Darkness is Coming

   Shangjing, the office building of the 19th Bureau, the underground conference room, the atmosphere is solemn and serious.

Before and after the merger of the 19th Bureau and the Control Center, an underground conference room was added to the office building. Only the director-level access authority can take the elevator to the conference room 200 meters underground. Various protective measures are complete inside and outside the conference room. Even ground-penetrating missiles may not be able to break through the alloy protective layer outside the conference room after penetrating hundreds of meters of concrete.

There are similar conference rooms and command centers in the basement of the US Federal Pentagon. However, unlike the legendary "underground Pentagon", the main means of protection for the underground conference rooms of the 19th Bureau is to ensure confidentiality rather than security. The first thing to ensure is that the outside cannot be monitored, and the inside cannot be leaked, and there is no need to think too much about the possibility of a missile attack.

   After all, as long as the zero-one base has not been shut down, in theory, there is no possibility of missiles attacking the office building of the 19th Bureau, and all missiles pointed here will be intercepted by the zero-one base.

After the Shanghai war, most of the high-level executives above the deputy director level in the 19th Bureau knew about the existence of Zero One Base. Although any information related to Zero One Base was top secret before, after the magic tide came to Shanghai, Zero One The base no longer blocks news, and after witnessing the omnic corps of Megatron, most people can guess that Huaxia already has high-tech creations comparable to strong artificial intelligence.

Huaxia officials have neither admitted nor denied the relevant suspicions of the outside world. The power with a hint of mystery is always more terrifying. Moreover, there are frequent magical waves around the world. For a while, he couldn't and didn't dare to reach out to the territory of Huaxia, so Huaxia's international status only rose quietly in a tacit understanding that everyone had.

  Since it has become a top power that is truly recognized by the international community, it is natural to show the demeanor of a power.

On this basis, the leaders of the countries living in Zhongnanhai made a decision after many meetings: on the premise that the national border is not violated and the personal and property safety of the citizens can be guaranteed, they may consider, out of the spirit of humanitarianism, to deal with neighboring countries. China and the hard-hit third world countries extended a helping hand to lay a solid foundation for building a community with a shared future for mankind.

  So, on the second day after the meeting, a group of big figures of people's livelihood and national fortune gathered together.

On the rostrum, Qi Xinwu, who has become the current director of the 19th Bureau after the official appointment document was issued, sits on the right of the center (according to Huaxia's tradition of arranging meeting seats, this position is the seat of the second leader), wearing a black tunic suit. The Yang Xiaoqian is located on the No. 1 leadership position on his right side.

Beside the two, Yu Qian, the president of the Awakened Council, and Qi Lie, the well-known God of War, were sitting in the leadership positions No. 3 and No. 4, respectively, and next to them were the current president of the Yuanjiao Association, Zhou Tianming, and Director Wei of the Security Bureau. Seats on both sides of the podium.

In the auditorium below the rostrum, the first row from left to right sits in order from left to right are the members of the cabinet headed by Luo Yingnan, the elders of Yuanjiao Association headed by Pei Qingxian and Hu Wenchao, and the head of the Super Energy Academy headed by Wu Kun. and instructors, and finally the top leaders of the units related to the content of the meeting, including but not limited to the managers of various military enterprises and energy enterprises.

   In the second row, there were members of the four ace teams of Dawn, Judgment, Ashes, and Falcon, as well as many powerful senior awakeners, including Su Yue, who had few achievements but made outstanding contributions or had special abilities.

As for those sitting in the third row, they are either rich and powerful businessmen, such as Wang Ganming, chairman of Lifan Group and the only son of Weiwei Secretary of Jiangbei Province, or new up-and-comers who control the industry, such as He Yu and He Yu from Zhanyuan Company. Wang Li.

   Even a member of the meeting who was sitting in the most inconspicuous position, after walking out of this conference room and returning to his own domain, is a big man who can make a city shock three times with a stomping. Although most people in the conference room are outside the system, although there are not many participants in the military and political system, only a few gray-haired military advisers, this does not affect the detached status of the conference content.

   It is foreseeable that the results of the meeting in the conference room today will be announced to the world by the official spokesperson of Huaxia, which will become the embodiment of the will of the country and the nation.

   After a few simple opening remarks, Qi Xinwu began to introduce the current situation.

"So far, my country is the safest region in the world, but under the current situation of global economic integration, the domestic economy is still severely affected. If the magic tide continues, it will not only be overseas trade, but also industries related to all aspects of national life. Even if we can achieve self-sufficiency, it will lead to setbacks in economic development. Today, when the land economy is about to reach its peak, the setbacks in development and the slowdown in growth rate are likely to mean a complete collapse. You may not know that last year alone, the total amount of bonds issued by local governments reached 4 trillion."

"Although we have the confidence to ensure the safety of the people's personal and property, but after the magic tide comes to the world, most people will inevitably have the idea of ​​exchanging hard currencies such as cash and precious metals in a short period of time. It is difficult for us to maintain the credibility of the government and never trust it. Find a proper solution in the conflict between the people and the fact that a lot of money printing will lead to inflation.”

"In addition, the resettlement work of the people in Shanghai has caused serious pressure on the government in various places. Judging from the investigation and analysis report made by the relevant departments, the domestic people, especially the people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, did not win a big victory because of the Shanghai war. And to gain a sense of security, in general, the people feel a heavy pressure, and we need a way to divert our attention, so that everyone can stop thinking about it, so that everyone can be sure that we have enough strength to ensure the safety of every citizen."

   "On this basis, today we are going to discuss a topic: how should we help other disaster-stricken countries, and which countries should we help?"

"On the big screen behind me, you can see a flat world map, with different colors representing the different degrees of damage in the area, marked as white, blue, yellow, orange, Red, grey, black, where black means the area is completely occupied, like Mexico."

   "Due to the distortion of the flat map, you can click on the tablet equipped with the conference seats to view it."

   "This meeting is free to speak and discuss, but please speak concisely and do not affect the order of the meeting."

   "The result we discussed here today may not be the final decision, but if it is approved by the general secretary, then our decision will determine the lives of tens of millions of people, so please consider carefully."
