get out, when he heard the other party continue to whisper:

"Hydra is the most notorious Nazi unit in World War II. After the war, this name should be lost in history with the disappearance of the Nazis. If the public knows that this organization is still in operation, The panic it caused was tantamount to Hitler crawling back from hell."

"!"

Everyone's expressions changed slightly, Hal's movement of chasing people was even more abrupt, and he stared at Vasquel coldly.

Vasque's meaning is actually very clear. The purpose of her and Walker is to weaken Zhenglian, so as to prevent Zhenglian's reputation from continuing to increase, so as not to be difficult to control.

However, she was still able to persuade Zhenglian from the perspective of righteousness:

The exposure of an organization like Hydra will cause panic among the public!It will cause economic and political turmoil!

You are superheroes, superheroes should not let these things happen, superheroes should bear the burden, for the sake of world peace, what is a little prestige?

Understanding the threat hidden in Vasque's words, Clark and Hal's faces turned green, obviously disgusted.

"Besides—"

Vasquel paused for a moment, his voice was soft and quiet,

"I think that with the ferocity of Hydra, the safety of Ms. Senna, who was unfortunately targeted, is also a serious issue, isn't it?"

——Look, I already know that you have found that very famous advertising master privately without telling us. Of course we don't care about it, but what about the personal safety of that Ms. Senna?

Since Hydra still has remnants of power, the most important thing you should do now is not to disclose this organization, but to continue to investigate and track those escaped Hydra!

From a general point of view, it is the people who will cause unnecessary panic and the economic and political turmoil that is likely to be caused. Even Batman cannot disagree.

From a selfish point of view, it was Vera's personal safety, which made it even more impossible for everyone who was already worried about Vera to refuse.

The Walker government threw two cards so lightly, blocking the possibility of "publicity" by the members of the Justice League.

To be honest, before Vera mentioned it, everyone in Zhenglian had never considered exposing the Hydra story, nor did they have the idea of ​​publicizing their own achievements—but the reason behind Vasquez’s troubles is indeed so One thing, but nauseating.

It was like a mouthful of sticky phlegm that couldn't be washed off. Although it was harmless, it was just disgusting.

The atmosphere in the cabin was suddenly tense, someone clenched their fists, but no matter how everyone wanted Vasquey to get out.

He also had to temporarily promise her to temporarily keep Hydra's infiltration of the government a secret.

In the meeting room, after listening to Steel Bone's narration and the recording at that time, Vera closed her eyes severely and took a few deep breaths.

Her chest heaved violently a few times, and a trace of unusual thin anger faintly appeared on her cheeks, but she quickly regained her composure.

When he opened his eyes again, those lake-green eyes turned to Bruce unceremoniously, and he said with tolerance and understanding:

"Since this is the case, then the Justice League will continue to follow the original style this time and keep a low profile."

Although Vera said so, her tone was indeed as calm and calm as before, but the few people present couldn't help turning their eyes away, their eyes drifted, and they didn't dare to look at a certain big demon king who was obviously angry .

Especially Trevor, he kept his head down almost the whole time, minimizing his sense of existence as much as possible.

In the stiffness and silence, Bruce twitched the corners of his mouth, and asked in a certain insightful tone:

"What do you need them for?"

"Nothing is needed."

Vera opened her eyes wide and tilted her head innocently, "According to what Ms. Vasque said, Zhenglian really can't take the initiative to disclose this achievement. You need to keep a low profile."

——However, Vasque never said that she, Vera Senna, needs to keep a low profile.

Dare to bully Zhenglian in such a righteous way, really think she died on the hospital bed, right? !

Facing the increasingly frightened eyes of the troubled children, Vera directed Clark to dial his cell phone and contact Steve again.

"Captain? I'm Senna."

Thinking of Vasquina's natural tone in the recording, Vera's eyes flashed coldly, but her tone was still gentle and calm.

"The theme of my second manuscript has been determined. I hope you can come to Washington to meet me. What theme? Ah... that's the theme I mentioned last time—but, I hope you can come to Washington to meet me. form to create."

What is the small X chart?

Why don't you play with the big ones, Steve, you start creating X comics for me now!
