Chapter 155 Solve the Riot
Based on the experience gained on Earth, Xu Yi knew very well that if he just appeared in front of everyone, it would cause a commotion immediately.
If it is more serious, it is also possible to cause a stampede and cause casualties.
So he was not in a hurry to show up directly, but contacted several staff members of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the center of the city square through the magic communication box, and ordered his arrangements.
After a while, the huge magical phantom projection devices distributed around the square on the city square, and the hundreds of slightly smaller magic phantom projection devices that have been arranged in the streets of the old city of Bangta City over the years, and Bang Suddenly, the same picture appeared on more magical phantom projection devices outside the old city of Tacheng.
That was Xu Yi's whole body.
At the same time, Xu Yi's figure appeared on the display screens of hundreds of magical phantom projection devices, which immediately attracted the attention of the rioting crowd.
People stared at the magical phantom projection devices in astonishment, and then they didn't know who shouted a few times, and the crowd immediately burst into bursts of violent cheers and shouts.
The unexpected sound even made the houses around the city square hum, and Xu Yi, who was flying in mid-air, couldn't help being startled.
He didn't expect that he would cause such a big reaction just by showing his face through the magic phantom projection device.
Fortunately, he didn't rashly appear in front of everyone, otherwise I'm afraid there may be very serious consequences.
This was the first time in Xu Yi's life that so many people cheered in unison, which made him feel elated for a moment.
But he immediately regained his composure, paused, and raised his hands.
Accompanied by his movements, Xu Yi also made the same movements on the display screens of hundreds of magical phantom projection devices in the city square of Bangta City, in the old city, and outside the old city.
Yes, this is a live broadcast.
Under Xu Yi's suggestion, the R&D department of the magic phantom projection device co-operated by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the New Moon Chamber of Commerce has completed a technological breakthrough in this area at the end of last year, and with the vigorous promotion of the New Moon Chamber of Commerce, it has truly achieved live broadcasting. become reality.
Although this live broadcast generally requires the subject being broadcast live to be in the recording environment, but because Xu Yi himself is a magister, he only needs to use himself to form a magic phantom circle with the same frequency. You can create a live broadcast environment by yourself.
Just like those live broadcasts on the earth, Xu Yi's every move now can be simultaneously projected on the display screens of the hundreds of magical phantom projection devices.
"Hello, everyone, I'm Xu Yi, and I'm sending my greetings to you through the magic live broadcast of the New Moon Chamber of Commerce." Xu Yi greeted with a smile.
The sound immediately radiated through various magic phantom projection devices. It resounded clearly in the ears of almost everyone in Bangta City.
After being stunned for a moment, the crowd reacted immediately, and then burst into cheers and shouts that were even more violent than before.
Xu Yi waited quietly for about two minutes before the crowd gradually quieted down.
"Everyone, I'm very glad that everyone is so supportive. They are willing to come to my personal press conference." Xu Yi continued. "But I think everyone has seen that because there are too many people, this small old town of Bangta City can no longer accommodate it. I even saw that many people are reluctant to stand up straight."
People looked at each other and couldn't help laughing when they saw their distorted forms due to the extreme crowding.
They didn't pay attention when they were desperately squeezing towards the city square just now, but now after Xu Yi reminded them, everyone realized how crazy they were just now.
"I'm very glad that everyone likes and pays attention to me, but due to the reality, it is obviously impossible for everyone to attend my personal press conference." Xu Yi continued. "So. I am sorry to tell everyone that this personal press conference can only be attended by invited reporters from various newspapers. Others, please follow the command of the city defense army and withdraw from the old city."
Hearing this passage, everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then they made a fuss. Almost everyone showed expressions of extreme dissatisfaction.
"Why!"
"That's right! Why can't the reporters of those newspapers participate, but we can't? We also want to see Chairman Xu with our own eyes. Hear what Chairman Xu has to say!"
"That's right, the city square is not owned by those reporters, so why don't we just go in and sit around?"
"I will never quit!"
"me too!"
...
Seeing the furious look of the crowd in the distance, Earl Belmore, who was still observing the situation here in the City Lord's Mansion, couldn't help but wipe off his cold sweat.
This is President Xu. Can't you be a little more tactful?
Didn't he know that being so straightforward would only arouse people's dissatisfaction?
