Virtual End - Chapter 87
June 5th, Thursday.
Chen She got on the floating car he had just renovated and was about to go to the Liming City Council to participate in the regular meeting, while Zhang Sirui was a friendly guest driver and bodyguard.
Zhang Sirui originally wanted Chen She to bring Li Yunhan with him. After all, there would be a powerful helper in case the fight really happened at that time, but Chen She refused.
The Dawn City Council is in the inner city of Dawn City, and the defense force is very strong. Don’t talk about Li Yunhan if something really happened, it wouldn’t be enough to look at all the people of their resistance army.
So in this case, you don’t need to fight if something small happens, and you can’t fight if something big happens.
In this case, it is better to act low-key and bring a driver.
Chen She has already done his homework in advance. The Liming City Council is a large building. The regular meetings of the councillors are held in the largest building in the center, and all floating vehicles cannot enter the core area.
Of course, you cannot carry weapons when entering the core area.
Chen She’s floating car is equipped with a weapon system, but it’s not a big deal, because the other members of the council’s floating car must also have guns and other weapons. Anyway, these floating cars can’t enter the inner area and can only be on the outside. Waiting in the parking lot. Therefore, it is not particularly important whether there is a weapon system, and no one dares to be rough in such a place.
Within two minutes of driving, Zhang Sirui exclaimed, “Mr. Chen, this floating car is driving very well.”
“It’s so motivated, I really can’t help but want to go crazy.”
Chen She hurriedly said: “Calm down, don’t attract unnecessary attention. After you get to the wilderness, you can do whatever you want, no one will stop you.”
Zhang Sirui nodded, “Okay, but the handling and speed of this car are too perfect, coupled with a powerful weapon system. It’s just like a dream.”
“If it can be mass-produced and equipped with one for every two or three soldiers of the Resistance, it will be great.”
Chen She smiled slightly, “Don’t worry, that day shouldn’t be too far away.”
Zhang Sirui’s profession is a sharpshooter, genetic and mechanical approach. So naturally, he has a high talent for driving vehicles. He is a natural car god, and it is easier to reach the realm of human and vehicle integration than ordinary people.
Zhang Sirui feels like a racer has touched a professional car with top performance. The excitement is beyond words.
He could imagine that he stepped down on the accelerator, and the floating car immediately rose to the sky like a rocket, leaping through the skyscrapers quickly. Then in a dexterous turn, he avoided the chasing missiles, and quickly counterattacked, knocking down the enemy’s floating car.
Of course, this is just an illusion that exists in Zhang Sirui’s mind. At this time, they are leaving the area around the satellite city and entering the dawn city.
There is a clear speed limit for floating vehicles inside.
In the inner city, the speed limit on the floater will be stricter. If you dare to drag the car in the city, the DCPD police will immediately stop it on the spot.
Although in the outer fringe area of Dawn City, DCPD doesn’t care much, but they are very efficient in the inner city.
Finally, the headquarters of the Dawn City Council appeared ahead.
This is a magnificent building complex. Because the Dawn City Council represents the highest ruling power in Dawn City, the senior executives of various large consortia basically have important positions in the Dawn City Council. Therefore, the building of Dawn City Council has naturally become the most magnificent building in the entire city.
Following the guidance, Zhang Sirui controlled the floating car to land outside the parliament.
This can be regarded as the guidance and reception area. All drivers and entourage must stay here with the floating car. Only the MPs themselves can enter the internal building of the Parliament without carrying any weapons under the leadership of the staff. .
Of course, in Chen She’s opinion, this kind of safety measure is useless. Because there are extraordinary powers in this world, if a member is a powerhouse with a level 6 energy fluctuation or higher, even if he does not have any weapons on his body, he can kill other members in no time.
Although there is also a protective system inside the parliament headquarters, in front of high-level powerhouses, this defense force is still not enough.
However, in general, most of the top executives of large consortia do not have such high-level powerhouses, and even if they do, they will not do such reckless things. Because this is tantamount to declaring war on all the big plutocrats in the entire old soil, as long as they are not crazy, they should not be able to do such a thing.
This kind of security measures is mainly to prevent some external forces from infiltrating. For example, a large consortium wants to buy murderers or the Knights of Time wants to do a big deal. This kind of security measures can keep the danger out as much as possible.
Chen She got out of the floating car and found that other councillors were also stopping.
Members of different levels have different parking areas. The number of second-level members is the largest, and the parking area is also the largest.
And the few chief councilors can even drive the floating car directly to the roof of the building.
I saw all kinds of luxurious floating cars, one after another. One by one, congressmen dressed in Chinese clothes and striving to maintain their elegant temperament stepped down from the floating car. Once I met other councillors, I immediately stepped forward to say hello, smiling all over his face, a scene of joy and happiness.
