Chapter 3464 Labor Taxation(2/2)
While Mayor Durkom gave in, Meng Shaoyuan was suffering from a headache.
The reporter Krista was sitting opposite him at this time.
During this time, he has been avoiding this reporter.
But he completely underestimated the determination of a reporter.
Krista still blocked him in the office.
"Colonel, you seem to have been avoiding me?" Krista asked straight to the point as soon as she came up.
"No way, no way." Meng Shaoyuan said with a hypocritical smile: "It's just that I'm too busy during this period and I really can't take the time."
"Then, I hope you can take the time to accept my visit today."
If you don't accept it, will you let me go?
Krista didn't care whether people wanted it or not: "Colonel, you successfully solved the vicious case in Manila Port and avoided the fate of more innocent people. Congratulations."
"It's all thanks to everyone." Meng Shaoyuan's answer was as perfunctory as possible.
Krista then asked: "I would also like to congratulate you on becoming Manila's top military and security commander. Do you have any suggestions for the future construction of Manila?"
"Me? No." Meng Shaoyuan said casually: "In short, I will fully cooperate with the Manila City Government and the Philippine Government to restore Manila to its heyday as soon as possible."
He has little experience dealing with reporters.
He didn't know that with his casual answer, he fell right into Krista's trap.
Krista then asked: "You just said you would fully cooperate with Manila and the Philippine government, but I noticed that the entire reconstruction of Manila is completely in the hands of American companies, and Manilans have no say.
And this is not just a problem in Manila, but also involves the future reconstruction plan of the entire Philippines. Do you think that Filipinos have no say in the reconstruction of their country, and no Philippine company is involved in it? This is normal.
?"
You little girl, why don't you dig a hole here and wait for me, young master?
I've always been the only one, young master, to dig holes for others to jump into, but now I almost fell into your trap!
"I think I can answer this question." Meng Shaoyuan looked serious: "The U.S. government needs to assist the Philippine government to restore order in this country as soon as possible. Therefore, they mobilized a large number of American companies and traveled thousands of miles across the ocean.
to here.
Right to speak? Miss reporter, I made a mistake. All reconstruction projects must be approved by the Manila City Government and the Philippine government. Otherwise, construction will not start at all. Why do you think the Philippines has no right to speak?
The American companies I see are all law-abiding, and all their documents are complete. You can verify this. If you say that you have no right to speak, then I don’t know what is true.
The right to speak."
When Master Meng said this, he felt blushing.
Yes, all reconstruction plans have been approved by the Manila City Government and the Philippine Government.
The question is, do they dare not approve it?
They are nothing more than a bunch of puppets.
“As for your statement that no Filipino company is involved in the reconstruction?”
Meng Shaoyuan's tone was somewhat sarcastic: "Miss reporter, don't you think this question is ridiculous? Do you think the Philippines still has its own company now?
Of course, there is also a different option, which is to temporarily stop the reconstruction of Manila, and then wait until the war in the Philippines is over, and then let Filipinos raise funds, start their own companies, and then join the reconstruction work, but you
Do you think this is realistic?”
Krista didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"The United States will lead the reconstruction of the Philippines." Meng Shaoyuan said seriously: "This is not for self-interest, but for the future of the Philippines. Believe me, Miss Reporter, only we can help the Philippines rebuild!"
…
This exclusive interview by Krista passed the news review smoothly.
In the United States, Charles Meng once again attracted the attention of politicians and plutocrats.
Especially regarding the reconstruction of the Philippines, this made the plutocrats rejoice and firmly believed that placing Charles in Manila was a completely correct decision!
And those politicians.
They also know the importance of the Philippines to the United States after the war.
Once I start to show off on the Philippines issue, then this Colonel Charles is obviously the best collaborator!
Well, there are some unfavorable rumors about Colonel Charles.
For example, some people say that he was making money in Manila and his life was degenerate.
But this is just a personal matter, so what does it matter?
He has shed blood for the United States, and now it is completely normal for him to enjoy some.
There was another whistleblower in Washington. This person was originally a member of the military command. He spent money to be sent as a fat messenger and was stationed in Washington.
He suspected that this man named Charles Meng was probably a former military leader who had been confirmed dead.
Later, the informer mysteriously disappeared.
A few days later, his body was discovered.
According to on-site analysis, this person was drunk in a bar. When he came out, he was robbed. He resisted fiercely, but unfortunately, he was killed.
The case is hereby concluded.
You said, okay, why do you have to report?
Chapter completed!
