"Friends, Lily sincerely invites you all to welcome you to Jixi Town. Let us build a beautiful home together!"
Lily didn't know that her random cheer almost caused several teams to disband.
Lily is a low-profile, unknown female country radio anchor.
That was before.
When Clyde accidentally lit the first beacon, when everyone was most helpless, Lily's broadcast was like the only spark in the dark night, and all the sad and helpless hearts could not help but rely on it.
After Egger set the highest goal of "rebuilding homeland and continuing civilization" for the gospel team, with Lily's repeated propaganda, he successfully inspired countless survivors who were deeply in despair.
As soon as Ryan saw Lily that day, he knelt down excitedly and kissed the back of her hand. Everyone just treated her like a melon, thinking that Ryan was a fanatical fan of Lily.
This is not a "just" thing at all, but countless "just" things.
Lily's plain words are more provocative and attractive at the moment than the fake group leader Long Wenwen's shout of "Let's go, take you home."
The only thing that prevents fans from migrating to Jixi Town now is physical isolation. Their hearts have already flown to Jixi Town along with the singing and dancing on the radio.

Field team in a makeshift outpost.
After dinner, everyone gathered together all the sleeping gear that could be found in the house, tied it up with ropes, and pulled it up to the top of the barn.
This barn has three floors in total. The space on the third floor is very low, so people can only squat and walk on this floor, but it is excellent for sleeping.
There is a large ventilated window without glass on the second floor of the barn, which can be used for observation and sentry.
Egger yawned and said to Thomas: "Anyway, you have slept enough during the day, so you will be on night watch tonight.
If you can't stand it anymore, come upstairs and ask me to change the shift. Don't be lazy and sleep, and don't eat food secretly.
All supplies have quantities, and I can find them out just by licking them.
Prove your worth to everyone, Brother Tom."
Thomas was stunned for a moment and then nodded. He still had some small expectations for the night watch.
Finally it was nightfall.
Thomas, who was standing on the second floor, saw that everyone was asleep and the time was ripe. He tiptoed down the ladder to the lower level of the barn.
Taking advantage of the cover of the night, Thomas, who was wearing a "Ghillie suit", quickly got into the farmhouse. He quickly walked to the fireplace and couldn't wait to put his fingers into the stew pot. Sure enough, he touched a shallow layer of fire at the bottom of the pot.
of leftovers.
Thomas took out the warmed steamed bun from his arms, broke off a small piece, put it into the pot, scraped it, and put it into his mouth.
Then, Thomas walked to the dining table, picked up a dinner plate, stuck out his long, dark red tongue, and licked the middle of the plate hard.
Delicious fat.
This is the snack Thomas has been waiting for.
After a while, Thomas, who had washed all the pots and tableware twice, walked out of the farmhouse with a satisfied expression. When he came to the yard, he casually opened his trousers to let out water.
Thomas, who often spied on people, never expected that there was a guy using a low-light night vision device to observe him through the big window on the second floor of the barn under the cover of darkness.
Seeing Thomas striding towards the barn, the shadow put away its night vision goggles, climbed to the top of the barn and lay down again.
This guy is a bit interesting.

Early the next morning, people in Jixi Town began to get busy.
After dinner last night, due to the lighting, the carnival lasted until late at night. The scene was so lively that when they went to bed that night, many people automatically joined in.
Early the next morning, "Foreman" Vance stood on the street in front of the hotel. He reached out and touched the back of his head, looked around, and cursed loudly.
It turned out that except for the old members who had all gotten up and started activities, only Nicholas was the only new member.
This morning, Nicholas pushed away the girl next to him and rolled out of bed with difficulty. He knew that if he wanted to have a place in this new team, he must first perform well in front of several bosses.
Nicholas' immediate boss is Vance.
Although no one has introduced the composition of the gospel team to Nicholas, Nicholas knows very well that Vance must be the first to pick and choose the best, so he must have extremely high authority.
Nicholas was right. The apparent power composition of the gospel team was slightly different from the actual power distribution.
As long as two of these three people, Father Locke, Egger, and Vance, agree or disagree with something, the matter can be passed or rejected.
Iger's unlucky thing last time was that he took action without waiting for Vance to come home. In this situation where he acted first and then acted and created a storm of public opinion, Vance had no choice but to give up on him.
If Iger can get Vance's consent during the meeting, they can fully express the opinions of other people, such as Avella and Lily, but these two men may not pay attention to them.
At the second meeting, Iger proposed a shocking three-step move, which was opposed by both Father Locke and Vance, and Iger suffered another setback.
Egger's speech was vetoed by Lily because he had no right to propose. In fact, it was because Father Locke and Vance showed their opposition.
The right to propose itself is a relatively abstract thing. Without the right to propose, you cannot speak and speak?
The rejection of Iger's speech was only related to the content of his speech, and had nothing to do with whether he was a member of the board of directors.
Many people can see the twists and turns here. The blow Iger received was only nominal. In fact, his authority was not restricted.
As for Joanna making another proposal for Iger, this was completely Joanna's personal behavior, so Father Locke simply rejected her proposal.
Having said that, it doesn't mean that Iger feels better now.
Last night, Iger lay on the mat in the barn. He tossed and turned all night long and couldn't sleep. The events of the past two days were played over and over in his mind, making him feel a stab of pain in his heart.
After a whole night of reviewing and thinking, I don't know why, Iger felt that Andy had been planning from the beginning, and he used his own action plan.
The first person who came into contact with Walton was Andy. It is entirely possible that he deliberately made the negotiations worse and worse, and finally caused the peaceful solution to collapse, leaving only the option of seizing by force.
Andy also knew that seizing by force would definitely not be authorized by the board of directors, but Iger's character was stubborn and impulsive, and he would not be able to help but act without permission.
Egg acted without authorization, playing into Andy's hands. Even the firearms and tear gas used by Egg during the attack were provided by Andy.
Yes, Iger has no evidence. Conspiracy theories only look at abilities and results, not evidence, because Andy has this ability and he is the biggest beneficiary.
Iger doesn't want to fall into conspiracy theories. He knows that conspiracy theories can only make people fall into malicious speculation and be unable to extricate themselves.
Iger also knew that if he was replaced, someone would naturally step up to replace him. It just happened that Andy was the best substitute, but it was difficult for him to stop imagining.
Iger thought of that day around the fire, Andy walked up to him, and he whispered to Iger: "I'm sorry, brother. This was not my plan."
