As a mage, I just want to pursue the truth

No matter if it is Lee Hsien Loong or anyone else, they all use blue star thinking to think about Zheng Li's style of doing things.

It's a pity that the opponent they met was Zheng Li, who didn't play cards according to common sense at all.

"We now consider the last item, concerning"

Wang Ruijie's unhappiness in the audience has reached the limit.

The most uncomfortable thing in the world is that you know that you are about to take over, but after waiting for more than ten years, you are told that you have been replaced.

This is what Wang Ruijie really feels now.

From the outside world, the Lion City seems to be Lee's monopoly, but in fact, between Da Li and Xiao Li, there is another Prime Minister of the Lion City, Goh Chok Tong.

It's just that compared with Da Li and Xiao Li, Goh Chok Tong's sense of presence is relatively weak. When he was there, he purely paved the way for Xiao Li to build bridges.

Goh Chok Tong is also quite interesting. His father died when he was young, and he grew up in a HDB flat with his mother and four brothers and sisters.

HDB is also affordable housing in the Lion City.

Later, I completely relied on the bursary from the Lion City government to complete my studies.

A large part of the reason why Lao Li chose Goh Chok Tong as his successor back then was because Goh Chok Tong was a technocrat with limited ambitions.

At the same time, he was born in poverty, and the power of the clan behind him is limited, so he basically can't make any waves.

Lao Li retired at the time, but not all of them. He later became a cabinet minister in Lion City.

The best trick of Lao Li was to persuade all the old people to leave while passing on the position to Goh Chok Tong.

In Lao Li's management team, the youngest person was only in his early 50s, and he immediately persuaded him to quit.

As for whether it is a real persuasion or a fake persuasion to quit, it is open to discussion. Anyway, what is written in "The Difficult Mission: The Biography of Goh Chok Tong" is persuasion.

So that Goh Chok Tong went into battle lightly, Lao Li served as a cabinet minister, and Lao Li's potential power persuaded all threatening people to leave, allowing Xiao Li to succeed in 2004.

And Wang Ruijie played exactly this role. He became Lee Hsien Loong's assistant in 18 years, that is, the first assistant secretary-general and deputy prime minister of the Lion City, and it has been 13 years today.

He has always been regarded as the next successor of Lion City.

Of course, he is also a transitional role to pave the way for Li Hongyi to build a bridge.

Wang Ruijie's background is almost the same as that of Goh Chok Tong. He also grew up in a HDB flat. His family raised chickens and pigs as a farmer, and he went to Cambridge to study abroad with a scholarship provided by the Lion City.

After returning from studying abroad, he served as Lao Li's personal secretary.

Whether it is growth experience or work experience, Wang Ruijie is the same role as Goh Chok Tong, which is a transitional role, which makes the public's perception of Li Jiacheng not so strong.

But the transitional role is also a role, it's better than suddenly airborne and given the position to him now.

How can there be a 50-year-old prince in the world?

According to reason, he has been the prince for 13 years, and Li Xianlong is already 80 years old, so he will be able to take over soon.

In fact, he is just over ten years younger than Li Xianlong, and he has been in office for about five years.

At least it's better than never.

Wang Ruijie took a trick ten years ago to retreat and advance.

Nor is it a fuel efficient lamp.

Zheng Li's parachute dashes all hopes.

You can't count on your lifespan to outlast a mage.

Still don't know which planet the mage came from.

"I now announce that Merlin will be the secretary-general of the PAP."

There was warm applause and cheers, especially when Zheng Li appeared out of thin air in the conference hall of the Lion City Parliament Building.

Zheng Li used the humanoid image in his cognition, and the Mage Alliance discovered other civilizations in the universe.

When intelligent life forms that were similar in appearance to the Blue Stars but also different from the Blue Stars appeared, the congressmen present only applauded out of politeness.

No one wants to touch this bad luck without knowing the style of the mage.

"Hello everyone, I am very happy to be the head of the People's Action Party in Lion City. In the future, I will bring new vigor and vitality to the People's Action Party.

I am a mage, and what mages admire most is the concept of elite governance. At the same time, I also have my own set of cognition and implementation methods on how to select real elites.

In the future, I will thoroughly implement the concept of elite governance of the predecessors. "

Although the People's Action Party has the word "people", it implements an out-and-out philosophy of elite governance.

