Chapter 1737 New Commander
On May 13, the Golden Crab and its rebel fleet officially left the Alliance before the pursuers arrived. Before the pursuers arrived, they sank into the vast spiral Grand Cross Nebula.
When this news reached Nephi, it certainly would not attract the attention of the alliance rulers. To them, the rebels who just moved to the border were just a group of small rebels, and they were not even as harmful as the pirate kings back then. Even the preparations for civil war in many union republics and kingdoms cannot shake their step-by-step political pace and governance.
After the emergency congressional election, the 56-year-old Mr. Fino Belenkeste officially became the leader of the alliance, the head of state representing 7 trillion people, and the natural leader of this half of the galaxy.
But in fact, when he first ran for election, most people in the alliance thought of him as "Who the hell is this?"
This is not to say that the dignified Mr. Feno Belenkeist is not famous.
After all, his surname is Belenkeist. After all, he is a permanent director of the Standard Shipping Association. After all, he is a member of the board of directors of Libra Bank. After all, he is the (honorary) president of the Rainbow Rose Foundation. After all, he used to supervise the administration when he was young. As an inspector, he has been engaged in many dangerous missions, and he was also a person who won the "Alliance Star" medal at the age of thirty.
Later, he would often appear in the Sankei News as an investor, chatting and laughing with various young, old, reliable and stupid entrepreneurs, and he looked like a timely alliance.
Of course, he will not forget to appear in various entertainment and pornographic news, and has even participated in several variety shows, which is completely in line with the standard taste of the league's richest people.
All in all, Feanor Berenkeist's public image is still good.
However, before the start of this election, his life was completely insulated from politics. When seeing him appear in political news, ordinary people actually feel that his style does not match his appearance.
Even such a person can become the commander-in-chief, which probably only shows that the alliance really has placed a lot of expectations on the surname "Belenkeist", as if it were a royal family with outstanding merits.
In addition, the alliance is a typical parliamentary federal system of government, and the leader of the ruling party automatically becomes the head of state.
However, before this, Fano Berenkeist was not a member of the Star Alliance, nor was he even a member of Congress. However, in less than a year, he completed the process of joining the ruling party, the Galaxy Alliance. , was nominated as a member of Congress, was unanimously elected, became the president of the ruling party, served as the interim commander-in-chief on behalf of Marshal Este, led the party to defeat the aggressive opposition alliance in the congressional election, and became the official commander-in-chief.
If this story was placed in a political drama about the Alliance, the audience would definitely criticize it for not having common sense.
Of course, some people also asked whether Mr. Berenkester's method was a bit unorthodox? How can a political amateur say that if he is a member of the assembly, he is a member of the assembly, and if he is the president of the party, he is the president? This feeling of imperial determination is too obvious.
What's more, with such little time, it's too late to just go through the process, right?
However, this very reasonable doubt did not even stir up any trouble.
When the Golden Crab sailed into the Star Sea, the new head of state of the Alliance also began his inaugural speech in front of Nephi's Capitol Building.
"The biggest change I can bring to everyone is eternal frankness and sincerity. People of the Alliance, now is the best time to tell you the truth frankly and bravely, and tell the whole truth. We also There is no need to shy away from the reality of our country today. We are indeed facing the greatest dilemma and challenge of this century. So let me start by stating my firm belief that this great country will endure and it will rise again. And to prosper. In the face of common difficulties, you and I need this spirit..."
He has an amiable smile, a kind and gentle language, and a bit of a chic attitude, making him very charming. Compared with President Nihita of the Community who was very popular in front of the Alliance public before, he behaved less aggressively, but ordinary people still liked this feeling very much.
In short, as I said before, the commander-in-chief's public image is indeed very good, and his eloquence and persuasiveness are also top-notch. In fact, the public also likes this person who plays a lot of tricks but is refreshing and generous.
However, smarter people know that the "difficulties" and "challenges" mentioned by the commander-in-chief are not taxation, finance, or welfare security. That galactic empire.
However, the commander-in-chief, who came from the most powerful family in the league, still seems not to face this problem. So, how can this playboy-like commander lead half of the universe to resist the aggressive Dragon King?
This is where the public has the greatest doubts about the new government.
