After discussing for several hours, everyone felt a little tired, so for the time being, the meeting ended here, and everyone went to rest casually. However, this underground palace is not a high-end place. Although it can basically be rested after Bright's previous arrangements, it is definitely not very comfortable. There are many people who complain about this, but now it is impossible to change places. At most, they can only complain.
…
"You have also changed. Those words of freedom, light, and justice are so awe-inspiring." Graves said suddenly when passing Bai Yi.
Obviously, Graves was talking about what Bai Yi said just now.
"It's not about change, it's about adaptation and flexibility. I know what you are laughing at. In essence, no matter how high-sounding the reasons are, war is war and will bring death and pain to countless ordinary people. No matter how noble the intentions are The reason, in the final analysis, the essential driving force is the benefits... If it weren't for the huge benefits that could be obtained after winning the war, it is estimated that no one would really be willing to fight for it." Bai Yi said.
At this time, there was no one else around the two of them, and the two of them also controlled the volume so that only they could hear it.
"But this is how it is in this world, isn't it? Do you have to reveal all your essence on the surface to be safe? Most of those who show their essence will not be accepted by others, but will be ridiculed in all kinds of ways. This is Don’t other people know... No! For most people, they know their own nature and the nature of the world, but they are unwilling to admit it, but need a fig leaf." Bai Yi said.
Graves glanced at Bai Yi, and the two were slightly silent. Neither of them knew what the other was thinking.
Ahead is another hall, where some people are waiting quietly. One of them, a bear standing upright and wearing a coat, immediately ran over excitedly after seeing Graves, panting heavily.
"Captain, you are finally back. This place is so stuffy." Xiong stuck out his tongue.
"Huh, I can't bear this heat." Graves snorted coldly, and then walked forward.
Although his tone was indifferent, when he passed the bear, a circle of transparent cold air surrounded the bear. The bear was immediately as cool as if he had eaten iced watermelon in the dog days of summer. Bai Yi could see that Graves was extremely conniving towards this bear in his heart. After all, when Switzerland awakened the Noble Phantasm of the Law, more than half of his team died. This bear was one of his few former subordinates...or friends.
"Bear." Bai Yi asked.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." When the bear heard Bai Yi calling him, he nodded and apologized. Bai Yi couldn't help but smile when he saw the bear's appearance. It was still the same as on Devil's Island.
"I'm asking you if you have a name?" Bai Yi asked.
"Name, yes, yes."
"what is it call?"
"Fipo." Xiong said.
"Fei Bo, Fei Bo... fatbear, fat bear?" Bai Yi repeated it twice before subconsciously looking at Fei Bo.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The bear opposite him immediately blushed and apologized hastily.
"Hahahaha, a very good name, see you next time." Bai Yi said, also walking towards Alotiya and Woolf.
After Bai Yi left, Fei Bo immediately ran up to Graves. Fibo still remembers Bai Yi. Although they didn't get along with each other for a long time on Devil's Island, Fibo still remembers this man who was as good as his captain. The other one is, of course, the little girl who is petite but equally strong.
…
There is still enough space in the underground palace, although it cannot be said to be very spacious. After the day's meeting, this group of people immediately returned to the room they had chosen, and then discussed carefully with the people they had brought. Regarding the content of the meeting, is there anything else that needs attention? In addition, it is about the selection of candidates. Obviously, among the nine seats, the one with the most power is the president. These people are all estimating their own strength to see where they can sit.
Bright was quite well prepared, and even in the desert, he entertained everyone well, but it was completely impossible to be like a star hotel.
After resting for a night, everyone came to the hall again to continue discussing the matter of the Council of Light. After a night of thinking, almost everyone had new ideas, and then improved on the basis of yesterday. For example, the resource commitment of the lowest participating forces; what kind of treatment should new forces receive after joining; if the new powers of the board of directors are just to forcibly remove the president from his position, it will be too ineffective. Is it possible? Is this what they specialize in
In addition to these, there are other ideas. After everyone's discussion, the composition of the Light Council has gradually been improved.
After evening, all that remains is the distribution of duties and responsibilities. And this is the key point among the key points, an issue that everyone is extremely concerned about.
"Go back today and think about the list that you approve of. Tomorrow everyone will submit a copy, and then we will select people who are convincing from there. There will be no problem." Bai Yi said.
"Yeah, okay." Bright was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Most of the other people also nodded, but a few of them felt a little uncomfortable because, unknowingly, it seemed that the entire joint summit was beginning to be dominated by Bai Yilai. This process was subtle. No one noticed it at first. They just felt that Bai Yi was on point every time he spoke, and people had to listen to his opinions. Then unknowingly, everyone gradually began to obey Bai Yi's words subconsciously. You know, the nominal host here is Bright, who proposed coming to this place.
Bright's suggestion of this place actually had selfish motives, because as the owner, he would always have some advantages in the territory.
But this is not okay. If this continues, isn't the position of the president already obvious
The more ambitious people started to worry slightly.
But at this time, Bai Yi suddenly said something again. "By the way, when I talk about your recommended list, I'm not just talking about everyone here."
Bai Yi's words immediately shocked everyone who had not left yet. If he wasn't talking about them, who could he be
"As the leaders of a force, it is impossible for you to leave your force. Therefore, in this list, it is best to have people who are famous and powerful, but will not have an impact on you. Of course, if you are willing It's okay to leave your own power behind and focus on the Light Council." Bai Yi explained.
After Bai Yi said this, everyone realized that it was indeed impossible for them to hold multiple positions without even being able to change their own power. And is it really worth investing everything for such a bright council with an uncertain future? It is impossible for others to really devote all their resources to support the development of the Light Council.
After returning to their rooms, everyone began to think about the list. Obviously, this list could not be the final list, but at least there would be one more nomination.
President, CEO, directors... everyone subconsciously thought about it, and the first thing that came to mind was Bai Yi. But, do we really want Bai Yi to be the president... Everyone began to think seriously about this issue. As a result, most people fell asleep in one night.
The next day, everyone gathered again and submitted a list. Bai Yi didn't show how special he was, and also put Bright ahead of Bright on the list.
"The list is here, but then I will start counting every recommended person and position on it, and then calculate it according to the number of votes, and the person with the most votes will bear it," Bright said.
"This won't work." Bai Yi said.
"No, why?"
"This is just a preliminary list. It is too unconvincing to simply use this to confirm positions. List all the people on the list, and then see who is in each position recommended above, and record it first. This It is just a preliminary screening, just a list of candidates. If you want to actually take the nominated positions, you must give convincing reasons. Similarly, if there are absolutely irrefutable reasons, then no matter what, you will not be able to take the position. Take that position. Of course, the premise is that the nominee is willing to take on this position." Bai Yi said.
Bright looked at Bai Yi, wanting to say something but not saying anything. Bai Yi's approach was so complicated... but he couldn't find a reason to refute.
Soon, the rankings were sorted out, and as expected, everyone was on the list. The only difference was the number of votes. And the one at the top is clearly Bai Yi, with thirty-one votes. In other words, Bai Yi's name is on everyone's recommendation list, it's just the difference in position.
"Bai Yi, thirty-one votes, 14 votes for the recommendation of the president, 13 votes for the CEO, and 4 votes for the director." Bright announced the votes.
"That's a really high number of votes. Bai Yi, you are really convincing." Bright said.
"Go on, sort out the rankings first and see who are the recommended candidates for each position, and then everyone will discuss whether they are suitable." Bai Yi said.
When Bright saw Bai Yi say this, he stopped saying anything and continued to announce the rankings.
