Chapter 930 - 352: This Is What We Should Be Like!
Chapter 930 - 352: This Is What We Should Be Like!
There’s one more thing Zhang Beixing didn’t say.
And that is not to let the members of the Second Team and the Reserve Team be too anxious.
The negative news about the First Team has already spread across the nation.
Anyone online should have seen it by now.
Now we need to quickly pull the public opinion back a bit.
Don’t let the morale of your team scatter, and even more so, don’t let the nationwide populace panic.
The phone rang at this moment.
It was Zhang Delin calling.
Zhang Beixing thought for a while and decided to answer it.
The other end was not as hurried as Zhang Beixing imagined, still composed, only informing Zhang Beixing.
"Take advantage of your upcoming press conference to suppress public opinion; the higher-ups are really concerned about this matter."
"But we all believe in your ability, so don’t be too stressed."
Zhang Beixing was very grateful to Zhang Delin, definitely for speaking on his behalf, even taking responsibility for him when he wasn’t aware.
Otherwise, with such a nationwide public opinion incident, he couldn’t possibly escape unscathed; currently, he only received Zhang Delin’s call, and no other documents or notifications, which speaks volumes.
"Mm."
After a gentle acknowledgment, Zhang Beixing hung up the phone.
No need for many words now; it’s about action.
The press conference has a dedicated venue at The Ninth Bureau, the headquarters of The Ninth Bureau with a large area and a specific hall.
On the way to the hall, Zhang Beixing saw members of the Second Team waiting here to join him.
Zhang Beixing clearly saw panic in the eyes of a few girls.
They obviously lacked experience with such situations.
The speeches prepared before are estimated to be useless now; the press conference is about to begin; at this moment, there’s some panic, not knowing what to do.
Zhang Beixing didn’t have time to comfort them.
Leng Bing, on the other hand, remained calm and composed.
"It seems your previous experience of being cyberbullied abroad turned out to be an unusual precious wealth for you, huh?"
Leng Bing was initially stunned upon hearing this, but then quickly understood the meaning behind Zhang Beixing’s words.
Bitterly smiling, "Minister, you still have time to joke with me at this moment?"
"Heh, it’s no big deal. Why, do I have to put on a miserable face for everyone?"
He snorted, "It’s nothing but a bunch of clowns, won’t show face openly, just know how to play tricks behind the scenes."
"Would they dare to try directly in front of me? Watch me slap them to death!"
"It’s all small matters; why didn’t they act so arrogantly before back in Europe?"
Zhang Beixing stopped here, no need to say more, those who understand will understand.
"Alright, ready? You’re about to go on stage."
"Today’s plan remains unchanged, helping to clear your wrongs; whatever I promised will be fulfilled, regarding public opinion, I’ll just casually say a few words later."
After finishing, Zhang Beixing pushed open the door, leading to the hall outside.
Now.
The venue prepared long ago for the press conference was packed with people.
Capable of accommodating thousands, it was jammed full, originally everyone should be seated, but now, not one of the seven to eight hundred chairs was occupied.
There were simply too many people, sitting down couldn’t fit, everyone was standing, squeezing nearly three thousand people into a thousand-capacity hall!
Zhang Beixing was filled with question marks.
A capital, actually has three thousand reporters?
Isn’t that excessive?
Seems a bit too much; is journalism so profitable? All rushing to do this?
Unbeknownst to Zhang Beixing, despite many reporters here, combining photographers still made up only eight to nine hundred people.
The rest were all self-media, almost all present-day internet celebrities generated by the era.
These online influencers got this chance to attend audit through their various channels.
Zhang Beixing didn’t prohibit them, hence their opportunity to come in.
Zhang Beixing underestimated his own influence.
As Zhang Beixing stood on the temporarily built stage, stopping before the desk.
The noisy hall immediately fell silent.
A profound silence, the kind you could hear a pin drop.
Over two thousand people, over two thousand pairs of eyes, all fixed on Zhang Beixing.
Experienced in killing mercilessly, Zhang Beixing was not the type to become socially anxious from being watched.
Clearing his throat.
Zhang Beixing got straight to the point.
"I won’t say much now, the press conference begins."
Zhang Beixing took out the speech prepared by the secretary from his pocket, glanced at it, and tossed it onto the desk.
"I won’t be reading from the speech script; instead, I’ll be brief and to the point, explaining what’s happened online today and what I originally intended to announce."
This action of tossing the speech script wasn’t a deliberate show.
It’s just due to sudden circumstances, the speech script is useless now.
Having to improvise now.
Fortunately, Zhang Beixing could handle it; otherwise, today would have been awkward.
Due to his height, Zhang Beixing had to lift a hand-held microphone off the desk.
He spoke into it.
"Just about an hour ago, I received news that my Extraordinary Reserve Squad, specifically the Extraordinary Reserve First Team, was ambushed during a mission on my orders in Willpower Country, betrayed by those lured by interests and shaken in faith, resulting in two serious injuries and five minor injuries, but fortunately, no one died."
"I assure here, after my recent operations in Europe, by intercepting the D&E organization genetic agents obtained through human experiments, those injured this time can be treated, so you need not worry about their safety; they are now resting at the Great Xia embassy in Willpower Country."
"..."
Having reached this point, Zhang Beixing paused, surveying the crowd below.
Indeed, these two thousand people were noticeably stunned by Zhang Beixing’s straightforward speech.
They’ve never seen a press conference like this before, nor a leader so candid.
Not avoiding his failures, blatantly accusing without the backing of proof!
Shaken in faith, greed, betrayal!
Such heavy terms used, not minuscule by any means, but extremely severe terms!
After a slight pause, Zhang Beixing continued speaking.
"Here, I publicly pledge, with my personal honor and integrity."
"Within a week, I will go to Willpower Country; the exact date is undetermined, but I’ll frankly notify the instigators of this incident, I’m coming, better hurry to escape, but no matter where you run, I’ll catch you."
"All involved in this incident are now listed on The Ninth Bureau’s wanted list; don’t expect even one to escape!"
"Additionally, I severely warn Willpower Country, not to shelter or favor anti-human organizations, or else I, Zhang Beixing, not under The Ninth Bureau’s name, but personally, will target all Martial Artists in your country, leaving them no chance to thrive!"
Resonant and forceful!
Intimidating!
Words shocked everyone!
Zhang Beixing’s claims were explosive and intense, each statement more powerful than the last.
The three thousand present were left dumbfounded.
Upon realizing, they all shouted in excitement!!!
Zhang Beixing was directly issuing a hunting order against those involved!
Furthermore, blatantly threatening an entire nation using his personal name!
Even intimidating an entire country’s Martial Artists!!
The eyes of male reporters and self-media practitioners on site were nearly sparkling.
A true man! What a gentleman! This is what we should strive to be!!!
