The Republic of China: A Letter of Appointment Creates the Most Powerful Warlord

"Marshal, do you have anything else to say about the parade the day before yesterday?"

Reporters continued to squeeze forward, sticking to the hot topics, hoping to get more explosive remarks.

Working in this line of work, they are well aware of the public's preferences, especially this kind of external action, which has attracted the attention of the grassroots people.

Therefore, as long as they get the opportunity, they will try their best to come up with more eye-catching hot spots.

"Sorry, sorry, everyone. The two Marshals still have a lot of things to deal with. Please be patient and wait for a moment. We can discuss this again after tonight's activities are over!"

At the critical moment, Lu Shan stepped forward to stop the reporters and refused to let them ask more questions.

Although these guys have the ability to promote and market, they are also very talkative.

If we let them keep asking questions, it won't be over until dawn.

As Zhang Ye and others entered, the area outside the hotel gradually became lively.

The reporters seemed to be waiting to grab a bouquet of flowers. Whenever a car came, they would surround it, check the identity of the visitor, and ask a few questions.

Even the guests who went to the foreign banquet were not spared. He asked questions to everyone he met, chattering busily and never wanting to stop.

It was exactly 7:30, half an hour before the banquet started.

At this moment, a low engine roar came from the empty and quiet streets, and then a long row of luxury cars slowly drove into people's sight like a dragon.

The reporters who were concentrating on organizing the manuscripts in their hands looked up when they heard the sound.

When they saw the long convoy, their eyes instantly lit up like flames, flashing with excitement, and then they rushed forward like a tide.

In the middle of the street, the convoy gradually slowed down and finally stopped steadily.

Kang Hyun-seung got out of the car first. He was wearing a black robe with dark patterns. He was tall, elegant, and had a shiny head. He was particularly eye-catching and instantly became the focus of everyone's attention.

Before everyone could get close, a group of guards quickly surrounded them and firmly guarded Jiang Xiansheng, Xu Zhenlin and a group of high-ranking military officers from the Min Prefecture in the middle to prevent them from being attacked by hostile forces.

"It's okay, don't panic!"

Jiang Xiansheng waved his hand gently, signaling the guards not to surround them too much.

Since arriving in Shanghai, he has been busy with various affairs and has not yet had the opportunity to accept an in-depth interview specifically for himself.

Today is such a good day, with such great media exposure, it would be a waste if we don’t make good use of this excellent opportunity to shape and consolidate our good image.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiansheng secretly made up his mind to show his most brilliant side in this "news war".

"Hello sir, are you also here for the charity dinner? Which party are you attending tonight?"

The reporter who rushed to the front didn't know Kang Hyun-seung at all, and the first question he asked made him extremely embarrassed.

He didn't expect that his popularity was so low that even reporters from these major newspapers didn't know him.

"Mr. Jiang, you've traveled all the way from Fujian to Shanghai. Did you come here specifically for this charity dinner?"

Fortunately, another reporter rushed over and recognized his identity.

This eased Kang Hyun-seung's awkward expression a little, and he immediately cleared his throat, faced the camera in front of him, and chuckled softly.

"Thank you all for your attention, friends in the media. I am Jiang Xiansheng, Commander of the Fujian National Army. I came to Shanghai to attend a charity dinner and to meet some friends and catch up."

"Mr. Jiang, there are rumors that you have a deal with foreigners. Is this true?"

"Haha, you said it yourself, it's just a rumor. We live in a society ruled by law now, and we still need evidence when speaking and doing things."

Jiang Xiansheng maintained a gentle smile, and the meaning expressed between the lines was very vague. He neither admitted nor denied it, but asked others to produce evidence.

Where can I find evidence for this thing?

"Mr. Jiang, as a guest from afar, what do you think of the two charity dinners tonight? Or which one do you prefer?"

“I’m quite optimistic about both.”

Regarding this question, Jiang Xiansheng had prepared himself mentally before coming here, so it was not difficult for him to answer it.

"The charity dinner held in the concession is intended to provide some basic assistance to the grassroots people and impoverished families of the defeated country. From the perspective of a great power and morality, this is also a good thing. It can establish an international image for our Great Xia and spread the concept of peace, friendship, and mutual assistance."

"As for the charity dinner organized by Marshal Zhang, it is more down-to-earth. It provides financial support for group activities for aspiring, passionate, and patriotic young people in China, helping them create a more convenient and comprehensive learning environment."

"This is a good thing that will benefit the present and future generations. The future of Daxia lies in the young people. We should, must, provide these children with a better learning environment!"

"Mr. Jiang, we agree with everything you said, but the public would like to know your personal attitude!"

The reporter listened to him talking for a long time but didn't provide any useful information, so he immediately "approached" him again, wanting to hear what his personal attitude was.

You said good things about the foreigners, and you also applauded Zhang Ye's side, so it seems that you have become all the good guys.

Relying on aid from foreigners and still wanting to gain support from the people is really the ultimate display of hypocrisy!

"We firmly support Mr. Sun's philosophy of governance and rule, and accelerate the completion of the ultimate goal of 'A Great Xia'!"

Or you could say this guy is hypocritical. When people ask him questions, he talks about everything. But when it comes to attitude towards foreign countries, he talks about the civil war. He doesn't fall into the trap at all!

Damn old fox!

The reporters at the scene gritted their teeth and cursed in their hearts, and simply gave an "x" to this unknown guy!

No need to look too closely, judging from his behavior, he is 100% a traitor and a lackey of the foreigners!

"Hey, Mr. Du is here!"

"Mr. Du, which banquet are you attending tonight?"

"Mr. Du, Mr. Du, are you here representing Sanxin Company this time?"

At the hotel entrance, Du Yuesheng's motorcade arrived and instantly attracted away the reporters surrounding Jiang Xiansheng.

In Shanghu, the three new companies are household names, especially the three bosses in Shanghutan, who are well-known and among the most influential figures.

There is a saying that goes, in Shanghai, you may not know the mayor, but you must know Sanxin Company!

"Humph, so ignorant, just a little punk!"

As Jiang Xiansheng looked at the crowd rushing towards Du Yuesheng, a hint of jealousy appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It's really ridiculous that the commander of the Fujian National Army doesn't even have the face of a small gangster!

"Jiang Xiansheng, I'll go in first."

On the side, Xu Zhenlin didn't want to continue to embarrass himself with him, so he turned and ran towards the Peace Hotel.

He now hates Kang Hyun-seung so much. This guy perfectly embodies the words "arrogant", "conceited" and "hypocritical".

After being with him for a long time, Xu Zhenlin was afraid that he would be struck by lightning!
