Chapter 267
If he can't get rid of them, won't he be angry with them? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; if he doesn't seize it, he'll be unable to sleep at night from reflecting on it.
"... good."
Qiu Pang responded and activated his Optical Brain to convey Patrick's message.
For some reason, Patrick's words, after going through a few turns of his ears, were vaguely heard as 'a grand funeral'.
Atopulai Palace, Bernice listened carefully, responded with a "Received," ended the communication, and strode towards the direction where the uninvited media were kept in watch.
Such meetings are usually only open to invited media with invitations. However, almost every time, countless media outlets from various planets who have not received invitations appear outside the Atopulai Palace, attempting to enter using various methods, including but not limited to forging invitations, following other invited media, knocking out members of an invited media outlet and impersonating them, etc.
In response to such situations, not only will invited media be subject to three layers of Inspection upon entry, but media outlets that are expelled will also be surrounded and monitored.
Without exception, at every one of these large conferences, all media outlets attempting to infiltrate were barred from entering.
But this did not dampen the enthusiasm of these media outlets. Whenever there was such a conference, even if they knew they had no chance of getting in, they would still show up on time, staking out the venue every day to take random pictures, such as the halo created when the Spaceship landed at the Atopulai Palace, and scrutinizing the attendees' clothing, appearance, and facial expressions from head to toe.
This is further accompanied by headlines such as "So-and-so's facial twitching is abnormal, suspected to be a fake person," "So-and-so is suspected of having broken bones to grow taller in order to surpass his former political rival," "So-and-so and So-and-so's unknown experience in the bathroom," "Shocking, they actually exchanged saliva in public," and so on.
Therefore, the media outlets that managed to ride the wave of popularity were no less than those inside, since the invited media were not allowed to use such vague, distorted truths to achieve sensationalist headlines.
She didn't know if others had clicked on it, but she did click on the blog post about "exchanging saliva." The truth was that the two political enemies were extremely hostile to each other, and since one of them had been humiliated by the other in a meeting, they couldn't help but exchange sarcastic and dissing remarks, with spittle flying everywhere.
"Team leader."
Upon seeing Bernice arrive, the team members surrounding the media, who were eager to see a spectacle, parted to make Passageway for her.
Bernice nodded slightly, walked past her own people, stood in front of the chattering media, and clapped her hands twice.
Slap! Slap!
The sound of slapping temporarily silenced the noise, Bernice seized the opportunity to speak, "Would you all like to go in?"
"Huh? Let us in?"
"Holy crap, did I hear that right? They don't want to live their good lives anymore?"
"That's obvious, of course I want to!"
What are the conditions?
Bernice: "..."
It seems they have some idea why they were stopped outside.
After listening for a few moments, Bernice raised her hand in a gesture to silence.
The media, whose hopes had been raised by Bernice, obediently fell silent, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Bernice said sternly, "I can take you in, provided that everyone lines up and registers with me. Once inside, you must promise not to make a sound. Anyone who disobeys will not only be immediately kicked out, but the person making the sound and their media outlet will be permanently blacklisted and never allowed to set foot in the Atopulai Palace again."
"You all don't want to come back again and again, only to watch others go in while you are turned away, right?"
According to Qiu Pang, the president needed them to publicize the events at the meeting from all angles and in all directions, making as much noise as possible, but he didn't want them to cause too much trouble and create unnecessary problems.
As for next time? That's a lie, just a pie in the sky to make them follow the rules. This will only happen once, and there won't be a next time.
The opportunity to enter the premises, just like the invited media, was something they had been longing for. Now, hearing the word "later," many media outlets responded enthusiastically, spontaneously lining up to register in order to show their goodwill.
While unnoticed by the participants from various planets posed for a group photo Atopulai Palace, Bernice led a large number of media outlets to spread out around them.
In this group photo, among a group of familiar faces, the unfamiliar faces from Class 6) stood out.
The newly arrived media were surprised to receive such great benefits as soon as they were allowed in. They tried hard to control their excitement and, with flushed faces, carried their professional equipment to shoot and broadcast live.
In the face of major media outlets, these smaller media outlets have always won by using sensational headlines. Even in live broadcasts, among the regular live broadcast headlines of official media, countless smaller media outlets, although later, also quickly turned the tables and surpassed the others by using headlines such as "That's right, it's Class 6)! The Class 6) you're thinking of", "It's Class 6), some of them have passed away", "Class 6) has already moved to the next level"...
[My God, our kid has managed to get in there without us even noticing!]
[When I first saw this title, I knew it was one of those small media outlets again. Before clicking in, I thought they were using Class 6 to attract attention and capitalize on Class 6's popularity, and I was ready to start criticizing them. But it turns out it's true, I'm speechless.]
[This time, there's really no way to criticize.]
I think I know what they're going to do.