Just as Earl Belmore was about to order additional troops to maintain stability, Xu Yi spoke again.
"In order to make up for everyone's losses, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has set up live broadcast points in several squares outside the old city. After you leave the old city, you can not only continue to watch my personal news release through the large magic phantom projection device there It will be broadcast live. You can also receive some gifts from the staff of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. These gifts are divided into several grades, the lowest is a Xinfei brand magic fan, and the highest is a new magic car. Because the gifts are limited, So whoever comes first has a better chance of winning the prize.”
Everyone stared dumbfounded at Xu Yi who was smiling like a fox on the display screen, and was at a loss for a while.
This is the first time they have heard of such a so-called reward activity, and the lowest-grade prize is a Xinfei brand magic fan, and the highest-grade prize is actually a magic car!
Is Xinfei Chamber of Commerce so generous?
The mentality of hesitation only lasted less than half a minute in most people's minds, and then it turned into a desire for prizes.
It is about to enter the hot season of midsummer. If you can get a magic fan at this time, it will undoubtedly make this summer a lot easier.
Even if you don't need it, you can at least get one or two gold coins if you sell this Xinfei brand magic fan you got for free.
If you are lucky enough to get a better gift, even the highest-end magic car...
The crowd became turbulent again in an instant, but this time the turbulent direction was not towards the city square, but towards the outside of the old city.
Earl Belmore stared blankly at Xu Yi who flew back again, and it took him a while to say a word.
"President Xu, did you plan this long ago?"
"Of course not." Xu Yi shook his head. "If it had been planned long ago, this situation would not have happened today."
"Then the gift giving event you just mentioned..."
"This is the trade fair that our chamber of commerce has already booked in advance for the upcoming summer sales season. Now I just need to ask the staff of the chamber of commerce to replace the products that were originally used for exhibitions with gifts. It's nothing difficult, don't worry."
"I believe in the working ability of the staff of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but..." Earl Belmore licked his lips, not knowing what expression to make to reflect his inner thoughts. "It's just that, President Xu, you managed to resolve this crisis so easily, and you can also help your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to make an advertisement by the way, which really makes me admire."
Xu Yi laughed, waved his hands and said, "It's just some small things, it's not a big deal."
"It may be a trivial matter to you, President Xu, but in my opinion, you have learned a lot. I thought that to deal with these people who are almost irrational, they can only be violently suppressed, but I didn't expect to be able to deal with these people who are almost irrational. President, you paid a small benefit like this, and you coaxed them all... Oh, it’s really an eye-opener for me to persuade them all away.”
Xu Yi didn't bother to care about the word "coaxing" in Earl Belmore's mouth, because to be honest, this method is not very different from coaxing. That's all.
As for Earl Belmore's praise, he felt a little ashamed.
After all, he has only learned part of the experience from similar mass incidents on Earth.
And Earl Belmore didn't think of this way of handling it, probably because for these nobles on the Sainz continent, civilians are not worthy of being treated seriously at all, and naturally they only need to resort to violent suppression.
Although the crowded crowd in the old city retreated quickly because of Xu Yi's small promise of a gift, but after all, so many people crowded in, it took a lot of time to leave all of them.
It wasn't until eleven o'clock in the morning, an hour and a half after the scheduled press conference, that the crowd in the old city retreated and returned to normal.
However, this normal state does not include city squares.
In this huge square with a full area of more than 10,000 square meters, it is still full of people. According to a casual calculation, there should be close to 10,000 people.
"It seems that not everyone is honestly willing to retreat." Earl Belmore sighed, pointing to the crowd on the city lights. "President Xu, do you need to drive those irrelevant people away?"
"That's not necessary, as long as the press conference can be held normally." Xu Yi shook his head and glanced at Earl Belmore.
Earl Belmore understood and made an invitation gesture to Xu Yi. The two went downstairs together, walked out of the Santo's Mansion, and walked towards the city square about 500 meters away from the gate of the Santo's Mansion.
As soon as the two walked out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, they immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
The sights of more than ten thousand people in and around the city square were all focused on Xu Yi, which could be described as truly eye-catching.
At this time, a tall figure strode out from the city square and came to Xu Yi with a big smile.
Xu Yi opened his arms and hugged him heavily. (~^~)
