Chapter 285: Are You Wilderness Wanderers? Monthly Pass)
When He Ao entered Chenxi City, it was already past one o'clock at night. At this time, most of the service companies had closed, so He Ao did not directly start investigating the plan. Instead, He Ao took Penny to find a hotel and drove there for two days.
room.
The process of opening a room was very smooth, just register your name, show your visa, and pay the room fee.
He Ao is not short of money.
Although with the death of Ronald's father, the camp gradually declined.
However, as a trading area that was once famous in the nearby wilderness area and a large homeless gathering place with thousands of people, the camp's income is not low.
Even if most of this income is exchanged for weapons and electronic equipment, the remaining amount is used as a small part of the reserve fund, which adds up to a large number.
Most of the money is stored in the camp's cryptocurrency account, and the remaining half is placed in the camp in the form of cash. When they migrate, the wanderers take this money with them.
When He Ao came out this time, he took away part of the cash.
Of course, he now also controls the camp’s cryptocurrency account.
Wilderness wanderers don't seem to be able to open accounts in banks in the city. At least Ronald's father has never opened an account in a big bank in the city. All the money is exchanged for supplies as much as possible. If it cannot be exchanged, it is stored in cryptocurrency.
account, or deposit in cash.
After teaching Penny how to use the hotel facilities, He Ao took a shower, turned on the TV, took a bottle of red wine from the small wine cabinet in the room, pulled out the cork, poured the wine into the glass, and walked towards
The room has huge floor-to-ceiling windows.
The two rooms chosen by He Ao are both high-rise luxury suites on the 97th floor. They are among the suites with the best views in the hotel.
Standing in front of this huge floor-to-ceiling window, the bright city was reflected in He Ao's pupils.
Although it is late at night, most high-rise buildings maintain bright and flickering lights outside the buildings.
The light and night are mixed together to form this magnificent metropolis.
The prosperity of Chenxi City is far greater than that of Kaya City. Even if a giant like Nolanka is placed in Chenxi City, it will only become one of the largest companies in Chenxi City, not the ruler of Chenxi City.
He Ao lowered his head and stared at his feet.
Looking down from such a high floor, there is only a small light spot left in the wide vehicle on the ground. Countless such light spots are connected in series to form a long river of light spots.
That is the river where wealth flows.
"Mr. Christos, this is your second time on 'Fifteen Minutes.' Do you have anything to say to the viewers of our show?"
"Hello everyone, I'm back again. This time, I'm one step closer to the goal I declared last time, one step closer to us changing this city together."
A man and a woman were heard asking questions from behind.
He Ao turned around and looked at the TV behind him.
The popular show 'Fifteen Minutes' is being replayed on TV.
The former host of this show was Roy's ex-girlfriend Monica, and Monica herself was a member of the Witch Church. She was killed by How in the sky garden at the top of the Nolde Building.
Although Monica is dead, 'Fifteen Minutes' is still broadcasting, but the host has been replaced by a younger and more beautiful host.
However, the popularity of "Fifteen Minutes" seems not to be as high as it used to be.
"Mr. Christos, in a few days, you will be sworn in as the mayor of Chenxi City, but there seem to be many circumstances that are not good for you recently. In the past week, three demonstrations against your inauguration have broken out.
, some opponents even almost got into fights with your supporters in the streets."
The host looked at Christos with a smile, "What do you think of these things? After you take office, will you restrain the behavior of your supporters?"
Hearing this question, Christos raised his eyes slightly.
He Ao, who was sitting in front of the TV, also smiled and took a sip of wine.
This question itself is a trap, and the answer will be restrictive, which means it will hurt your supporters and affect your support rate.
The answer is "no restraint", which leads to another question, 'You are already the mayor of Chenxi City, the theoretical top leader of Chenxi City. If you don't restrain your supporters, are you going to use your power to protect them?'
This will become a stain.
Christos didn't seem to expect to be asked this kind of question in this interview. He smiled and replied,
"Actually, I don't call those who oppose me opponents. To be precise, they are 'potential supporters who have not yet benefited from my decree.' Recently, many newspapers and programs have promoted my governing strategies.
Being radical will undermine the stability of Chenxi City and harm the interests of the middle class and some small business owners.
But in fact, I am a standard moderate, and my governance is basically so that most people in Chenxi City can live a better life."
"You mean..."
The host watched Christos bypass the trap and immediately interrupted, wanting to continue asking questions.
"Please let me finish," but her question was interrupted by Christos. The man in the silver suit showed a gentle and convincing smile and continued,
"Fundamentally speaking, most of the 'middle class' are also oppressed by consortiums. Although they earn high wages, they are always worried that they may lose their jobs and cannot afford high loans. In order to make themselves appear wealthy,
'Value', they often have to work far more than normal working hours.
Small business owners can only make a living in business fields that the consortium disdains. Once they create excellent products, they will face low prices or hostile takeovers by the consortium.
In fact, these two categories of people will actually benefit from my proposition of "condensing consortiums and protecting workers." They are opposed to me now, but they have not yet reacted.
When they realize that I am working for them, they will firmly support me.
So I don’t call them ‘opponents’, they are just my ‘potential supporters’.”
Christos successfully turned this interview with him into his 'personal opinion show', and took advantage of the popularity of 'Fifteen Minutes' to refute some of the views that have been criticized by some recent news programs, and towards some
Potential supporters exported their own theories.
He Ao took a sip of wine and turned off the TV.
Although Christos' abilities are indeed outstanding, he faces an alliance of consortiums whose resources far exceed his own.

The moon sets and the sun rises, a dreamless night
The next morning, He Ao and Penny left the hotel early.
If you want to survive in the city, the first thing you have to do is find a job that can support yourself.
He Ao needed to know how difficult it was for homeless people to find a job in Chenxi City. He found a nearby employment agency with good reviews on the search engine and went directly to inquire.
An employment agency is an intermediary agency that introduces jobs to unemployed or jobless people. They make money by charging referral fees or accepting subsidies from the city hall.
"Tell me your social security card number...are you a wilderness wanderer?"
The staff member responsible for receiving He and Ao was a plump elder sister in her thirties. She looked at the information in her hand, raised her head and looked at He Ao in surprise, "Sorry, we don't have jobs suitable for wilderness wanderers here.
