The meeting was full of excitement. Countless people looked at the young Yuan Lin and squeezed forward desperately. Unfortunately, the Yuanying stage masters at the scene were only considered as entrants, and the Huashen stage masters had to stand aside. The Dongxu stage and Guizhen stage masters were the mainstream. A few Mahayana stage masters and Sanxian masters, as well as some reincarnated Sanxian masters, also restrained their pride.
Everyone looked at the young 'future' mayor in surprise and amazement. Before this, everyone was speculating who would be qualified to be the manager of the Free City, but they did not expect Yuan Lin to make such a stunning appearance.
Yuan Lin looked at the scene below, and an indescribable pride brewed in his heart. When had he ever had the opportunity to speak to so many masters
In the past, Yuan Lin thought of those Yuanying-stage masters and felt that they needed to look up to them. However, now, he has become the mayor of Jinshan City, whom all the immortals look up to.
As the bell rang, the press conference officially began. A reporter rushed to Yuan Lin like lightning. He was a reporter in the Spirit Transformation Stage.
"Hello, Mayor Yuan Lin. I am Su Yongjian, a reporter from Anyang Daily. I think everyone is very concerned about one question: why did Shangguo choose you as the mayor of Jinshan City?"
The noise stopped and everyone listened attentively.
"Three reasons." Yuan Lin replied calmly, "The first and most important is the height of thought. I am not shy about this, nor am I modest. The famous theory of economic unification was proposed by me, and it has now been widely adopted by various countries. Second, I am not a native of Shang, but I agree with Shang's ideas, which is a demonstration in itself. Third, I also have dreams. I lost my relatives in the war, but I hope that there will be no more wars in the future world, and I hope that future children can thrive in happiness and make outstanding contributions to the future of Shang and the human race."
"Good..." The audience cheered. Yuan Lin's confidence, dream, and his previous oath won everyone's recognition.
Because of Yuan Lin’s previous oath, everyone believed what Yuan Lin said now; that’s why they cheered.
Soon, a second reporter came up and asked, "Mayor Yuanlin, did you write the oath you swore yourself, or did it come from someone else's instructions?"
"Your question is questionable, you can't say it like that!" Yuan Lin said bluntly, making the reporter with ulterior motives blush. But Yuan Lin still explained: "I didn't write these words, but they didn't come from someone else's instructions. These words are the soul of Shangguo, and every official in an important position will swear an oath of office in the future. Shangguo is not a centralized country, nor is it a closed country. Shangguo belongs to everyone, a democratic and free country. I sincerely hope that everyone can find their dream in Shangguo."
The reporter returned dejected and was met with a lot of ridicule; but everyone became even more supportive of Yuan Lin.
Soon, the basic questions were asked and gradually transitioned to the core issues.
"Mayor Yuanlin, the new Jinshan City will be built through universal financing. So what is the plan? I think many people are still confused about this new capital operation."
Yuan Lin said slowly: "Before talking about the capital issue, let's talk about a core. If you understand this core, you will understand the principle of capital operation. This core is - universal participation, universal construction, universal supervision and management. The country is not a country of one family, but belongs to all the people. Therefore, we have to split the new city, a completely free city, and give the management rights to every citizen. Everyone who buys stocks has one vote of management rights, and the entire city has a total of 800 billion votes of management rights. This process, even if it is financing, is also a decentralization. Citizens who own stocks can freely trade their stocks. The 'initial price' of stocks is one or two gold; as for how much the price will increase in the future, it all depends on market changes; and the increased price is the stockholders' own gains. And those who have one vote of management rights have the right to vote. You can participate in the election yourself, or you can vote for others. Jinshan City has a three-year construction and transition period; after three years, all positions in the entire city will be open to the public and appointed by election. Of course, for the common interests of everyone, if you want to participate in the election, you must pass the relevant tests. Including written tests, public speeches, personal achievements, etc., all of which will be publicly evaluated."
