The lawn outside the round white house was full of people. There were a large number of PLCs armed with live ammunition on the street outside. The surrounding streets were congested. A large number of people stood in the streets and alleys, waiting.
Tommy stood on the stage, his speech had ended, and now it was time to officially take office as president. Selena stood aside, wearing a solemn white dress, and Tommy wore a black suit, keeping a smile.
Several senior military officials were standing by. Later, they would hand over the national arsenal that symbolized the president to Tommy. The previous president, Wilson, had a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of bitterness. He was already 71 years old. Originally, this term
MZD had already decided who would succeed them as president, but what they didn't expect was that Tommy suddenly appeared and defeated them completely with an incredible election. The same was true for the other GHD.
No one could have imagined that Tommy's final vote rate was 91.3%, which has never happened before.
Three days had passed since the election, and the situation was now irreversible. Wilson walked over with the scepter representing the presidential power, and then smiled and officially gave the scepter to Tommy.
All of a sudden, flashlights flashed around, the people below cheered, and the whole street roared with people's voices. At this time, a high-ranking military official walked over carrying a heavy-looking suitcase.
"Mr. President, this is the country's arsenal, and it is now in your hands."
Tommy nodded and took the scepter from Wilson's hand, he smiled.
"Thank you Mr. Wilson."
Wilson smiled and nodded.
"Mr. President, congratulations on officially becoming the 66th President of the United States of the World."
Tommy held up the silver-white scepter with a black lower end and a half-moon star on top. The crowd's voice became louder and louder. Selina hurriedly took Tommy's arm and began to walk off the stage. Now she needed to walk slowly.
Swim quickly on the streets.
There was warm applause all around. Tommy waved the scepter in his hand and started to get into a large flying car that had been arranged. Tommy stood on the car. In the full-cover convertible car, Tommy stood
On the stage, there is a microphone in front of it.
Tommy looked at the eager and excited crowd, then choked up and wanted to say something, and the car slowly circled the street.
"Thank you for your support and trust in me. It is a great honor for me to become president today. I will be able to serve this country in the next four years. I will change this country together with my wife."
Tommy's voice choked up as he spoke. Selina nodded with a smile and wiped her tears. Tommy pressed the phone and said with a serious expression.
"I used to be like everyone else. I was born in a box house. I didn't have a father. Even now I don't know who my father is. The only person in my memory is my mother. Unfortunately, he passed away many years ago.
He died of illness because of overwork."
Tommy said as he pressed his forehead, and then wiped his tears. His eyes were red, but his expression was extremely determined.
"Our country has been in dire straits a long time ago. In the face of highly developed technology, our value as human beings has been constantly devalued. This kind of society is not what we want to see. I believe that every living person
, no matter who it is, they don’t want to see this country continue to rot.”
Tommy's voice was very strong, and he raised his fist and said.
"It's time for us to smash up some of the old stuff and build this country back up."
In an instant, the people waved their hands and became excited. Tommy looked at the camera seriously and said.
"When I was very young, I often heard drunkards making trouble, and heard the angry fights between husband and wife at home. Even the PLC was unwilling to come to the place where I lived to deal with the problem. My mother raised me single-handedly.
Big, she put in all her efforts, but in the end she still didn't see me as I am now, which I regret very much!"
Tommy said, Selina wiped his tears with a handkerchief. At this moment, Tommy was extremely uncomfortable and excited. He knew very well that this was his only chance to become a hero. If he did nothing,
, if it remains the same as before, then there is still no way for this country to change, and nothing can be done.
"After that, I experienced a lot, saw a lot, and lived in an environment of violence and painful patients every day. I knew exactly what I wanted to do, I had to climb up, I had to study hard, and I had to get rid of
Everything, completely leave from this bottom level."
Tommy gripped the phone tightly and shouted.
"But after I successfully entered the so-called upper class society, I discovered a problem. No matter how I tried to escape, I could still see the bottom, and I could still understand everything, why the bottom was like this, and why the slums were getting bigger and bigger.
many."
Tommy's words were so exciting that many people were already wiping away tears. These words had reached their hearts.
"I say these words today not to make everyone sympathize, nor to confuse everyone, but to face the problem head-on. Our country has suffered too much day and night. But no one wants to
Trying to solve the problem only allowed the problem to expand and then buried the problem. In the end, these problems turned into one slum after another.”
