They had probably bought most of the country's media because they kept reporting on her good deeds .
One could say the two most famous women in Hwa Xia were Xinghe and Tong Liang . When the rumors of presidential election started flying, some said Tong Liang was planning to join the running and that gained quite a lot of support from the public . In today's day and age, an election was nothing more than a popularity contest; the more famous candidate would most likely win . No one really cared about the candidate's background or qualifications . As long as one had made a name for oneself, either through scandal or bright results in a field remotely related to politics, one would have a valid voter base .
Therefore, even without the announcement, the support for Tong Liang was already sky high . It was like the whole country was hoping she would become the President .
This phenomenon only confirmed Madam President and Elder Shen's suspicion regarding the Tong family!
AdvertisementActually, running for president was not a mistake inherently, but it was the way they went about it that earned their ire . They should not have betrayed Hwa Xia and colluded with outside forces . People like them were not qualified to run!
However, they chose to be patient, and the reason for that was still the same; Hwa Xia needed a breathing space . Xinghe impressed upon them the importance of waiting for the right time to strike, and for various reasons, they all believed her implicitly . Even the Vice President decided to respect her decision . This was because she would only come to a decision after figuring out all the angles, so her decision was always worth following .
Some could not help but worry .
"If we allow them to run rampant, what if they really got elected?"
Xinghe replied in a mild tone, "We have the Tong family's criminal evidence with us . When the time is ripe, we can capture them directly . "
"You plan to focus on military defenses to prevent a sudden attack from Country W and the rest?" the Vice President asked . "But the defenses could be arranged in a few days . "
Hwa Xia had always been a military strong country . To prevent invasion, they had a powerful army .
Xinghe shook her head . "Not the troops but the defense system . If I am not mistaken, He Lan Yuan will help them take down our military's internal system and probably our satellites as well . "
The crowd was stunned!
This was indeed a huge problem .
"You're right, we cannot afford to be too careful . No matter what they've planned, we mustn't overlook any possibility . We have to neutralize every possible threat!" the Vice President declared solemnly . Everyone else thought the same way . Dealing with this, no one dared to be careless . They did not think Xinghe was scaring them with her concerns .
"Miss Xia, you are really good at computer science . From your perspective, how do you propose we go about strengthening our technical defenses?" a general came forward to ask .
Xinghe stood up to pass everyone a stack of document . She then declared, "We have already come up with the solution for that . The document you have details the possible technology He Lan Yuan's group can come up with . "
