Chapter 21: This is My Stage, How Can I Not Perform?

Chapter 21 This is My Stage, How Can I Not Perform?

After the bombardment of newspapers and TV shows, the few cities near Kerry City were in a state of unrest.

Many gangsters and robbers took advantage of the chaos in the cities to break into the shops and buy things for zero yuan[1].

More people stood up.

They put on special clothes, pulled up banners, and paraded on the streets, shouting slogans and their own demands.

“Destroy Kerry City. A City of Sin like this should not exist in the world.”

“Survivors shouldn’t exist. They’re a scourge in Kerry City.”

“I request to strengthen the defense. Only by strengthening the defense can we feel at ease.”

“What about the taxes? Take some more. We need a stronger wall.”

“Government, please respond.”

A group of people waved their flags in an attempt to gain more support, even getting the officials to take action.

The southeast region was controlled by the Johnson family, and only half of their power was out in the open.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the Johnson family was the number one family in the southeast region, but the most powerful one was still the regional government.

The representatives they had elected were speaking up for them.

At the same time.

The local representative, Charles, who was arranged by the Johnson family, appeared at the press conference in a suit after carefully dressing up.

“Hello everyone, I’m Charles, the representative of the southeast region. It’s a pleasure to meet you all.”

On camera, Charles’s solemn expression was just in line with his status.

After the cameras flashed for a while, he continued, “After the wall of Kerry City were bombed, I know everyone was worried. However, it’s not like we didn’t make any arrangements.”

“In a short period of time, we have passed two proposals.”

“The first proposal is for our government to take out 100 million yuan to continue to increase the strength of the defense network, which includes, but is not limited to, upgrading the weapons on the wall, adding a second wall, and even adding more garrison troops.”

“Of course, this amount of money is far from enough, so we hope that all the people will take action and donate a portion of the funds to make the entire defense network stronger.” “After all, the government’s annual funds have been arranged in a reasonable way. The first 100 million yuan is the 100 million yuan squeezed out after all the officials have discussed and adjusted it. It is to ensure the safety of all the people.”

“The second proposal is that we plan to set up drones in the sky above Kerry City and broadcast the images so that everyone can see the situation in Kerry City.” “However, our Southeast Regional Council doesn’t have enough power to make this decision. We need to make a request to the higher-level council, the Kremlin. I hope that everyone can actively speak up on this matter and express your determination to get more support.”

After the press conference ended, the local council members’ proposals were also published in the newspapers and appeared on the internet.

This caused a discussion among everyone in the southeast region.

The investment of 100 million yuan made everyone feel a little more at ease.

This meant that the government had not completely given up on them.

As for the situation that the local representatives were talking about, they completely understood.

Taxes were limited, but it was the best case scenario for them to donate money to strengthen the defense network. Seeing their own efforts strengthen the defense network also gave them a sense of pride.

As for the second decision, it was also very tempting

Ever since the disaster in Kerry City, people had seen it on the news reports many times.

Who knew if those photos were real or fake? If they could be broadcast live, the images they saw would definitely be real.

Even if they had to pay a price, they wanted to see the drone fly over the skies of Kerry City.

All in all, the press conference had calmed the people down a little.

In the beginning, it was mentioned that the high wall could stop the zombies, but the survivors had broken the balance.

The new measures were all targeted at survivors.

The people outside the wall were happy to see this.

After the press conference, Johnson, who had just finished his steak and was drinking red wine, waved his hand and asked his assistant to report on the situation.

After the news was published in the newspaper and the related TV segments were broadcasted, the demonstration by the people was completely within his expectations.

These people could only protest.

The 100 million yuan from the government in the proposal was just a gimmick. It was just a figure that the Johnson family had invested. The donations from the people were the real deal.

At that time, not only would the 100 million yuan be returned to the Johnson family’s account, but 70% of the money donated by the people would also be credited to the family’s account.

Looking at everyone’s praise for the local government, Johnson’s mouth curled into a mocking smile.

Indeed, only the appearance of danger would remind people of the savior.

When there was no danger, the people would always complain.

Now that there was a crisis, even if they were only given a little bit of sweetness, the people began to be grateful, afraid that the local government would not do it even if they explained.

The drone proposal was to lay the foundation.

If all of this had happened so simply, why would the people cherish it?

Only by making the process more tactful and difficult would everyone continue to be grateful, and at the same time, it would make the acquisition of wealth more smooth.

Perhaps…

In the hearts of the people, these people were all saviors, right?

Who was going to be the savior and the good

guy?

How could a savior be as comfortable as someone controlling and dominating everything?

After the assistant left, Johnson stretched his back.

These days were extremely boring. He should find something to do.

The local councilmen couldn’t be the only one in the limelight. It was time for him to show himself in front of the camera. Otherwise, everyone would only hear of his reputation and would get a little suspicious.

Johnson tapped his fingers on the table as he thought about the next step of his plan.

Perhaps… He should be standing on the high wall when the drone did the broadcasting.

After all, he was a member of the Sky Capital Alliance, and the drone’s livestream could be seen by everyone in the Sky Capital Alliance.

Just thinking about that scene made him feel extremely proud.

Not to mention, that action would increase his prestige even more.

He might even be able to see the scenery of Kerry City from afar. There was a world of difference between watching a city of zombies up close and watching a video. He was really looking forward to it!

Perhaps on that day, he would be able to witness the struggle of the ants in Kerry City.

‘The struggles of an ant!

That’s right, on the day of the live broadcast, I should make some arrangements.’

Only when the public saw the chaotic and bloody scene through the drone’s broadcast would it highlight the difficulty of climbing the high wall.

This was how it should be done!

‘On the day of the live broadcast, let Kerry City be a little more chaotic.

Gunfights, r*pe, the struggle of survivors, and the brutality of zombies, these scenes would become a script and be shown in the live broadcast of the drones that day.

As for the people who did these things, they were naturally the group of survivors he had raised in Kerry City.

After a dog was all grown up, it had to help its owner hunt for prey.

‘I’m really a genius to have thought of such a great idea!’

Johnson’s lips curled up, and he felt proud of his idea again.