Tommy looked helpless and sighed.
"The reason why I negotiate with many businessmen at the bottom and let them build schools and orphanages is because the future of our country lies in the new generation. If we do nothing, this country will eventually be finished. I
What I want to say today is that I hope everyone will not rush this change to come quickly, because we are facing very big problems, which have been accumulating for a long time. What we need is to actually solve these problems.
, directly curb the problem and prevent it from continuing to corrode our country."
Sweat broke out from Tommy's forehead. Selena hurriedly wiped it for him. The car slowly came to a building. Tommy saw a lot of people standing behind the glass windows. This financial building,
It was erected here many years ago.
Tommy didn't know whether the businessmen did it intentionally or deliberately, but Tommy felt that they did it intentionally, because this building is directly opposite the white dome that represents the pinnacle of power in this country.
Businessmen could overlook the white dome in the building every day, and Tommy laughed.
"Inequality has always existed. I now hope that everyone can understand that inequality arises because of origin, everyone's pursuit, intelligence, etc. The only problem I can solve now is to let this inequality
Narrow it down to a relatively equal range, this is what I can do for everyone."
The cheers of the crowd continued, Tommy was silent for a while, the crowd began to calm down, and Tommy then laughed.
"I have thought very clearly about how to do it. I want those people who are struggling to survive every day to survive. They account for 24% of this country's population. What I need to do is to let these 24% of people survive.
Then there is another layer next to it, which accounts for more than 70% of the people in this country. I hope that everyone will not have to worry about next month’s bill every day.”
As soon as Tommy finished speaking, the crowd burst out into loud cheers, and many people clapped and applauded.
"The last thing I want to say is that we are human beings, not slaves, and we are not machines."
After Tommy finished speaking, he raised his fist and handed the scepter to Selina. She stood aside with tears in her eyes.
After the flying car circled around, it slowly returned to the lawn in front of the white dome house. Facing the camera, Tommy shouted again.
"Thank you all for listening to me. Today is a day worth remembering. Please remember every word I have ever said."
Amidst the applause of the crowd, Tommy turned around and entered the mansion with Selina on his arm. A bunch of people followed behind him. Many people in the Cabinet Department were already laughing happily. They knew very well that their support was now crushed.
With everything in mind, no one can refute their policy, everything can be implemented smoothly, and they can get everything they want.
At this time, among the crowd, only Di Ge felt something was wrong, because he felt that Tommy's words made him a little uneasy. This uneasiness came from the fact that Di Ge originally belonged to a relatively wealthy class.
It was not only Diego who felt something was wrong, but also some people from the rich class who were present. Tommy's words seemed to mean that he wanted to give something from the rich class to the poor.
After entering the hall, the chefs were ready, the music was playing, it was already past 5 pm, the grand dinner began, the people on the street began to gradually disperse, and the reporters also left one after another.
"Tomorrow will be a new beginning."
Tommy whispered something in a low voice, and Selina nodded with a blushing face. She now fully understood what her husband wanted to do, and she was also full of enthusiasm. She would stick to her husband's side and help him complete everything.
After the cocktail party lasted for a while, Tommy called over several of his former confidant assistants, who were now members of the cabinet. Each of them had been promoted by Tommy over the years when he became a member of Parliament. They were very happy.
"General Lance!"
Tommy held up the wine glass, and Lance, who was covered with medals, smiled and nodded. He was just 60 and was a senior member of the military. Tommy made a gesture of invitation, and Lance nodded. After a while, they came to a small room.
inside.
"I went to see you first, General, because there are some things I have to explain clearly to you, General."
"Your Excellency, tell me, this country should change."
Lance keenly felt some of the tone in Tommy's words. Several assistants were at the door, Selina was also outside, and the room door was closed.
"The military department's ability to resolutely carry out my orders depends on you, General Lance."
Lance sat down with a smile and lit a cigar. Tommy took out a cigarette and nodded.
"Do you really want to touch the bottom line of capital?"
Lance asked with a solemn expression, and Tommy nodded.
"This country is not going to get better if they don't spit anything out."
Of course, Lance also knows that riots have occurred in many parts of the country. If they are not dealt with, it will definitely turn into a civil war one day in the future. This is something Lance does not want to see in his lifetime.
"So what are you going to do?"
Tommy picked up the wine on the table and poured Lance a glass, and he asked.
“Who is the richest person in the country?”