The technology in this world is relatively advanced, so you only need to look at the other party, and you can immediately inquire about the other party’s information and know which company the other party is the owner of.
In this way, there is no need to exchange business cards anymore, only a few words of greetings and compliments on each other’s career, even if the friendship is initially established.
At that time, maybe at a suitable opportunity, this favor can be used.
Chen She glanced at the floating car in the parking lot, and felt that his floating car was really just right. It doesn’t look too shabby, and because of its small size, it won’t be particularly conspicuous.
Of course, the shape of Chen Shefu’s empty car is unique, after all, it is the result of his own magical modification, but for others, it is not very obvious.
Because there are too many brands and models of floating vehicles in the world. It is impossible for these rich people to stare at the floating car all day to study its model and brand, only to make a rough judgment based on the appearance. Even if I saw Chen She’s floating car, my first reaction would feel that it was an unusual model.
Not long after Chen She got off the car, he heard a surprise voice saying: “Hey, isn’t this Boss Chen?”
Chen She turned around and found that Wu Yisu had just gotten off the floating car.
At this time, Wu Yisu seemed to have changed a lot from before. He was wearing a formal suit and looked red and full of energy. The floating car should also be newly bought, and he looked quite magnificent.
Wu Yisu’s development trajectory is completely different from Chen She. After his own bar became popular, he successfully obtained a lot of financing, and quickly opened several branches in the inner city of Liming City, and his personal assets quickly expanded.
Previously, Wu Yisu had approached Chen She and asked him if he wanted to become a second-level member, and then he might have an answer in the parliament, but Chen She refused.
The main reason was that Chen She had no similar thoughts at that time, and just wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible, but he didn’t expect to be able to keep it.
Wu Yisu smiled and said, “Boss Chen, you are not kind! I discussed with you about entering the Dawn City Council together, but you refused with one bit, saying that you hadn’t even considered it, so what’s the situation now? Are you going to surprise me?”
Chen She was silent for a moment, “This matter is mainly because the plan cannot keep up with the changes.”
Wu Yisu smiled, “Well, it’s a good thing that you can come to the Dawn City Council, so that we can also take care of each other. Let’s go, let’s enter the venue as soon as possible.”
The two walked towards the meeting site, and met some other congressmen on the way.
Wu Yisu went up to greet everyone very enthusiastically, and other congressmen also exchanged greetings with him very politely.
However, it is clear that these congressmen are still more interested in Chen She.
Those who enter through this channel are basically second-level members, and everyone has the same status. But there are also differences between each other, the amount of assets, the level of status, whether the network is extensive, or what kind of industry they are in, these will affect the evaluation of each other.
Wu Yisu only runs a bar, and it is indeed the one that is not highly valued in this social circle.
But Chen She is different. Both the previous “Embers Will Extinguish” and the later “Another Possibility” have attracted widespread attention.
The first Super Dream proves the strong R&D strength of Lishan Technology in the Super Dream industry, which is completely comparable to Long Night Entertainment Group. The second Super Dream means that Lishan Technology has been appreciated and recognized by some high-level figures.
Lishan Technology is like a rising star in Dawn City. Of course, these lawmakers are eager to have a good relationship with Chen She.
It’s just that Chen She is really tired.
I’m an anti-thief.
You’d better stay away from me, otherwise I will be implicated in that time, but the whole family will be full of crimes.
But he had no choice but to keep smiling and to be simple and polite with these people.
After entering the inner building of the Dawn City Council, everyone came to the meeting place for regular meetings. Take the seat in order according to the seat you have been arranged.
This conference hall is extremely wide and atmospheric, and the interior decoration is also very gorgeous. The whole is a fan-shaped structure. The innermost part contains the seats of several chief councilors, and the outer part contains the seats of first-level and second-level councillors.
Obviously, the more inside the seat means the higher the status.
Chen She originally wanted to find a corner casually, sit with Wu Yisu, and quickly walk through the scene, and when the meeting was over, it turned out that these seats were all fixed. His seat is in the first row of second-level members, and Wu Yisu’s seat is in the back row.
Chen She couldn’t help but feel a little pain, because this position is a bit too far forward for him.
The chief congressman and the first-level congressmen sitting in front of him add up to less than 100 people.
But Chen She had no choice but to walk to his seat and sit down.
Originally, Chen She thought that he would never meet other acquaintances in the parliament, but not long after sitting down, he heard a surprise voice.
“Master? Why are you here?”
Chen She turned his head and took a look, and found that Su Zhi was looking at himself with surprise from the front, his eyes full of admiration.
Su Zhiyong happened to be sitting next to him.
“No way, life will always be full of unnecessary entertainment.” Chen She sighed slightly.
Su Zhiyong deeply agreed, “Yes, Master, I want to say too. In fact, I don’t want to come to this meeting at all, but I have to come.”