Then, in the second half of the speech, the trusted head of the alliance added another paragraph:
"As the Head of the Union, the free people have entrusted me with the full power of representing them, and I also have the responsibility to speak for all free and republican people in the universe in this beacon of freedom. I must admit that there is no need for those who are still in the community to Warriors and people in battle, I also I want to send a special message: Although I cannot meet you in person, my speech is not only for the people of the alliance in front of me, but also for you. I believe in the same as you: the community. The blue flag never falls!”
His last words were spoken in Earth's common language, and they were immediately contagious.
"Based on just this sentence, maybe the people on earth are willing to die another 10 billion people?"
"The Circassians, with a population of 200 billion, have not been able to hold on for one more week. How can another 10 billion people on Earth die?" "So, is this speech a success?"
"Of course it is a success. The ratings of this speech are 15%. It is higher than the ratings of Mrs. Parlotin's speech in Congress..."
"This name is taboo now. Don't you have any common sense?"
"Well, I mean, it's three percentage points higher than the previous Commander Tatos."
"What's so strange about this? The commander's surname is Bei! Both Huanyu and NOB belong to their family."
"No matter what his surname is, since so many people have heard his voice, the future work will be much easier."
"The sixth commander-in-chief of the Bei family... Every time a member of the Thirteenth Family takes up the post of commander-in-chief, it is either a good time or a chaotic time. What time is it now?"
"It won't be the worst, so I'll be satisfied. I'm still thinking about retiring."
"The marshal is really pitiful, no one remembers him, no one misses him."
"Marshal? Who is the marshal? Also, as a senior, I have to remind you that the thirteen families and the royal families of the alliance do not exist. They do not exist! Do you understand?"
The bureaucrats in the Azure Palace looked at the commander-in-chief who was looking at ease on the rostrum, and exchanged the above-mentioned content that was neither polite nor friendly. They have worked at the Azure Palace all their lives, and they will probably work until the day they retire. They are the group of people who have the most contact with heads of state, and of course they are also the group of people who lack the least respect.
However, although they are acting strangely, they are full of expectations for the new big boss. Big bosses who are born into wealthy families and are not short of money have a high vision. They will often provide benefits to those around them, and they will also turn a blind eye to some occasional small actions.
In comparison, the previous Commander-in-Chief Tatos was not good enough. He was born as a common scholar and has been in business and academia. He is really not easy to fool.
More importantly, judging from the new commander's intentions, he is really planning to do something about this war. Then wouldn't everyone be able to chat and laugh with "friends" from various military-industrial complexes?
At the same time, the citizens of Nephi also cheered sincerely. Because the Grand Commander has really promised everyone that he will implement the minimum wage bill, promote the ten-hour working day, etc. within one year.
As for the Capitol Square where the President gave his inauguration speech, there was a little bloodshed last year, but everyone seems to have forgotten all this.
Anyway, at least for those Nephi citizens present who started cheering, it was indeed time to try to move forward and start a new life.
However, whether it is to expand the military and prepare for war, or to provide benefits to ordinary people and stabilize public sentiment, real money and silver are needed.
So, at the board meeting of the Standard Shipping Association, when the "Princess Rainbow Rose", who officially became the executive director in place of her father, sent the report in her hand to the representatives of the big capitalists in the alliance present, everyone fell into a brief silence.
"This is the new taxation bill. It is indeed a plan that the new government will implement within one year. As representatives of the alliance's chamber of commerce, we are obliged to cooperate with the Nefi government in all work." Yamida· Berenkeist glanced at everyone with a bright and warm smile, but his tone did not mean to discuss anything.
After a while, a well-dressed gentleman slowly said: "This, this is different from what was promised!"
"Is it different? So please tell me, what exactly did we agree on?" Miss Berenkeist tilted her head and looked at each other, still smiling.
"...No, no, nothing, I just made a mistake." The well-dressed gentleman almost cried.
Princess Rainbow Rose withdrew her eyes. She, who was sitting at the bottom, showed a reassuring smile as if she was a superior: "Then, let's vote. The six major banks headed by Libra Bank and the boards of directors of the three major shipping groups have all made the right judgment. I Of course I believe you can do it too.”
Before she could finish her words, Astrid Ariel, who came to the meeting on behalf of his elders, quickly raised his hand: "I absolutely agree with everything the Nephi central government does!"
