Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 834 - 833: The News
Jiang Cheng saw the journalists quieting down, and only then did he reveal a satisfied smile: "Isn't this much better? That chaotic mess earlier was just unprofessional. You journalists may take turns asking questions, and I will try my best to answer everyone's queries."
Of course, if the questions involve confidential content, I will not entertain them; you should know the boundaries yourselves.
After maintaining order at the scene, Jiang Cheng allowed the journalists to start asking questions one by one.
However, Jiang Cheng still warned the reporters slightly, reminding them that some questions should not be asked lightly.
If their questions touch on technical secrets, Jiang Cheng would certainly not answer them.
By setting a rule for everyone first, it becomes easier for the interviews to proceed; this is Jiang Cheng's current thought.
Upon hearing Jiang Cheng's words, all the journalists nodded in agreement.
The journalists standing next to Jiang Cheng, of course, understood which questions should not be asked.
These people are all seasoned professionals and naturally wouldn't ask inappropriate questions in the coming session.
Everyone knows not to offend such a big shot like Jiang Cheng, so no journalist would really ask questions that could make things difficult for him.
After setting the tone for this interview, Jiang Cheng was ready to start answering questions.
"President Jiang, hello, first of all, thank you for agreeing to this interview."
The first to ask a question was a foreign journalist, who appeared to be from the Western world.
This foreign journalist was able to grab the first questioning opportunity because of the media group standing behind him.
Being sent by the world's largest media corporation naturally gives him a higher status than others.
Other smaller media outlets naturally wouldn't compete with him for the first question; this is the advantage of status. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
In the media world, status is still quite important, decided by the media behind each person.
"First, congratulations on Central Lake creating a spaceship. It seems that you've achieved another remarkable feat this time."
"You truly deserve to be called the greatest scientist in history, being able to realize even something as fantastical as a spaceship."
Right off the bat, this journalist flattered Jiang Cheng a bit, showing that he is quite experienced, knowing that a bit of flattery might make the rest of the interview go more smoothly.
But Jiang Cheng wasn't swayed by such low-level flattery; he had heard such compliments often, and now they barely affected him.
Jiang Cheng's facial expression showed no change, as if he hadn't heard the compliment at all.
Seeing that his flattery didn't work, the foreign journalist proceeded to ask his real question.
"I would like to ask, on behalf of everyone, about the specific situation of the spaceship behind you."
"Could President Jiang please personally introduce the detailed situation of this spaceship to everyone?"
The question asked was indeed something everyone was concerned about now, truly representing all in questioning Jiang Cheng.
Ever since learning about the spaceship, everyone has been curious about the specifics of the Pioneer.
Everyone wants to know how the spaceship performs, how fast it is, and what its carrying capacity is.
These performance parameter questions about the Pioneer are what's on everyone's mind.
Everyone wants to know how powerful this spaceship is, and whether it can take humanity to faraway places.
"As for the situation of this spaceship, I will answer it in detail in the next period."
After listening to the first journalist's question, Jiang Cheng first adjusted his speaking pace for this session, then began introducing the Pioneer.
This spaceship was previously designed and manufactured by me, and I named it Pioneer.
I hope this ship can blaze trails for humanity and secure more living space for us all, which is why I chose this name.
Jiang Cheng immediately elevated this spaceship's status, presenting it in grand terms.
Even elevating Pioneer to the level of expanding survival space could be seen as shameless self-promotion.
However, this approach by Jiang Cheng was warmly welcomed. All the spectators in front of their TVs, upon hearing Jiang Cheng's words, nodded in approval.
When Jiang Cheng spoke of the survival space issue, the general public really bought into it.
Media often likes to mention resource crises, food crises, population crises, and such.
This makes all the spectators feel like Earth's space is truly running out.
It's precisely the everyday citizens' concern for survival space that draws their attention to spaceship-related matters.
Everyone fears the day when Earth's resources are exhausted, fearing the loss of peace due to various crises.
So, upon hearing that Jiang Cheng has created a spaceship, they all gathered in front of their TVs, focusing on this news.
It can be said that spaceships are humanity's last hope, even if Earth's living conditions deteriorate in the future.
Owning a spaceship allows humanity to immigrate to other planets; if Earth becomes uninhabitable, they can still go elsewhere.
Immigrating to other planets was something completely unachievable before, but now it is possible.
The advent of the spaceship has made alien immigration a reality, as distant planets can now be reached via spaceship.
Perhaps, after reaching a certain stage, humans could even have several colony planets.
By then, there would be nothing to worry about as even the destruction of Earth wouldn't affect everyone.
Now the Pioneer has become the future of all humanity, adding a layer of security to human survival.
That's why so many are concerned about this event, wanting to learn about the Pioneer spaceship.
Especially after Jiang Cheng mentioned the survival space issue, everyone started focusing on the TV, listening to what Jiang Cheng was about to say next.
Everyone has now become watchers, waiting for Jiang Cheng to introduce this spaceship to them.
At the beginning, Jiang Cheng put on an act, presenting himself as a savior, fully embodying a commitment to humanity's future.
Yet, this image of his indeed has a market; everyone believed what Jiang Cheng just said.
This has always been his image, and everyone is used to following Jiang Cheng.
It can be said that Jiang Cheng has reached a point where his call is answered by all; he can take human civilization in whichever direction he wants.
Or one might say the future of human civilization is now in Jiang Cheng's hands, and it depends on where he wants to lead humanity.