“Every regular meeting will have a lot of motions, one by one, and I will be annoying to death. The key is that some second-level members will also put forward some motions with very little emotional intelligence, but the regulations of the Dawn City Council require all motions to be compulsory. After voting. So every regular meeting has to be held for several hours.”
Obviously, Su Zhiyong was also very painful in his idleness, so he almost wrote “I don’t want to come” on his face.
Since he was completely disinterested in the agenda of the entire meeting, Su Zhiyong had no choice but to chat with Chen She, thinking that he could get a little closer to the master.
Maybe when the master is happy, he will pass on his own tricks, so that he has a deeper understanding of the surrealist school.
Sure enough, the council meeting proceeded as Su Zhiyong said. Members put forward various motions, and then discussed and voted on them.
Of course, the more important the senior legislators put forward, the longer the discussion time will be. The motions put forward by some chief legislators may trigger disputes among several chief legislators. After discussing for an hour or two without results, this topic will be put on hold for the time being, and the discussion will continue until the next meeting.
This is because most of the senior parliamentarians represent the interests of their respective consortia. The interests of these large consortia are in conflict with each other, and the passage of a certain bill is often the result of the decisive force of multiple parties.
As for the motions of ordinary first-level members and even second-level members, it may be passed after a brief report and voting of two or three minutes.
Although in terms of rules, every member of parliament can put forward his own bill for discussion in the parliament, and the bill will be implemented after the parliament’s standard procedures, but most of the discussions are still conducted among the chief parliamentarians. Ordinary members, especially the second-level members who have just joined, basically do not propose motions.
Because everyone is not stupid. Those who can enter this circle are at least the rich and rich class. They are very aware of their role in the entire parliamentary system. As a small trash fish, he puts forward a worthless motion and takes up everyone’s precious time. It is tantamount to offending all the senior figures in Dawn City at the same time. Will there be good fruit in the future?
Everyone came to the Dawn City Council to make a better fortune, not to die.
So although in theory, every member of the council can propose a bill, and the parliamentary procedure is relatively cumbersome, but the time for each regular parliamentary meeting is basically reasonable, and it can be over in a few hours.
Unless there are some major controversial issues, a special meeting will be held at that time. These parliamentarians may have to make preparations and discuss them for several days in the parliament as soon as they are discussed.
As far as Chen She is concerned, he has no plans to propose a motion. After all, his goal is to keep a low profile, speaking and making public appearances in front of all MPs, which is not in line with his purpose of staying together.
The chief congressman is a key figure in the major consortiums, including Liu Zhilin of the Mellen Bank Group, which previously drew Chen She into the parliament.
Chen She simply listened to a few motions, and soon, like Su Zhiyong, completely lost interest.
Although the issues discussed by these large consortiums sound high-sounding on the surface and are indeed the core issues that are conducive to the development of Dawn City, if you think about it carefully, you will find that they are actually changing tricks to fight for the benefits of their own consortium.
For example, Liu Zhilin hopes that Liming City should further relax restrictions on small loans. It is claimed that this move will help stimulate the economic development of Dawn City and allow more ordinary people to obtain a good capital turnover, but in fact it is nothing more than to release more loans and obtain more benefits.
People who do financial credit always like to describe their behavior as if they are doing charity, but in fact they are not focusing on that expensive interest.
The motions put forward by other chief congressmen are basically directly or indirectly related to their own industries.
However, this phenomenon does not make others feel strange. On the contrary, everyone feels that it is a very reasonable phenomenon. After all, becoming a member of Parliament is to give your consortium a better opportunity for development.
Since my own consortium is doing business in related fields very naturally, it means that I have a better understanding of related fields. Since I know more about it, isn’t it a logical thing to propose a proposal?
As for some furnishings that are of more concern, these motions are not involved at all.
For example, after the Fujitang Group’s base was taken down~www.mtlnovel.com~ was there any clue to the enemy? Do these congressmen know about the Naraku plan being carried out by the Fujido Group? After the Fujitang Group’s base was taken down, Liming City’s power would inevitably undergo a redistribution. Which companies will eat some industries and markets?
None of these issues were discussed or even raised at all.
After thinking about it, it is normal. After all, this regular meeting has many second-level members present. These core issues may be that only the chief councilors will secretly discuss with each other in a confidential occasion and give some kind of countermeasures.
Becoming a second-level member is just a stepping stone to enter this circle. However, if you want to truly influence the development of Liming City, you must at least be a first-level councilor. If you want to truly master some of the secrets of Liming City and gain greater real power, you must become one of the several chief councillors.
Of course, after becoming the chief councillor of Dawn City, you can continue to climb, for example, to the Northern Federal District Council, then to the Old Soil Council and finally to the Silver Star Federal High Council. The rights gained with each step will be exponentially improved.