Why?Because the Lion City was able to develop rapidly from a tiny place back then, relying on a service-oriented government.

The trade flow to and from the Straits of Malacca, Lion City has served these ships well, and it has ushered in rapid development.

A good service-oriented government has high requirements for bureaucrats.

Without elites governing the country and improving the status of civil servants, there is simply no way to do a good job in serving trade and attracting investment.

The industrial park in Gusu, Huaguo is a lesson learned from the Lion City, including the new districts that have sprung up in various places. The treatment of civil servants is obviously higher than that in the old city.

It's just that Huaguo's gameplay is a little different.

The Huaguo government pays high salaries to civil servants in the new district because the new district can earn a higher income from land sales.The land in the old city is almost fully developed, and the income from selling land is less.

If you want to develop the core land of the old city and need to renovate the sheds, it is better to start a new one in the name of the new district.

If all the industries are relocated there, the population will naturally flow to the new area.

At the same time, only large pieces of land in the new district can afford the price.

There are only so many places in the Lion City, and I can't even play like this.

The land area of ​​Lion City is about the same as that of Shenhai. Don't you see that Shenhai basically does not rely on land finance.

Because the land has been developed, there is no open space to rely on.

"My specific plan will tell you in the follow-up Congress speech."

Zheng Li naturally knew what Li Xianlong was thinking, just relying on the control effect of spells, no one in the room could resist him.

Lee Hsien Loong thought about retiring, but not completely, to become the cabinet minister his father used to be, and then use him to continue to control most of the power in Lion City regardless of specific matters.

What do you think.

This transaction is irreversible when you make it public.

Just because Zheng Li is law-abiding doesn't mean he doesn't have temper and ability.

Lee Hsien Loong still has a fluke mentality.

Zheng Li deliberately kept Li Xianlong awake, and watched helplessly as his party members and authority were wiped out.

Zheng Li is still one step away from mastering the power of the Lion City, and that is the handover of the leadership position.

Now only the handover within the party has been completed, and the next step is the handover of the leaders.

The media all over the world are extremely excited about the upheaval in the Lion City.

It is a historic event that a mage from an alien civilization becomes the head of the Blue Star country.

Just the impact on geopolitics, the impact on the future, and the trend of the world economy are enough for the academic community to study for many years and produce a large number of related academic papers.

Hua Guo is the last thing to want to see this scene.

Originally, the main body of the mage's control in Blue Star was in Huaguo, and the moon was the first to enter the water.

The technological dimensionality reduction advantages of Kechuangbio have brought too many benefits to Huaguo.

First of all, Kechuangbiology alone has provided tens of thousands of high-paying jobs, and there are even more high-paying jobs created by the upstream and downstream enterprises of Kechuangbiology.

At the same time, Huaguo is the biggest beneficiary of this wave of technological dividends around the ecology of brain-computer connection VR.

There are countless terminal companies, supply chain companies, and software ecological companies that have emerged.

The most important thing is the economic confidence brought by it. Huaguo was not short of money before.

Judging from social financing data and various financial data, Huaguo does not lack money but confidence. Most people have lost the confidence to start a business.

Funds are idling in the financial field, and if they cannot flow into the real economy, they will not generate substantial benefits.

The consequences of the idling of funds in the financial sector are the increase in entity financing costs, the accumulation of credit risks, and the triggering of asset bubbles.

And around the brain-computer connection VR industry, funds have been exported, and hot money is pouring into the VR field.

Huaguo's real estate bubble has been delayed for many years.

Hopes for a soft landing have even been seen.

Now the moon is the first to be close to the water, and the water is going to the Lion City.

The only thing that can comfort me is that Zheng Li went to Lion City as Mei Lin, at least Zheng Li himself and Kechuang Bio are still in China.

The bonus has not been fully gone, and you can still get some bonuses.

The domestic and foreign media reported it like crazy.

For a time, domestic and foreign media gathered in Lion City.

"Dear audience, I am right now in front of the Parliament Building in the center of Lion City, and I am about to pass a resolution on Mr. Lee Hsien Loong's transfer of the headship to Archmage Merlin here.

As the Action Party is still strong, the workers' party has only [-] directly elected opposition seats. Outside observers believe that the opposition party cannot prevent the passage of this bill.

Moreover, some members of the opposition party expressed in private that they would be happy to see Merlin become the head of the Lion City, and believed that it would be conducive to bringing some good changes to the Lion City.

