Chapter 2104 - 2104

Mark said this, it's true, but some people just don't believe it.

The anti-Valle fighters are still cheering excitedly, completely oblivious, which is extremely endearing.

Certainly, the stock market's reaction is intense too.

Mark's personal wealth is also shrinking, which is not surprising at all. Capital needs to be operated according to rules, otherwise, how can you harvest the green shoots?

The stock market's decline is not a big loss for Valle because the major capital sold off almost everything yesterday. What's left is capital analysis, deciding when to enter the market to pick the bottom.

Liu Zhizhong also gave a speech with a very relaxed demeanor, brief, easygoing yet powerful, still full of confidence in the future.

But he and Mark know that next, it's most important to improve, correct, and continuously refine each step of the experiment that encountered mistakes and deviations.

As for how disappointed, critical, or disparaging the outside world may be, it's irrelevant and can even be disregarded. If you care too much about what others say, you won't get your own job done!

The two and the entire team are still very excited, at least the stainless steel rocket flew, and there's great hope ahead. This half-successful launch is still worth celebrating together with a drink, adding momentum for the future.

After the reception, Mark flew back to the United States, while Liu Zhizhong got busy with other political affairs, going to meet foreign guests.

The next day, Great East Pot made waves globally by announcing that that afternoon, the Expedition 9 rocket would transport supplies to the space station.

Expedition 9 will use the most advanced technology to achieve greater carrying capacity, sending more goods to the international space station.

Indeed, after Valle's launch failure, Great East Pot welcomed its leading moment.

On the day of the launch, hundreds of thousands of aerospace people were paying attention. Many global media also focused on it.

However, filming was not allowed at the launch site, let alone live broadcast. The world could only watch Great East Pot's channel Number One's live broadcast to receive the news.

Just that day happened to be Great East Pot's New Era National Day celebration, marking the start of a nine-day long holiday. Quite a few people nationwide were paying attention to this launch, though many were stuck on the highways!

The facts proved that the Expedition 9 launch technology was mature, with greater thrust, perfectly lifted off, operated flawlessly, and perfectly delivered the goods to the international space station.

At this moment, the Dadong people were ecstatic, excited. Excitement on the highways, in tourist spots, in streets and alleys, everywhere was crazy.

Some were stuck on the highways for five hours, solving nature's call in small woods beside the road, holding phones, tears streaming down their faces, feeling the country's strength, and that no one could bully us.

After resolving nature's call and returning to the car, they immediately started cursing. Damn it, what's highway management doing? Why always block everyone on the road during holidays? Those idiots driving slowly, do they even know how to drive? How did they get their driver's license? Why don't such people get into accidents and wipe out their families?

Experts, arrogant professors, became proud again, leading distantly, trampling Valle and Mark's stainless steel sky rocket, saying they are delusional, wasting money, losing both their foundation and the future, hahaha... won so overwhelmingly, absolutely overwhelmingly...

However, online, there's another voice. Did your overwhelming victory help me repay my mortgage? Did it help me achieve free medical care? Did it help me ease turning screws? You won overwhelmingly, but how much global attention is on you? Does it have even one-tenth the buzz and flow of Valle and Mark's skyline rocket?

Then, a batch of accounts got shut down again... talking is allowed, but not unrestricted talking, speaking nonsense, huh? Just shut the hell up, anyone who talks, will get shut down!

Of course, during big events, there are always insightful people standing up, wanting to speak out. Although suppressed, the world never lacks fighters.

But what's dispiriting is that when someone who feeds you peanuts suffers, you cheer and curse that they deserve it, kicking them while they're down.

Someone is fighting for your light, yet you want to annihilate them, sigh...

In this regard, Wale Republic is far more open-minded.

Even though Liu Zhizhong became the second president, there are also opposing voices due to cooperation with Mark. The failure of this skyline rocket still faced opposition.

Towards these opposing voices, Liu Zhizhong and his political team did not resort to suppressing measures, because these are legitimate appeals, legitimate expressions, free voices, why restrict them?

In Wale Republic, as long as there's no subverting the national regime, racial discrimination, heretical religious tendencies, you have freedom of speech, and can express freely. You can curse President Chi Zhongshui and his government as idiots, scoundrels, as long as it's not extremely endless persistent derogatory insults, it's allowed.

But in some other Pot nations, you try?

On the day of Expedition 9 rocket's successful launch, Wale Republic President Chi Zhongshui also knew about this news, but wasn't surprised. He felt calm towards its existence, because he understands.

At this time, he was preparing to meet another important visiting foreign guest—Little Japan's Prime Minister Hengtian Poma and his delegation.

Hengtian Poma, really is a quirky one.

This time, it's already his second election as Little Japan's Prime Minister.

After his first election, due to pushing new projects with Great East Pot, he faced domestic opposition, and within less than three months, was directly impeached.

Then, Little Japan immediately held a new Prime Minister election, Hengtian Poma still participated as his party's leader.

During the vote counting session, he actually sat in his seat and fell asleep.

Upon waking, he was greeted with party cheers and applause, because he got elected again.

This couldn't be helped, it adhered to procedures and Little Japan's constitution, he legitimately ascended to the position again.

Drowsy-eyed, he could only ascend the stage, and take an oath of allegiance to the constitution, sigh...

After getting elected for the second time, he soon issued a diplomatic note to Wale Country, preparing to visit Wale Republic.

For Little Japan, the Valle People's hatred is still deep.

How to say?

The war initiated by Little Japan, motivated by Fass's ideology, caused disaster to many regions globally, a history that can be forgotten but never forgotten.

The Valle People suffered greatly in this war, were drafted into labor, and suffered tremendously terribly.

The old government Expeditionary Army of Great East Pot once fought near the borders of the Wale Region, but didn't manage to liberate here before Little Japan surrendered.