[The gap is so big, are they not familiar with each other? They clearly know each other. (scratching head)]
[Others: Don't touch me]
(Class 6: Du Mei~]
[What kind of behavior is this? What gives them the right to go? It's ridiculous!]
[Just wondering, why is Patrick's mouth twitching? Did he get a facial nerve irritated during a Botox injection?]
[President, don't look, it's a negative review]
[That's crazy, he's clearly saying, "I want to laugh just thinking about the current situation, but everyone around me doesn't want to see me laugh, ahhh, it's so hard to hold it in."]
[Keep going, you're our only hope!]
After the eerie group photo session ended, the group from Class 6, who were not part of the group, scattered in all directions, keeping their distance from the Class 6 members, for fear of being ambushed.
The team consists of Class 6 people. Amidst the different gazes cast by attendees from other planets, they deliberately act as if they are "holding their noses and accepting it" to avoid being bothered by the crickets.
(Class 6 ignored this and, taking advantage of adjusting their positions as if they didn't want to be distorted by the camera, silently counted how many other (Class 6 members had come here besides themselves.
After the guides left the crowd's sight, He Muzhi confirmed that there were 28 more people in Class 6 than before they arrived, totaling 372 people.
There are 1,292 other people who also have voting rights.
Following the first step of the internal self-inspection process initiated in response to major public opinion events, the advantage is not in Class 6).
Unless the students from Class 6) who came here can all persuade the people who came with them to vote 'yes' as they do.
But that's impossible. Not to mention others, among the seven people representing the Ninth Military District at the meeting, four of them looked down on him and didn't care about his appearance. The only reason they were polite and smiled at him was because their surname was He.
The remaining two...
He Muzhi glanced at the two people who were taking a short rest in a private room while waiting for notification to go to the meeting. After entering the room, they pretended to be attracted by the paintings on the wall and chatted so enthusiastically that no one else could get in. He sighed inwardly and silently turned on his Optical Brain.
Disliked by everyone, he can only find some comfort in the 999 Group now.
[Wow, there are so few people, how can they win?]
[It's my fault, my skills aren't good enough. I failed to steal the permissions and was even discovered and put under surveillance.]
[To get the chance to attend this conference, we resorted to any means necessary, both overt and covert, without any scruples. We never imagined that only a mere three hundred-odd people would make it there. Ultimately, we were just too incompetent.]
[I see Sophia. Sophia, didn't you say your uncle coldly rejected you? Then whose authority are you using to be here?]
[Of course it belongs to my eldest uncle. It's all his fault for being so careless; he was kidnapped on the way back. Oh, my poor eldest uncle.]
[... Since you were kidnapped, how did your uncle's access end up in your possession? The kidnappers are quite considerate; they kidnapped your uncle and specifically transferred his access to you.]
[Don't worry about it, I'll be done here. We have to get over there in three minutes. How's the dirt on them going? Don't mess it up, this is our only chance.]
Don't worry, I know it by heart. But are there really people who would be threatened by dirt on me?
In the other rooms, the group of people who were not from Class 6 entered the room, checked that there were no listening devices, and then spoke up angrily one after another.
"Although there is still no evidence to prove it, everyone knows that Qin Su has undoubtedly put us in this crisis. Class 6) is acting on Qin Su's orders. At this meeting, they will definitely support the start of the investigation into the matter of Body Modification. For our own sake, we must oppose it to the end and suppress this matter at the start stage."
"That's right, we must unite."
That makes sense.
"They only have a little over three hundred people, so we have the numerical advantage and don't need to worry too much."
"Heh, that's true, but who knows how many of those present are secretly in contact with them, or have already secretly pledged allegiance to Qin Su, staging a last-minute betrayal."
"That's pointless of you. What kind of infighting is this?"
At the same time, after the photos were taken together, the matter was exposed. Faced with questions from all sides, countless people who had lost their authority and were "represented" sighed and complained louder than those who were questioning them.
"They say even tigers don't eat their cubs, but who would have thought this cub would be so vicious as to devour me too? Who can I complain to? I'm so wronged, brother! Since you're here, perfect timing, teach him a lesson he deserves."
"Sigh, who can argue with that? Who would have thought that after living most of my life, living a perfectly good life at home, I'd have to be wary of even my own children just to go out? She kidnapped my perfectly good father like that! What a misfortune for my family, what a misfortune for my family..."
Whether it's genuine misfortune or an act, don't worry about it. Just keep shouting about how unfortunate you are.
(Class 6 at the Federation Planetary Joint Conference caused shock and chaos, the rest period ended and the guides led the participants in their respective rooms to their respective positions.
Along the way, the pressure was too great due to the small number of people in Class 6. Every time they scanned someone, they secretly recited the other person's dirty secrets in their minds.
"?"
Noticing the strange looks from the group of mischievous kids in Class 6), everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
