Chapter 977: Run After You Showed-Off

Chapter 977 Run After You Showed-Off

In front of the pure white Presidential Palace of Coro City was a beautifully constructed lawn. On this lawn, the people of Xin gathered. They looked excited and focused on the stage.

In a round of applause, their beloved President Zhang Yaping stepped onto the stage, smiled, and waved his hand. He then cleared his throat and fixed the microphone.

“Today is a great day.”

“This morning, from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, our compatriots on the lunar colony have sent us 20 million kWh of electricity.”

“Maybe you are surprised, but I am now honored to announce this fact to you.”

“The breakthrough we have made in long-distance power transmission technology has enabled our grid to be connected to the power grid of the lunar colony!”

The long-suppressed cheers erupted, and countless people shook the Xin flag in their hands and celebrated this great moment. Sitting on a special guest’s seat, Jiang Chen who was looking at Zhang Yaping speaking in front of the stage, nodded and clapped.

After the whole audience quieted down, Zhang Yaping looked at the people with a smile, raised his hands, and loudly stated.

“All this time we had to pay for expensive electricity prices because of energy dependence, because of the high cost of nuclear power, and because of other reasons. We had to sacrifice the environment, sacrifice safety and sacrifice our children and grandchildren’s future, but now, I solemnly announce to all of you that all that has become history.”

The environmentalists in the audience looked at their president with excitement. Most of them were wearing green headscarves and green shirts, easily distinguishable from the crowd. Since the construction of the thermal power station and the nuclear power plant in Xin, they have raised their voices of opposition.

But now, all this has finally been rewarded!

Although it had nothing to do with their protests…

“From today, I announce.”

“Xin will systemically remove thermal power and nuclear power! Let this picturesque archipelago stay forever!”

“In addition, I am here to make a commitment. The basic electricity price of our country will be cut by ten times in one month!”

IIII

The cheers in the audience roared and Jiang Chen smiled at the excited crowd. Starting today, Xin will open a new chapter and usher in a new era of electrification.

Throughout the history of the world, the capital always played a pivotal role in the promotion of social progress. When the cost of electricity is infinitely compressed, energy-efficient electric equipment will naturally spread to every corner of society.

Because of this light from the Moon, Xin has already boarded the train to high speed development.

From pure electric vehicles to digital cities, the door to the future has now opened!

“…Now, please allow me to hand over the rest of this time to Mr. Jiang Chen, the president of Future Group.” In a round of applause, Zhang Yaping smiled warmly and welcomed Jiang Chen who slowly walked onto the stage, as he then retreat to the side.

After the thunderous applause quieted down a little, Jiang Chen cleared his throat and reached out to grab the microphone.

“Hello, everyone, I am Jiang Chen. I am honored to stand here and say hello to all of you.”

“As a responsible company, we will actively respond to the policies of the Xin government.”

“Here, I declare that starting today, Xin will shut down the first and last, nuclear power plant on Coro Island!”

The environmentalist broke out with cheers, and Jiang Chen nodded to the people with the green headscarves.

“Most of the facilities used in the nuclear power plant for nuclear reaction will be dismantled, leaving only one reactor for the production of deuterium. The original site of the nuclear power plant will be converted into a safe, harmless deuterium refinery by using separation from seawater.”

“Someone may ask, what is the deuterium used for? Is it used for nuclear weapons?”

“Before answering this question, I want to ask you to think about a problem first. From today, we will enjoy the electricity from the Moon. But how is the lunar colony generating electricity?”

“Solar? Many scholars and experts in the world guessed this.”

“But what I am saying here is that this is a misunderstanding.”

Looking at the crowd, Jiang Chen paused and raised his volume.

“In order to understand the possible misunderstandings, here I decided to open a document that belongs to the A-class confidential of Future Group!”

Jiang Chen noticed that when he mentioned the word confidential, the audience was silent, and everyone was waiting for him to continue. Especially the journalists as they already smelled ground-breaking news, and they want to capture every muscle on Jiang Chen’s face.

Under everyone’s gaze, Jiang Chen slowly said.

“Not just wireless power transmission, our biggest breakthrough is controllable nuclear fusion. As early as two months ago, the world’s first nuclear fusion generator using helium-3 and deuterium as fuel was built in the lunar colony!”

This sentence, like a deep-water bomb, was directly thrown into the crowd.

Including journalists, Xin citizens, and tourists, everyone blanked out for two seconds.

Through this gap, Jiang Chen wisely gave the position on the stage to Zhang Yaping, and hurriedly stepped down before the media came up.

Listening to the exclamations and shouts from behind him, a smile emerged on his face.

The feeling of showing off and running was certainly exciting.

Jiang Chen didn’t know how Zhang Yaping settled the chaos and appeased the reporters who rushed up onto the stage. After his speech, he went straight to the office at the presidential palace.

About half an hour later, Zhang Yaping, who announced the end of the speech, returned to the presidential palace and went straight back to his office.

After seeing Jiang Chen sitting in his office, he told the assistant to make two cups of black tea and then sat on the sofa opposite Jiang Chen.

“A very good speech; you have stolen my thunder.”

“Have I? Then I have to give my assistant who helped me write the speech a raise.”

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Jiang Chen tried the still hot black tea and mentioned something else. “It seems that you are confident with your campaign?”

“Of course,” Zhang Yaping laughed and squinted his eyebrows at Jiang Chen’s humorously. “The poll shows that our support rate is over 80%, far higher than the second Whig Party and the third Socialist Party. As long as this trend continues, I will still be sitting in this position for the next four years.”

Zhang Yaping cleverly used the phrase “our support rate.”

However, Jiang Chen just smiled. He gently stirred the black tea with a spoon and whispered, “This trend will continue.”

“It is said that the Whig Party is supported by the British government. They advocate promoting Xin to join the Commonwealth. The Socialist party is supported by the people on the other side of the Pacific. They advocate the restoration of UA governing Pannu Islands as in the 1970s and abolish defense contracting…”

“They won’t cause a stir.” Jiang Chen smiled and said casually, “The ghost is staring at them.”

A smile formed on Zhang Yaping’s face.

Compared to the young man who found Jiang Chen because of his ideals four years ago, he has now become a sleek and shrewd politician. He was very clear that as long as he holds the golden thigh of Future Group, his presidential status will be unshakable.

Jiang Chen, who needed a stable political environment, would never easily replace his long-term cooperation.