We're about to have the results in an hour.

At the same time, if the motion is passed, Merlin will make his first public speech after becoming the head of the Lion City in front of the Capitol.

At present, we can see that domestic and foreign journalists including BBC, CNN, NBC, etc. are all gathered here.

Everyone is eagerly waiting for the final result, whether there are final variables. "

Whether it is Zheng Li or Li Xianlong, they both have a lot of social resources in their hands and have a certain degree of control over the Lion City.

So there is no reason why a deal that both sides want to reach should fail.

It's just that after the agreement was reached, the future envisioned by the two parties deviated greatly.

Li Wanqing asked for leave, and sat in front of the TV with his wife at his home, watching the latest news reports.

In fact, it is not only him who asked for leave, but most people in the Lion City have asked for leave today.

The real development made all the people in the Lion City feel very magical.

In other words, not only people in Lion City feel magic, but people from other countries also feel magic.

Netizens in England complained one after another: "Why did the archmage of our country go to the Lion City to become the leader?
Ten Downing Street needs Merlin! "

Netizens of American are concerned: "Will magic be popularized in the Lion City in the future, and is it still too late to immigrate to the Lion City?"

When Zheng Li became the party leader, the channel for immigrating to the Lion City was directly closed, and all applications will not be reopened until after this incident.

It's just that when it reopens, the price tag of immigrants will change.

Li Wanqing has some guesses about Zheng Li's identity. He thinks that Zheng Li and Mei Lin are related to some extent.

As for Zheng Li being Merlin, he also guessed, but there is no evidence to confirm.

This time Li Wanqing wanted to see what kind of image Mei Lin would have when he came out to give a speech.

There are a total of three TV stations in Lion City, New Media, StarHub Vision and Singtel. The first one is free, and the latter two are paid.

However, the population of Lion City is not as large as that of Xiangjiang, and three TV stations are barely enough.

"Do you think this substitution will be successful?" the beautiful woman who had been upgraded from Li Wanqing's girlfriend to wife whispered.

Li Wanqing, as the research and development director of Kechuang Biotech in the Lion City, can be considered a successful person, and he is only a layer away from the upper echelons of the Lion City.

It's just that many people can't pierce this layer of paper to become the upper class in this life.

What is the definition of upper level?That is, you can pass on most of the social resources to the next generation.

Apart from money that can be passed on to the next generation, Li Wanqing's social resources are most valuable in his position and knowledge, which cannot be passed on to the next generation.

Li Wanqing said helplessly, "What are you thinking about?

How could it not pass.

The word Merlin represents everything.

Who dares to disagree?
Just wait and see, even the opposition party will not vote against it.

And for them, the arrival of Mei Lin completely disintegrated the Li family's control in Lion City.

Instead, they may have more leeway in the future.

The benefits that Merlin can bring to Lion City are beyond the reach of the Li family. "

The wife asked, "For example?"

Li Wanqing knew that his wife was useless except for her good looks, especially she couldn't be described as insensitive to such things.

Very dull.

"For example, if Merlin becomes the head of the Lion City, first of all Merlin can build a magic school in the Lion City.

He can use the magic he has mastered to trade with other countries to obtain more benefits.

Other countries will look up to Lion City because of Merlin's existence.

There are many, many more.

It's just that I don't know exactly what he wants to do, and what he will do.

The mage became the head of the Lion City, certainly not just thinking about playing around.

Absolutely has its own purpose. "

"If Merlin opens a magic academy, do you think I have a chance to go?"

Li Wanqing tactfully said: "It may be a bit difficult.

After all, from the perspective of how to obtain magic coins, Merlin's requirements for mages are mainly reflected in IQ.

It is not the so-called IQ measured by traditional test questions.

That kind of IQ is just a very simple test of cognitive ability.

That kind just tests your reasoning, logic, abstract thinking and other abilities.

Merlin's requirement for IQ is the ability to solve problems, and it is the ability to solve world-class problems.

You may be a little short of this requirement.

Of course, I can't satisfy Merlin's request.

But I think you should be able to do it if Merlin lowers his requirements a bit. "

Li Wanqing thought to himself, maybe the standard should be lowered below that of ordinary people.

His wife was a little upset at first, but then she saw the voice of the host on the TV suddenly became louder: "The meeting is over! The meeting is over in less than 10 minutes!"
