Serious People, Who is Learning Magic at Marvel?
4. Bruce Wayne's Press Conference
Mind control is a good thing - at least, in most cases.
If the mage wants to, he can control the whole city when he comes here, and let them do what he wants them to do unconsciously like zombies. But that would be pointless, the fine control he's casting on Batman right now is just the lowest gear. If he sensed something was wrong, he would break free.
But he didn't.
This shows that this paranoid mental patient is not completely incurable, and deep down in his heart, most of them have realized how absurd what he has done. Unfortunately, he is mentally ill. In the absence of outside help, it is almost impossible to overcome this disease on your own.
Fortunately, the mage is here.
The status of Wayne Enterprises in Gotham needless to say, even though it was three in the morning, when Bruce Wayne announced that he was going to hold a press conference, it was still quickly welcomed. Gotham Daily, Port, Herald, Metropolitan. Gotham's local newspapers and those who dared to set up branches in Gotham hurriedly dispatched their reporters.
Most of them are in good spirits, only a few are sleepy. Don't get me wrong, that's just the way journalists are. Staying up late is the norm, and someone once joked that 80 percent of their blood had excess caffeine levels. When you're getting first-hand news, sleep seems irrelevant.
What's more, a lot of big news usually happens late at night—specifically, the kind of big news that can only be seen in Gotham.
The flashing lights flickered wildly, and Bruce Wayne slowly walked up to the prepared platform in front of the Wayne Building.
He didn't have the usual perfect smile on his handsome face, but he still looked handsome and charming. Considering his financial blessing, the bachelor in his thirties is more attractive to some women than everyone else in the world.
Bruce Wayne picked up the microphone in front of him, his voice hoarse and breathless, as if something terrible had just happened: "I have a few things to announce."
"Firstly, Wayne Enterprises will carry out the entire infrastructure construction tomorrow - we expect to build more than 70 orphanages and social welfare institutions. We will build public schools, as long as you are, or your children are school-age children, then You can come to the school to study. Please note, it is free.”
"I also extend an invitation to aspiring people and teachers all over the world. I will deploy the best security force to maintain the safety of teachers and schools. At the same time, your salary will also be the highest level - I mean , all-round. I will provide you with a single room and travel vehicle. If you think you are suitable, you may wish to submit your resume to Wayne Enterprises.
"
"I will demolish some houses and buildings in the old city. This matter has passed the resolution of the city government half an hour ago. Thanks to the reasonableness of Mr. Mayor, the demolition work will be carried out tomorrow. At the same time, those abandoned chemical Factories and old, unoccupied buildings will also be demolished. We expect to fully complete the process in five years.”
If it's not an open-air venue, the noise under the stage can perforate the eardrum. The reporters, mostly flushed, raised their hands to ask questions. But the expressionless Bruce Wayne didn't get as close to reporters as he usually does.
He dropped one bomb after another with a blank face, blowing the Gotham who hadn't slept yet.
On stage, Bruce Wayne paused. He said slowly, "Finally, I want everyone to understand one thing. Those of you who heard this, or saw me speak. Gotham is not without hope."
"Yes, Gotham is not hopeless."
"Whether you're a single mother, a homeless homeless person, a poor worker, a young man feeling lost about the future -- or someone who's come back from the wrong path, I want you to stick to the bottom line. I know that The road is hard. It's been the case since time immemorial, and the right road is often the hardest. You might even say—it's fucking hard."
He uttered foul language without any image, and the audience was inexplicably quiet. Gone was Bruce Wayne's usual perfect smile, and there was another angry face.
"But from now on, Gotham will start to change. I know it's hard, and I know some of you don't trust me either. But action will prove it."
Instead of adding a shocking conclusion to the speech or speech, he dropped the sentence and walked away.
-------------------------------------
"How do you feel?" He Shenyan asked with a smile while sitting in front of the huge TV in Wayne Mansion, drinking coffee brewed by Alfred himself.
The old man stood beside him, his back straight, and even his suit had somehow changed into a brand-new, wrinkle-free style. He looked at the man on the TV and touched the corner of his eyes: "...Master and Madam will be proud of him."
Alfred knew that this was the road they wanted their son to take—and the half-way they themselves took. He still remembers Gotham at that time, when everything was rundown, until Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne decided to change that.
It's a pity... a few bullets shattered all the hopes that were gathering. Gotham once again carried the name of hell and suffered for more than ten years. Bruce Wayne chose another path. He chose to incarnate fear, but the idea of a castle in the sky didn't make Gotham any better.
When he went out on patrol every night, the old man would remind him to hang up. He had seen Bruce dying more than once, and it was just a 'daily patrol' in Gotham. Not to mention those worldwide disasters. This man never seemed to know what to escape, and whenever something happened, he was always the first to rush up.
Green Lantern has his ring, and The Flash's speed is unmatched. Superman is the walking god herself, and Wonder Woman herself is a demigod. Sea King is worthy of the name, the Lord of the Seven Seas, strength and authority complement each other. Although Martian Manhunter and Cyborg are not well-known, they are still powerful beyond mortals.
But what about Batman?
What does he have?
His money and technology may be useful in dealing with mortal criminals. But it is of no use to those crazy alien gods, evil gods who came to earth from another world. The old man didn't know what kind of mentality Bruce Wayne was in to charge forward every time.
All he knew was that the days of nightmarish fears that he might die at any moment were finally coming to an end.
